Is there a way to edit the width of the top and bottom bar so there is more room on the screen? Also how do I remove the battery indicator on the top bar? Any help would be great, thank you.
Anyone have a cab to remove the start bar and bottom bar from the screen?
DO a search for no top curtain and no bottom curtain
what about for the taskbar, not the curtains
One of the "features" in the new kitkat is that the status bar at the top no longer has a black background, so I can't see the icons very well. Is there a way to change it back so it has a black background? Currently I keep pressing the menu button which makes the status bar more visible, which is very annoying!
I think i'm spoiled by custom roms.
Is there an easy way to show the battery percentage in the status bar at the top of the screen? (i can't remember if this is called status bar or notification bar but its where the clock and notification icons show up)
Yes, pull down notification tray and long click (or press several clicks - can't remember) on settings icon. It will add system ui tuner to your settings menu. There you can add battery percentage icon to inside the battery icon
Yes. Pull down quick settings and hold the settings icon for a few seconds then release it. If you scroll down to the bottom of your settings page you should now have a section named 'System UI Tuner' where you can do this.
What an awesome tip! I had no idea about "System UI Tuner". Thanks guys!
Thanks for this tip ....
On Oreo this option is also found under battery settings.
On Nougat battery text was inside the icon, on Oreo it's on the left side and to my eye a bit bigger than clock. I couldn't stand this design flaw, but fortunately Gravity box can fix it and show text inside the icon again or on the right side and with smaller font.
With miui9 u can set up the phone that waking the phone would show any notification icons in the status bar without having to unlock the phone.
Now with miui 10, it won't show the icons in the status bar. Instead just the big box like icons on the middle of the screen. Attached screen shot explains my issue. Can anyone help.?
