As far as I know:

1) There is no native Qt dark-theme on Windows
2) There is no Qt theme switcher on Windows
3) LyX does not support custom themes

So, I think Windows users are out of luck, dark-theme wise.

I have not understood what about the custom colors did not work with 2.4 
that used to work with 2.3.
