Fixing every DSB issue

Tap on your the title of your interest:

Nothing happens / my device booted but DSB is not being applied
My device is not booting / I'm facing UI crash - blackscreen - bootlooop
Icons on statusbar are getting cut
Dots are appearing on my statusbar instead of notification icons

Litterally nothing has changed

Most of the times when this happens people claim that the module is not working, but acutally it's exactly the opossite situation here since a not working Magisk module directly leads to a bootloop or gives booting issues

To sum up, 80% of the times the module is not properly enabled, and 20% of the times another visual module is giving issues when it's flashed along with DSB. Let's fix both situations:

How to enable DSB

• To enable left side set your clock on left side

• To enable right side of Style 1 for AOSP set your traffic indicator location to expanded header or QS / quick statusbar

A before and after should look something like this:

Nothing happens

If you have followed the instructions from above and still your statusbar doesn't have DSB enabled then you probably have installed another visual module like SIS, Flowdor, or any substratum module which affects your statusbar or QS. They won't work together with DSB unless you merge their Magisk modules on a single zip:

Remove both Magisk modules from Magisk app, reboot
Unzip either DSB or Substratum zip module file
Copy every non present file and folder from the untouched zip to the folder created after unzipping on the previous step
Zip everything again, flash in Magisk and reboot

You can also ask in support group for an admin to help you with this

Device not booting

You'll need to remove the module from your recovery, then report the issue on support group mentioning your device and rom version.

Here you have a quick tutorial with images on how to remove modules from recovery:

On OrangeFox you'll find a Magisk Manager on its Menu, delete DSB module from there and then reboot to system.
On TWRP (Or with every recovery without a Magisk Manager) you can use its file manager instead and navigate to /data/adb/modules. Once you're in there delete DSB folder, then reboot to system.

Icons are cut

There are different solutions to this, let's check them to the most popular to the less popular:

Change your statusbar height from Settings > Developer Settings > Display cutout. (Some roms have this feature on Settings > Display Settings > Display Cutout).

You'll find a menu like this one, try different heights and choose the one you like the most:

Try increasing your dpi number, as it'll make your icons smaller
If your only icon cut is traffic indicator as shown on the following image, then flash this fix module

If your only icon cut is battery icon as shown on the following image, then increase your statusbar height as detailed on fix #1, or set battery percentage inside of battery icon

If your notification counters are out of place and are getting cut as shown in the following image, disable them from your rom settings as they won't work together with DSB module

Dots after some notifications

Android have a limit of the amount of notification icons which can be displayed, so you can use this dotkiller module to remove that limit

Here is an example of before and after dotkiller:

(Ok, actually, with dotkill the limit of your notifications will change to 7-8 which usually is the middle of your screen on portrait mode, because if you had even more notifications they'd overlap with right side icons)
