Hi Guys, so I've increased the dpi to custom under developer settings to 581. Everything seems to work great except for touch position on the dialer and it's pretty irritating. Anyone knows a solution to this or to selectively reduce the dpi on tbe dialer app? I'm not rooted. Look at the screenshot of the issue. Thanks!
I use 589, and no issues, but with 600, the notifications panel becomes very narrow, but no issues with anything else
i use 480 w lowered font size and "fineprint" font.... everything works perfect

Tried 589 and same issue. Can you confirm you don't have the issue on your dialer? Weird why this would be.
I just double checked, at 589, the dialer is normal, but, I have the screen resolution at wqhd+, fhd gives me some troubles in the zone of the nav bar, and I say zone because I hide the nav bar, gestures work ok, but, buttons appearing there become unresponsive, the same for the bottom row of the keyboard

For some reason I still have the issue in the OP screenshot. I've resorted to 520 now with QHD+, things are slightly better on the dialer but still largely the same.

I'm currently using cm9 nightly build and everything works pretty well.
I know that in AOKP we can change the on-screen navibar's colour, size etc and I think it is a great feature. However I just figure out an alternative way to further delay the screen burn-in, sorry I'm a noob i don't know jack about coding...
Is it possible that, in each time, when you turn on your screen, your navibar's keys colour will change randomly. For example, when you turn on your screen, the keys are yellow, you turn off your screen and turn on it again, this time the keys are red etc.
With AOPK, you can disable the Nav Bar and change transparency. Enabling 180* rotation the Nav Bar follows. You can enable Nav Bar options in the Power Menu as well, but that's not exactly convenience.
There is also this gesture app LMT, but I don't use it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150
I just hide the top and bottom bar each day with aokp, browse the web with total full screen, and my burn in is gone. Just need to exercise those pixels is all.
The power button menu has a show/hide nav button shortcut, so easy to do.
How long would it take for burn in? Back on my Samsung Vibrant, never had that issue, and it was Super Amoled.
I don't do any fancy things like you guys do. I just rotate my phone from portrait to landscape to where the nav bar is next to the front cam. I do this every time i'm on landscape. That way all the pixels get used/exercised. I don't suffer from any burn in had my phone since Feb.

Glad I could help Since the front of the phone is pretty much all black doesn't even make a difference to how it looks (cam on the left or right or even down )
Hi everyone. The problem is this is my first xiaomi and first notched (sadly) phone.
I like to change my display size to minimum. With 490 dpi it look awesome. 588 is better but my keyboard becomes unusable.
Problem is notch is not covered with new dpi settings. I found a forum with solution "navigation bar sizing" however not for rn8pro. Higher dpi cause more notch on screen (it is on hiding setting). Is there a fix for this? Black hiding with complete notch coverage at any dpi setting is the blessing.
Is there any way to force apps in the notch area and not have black bar there I tried the full screen mode in settings and even some immersive mode apps and nothing helped.
Also is there a way to make status bar toggles and notifications smaller? I have set smallest display mode but that only affects menus
Thanks
Here's what I did on my P30 Pro to make notifications smaller. It works systemwide too.
Open Developer Options, scroll down to DRAWING section, at the bottom is a setting for Smallest width. Increase whatever the number is by an amount of, say, 10dp at a time until you get your desired size and appearance.
After experimenting with values I found that merely increasing from stock value of 423dp to 430dp made a big (smaller) difference.
I also have the text size set @ normal and display size set @ small.

No problem, I'm glad that's helped with part of your solution.
I much prefer smaller font and icons, to me it makes the UI look more polished.
Besides the general low quality of this piece of software, here are some specific pains:
1. SafetyNet test fails (no root) - WTF? Can't use any of my work applications because of that.
2. Status bar notification icons don't appear (except for Gmail, for some reason)
3. About device shows there's an update available but I can't update because I'm not the "owner" of the device (there is only 1 user configured, no multiple users) - screenshot attached.
Please share your experience and whether or not you're seeing the same issues (or more).
Thanks!
Another botched update from oneplus scams
Well, it's a good thing I decided that the OP9P would be my last OP smartphone. I'm gona stick with Pixel phone from now on. Finally release A12 and no phone or data works. Really OP???
- Phone stuck in 60hz like 99% of the time.
- Keyboard doesn't have this convenient padding anymore. (On botttom to make typing easier.)
- [Launcher] Can't search apps with a single up swipe anymore, will have to find some hacky solution again. Usually I put a KISS launcher shortcut on other phones. But why ruin it when they had it ....
- [Launcher] Folders open on the middle of screen. Makes no sensse.
- [Launcher] The whole launcher experience is just way worse.
- Battery Management is a mess, now there are other options per app. The previous settings were reset.
- Rooting with Canary Magsik can soft brick. Managed to fix it but it took me a while and I consider myself a veteran.
Honestly, tons of great features are missing. I wish they would just give us a lean AOSP instead like the ASUS Android and call it a day. This feels like a botched, budget Android on a cheap Chinese phone.
App drawers can only display 4 icons per row. Anyone knows how to change it to 5 per row or more?
it is no longer possible to film and in 21:9... or I am blind.
Like a say h8Aramex Phone stuck in 60hz like 99% of the time.

