        With Xenial, for the devices with a notch (like the Volla Phone) there was a script to patch it and move the indicators to the right:

        https://github.com/JamiKettunen/lomiri-notch-hax

        It still hasn't been updated to Focal, but it looks simple (substituting "unity8" for "lomiri" in the code, as far as I can tell).

        Has anybody already produced this new patch? Or is it worth it to fork the above repo and change it?

            @wgarcia The maintainer is very active, so maybe if you open a PR against the repo with the proposed change it would be accepted.

              @arubislander It seems that he already updated the script for Focal, I was still using an old version. I haven't tried the new version yet, I will try it and report back.

                Indeed, the current version of the script works well for the original Volla Phone.

                  And there is also this very interesting proposal present https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/packaging/ayatana-indicators/ayatana-indicator-display/-/issues/2#note_1231292424 so hopefully one day it will get into the images by default.
