I don't need the edge functionality of the phone and would just like to use that portion for whatever is on my screen instead. I experimented with Nova launcher and it removed the edge panel...but only part of it. The edge panel is gone but I still see a thin black bar all the way at the right side of the screen remaining. I want to completely use the entire screen of the phone. So is there a way to remove the black bar and maximize my screen real estate? I feel like maybe a custom rom would do that but I don't wanna go that far unless I know it achieves that.
I kinda had the same problem as you . The edge wasn't very important to me . Flashing a custom rom did help me in achieving that . The first rom I tried was RR by micky I it comes with a omni switch so ya can turn on/off the edge functionality . But if ya prefer to be on MM I would recommend noble rom it comes with an edge panel but is invisible for most of the time ; . I personally use n915f with noble rom and Micky's kernel . Hope this helps

Do you get the ENTIRE screen or is there a remaining thin black bar? Nova Launcher got rid of the edge panel and gave me more screen but I'm still left with a thin black bar on the side so I'm not utilizing my entire screen as I wanted. Can you show me a picture of your phone with either of those roms? I don't want to go through the headache of installing it only to find out its like Nova in the end result of a thin black bar leftover. And will those roms work on an at&t Note edge? Thanks for your response
Due to some unknown reasons am unable to upload a screenshot "network error". Could ya please check noble rom thread ( OP : Albe96) under the development section . He has uploaded some screenshots which will give you a better idea . The title says it works for only Fy&G versions but with the right kernel it worked fine for me on 915f . Am not sure if it works on at&t version of edge . Maybe you can post a question under the rom thread sure somebody will help you
Update : I don't have any black bars.

I meant pictures like an actual pic, not screenshot because I wanted to see if the black bar was visible. But its okay, I appreciate the info you provided. I'll take a look at that now but might not risk it because it doesn't sound like its compatible with the at&t Note Edge.
it would be nice to use the entire screen to display everything

Do you know what the screen size is without the edge panel? Like say I'm using a web browser or some other app and the edge panel is gone now, how big is the display with the edge panel out? 5.4, 5.5 or 5.6 inches? And how big is everything total with the edge panel included?
dont think its possible ,its two separated screens ?
No it's definitely one screen.
I'm in the same situation. Couldn't get the Noble ROM working on my F device unfortunately. I uninstalled the Cocktailbar service to get rid of the edge panel (sped up the device quite a bit BTW). Nova wallpaper covers the entire screen now but the display of the icons gets trimmed off when scrolling.
A Note compatible application will show under an app that gets clipped short and if you window an application, you can drag it to cover the curved portion of the screen so on a system level, it is possible to utilise the entire screen.
There must be a configuration setting somewhere that defines the application rendering area. As a relative Android newbie, does anyone know where such a setting may be found?

Thanks for your response to my post. Even after all this time I'm still trying to get this phone to utilize the entire screen. I'm not sure how you uninstalled Cocktailbar service because I didn't get an option to do so. I have Nova launcher which did get rid of the edge panel but there's still a thin black line on the side of the phone. When the edge panel exists, it utilizes the entire screen but when I remove it by using Nova launcher, I lose the edge panel but I still can't maximize my screen usage because of the thin black bar left on the side. This is so frustrating.
if you dial the service mode , you can test both screen separately , main panel and edge panel , not sure if it one screen at all , thats why note edge is the only curve screen that works ?
I used Uninstall which you can get from the play store. Requires root access, really speeds up the phone when you remove it.
I found a hacky way to get the screen to extend nearly all the way to the edge by dropping the DPI of android system process to 50 and then overriding the DPI of everything else to the normal 640. System notifications are stupidly small and unusable though as well as any edge apps like the camera, see attached. Best option is to bite the bullet and get a Note 4 ROM working I think.
Weird I find the edge screen much more useful without the specialist software. Fast scrolling with a full screen is lovely on the edge bit.
Download and flash a AOSP Rom or Note 4 Rom and then I'd recommend Total Launcher
I'm using MRU Widget as my homescreens softkey row.

Yeah, eventually my tinkering made my phone go bang so I had to reflash. Bit of a pain but can't recommend it high enough. I went for the ROM below, a Note 7 adaption and it's awesome. Have to tinker a bit to get finger prints working but it's straight forward enough.

