I searched on here, but couldn't seem to find it.. I've looked in the manual, but nothing.
When you click the top banner bar it takes you to the notification screen, even when you click on the battery. I just wanted to know if there was a way to check the battery without just relying on the 4 bars?
The notification screen tells you the battery % remaining, and if you click it it takes you to the battery option.

Press the start menu in the top left of your home screen. Choose "settings", then choose the "system" tab. On there you will find an icon labeled "power". That will take you to a 10%-increment battery meter.
Yeah, I was hoping there was a better way to look at it than having to go through all that every time.
I guess on the sprint version it doesnt show it in the notification screen..
You are right, it's not on the Sprint version.
You could intall the 1% increment battery driver and a custom taskbar that shows the percentage of the battery.
thats too much work.. and I kinda like the normal htc taskbar.. ah well
The 1%-driver will only change the look of your power-info....not the whole taskbar!

person 2: "install this and you will have it the way you want it"
person 1: "thats too much work and im lazy, besided i like it the way it is now anyways"
I installed batti and really like it.
It's a really small prog that displays a color-coded bar across the top of the screen. You can adjust colors, bar thickness, and when it shows up and when it doesn't. give it a shot.

its not at all that im lazy, its that I like the original taskbar that comes with the phone.
I've done that with previous phones I've had.. and to tell you the truth, most of the task bars that people "think" look cool just make it look weird and gaudy.
for once, I want to install as little tweaks as possible to the phone to get it the way I want. I was just simply seeing if there was something I was missing with regarding to checking the battery status. On ANY other PPC I've had, all I had to do was click on the little battery icon and it would do the job for me.. but not this one. Thats it

You could extract the file(s) and change them yourself if you don't like the taskbars out there. I can't remember the exact file name(s), but you can do a search and there is a thread floating out there that tells you how to edit them.
my screen calibration was off just a touch so everytime i hit the battery icon it took me to the running programs tab. just my .02
For anyone looking to change their status bar, I strongly suggest BATTI. It is one of the first things I install whenever I flash a rom. You can customize the colors and actions, and with the 1% cab installed, it gives a pretty accurate battery reading at just a touch. One last thing, it will warn me when I hit MY low settings (ones I stated, not that Tmous or HTC set).
I wish I could remember the original thread, but I have had this for years (on my Wizard). I'd be happy to upload the cab if after a search you cannot find it.
i am not looking for an application. i want to just display the percentage number close to the battery icon on the top task-bar. an application, even with a live title for displaying some info is not convenience.
thanks,
still can not make the top bar

This is a good app
Moved to WP7 Software development
All software requests go in WP7 software development please.
Take it easy

i appreciate your help. i know this application is good (according to lots of people's feedback) but it is not convenient. basically if i go the setting> battery saver, i can see the percentage number over there too. i really do not think an independent application just showing the percentage value make any sense. by the way, the live title will drain the miserable battery which is not what i want.
again, i appreciate your input.
to bad, MS can not implement such easy task.

The background service runs once every 30 minutes, updates the tile and stops again. That's not really draining the battery

Its doable. Since xboxmod has already made a custom taskbar which has to be installed via his cab only available on certain roms though.
I tried really quick couple weeks ago to edit his icons with my own to have him resign it. They are located in a DLL just like windows mobile. When I made my own taskbar back then there was an icon for each 1% increment. Now back then there was a separate reg edit to get the % to show on the taskbar. But you could just use gimp and make a transparent layer with the % over the existing icon after using Reshacker( that's what I used couple weeks ago and couldn't find the icons, though worked fine on wm, possibly not able to read wp7 dll's ????) to extract the icons from the dll, then replacing the icons in the DLL after you add the % layer.
Would take a while. Just nobody has done it yet. If someone can tell me how/ where to get the icons from xboxmods taskbar I'd take on the task, might take a week or so though.

Hi everyone, just got LG G7 from tmobile. I am confused, almost on every picture on the internet I see battery percentage in the top right corner of the screen. In my case in order for me to see battery % I need to pull down the notification panel. Is there a way to fix that? I already went to battery settings and switched on the option to show the battery % in notifications panel. Please help.

I was about to post the same question so I'm looking for the answer too...
If you go into Settings and then Battery, there is a toggle that says "Battery Percentage on status bar".

Ok, I was just messing with it and you are right. It will never show it in the notch but it toggles that option in the notification drop down.
I love the phone, but seriously, what is the point of calling this a second screen if you still have to pull down the notification bar to see the icons?
I hope they add an option for always show icons....

Hmm, that is kind of odd. I wonder the reasoning for the bug on T-Mobile version?
Oh you know what, he's right. I been too busy gaming to realize it shows all the time outside of games.
Well as you can see in the screenshot below, it does not show up on the T-Mobile version of the G7

I have T-Mobile variant and it does show on mine. Did you update the device?
I'm on T-Mobile, and it's showing just fine for me, no pull-down required. Toggling "Battery percentage on status bar" in Settings | Battery toggles it off and on (for me, anyway).
I did a factory reset and now I have the percentage in the notification bar. Perhaps it a bug??
Has to do with display size. Turn it all the way down.

