Any way to turn off the wifi arrows? - Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers

They are distracting. Looked everywhere, maybe command line?

Nope, not possible on Pie. Hopefully they'll remove them in Android 10..? Btw.thanks Sony, it's their stupid implementation ?

Why to remove it ? It is usefull

Because they are moving other status bar icons back and forth. I find it very disturbing. Arrows should be part of the network icon, current implementation is plain stupid.

Ok, i don't have many icons on status bar so it's not a issue for me, even if it is moving other icons i have never noticed it

Even if there's only one icon, the constant jumping was driving me crazy. I learned to tolerate it, but I would get rid of the arrows in a blink of an eye if that was possible.

Yeah, a bit annoying. On Nokia phones running Pie those arrows are part of the icon, the both wifi and cellular.

I disable the % of battery to save a little space. This helps when the icons are nearly full on the right half.
Or you may adjust the display size like the discussion here:

Hi there,
Got Android 10 Update. But the WiFi indicator is still there (
Any way to remove it now in Android 10 ?

Numeric Battery?

So, coming from an iPhone, the one thing I really miss is having a numeric battery. I was wondering if I could get the battery percentage on my status bar like I did on my iPhone.
I don't mean apps you download on the android marker that just has a battery notification that keeps displaying the percentage... but an actual mod made for the Samsung Vibrant that shows it next to the actually battery status on the top right of the status bar.
Sorry if I'm missing something huge here. Thanks!
If you check the Vibrant Theme and Apps section, you can find plenty of numerical battery mods.
Here's an example of one:

Thanks a bunch!
Just ran this, and it looks fantastic... much better than that of the iPhone.
The FrankinTwiz ROM has a numeric battery icon. Be careful with the circular battery mod and other mods for the status and notification bars as they clashed for me and caused a startup loop that prevented the phone from finishing the startup.

I will be wary of that. Hopefully this is the only mod I will apply to my status bar... so things should be ok.
With Frankin-Wiz you just have to make sure you flash the correct version to the correct Rom. Been there and boot looped.

Trust me, I started out with this little mod too.. but I couldn't stop myself after that
I'm trying to stay away from flashing ROMs because my Vibrant is hardware locked though.

[Q] Is there a way to be able to show both the batttery status AND the digital clock?

As you may know, the top black bar is showing your bluetooth, wifi, signal strength, and battery icons. However you have a choice between the digital clock or your battery status (almost like a togge). I know that the reason of the toggle and not allowing both is a space issue, but i never use bluetooth and i would much rather have a clock and battery status insted of a useless bluetooth one. Is there a way to put both clock AND battery icons on the top?
BattClock.
You can download a custom taskbar I use diniks taskbar
Battclock is the best.
below is my post configuring Battclock to suit my needs,
you can check the whole thread and c other possibilities.

Google Batt line service
It puts a very thin line above the task bar and represents the charge on your battery, it totally kicks ass, I used it always before I switched to the newer 6.5.x builds.
You will love it.

[MOD][XPOSED][KK] GPSNotification - Bring back the GPS Icon

As I upgraded to KitKat I wondered why the GPS Icon in the statusbar is replaced by this "new" thing.
I wanted my old GPS Icon back!
Well here it is!

Show some love by staring the repo. Thanks!
Perfekt. Thank you!
Thank you for this !

Nice module but...

Hey, ya i see. Try to start any app that uses gps and quit it. It will be gone. Its a bug i will fix it in a few days.
// EDIT:
Fixed
Thanks, that is fixed - great module.
There is a little cosmetic change I'd like but not sure you can fix it.
I have GravityBox installed (of course!) and the Data Traffic Monitor turned on. I have it's position set to Right and it normally displays to the left of the Wifi icon in the statusbar which is perfect.
However, the GPS icon now displays between them, to the left of the Wifi icon with the data traffic information to the left of the GPS icon. Not ideal, as the data traffic information should ideally be next to the Wifi icon.
I could set the GPS icon to Left Position but I want all these icons on the right of the statusbar not in the notification area.
Thanks

This is not possible, since the module uses the internal GPS class. And the position is fixed.

