Greets, I hope this is the right department, I've gleaned a lot from this site and have nothing but respect and appreciation, thanks!
I have a CAT S60, 6.0.1 unrooted and I can't get the battery percentage to display (outside of 1 swiping) I do have the stupid battery level icon and it stupidly does display a level that changes as battery drains. Here's what I've tried so far:
System UI activated and shows the switch for "Show embedded battery percentage" but turning it on and reboot, still no percentage.
Tried with and without developer options activated
Installed an app called "Percent Enabler" That puts a number inside the battery level icon that I just noticed is no longer doing so but so what.
Checked battery settings. No option
There us no settings for status bar
Checked display settings. No option
Looked through developer opt... you know what? I did not look through developer options. Can you hang on a second? Thanks!
Nope or at least nothing I recognized as battery percentage display stuff.
Searched here and found some info but none seems to apply. It probably is here somewhere but I can't seem to find it! Any help would be super appreciated and I'm ready to do a factory reset if needed. Thanks!

I want the time to show up on the title bar in all programs. I checked this option, but it is not working. I have restarted the phone, but nothing. When I go into the clock settings, the time DOES show up in the title bar, but when I close the settings, it is no longer there. Any ideas?
I have this option selected as well and it is working just fine. Maybe you have it disabled in a registry setting or in Advanced Config somewhere?
Ok, it's getting stranger. I went into the Today Settings, under Items, I checked Date to appear on the Today screen. That solved my problem; however, now when I go into the Today settings, Date is unchecked, but is still showing up on the Today screen (which is fine with me, just weird.) Hmmm.
It's not showing in TF3D title bar. Everywhere else it appears to show up.
I'm enabling it under settings/system/clock though.

If you are using a battery monitor that might replace the clock in TF3D. Also, Advanced Config under Today, you can specify if you want clock or battery to show on the Today screen.
How can I enable the battery percentage on my Pixel?
Swipe the notification tray down.
Then hold the setting button, it looks like a bolt or cog.
Hold it for a few seconds the let go.
You'll see system tuner pop up in setting menu.
Tap that and go to status bar and it'll be at the bottom.
Good luck!

That requires a modification. If you care to and are rooted, flash this via Twrp. Select the very last option first (base). Hit finish, on next screen select check box at the top and hit finish again. This time select either percent with battery icon or without. Hit finish and finish again. Always make a backup first.
There are other mods in the theme section that will get you there too.

Might help to install busybox into system first

Edit: I might have misunderstood. The systemui tuner method will give percent inside the battery. The mod method gives you percentage beside or instead of the battery icon.
Thanks. I may root it soon.
i have no mods and battery percentage...its an option in setting like the first reply suggested

I see. That's inconvenient though.

Why is is inconvenient? Perhaps you misunderstood? Pull down the notification area, press and hold the settings icon until you see a message that says system tuner has been enabled (or some such thing). Then go into settnigs, scroll to the bottom and you'll see system tuner there. Touch it and enable the battery percentage there. It puts the percentage in the battery icon in the status bar. Only has to be done once.

Wow, thanks!!! Clearly I misunderstood and never knew this hidden feature.

Hey I just came over from Sprint and got the Pixel. I am 100% stock unrooted and long pressing the settings icon does nothing. I have even found a YouTube video showing this method and it simply doesn't work. I am on the latest February patch, could this patch have changed this and it's no longer available? Not knowing the percentage on the fly kinda sucks.

It should still work but I've heard stories of some people both on Nexus 5X and Pixel having difficulties getting it activated.
Hello everyone. Just quick help. With Nougat 7, now i get every time a stupid vibration with a notificaiton saying the following:
Extend your battery life: and it will tell me one app is draining my battery.
How can I stop this from showing? I have held the notification and search every where. I cant find any where how to prevent for this to show ever again.
Thanks in advance.
I'm having the same issue and it will drive me out of using Android phones. This last update is a nightmare.
I second the request for a way to disable the constant pestering. Thank you !
Settings> Device Management> Battery>
Press the menu button on the right hand sign (looks like three dots)
Click Advanced Settings
Toggle off App Power Monitor
Done!
The wifi and cellular signal meter icons are missing on my primary user profile. They are shown when logged in as a different user. Is this normal?

This isn't normal, you could try deleting and recreating your profile since it seems to work as a different user or doing a factory reset if you're paranoid about what may have caused the issue in the first place.
Google chat support also suggested a factory reset after safe mode and resetting network settings, so it looks like that's the plan. Just added a user to my 5x and the wifi icons are shown in both profiles.

Those things can be turned on or off in the system ui tuner in settings. You don't see it in settings by default though so unless you've already enabled it you'll have to do that first. Pull down the notification bar so you can see your quick toggles and then press and hold the settings icon at the top right until you see a message about system tuner being enabled. Then go in settings and you'll find it near the bottom. See if they are disabled in there. If not, try toggling them on. If they are already on try toggling them off and then on again and see if that works. If not, maybe try toggling them off, reboot and toggle them back on.

Thanks robocuff!
I had system ui tuner enabled for a while now. Disabled and the icons reappeared. Re-enabled and they are still there, no reboot required. For good measure, I removed the wifi and cellular data tiles, an still have the icons.
It's unfortunate that google support suggests a factory reset when there is a much quicker and less intrusive method to correct this issue.
