I just stumbled across how to modify the order of the status bar icons on the top right corner (clock, wifi, cdma, gps, etc). This is something that has eluded me for a while, and I was curious to figure it out. Not sure if anyone else has done this yet or not.
Is there any value in pursuing this further, in order to figure out a way to automate the process, so that the user can choose their order, perhaps via an app?
Worse case scenario, it can already be done manually, but it is not very custom / repeatable, w/o modding each users desired order one at a time, which isn't incredibly interesting to me .
hasn't ever crossed my mind as something i'd like to be able to do.
Yeah, that's why I wanted to check. To get a gauge whether this is something worth pursuing. I know I've been asked about this back in the Hero days, but other than just being able to do it, not sure the practical application / value...
You know -- I'm not sure if it's within the same realm, but an application that could turn them off and on would be nice. I know certain ones can be turned off in AOSP/CM.
A real world situation: I'm using a Sense ROM, which has the signal (not differentiating between 1x and 3G), time, battery, etc. in the status bar. If I use a clock widget with battery, I no longer need the battery indicator or the time for that matter. I actually use Real Signal to check my data signal strength and whether or not I have an EVDO connection. Both the clock widget and Real Signal eliminate my need for the same icons on the status bar. What's the sense of having widgets or other notifications just to show information that's already in the status bar?
My 2 cents, at least. I also appreciate all of the mods and development you've done for us EVO users, by the way!

I was thinking this same thought. Such an app would be great in instances where the user would use clock and battery widgets and not need it on the bar. On the other side, if a user decides to get rid of their widgets it would be great to be able to get the battery and clock back on the bar through an app rather than hardcoding the smali files.
I think this idea has potentials. Jschisurf I vote yay on this.
If you could arrange and toggle yes but it doesn't make sense to have you do all that work just to be able to swap them around

This is unrelated to toggle, rather, status bar only.
In terms of turning various icons on/off in the status bar, that is a bit more of a challenge, as each icon is controlled for display in very different places throughout the services.jar file.
Oh well, this will be another one of those mods I keep to myself for fun
I would rock it myself because I dig your work, but I am selfish like that haha
Seeing as how some were concerned with burn-in/didn't want the status bar I'm releasing a first step towards it.
The status bar has been removed, however apps don't seem to reclaim it. I'll be working on this tonight/tomorrow and post any updates on it.
This is for Bigxie's v1 version of JB.
Update:
Adding a fullscreen version that permanently remains fullscreen after 2-3 force closes (There's only a few but they stop after a minute or two and I've yet to have any issues with anything else though I haven't extensively tested it).

one questions: are only the icons removed or the hole status bar includig the black background?
the status bar doesn't burn in. the rest of the screen just loses brightness, whereas the status bar is black and doen't emit light. the oleds in this section and in the softbutton-section don't lose brightness because they aren't used that much. that's crappy, cause it is pretty good visible after just a couple of months of usage.

The whole status bar is gone, you can't even slide it down or anything. Also could you elaborate on the losing brightness part please?
Also if anyone else has ideas I'm willing to try them. Causing the SystemUI to crash it enters the correct full screen for a min or two, but that isn't permanent nor ideal.
especially the blue subpixels lose brightness the older they get. entering fullscreen mode, let's say watching a movie, shows, that the status bar and onscreen buttons area are more blue than the rest of the screen. this is because these areas weren't used that much.
samoled is very crappy when it comes to longevity. especially for power users it's really bullsh... i had it on every samsung samoled so far. only omnia 7 with windows phone doesn't show these "burned icons" because it's mostly running in full screen, except you touch the status bar, then the icons pop in.
Lol sorry to say but after reading this thread ... I'm just as confused as the box boy in your phones background... =\ not going to try this one...

I've seen a couple of requests like that one. Notifierpro apparently lets you (I've never tried it) and my curiosity as to how to actually remove the status bar lead me to this. (I'm not so worried about the burn in, and will leave my status bar there, I just know a couple of people seemed to want it gone to remove burn in)
Why not hide it with Nova/Apex launcher?

Because it will come back whenever you go into any other app. I don't care for this mod, but can see its use for some.

I might be able to make an app do it, to swap out the SystemUI.apk when toggled. idk if you can do that with the phone running though.
hi matt
just installed your Full Screen mod
and my Gnex is never starting (stays on bootloop)
I have the Jelly Belly V2 ROM
any idea ?

Probably isn't compatible with Jelly Belly V2.
I've only tested it on bigxie's v1
strange as it it is system.apk or system UI if I'm right , so must be the same on JB ROMs
Hello,
I'm novice on Zooper Widget and I try to configure it.
I want to have the bitmap of a wifi signal when its on. So I put an icon of a wifi signal and I go to advanced paremeters and choose #NWSTATE#.
The problem is that when the wifi is off a want to have an oder icon or that the wifi icon I choose disapear. Its possible to do that and how ?
Thank you for your help guys.
I know what you want to do is possible because there is a widget for Zooper on Google Play that does it. The wifi and signal icons are embedded in it so they are hard to use independently, but they prove its possible. Its called camera bar or something like that...
You can eliminate all the other elements from that 4x2 widget and expand just the signal icons.
If that isn't a solution try these two alternatives....
I have mine set up to display the text WIFI, HSPA(or whatever the connection type is for mobile data), or nothing if no data is present.
I used this equation. (wifi is dominant. It shows WIFI if there is wifi and mobile data)
$#NWSTATE#>0?WiFi$$#NDATAON#>#NWSTATE#Y?#NCCONN#$
Text and bitmaps are set up different, buy maybe this can help you figure out the bitmap answer. Or just switch to using words instead of icons and the above equation is your answer.
I also used the progress bar feature to create a cell signal bars thing.( Though each bar is the same height.) You could make something like that instead of using an icon and have the color for unused bars be clear so they are invisible.
Thank you man. I Willie try this.

Just one more question I found an Icon for the wifi signal and for the mobile data I use the text (HSPA, EDGE, Etc.). I have to put the equation in each ? Or just in Wifi or Mobile data ?
Thanks

Here is the answer I think : http://www.zooper.org/wp/old/topic/progress-bar-wifi-and-3g-and-text-question
hello? is this thread dead already?

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?
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)

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.

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.
