Black ribbon at the bottom of the screen - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

Hi all.
Just got my Poco last week. Some apps don't show in full screen, three is a solid black ribbon at the bottom of the screen. Refer attached screenshots of Inbox and Gmail apps. Gmail if fine, but inbox is misbehaving.
Has anyone had similar issues?

Go to settings and use Full Screen Mode for apps with this issue
Those apps are optimized for 16:9 aspec ratio. With MIUI setting you can use the full screen

[Q] Gallery app glitch - upside down pics & odd display

I've noticed some annoying glitches in the SGS3 Gallery app
First
Once I open the Gallery, the albums are displayed in equal sized squares, no empty spaces between them... not anymore. Not sure what happened, but now they all have different sizes and there's an empty black space between them.
Second
Once I open an album and browse through the pictures (not the grid view, the full size when you can swipe left and right between them at full size), some of them will show up properly for a second, then flip upside down or squeeze down to landscape instead of portrait.
I know the pictures themselves are just fine, I've cleared the Gallery app data and force-stopped it. No dice.
Short of replacing my Gallery app - which I really don't want to do - I really need any suggestions you guys can throw at me.
Anything?

Contacts issue

Using stock Sony dialer & contacts app some of my contacts aren't showing up, they are there but if you search alphabetically they aren't. Tried rocket dialer etc and they show up just fine, anyone shine any light on this issue?
In the stock Contacts app, go to Menu (the 3 squares on the bottom right) then Filter and go through the various settings.
Yup that fixed it, but quite surprised that as standard it doesn't display all my Google contacts.
Edit: OK, fiddling with the filters makes all the contacts visible, ie scrolling through the list they are there, but try searching and they don't all come up.

Multiple issues.

I was wondering if anyone had solutions to any of these issues:
Double clicking the "recents" button doesn't go the last app, it just acts like I hit the home button once, minimizing everything. Likely fixed by a software update (before 4/29).
The dual screen does NOT abide by my LG Game Settings for apps (resolution and frame rate). I have games set to lower resolution, but they always run at high resolution on the left screen. Even if I swipe an app with lowered resolution from the main screen to the dual screen.
When the phone is locked and I go to expand a notification but don't fully expand it, it slips back but my whole screen becomes unresponsive for a couple seconds.
Some apps have rounded corners from the screen and it's harder to see/click on things that are right in the corners.
Mostly importantly, I can't figure out how to get *any* sort of visual notification on my lock screen. When the screen is locked and off I get audio notifications for everything (messages, emails, etc.), but there is no visual indication whatsoever. The screen doesn't come on, light up for a couple seconds, show the notification appearing, nothing. AND I turned on the bubble notifications and sidelight options in App Notifications -> Notifications -> Brief Notifications. But neither of these works. SOLVED: Ugh, apparently immediately underneath those two options is a list of apps to apply this to. Which I guess is neat? I just want it for all apps. Either way, the default for this happens to be NO apps. So I enabled the apps, this one's solved.
NOTE: I am on the very first update version. I have updates disabled, as I usually do with phones, to keep it on the lowest revision for possible rooting purposes. So if any of these issues has been fixed by one of the (almost always useless) security updates, let me know. THANKS!
I had the same issue with the recent button, and I gave up after searching up and down for a setting or something. then it just fixed itself, which probably means an update. currently running most recent software updates.
Awesome, thanks, I'll mark that one as "solved" in a sense. I have access to a few other phones on the same Android version that don't have the issue, so I figured it was phone specific.

apps using full screen

I use tallon for Twitter ,it is one app that truly delivers and immersive screen experience,as you can see from the screen shots ,when swiping down it appears through the notification area and when swiping sideways it rolls.in from the side ,surely this is how all apps should perform on full screen phone's

Lock screen notifications & shortcuts

Hi, I'm a bit late to the V60 party and am curious if others have the same two issues I'm having with the lock screen. The first is that my notification pop ups are tiny - like unreadable tiny. This is on the main display (not the front of the dual case). On my V30+ I could read the subject and first few lines of emails as they came in, and read texts & WhatsApp messages no problem. They occupied a third to a half of the screen. Now I get something that's 1/8" (~3mm). I have everything in 'brief notifications' turned on, 'show content' checked, and 'hide sensitive notification content' unchecked. What's the difference between bubble vs non-bubble? Sounds like some Apple i- to me.
My other question is can only put two app shortcuts on my lock screen? IIRC I could put many on my V30+'s screen. Two is limiting. Is it time to install Nova launcher? The fact that I can't add a home screen to the left of the main one bothered me, at least until I grouped the snot out of my app shortcuts
