[Q] mod?: Logo or account avatar displaying next to battery? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I was wondering if there was a way to add a logo or display you account icon on the primary status bar aside from just being in the lock screen?

You mean the one you get when you pull the notification bar down?

Yep! Or something like how blisspop does with the custom logo on the left.

The icon is linked to your user in settings. Just goto settings-user-choose your account and change image.

He just wants the logo to appear in the status bar at all times.

[Q] Battery percentage in notification bar

Anyone figured out how to get it to show the battery percentage? The ADB command for KitKat doesn't seem to do anything.
Have you tried battery percent for kit kat in play store?

My understanding was that it was essentially a front-end on the adb command, but I'll try it.

You can try This.

Ah, the description for the app points out that the text is white on a white background when the battery is full. I just hadn't waited long enough, it was in fact working.

Nice
Thanks for the app suggestion. Any other apps that can do the same but with colored text instead of white?

"Power toggles" gives a few different options/colors, as well as giving toggles in the notification shade
I use battery bt pro it works great uses only three permissions and you can change the color

I wish this would be built in - show the % inside the icon with it horizontal like HTC sense. Kind of ridiculous to run a widget to show %! Ditto for signal, should be a way to display dBm too!

Icons changed after Oreo update

I just got my update. How do i remove the while fill-in around all my icons?
Thanks.
Weirdly, i also cannot slide down the notifications/quick settings panel without the navigation bar sliding up as well.

There is an option in settings called icon frame, you should tick Icons only and your problem is resolved

Are you using the stock Samsung launcher?
I've uninstalled Nova (as I had it installed but I wasn't using it), but the option is still greyed out.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated as it's bugging me lol.
Weird.. I have the option available to me, but whether I click icons only, or select the other option, doesn't make any difference, it still shows with the ugly white border :S
Google and their insane obsession with the color white continues in Oreo. SMH.

Force the use of legacy icons in any compatible launcher. Nova has it once you enable Labs.

Same problem with me, you found a solution yet bro?
Same here after i updated to oreo the option Icons frames>Icons only it's bugged and isn't working.
Icon frame problem s7 edge oreo
I received oreo today and i am facing the same problem. Doesn't matter whether i choose with frame or without frame, the icons appear with frame. Did anyone's problem resolved or it still exists?
This is one of the reasons I hate Oreo. Mandatory adaptive icons.

Hide Home Bar?

Any way to hide the home bar? I don't understand Google's logic. They copied the iPhone's gestures, but in doing so they created a stupid mini bar that runs edge to edge taking up screen real estate for a mini white bar to sit in the center. Why can't it just run on top of apps like the iPhone and fade when not in use?
I'd rather hide the stupid search bar at the bottom. Or figure out how to do it

If you are rooted both of these can be done with this mod.

Use Immersive Mode Manager from Google Play. Doesn't need root and can be activated using ADB.

Totally agree with all of this.
Just have it float always above everything. Simple. Why is that hard Google?!?

The frustrating part is that they kinda do it with some of their apps. Notice how it hovers over Android Messages, but in Chrome, it creates a small black bar. Wtf.

Download "Hide Navigation Bar" from the Play Store, give it the appropriate permissions via ADB and hide the bar. I did it on mine and everything works 100% perfect without the stupid wasted space at the bottom and the ugly navigation pill. Supported the dev with a purchase too to say thanks.

No, sorry. I should have read the thread closer.
Edit: there might be one way. I'll try on my spare phone. The pixel Launcher can be uninstalled. I'll try modding it, signing it, and see if it will install.
Do you have a standalone module or is it in your ADB module? I don't mind the bar but with gboard it takes up a ton of space. So removing it would be super helpful there.

Just installed the app and ran the adb command on my 4 XL and it's working as described - ugly nav bar/line removed, screen content now fills the whole screen to the bottom.
Thumbs up to the OP and dev :good:

Status Bar icons merging into a dot, how to fix?

I have several status bar icons (not notifcation icons) that I want always visible, but after a couple, they just turn into one dot and I cant see them unless I swipe down the notification bar. Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this? I'm rooted on LineageOS with Magisk 22.1, but had the same problem on stock. Thanks

I've never seen that. Can you give a screenshot of just before it changes and after?
The dot appears when you have enough notification icons, that can't be all shown at the same time, kinda like a "there's more" indicator.
Sadly the space for notifications is limited to just a few. No way to fix that afaik.

This will install an app called "Rom Control". Swipe from left to open menu, go to "Miscellaneous" and there is an option called "Show more notification icons". I haven't tried it but this may be what you're looking for.
You guys, he said statusbar icons, not notification icons. To me that means the system icons on the right side.

Yes exactly, I tried that recommendation and it not only didn't work, but after a while it stopped showing my lte signal and moved battery percent to left of battery instead of where I had it on the right, like it randomly switched to demo mode.
I'm fine with the notification icons merging, but not my system icons.

Rom control is for stock, I believe.
I've never seen that many system icons. I might be able to help but I don't know I could even manage to get too many. How many icons before it goes to a dot? 6, 7?
Can you give me a screenshot?

Do you really need all of those system icons? If not, there's an app that you can use to remove some of them with.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zacharee1.systemuituner
I use it to hide the headphones icon (I can see the wire coming out of my phone I'm looking at it right now and I can hear the music coming from it) and also the alarm clock icon that is there even on weekends when I don't have alarms set. I know I have 3 alarms set for weekdays. I've had them for years. I don't need you to remind me.

I have clock as military time, battery percentage shown, LTE bars and icon, and it only takes 2 more for it to merge. And of course I know I can hide system icons? I want them. That's the problem. Android doesn't but I do.

There's probably no way to do it.
Let the notifications fill until you get a dot there.
That blank space is where sensors are.
