Oreo - data flow arrows in status bar - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Has anyone noticed the new data flow arrows are now independent of the wifi and cell icons. Now when data is sent the little arrows pop up, moving the Bluetooth icon around to the left and right. It's a bit jumpy and disconcerting - any ideas on how to solve?

Substratum doesn't seem able to do anything about it, unfortunately.

yup as most of users aren't used to system icons on the right to move, it feels distracting. Arrows should have been a little smaller above the wifi icon so that there's no need to move the adjacent icons.

I have also noticed this and find it distracting, not an improvement on the old system IMO. Also the X on the deactivated simcard.
Another thing I noticed is the background apps notification. Any way to disable?

I have the same problem. I wonder if it's a bad implementation of Xiaomi, or a bug in Oreo itself

Exactly

Using the feedback app will do nothing except send them all you personal usage stats. The purpose is not to report feedback but to open up a backdoor on your phone.

The Oreo update is just awful. I have noticed several rendering issues and various other bugs and app compatibility issues.
I have disabled the data icon using UI tuner.

Hi, which option did you checked? To remove the data icon I have to uncheck both the Wifi icon and the Mobile icon.

You don't have to disable any icon, just install substratum app + substweaks and "Enable WiFi activity indicators", it will remove them from status bar for both wifi and mobile data.

Substratum theme substweaks will help to get rid of the arrows also you can center clock. It gives you the option to enable the arrows, but if you choose it, it results to the opposite

Pulling down notification bar problem!!!

Hi you all!
I'm so disappointed that after months there's still no stand-alone app which is able to pull down the notification bar and the quick settings of my device since the Lolliflop upgrade. I've downgraded once (was forced to upgrade again), contacted developers, today Samsung's customer support. What's left to do? Do I really need to downgrade once again? Is it really that hard to write an app like this?! Where are the developers?! Please help!
Many greetings

Unfortunately they don't work in landscape mode for Note edge. .. [emoji20]
Any ideas to fix?
Really? Well, in landscape mode you can reach the status bar anyway much easier.

Not on note edge... there is no status bar in landscape mode....
This is good because space isn't wasted when for example u r using navigation...
But it would be good to be able to get notification bar down from the edge so that location can be turned on quickly when using navigation...
Thought this app would do it... but only works in portrait.
Can't you just swipe down from the top? What am I missing?

But you could download the free version and give it a try, you never know.

Missing toggles in notification bar (Android 7.1.1)?

Hi y'all !
I just bought Nokia 6 last night and notice that there are some toggles missing in the notification bar which are available in my other phone running Android 7.0.
Such as the screenshot toggle, Volume toggle, sound profile toggle and so more, they are obviously not in the "Drag to add tiles". I hope Nokia didn't remove them.
Also, how i can make the battery percentage indicator appear next to the battery icon instead of inside the battery icon?
If you enabled System UI Tuner you can enable battery percentage.
To turn on Sytem UI Tuner, you need to press the little cog symbol in the corner of the toggle window until ut rotates. After that you find the system ui tuner menu in the bottom of the settings menu. And there under status bar you can enable battery percentage. As far as the other tiles are concerned, I don't know uf they are part of the rom.

missing a lot of tiles bother me too, but there are apps out there that can add tiles, so it's not much a big problem.

The missing settings i was talking about are at 3:03 and at 3:42 in the video.
Yup no Gallery app in this one. I don't like google fotos either, so I disabled it and installed Quick Pic instead. It's a good app.
Hello! Help with the decision, please!
I bought a Nokia 6 in China, the version was 7.0, and the function updated the update 7.1.1 and tried to install it via Recovery from the SD card, at the last stage received an error message. Now the phone is downloaded only in Recovery, and then the download is not. What can you recommend? How to restore the phone? What is the version of the firmware?
Well, adb sideload works on the phone. But I don't know any place to download Roms or OTA files.

the one in the video is the first release version (TA-1000, china exclusive i think). the launcher app is different from the Taiwan release version(TA-1003).
TA-1003's launcher app is a modified version of launcher3, while TA-1000's looks like it's called launcher+(at 3:08 in the video you linked.)

Lock screen notifications on S8

I currently have an iPhone 7 and heavily use the notification functionality.
Let's say I'm in meeting and the phone is on the table, locked. If someone sends a me a WhatsApp message, for example, then the phone will beep and light up for a few seconds and I'll see a new notification on the lock screen showing that I have a WhatsApp message from the sender. The same applies for other applications like email.
I have a Samsung S8 Galaxy and am trying to replicate the same behaviour. The notifying app definitely makes a noise, but the screen doesn't light up to show the details. I have to press the button on the right hand side to view the lock screen notification.
Is this a setting somewhere or a deficiency in Android/S8?
You can enable the edge lightning feature, although this only shows the app icon and a lightning and not the notifications text itself.

