[Q] [Oreo] Notification Bar WiFi/Mobile Data activity Icons? - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Hi all,
Since updating to Oreo, data activity in the WiFi and Mobile Data icons have been moved to the left side of the icon, instead of showing inside. This causes all my icons on the left to shift every time there is data activity. Any way to turn mobile data activity off? Or at the very least revert the icon to the Nougat one?
Screenshot for explanation:

Edit: I have a Pixel 2 XL too. There's no icon blinking data activity on this phone.

I haven't found a way to access that yet, and it is a small annoyance for sure. I prefer it inside the icon, just like battery percentage.

Yeah, I prefer battery percentage to be inside too. Doesn't annoy me as much as this though.

This has come up on several threads already. Can we almagamte to raise the issue?
I have disabled the icon using UI tuner as it is constantly shifting the other icons to the left. Interesting that it's not present on Pixel.
It really seems like Xiaomi have rushed out this update to keep to their promised schedule. Hopefully we will receive a major patch soon to fix this and all the other bugs/rendering issues

The Pixel 2 XL just doesn't show when there's data activity. Battery % is also outside the icon on the Pixel 2 XL. There's no Nougat for the Pixel 2 XL so I don't have a basis for comparison on that phone. I assume the change of the icon functionality is from Nougat to Oreo, but A1 is the only phone on Oreo right now which shows data activity, hence this issue.

Bump
Anyone has any solution to this?

Jelly Bean does have native battery percentage

If you modify the build.prop file and set the DPI to 160, Android will switch to a UI designed for larger screen sizes. Along with that comes a native battery percentage indicator in the notification shade.
So my question is this, if it exists in the native OS, is there a simple hack to get it to appear in the other native interfaces?

Sure would be nice if this was a system setting! Be nice to get type size larger without rooting!
No kidding! It would seem promising to me though that the operating system does, in fact, have a battery percentage indicator built in. I can't imagine it should be too much of a stretch to force it to appear in the non-tablet interfaces.

easily doable via System UI edits...decompile using apktool
need to update stat_sys_battery.xml and stat_sys_battery_charge.xml to include pngs for all files, and add in your pngs
Yeah it'd be great to have a battery indicator and the clock/notifications on the bottom, but heard of too many scare stories to even try, like the Nexus 7 bricking on boot and more incompatible apps
Having the battery percentage showing up in the tablet is not something new. I have it on my HoneyComb Tablet: it shows up the percentage near to the battery.
I don't know if it isa modification made by HTC, but I don't think so.
Sorry to revive a dead/old thread, but have any of you found a solution to this since last posting here? Or can anyone else comment on this? I'm trying to get the battery percentage showing next to/inside of the battery icon on the status bar on my friends phone for him, without rooting preferably, and without installing additional software (otherwise I'd just install GSam).
TYIA!

Smart Stay Icon, No longer displays

Does anyone have this enabled?
And if so, do you see the icon at all?
Use to look a little like:
{
"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_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have not seen the icon appear once since having the feature enabled.
So am just wondering if they removed the icon from appearing because its not needed.
Or its just my device / Module conflicting
I used to have a Galaxy S3 and the icon was there...now on my S7 edge I have it enable and there's no icon.

I have noticed it working.
i.e. Have it disabled and read a news page without touching the phone
and it will lock pretty quick.
Enable the feature and the device does not lock while am reading.
The icon was a nice clarification it was working.
No big problem, one less icon that clutters the nav bar.

No icon here. Anyway the options works fine with good environment light and the phone in vertical position.

I haven't been able to get it to work at all for me. On my old S3 it worked fine for me, but not on the S7 in the same locations and lighting conditions.
I don't believe the S6 had that icon either. I do remember what you're talking about from my Note 10.1 2014 tablet though, along with a notification when it couldn't see your eyes and was about to turn off. The extra notification was a bit annoying, but a little icon to know it sees you would be nice.
I noted that sometimes, I don't know why, the "smart stay" function disable itself. What could it be?

Apart from all the circular icons everywhere?
They do however not appear to support long press on icons on the homescreens (on 7.1 they should produce a submenu)

The quick settings panel now shows 6 settings instead of 5, and the settings gear-icon now shows without expanding the panel entirely.
Did you get this as an OTA?
I have seen nothing yet ...
I have had it for a week or so. My tablet now runs very sluggish and needs rebooting several times a day to free it up.
Reports from others are a bit thin on the ground. So I shall wait a while and see what happens but this is not acceptable so far.
Mine was running sluggish too (no upgrade) the last few days - especially the touchscreen, I tried clearing the cache from a number of apps ... no real change. I rebooted into safe mode - and it seemed to run OK - I then made a simple reboot ... some unexplained changes to launcher and keyboard then seen ... but once I changed those back to my preferred ones, it seems to be running OK again now. I guess there was "something" running in the background hogging all of the processing power.

[TIP] Enable Hidden Reading Mode in OnePlus 3/3T

Hi everyone!
I've found that the OnePlus 5's "Reading Mode", which has been exclusive to the OP5 from the start, has been integrated in the latest OOS 5.0 Update for the OnePlus 3/3T but is still hidden, as expected so that this can remain an exclusive to the OP5/5T

Here's how to access the hidden settings:-
I used Nova Launcher Prime for doing this.
1. Add a Nova Launcher Activity by going into widgets.
2. Scroll down to Settings & then find "Reading Mode" & select that.
Now by clicking on that created Activity, you can access the hidden Reading Mode settings

This is great! And OnePlus said that this feature won't make it to OP3/3T via a SW update because of hardware shortcomings. I'm not sure why would they do this..

Yes they did I believe they added this mode by mistake in the OOS build for the 3/3T. I wish the new 5T's Face Unlock implementation also arrives for our 3/3T

Thanks!! Awesome work. :good::good:
This doesn't really work as it should.
We lack a hardware sensor, RGB ambient light sensor.
So what we get is basically Night mode with the Monochromatic profile.
The real deal should adapt the color of the display to the color temperature of the surroundings.
This was already possible to achieve without this entry, by enabling both the features I mentioned.
But congrats on the find. :good:
OOS ROMs are getting as stuffed as a turkey on Thanksgiving.
Thats a great find bro. Thanks for sharing
Didn't work for me.
Whenever I switch in reading mode. It goes grey for 1 second and then back to normal! Any solution?

Android Oreo - unreadable notifications due to white background

I've updated my device to Android Oreo (AOSP Extended) and immediately noticed the new "design choices", which led to the following problem:
{
"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_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
That's how it looks like, when I'm trying to download an app using Google Playstore. The progress bar, the name of the app (which is showing the notification) and its icon are completely missing, is there any way to fix this?! Unfortunately I didn't find any way to change the background colour - it would be even better to get rid of the new "everything is white" design, but I would be already happy, if I could at least read my notifcations ^^
I have already spent way too much time searching for a solution, but I didn't find anything (except installing Subtratum Theme Engine, which seems to be a bit unreasonable for just changing the background colour), so you're my last hope

You don't like the new design? It's called Ultra Minimalistic Material. Deal with it, it'll grow on you soon. Besides you should know what's in the notification by now...
jokes aside, just use AEX 5.6. It worked flawlessly. You can also change color on both the rom you have and 5.6, just go to Settings - Display - more