You need to enable two things for this to work.
Go into Settings and then Battery and turn on "Battery percentage on status bar". \
You also need to select Standard from New Second Screen settings.

Ok tried everything. The only solution that works is to go to display settings and move the slider all the way to the left, the smallest size. Nothing else will work.

Now the question is, how do you make display size bigger without loosing the battery % in the notification panel? ?

Custom Rom.
Oi, mates.
So, as we all know, the OP6T has a notch. Issue with it compared to Google's native software implementation is that the status bar mostly behaves like the notch isn't there.
If we take a look at the developer options, we can simulate a display cutout with the "Double display cutout" which realigns the status bar and gives it more breathing space. Unfortunately, that also makes the notch bigger as the OS simulates the bigger notch.
I've attached screenshots of both of the layouts.
If someone could possibly modify the layout to use a layout made for notches, I'd really really appreciate it. I believe this can be achieved via a substratum theme or a Magisk module that utilises the OOS.
If I'm being unclear or you're wondering something regarding the simulated notch (maybe using OSS to patch out the black bar so it's invisible?) Then please let me know and I'll try to elaborate.
Thank you in advance and I'm really hoping someone will fullfil the request.
Bump
The status bar is already tall enough to accommodate the notch, what exactly are you asking for?

I'm asking for an option to use the stock AOSP layout.
It might be nice if it also aligned with the end of the corner radius, as at the moment there's still a bit of dispay curve below the status bar and it kind of looks sloppy.

The AOSP implementation is to make the status bar as tall as the notch, which is what they are currently doing. I don’t see what you think the benefit will be if extra space is added.

Why would you want the status bar Taller then the notch. Makes no sense

I did. Since your the only person that would want something weird like that I very much doubt someone is going to take the time to make a useless mod
I think you're being 100% unclear as to what benefit what your asking for even has. Out of the box implementation is just fine in mine and probably nearly everyone but yourself book. If you want someone to go out of their way to make something you might want to give an actual use case for what your asking for or it's unlikely anyone will even try. Just my 2 cents though.

It's literally the way AOSP is. I use Google's gestures too, which people usually dislike even though OnePlus gestures are available. Why would I do that? Because I want a stock setup. Android is about choice, not "why that's pointless". Do you attack all those people with custom Zelda themed battery indicators and odd icon packs?
You can literally toggle this layout. Only issue is that you get a bigger notch.

What if people would like a stock layout? It's literally how Google implemented it. OnePlus modified it on top of what Google made (they basically removed it altogether but whatever)
Why would someone want a taller status bar? It's nothing but a waste of screen space. If anything, I'm trying to find a way to hide the status bar and display apps underneath the notch as if it doesn't exist.

I'm not trying to be rude or anything here just trying to help, I guess I just don't get why what we have doesn't work for you. Maybe an AOSP rom would have what your looking for (pixel experience did release).

That's what YOU prefer. Why is it so hard to grasp your mind around my preference? I prefer my status bar to be at a good position according to the curvature of the display. I work as a UX designer, and things like this bother me. I'd like to see if someone could take a look at this because it's a fairly simple task.
I didn't ask for your opinion, so please, just leave.

That's the thing, I like the stability and battery life of the stock ROM. + smart boost is a nice thing to have with 8GB of RAM. I don't think any other ROM (unless stock-based) will have those features. I literally just want a Pixel skin slammed on top of OxygenOS to revert what OnePlus changed. Someone will likely respond with "you should have bought a Pixel" but let's hope not.
Android is about freedom, right? That's why I'm asking for help to customise it to my liking. It's not even a big request.

Even the simplest of modifications can be a royal nightmare to implement my friend. I might poke around a bit when I get off work and see what I can come up, mainly out of curiosity lol. Don't hold your breath though so it's been ages since I worked on Android.

No worries, cheers. I know small stuff can cause lots of trouble, but from what I've seen, every single one of these cutout simulations are APKs with resources in them. Using OSS to replace their backgrounds to transparent ones would possibly work, but it's just a theory. I appreciate it

I would like to make a suggestion.
I tried it, and I like it. However, during charging, on the lock screen, there should be an option to show or not show the ring. Right now, I use a black screen saver to save my screen from burn-in (the lower part showing the charge percentage), but with the app, the ring remains when the black screen saver is running, which kind of defeating my original intent to save the screen.
Other than that, it is a very cool app.
Now to disable the stock battery icon...
Got it, love it. Have it set up for 4 different colors at 4 different percentages and honestly, it's really cool. I dont need my battery percent on my active notification panel so my upper-screen looks less clittered!

Pretty sure you can do this with GoodLock (from the Samsung Store) and one of its plugins. It allows you to show/hide all of the system icons and move the clock around.
The plugin you want is called QuickStar.
I just tried this App for the S10 linked in the OP and love the idea. It would also be a great notification indicator, as I noticed the S10s no longer have a status LED.
May be nice to somehow incorporate a numeric percentage somewhere, maybe above the camera hole where there is dead space.

Thanks for the tip. I downloaded GoodLock, but can't seem to find the QuickStar plugin. I find the plugin through the Galaxy Store, and not through the GoodLock app, right?
