Thin green line above notification bar? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There's a small thin green line between the notification bar and where the screen ends. It starts at the top left corner, ends about an inch or so to the right. I'm sure it's not a hardware problem because the position of the green line depends on the orientation of the phone. What could be causing it? It doesn't show up in screenshots.
edit: there doesn't seem to be anything downloading either, so i don't think it's a progress bar. Tried rebooting.

Amazing. I am stupid. Yes, that was it, thank you.
For those curious/anyone who stumbles upon this thread in the future- I'm running X-Note, and you can get rid of the battery bar in the X-Note Control menu.

[Q] Any battery icon mods that work?

I can't seem to get any battery icon mods to work through Xposed. The color changer in Wanam doesn't work, and neither does the module here:

Does anyone have an icon mod that works? That green color is a terrible eyesore...

I ended up using Wanam to disable the battery icon and just themed the numerical percentage instead.
If you change the battery to "enable circle battery" under the notifications panel settings, you can change the color to whatever you like. I like it better than the other battery anyways because it takes up less space and has the percentage inside of it. That's the only one I know of that works though

I'm having trouble changing the colors on the circle battery. I see the options, but nothing seems to be working. What exactly did you do?

Make sure to turn it on in the color panel when choosing the color and hit save.

I'm also looking for something else that works. The xbattery themer does nothing. I'm currently using Wanam circle battery, but I want a non-colored theme (colors change from yellow to red as the battery depletes). I changed the circle battery color to green, and I can live that for now since this thing is a beast and is rarely in the red anyway...BUT, I'm trying to change the percentage text color and it isn't working. There's an option for that but it doesn't do anything, so the circle battery is green and so is the percentage inside it, and that looks like crap IMO. If I could just get the percentage to turn white I'd be somewhat satisfied for now.
Xbattery themer now works!

The xbattery themer thread has quite a few options that are "stock-like". Just search for the module in xposed and the support thread url is at the bottom.

HI can anyone of you tell me how to get the circle battery?
I have checked the box to enable circle battery and it asks for a reboot, once i reboot nothing happens?
Any help is appreciated.
There is a thread that has over 1000 flashable batteries http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470495

This is probably a dumb question but is there a round battery % in the stock rom? I'm just looking for the same round icon that changed color with battery percentage as my note 2 had. Thanks for the dumb questions but I cannot seem to find it in the notification area where some say it should be.

@op you ever found a way to have the stock battery but with diff colors?

[Q] remove battery indicator bar above the notification bar

I have been trying to remove this battery status indicator above the notification bar. I just flashed chromi-x and cannot figure out what I changed to make this bar appear (orange/red dashed bar in the attached image), I really don't like how it looks and would like it gone. Does anyone know what I did to make this show up?

Finally found it in the android tuner app. I honestly thought flashing cromi-x would have a greater impact on the tablet than it has, maybe it will take some time for me to discover its full potential.

Why does my Moto G4 Plus have a weird preview of other apps?

This is kind of hard to explain but whenever I use my phone, no matter what app is open, or when I'm on the homescreen, some apps kind of show transparently on my display like it almost looks like the current app being used is translucent that I can see the other app? I can't really explain this properly. Screenshots don't show what I'm talking about.
It shows up at the very sides and top portion of the screen. It also shows when I bring down my notification shade. The grey part at the top which is supposed to be completely grey, still shows the battery icon, time, notification icons, signals, Wi-Fi indicator, etc. but very translucent. As if the grey quick toggles thing is translucent.
Again, screenshots dont capture the thingy. So I'm sure it's an issue and not intentional by Motorola.
It's screen burn issue. It has been discussed numerous times check through the forum for more help.

Install this, set on 5% black and after a while the burn images are gone. (keep the app on all the time, the one that I linked to is the one with less battery usage, from the 4 I tested)

As mentioned above by @Gero71 , use the app or visit the service center and ask them for a display replacement. That would be a permanent fix hopefully. :good:

I've seen some people complaining about the same issue after they've replaced their screens. It will still occur no matter what.
And, the app you're making me install, is just a screen filter. I use it all the time. Lowering the brightness doesn't fix the screen burn. It just makes it less prominent. But it is still there.

Samsung S8 Notification Bar Issue

My notification bar is always dropping down (sometimes intermittently) when I am using the Samsung S8 without me having to pull it down or receiving notifications. It is becoming quite annoying because every few seconds I have to drag it back up so that I am able to use the phone. Has someone else encountered the same issue?

Go to setting, search for navigation bar. The top item says show and hide item. That toggles the dot on and off.

That dot from the far left it is for the navigation bar. I was referring to the notification bar, the one at the top of the screen. Also every now and then the apps edge blinks intermittently and it coincides with the notification bar drop.

Did you enable fingerprint gesture to pull down notification shade? Settings>advanced features and then see under "finger sensor gestures"

Are you using a screen protector?

Yes I do, but the issues started before adding the screen protector. I took it down and still it persists
The problem was solved. If you ask me what caused the issue I have no ideea. All I can do is describe the exact steps I took.
1. I took of the screen protector just in case it was causing the issue
2. I restored the phone to factory settings
3. After that I didn't install any apps and didn't intstall any backups, no passwords, no face recognition, no pin, I omited all of the steps.
It seemed to have worked flawlessly I have no idea why and what was actually casing the issue with the notification bar. One day has passed so far and no notification bar issue so far.
I hope it's gonna stay this way

White display Problem

Hi, I'm on stock rom 339, rooted and no custom kernel.
I'm getting whitish display( the kind when your display is broken) at the top and bottom sides of the phone after playing pubg for a while...
I think it's because the bottom part is heating way too much...
Any solutions? I'm really worried about the display

Don't worry its just because of theme.
Happened with me before.
Try darker wallpaper.
Its not a display problem. Its the launcher. Display defects don't show up in screenshots.
