"Hiding" the notch in stock rom, guide [root/Magisk] - Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion

I'm a big hater of the "Notch", so after a bit of search, finally found a way to hide the notch the same way it is possible in MIUI/EMUI systems (basically moving the notification bar down, and having a completely black line on top that hides the notch).
You need to have Magisk installed properly, then install Pix3lify (FULL) module. After reboot in the Settings->System->Developer options menu, under the display cutout option, the "Hide" option will be available (it's not present on the stock rom witouth pix3lify module).

I can't
I have pixel experience rom and I'm not able to doing this

TabletMetrics
Xstana (theme Status Bar and Home Keys)

Unfortunately NotifyClean does not work
Still working down the repository list, add more as confirmed working :good:
Also zoom for instagram works. After i restarted my phone it optimized my apps or so it said but only did that once for me. Works fine for me.

I've never really messed around with Xposed. Sorry if my question is dumb but, where do you get the modules? Are they within the app? Is this where you get the app?

Once the xposed installer app installed, look under Download for modules

Update Xposed from v71 to v72 for Verizon LG G4
Verizon LG G4 VS986 confirmed working with xposed-v72-sdk22-arm64.zip upgrade(Ram is better,battery drain is less)
1)Wipe cache on start
2)Start os
3)If Flashfire doesn't open,change date in the phone settings to earlier than 8.30.15
4)Follow instructions for v71 installation,but instead of v71.zip use uninstaller for xposed (xposed-uninstaller-20150831-arm64).Do not uninstall previous version of Xposed which was installed from xposed-v71-sdk22-arm64-by-romracer-20150816 with regular phone means.
5)do not check auto-mount,touch upper right sign and the main page of Flashfire opens
6)Flash (at the very bottom of the screen) uninstaller (all necessary files should be placed on the root of Internal Storage) and wait 10 minutes +,Loading lines appear then another 10 minutes,the phone reboots itself.
7)repeat procedure with Flashfire with zip file xposed-v72-sdk22-arm64
8)Long story now,approximately half an hour of dark screen(do not touch the phone and patiently wait)
9)phone reboots itself,wait and don't worry it'll work with updated Xposed Framework v72,all modules,that have been there before the upgrade,will be there working and activated,no need to reset Xposed Installer_3.0_alpha4.apk
P.S. Make sure the phone has enough charge and not connected to the computer and I assume that you alredy installed this: xposed-v71-sdk22-arm64-by-romracer-20150816.If not,then follow all the instructions from Romracer for v71 file,but
1)use v72 instead
2)Flashfire will not work unless you change the date in the phone settings(you'll correct this easily later)
3)And you will have to wait longer this time(remember,approximately half an hour of dark screen with the impression that the phone is dead,but no worry,just wait and do nothing,cause that's the way it's resetting).Good luck!
It is now at V73. Just flashed on top of the current version and works fine.

NotifyClean works perfectly for me.
Amplify works great on v74 as well.
Anyone have problems using flashfire to flash the 8/31 uninstaller to uninstall v74 XPosed?

I would like to use CoolTool to display clock and battery info (along with other stuff) but I want to disable the stock clock, battery and network stats on status bar so its not as cluttered. So far wanam doesnt work, xui hasn't worked and SB Icon Hider all don't work.
I'm also trying to figure out how to have cool tool put the status on the right instead of the left overlayed on notifications. Anyone have any idea's?

Disabling "Enlarge first row" at OxygenOS 3.2.8

Recently I've moved from CM13 to the stock OxygenOS (3.2.8, latest MM based), and so far I don't miss (so much) most of the missing functions as far as they might be achieved with Xposed modules. But I still can't get rid off one annoying thing - enlarged first row in Quick Settings panel.
- There's no way to disable it in OxygenOS itself (at least I didn't found that option)
- Styling Quick Settings with "Android N-ify" (both v0.2 from Xposed repo and latest build from Jenkins) is way to bugged with this non-AOSP ROM
- Disabling "Dual Mode" for tiles in GravityBox doesn't change anything
- Disabling "Enlarge first row" option in "Qs X tiles per row" module also doesn't work
Of course I've tried all of the above separately, with many tries and reboots.
If anyone of you know a solution for this just let me know. Thank you in advance!

couldn't you simply tick it off? Pull out quick settings, click edit title, swipe right, tick enlarge first row

Thank you for your reply. Currently I'm using OOS 4, but as I remeber at OOS 3 there wasn't such an option "like enlarge first row", so there was no way to disable it.

