Question: Status Bar Customization Tool in Android P v10.0.2.0 - Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers

********

Hello,
it is really annoying
I have not found a suitable app to modify the status bar yet.
You can, however, set the DPI setting (minimum width) higher in the developer options.
So everything gets smaller and it fits more in the status bar.

Hi guys,
I just updated my Mi A2 Lite to the latest Android P version (v10.0.2.0) from Android Oreo.
At the end so far so good, but... for my OCD I have a very annoying issue.
It's a bit hard to explain that, but let's try:
In my status bar, by default, I have: Battery + %, 2 SIM Signals + WiFi + Do Not Disturb
In Oreo all good, but apparently Pie added the WiFi up/down network activities "arrow" and every time those arrows come out, basically auto hide my "Do Not Disturb" icon and replace with a small dot.
You can see it inside my 2 screenshot.
As I said, this is for me it's super annoying because my eyes are distract from the status bar that keep changing every seconds.
First of all, that happen to you guys? And doesn't annoying you?
I tried to use UI Tuner, but it seems working only with few icons, not with WiFi icon.
Do you know some tool (root) that can remove maybe the 2nd sim signal? Or maybe remove the network activities.
No idea... I just want my Oreo status bat back
Any idea?
Really appreciated and thanks!

Until then, only with the user interface tuner. I do not know anything that works with root.
If you deactivate the percentage of the battery is already gaining space and if the do not disturb is disabled, you will gain more space yet.

Use "UI Tuner Launcher"
You can download it from Play Store

Same problem for me, biggest grip with Pie

Has anyone find its solution ?
Because i noticed this after upgrading to pie (on oreo the dual sim signal indicator stack one over another)
Can't we mod or just have like oreo?

I can get battery percentage with System UI tuner (Nova launcher), but...hehe...I can see now %
But alarm icon, wifi/data icon and 1st SIM icon gone under little dot.
This is really frustrating.
And 1 more thing after PIE upgrading: there is no alarm icon and time on lock screen (when alarm is on).
Pie it's not an upgrade...for me look like downgrade.
EDIT: all fine now with lock screen...by itself somehow

Having the same problem. Statusbar icons dis- and reappearing every few seconds, why someone thought this is a good design choice is beyond my understanding.
Has someone found a solution yet?

Disable Battery AND Clock in Title Bar

Does anybody know a trick to disable the battery status? I want neither the clock nor the Battery symbol.
Matthias
settings->today->items-> un check them!
No no no, I know what he means, I want to get rid off them too. The top bar, I would like to only see a clock instead of those symbols!!!
Requires a registry tweak but an easy way to do it is via this app - advance config.
If you've got a home cooked ROM it might already be installed otherwise grab it from this thread
Page 2 has settings for the top/start bar.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317070
that´s what i am searching for, but the tweak doesn´t work correct. it disturbs the antenna symbol, it cuts one half.
I got the same issue? Any solutions?

i use cerberus (app) and its taking the GPS location every 5 sec (yes i want every 5 sec) and i don't want that if some one "found" my phone to see that the GPS icon is working ...

Now it makes sense..not sure if there's a xposed tweak maybe..the easiest way ask a theme developer if he can create you a system ui with transparent GPS symbol..that is possible

Hide icons of running apps on the status bar?

Hide icons of running apps on the status bar? Is it possible to do this without rooting? I hate having to look at the spotify icon / whatsapp desktop and other apps icons on my status bar all the time, it looks so cluttered , I KNOW spotify it's running since the music is playing google, I'm not that stupid to know it's running in the background , if I want to look at my notifications, let's say I get an email, I'll slide down the notification bar , I don't need notifications being thrown at me all the time...

Does long pressing the notification in question not allow you to shut it off? Or am I misunderstanding your interpretation?
Press and hold the Settings icon Quick Settings for a while. You'll see a new section System UI Tuner, from. There you can turn on or off icon in the status bar area. You'll also now notice a wrench next to your settings icon in your quick setting area.
I hope this is what you're referring to.
You can also swipe right slowly and it will reveal a settings icon, tap there and turn off notification from just that app

If you do that you then silence all the notifications for that app , don't get me wrong I don't want to eliminate the notifications , I just want to eliminate the icons on the status bar .
Take a look at the picture I uploaded , see how the bar gets crowded with all those app icons from Spotify , the new York times apps etc ?
For what you're wanting, you'll need root.

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".
---------- Post added at 21:31 ---------- Previous post was at 20:51 ----------
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:

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? ?

how to get more icons in the status bar

I wonder how to get more icons in the status bar. The place is there, but only the left time is shown and the right only this two icons.
(If you're willing to root...) I've installed GravityBox and disabled the clock (or move it to the center, it hides under the notch)... At least I have 3~4 icons (3 icons + the dot if more than 4 notifications are there)
The clock can be hidden without root using systemui tuner. Some other icons can also be hidden (eg. I hide the alarm indicator since I always have an alarm set)
https://android.gadgethacks.com/how...roid-9-0-pie-remove-status-bar-icons-0186364/
I probably wrote it wrong,but my problem is that I don't see more than 2 icons on the right.I don't have root.
And this application does not help

Hello Tramin,
Good Day !
Dear Have You Tried To Reduce Screen Resolution Size ? I Mean Go In Developer Options => Smallest Width (Around 448 dp). It Will Reduce Your Screen Resolution Size And You Can Get More Space In Notification Bar.
Greetings...
Thanks,
MUHAMMAD Asif Qasim
It can definitely fit more than 2. I can sometimes get 5 if they're narrow or overlap. The traffic arrows are the worst.
@aasiaasi:No change, what's wrong with my phone??

Probably because of the notch, this phone shows less icons by default. Eg. Bluetooth only shows when connected. My previous phone showed more icons by default but it had no notch and ran marshmallow.
To make more icons appear...
Connect a Bluetooth device.
Plug in headphones.
Set an alarm.
Put the phone on silent/vibrate or do not disturb.
Be on 4g while WiFi is available but needs sign in (both WiFi and 4g icons display).
Re enable battery icon.
Run Google maps.
Run a hotspot.
Is that what you mean?
Thanks, it's probably it.But it's not entirely correct,because bluetooth is on all the time and the icon is not visible.

The icon only shows if something is connected to Bluetooth.
Oh,thanks

Hi
I thought xposed is not available for pie?? How did you manage to run GravityBox? Pls help. Thanks

Regular xposed is not available. EdXposed runs on pie. It's a new thing that tries to be compatible with Xposed. Many modules are not compatible. Gravity box is.
I strongly recommend having mm (magisk manager) setup before playing with EdXposed because bootloops are fairly common and mm from twrp let's you turn off EdXposed so you can boot again. Then you can fix the module/setting that caused a problem.
