Hello,
I have been using the F1 for one month now, and I love the power and photo quality of this phone for it's price.
But one thing is a problem for me: the notch.
In one hand, I like having a display that is covering the maximum of the front of the phone, and in the other hand this big thing is allowing only to see a few notifications and system icons.
With MiUi 10, we have a feature to display the notifications under the clock (see here), but with Custom Roms like LineageOS you can only have two or three icons, or hide the clock, and this become also a problem on the right side when you have wifi, cellular data, bluetooth, GPS and the battery icon: somes disappear and are replaced by a dot on the left, and you need to expand the notification panel to see the icons.
Because of these issues I am constantly using the feature that hides the notch by totally disabling the top part of the screen.
So my question is: is there any app/mod/anything that could make the status bar use the left and right side of the notch and a bar at the bottom like a normal phone?
I have made a concept in GIMP in the attachments.
Thanks in advance for your reply and sorry for my English
Have a great day,

Are there any mods out there (and if not, how hard would it be for someone to write one) that vertically flip the orientation of the Notification Panel?
Right now, the typical panel pulls down with a swipe, showing the Toggles first (if your rom has 'em), then the notifications, stacked in a list, last first. What I'd like is to be able to have the panel swipe up from the bottom of the screen, with the toggles at the bottom of the panel and then the notifications stacked in a list, with the last one at the bottom. In essence a completely vertical mirror of how the panel operates.
The closest I've been able to find is with PA, but it requires cranking the DPI on your device so that fonts are tiny, and the panel doesn't span the screen completely, it's just a little popup window with tiny icons. What I'm looking for is something that's perfectly identical to the standard panel, just upside-down.
Is this possible? Has anyone out there written a mod that does this? It seems like such an obvious hack (especially in light of 4.7" phones), yet I can't seem to find anything.
So it looks like the G6 has an awesome button at the bottom to pull down the notification shade so you dont have to stretch all the way to the top of the device. How about moving the notification shade to the bottom? This would make a lot more sense given how big phones are getting. Really the only reason you stretch to the top of the phone is to get to the quick toggles or notifications up top. Would be great if this came from the bottom to alleviate this.
Hi
Well, that requires a software modification, but if you want that button, it can be easily added if your rom supports Navigation Bar, you can add custom button and set function to pull down notification, and even if it doesn't you can add it with xposed and gravity box app.

I never held a notch phone, but the poco has got my attention because of the price, I was wondering what happens when you've a lot of icons on one side of the notch, i usually have battery %, network signal, vpn icon, wi-fi icon, BT icon, and you could have even more...
My question is: what happens when you have all those things active on a notch this small? do they stay hidden or they go to other place? It looks like it only has enough space for time on one side and enough for 3 or 4 icons on the other side.
Of course the icons will be distributed over the status bar less the notch, I think.
I'm guessing the same thing as happens with a regular phone when you have too many icons on the status bar. They disappear off the screen and you have instead a symbol indicating that several icons are hidden
Should look something like this, weblink can be found in file name.
Google, in its infinite wisdom, has decided that the status bar clock has to be on the left side because of phones with a selfie camera notch at the top. I have such a phone, a OnePlus 6T, but I always have enough free space on the right side of the status bar, but not enough on the left side. With the clock there is only space for four icons, which, on the left side, is not enough. There is no overflow into the free space to the right of the notch, the clock does not move into free space, there is no second row, there is apparently no solution.
I have not found any direct way to move the clock anywhere else, but there is a workaround, provided your phone allows you to remove the status bar clock altogether. On the OnePlus 6T, probably on all phones with OxygenOS, and hopefully in many other phones, you can switch off the clock display with a command similar to: Settings, Display, Status bar, Time, Don't show this icon.
But I always need a clock somewhere, and this is the second part of the workaround. Luckily there is an app, made by Wansoft in South Korea, named "Always on top clock and memo" or, short, "Time and Memo". This app can place a digital time display and a host of other things almost anywhere on screen. I chose to have just a small time display centered directly under the notch.
I chose text size 16 pt, black, not translucent, without any decorations, on a white, slightly translucent background, which I can recommend for a first try. The app offers a wide variety of display options.
Obviously the app needs the right to display over other apps, which you have to grant.
I hate the "Apple" Pie clock on the left. It's NOT a notification. That's where notifications go.

Hi Everyone
this is my first post, I hope you can help me.
I have a Pocophone F1. When I set the "not disturb" or "silent" modes the corresponding icons, that should appear in the top right of the display, actually don't appear. I guess they are hidden by the notch. This is really annoying because, in this way, it is very easy to forget to have set the silent or the do not disturb modes.
I already made some searches and it seems that all the solutions and third-party apps are made for the top left notification icons.
Is there a solution?
Thank you very much in advance.
All the best,
Gabriele
Stock MIUI on Poco only supports three objects displayed in the status bar. Left side is clock and right side is SIM and battery.
There is no setting to change this behavior.
You may try and install a custom sutartus bar, I've seen some apps on the Play Store.
Yes, thanks but the apps I have seen only change the visualization of the top left notification icons keeping the top right ones as are. Could you kindly suggest me an appropriate app?
Thank you very much.
