How do I get specific apps to use the full screen display - Essential Phone Questions & Answers

Some apps don't use the entire display. With some apps, I want it to use the whole display while in others I don't. So how do I do that? Also in another form, I read that you use the adb. So I got that but when I run adb devices I don't see my phone. Also my phone is charging, but I'm not able to see the phone on my file explorer either.
Also, I am just 11 years old, so I don't really understand this kind of stuff. So it would be much loved if you guys can explain this in basic terms.

Yes I tried that.... But the phone is not being recognized on my PC.

You have to go download the adb drivers from Google. And then enable developer options on your phone as well.

They're not specific to essential. It's the Google drivers. My advice to you is to start researching this stuff before you begin utilizing adb or any other commands. At this point, we don't even have the stock images so if you screw something up you're SOL right now....

Use Minimal ADB and Fastboot. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Enable USB Debugging from developer options in your Android settings.
Connect usb cable.
Press yes on the phone.
Type:
adb shell settings put global ESSENTIAL_LAYOUT_WHITELIST "*"

Oh ok. So I understand how to get the drivers. So now I have to open the adb shell settings put global ESSENTIAL_LAYOUT_WHITELIST. But will that allow all the apps to use the full display?

You need the put in the "*" aftewards, because it's a white list the astrisk signifies "Everything" also, it's called a wildcard.
the full command should look like this:
adb shell
settings put global ESSENTIAL_LAYOUT_WHITELIST "*"

Ok guys, so I tried the command. While it has changed and allows some apps to use the entire display. Other apps still have a black bar on the top of the app... How do I remove that bar?

Yes so I tried that... but some apps still have a black bar on the top of the screen...
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

That will likely be something the devs of the apps have to do as the screen ratio is a bit different than what they built the apps for. The best way I can think to describe it is like with movies. If you have a 4:3 ratio show playing on a 16:9 ratio the you're still gonna have the bars. But if you have a movie that can support 16:9 you'll have full screen coverage.

So is it possible to "Stretch the app" to use the entire display?

Very few game will likely ever work for this. The resolution and assets are typically not designed to scale to different aspect ratios like this phone has. Even the LG G6 and Galaxy S8 just crop off the edges of games when they make them fit on the display fuilly.

*Off topic*
Just wanted to say reading this thread and the fact that no one jumped down his throat for asking questions and helped him through the steps reminds me of xda back in the day. And slight restored my faith in humanity. Good jobs mofos ✌??

this is what some apps look like when you use the whitelist editor and hide the navbar simultaneously. youtube and google play movies look like this when you do both.
it looks like your game, by default, hides the navbar. have you tried using the whitelist editor app do nothing to the status bar and unhide the navbar?

I don't understand. What do your mean by whitelist editor app... What is that?

try using the app to not take advantage of the status bar by unchecking it. then override the default setting off your game by de-selecting the box to show the navbar. seems like it would be better to have a navbar than the black bar up top.

Thanks the app works for some apps. However, for most of my video games, there is still a black bar. Like I asked above... is it possible to get the app to stretch to the entire phone.

Could you please list the steps or the settings needed to modify the home screen to rotate. I have spent countless hours trying to configure this and while I can get the screen to rotate it will not rotate properly without either cutting off the text under the apps or showing an additional portion of the adjoining screen. It also will not scroll from screen to screen properly either.
Any help you could provide would be so greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Root your device
Install Tweaksbox
Inside Tweaksbox, go to "LG Launcher Tweaks" and check "Enable LG Launcher's hidden settings"
Restart phone
Go to Home Screen Settings
You will see at the bottom in bold "Hidden Settings"
Uncheck "FEATURE_DEFAULT_PORTRAITVIEWONLY"
Uncheck "FEATURE_USE_PORTRAIT_ONLY"
Check "FEATURE_USE_ROTATE_LAYOUT"
Check "FEATURE_RESIZING_AND_MAKE_CENTER_Y_WALLPAPER_ON_LANDSCAPE"
I believe that does it right away, but you may have to restart your phone again.

I was simply replying to my own posting where I couldn't remember how I managed to rotate the Home Screens.
I remembered in the end and again answered in reply to both my own statement and being informed I had to root.
There are ton of apps out there that will force your phone to rotate. I use one called alternate rotation control. You can make any app or your any home screen rotate.

Huawei MediaPad M3 Chrome running in phone mode?!

