If you do not see this option

• Your phone does not have One UI 8.5 yet Samsung says the rollout schedule and version number vary by region and carrier. Check Settings, Software update; depending on the carrier the button may say Download and install, Check for system updates or Check for software updates.

• You still see Show battery percentage Samsung says the switch was renamed Show battery background from One UI 8.5, so a phone on older software still has the old name. Source: Status bar issues on your Galaxy phone after the One UI 8.5 update

If this does not work

• Notification icons appear twice in the status bar Samsung says this comes from Prioritize notifications: Settings, Notifications, Notification highlights, Prioritize notifications, and turn it off. Source: Status bar issues on your Galaxy phone after the One UI 8.5 update
• The signal icons overlap Samsung says this is the new One UI 8.5 design on phones with two SIMs (a SIM card and an eSIM). The icons separate when you open the quick panel. Source: Status bar issues on your Galaxy phone after the One UI 8.5 update
