Bluetooth devices battery level not showing - Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers

Does anyone know how to show the battery level next to the bluetooth icon on the status bar? It worked fine on my old OnePlus 5T phone with the same devices I use to connect on the Xperia 5 II.
Additionally, how do we enable System UI Tuner? When I tap and hold on the settings cog in the notifications panel, nothing happens!

Hi, if it's any like my xperia 5mk1 then I'm afraid you won't be able to se battery level next to the bluetooth icon on the status bar. However you can see battery level of Bluetooth device on the Bluetooth toggle if you just half swipe down notifications shade.

I'm sure you've found this yourself but in the case of the System UI Tuner try these options. I used the Nova Launcher method
Enable System UI Tuner on Android 11 and 10
System UI Tuner is gone from Android 11 and 10? Long-pressing config gear gives no effect? You no longer can control what (and how) is displayed in your status bar in Android device? Well… no…

ANDROID 6 System tuner UI battery percentage not present?

I didn't find any way to enable battery percentage on 6.0. Android M is supposed to have battery percentage built in system ui tuner. I know there is an app on play store but it displays small percentage number inside the battery icon. Is there another alternative to display battery percentage without 3rd party app?
EDIT: The developer options and System UI Tuner are two different options. To Enable system UI tuner. Swipe down your notification window from top. Touch and hold the gear icon for 10 seconds and then release the icon. Enable the battery percentage in System UI tuner
It's there. Have you enabled the system ui tuner? It's shown as a new menu entry under "about phone" in the menu, at least for me.

Not sure if it is version specific, but the XT-1540 System UI Tuner has the option to show the battery percentage. The percentage is shown in the battery icon. I believe that is all that is supported without using a third party app.

In the quick settings, press and hold the system icon for 10 seconds to enable system tuner. Then you will have the option to enable battery percent in system tuner.
Wow, I didn't know that existed. Glad to know it does. @Yousvel method worked for me.

Thanks. I thought developer options was the same thing as the System UI tuner in 6.0. I enabled it now but it the percentage is still embedded inside the battery icon and it is very small. They should add a big battery percentage alongside battery icon in the next release.

This percentage symbol is just something that has been built into pure AOSP Android since KitKat... this toggle is nothing but an enable/disable (it is disabled by default). It performs the exact same function as Battery Percent Enabler, Moto doesn't mess with the UI much, if at all.

Better this small one than nothing. It was not there before!

Questions about virtual buttons and battery percentage

Hello.
I received the Google Pixel two days ago and I am having a hard time to find the setting for the percentage of the battery to appear and to change the positions of the virtual buttons (if this is possible at all).
I appreciate any help
swipe down on quick panel, hold gear icon for a few settings. You'll get a notification that system tuner has been enabled. You will see the system tuner near developer options at bottom in settings. From there its self explanatory.
Thanks. It works for percentage, but there is no way to change the position of the virtual buttons?
you just drag and drop them wherever you want
Hey there u can reverse the buttons I used this in on Verizon pixel. Worked great

Help remove this system Icon please

So I just updated to .386 via OTA.
Upon reboot I tinkered with the settings>display>system icons and ended up keeping them all on as they were (screenshot attached.)
Anyway after this, automatically appears a 'rotation system icon' like magic. It disappears when I turn rotation to on. When set to off the icon appears (screenshot attached.)
I dont like this, and I assume this is not normal behaviour, I must have unlocked it when switching on and off the system icon tick box list. Annoyingly.
Can anyone advise how I might reverse or remove this icon...
It's the default behavior, but you can remove in the System UI Tuner.
To enable System UI Tuner, pull down your notification shade and long-press on the Settings gear icon for up to 5 seconds (it will start to turn/rotate). Once you let go, you should see a pop-up with the message “Congrats! System UI Tuner has been added to Settings.” And as that message suggests, you can head into settings, scroll to the bottom, and find an option for System UI Tuner.
Inside it, you will be able to remove some Status Bar icons.

System UI Tuner: Hide battery icon under Android 10

Hi!
Since my update to Android 10 it's not possible anymore to hide the battery icon in statusbar. I don't need it because I use a battery bar.
All other switches are working fine.
Can someone confirm that and/or has a solition?
Can confirm the issue. Possible solution is to blacklist the battery icon manually through adb.

That didn't work for me. It changes only the triggers in System UI Tuner.
I hope for a future update...

How to know which app as put up a specific status bar icon?

Hi all!
Does anyone know if there's a built-in way, or an app, that I can use to find out what app has put an icon on the status bar?
For example, there's currently an "alarm clock" icon in my status bar, but I didn't set an alarm on anything. I'm wonder what app placed it there.
Any way I can find out which app did it?
This is on a Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact running Android 10.

Settings > Apps & Notifications > Notifications ?

That'd be great, except it's not a notification, it's not on the notification bar, it's on the status bar (right side). Notification settings doesn't show anything from that side of the bar.
Unless I'm sadly mistaken? Care to elucidate?

I'm not on your device so I can't say for certain. Maybe Settings > Display > Status Bar ?

I don't think I've seen any such thing, unfortunately.

Ok, it turns out it was the latest update to DejaOffice - it DOES show alarms/notifications, but since the update, it's showing an alarm icon in the status side of the top/status/notification bar, and not showing a notification. Opening the app does nothing to dispell the alarm icon. I had to go through and kill all of my apps, one at a time, to figure out which app it was.
Now I'll post on the DejaOffice forum about this.
