I've found a workaround to enable full immersive mode in all apps or on an app-by-app basis. This workaround has two downsides: The camera hole covers the normal status bar as well (the battery value in percent is hidden) and it requires a magisk module which can be a security risk. Here's how to do it:

  • Open Magisk, select "Downloads" in the side menu, search for "None Display Cutout" and install it
  • go to Settings>System>Developer Options>Display Cutout and select the new option "No display cutout - MlgmXyysd"
  • install any app which can control immersive mode (I like "System UI Tuner") to enable immersive mode or enable it only for some apps
  • To partially fix the statusbar go to Settings>System>Statusbar and enable "battery level in percent" next to the symbol
  • With root alignment can be further improved by cpadjsutor. For me the ideal offset is 16

It's a bit cumbersome, but chances are this feature will be integrated into a future version of the ROM

This is a copy of e.g. frameworks/base/packages/overlays/DisplayCutoutEmulation* with some changes to make it None. We could create a copy and ship it in the tree or suggest it upstream.