Hi all,
yesterday I finally got my M3 a
I just have got 1 problem I seem not able to fix:
Chrome always seems to think the tablet is a phone... So it runs in phone layout instead of tablet layout
Is there a way to fix it?
(I can't post links since I have less than 10 posts... but you can just google for "chrome tabs phone layout", go to picture search mode.
--> the first picture shows my layout on the left... and the one it should use on the right.)
Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad english.

Sorry perhaps I did not describe the problem clearly enough:
It's not my problem to get the desktop version of a homepage getting opened.
The problem is, like on your picture, chrome not showing all tabs on top of the screen (like in the desktop version of chrome or on most tablets like my old nexus7 2013), but to "hide" them behind this little tab icon (showning "3" on your picture) in the right upper corner.
It's like on this picture... It should look like the part on the right side.
(Just replace the three XXX with a "." / dot)
cdn.ilovefreesoftwareXXXcom/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Chrome-Phone-Layout-vs-Tablet-Layout.png
Edit:
Okay I got a solution. It's pretty simple.
Via ADB:
adb devices (to check if devices connected)
setting density to 391 (or less) via: adb shell wm density 391
--> Tadaa tablet mode in chrome

Also on the predefined mode, the tabs are not working... like chrome is confused.
I filed a bug on Chrome for that too. but maybe chrome needs to include this device on tablet side of the moon.
I managed to force it into tablet mode (thx to nospherato) but I never had a homepage button.
The adb shell density command does not work on my M3. What could I be doing wrong?
hi flavio,
you took these steps?
1) activated the developer menu
2) activated the usb debug mode
3) connected pc+m3 ("adb devices" should not show "not authorized")
4) typed
adb shell wm density 391
?
(btw on my windows shell I had to use adb.exe instead of adb command... damn win10)
You should at once see the screen getting modified.

I did all these steps before but it never got it working.
Somehow I did get it to work now (set it to 320) but I still don't know what I did differently.
And it reverts back to 440 after a reboot. Is that normal?
Yes it is normal it gets reset after a reboot... Also if you change your resolution (power save, lower resolution) it gets reset.
I think you can only get it working permanently if your device is rooted.
Btw: If you use the normal resolution chrome starts to work in tablet mode @391 density.
If you want to use the battery saving mode (1200x1920), it starts at 293. (I prefer this one, as the quick actions do not get messed up here.)
Thanks for the help @nospherato & @Flavio.
I had the same issue with the Mediapad M3. Just got this today and having Chrome in phone mode and not table mode is a big drawback.
I could not even switch between tabs (hitting the square with the number of tabs in it did not show the list of open tabs to close it).
What worked for me was:
adb shell wm density 320
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This immediately switched Chrome to show the row of tabs at the top and allowed me to close them as well.
Thanks XDA community.
The strange thing is that when you switch back to 400 DPI Chrome stays in tablet mode, i.e. with the tabs above the address bar.
At least in some regions Huawei released an update which should add the option to remove the on-screen navigation and fix the Chrome problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69664225&postcount=14

357 or higher - The same Problems.

Is there a way to permanently fix the tabs and user agent from phone mode? I can't close tabs and swiping to switch them is annoying.
If I do adb do I have to redo it every reboot if my only desire is having tabs work? I don't even have my favourites menu or reload buttons.
@Sean09
Well as I know the only other way is to root your device and use expose framework. There is a plugin where you can set things like that for your apps.
If you do not want to root your device, you will at least have to wait for an ota update from huawei.
(If I got it right, this problem does not exist in newer [thai/chinese] versions... but until now, no huawei support could/wanted to tell me if or when eu pads get an update...)
I wonder if we can flash the other firmware that has already had an update made available to it - I assume they'll get updates quicker than we will in the USA as well.

Battery Percentage IN the battery

Is this possible with the S8?
I used to have a S6 before this one, and it was a default setting, but somehow I cannot find it on the S8.
If this is not possible with a default setting, are the apps that can fix this without "root" access?

I know what you mean mate.
But this is ASIDE the battery icon. I would like it to be inside into the the battery like the edge, without root. I dont like to waste space there, Samsung got the hint on the S6, I wonder they threw that away. Regardless I want it back, even when I need to get back to rooting.
Any advice anyone?

