Z1: Removing battery icon from expanded status/notification bar - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This is really bugging me...
Using the stock options to choose status bar icons you can disable the battery icon. Stuff like percentage/stamina are subsets of the battery icon.
However, when you expand the status bar (by dragging it down) it reappears! Funnily enough the percentage/stamina tick boxes are remembered so I can change whether they come up or not by changing the option before greying them out by disabling the battery icon)
This is rather annoying as I'm using xposed for the sweet round battery icon with percentage in the middle. But if the status bar is expanded, I now have 2 battery icons...and also the lightning bolt when charging...
Had same problem on 2 custom roms (MX & striker kai .236 stock based roms).
Had a long scroll through xposed for some various system UI modifiers but didn't find anything.
Any solutions would be appreciated ^^

if you want to change only icon of battery then use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=lfprodev.xposed.xstana&hl=en it will overlay stock icons !!!!!!

Removing Battery Icon From Status Bar

I was wondering if there is a simple guide to remove the battery icon completely from the status bar. My search has so far shown me links for sense based roms only. I am currently running enom's rom and would appreciate a heads up as to the name of the jar or services file within the rom that controls the icons.
thanks in advance.
You could open up the framework res, open the icon files and just erase the contents and resave. Then just make a metamorph with the empty files.
I would rather remove it completely...replacing with transparent icons will put an empty spot on the status bar.
I'm interested to remove the clock from the status bar!!
Any idea?
You can hide the clock if you're using CyanogenMod.
As for battery, I'd like to know that too as I'm using an app that shows battery in the status bar already, so system battery icon is redundant.
How can I install CyanogenMod? I use a stock rom

[Q] Battery Level (%) Icon

I have tried more than 10 apps for battery level.
None of them replaces the stock battery indicator...
I do not wish to see two indicators in my status bar...
The Status bar icon is only added with an increased item in notification bar...
Plz suggest me some application which will show only the status bar icon (without notification item) or
replace the stock battery icon.
As you are not saying anything about which ROM/kernel/patches/phone model, safest suggestion would be to apply adhesive tape or a paint marker.
Kinda static batt. level but % for sure
If u have finished marketing ur products u can try UOT Kitchen..

you must know how to edit the framework-res , or search for a theme with percentage .
Almost every custom Rom has a percentage batt. Look around there. I think this is the easiest way for you.

[Q] Substitute for notification bar ?

OK, for some reason I want to get rid of the notification bar, but don't want to loose any functionality, so I need a substitute for what it does. So far I found :
- toggles : widgetsoid. I'm sure there's a lot of widget that does this, but this one is nice and does what I want.
- battery level and Wi-Fi / 3G strength indicators : widgetsoid does propose that again, but I like the icons less. Maybe I'll buy the alternative icons (default ones are free), or find an alternative.
- notifications : that's where it does get tricky. Is there any widget that just displays notifications from the notification bar ? I know Nova Launcher Prime allows icons to displays a number of messages / missed calls / unread mails, etc, but I'm not sure it can cover every notification from the bar.
- anything else I'm missing from the notification bar ?
Thanks
Isn't there a feature on Nova launcher to hide the status bar ? I remember being able to do this on my SGS1 and all i had to do to get it back was swipe down the screen, Then when i swiped it back up it would disappear.
As for totally removing it, I dont know if its possible as you would have to dig deep into the framework and a lot of the system requires it.
On paranoid android you can remove the notification bar, or keep it at the bottom
My english is not very good, sorry I was not clear. My problem is not to hide the status / notification bar (nova allows this, no problem). The problem is find widgets or other workarounds to get the functionalities (toggles, notifications, clock, battery level indicator, etc) of the notification / status bar since I won't use it at all. To be more precise, I'll be using a TW based custom ROM at 213 DPI, so notification bar won't appear at all.

Thanks for the statusbar+, although it does not exactly what I want...I guess I'll stick with phone mode.

How do I get rid of the battery showing on the Lockscreen ?

One of my biggest pet peeves and first world problems, is the battery icon or % or anything battery related whatsoever showing itself on my phone. I do not want to see the battery life displayed anywhere ever on my phone, it's too stressful and pisses me off seeing it. I know when my battery low, and will check it in the Settings menu myself like once a day, or see it when charging.
How do I get rid of the battery icon and % from showing in the lockscreen status bar ? I use the Xposed Wanam app to hide the battery icon on the home screen status bar. But for some reason I still see it on the lockscreen.
I have the T-Mobile Note 5, running an International Marshmallow ROM. I am using the latest official T-Mobile firmware, bootlloader, and modem. But previous Lollipop ROM's I was always able to hide any battery stuff on the lockscreen.
Any suggestions ?
Lockscreen showing the damn ugly and stressing me battery icon WHICH I NEVER WANT TO SEE EVER ON MY PHONE
Homescreen, without the battery icon, which is perfect.
Setting>Battery> Percentage on status bar - Switch off

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Did that, and it get only gets rid of it on the main homescreens, not the lockscreen.
Have you resolve this issue? i have the same issue

Settings problem with Status bar icons

PROBLEM:
During settings => status bar=>show system icons=> I have deactivated everything beside bluetooth+Wifi+mobile data+battery+ watch.
here is the problem since I have chosen to show clock with seconds it wont fit the screens with everything else. Clocks position is right+ shows seconds.
I wanna see wifi+mobile data battery and clock. now here is the kicker , as soon as i activate data saver the wifi icon on status bar vanishes.(attached file missing)
It is like it wont fit the status bar. I have SGS4 with no problem with the same settings.
QUESTION:
is there a way to "fit" icons on status bar without Data saver using that space up? (is there a way to enhance the status bar icons?Like add more?)
I want my status bar look like the attached file "ok 1"'
PS: Do observe I am a noob and non english speaker.
