I know this may sound odd, but I'd really like an app that shows time in notification bar BESIDES the original time showing on the right side od notification bar. I'd like it showing on the left. I have some sort of vision problem, I can see better things on the left, strange I know.... So is there one please?

I dont know of one, but how about using a clock widget?
I know its not exactly what you asked for, but could a widget to the left of the screen help?

I am using Sky's ICS for the Skyrocket SG2. Ive flashed the latest update for the ROM and have a second, what seems to be, a status bar underneath the regular status bar, with just a battery icon. I can't seem to find whatever program is running that app to turn it off. Anyone know what or how to shut off that status bar?
Its battery status bar. TO remove it dload the battery bar.apk and you can remove it using the app.

I installed the battery bar.apk and went into the app. All it had was to hide the white battery bar at the top. I went through all the settings in the app and can't seem to find an option to remove the battery status bar =\.
it s the first option on the app where it says show battery bar just uncheck the box.

Yah that The "show battery bar" check box just hides the white bar at the very top of my phone. I'd post a picture but the forum won't let me =\. But yah its a battery bar UNDER the regular status bar.
So you got rid of it rite and the solution worked if it did hit that thnx button it helps to know someone appreciate the info.

Uh no it didn't fix the problem. I think there is a slight miscommunication somewhere here. I am having issues with the battery under my original status bar. It doesn't seem to be related with the battery bar mod. The battery bar mod seems to control the white bar up top which I already knew how to alter. It's this one that is right under my regular status bar. I'd post a pic but it requires that I not suck and have more than 8 post lol.
What is the problem with that battery icon?

I want it to go away. It's kinda redundant. I have the circle battery already I don't need a second battery icon underneath is =\
if your using sky ics rom with ics launcher then go hit menu then launcher settings then launcher status bar settings and uncheck show status bar (launcher)
Should take care of it.
OMG thank you! that fixed it! +1 thanks really appreciate it

if you are on stock you just have to pull down twice to get the status bar
i think gravitybox can do what you need though

I have just updated the firmware on the SM-G955F and used the hide option for the Nav bar.
I now have a burn in for the Nav bar. Definitely obvious on any whitish background.
Anyone with the same issue?
Nope.

You dont have burn in on the nav bar, you have burn in on the rest of the screen. the nav bar is the non burnt bit, assuming your nav bar was black of course.
Get AMOLED Burn-In Fixer from the play store. I occasionally runnitnon my Pixel XL to reduce/eliminate burn in. Works really well. I turn my brightness up all the way, and either set the screen timeout to 30 minutes, or use developer options to keep the screen on while charging, then I just run the app overnight while I'm asleep. Screen down so it doesn't light up my room.
I'm sure it will work on the S8+ as well.

I don't know where you got that information, but that is not correct.
I took my phone to a Service Center and they replaced the screen on account of burn in.

That's impossible. The navbar buttons more around over time slightly so there isn't any burn in. If burn in was an issue then your status bar would be F'd.

Do you already have it back and is your screen better overall? No red tint anymore when tilted?
when in doubt throw it out, meaning warranty exchange or refund. end the pain before it continues

no option to hide unless you got adb and fastboot command lines to do so. here in the usa no one has that update yet. im using abd and fastboot PC app to use commands. ive had bar hidden for 48 days.

Is there any way to make the Navigation bar Black. I have tried substratum themes like swiftblack, pitchblack.. etc but couldnt get it themed. I have also tried xposed module (BlackNavigationBarfor 5t) which does work but it makes the recents kill button vanish.
Thanks.

I'm using "Navbar Apps", works quiet well, but doesn't do the job flawlessly. From time to time you'll get the white navbar.

Ur too noob maybe. When the keyboard pops up it goes white and at many instances.
"BlackNavigationBar 1.0.7" Xposed module is only thing that helped me to make this damn navbar to be always black and "gravitybox" helped to make those damn buttons black as well. Only unfortunately gravitybox does not have an option to make buttons to be transparent.
I do not understand why is it so difficult for google to make proper black theme with white text and icons. As well Oneplus is struggling to make the same damn thing.
In order to just get a simple the same interface from device to device I am always have to use multiple third party software.
I have not tried on OP6 but the following commands worked on my Samsung S8+. It should also work on OP6.
Command: adb shell
Command :settings put global navigationbar_color -16449536 (2 spaces after the word color)
Command: settings put global navigationbar_current_color -16449536 (2 spaces after color)

Did you try the settings on the OP6 yet, and if so did you try them on PIE?
they did not work for me.

Sorry, I did not as I use Gestures along with Nova launcher. Have not felt the necessity to go back to a true navigation bar. Also the commands I mentioned were for Oreo.
Try nacho notch on play store. It works really well. If you don't want it to affect your status bar just set its height at 0. (To change settings long press on the quick settings icon)

That's very generic. Please be specific as to what you mean by "app's settings." I want to make the nav bar black under one global setting not fish around on a per application basis. For example the play store, gmail, chome and firefox the nav bar changes color I want it to remain black at all times.

It has an option called "Black-Out Navigation Bar" which does nothing when enabled... I even rebooted the phone... The irony here is while running nacho notch the nav bar remains white.
