Yup, at least on mine it looks like the developer settings notch switched to tall will show more icons. See screenshots. Obviously the notch is not shown on the screenshots but you see an extra icon on the status bar.
This would mean that default settings doesn't actually show the entire display and that Google did some software rounding with extra black space... Weird

if using nacho notch, does that affect the overall number of icons on either side?
I see the same thing; more icons fit (on the right at least) with "tall."
I don't have enough notifications yet to see if there are more.
However, I assume you people see that when it's on tall, the notch actually extends lower - into the status/notification area (when you pull down)?
The icons are small enough and the space big enough, why don't they just wrap to show 2 rows of icons? Or would that be crazy?
I think two rows of icons would look weird. Even at the smallest display size, I think they would be too crowded.
I just tested the Tall option and I get one more icon on the left vs the regular mode. If I use the small display size, I get the same. The normal out of the box mode shows three total, meaning two and a dot when you have more. With Tall or small I get three and a dot. With Small AND Tall, I get four and a dot.
I'd like to remove the clock. I don't use it much and would rather have more icons. With a persistent media player, I'm left with few spots left for other notifications.

I'm making a Windows Mobile 6.5 theme for my X1. (Kinda obvious)
I like to fiddle with transparency and whatnot, so I changed the title bar that's used for notifications and popup windows to 75% transparency.
All works well, except the fact that when a popup is opened, it (being the title bar) isn't transparent because the body of the popup is under the title bar image. So I thought "No big, I'll get rid of some of the top."
Unfortunately, Windows Mobile stretches the images it uses for the themes and whatnot, so either there's a huge gap in between both images (title bar and image), or the body image is under the title bar once again if it's shrunken. One example of this is the warning notification for nueClockControl:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The only way this works perfectly is the message box for text messages and other notifications on the bottom of the window:
My guess is that my attempt isn't really possible, because Windows stretches the images to fit the text and whatnot.
If it is possible, or someone has an idea of what I'm trying, let me know. I'll continue developing this theme if it is.
it's true the system seem like will stretch the msgbox. it happened to me too. whenever i'll try to put some images on it, than the size changing (according to texts). maybe there is some other way with registry tricks. But i don't have a clue about that since i'm just a skinner But the idea about making the msgbox title transparant was good. maybe i can adapt it one day.

Android devices are meant for multitasking. Some devices, like the Galaxy Note 2,
are specifically designed to launch two apps, or more, at the same time.
The Google Play Store also offers a variety of multitasking apps to allow
you to multitask on your device. The FlipLauncher app is a multitasking app
that allows you to group your favorite apps or shortcuts and access them
from wherever on your device.
get the extremely usefull app HERE
When you launch FlipLauncher in portrait mode, 6 colored bars (i use one) will appear
on the left side of your screen. These bars serve as your virtual drawer
containing your apps and shortcuts. Just swipe to open those bars.
You can set up to 4 apps or shortcuts on each bar, giving you a total
of 24 apps or shortcuts.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The app also allows you to personalize the bars on your device’s screen.
You can change a bar’s color, adjust its width, set its placement, and
set its opacity. You can even disable one or two bars. These virtual drawers
really look like the Multi Window feature of the Galaxy Note 2 but arranged horizontally.
The app also has a different layout when you hold your device in landscape mode.
In this screen orientation, 4 colored bars (again i only use one) will appear on the left
side of the screen. Each bar allows you to place 6 apps or shortcuts, giving you still a
total of 24 apps.Just like the previous orientation, you can still change a bar’s color,
transfer the bar to the opposite side, adjust its width, and set its opacity. You can also
remove some bars according to your liking.

I know basically an burn in isn't good, but how much do people have before they've return the phone. I've had the XL 13 days today, and wondering if I should contact Google about the amount of burn I can see in my phone. I keep the brightness on my phone at 50% all the time and seems like a good amount of burn for being at 50% all the time.
Took a couple pics on a grey background, hopefully it visible. I looked on a couple other phones and I can see it in the pics moving the screen side to side a bit helps notice it, depending on the phone.
Bottom:

Even if I had that burn in it wouldn't bother me but when I do the burn in test I can see what looks like burn in at first but then it goes away after a few minutes.
Google RMA any instance of burn in.
I'm on my second exchange. I've decided to keep this one for a few months to wait to see if manufacturing improves then exchange later.
Hopefully in 2018 when we RMA, Google may exchange for the Pixel 3 like they did with Nexus 6P and the original Pixel.
Any burn in is bad. Especially this early
Although many use the term "burn in" it's actually the reverse of that. As the navigation bar is black most of the time, it means the pixels in that part of the screen never light up. As a result they wear off more slowly than the rest of the screen, showing discrepancy against a uniform colour/image, especially grey.
I use Navbar Apps which automatically changes the colour of the nav bar based on the app, it simply means the pixels in that section light up and the wear is similar to the rest of the screen, minimising any appearance of "burn in".
Hi everyone, anyone else got this device?? The grey navigation bar at the bottom is annoying and doesn't fit. It should just be black. I tried an app from the play store to change color but it only changes the very thin bar where the gesture hint is, not the wider grey space under it. Any tricks to make it black all the time?
Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about, drives me bonkers.

High contrast areas that are fixed on an oled screen will become burned in over a couple years.
You want it black now.. But it will be visible when rotating the screen if it was.
Even being grey won't fully save it but it should make it much less noticeable unless you're always viewing black content. So maybe silver lining?
Hi,
I recently bought a Poco F3 and something that bugs the hell out of me is the notification icons, that they are in different shapes and sizes, which also causes the text in the notifications to not align to each other (see the image below). Is there any way to make this universal, so that it sticks to round icons and the same sizes for all? I tried switching to different themes, which only changes some icon shapes, but never from messaging apps where a profile picture is shown, they always stay squared and very big compared to other apps. Which is strange because inside the apps the profile pictures are round...
Any fix for this? If not, is it possible to remove the profile pictures from the notifications, so that it just show the app icon instead (perhaps that will make them the same size)?
I'm running MIUI Global 12.5.3.
Thanks in advance!

Change Notification Shade from Settings > Notifications & Control Centre to "Android" instead of "MIUI"
Unfortunately it's the same thing there, it just changes the layout a little bit but not the shapes and sizes of the icons of messages.