That's not actually a bug, that's feature. Go to notification settings for particular app and you can set to show notification icon on status bar. Disabled by default for all apss (I think it should be enabled by default), except Gmail, Dialer and a few others.
Bug I found:
- font size issues. I want to set small fonts and dpi. But some apps, like default camera app, power menu, google feeds when swipe etc has still default large font, experience is terrible
- custom dpi set in developer settings will be reverted after reboot. If you set smaller dpi in phone settings, it will be applied a few seconds after boot, phone starts with default dpi
- AOD does not work, even if enabled, screen will turn off when inactive
I installed via built in ota from Oxygen 11 Global, I got update to ColorOS 12
Just got my first 1+ yesterday and was really impressed with the OOS 11 experience.
All day long. All the magic has gone after the update.
In addition to what was already said, the AOD is flickering terribly.
Perhaps it is caused by the pwm of low frequency.
Lol, I paid 1000 euros for this phone because the software was supposed to be good...
Oh yeah, the CLOCK. What is WRONG with that CLOCK!? LMAO.
I mean look at this ABOMINATION.
WHO DRAWS A CLOCK LIKE THAT? SATAN?!?!??!
Like wtf lol.
I have a new problem. I listen to music while walking with my wireless headphones. The phone is in my pocket. Unknown reason causes the phone to crash.
I feel it's going to be complicated.... At least I have 5G working.
Why would they remove the seconds on the clock feature. This update is horrible all around

Get Nova launcher and don't look back?
I'm not even going to upgrade A12, I deleted the 4gig update I got from Oxygen Updater. Oneplus just shoot them self in the foot and will not recover from this. I'll be suprise if they sell 1k Oneplus 10 phone next month.

Is your phone in 24-hour format? Mine looks normal in 12-hour format but like yours in 24-hour format. I don't use the stock clock app so I hadn't noticed.

They didn't. This is only when setting an alarm in the clock app.
Camera goes bananas when zoomed beyond 10x.. See attached
Any custom DPI set in developer options is completely lost after reboot.
Reported by me multiple times and was also seen in previous phones/Android versions.
Hi all, i can't open the icon option in the Launcher and and in the settings too it simply crash and nothing. Anyone as an idea? I just wipe launcher data but nothing.

Did you select "High" refresh rate in settings? Mine is at 120hz the vast majority of the time.
I have issues with screen brightness not adjusting to low-light conditions. When setting my phone on my dash mount I have to manually adjust the screen brightness down or go blind, even in dark mode. Worked fine with Oxygen OS 11. Fairly disappointed with the overall quality of this update, and I usually love getting the shiny new OS version update.
Is it possible to bring down the brightness toggle so it can be reached with one hand without root? I use auto brightness but sometimes have to adjust it manually as it's not very accurate all the time.
As a work around I switch on one handed mode and move it this way which is a bit awkward.
Super staus bar is working for me until (hopefully) Gravitybox comes out for A12.

Almost certain not what you want, and definite overkill, but you could use Bottom Status Bar and only enable the brightness slider (and not the literal bottom status bar). The downside is that, unlike the native brightness slider, changing the brightness through Bottom Status Bar turns Auto brightness off. You could enable the brightness slider in it, and a Auto-Brightness toggle switch, but then you'd have to get used to manually turning auto-brightness back on. There are probably more complex things you could do with automation apps (Tasker, etc) but that would likely require root where Bottom Status Bar doesn't for these purposes. The good side is at least the brightness slider would be very available from the bottom of the screen. I hope a stock ADB and/or root solution comes eventually for the stock ROM. There's not too often a time I want to change it manually, but having to slide down twice to get to it is crazy.
Edit: @westhaking beat me. Super Status Bar is by the same author as Bottom Status Bar, but I don't remember what one has that the other doesn't, so perhaps go by his recommendation first unless you like the idea of BSB better, or SSB doesn't quite do it for you.
Just a guess that SSB probably has the same weakness I found in BSB, that using its brightness slider abilities disables automatic brightness.
BSB works quite well, thank you. Did not know about its existence. You are right, it switches off automatic brightness but it can be switched back again in BSB near brightness toggle. Can be good as a temporary solution.
Another workaround is an accessibility shortcut which is an eye sore but can be also used for switching volume and screen off.

Nice! I didn't expect it can be achieved without root and GravityBox and was looking for the solution for a long time. Thank you so much for bringing this app to my attention. Adjusting brightness by dragging along status bar is awesome!

Awesome, glad you found a temporary workaround. Here's hoping there'll be a better permanent solution for us all, eventually. I wish I was a real Dev. I can only repackage stuff...sometimes. I just don't have the patience to learn enough to be a Dev.

I guess you can't reach the top of the screen in one handed mode.
Perplexed how nobody at Google development realised what an utterly stupid place the brightness bar is.
