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)

Hello, I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to remove the top taskbar (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc) while the screen is locked? I wouldn't want anyone who can't unlock my screen to be able to disable my WiFi or Bluetooth etc.
Any insight is helpful.
Thanks!
Anyone?

Cerberus has this function built in. Can also block power menu
Isn't it possible to block in settings?
Quick menu has serious bug:
Lock screen - quick settings - SETTINGS and phone is unlocked. No PIN requested, no fingerprint needed.
This is really anoying to have such security bug.
Oxygen 3.5.4, rooted
That's not the case on 4.0.1.
Also, for the time being I got what I wanted by removing the data option from the quick settings.. So if someone does get hold of the mobile, they still can't disable the data. Ofcourse they can shut it off and eventually wipe it off. Good enough for now I guess.
Hello,
Know someone a trick to enable / view network speed on status bar ( some trick as for battery )? Some hide settings from where to enable?
Thanks

Wait for bootloader unlock and custom ROM.
Only way to do it right now is to download an app that displays it in the left corner.
just to add to that , the 3G or 4G symbol is always displaying EVEN with the data turned OFF...
in the case that the phone is indeed using Mobile Data there are small arrow indicators that show Mobile usage.
app for everything that you need. This is something which bothers me coming from MIUI and its available customisation options. Ability to record calls from the dialler all the way to something trivial like Battery% in status bar.

Battery Percentage can be set to be displayed either while on charge or always.
That can be set within the system ui tuner, and that can be activated by holding down the gear symbol (settings) on the pull down menu.
Then in the settings menu you should see the system ui options.

Have you disabled any animations in developers options? If so, you have to turn them on again to make it work.

You are right, I disabled them all. Strange that this UI tweak menu need that to be enabled.
Thanks.
They're kind of distracting, and imo useless. Any way to get rid of them?
Wouldn't be too bad if there was a dedicated space in the status bar for them, but when they come and go, icons to the left bounce around.

Yes I find them to be very distracting as well. I did a quick search to look on how to disable them but came up empty [emoji852]️

I ended up just disabling the data icon entirely. I almost never end up in a dead zone without signal/wifi, and if you really want to know you can use a widget or KLWP or something to make an indicator on your desktop.

How did you disable the data icon?

Enable the System UI Tuner by pulling down the notification shade and long pressing the settings gear icon for a while.
Then, find System UI Tuner in the System Settings. From there you can disable various icons.
Sony monitor their own Community forums for feedback. There are a few threads over there already about these network indicators causing icons to shift around; plenty of people find them irritating. Be sure to add your thoughts to those threads and hopefully Sony will change the icons in a future update.
I went to phone settings and found a Sony email address and sent some feedback mostly about the status bar indicators, nfc icon, auto brightness, and missing Oreo night mode (blue light filter). But I'll check out the Sony forum. Both Oreo and the phone are fairly new, so maybe it's just they need to polish the software a bit.
I thought I was the only one finding this annoying. I was about to create a new thread about it. I think what I can do for now is to disable the entire icon and install some third party app for wifi indicator.

Thank you!!! Can't wait to get home and try this, will update this post with the results.
Is it possible to enable the pull-down bar when on lock screen on the Huawei p20 pro ?
That would allow access to security settings, so would defeat the point of a lock.

He has a point, if you allow to slide down notification on lock screen, you can either glitch or bypass some how to access settings.
So this is why slide down isn't available on lockscreen to avoid this from happening.
Pretty sure stock Android allows this. Useful for toggling quick settings which don't really need security protecting. You would only be able to glitch past the lock screen if it was very poorly implemented.
True it does, but not safe that it does, so Huawei in a way did a good point to remove it on theirs to keep it more secure.
Not really. Every manufacturer allows for the notification shade to be expanded on the lockscreen while the phone is locked.
Only Huawei decided to be smarter and disable it completely. They just broke it. The feature was there on SW ver. 106. v.107 and later don't have it anymore. Along with expanding the notifications on the lockscreen in order to take action. Also something that stock Android as well as every other manufacturer has on their phones, but Huawei.
There is a topic about this in the P20 section of XDA.
I don't like it to be active in lock screen, so I'm really happy the way it is.

There is the slight bonus of a thief not being able to disable GPS and Mobile Data. They'll want to turn on the phone again at some point even if they do just shut it down. Unless it goes straight to being stripped down for parts I guess...
Hi All,
Hope you are fine. I am using LOS 14.1 and realized something. I can access things on Status Bar when screen locked. I can enable WIFI (select any Access Point from list, etc.), enable Cellular Data or other things. How can i prevent this?
If my phone locked, someone shouldn't access the Status Bar things.
I couldn't see a module which has this feature.
Waiting your experiences.
Thank you.
Have a happy holiday.
Hi there. I found a solution (a friend advised).
Download GravityBox for your Android version. I am using [N].
Status Bar Tweaks->QS Management->Status Bar QS Tiles->Marked WIFI and Cellular Data and rebooted. Thay are still visible on Status Bar while screen locked but i can't access. You can only tap.
