i am running Stock up including clock face but with NULL_18 as base for extra benefits.
how can i quickly see the battery status like what i see when i plug it in?
currently i have to go to Settings > Battery which is not quick and easy.
i had used the Watch Style app where you can get faces with battery but it seemed to use more battery and i like Stock look.
thanks for any suggestions.

When I double-tap, the status bar shows up. The problem is now when I load a full-screen app, the status bar is always there at the top. How do I go back to hiding the status bar at all times?

I use GMD gesture control to create a gesture to toggle the status bar on and off

Thanks, I'll check out GMD. In the meantime, is there a setting somewhere to revert back to the no-statusbar UI?

Are you looking for a setting to switch back to the original tw launcher or for use in the nova launcher? To set touch whizz as the default launcher just go to nova settings and it's the first option, select touch whizz, switch the screen of and use the twisting arm wake gesture to select home. If you're looking at changing the nova settings it might be an idea to reflash null and not check full ui in the aroma options. I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for though. It's a bit late here and I'm a bit frazzled

I'm in the TouchWiz launcher / shell, which is nice. No issue there. My problem is I two-finger tapped or double-tapped the screen to try gestures, and the status bar appeared at the top, showing the battery %, time, Bluetooth icon, etc. I now have no way to make this status bar disappear at the top. For example, I see it when I'm in Settings, or in the root browser, or any custom app.
It seems the two-finger tap toggled it on, but there is no way to toggle it off. Where is the setting to turn it off?

That's not the two finger toggle. The two finger toggle on stock or null without full system ui is a shortcut to brightness/volume and battery screen. Sounds like you've selected full system ui in the aroma settings. I can't see any options to switch off the status bar in apps. You can turn it off on the nova launcher with nova settings but that doesn't apply to apps. You can try flashing the Rom again and uncheck the full status ui and see if the status bar is still present in third party apps or you can download another third party app to control things like the status bar in apps. There's a list of third party apps you could use in the help sticky null_/free falling theme..... It's under notifications icons/soft buttons

I'm probably just missing something, but where is the option to disable the auto-hide of the notification bar when on the home screen?
Much thanks!
I didn't know there was an auto hide, but if you go to adw settings > screen preferences > hide status bar, you can enable or disable.

also, in older versions a up swipe gesture automatically hid the notification bar. I think they got rid of that as a default though.

It seems like this is what I was doing with my notification bar. I have the latest version though, so this might still be default. Thanks!

There is no real auto-hide.... either show or hide.
Under screen preferences... first option.
Also.... change your swipe up to something else if that what is causing it to hide.
Hi,
I am currently using WidgetLocker as my default lockscreen and it is working well, stock lockscreen isn't showing at all etc., but one MAJOR drawback. I can't get the Navbar (softkeys?) to minimize on the lockscreen. Its probably just an easy fix and I'm somehow missing it, any ideas?
Have you disabled it in the settings? If I remember correctly, there's 2 places in the settings to do that.... which is weird.
Try:
Settings > Buttons & Gestures
Also try:
Settings > Look & Feel
As for the Nav bar/softkeys .... I dunno.
Good Luck.
Temp Fix.

I found a temporary fix. For some reason if you select allow home on the lock screen it minimizes on the lockscreen...
If you swipe up from the bottom though, you can go home without unlocking.
I was just wondering what every ones "must have" mods are. they always have to have on their Nexus 6 no matter what ROM.
For me I feel I'm rather simple.
leankernel: enable Green LED for Full Battery, Double Tap to Wake, Set Color Calibration, -50mv
Root: to use Trickster Mods, and fo build.prop tweaks
Build.pro: enable Google Launcher Home and lock screen roation, 493DPI
Franco kernel (latest release)
Clean ROM 1.4
Double tap to wake
Light flow for led notifications
battery percent text instead of battery icon.
I install nova prime and, screen off. Then I enable double tap to screen off.
The one mod I have not seen (other than in CM12) is the ability to add/remove options to the stock lolloipop quick setting tiles. I would love to add the accounts sync toggle to that section.

