Status Bar Icon Issues - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone noticed the application icons on the status bar are moving to the left and the native ones to the right are moving to the right towards the bezels. This happens often and normally readjust itself. It is most evident when using the phone and receive a call and the icons are showing behind the popup caller notification. Is there a fix for this to lock the status bar?

Can you present a screenshot because I do not understand what you mean?

I had that icon come up when I was roaming. sorry can't remember exactly what I did to get rid of it...
**EDIT***
just remembered! It was when I turned notifications off. Try switching Notifications back on. should fix it.
From the Drop Down, Choose Notification
-slide down the status bar
-find the notification toggle
-be sure it is activated (toggle should be green)
-done!
I too had your problem, I thought I could upgrade my phone lol sadly I was mistaken.
I do think that the icon could have been of a better design and as such more understandable.

How to make a statusbar icon keep in position?

Hello friends,
I downloaded a statusbar cpu monitoring app which is really great except for one thing.
Always if i get a other notification,like the whatsapp symbol a new mail or the facebook notification it goes one position to the right.
I would really like that it stays in the left corner of my statusbar and all other notifications take place behind it
Is it somehow possible??

I think not, unless the app would recreate the notification every second; maybe someone else will prove me wrong.

[Q] Faded dot on the left of the notification bar?

What is that faded dot, which appear sometimes on the left of notification bar... like a notification but it's not?
does it show with headphones plugged in?
If it is as Envious is suggesting, then its the Smart connect thing. Or maybe you are talking about the Noisecanceling which appear like a wave sort of.

Like the one in the attached picture ?
A flag, SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LOW_PROFILE, can be passed to indicate that certain UI elements be put into a Low Profile and offer less of a distraction to the user. If I had a nexus device (really any device with soft buttons across the bottom) then I would also notice those buttons being replaces by the same dim circle I'm seeing in my navbar.
This has been available since 4.0 and is intended for book readers, games, and other immersive applications.
Maybe you have some sort of app that are running in the background. Try to check your task manager.
It's not related with headphones. It looks just like the one in the attachment but if so it should replace a notification, which i dont see after it disappears.
I'll try to get a screenshot the first time i see it.
And please check the task manager to check what is open. Please take screenshot of that too
Unfortunately, i forgot to check running apps but i dont expect any surprises because it was after a video watch. so yes a full screen app was working but there is no clue that it's for visual enhancement and it just disappears after a page refresh.
if it's a notification, i cant get to read it.
I wonder if it can override the gps icon? Maybe it's a notification that what you are using is accessing your location.
I've checked it with the notifications log, it was empty. So it's probably the hidden icon of the running video app in fullscreen. it emerges when i use mx player, as well. thanks for the brainstorming

On Pie and rooted. Is there any way to fix the "4 status bar icons max" issue?

On Pie and rooted. Is there any way to fix the "4 status bar icons max" issue?
Hello! I've searched far and wide and have read tons of complaints about this issue, but no resolutions. Those complaining posts I found were from several months ago, so I was hoping maybe a resolution came about.
It seems as though for whatever reason (possibly due to phones now having notches), Google has made it so there can be no more than 4 notification icons in the system tray. This is extremely aggravating to me. I typically have my weather app showing me the temperature in the status bar, and now I can't see that any more without swiping down. I also have no idea if I have a new notification from eBay because Wunderlist and my text notification icon take up those spaces.
There is PLENTY of room on my status bar for more notifications, so this stupid "dot" is annoying me to no end. My phone is rooted. Is there any way to double the height of the status bar so I can see all my notifications? Or if that's not an option, is there a way to just tell Android Pie to behave like Oreo and just show me all of the notification icons it can fit in my status bar?
Again I am rooted, on Pie, on an original Pixel XL, so I am hoping there's some answers out there for me, but I am not finding anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

App for management of icons in notification bar?

Hello.
I looking for some way to remove those default icons from notification bar. As it is right now I have 4 icons that are using all of the space on the left side of the notch, those are volte, mobile network signal, wifi... So when I have notification from some app that I do care about I don't see it unless I swipe down and open notifications... Is there any way to remove those default icons or make some other as priority so that when there is notification from them that they push those default to the side and show me important stuff? And there is also little bit of space on the right side to maybe move some of them there...
I assume that I m not the only one that think this is stupid.
Thanks in advance
Those are what I'm talking about