That app is a beta and would not allow my phone to turn off while on a Bluetooth phone call in my car. It would turn off but the turn right back on... Yrmv
So.. ok. I guess its not possible to replace the icon there.
Then.. I root the Phone, what are my options then?

There is an app called battery overlay percent, let you keep the percentage anywhere on the status bar, even inside battery. You can adjust size and colors etc. I kept it on the empty space on edge, but its highly unstable for samsung. It occasionally drifts here and there

Finally screen aligned to notch

Hi all, simply changing the dpi value through the developer options I finally managed to have the screen aligned to the notch. Just find the "minimum width" item in the developer menu and change the value from 392 to 449 (now I've set it to 430 and "text size & resizing" to XL, seems much better)
Smaller icons but finally full screen ...
Hi. I changed the value but it has stayed the same. No changes in the display size either. Am I doing anything wrong?

hi, I don't know why it didn't work for you.
I didn't do anything else except what I wrote above, as soon as I write the new value and confirm it the screen immediately changes its size.
I'm on Miui 10 developer.
Now I set the value at 430 dpi because it seems more balanced.

I tried rebooting several times but to no effect. I'm running 10.0.5.0 Global. Maybe there's a bug. Thanks anyway.
I'm sorry, I'm on 8.12.27 dev and don't know if global stable works in a different way.
I forgot to say that this thing, of course, works for those who want to hide the notch and not lose that part of the screen that remains black under it.
I hope the developers understand that that lost space makes no sense, as it makes no sense to see the notifications for 2 seconds and then make them disappear ... Anyway, happy new year to all of you

I hate the way notifications behave on MIUI. The fact that I can't swipe either way to dismiss a notification makes no sense. Hopefully Xiaomi releases the kernel source and then development will pick up pace. Cheers and Happy New year

Edit: I guess XDA servers don't load the images I took. Here are direct links to them:

Remove the space between "com" and "dot"
Lol, I don't know why XDA tries to fetch my photos to their servers and fail to load.

The easiest way is to run this command..
Code:
adb shell wm overscan 0,-32,0,0
No need of changing DPI through developer settings and having that ugly small looking UI.

but its not working for all apps.. :/ some apps still not perfectly aligned with notch..
Hi everyone, I'm using a rooted Samsung A10 and had a similar issue with the unallignment of the camera notch. I came across this forum and solved the problem using "adb shell vm overscan" command. However this caused the upper Quick Panel aread become narrower and not only the appearance but also functionally it is too difficult to pull it down when it's such narrow. Please check the photo. Do you guys have any suggestions for that?

Status Bar Icons

Is there anyway to hide some status bar icons such as volte and Bluetooth?

Goodlock, disabled all mine to prevent burn in
You can also remove them with adb on the pc
Do you have a link to a guide to disable icons in the status bar? I'd like to remote the battery icon and AT&T icon.

How To - Modify all the things without third-party apps installed.
Install, Android SDK or ADB Driver on PC, then enable USB-debugging in your device via the developer settings. (alternative: use an ADB Shell App on the device.)
Plug the device in your PC/Laptop
Open Powershell/CMD Run: adb devices
(check your device and only the one device you wish to run shell commands on exists, the best way to plug a device in run command, unplug and run again see if the device no longer shows so you know it the one you're after)
Various Non-Root Commands
Full Time - Immersive Mode
(Permanently hide status and nav bar, restart device afterwards)
Code:
[COLOR="seagreen"]adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.status=*[/COLOR]
Remove Individual Icons from Status Bar
(Permanently hide status and nav bar, some icons require device restart)
Code:
[COLOR="seagreen"]adb shell settings put secure icon_blacklist 'icon string here'[/COLOR]
Code:
example string: [COLOR="seagreen"]adb shell settings put secure icon_blacklist bluetooth,alarm_clock,rotate,nfc_on,battery[/COLOR]
Which removes bluetooth, alarm, rotation lock, and battery icon from the status bar
List of possible strings - unsure if all work with Android P
How to Un**** everything.
Revert All Policy Changes
(Reverts user changes back to stock policy, restart device afterwards)
Code:
[COLOR="seagreen"]adb shell settings put global policy_control null*[/COLOR]

You are not alone.
Good lock is only available in certain regions.
I can't find it in galaxy store either.
Also sideloading the good lock apk doesn't work for me

I didn't realize good lock was finally updated for Pie. Thanks for the heads-up! Now I can be happy again.