What is 'screen off'?
Its an app in the play store I use the one called screen off the developer is icillin. I use nova prime to set double tap to activate that app and it locks the screen just like the LG stock launcher did when I had the G2.
LED notifications, battery percentage, no boot music, no hard coded Web bookmarks as a start.

Its an app from what he said. I use s2s and d2ts (swipe nav bar to sleep and double tap status bar to sleep) with elementalx or lean kernel
Just in case any of you don't like the fixed status bar you can still hide it with the old shell commands, to bring it back for a few seconds just swipe down from the top.
I did on my S8+ and just tried on the Note 8 and it works fine. No Root needed

I remember this! I'm glad something still works! Thanks for the heads up. Here's my homescreen.
Is there a way to permanently disable navigation bar and use swipe gestures instead? (I don't mean hide the navbar, because it appears when you try to use swipe gestures). I love the immersive mode but constant need to bring the bar back is pretty annoying. I would greatly appreciate if anyone would suggest a way!
If you dont want to go through all this you can use Nova launcer and just choose the option to hide the status bar, it will only appear if you swipe down from the top

This is for immersive mode system wide, you will not see the status bar in all apps too.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I LOVE immersive mode but doing it this way is too buggy for me to enjoy
Causes lag dragging the notification bar down and also bugs out in lots of apps (facebook/whatsapp/MEGA) etc
I have a better idea:
download the "Tiles" app from the play store, it has immersive mode option to be turned on and off from the notification panel, added as a tile. run this adb command "adb shell pm grant com.rascarlo.quick.settings.tiles android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS" then you can set it to ask you to turn off everything or different component. You can still swipe up. Also, you can only turn off status bar. etc.
Also, I am personally using the PIE controls app form the play store instead of the gestures since I am unrooted. Works well.

Yes that is. If you swipe up it will appear otherwise it doesn't show.
Is there any way to permanently hide it? I don’t want it coming back when swiping up. Want to replace it with pie.
Is there a way to get a gesture that let's me swipe up to go to home from and screen?. Like webos, Nokia and blackberry 10 had?
I'm trying to find the opposite option. I have a few apps that use immersive mode, but can't use the full screen, leaving annoying black bars. Is there a way to disable immersive mode for these apps so I can keep the navbar and status bar visible?

The app SystemUI Tuner by Zachary Wander, has Immersive Mode. In that category for it you can blacklist app to not use Immersive Mode.
Finally i upgraded my note 9 to pie. Battery life is certainly better. But I have 2 issues:
I have set a custom screen dpi in developer options to 455 dpi. In oreo it was perfect but in pie somewhere the text is too small like names below the icons, widgets and somewhere the text is too big like clock text in the status bar and text in device care app. Also the icons are way too big in proportion to the text below. Am I missing some setting?
I had set swipe down gesture to open the notification panel under homescreen settings in Samsung launcher. It was working perfect in oreo but in pie it sometimes work 1 in 3 tries and sometimes even 1 in 5 tries, i.e., i swipe down on the screen and nothing happens. Whereas swipe up to open the app drawer works perfect without any issues. Strangely if I disable the notification panel gesture, the default action for swipe up or down becomes opening app drawer and it works just fine without any problem. Anyone else noticed this strange behavior?
If not already, wipe the partition cache as that usually helps with most issues after update.

For the first question: Why not use the scaling, font size, zooming options from the settings menu?
For the second one: no, for me it works perfectly fine.

I've got the same problem you mentioned in #2. It's pretty annoying! It's like it's become less sensitive, or the activation area is now higher and in the middle, or your swipe needs to be longer.
Not sure for the first question, but Nova Launcher from the play store (as do many other good launchers) have multiple gestures. Nova Launcher has the gesture that you pull down on the home screen to open notifications and also has swipe up to open app draw as well as many other gestures. I use Nova Launcher with those gestures and it works very well.
I have the same problem swiping down it's so annoying
And strangely flicking up for apps works so easy but more pressure is needed for downwards? Must be a software issue

About swipe down, do you have any widget on your homescreen? If you swipe down on a widget, it gets the swipe gesture instead of the homescreen itself so the notification panel doesn't shows up.

No widgets. I also enabled to view screen touches in developer options. And I can see its registering my swipes everytime but the notifications panel doesn't open everytime.