Hi, I flashed a Note 4 ROM on my Note Edge yesterday, only to find the entire screen worked as a whole! But an issue showed up: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/camera-app-interfaces-malposition-issue-t3960314
Hey,
there was an xposed module on KK and JB those days called "ScreenOffAnimation" with which I could customize how the animation looks like when I power off the screen. The module is still on repo but not working with s7.
Anybody has a clue of, how to make this awesome feature working on s7 maeshmallow?
i guess your best bet would be through xposed
Hi everyone,
I recently upgraded my Note 3 to the S8+.
I'm somewhat happy with the device, but have some issues that really annoy me.
1. Where is the option to disable the proximity sensor while in a call? While trying to enter numbers with the keypad the screen constantly turns off and on, which really hinders me.
2. I installed the high contrast black theme. However, the notifications have stayed black text on white background. Are there any themes that inverts the colors of the notifications as well?
3. Can I flash Team Blackout's zips or the ad free Youtube app without without having a custom recovery of any sort?
4. What functionality will I lose if I root my phone in the future? I'm waiting for Xposed to get released for Nougat/O to switch over to a Lineage OS based ROM to get a better dark themed experience.
otherwise, I'm glad I upgraded. The screen really looks great for watching videos
Answering Q2,3,4
2, no.
3, needs root, so no.
4, Anything Samsung Knox related. Samsung Pass, Samsung Pay, Samsung Health, Private Mode, My Knox, etc...
Thanks. Too bad they half assed the theming so so much.
Samsung Pay isn't available here so I won't miss that. As long as I can use the fingerprint scanner for Lastpass I'll be fine.

gaming performance good ( played more than 12 hours and only 1 crash )
battery backup - normal ( 20% drain for 1 hour COD play with 80% brightness
allround stable for daily use
no notification delay or app crashes.
mifit app runs in the background all the time when enabled from setting so app stability is good.

*Sometimes minor UI bugs like small delays
*gesture navigation is less fluid than MIUI 10
*custom kernels not working

Love this rom. Only First start was a little Trouble because it was in russian but Google helped me for Translation and i could get it to German. Very fast and stable Rom is my Fist impression
after trying this rom for half a day......notification delay(especially whatsapp),
wifi signal strenght is below average,
you cant hide notification shade in lock screen,
silent icon in audio side menu remains showing silent even
after silent is deactivated!!
battery is below average!!.
switching wireless display on turns bluetooth on as well!!(weird).
led sometimes doesnt blink with notification(although turned on in settings!!).
sound during pubg is improved.
coming from pixel experience 10 beta which has its own bugs......miui is a joke!!.

yes i always clean flash ,i disabled battery saver for whatsapp but notifications still rings after 2nd or 3rd message . 1st message takes 1-2 mins to ring!.
pixel experience 10 beta notifications are instant without even changing batt. optimization settings
too bad miui is loosing compared to pe.
Strange I don't have such issues. In my opinion MIUI is faster and more stable then pe also I had very often touch issues on pe and Evo. Even with newest firmware. So every one like he want to have. It's your choice what you are using.

i am having the opposite.....pe 10 beta (14/9/19) build is faster/smoother than this rom and it picks Lte signals in places where miui barely got unstable H+ and battery is much better.
Interesting, I'm on the last Mi9 port still - MIUI 11 but Android 9 - guess I'll try a clean flash and see how it goes!
There's one small problem: because the Mi8's notch is bigger than our phone, the software actually blackout a bit more on the statusbar than the official MIUI11. So if you're doing anything that is fullscreen, basically you're getting less screen real-estate. Not that it's useful for anything, just an observation

Try it and tell me the review about it to correct the bugs in it??
Thanks for this awesome rom.
Everything is working fine, battery backup is also quite good, getting around 6-7hrs SOT in normal usage (i dont play games, only COC). The best thing is only 3% standby drain in 9hrs.
Got 198k in antutu benchmark.
I don't know about heavy game performance (like PUBG, COD)
Is the port for Oxygen Is based on Android Q possible? Otherwise nice ROM, great work.
Encountered a bug.. device isn't restarting when choosing the restart option from power menu
Simply a black screen
Anyways this is a great rom
