Show current SSID under WiFi indicator in Notification panel I tried searching for a solution but this seems so stupidly trivial I can't even find any posts about it, not even a hint in those Android tips 'n tricks articles. The closest I could find is Add wifi network name in notification?, but it wasn't really applicable to my issue here.

I'd like to show my current WiFi SSID below the WiFi indicator in the Notification panel. See image below for example, I've marked where it should be with a red border.

Reason for asking is because a friend of mine with the exact same phone shows the SSID below the WiFi indicator, I saw it with my very own eyes. His phone was not rooted, just to be clear.

Phone details:


Model: Samsung SM-G900F
Android version: 6.0.1
Kernel: 3.4.0
Home screen: Google Now Launcher.
Rooted: no


I just tried changing Home screen to Samsung's TouchWiz, but it made no difference for the SSID indicator.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated, or please let me know if I didn't provide enough information. The fact it's such a small issue is bothering me even more.
I think android version is not the same anymore as on the question but on 7.0 (Nougat) if you pull down the status bar using 1 finger you don't see the wifi SSID (1st picture) and if you use 2 fingers you can see more icons and details (2nd picture), including the SSID. See pictures (on the same fone). (obs: pulling with 1 finger and pulling a 2nd time is the same as pulling with 2 fingers)
