Remove Status Bar Carrier - Moto Z2 Force Questions & Answers

I wanna do what it says up there^
Or customize it.
This had been universally easy on Samsung devices and pre-marshmallow... But I've had no luck with any Xposed module yet. Tried the regulars, gravity box, wanam, firefds, x-blast, and a few moto-x modules.
My absolute last option will be to do a regex replacement for anything that says SPRINT but ughhh, that's like killing a squirrel with a 44 magnum.
Anybody able to point me to a more surgical method of this?
...(fear I might be stuck with heinous notification icons and carrier text in the bar until custom ROMs like RR hit the goop)

Notifications? Have you disabled the Sprint apps? I still have nav bar, but all notifications disappear with disabling all Sprint apps

Oh I meant just the color of the ticker icons on the status bar (which happens to be right next to status bar carrier label too... Damn white)

If you're talking about removing the carrier label you can do that from the settings of the phone

Flat style bar indicators will let you change the text, size and shape of literally every element of your status bar.

Sweet zombie Christ. So I can!! How dare you point out something so ludicrously obvious and make me look like a herpaderp!

P.S.: anyway cyan statusbar is really "too oldies"... :silly:

Okay. Took some finesse, but I got gravity box and FSI to play nice together. Also had to disable status bar carrier in settings to prevent doubling up.

I Tweeted at LevelUp Studio, asking them about this. They said, "technically it is not possible"... I haven't asked further, as an email would probably be the place to get the further explanation.

See that's what I thought at first too, assuming that whenever you have a notification icon you must also have a notification tied to it, and vice versa. Kinda stinks because on something like Elixir2 that gives me notification drop-down toggles, there has to be an icon in the bar at all times (you can set it to be transparent but it still takes up space).
But on an app like GrooVe IP, they can put a notification button in the bar indicating that you're signed into GrooVe IP, but it doesn't have a notification item when you pull down the bar. It is definitely possible!
Yeah, I would think it is too...
Using Tasker that icon is always there, though you can choose to hide it. How ever it still occupies a spot on the status bar, even it the icon is set to transparent. It does show in the notification bar pull down too. Seems like an odd thing to have it only one way...
---------- Post added at 02:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 PM ----------
Odd thing too, on DT's AOKP/4.0.4 hybrid from the Weather is displayed like BW does in the notification pull down, but no status bar icon (for temp or anything) is associated with it...gotta be possible.

[Q] Disable lockscreen notifications? Lollipop 5.0A

But I can't find it anymore, somehow.

Actually I found a new problem. Disabling the lockscreen notifications also removes them from the status bar, I don't want this. Can it be fixed so that they are in the status bar but don't pop up on the screen when locked?

Exactly! It seems it's all or nothing now. You either get them on the lockscreen and status bar or not at all. The more and more I use Lollipop, the more and more I dislike it. This is yet another reason. Seriously thinking of going back to KK, Xposed and GravityBox.
how to get this lock screen working on G3 20A? the current one just shows 2 notifications and everything else is just a icon.

i think you can't.... LG ruined lollipop with his crap
Think I am having similar issue. I used Heads Up application for notifications (which is good) however since 5.0 heads up still works, but on my pull down screen I also see a similar notification .. that although I have dismissed with heads up, the lollipop notification still exists. I have done hide notifications, but it still seems to be there
Am I just being thick?

[MOD][NMF26U/V] NavBar Tuner, Additional QS Tile Rows, NavBar DPI - TWRP Flashable

