Now that we have root is there a way to hide some of the status bar icons? Like system UI tuner does on the Nexus devices...

This is still only possible with Root, correct?
Been looking around all afternoon, and seems like there was something called System Tuner UI, but was removed on Samsung S7 devices (probably all Sammy phones).
p.s.
I have a AT&T S7 Edge, but I doubt that will affect the answer(s)
Nova will do it.

True. It will do it on your home screens, but not within other apps.

Yeah Xposed requires root
There is an app called Notify Box that I have been using. It groups selected status bar notifications together and puts them in one drop down box that you can then delete or view. It seems to work pretty well.
Just found this in an LG group, "adb shell settings put secure icon_blacklist alarm_clock,bluetooth,mobile" etc. No root required, just a working adb setup and developer options.
Partial list is;
cast
hotspot
bluetooth
zen (do not distrub icon)
alarm_clock (alarm icon)
managed_profile (work profile icon)
wifi
ethernet
mobile (mobile data icon)
airplane
nfc
I'm still looking for the name of the download booster icon

This worked great. I did
Code:
adb shell settings put secure icon_blacklist alarm_clock,nfc,bluetooth
Unfortunately the NFC icon stayed but the alarm clock and bluetooth are gone so anything is a huge improvement. Now I just need to figure out the names for the volte and rcs icons from rooting. I tried
Code:
adb shell settings put secure icon_blacklist alarm_clock,nfc,bluetooth,volte,rcs
but neither went away. Either way thank you.
Hi, I tried that with alarm_clock but unfortunately I got an white square icon stead :silly:
This worked for me to disable the Alarm and Bluetooth icons. Thanks for the share!

Not sure if you figured this out already but the white rectangle icon that appears is actually the "rotate" so add that to your list
nfc for us on Samsung is nfc_on
You can disable the battery icon but still have "show percentage" on in settings so no icon but still charge percentage.
I've been adding and removing frequently but here is my current disable list
Code:
adb shell settings put secure icon_blacklist bluetooth,alarm_clock,rotate,battery,location,nfc_on
Hello,
Were you able to figure out the name of the Data boost icon? I like to have that turned on, I just cant stand seeing the icon.
Thanks,
Z

Doesn't seem like you can really add any Quick Settings... the only tile you can add is a "Broadcast Tile" and it doesnt seem to do anything or show up

On my Nexus 5 (not 5x) I can add these options: Invert colors, Do not disturb, Hotspot, and Broadcast Tile.
On the 5X it shows Invert Colors, DND, and Hotspot as already being in the list even though Hotspot and Invert Colors are not shown unless the features are actually turned on at the time
This won't work for me for some reason? Disable encryption and rooted, only things I can think of that might interfere?
Fixed: Enabled animations in Developer Options again, rebooted, gear finally spun and unlocked the feature.
This is odd. I can't seem to enable System UI on my 5x. It's rooted, unencrypted. I am using Nova Launcher, but even when I revert back to Google NOW I still can't enable it.
I'm pressing down on the cog icon for at least 30 secs easily. Any ideas?
Oh, need to enable animations as noted above.

Yea, I tried to use the Invert Colors toggle just to see what it does but it doesn't show in the notification when I exit the system UI tuner. I honestly hate the embedded battery percentage, wish it showed outside of the battery

^^^ this is the app to use! I got some custom tiles that work great.
First thing I noticed after update is changed lockscreen
Now, on the bottom of the lockscreen, three icons used to be "dialer", "unlock", "camera", but now there are "microphone" on the left where the "dialer" app is used to be.
Is there any way I get "dialer" app back on the lockscreen?
Also I cannot swype left or right on the lockscreen to run dialer or camera, I need to touch the icons and swipe then.

This might half-work:
Shortcut Lock Screen Mod [MM]
I say "half-work" because I don't use it myself and it doesn't mention the swipe part, just replacing the icons.
GravityBox also has the ability to add custom icons (they'll show up under the clock).
settings>>all apps>> top gear icon>> default>> assist and voice>> assist--NONE
and dialer is back.

Thank you very much, that works perfectly !
Although found something else that is weird.
When I turn off WiFi, it used to show me "4G" or "3G" icon next to reception bar, when on mobile data.
After the MM update There is nothing shown there, I have no idea if the data is enabled or not, neither if it is 4G or 3G. Is this something wrong with my device or it is MM "feature" ?
How can I get icon for the data connection back on ?!