Can you use NFC ?

I cannot use PH-1 's NFC, no any sound or response if tag to NFC tag/device.
I can use same approach to read my NFC tag, pairing my headphone with another Android phone, but no any response on PH-1 ...
I download apps: 1) NFC check : Said the phone included NFC. 2) NFC Tool : cannot read my NFC tag, no any response. 3) NXP NFC: Cannot read my NFC tag, no any response.
Might the NFC is broken? Damn, I am in oversea is difficult to perform replacement. :crying:

VoLTE and VoWIFI in Australia

I'm pretty sure neither VoLTE nor VoWIFI will work in Australia for this device out of the box, particularly for Telstra. Can anyone who bought one confirm?
Is there likely to be a way to get them to work with modifications?
I am quite interested in this phone, but sadly given the reception where I live, lack of VoWIFI support would be a dealbreaker.
You can enable VOLTE and VoWIFI with OnePlus Log Kit app.

Hm. Well I might see if I can find anyone in Aus that's bought one before I rush to shell out that amount of money. Thanks for the input tho!
FWIW - i'll be trying as soon as mine arrives and gets setup.
unit should arrive today :fingerscrossed: , then charge, setup, and i'll try this VoLTE (and yes i'm on Telstra too).
What'll be interesting is whether 5G just works as is or whether I have to request it to be added/enabled on my Telstra plan?
@StelardActek - sooo followed the guide that's in above link. Fairly straight forward and then gives you the 2 toggle switches in your sim card settings... Can toggle both VoLTE & VoWiFi BUT icons don't change, so I don't actually know if it's working or just a toggle for the sake of having a toggle.

When you say icons, do you mean the status icons? Or do you mean the HD icon doesn't come up when making a call? AFAIK that's the only way to know if you're actually on VoLTE. Also VoWIFI will cut your call over to wifi a few seconds after connecting, if you're on wifi.

Turn airplane mode on. Then turn wifi on and see if you can still make calls in airplane mode through wifi.

Yea I mean the status icon - I thought there was a 4G & VoLTE icon but I'm probably wrong.
A few quick tests -
Made call Wifi On - Dialer has HD icon on screen
Status bar icon stays the same - no indication of 4G/3G/H+ etc. , just the triangle bars
Minimised dialler - launched browser, did speedtest - get 94.12Mbps........
Hang up, status bar icon stays the same - no indication of 4G/3G/H+ etc. , just the triangle bars
Made call Wifi Off - Dialer has HD icon on screen
Status bar icon goes from 4G+ before dialling, to 3G during dialling, to H+ when call is connected..
Minimised dialler - launched browser, did speedtest - get 4.21Mbps........
Hang up, goes status bar icon goes from H+ back to 4G+
Not entirely sure what that all means now..

Just tried that - in the dialer app, a prompt comes up - "To Place a call, first turn off flight mode"
Does it not say vowifi on status bar when wifi is on or Volte when wifi is off and data is on?
@nathlynn22 @happiboi AFAIK, if it says HD during a call you're on VoLTE. And if you're connect to wifi with VoWIFI enabled then a few seconds into a call it should swap over to using that instead of the LTE network. I forget what it says exactly but it does say something in text on the call screen that makes it explicit that it's using wifi for the call.

I know my current Pixel 2 XL does VoLTE and VoWIFI, and it also shows no icons in the status bar for either of these things. Just the HD icon on the dialer during calls, and the message on the dialer when routing voice via WIFI.

Are you using Telstra? I'm on Telstra and have installed the Lockit and followed all the steps. I don't see HD on the dialer screen, do you mind sharing screenshot?

I know my current Pixel 2 XL does VoLTE and VoWIFI, and it also shows no icons in the status bar for either of these things. Just the HD icon on the dialer during calls, and the message on the dialer when routing voice via WIFI.

Hmmm then i definitely don't see any messages about wifi or wifi-call on the dialer during the call

Cheers mate! Even now I'm getting the HD on dialler screen but no VOLTE & VoWiFI on the status bar.
My call quality has been exceptionally good and very crisp and clear.
I spoke with Telstra network team this arvo and they said OnePlus 8 is on their whitelist and is VOLTE compatible even they helped me diagnose the settings.
Hi! Im much interested with oneplus 8 pro too, from AU as well. Any recommended seller? Thank you!