[Help] Is there anyway to change height of status bar for notch device?

I've recently installed the Phh-Treble ROM on the Essential Phone but the status bar doesn't fit with the notch
Is there anyway to change the height of the status bar?
Did you try changing the display size?

Until I sold the PH-1, I used stock rom instead of any others Treble rom because I couldn't change the status bar height

I created a custom overlay to fix it. Extract the zip, and move the file and folder to /vendor/overlay with your favorite root explorer (I use MiXplorer)
After that reboot, enable developer options, go to developer options, and enable display cutout
It also enables adaptive brightness

The "proper" way to do it (i.e. if you want it to be integreated in GSIs), is doing a "GSI overlay":
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...guide-how-to-make-gsis-overlay-file-t3878974/
The specific values for status bar height are litteraly called status_bar_height (and _portrait and _landscape)
You'll want to define the notch layout also for apps to pick it up.
Here is an example:
https://github.com/phhusson/vendor_hardware_overlay/blob/master/OnePlus/OP6/res/values/notch.xml

Hey phhusson, on a related note - are GSI overlays integrated into the system.img, or do I have to add it manually somehow? (I ask because I can see a ASUS Zenfone 5 overlay in the github repo, but none of the GSIs I tried seemed to respect the notch.)

System UI Colors/Accent

Does anyone have any idea his to change the System UI color or accent because the Teal is very ugly. I hope there is a method without root because I'm not trying to lose OTA's.
I used Substratum X Andromeda via ADB enabled and now since it isn't allowed with Android Pie I can't edit anything without root.
Any ideas anyone? :crying: :highfive:
Interested
In Oreo it is possible by installing the apk of the color you want. When done that, it enables "Themes" in "Screen" in "Settings"
Google it, I found them in Mi A1 sub

Can you elaborate a little more? I googled android oreo color apk - all I found was this thread...closed for ripping/distributuing substratum themes.

This magisk module is working on A2 lite pie
Pix3lify from magisk also works like a charm, it even makes everything rounder just like it is on Pixel devices and roms.

Hey everyone! I have found something you will be interested in. If you have root you can buy and install "Swift Installer - Themes & Color Engine" you use magisk and root to apply overlays and you can choose your notification tool area transparency, your full device accent, and better yet it supports apps like Snapchat, GApps (Google Apps), Instagram, Spotify and more I will put the list of apps below!
List of apps your theme will get applied to: https://goo.gl/gS84kK
Google Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brit.swiftinstaller
I have been using this ever since it released its like their own Substratum Engine but awesome and for Pie users

Move clock to the right on OxygenOS 10?

Is it possible to move the clock in the status bar to the right with OxygenOS 10? this is an option on LineageOS, however as far as I can tell i'm guessing its not possible without a custom rom.

I bet there are some substratum themes that can do that. But dont ask me which.
You can use gravity box. I would recommend using it with tai chi in magisk mode to save getting errors with safety net as I've never seen that trip it but other xposed apps can in certain updates and under setups within their apps.
Gravity box android 10
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-gravitybox-v10-0-0-beta-1-android-10-t3974497
Tai chi latest magisk module
https://taichi.lanzous.com/id2rh4d
Tai chi latest app to use with module
https://taichi.lanzous.com/ic6xl1i
Install tai chi magisk module and apk with gravity box apk then reboot. Once restarted open tai chi app and select system UI and any other parts of android you want the mod to work with then select module and enable gravity box. Restart again and select what features you want in gravity box app... Your desired feature is in status bar tweaks.