If you're rooted you can use gravity box xposed module to show it back. No idea why it happened in the first place
OK sorted the problem.
I went to stock recovery (I'm not rooted) and cleared cache partition, rebooted and now it shows 3G/4G icon when I'm on mobile data.
thanks everyone for the support
Hello,
As you may know, Android 6 has a hidden feature, called System UI Tuner. This can be enabled by long-pressing the Settings icon in the top-right corner of the notifications bar. Once enabled, a new section appears in Settings, called "System UI Tuner". I think Developer mode must be enabled too for this to work, and animations must be on.
But on the S7 Edge, this doesn't seem to work. Tried to long-press that icon, and nothing. Animations are on, developer mode is enabled.
Did anyone succeed in enabling this ?
Thanks !

System UI Tuner isn't available on Touchwiz. Samsung removed it. However, I'm guessing most of you upgraded to Android Nougat, but for those of you who haven't should get this app called Good Lock.
Good Lock is an app made by Samsung that actually replaces the System UI on your phone, and will make it almost stock Android. I sure you still won't find System UI Tuner by holding the Settings button, but I sure that there is a setting in the Good Lock Settings menu to do so. My thought is that the Good Lock Settings Menu is their version of System UI Tuner.
You can find Good Lock in the Galaxy Store, but if it is not there for whatever reason, then just sideload it from this link here.
(apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/good-lock/good-lock-24-0-16-release/good-lock-24-0-16-android-apk-download)
--enter the link without the brackets, xda won't allow me to post links until I have made 10 posts--
I'm not sure if this will work in Nougat, as in the website it said that the minimum version of Android is Marshmallow, and the maximum version of Android is Marshmallow.
If you are willing to take the risk, try it and let us know if it will work.
Hope I helped!
It is pretty much impossible
You can't enable it Samsung and other companies have disabled it in manufacturing
How to enable system UI tuner in Samsung j5 prime
Go here and try it. I did get it working on my s7 edge non rooted but I recently had to do a factory reset and I can't get it to work. https://www.recovery-android.com/tips/access-system-ui-tuner-s7.html
i think this would be a better decision as it wouldnt require a computer.

simply enable with adb once and you can tweak your phone anywhere without having to use a computer
So I used GMD in the play store to disable the navigation bar on my S8+ to further enjoy the infinity screen but now I have a gap at the bottom of my dock where it used to be. (See image) I am using nova prime as my launcher. Anyway to get rid of this gap?
try setting Nova launcher as Full screen in phone Settings > Display > Fullscreen apps
Thanks for the suggestion but didn't work.
Android is still trying to take into account the navbar even if it isn't there. I'd image it some systemUI app setting or something else within the OS.
I have mine setup to be immersive all the time and all launchers I've tried act the same. Not much of an issue for me.

Best to use the manual ADB way. No gaps
Use Shortcutter, which has an Immersive Mode switch that goes in the quick settings.
Then enable it to write settings via adb command:
Code:
adb shell pm grant com.leedroid.shortcutter android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
Then, in the Configure Services/Tiles tab, in the Immersive Mode section, select "Show Mode Selector". This makes it so every time you select Immersive Mode, it will allow you to pick between hiding nav bar only, hiding status bar only, or hiding both. The benefit of using Shortcutter is that you get that switch in quick settings, so you can switch between having both bars, either one, or neither at any time (such as when you hand the phone to a friend and they can't figure out how to use the phone ).
Personally, I select to hide both, and use a notifications widget on my desktop to look at notifications, and enjoy a huuuge display for everything I want to read or chat.
Examples:
desktop - notifications go in the blank space in the middle
browser
I realized that, even if the Mi (in Oreo Stock Rom) is blocked, it allows you to display the notification bar and deactivate the mobile data or activate the airplane mode. Is there any way to change that?
I think that if the device is blocked, it should not be able to interact with the notification bar ...
I have not seen a solution. So, I open the thread to see if you can help me.
Thanks in advance!

It's possible to remove Quick Settings Tiles in lockscreen but you need root access to do that.
I'm using Tasker to set Quick Settings Tiles when device locked and reset it when device unlocked.
Example 1: shell command to get current Quick Settings Tiles
Code:
settings get secure sysui_qs_tiles
Example 2: shell command to set Quick Settings Tiles to Flashlight only
Code:
settings put secure sysui_qs_tiles "flashlight"
