I just realized that since upgrading to 4.2.1, I can now toggle GPS on and off directly from my Power Toggles widget.
Previously, it would take me to Location Settings where I would have to enable GPS (been like this for third party apps since Android 2.x or thereabouts). Confirmed it's not some trickery on the part of the widget by installing the same widget on a different device with a lower Android (4.0.4) and on that device, pressing toggle in Power Toggles still takes me to Location Settings and does not toggle GPS directly.
Anyone else notice this ?
Also, I am not referring to the Power Control widget that comes with stock android, as that is built into system and always allowed direct toggling of GPS. I am referring to a third party app downloaded from Play Store.
Got my N4 yesterday and it came loaded with 4.2 (no need for an update out of the box), but I haven't noticed the activity you were describing. Just tested 3 times while checking running services and status in Settings.

This happened after update from 4.2 to 4.2.1 - do you have 4.2.1 ?

It's because of an update of Power Toogles app, not related to OTA at all:
Code:
*Fixed Notification icon picker crash issues, sorry for this.
Added screen rotation lock toggle.
GPS 1-click in some cases
Fixed some image manipulation bugs which was causing pixeled icons
1-click airplane mode for rooted android 4.2 (if installed as system app)
Few minor UI fixes
OIC. no 4.2.1 for me yet. Tried to force it a couple times, but nothing.

Try reconfiguring the status bar within the Android settings: Settings -> Notification Drawer -> Show power widget. If this option is not ticked, enable it. If it is, disable it, reboot and then reenable it. Does it show now?

Thr Is No Notification Drawer Option In Settings.
This is correct - this option is not available on your version of Android, my fault. In this case I have no solution for you. Reinstalling the ROM solves your problem, you can backup your call history, your SMS, MMS, contacts etc. via MyBackup Root. This will make sure that you do not loose any data. The backup is compatible to newer versions of Android too.

Use titanium backup.

see this site
http://www.enfeuman.com/2011/05/19/how-to-hide-notification-bar-on-android-phones/
and do the reverse procedure in order to make appear instead of hiding the bar
or else install a third party software like this

in my opinion it is the best
Best to re-brush firmware.
No status bar after Full Screen activated with Pie
I had this problem after I added Pie to my quick setting panel and then selected it. Finally figured out what happened. To get the status bar back I held down the power button and selected Full Screen (Pie), which switches from Enable/Disable.
I'm using Paranoid Android based on 4.2.2 with Samsung GS3.
I am on the official CM10.1 RC2. I didn't flash anything else other than a fix for Wi-Fi ARP when in sleep mode, as well as an older radio to enable LTE.
What has been going on every since I flashed my first CM10.1 nightly (got the phone on May 2) is that every other time I wake the phone, the lockscreen widgets disappear.
This is a 100% predictable and totally consistent pattern. If I wake the phone and my lockscreen widgets are visible, then the next time I lock the phone and wake it, the lockscreen widgets disappear. If I wake the phone and my lockscreen widgets are missing, I can guarantee they'll come back if I immediately lock and wake it again.
I know it's not an Android 4.2 problem, because my sister's HTC One S doesn't have this issue and it's set up the same way.
To illustrate what I mean, these are the two states my lockscreen always alternates between:
Been trying to find an answer for this... maybe I'm not using the right keywords :/
EDIT: SOLVED - Turns out Lockscreen Policy was the culprit. I disabled both widgets and camera and that was causing cLock to disappear every other time. Allowing widgets while disabling the camera eliminated the problem. Hope this helps others in the future!
Make sure you don't have two lockscreen clocks. If so, delete one.

I don't think I have two clocks. All I can find in the settings is the "Clock widget" in the Lock screen section which is what I want to use.
Any idea where I might have accidentally placed a second clock if that's the case? I didn't download any clock or calendar apps - I use the stock ones. I did restore a lot of stuff from Titanium backup on my old phone, but I clearly remember that system settings wasn't something I restored.
edit: I checked Titanium Backup and noticed that the "Clock" app (not the cLock app/widget) had been restored from my previous phone which ran CM10, not CM10.1. I remember that on CM10, the clock was right-justified, not centered, and that is what my 2nd screenshot (the scenario I want to get rid of) is showing.
Is it possible that I inadvertently restored the CM10 lockscreen clock from my old phone? I hope that doesn't mean having to wipe. I really can't find anything in the settings that might indicate the presence of more than one clock.
EDIT: SOLVED! It turns out that the Lockscreen Policy app was the culprit. I had disabled both widgets and the camera in Lockscreen Policy because I don't want people messing with my phone as a joke (otherwise what's the point of a PIN...). Re-enabling the widgets while keeping camera disabled solved everything. I confirmed that disabling widgets in Lockscreen Policy would immediately bring back this problem.
Tbh, I'd prefer having the old CM10 lockscreen, without those side widgets or the camera, and the ability to slide to a ring shortcut before bringing up the PIN

libart.so
Is it possible to use 4.4.1 libart.so at 4.4 rom?
I took on the OTA 6.0 update a few days ago. My Moto X is not rooted and the boot loader is not unlocked. It is completely stock and on the AT&T network. Before the update I could reliably use the chop method to turn the flashlight on, but after the update I can not get it to activate. I verified the option is on in the "Moto" application, but my wrist now hurts from trying a variety of chopping and shaking motions.
I also don't see a flashlight/torch icon in the the notification pulldown quick settings. It is driving me nuts. Has anyone else seen this after installing the update?
Working fine here.

Works the same as loli for me
Do you have the ability to turn on the flashlight from the quick setting in the notification panel?

I have the same issue as you, but I do have the flashlight icon on the quick settings. Curiously, twist to turn camera on works.
I think I would be ok with the chop not working if I could find a way to turn it on without downloading a 3rd party app.

Did you check through SystemUI tuner if the tile can be added back? If not, have you tried to use Custom Quick Settings app on the PlayStore to manually add the tile back to quick settings?
I rebooted the phone, and now it is there in the notification quick panel and the chop is working. That was driving me crazy.
Thanks for the help everyone.
I upgraded my phone yesterday to 6.01, and I'm running stock rooted. Ever since the upgrade, some of my quick tiles are mislabeled. Some examples are that it says hotspot under flashlight, and pattern required when you restart under the airplane mode iconView attachment 3581290
Also, my lockscreen has the clock in the 24 hour format.
Is anyone else having this problem, and do you know how to fix it?
Thanks!
Do you have Xposed/Gravity Box installed? I have noticed on previous devices that when you update Gravity Box it can cause things to display in the wrong spots or look odd.
You could also try going to System UI Tuner and turning those tiles off and back on again.
I don't have xposed installed. I tried to delete the icons and added them back, but they are still mislabeled.
You flashed the key swap. Not compatible with 6.0.1. You need to flash the new version. I had the exact same thing.

Thanks so much! That did the trick. It did not occur to me that switching the softkeys would cause that problem. I will definitely remember this for the future.
