How to get a percentage to appear instead of the default? - Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was wondering how to make the battery percent show up vs the default. I have looked all through the settings and have not found it. Starting to think it is not possible..

Only way to do it is to mod the source code or root it and install gravity box.

Through system tuner. Turn on developer settings, pull down the notification shade, long press the gear icon at the top until is starts spinning. Go back to settings and in system tuner you can change a few things in there.

power toggles works great except for 2 things...

1. No way to set the brightness to 0%.. why won't it go below 10%?
2. GPS toggle brings up location services menu instead of actually toggling the GPS on.
Anyone have a solution to either?
You can always use an app to get those toggles or just wait for the custom ROMS.

Correct me if I'm wrong but 0% means no brightness at all......
So how the hell are u gonna bring it back up when u can't see a thing?

Not sure if it's zero but installed power widget goes much darker than power toggle does
Make power toggles a system app with titanium backup, then pressing the gps icon will turn it on rather than take you to the location access screen.

Just move /data/app/com.painless.pc-1.apk to /system/app/com.painless.pc-1.apk , chmod 644 /system/app/com.painless.pc-1.apk and reboot.
Need root
Thanks!
I would VERY much like to have no icon rather an an invisible one. The blank space seems off. Any possible edits there?
There has to be a way to get rid of the icon. In the description of the app, he mentioned that it can't because of the api but extended controls removes it from notification but when you enable notification controls, a widget is still left on the screen. Which this one has an option to remove that.

The GPS thing is general. After 3.0 update no app is allowed to change GPS state so you need a work around. Tasker can't change GPS states either. Either do it manually, or install secure settings. Needs root.

Yes ofc as u can see in the screenshot there is a huge space between the battery status and the message notification. That is because of power toggles. I choose transparent but the space is still there, how do I move that space? The creator of the app said it cant be done but I am quite sure someone has done it before...so please help me out

has nothing to do with gps mate
fyi an update a few weeks back fixed the GPS on/off location services bug.
still no way to set the minimum brightness below 10 however.
i have to go into the brightness settings and manually move it lower if i want the screen to be dimmer.
that still bugs me.

Power Toggles coupled with Lux is a pretty good combo.

Setting the notification priority to 1 instead of 5 and restarting the app removes the icon. The toggles can't be pinned to top however.

Paranoid Android ROM-how do I change battery status to display percentage?

In Cyanogenmod I could display a percentage instead of the filled bar for the battery status, but I can't find a similar option in PA. Any tips?
Also, is there a way to add the menu button permanently to the bottom bar? It bothers me on the homescreen to have to click the lines on the top.

Have you looked in settings > battery to see if its there. That's how it is in omni, might be the same.

Can't get battery % to display with 7.1.1 update

I tried to hold the settings button to bring up the hidden menu to display the battery % in the status bar and it doesn't seem to be working. Has anyone figured out how to display the battery % in the status bar with the latest update?
Did you open settings and scroll down and go to the "system ui tuner"?
Did you hold the settings button in the quick settings pull down?
It worked for me. I tried after reading your attempt.

Battery percentage on the notification panel

Hi everyone, just got LG G7 from tmobile. I am confused, almost on every picture on the internet I see battery percentage in the top right corner of the screen. In my case in order for me to see battery % I need to pull down the notification panel. Is there a way to fix that? I already went to battery settings and switched on the option to show the battery % in notifications panel. Please help.

I was about to post the same question so I'm looking for the answer too...
If you go into Settings and then Battery, there is a toggle that says "Battery Percentage on status bar".

Ok, I was just messing with it and you are right. It will never show it in the notch but it toggles that option in the notification drop down.
I love the phone, but seriously, what is the point of calling this a second screen if you still have to pull down the notification bar to see the icons?
I hope they add an option for always show icons....

Hmm, that is kind of odd. I wonder the reasoning for the bug on T-Mobile version?
Oh you know what, he's right. I been too busy gaming to realize it shows all the time outside of games.
Well as you can see in the screenshot below, it does not show up on the T-Mobile version of the G7

I have T-Mobile variant and it does show on mine. Did you update the device?
I'm on T-Mobile, and it's showing just fine for me, no pull-down required. Toggling "Battery percentage on status bar" in Settings | Battery toggles it off and on (for me, anyway).
I did a factory reset and now I have the percentage in the notification bar. Perhaps it a bug??
Has to do with display size. Turn it all the way down.
Go to:
Settings
Display

You need to enable two things for this to work.
Go into Settings and then Battery and turn on "Battery percentage on status bar". \
You also need to select Standard from New Second Screen settings.

I have both set as you do and it still does not show. I am on to too
Ok tried everything. The only solution that works is to go to display settings and move the slider all the way to the left, the smallest size. Nothing else will work.

Yes this is the only solution that seems to work, good job guys
Now the question is, how do you make display size bigger without loosing the battery % in the notification panel? ?

Custom Rom.

Question No status bar in display settings?

I would like to add the seconds to the clock on my status bar and the way I do old phone is settings>display>status bar, but there is status bar settings in the display settings? Any other way to add seconds to the clock on the status bar?
Going to clock app and settings does not help.
You'll probably have to root and wait for a root solution that would work with the Pixel 6 Pro. There's some chance you'd be able to do it without root, but not much. There's an app in the Play Store called SystemUI Tuner. At minimum it would likely require some work with Google's Platform Tools (ADB, etc) unless it just flat out requires root to enable that.
And thanks for reminding me, I meant to find out for myself what I can do with the SystemUI Tuner on the 6 Pro before I root.
I'll be looking for "seconds" on resolution as well....

I just confirmed that it seems to me that ADB isn't enough to get SystemUI Tuner working at all. It is or used to be for some other apps that had more limited capability, but likely to get seconds would need root no matter what.

Couldn't get it to work either but I contacted Zachary Wander on the apps XDA thread and asked if it was an Android 12 issue or a Pixel issue, no reply yet. Installed Nap Time by Francisco Franco and it works fine after the adb commands.

Will try Nap Time by "Developer Guru" Franco!
Solved
Download system UI tuner app in store, activate seconds and uninstall!
Worked.
