If you're running a custom ROM you could try reflashing it without wiping anything.

hmmmm try restarting/kill your statusbar (dont worry it will come back after about 6 seconds!) if that didnt work try reinstalling your rom. you dont have to reinstall it if you dont want to it.but works for me.
or wipe your cache in xrecovery.
i await a reply if any of those works

I have a similar but peculiar case. An icon appears in the right hand side, just before signals or data. I cant say for sure. It appears and then suddenly disappears. I know it does because the the icon to the left of it is moved for a split second.
There's not enough time to see what the icon is, but there certainly is something. Have you guys noticed this?
or
Am I seeing things?

[Q] Blank icon on Paranoid Android notification bar

Hello guys,
I'm using Paranoid Android v2.21 on my Ace. It has a few bugs, but it's okay in almost every aspect.
My problem is, that after some layout changes (tried out tablet, then phablet then changed back to stock phone UI) I'm having a weird issue. When I turn on or reboot the phone I get a blank icon on the right side of the notification bar just between the wifi signal strength icon and the vibrating (silent) phone icon. I was wondering what it could possibly be and finally found out that when I open my stock clock app and turn on and then off one of the alarms it disappears. Turning the alarm on makes the blank icon reappear. At start it's always there even though my alarms are off. I'm not sure if thats an app or rom issue since the clock is a system app.
Any ideas? Maybe try to overwrite the clock app with one from another source?

[Q] Accessing Statusbar with broken touch

Hello
My glas is broken and I'm gonna change it in the next weeks.
Right now my touchscreen works everywhere perfectly, beside the statusbar. The touchscreen just starts to react under the statusbar (even in recovery mode).
Is it possible to access the statusbar instead of pulling it down? maybe with a button?
Installed rom is CM10.2.
I ask for it, because I don't want always to reboot to clear the statusbar, some notifications doesn't disappear from itself and I can't pull down the status bar to clear it.

Missing navigation bar button icons

Has anyone else had this weird issue? Recently I applied a Samsung theme from the store and the navigation bar button icons dissappeared but the buttons are still there and functionable. Tried re enabling all disabled apps, wiping cache from bootloader, rebooting, applying stock themes, just about everything. Factory reset fixed the problem but than it reoccurred. Going to follow up with a screenshot.
Did you double tap the dot in the left corner of the nav bar?
If so, swipe up from the bottom, the nav bar should appear, double tap the dot again.

Thanks for the reply, I'm not missing the navigation bar. It's just not displaying anything in it. Just looks like a transparent bar. The only thing I can see is the little dot on the left to lock it. Screenshot below.

So, it now does it without applying a theme?

I can't get the icons to show up again without factory resetting the device, soft reset does nothing.. Tried restoring from backup that occurred before applying the theme, and it's still broken. Re enabled all disabled packages, no luck..
Ok, that is an odd one.
Hope you get it worked out. I'll keep looking.

How about in Safe Mode? If it doesn't there... youll know it's an app... or something after your initial setup.

Still occurs in safe mode Thanks for the suggestion though.
Same thing happened to me when I installed one of the black navigation apks on here. Factory reset was the only way I was able to get them to reappear.
are u using transparent navbar overlay apk ?
u can just uninstall the apk app from settings then reboot. icons will show

I was using a black navbar overlay apk, however I tried removing it and rebooting without any success. What's interesting is that I just Factory reset my phone and the black option for navigation bar still persists. Did they add that back in or something?

they had black in factory rom, but when u update firmware it'll be gone. i think.
Sometimes my nav bar icons would dissapear when my blue light filter was turned up very high.

Did you by any chance install a transparent navigation bar apk? I found one and installed it and this same thing happened. I went onto Settings/apps and found the com file, Uninstalled it and rebooted and it went back to stock.
It's possible one of the overlays I installed in substratum contained a transparent nav bar and I didn't notice or something, so maybe by removing the black navbar and rebooting I wasn't addressing the real problem. That sounds feasible, in the end I ended up just doing another factory reset and all is good. Thank you guys for all of the suggestions, I'm fairly certain this was the issue. So maybe avoid transparent nav bars for now

The icon gear blocks notification bar

Hi, I need your opinion. I have a problem with the notification bar after the last update of Android. Randomly appears gear icon on the bar and after that, I cannot pull down the notification bar. I don't know if that problem is related to the Android update. Maybe it is something else. I need to know how to identify the gear icon. When I kill all running apps, gear icon disappears and everything is OK.
What process could do that? I don't have root permissions. I have official global ROM with MIUI Global 11.0.6.0 (QFAEUXM). I don't want to do a factory reset.
Thank you so much
Yikes... Did you do anything that could've triggered that? Like for instance, were you playing with system apps or trying new settings? Or game mode? Because I know that game mode has an option that won't let you pull down the notification bar. I know that it may not be possible for that to happen, but I have to ask just in case (I'm talking about the game mode scenario).

I have the same error ( MI 9)

the notification bar remains black and can't be pulled down
havesam problem tough.but i just need scroll down little bit,i mean not from edge of the screen.
Same issue, Mi 9 SE, MIUI Global 11.0.2 .... with the same gear icon, with the same solution, what you just mentioned. Did anyone find a working solution?
found out what's causing the ominous notification
Hey, I downloaded an app called Notification History and it showed me that most probably it's the notification linked below. Unfortunately I'm still unable to solve the problem because I cannot start that app.
im#gur.com/a/EnleCU5(as I'm not yet allowed to post links, remove the hashmark)
Of course, I'm unable to tap there since I can't pull down the notification bar
Found a solution!!

Okay, all I did was re-downloading the latest patch from Settings->About phone->System update->3 dots in the top right corner->download latest package, and then installed it. It solved my problem so far, without any data loss or reinstalling. Hope this helps y'all!
UPDATE: The issue came back a day later, so I finally decided to factory reset the phone... smh Xiaomi