I have done some basic mods for the Pixel that have been well received, and @StickyEyez requested I do it for the Pixel XL as well. You can see my original post here https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel/themes/mod-navbar-tuner-additional-qa-tile-rows-t3522314
**I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGES TO YOUR DEVICE. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK**
**v1.0 2017.01.05**
This mod is based on the NMF26V update, but it should work on NMF26U as well. It may work on older versions, but I have no information regarding this. If you want to test on other versions, you should back up your original /system/framework/framework-res.apk and system/priv-app/SystemUIGoogle/SystemUIGoogle.apk
NMF26# increased the NavBar height to a ridiculous 48dpi, so I have added 4dpi step-downs to 32dpi.
I've also made changes to make the Statusbar slightly smaller at 20dpi (original is 24dpi).
Only install one of each mod at a time. The NavBar/Statusbar mode impacts framework-res.apk and System UI mods impact SystemUIGoogle.apk, so if you select multiple it'll just install the last one you selected.
The mods that can be applied are:
NavBar/StatusBar dpi
0dpi/0dpi
0dpi/20dpi
0dpi/24dpi
32dpi/24dpi
32dpi/20dpi
36dpi/24dpi
36dpi/20dpi
40dpi/24dpi
40dpi/20dpi
44dpi/24dpi
44dpi/20dpi
48dpi/20dpi
SystemUI Mods
NavBarUI Manager + Brightness
NavBarUI Manager + Brightness + 4 QS Tiles
NavBarUI Manager + Brightness + 4 QS Tiles + Battery Mod
Return to Stock
framework-res.apk
SystemUIGoogle.apk
Note, the 0dpi/0dpi mod is actually 0dpi/1dpi because if you set the statusbar to 0dpi you cannot pull it down while in apps. If applied to a standard setup, you will find that the tops of the clock show in the statusbar, and will not look good. But if you use a different launcher, I have been told this is not noticeable.
You can download the mod here Stranula_Full_Flash_v1.zip
To install you will need to have TWRP installed, then simply install the zip and follow the on screen menus.

I am starting the mod, but I don't have a Pixel XL, so I need a few people to volunteer to test it.
I am just starting the mods now, but they won't take long so if you can test it this morning, let me know, and I will PM you a link in a while

**UPDATE**
I am about to be on a plane for the rest of the day, so I've updated the original post. @Cbass15 has reported the installer and mods to be working, so hopefully it is good to go. He is also going to be putting up some screenshots soon.
Here is just a couple of screenshots...
The first picture is a picture of the 4QT, along with brightness adjuster removed and battery percent enabled
The picture with a Nav bar is 32/24
The picture without a Nav Bar is 0/20
Want to see anymore screenshots before you flash? Let me know,I'll hook you up with one. :good:
Any chance of adding the center clock mod?
I don't see much point in removing the brightness slider as it does not shrink the area it was in. Unless you literally don't want to accidentally touch it.

If you don't want to disable the brightness bar, then don't disable it. It is an option in the UI Tuner. You can toggle it easily.

Yeah, it's a toggle. I just find it unfortunate that it doesn't really shrink down.
Thanks for this package, BTW. I just did this manually myself yesterday because nobody had anything that would allow for the navbar tuner in 7.1.1...

Unfortunately, not from me. I don't have the time to invest in modding. I just happen to be on vacation and had some spare time to do this.
I've been waiting to root and install TWRP until we get xposed framework because I want to hide the nav bar and enable pie controls. I see with this mod that I can hide the nav bar. Are there any good apps or installs for pie control like the GravityBox module with Xposed? I would love something that works similar to the pie controls in GravityBox. I've tried stuff like LMT but it doesn't appear to be as smooth.

Do you need to have another app installed to replace the nav bar or no?

lol No, I'm talking about the shadow at the bottom not the icons. I guess the screenshot isn't showing my issue off very well.
To see the shadowing one must turn the brightness to the max. I don't know how to get rid of it. I know I don't have it but I am in Nougat. And not so many icons can be presented at once.

That said, I don't know how to fix it. Maybe try looking at some Xposed modules (you are running Marshmallow, right?)

As you can see I've hidden the nav bar. After 3 second the nav bar goes away. The app does not fill now of the screen. But there's a section to swipe up on to reveal the nav bar again. That's best I've found. See attached screen shots for examples.

@op don't mean to stray from original question of navigation bar. Just sharing.
GMD Auto hide Soft keys, but u need root
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmd.hidesoftkeys&hl=de
By setting the Display Size too small under Settings, the navbar can be smaller than default.
But I have another question, I'd like to use clear themes so the whole system UI is clear (not dark or black), but I'd like also whatever clear theme I use, to keep the navbar ALWAYS black, which isn't the case with all the clear themes I've tried.
Some apps follow the on screen app color to make the navbar the same color, but some apps such as xda labs, quickpic, imdb etc. just won't follow and therefore, the navbar remains white or clear (if a clear theme is applied).
I've tried quite a bunch of navbar apps from PlayStore, couldn't find one that would suit my needs, and I don't want to try Substratum app/themes on the G6, cause I've had some "bad" experiences on my previous phones.
So do you guys know if there's a way to mod this?
Thanks and have a nice day.
Interesting question, I'm with you on making the navigation bar (shorter I guess) does anybody know of a way to get fully immersive? I always liked our controls and having something on the screen I don't always need kinda bugs me a little
