anyone?

I asked the same question about the Alarm icon in the status bar about 2 hours ago and it is already scrolled to the 2nd page so it doesn't look good for this.

Check out an app called GMD Immersive in the Play Store. It lets you hide the nav bar, or both nav and status bars.

thanks ill give it a try, i really want to keep the n6 but i can already see the things that will burn in really quickly and im pretty ocd, would do my head in.

yep it does work, next thing is the google search bar, spure white will burn in quick, getting rid of that just leaves the wall paper really.

Modify Status Bar Without Root

Hi guys I found this cool app on the Google play store by James Fenn it allows you to modify the status bar without root it might not work flawlessly but it does this is job this does not work in the lockscreen and live/scrolling wallpaper screenshots below
FEATURES
Center Clock option
Carrier Name
Battery Percentage display
Headphone Indicator
Minimal battery usage I tested it
Material design works in most application
Custom color adjustment for applications
Quote from James Fenn Below
"The actual status bar is only hidden under the replacement; touch gestures are not overridden, and the standard notification panel is still shown. It needs a lot of permissions in order to obtain the information needed to display in the status bar."
Permissions:
- Accessibility Service: used to attempt to get the status bar color of the current app if the 'status bar coloring' preference is enabled.
- Notification Access: used to get the icons of the current notifications.
- System Alert Window, System Overlay Window: used to draw the status bar above all other apps.
- Battery Stats: used to find if the battery is charging and what percent it is at.
- Network State, Phone State: gets the type and connection of the phone network, and if airplane mode is enabled.
- Wifi State: finds if wifi is enabled and how good the connection is.
- Bluetooth: find if bluetooth is enabled & connected or not.
- Location Services: finds if GPS is enabled.
- Alarm: find if an alarm is set.
This app is and will remain ad-free and with no "pay to unlock this feature" popups. All I ask is that you provide some feedback about what I can do to improve your experience with this app.
Current Issues
Heads-up notifications dismiss keyboard
Yep.
Resize LinearLayouts for multiple icons
Since the LinearLayouts currently only take up half of the status bar (or half the status bar minus half the width of the center layout, if there are any centered icons), it is possible for them to run out of space and get cut off on small screens. A warning for this would probably be a good idea...
Backup SharedPreferences to file
Does what it says. It would be a pretty useful option, but a bit impractical where updates are concerned.
Data and signal icons are shown incorrectly
They usually (I've had a few occurrences where they do actually work properly) refuse to disappear when airplane mode is enabled or when wifi is turned off. No clue why.
Needs support for dual sim phones
I've created an IconData class for it [here](https://github.com/TheAndroidMaster...s/status/data/icon/DualNetworkIconData.java), but it doesn't seem to be working properly.
Notifications don't dismiss properly below android 4.3
Notification listener api isn't available, listens for notifications through the AccessibilityService but cannot detect when they are dismissed - temporary solution: remove all icons when the notification panel is opened.

yep i contacted the dev about that hopefully he finds a way to implement it

Some issues I have experienced:
- the bar displays the homescreen wallpaper on some apps. On main apps like Settings, Phone, Messenger etc. the app colour displays properly but on many third party apps the background colour is messed up
- does not work on the lock screen
I have uninstalled it for now

I will make a list of problems and report it to the devs I will tell when he will patch it

the icon for priority doesnt show up. am i missing something?

Have these quirks been officially fixed, yet?

Some things bothered me the last time I had the XZ1 Compact:
1. The network data indicator arrows that made the status bar icons bounce around.
2. The non-removable NFC icon in the status bar
3. The night time blue light filter seemed to be removed from Oreo
With the now lower price of the XZ1 compact, it's crossed my mind again. But have any of these annoyances been fixed in official updates?

Only the nfc icon has been addressed and can now be removed.
The others are the same, i use a third party for the blue light filter.... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.papdt.blackblub.... Icon for the filter can be put in the quick access panel.
The data traffic is an annoyance but quite minor

Good day.
You can install back the Sony night light, see this thread.

This has been fixed by a third-party app. You need adb to enable it, no root required. It will remove the traffic indicators completely (on both wifi and 4g connection) so you won't know if your phone is sending or receiving data, but at least things don't bounce around anymore.

Remove VoLTE icon without rooting or disable

Recently my operator started supporting VoLTE but the problem is that the icon in the status bar is really annoying ... Can I somehow remove it or hide it without disabling the volte ?

Hide status bar on the lockscreen

It's been a while since the MIUI 10 Global update and no solution to this issue. Is there a way to hide status bar or disable pull down option, for e.g. via ADB? It's serious security flaw but since the update (months ago) nothing has been done.

I don't understand how is having status bar on lockscreen is serious security flaw? kindly please i would like to know. also it is been long that i have not been on MIUI so little unaware.
A far as i remember about notification shade pull down, if you want to turn off notification shade pull down then you can turn them off in under settings > notifications & status bar.

Nah, they turn that off in the newest update, so even when the phone is locked, you can pull down QS and turn options off and even edit all the tiles without the need to unlock or type your PIN.
Just image your phone gets stolen and mobile data and GPS can be turned off immediately.

Okay got it, thanks for explaining.
I always kept this feature on as i found useful to turn on off toggles without password,pattern or unlocking device.(well this is might be just me)