You have to launch an app that's using the GPS module to see the icon blink during the fix acquisition
i opened the app GPS Test Plus and there was the status gps: On
And my sygic navigation also said gps is working. but still no blinking icon in the status bar

About the NOTCH

Is there any way we can actually disable the notch, I mean literally make it black and move the status bar below the notch , just like on normal smartphones?. Will that be possible with some mod in the future,or does such a thing already exist?
That is a nice solution but they would have to write code to disable the touch completely in that area and a lot of work will be involved in case an app tries to fill that area. Xiaomi doesn't likes to work, and they create more bugs with every fixes. I am not even mentioning how odd that will look, Xiaomi doesn't likes to work but they do care about the design and want their devices to be elegant. I have never never seen such a great looking cheap casing ever in my life, even Samsung can't achieve that.

I still don't see what the big deal is. You can see the icons if you slide down the notification bar. It's a little inconvenient but not at all frustrating or unacceptable. Sure they can fix that to some extent in the future through an update but it definitely is not a deal breaker. Using an IOS device for an Android User, That's Frustrating.

I didn't receive my poco yet, does it have a notification preview for the lock screen? Coz I put my phone on the office and see details of incoming notification, if each time I get a notification I need to unlock and slide, that's a big deal for me

There's no issue with lock screen Notifications. You can use Settings>Lock Screen & password>Wake Lock screen for notifications.

Raised my voice to POCO on status bar thing,
https://twitter.com/jaimani/status/1036965116053311493?s=20
Let's see what they do.
No notification on status bar due to the notch is realy frustrating. Hardly 4 days of usage, I miss those notification icons on status bar. Its like they skipped step 1 for achieving god_knows_what. I have literally started hating the phone in 4 days itself. Trust me, its beyond frustrating. Its like you went back to Symbian OS -_-. How can they miss out on such a basic and addictive utility?!

Probably for the same reason they waste time to badly redesign Android's user interface instead of just using the standard Google layout.
At that point, that's the only reason I'm not buying this phone, until we see AOSP ports.
Would have been a no brainer if it was shipped with Android One instead of MIUI.
Well according to me, this might be the best way to overcome the notification icons problem.

I have exactly the same query. On checking several posts on internet, i have realized that 'Fullscreen' doesn't imply 'Include the notch' for notched phones. Am i wrong?
If there's only a way to include notch in all apps(playing video and games too) rather than excluding it. Seems like inclusion of notch as a part of screen for the complete UI in Poco would give a much better experience.

EMUI 9: Return Network & Wifi icons to right of notification bar

Ahoy, XDA.
My Huawei Mate 10 pro recently updated itself to EMUI 9 (Android 9) and one change is really annoying me quite a bit: the network and wifi indicator icons are now positioned with the other, transient notification icons on the left hand side of the notification bar.
How can I move these indicators back to their proper place: the right hand corner?
I have been using Android since 2010 and, seriously, I never asked for and don't want such a pointless change. I like to have the left hand corner clean -- meaning all transient notifications have been dealt with.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It only simulates having a notch, which makes no sense at all when the phone doesn't have one, and it makes the statusbar icons lower

Thats why there is at the end of sentence . As huawei has ton of phones with notch i guess it was easier for them to make same layout across all phones.

I just received the update today. Saturday January 26th. Certain icons to the right don't bother me either.
It appears that they made the active icons to the left and the static ones, i.e., battery and time to the right. Seems logical to me and less clutter on one side only.
Any solucion?
My Mate10pro was automatically updated with emui9 as well. I agree that the mobile network and wifi status icons are VERY ANNOYING on the left side. In my understanding the status bar should show status icons on the right and notifications on the left side. It is simple as that.
Any idea how to fix this and return the icons to their proper place???!
