This is a guide to enable System UI tuner on Marshmallow.
Since we cannot root our Android One currently, it is a good way to tweak our devices right now.
It includes
•Re-arrange the Quick Settings toggles.
•Show hide items from the status bar (such as casting icon, do not disturb icon, etc.)
•Show the embedded battery percentage in the Battery indicator.
•Toggle Demo Mode
To enable this, do the following:
•Pull down the notification drawer to display the Settings gear icon in the top right corner.
•Long press this icon. It may not be noticeable, but it will begin to spin under your finger. It may take a couple of tries (did for me on two different devices).
•When it's activated, you will see a popup that says "Congrats! System UI Tuner has been added to Settings" (See screenshot).
•Go to your Settings and you will see an option for "System UI Tuner" under "About Phone".
That's it! Enjoy

Yeah without gravitybox and xposed right now it is our only way of tweaking
Does it work for HTC m8? Can't seem to be getting anywhere??
Stuck ram
I think that only works on AOSP/Close to stock ROMs.
Oh OK thanks for responding.....I've been trying and nothing so no ui tuner for me.

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.

Hi everyone. Can anybody post a screenshot of your homescreen with received emails / messages icons showing in the top left corner of the Mate 20 Pro screen (notifications area) please? I'm sick and tired to hear explanations like "hm, weird. might something wrong with your firmware", hm, I've got everything". Something is telling me that this problem is notch related and Huawei simply don't know how to fix it. Thanks in advance.
What problem do you have?

Okay, I want my phone showing notification icons like in your second screenshot with received emails icons. To other screenshots are the result of action like swipe down gesture. How did you get emails icon there?

No notification icons (emails, messages...) in the top left corner. All I have got is operator name and signal strength (GSM + WiFi) signs. That's it. As a result, I'm missing important messages and emails, not reading them in time. Never experienced anything like this on Pixel, Galaxies, LG, HTC and Sony phones. Also my previous phone - Mate 10 - didn't have this problem too. Can't find the way to fix it on Mate 20 Pro.
Maybe you have disabled them by mistake,you can always go to app setting and enable notifications for each app you want.
It's a horrible notch on this phone.
I'd much rather that if the option to turn "off" the notch is selected, that the whole top line would be moved down so that icons show in an entire row the line below, instead of the very top notched line, but such is life!
For you, is this a space issue do you think?
I've changed the option to show a notification number instead of individual icons. At least with this method, you'll know something is there?
.
You have the place for only 4 icons at the right and at the left of the notch. So that depends if you have Bluetooth on, network monitor on etc... Etc.. For each apps you have maybe in notification bar you should disable apps that you don't want to be in notif bar. For exemple I use Tasker but don't need it in notification bar, so I removed is icon in notification menu.
Like you I don't see my email or text msg notification icon but is because I've Bluetooth on, alarm on, vibrate On and data monitoring on so... Alarm icon don't appear coz I've also signal strength.
Signal strength + Bluetooth icon + network monitor + vibrate mode = 4 icons nothing more. If I switch from vibrate mod to ring mod i' ve again one free slot for another icon etc... Etc..

I haven't touched or disabled anything. Everything is on default settings. I've checked all notifications related settings, everything is enabled.

Yes, this is a space issue and a Huawei issues at the same time. I set "show numbers" options but still no luck. Maybe my current operator name is too long to have anything else beside.

Okay, thanks for explanation. Thant's mean it is space + Huawei issue indeed. Useless (no notifications whatsoever) AOD is quite frustrating as well.

Have you tried unticking the display carrier name option in the display settings?
Edit:
Ahh, this only affects the home screen and not the lockscreen. Never mind
There is room for 5 icons and not 4. The last three ones are replaced by new icon.
I think you've changed something in settings that's why you're not getting notifications.
If you look at second screen shot, you can see that sms icon in the first photo is replaced with keyboard icon and on the third it's back again.

Okay, I see. Seriously, I haven't touch any settings, all in defaults state. Just tried to disable providers name and finally notification popped up! Anyway, notch is the culprit of my issue. I takes heaps of space so with provider name displayed by default there is no space for anything else. Can't justify such a huge notch and having below the average sound from the speakers. My old small Pixel 3 sounds a way clearer and louder even not at high volume. Don't really care about secure and fancy 3D face recognition at all.

Then you bought the wrong handset. The notch is there for a reason. I love the 3d face recognition, so I live with the notch. I bought the right phone.
You can also use adb to permanently disable some of the system icons like Bluetooth, alarm clock, nfc, etc.. This really helped clean things up and made more room up top for notification icons.
One option I wish they had was the ability to move signal and WiFi from left to right.

Total is 8 icons....4 at left and 4 at right or 5 at left 3 at right etc... If you choose to put battery % out of his icon you will see... Battery icon take 2 places, % take one, time take one = 4
If you put battery % inside his icon : battery icon take 2 places, time take one = 3, so you have automatically 5 slots available at left... [emoji57]

its hard to describe and i think it was removed after the pie update, but maybe someone knows if there is still an option to enable it (see attachment for visuals)

I believe its samsung pay. Download it should be there already and open it. You might have to go into settings to enable that bar back.

WARNING!
I'm not responsible for any damage of the devices.
I'm not the developer of the plugin or substratum.
Hey you all!
If you'd like to change the amount of icons you have on your QS Tiles , this is the right guide for you.
So here's a nice way to customize your notification bar
Requirements:
Any OnePlus phone
Root
Substratum
Guide :
1. Make sure you are rooted. Guide for rooting device is here. (Thanks to dladz)
2. Download Substratum from the Google Play Store - Substratum
3. Download and install Ozone - Substratum theme - Ozone - Substartum Plugin for OxygenOS Oreo
Don't worry about saying it's for Android Oreo, i was running this one for couple of years
4. Make sure Substratum is enabled on Magisk.
5. Enter Substratum and click on Ozone.
6. Look for "System UI QS Tile Icons" and select the amount of icons you want in a row and install the overlays.
7. Reboot the device.
8. Enter substratum again and go to Manager tab.
9. Select the overlay "System UI QS Tile Icons" and hit the little circle on the bottom right.
10. Select "Change overlay states".
11. Enjoy
Tested on:
OnePlus 8 Pro (OOS12)
OnePlus 10 Pro (OOS12/13)
Little bonus -
You can change the signal of 4G to LTE if you'd like by doing the same thing but tapping "System UI Status Bar Icons" and select "LTE Icon with disabled SIM Hidden".
That looks nuts... Anyway to have less though? Like 6
