When I want to know the date, I touch the notification bar to begin dragging down the screen, and the date becomes visible. However, the format doesn't include day of the week. Anyone know how to change the format so it does? Changing the format of the time to include the date/day would also work for me.

I have a rooted Nook Color and it is fantastic. However, I want to use the Crosswords application from the Android market. The only problem is that it appears to mess up the size calculation for the screen. It looks to me like it is not correctly calculating the size because it assumes the notification bar will be at the top of the screen. So it ends up overlaying the notification bar over the clues... or in horizontal mode, it overlays them over the bottom row of the software keyboard.
So, I want to selectively disable (or move to the top) the notification bar. Is there any way to do that? Or am I doomed?
Thanks. -ben
I too would love to know how to disable the bar or maybe even move it to the top. After mapping back and menu to the volume buttons the notification bar is really just a nuisance in its current location. However, through my limited research I've found nothing!
Edit: This may be just what you're looking for, I was looking for a more broad solution though....

Softkeys is great for back and menu
The softkeys app is great for the back and menu... I wish it included a button to make the current app be full-screen. But I don't know if it is even possible to do that.
I'm sure it is possible I just don't know if the demand is high enough to add said function, like I said earlier I would love a more permanent way to toggle the bar system wide.
I was wondering if it is possible to changing the date format in the Notification bar so it spells out the day so instead of it being for today 01/06/2011, it would say Wednesday June 1, 20011. I know there is a time and date feature in the settings but it doesn't give this format as an option. Thanks.

Hi .. just curious on this one.
If you pull down the quick notification area on the top left area there is the time, day and date info displayed.
Just curious to know if there is anyway to change the date format here? I have changed the system date format to date, month but it's showing as month, date instead on this area. Others are ok.
Thanks a bunch!!

It can't be change while rooted your device.
you might be disasemble framework.apk and change xml properties connecting notifications date format.
Thanks .. I guess I'll just stick to the current format.
But strange why the date format is not universal across the device.
Hi all
I've my phone since two days and I have to say, I deeply dislike MIUI.
The most annoying thing for me is the status bar. I have apps open all day long (for work) with action buttons in the notifications.
If I pull down the status bar, it always opens the second (right) screen, and not the left one with all the notifications. Further, after closing status bar and reopening again (for clicking the action buttons), the notification is not expanded anymore. It does not save, that I've expandet it allready. In these cases, you always have to use two fingers, to expand the notification again. Really annoying! Every other *normal* Android system I had, has behaviour like this...
I don't want to flash RR or CM, there always are bugs and features not working...
The person who can point me to the right direction for addressing these bugs is my hero!
Thanks for all your replies in advance!

Hi,
you provide no information about what rom or what version of miui you are using. This makes it a bit hard to help. My Mi5 runs the xiaomi.eu dev version 6.7.21. The bug you describe is not present on that version. I just tried the "two sided" notification bar and it always expands to the notification side and not to the shortcuts side. But I prefere to use the "one sided" notification bar, which is more comfortable for me. Everything is on one side and the shortcuts are located above.
cheers

Hi Greg
Thanks for your reply. Oops, stupid me.
I'm running MIUI 7 Global 6.5.30 on my Mi 5 Pro.
Maybe they changed this behaviour for the global release.
You mentioned "I just tried the "two sided" notification bar [...snip...]". Are those "one side" notification bars in every MIUI (v7) or do you have some special build? I can't find it in my settings...
Hi,
honestly, I tested miui v7 just for one or two days, then miui v8 came out and I switched directly to this new version. So, i really do not know, if the "two sided" notification bar was firstly introduced in the v8 or if it was a part of the v7 already. Is there something holding you back from flashing the new miui v8? I would do a nandroid backup and test the v8. But don't forget to update your twrp accordingly.
cheers
I have Huawei P10, newly bought and came with Nougat but then the update for Oreo was available so I updated it...
Now I don't like how the pull down notification has changed. When I swipe from the top down it opens whole notification window at once. It doesn't open firstly 1 row and then on the 2nd swipe down the whole window.
This is what I'm talking about:

Is there a way to change it like it was before?
I am having the same issue. Plus with the auto-brightness deactivated, the screen changes the brightness as her wish, and sometimes the screens turns on without getting a notification. I asked for help in this forum, you can search the thread, but the only solution that they gave me, was that i make a wipe cache and a factory reset and the problem will be gone. I did it, i even downgraded again to nougat, and then update again. Nothing didn't work, so early this week i leave the phone on a tech support, and im waiting. Try the solution for yourself and if it doesn't work, do the same, go to the tech support. (sorry for my english)
I make an update for if anyone is interested. Got the phone again from the tech support, the problem still exist, just got the update 8.0.0.365. Huawei didn't fix the problem. If anyone knows any other way to fix it, please post it.
The same happened to me as well after the july update. Pulldown bar goes up in 2 slides, but down, it opens completely from just one slide. I did have a custom theme installed which modified the collors of the icons in the pulldown menu. I guess this was affected by the update. Problem is I can no longer find the theme to reinstall and uninstall. I am hoping for a solution besides a factory reset
backup and factory reset and restore. .... manner of 1 hour. Its highly recomended to do FR (factory reset) every major update nad update form nougat to oreo is one of these.
I have no screen issues or auto brightness or self turning on of display.
For the pulldown menu. When i have no notifications and swipe down i see all 2 rows of switches and brightness bar. When i have some notifications after swipe down i see only first row of switches and the notificitaion and i have to swipe again to see full notification list. Its how its mean to work on Oreo. Get used to it or go back to nougat

I apologize, I am an idiot. I will explain:
Ever since buying the phone, I installed a weather app (not sure if I'm allowed to write the name so I'll leave it out). Point is, that particular app always had a notification on, whenever I was swiping down, so naturally, the phone only showed 1 row of icons from the pull down menu. I uninstalled it a few weeks ago because it was not working right, due to the DCMA notifications, it started to hang, become inaccessible, stuff like that.
After taking it down, I've noticed that the pull down menu was showing in full. I thought this was either due to a theme I installed before the July update, that miss-fired , during the upgrade, or the new update screwed up my pull down bar.
So, naturally, I did what you wrote, first, a Factory Data Reset. No dice, pull bar still went down fully. I thought, ok, try the hard way, so I did a full Factory Reset (Phone Off, Phone On with Power button and Volume Button pressed). Still no dice, bar was full. I did the full reset again, this time deleting the cache as well. Again, the bar was full. So, I said (insert bad word) it, I'll use it like this, even tho I did not really liked it. Restored everything from back-up, and after I've configured everything, I decided to give the weather app another try. Pull Down Bar now only shows one row of icons, just like before.
Sorry for the wall of text.
Thank you again for the advice, and for your patience.
