Hello, this is my first post and I opened and account here only for ask this. I have searched this in many other pages and I couldn't find an answer.
You may know the LG V20 second screen is related to the status bar, so, when an app got fullscreen, the second screen only shows the clock and wifi, battery icons. And I want to it shows the shortcuts in the normal way.
The solution I find is avoiding the immesive mode, but I don't know how to do it. There are a lot of apps that let you enter in immersive mode, but I want the opposite, disable the immersive mode.
How can I do that?
PD: Sorry for my english, I'm still learning it.
Don't know what immersive is!
But in my second screen there is user name above the clock,battery... icons. When swap user name to left or right,the shortcuts shown there.
if not ;
you may try ;
Settings-Display->Second screen
*Show when main screen on
*Show when main screen off
*More->Show time while content is shown

Hi,
today I was trying out some navigation with my phone. All worked fine, at least for the navigation part. Having the phone in portrait mode, the status bar is on the top. But if you turn into landscape, the status bar turns too. Beeing in landscape mode and having the status bar on top, it "steals" a lot of space.
So I was wondering, if there is an app that can controll the position of the status bar depending on the screen orientation. 2 hours of fruitless googling made me open this thread.
The Homescreen Replacement "LauncherPro" is able to hide the status bar, what brings a lot of space. But if you want the information from the status bar at your fingertips, you have to disclaim that space. If the status bar would be on the left or right side on the screen, you have both, space and information.
I hope everybody understands, what I'd tried to describe.
I just had the idea and I wanted to share. I don't need the application necessarily. I just thought it would be a nice thing to have on our phones.
So if someone wants to "steal" my idea, you are welcome. Charge money for it or don't. I don't care.

I posted this over in the general GS4 Q&A forum in the relevant thread, but I haven't gotten a response. I figured I'd ask here in a new post in the hopes that someone will read it. This is a copy and paste job, which is why the beginning and the edit seem out of context:
Hey guys. I am an N4 user, but I just bought my girlfriend a GS4. She's discovered a problem that I can't find an answer to.
Is there a way to have text messages preview ONLY in the status bar and notifications? It is very useful to have the preview of the message in the status bar and expanded notifications. However, it seems that the only way to enable this is to simultaneously enable the preview on the lock screen. Even with a secure lock screen, the preview of the message is still there. It seems odd for the control for two completely severable features to be bundled together in this manner. This creates a completely unnecessary compromise between convenience and security. Not to mention that even with the preview option turned off, a message identifying the sender still shows up on even a secure lock screen. I am thinking that I must be missing something in the widgets options, and I can remove this text "widget" (which is exactly what it is in practice) completely from the lock screen without sacrificing the convenience of previewing the message through the status bar and expanded notifications.
So, any advice? I'm guessing switching to a third-party messaging app might work, but I (and she) heavily prefer the stock messaging apps. I am looking to avoid this and simply find a solution while still allowing for the stock messaging app. I am going to try Lockscreen Policy in a few, and I'll report back on that. The idea came to me while typing this up.
EDIT: Looks like Lockscreen Policy did the trick. The message still previews in the status bar on the lock screen, but the text message widget that was the major problem is now gone. Unfortunately this trick prevents access to all other lock screen widgets.
For years I have hidden the notification drawer on the top of the screen, most of the info there is duplicated in my widgets, and I just don't like the clutter. However with the V20, hiding the notification drawer also turns off my second screen...which then gets rid of one of the marquee features of this phone.
I've tried on multiple launchers (Nova and Next), and the same result. I've tried permanently hiding it, and using gestures to toggle on and off.
Does anybody have any suggestions? Any rooted users know if this is a problem after root? This one little problem annoys me to no end.
Thanks a lot.
I'm on a non-rooted Verizon V20.
There is a setting that might help that allows it to be active when the display is in fullscreen mode. It's meant for videos so it might not have full functionality.
I'm rooted and I get the same thing. I use Nova and the "toggle notification bar" shuts the second screen off along with the notification bar. I don't know why they're tied together like that, it's annoying...
The second screen's "show time while content is shown" option will leave it on with the notification bar toggled off, but it doesn't do anything, it just shows time and notifications up there. You can't scroll it to get to anything.
Hi,
I know in the past there was an easy interface to allow you to choose per app whether or not to hide the navigation bar (home touch buttons).
Does anyone know if there is an easy way to always keep the navigation bar and status bar and to never have it go into immersive mode? With the taller screen, I'd like to give that a shot for a while.
There is a thread here about per app immersive mode: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/help/hiding-home-button-lg-g6-t3583536
I'm looking for a 'disable' immersive mode completely type of functionality.
Thanks for any assistance.

Hello,
Since PIE update I have an annoying problem.
2 side bars similar to edge sidebar (when its closed) appears on my screen (see screenshots).
Theese two bars don't have any actions and can't be swiped., but make little vibrate on swipe.
The main problem is the right sidebar is too close of the send button (messages/whatsapp & messenger) and make half of it don't react (and send message on click).
Here is my observations :
- it's shown over all elements (desktop, app list, all applications)
- it's not visible on lock screen
- it don't show up in Android safe mode
I've dig for hours, and try several methods without success :
- reboot (look stupid, but must be said )
- disable the real Edge sidebar
- disable Samsung Pay
- remove autorisations for ALL apps to overlay on other apps (screenshot)
- change default keyboard (with swiftkey & Gboard)
I've turn my display to night theme to highlight these sidebar, but they're still there in day mode.
I'm now out of idea... the fact it don't show up in safe mode would orient me to app issue. But due to overlay settings no apps are supposed to being able to do this (except secure folders that can't be disabled)... I have many apps it would be painful to remove /reinstall them...
Did anyone already faces similar issue?
Any idea on how to fix it, or where to dig for?
Thanks a lot in advance for your feedbacks, any help will be highly appreciated

I have the very same problem. By using instragram, I have noticed that I cannot click the like button when the like button is near the white bar. So I am thinking that the white bar shows where the edge of the display is disabled to block "unwanted" touch. I also find it very annoying. Help?
Resolved. Before the Pie update, I have installed here from XDA a package of various apps ported from Pie I think. I had to uninstall the one called something like "one hand +". Once uninstalled, the two bars got removed.
Ohhhh Thanks for your fix !!!!
I've dig around Good lock features yesterday, but forget this one.
Problem solved!
