Hey guys, I know I might be a little picky, but here is my question.
In Jelly bean, the notification bar disappears when you drop down the notification center which only displays the date/settings option and ofcourse the notifications you might have. Notification bar works just fine on the lock screen and mainscreen, however, my theme does not permit me to make it visible on the mainscreen. This was not a problem on ICS, as the notification bar showed up just fine even with the notification center dropped down.
Is there a solution to this? I would really like to see my notification bar with my drop down center at the same time.
not to be nit picky, but notification center is the iOS copy of the notification panel from android.
Anyways, yes, it does make your notificaiton bar disappear, which is annoying since you dont see your signal, battery level, etc. I havent see anyway around this yet.

Where did iOS randomly come from? lol.
But yes, now we are unable to see signal, battery % etc from the notification drop down.

How are you able to get the notification panel to work on the lockscreen?

Right now my phone is not locked, that's why. But that is not the point, regardless of that I can still see my notification bar (signal/battery etc), I just want that notification bar to be shown when you have your notification center dropped down (this was normal on ICS, but they removed it in JB)

No one knows if there is a fix D:!?

Why does it need to be fixed? You can't live without battery or signal bars for few seconds?
well its a simple reason why they did this. with the notifications pulled down, you don't need to be looking at the top bar because all the notifications are in front of you anyway. and the date and time is also visible in the new notification shade as a bigger font.

What is the point of using Android then, if you cannot customize it to your own personal preference? I just want it to be more convenient. Especially since the only time I can see my notification bar is on the lock screen.....

Well it's not like its going to cause a huge problem if they left the bar as it was in ICS and every other android OS..... I don't particularly care about the date and time, I just want the wifi/3g signals to be clearly visible with other graphic notifications which don't show up in the notification panel drop down.
If u look closely the notification tray actually drops down and on top of the status bar and is partially transparent on the bottom half of the header.. so I think the answer is yes, in time maybe someone will do a fully transparent status bar header(hopefully getting rid of the second clock for my ocdness). Or something...

Yeah I just hope some one has a fix for this soon. I didn't see any reason for them to remove it in the first place.
I did not notice this until you pointed it out... How long do you stay with your notification bar down?

If you read the previous comments, you would see that I have a custom theme, requiring me to drop my notification bar down just to look at it... Or go to lock screen, which is extremely irritating whenever I want to see that useful info on my bar.
Obviously this doesn't apply to everyone, and I understand that. If I knew how to fix this myself, I would but alas I am a noob who is still trying to learn the way of Android

There might be a setting, Expanded Desktop! Turn it off!!!
If you use two fingers to pull the status bar, you can see the remaining battery and the signal at least

I agree!!! Lol...Its in the works...But if anyone has any idea to fix it please do tell. I was thinking about moving the date to the middle of the statusbar, just an idea..

all u have to do is give the date a different transparency and background color, like a half transparent black/white/whatever color so that it overlays anything behind it, this way when u pull down the notifications bar u can read the date, and when u push it back up everything is still clear

Might be a dumb question, but what do you mean by "overlap" stuff?
Id rather have a semi-transparent bar. Still black like the stock one.
If you have nothing important or relevant to say....best to say nothing at all

I had this same issue for a while. For me I found a way around it, maybe it will work for you. I ended up making the nav bar an image and the different colored icons part of the nav bar image. Then I made the actual icons transparent. As long as the icon order is the same as the order of the icons in the nav bar image, you would be good to go. You can see some examples here http://www.galaxynexusmods.com/nav-status-bars
Hope that helped. Let me know if you have any questions

Hey there everyone,
I was curious, is there a way to hide the time from the lock screen but keep it visible within the notification bar? If I hide the clock and my phone is lock I'd have to click the notification bar to see the time.
is there a way around this?
thanks!

No ideas? :crying:
so seeing the green bar isnt very helpful IMO. a percentage would be much greater. my phone is not "rooted" and i run apex launcher instead. is there a simple app to show me the percentage in my notification bar?
Yes there is one of my favorites is Battery Widget Reborn

you can try "settings extended"
it will also give you toggles in your notification tray. great app imo.
thanks guys, i will download both and play around with them.
the first app worked kind of. the percentage displayed on the left... but so did the battery bar on the right.
settings extended has the battery bar on the left too. but I don't understand the point of the app. it looks as if it's supposed to let me replace my notification bar with my own? but I don't understand how to do that

Have you tried Power Toggles? You get the battery percentage but also super useful toggles on the notification drop down for wifi, BT, brightness, volume etc....
So we can "hide" the notch which is fine but it will still use each side if the notch to show icons which I hate because it only shows like 2 icons on each side. Is there a way to disaply a full notification bar under the notch?
On the right side I see the battery icon and time and on the left I see the LTE with signal status so i basically leaves me with only 1 notification icon...
tap over status bar to xpand and see other notification icon

I know that but I prefer to see the icons without having to open the menu every time.

bcoz of notch thats not possible,i think
I just randomly found out that if you tap either side of the notch, it will display a second bar with the icons for 3 seconds
