Shell into the device (with adb shell
) and use the following commands to expand/collapse status bar:
# Expand status bar
service call statusbar 1
# Collapse status bar
service call statusbar 2
Note: If device is rooted the commands may need to be called as su
(with adb shell su
).
The service call was tested on a non-rooted device.

Another way. By using "adb shell cmd
"
- Expand
adb shell cmd statusbar expand-notifications
- Collapse
adb shell cmd statusbar collapse
- You can expand quick settings also
adb shell cmd statusbar expand-settings
Please check help for more:
adb shell cmd statusbar help

Any idea how I can make it work on **Windows Subsystem for Android**? – Kahan Bhalani Mar 03 '22 at 06:36

If you want to pull the notification information of an android device to your shell over adb, you can use this command
adb shell dumpsys notification
If you want to drag down the notification area, you can try mokeyrunner.
