Hi, I'm on CROMI 4.5 but the same issue was present on 3.x. Several times a day all icons in notification bar except clock and battery disappear and bar turns to non-responsive. Usually this happens few seconds after screen on. Back/Home icons on the left side work well btw. After some time icons may appear and bar becomes responsive.
Does anyone have any clues? Thanks!
I'm running SlimSaber-galaxys4gmtd-4.4.2-20140320.zip on an SGH-T959W.
A little while ago the status bar (bar at top with signal status, time etc.) auto hides after 3 seconds. I know that when i am in an app that kit-kat will hide the staus bar to conserve real estate and I like that but not when I am at the home screen or in apps list.
I know it was probably me that changed a setting but I can't find what it was and how to disable it.
Help .... please, pretty please.
Fixed it - found option where I can switch from "Normal" screen to "Extended" screen.
I need to block full screen mode for any App started in Android. That mean App can be opened, but status bar must be visible. I tried to search a lot of info, but still no luck. I found App that always showing status bar - but issue is, status bar have transparent color and full screen app is not attached screen, with that status bar.
I have root phone and can modify any settings, but can't update firmware. Also i tried to make overlay over screen, but still no luck, all app just ignore my overlay
Thanks
Hello,
I use an app called Display Brightness which allows me to toggle the brightness instantly with an overlay bar in the notification bar. I just installed it onto my S8+ and it doesn't appear within that notification bar, it displays it just under it which kind of ruins any apps that require text input at the top (which seems to be a lot).
Is there any reason for this? Or is there any alternative app which allows instantly display toggle from the notification bar?
Thanks

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Look at screenshots attached.
This is what i use
One app is called Lux Dash (Play Store)
Other snapshot is an app Shortcutter ((Play Store)
It might give you some idea what to do.
The built-in brightness bar can even be shown just above the notification bar, without having to expand the quick settings panel.
And apparently in the future Android O the TYPE_SYSTEM_OVERLAY will be deprecated and apps overlaying the status bar will no longer work.

Please delete this post, it duplicated for some reason after editing
Hmm that's disappointing that they are going to make this feature obsolete, this app has been by far the most useful ever, oddly, when I restart the S8, the brightness toggle overlay does appear in the notification bar but then after a few minutes, it appears further down again as shown in the screen shot.
This screen shot shows the S7 toggle bar working perfectly
This screen shot shows the S8 working less perfectly lol
I understand the default one can show at the top of the notifications bar but that requires the drawer being pulled down doesn't it? This app allows toggle immediately from the top of the phone on any app etc without any further touch
If i change my wallpaper to black or another color, on home screen the status bar cause an degrade effect on wallpaper, leaving a faded tone, only at the location of the status bar but only on home screen also. In apps tab its ok, on apps its ok. How can i fix that? Or is normal? Thanks!
same here i just noticed that with the latest update
