[Q] Notification Access Menu Paranoid Android 3.97 - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know where the notification access menu option has gone in Paranoid Android 3.97. I'm pretty sure it was under security in stock 4.3 but I can seem to fine it anywhere in PA. Has it been intentionally removed?
Any ideas?

If you mean the notification history? Then you have to place a settings widget on your homescreen, and once you do so you will be prompted to select which settings you would like to see, then just select notifications. Now you can access the notification history by pressing on that widget

No I mean the notification access menu where you can grant applications that use the NotificationListenerService class access to read notifications:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

I have just checked on a friends stock 4.3 nexus 4 and it seems the menu option has been removed from there, hence not in PA (or any other rom) either.
Does anyone know why this menu option was removed from stock 4.3?
EDIT: I have confirmed the activity is still there and still does the job so just curious why it was removed from the UI.
UPDATE: Browsing the source code reveals that the menu option is hidden if you have no apps that use the new NotificationListenerService. Installing a app that uses makes the menu option appear under the security screen.

Anyway to add the "On/Off" switch in status notification bar of wifi?

Hi all~
I was using Allwinner A10 tablet before + custom rom and the ROM offer few handy things:
1) On the notification bar of wifi, I can immediately turn on or off the wifi instead of requiring to jump to SETTING
2) Want to add bluetooth notification bar as well
3) Long press power button can select reboot or screen capture as well
4) anyway I can add file association to .pdb => iSilo? By now ES explorer knows .pdb is ebooks but when I click it, it will said no program can open it...
Thanks a lot!
You mean like this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
For stock? You could use extended controls, Widgetsoid, or notification toggles. (Apps in tve play store) As for the file part I have no clue.

Most of those are built into Cyanogenmod
You can add notification toggles to the stock ROM with widgetsoid; this video shows how to do it:
http://youtu.be/_GCiEqB5How?t=5m17s
so there is no way to add that button on the built in notification bar? must need a 3rd party widget? ('cause I changed to use tablet UI by altering the lcd.density so normal widget looks odd~ )
Thanks a lot!~

[Q] "Recommended Shortcuts" with headset plugged in

Does anyone know how to get rid of this (in the notification dropdown)? I assume we'll need to wait for someone to create a mod for it but just checking to make sure I'm not missing a setting/option somewhere.
Thanks
I found no way. .. Can't wait for Slim Bean or AOKP to come on s4 so much crap.... It's depressing. ..

thanks....I figured we'd have to wait.

Try disabling the notification setting for the page buddy service. (Go to Application manager, find the page buddy service, and uncheck notification).

Anything useful one may miss with this notification disabled?
Worked for me too! Thanks
Thanks! There was an icon missing in mine after I ran debloater.bat. OCD

Expose earphone settings pagebuddyservice
I was able to expose the hidden menu in settings using Nova Launcher. I created shortcut->Activity->Settings->PageBuddy
Now I can enable/disable all or just earphones, dock or roaming on my AT&T S4.

[REQUEST] Swipe txt/mail notifications left/right to mark as read or delete

Hi guys!
I'm probably not the first one who thought about that, but I cannot find much about it here on xda and I'm curious why it hasn't already be done:
Wouldn't it be possible for devs to include an option to swipe notifications left to mark as read and right to delete (with an "undo" option popping up) in a similar way to the Gmail app? I don't know if this would work system-wide (say, for third-party apps like Whatsapp), but it should at least be possible for SMS and maybe the pre-installed exchange email app.
I think an option like this right inside the notification slide would come very handy for generic SMS no one ever reads like for example provider messages and the like.
What do you think?

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Although that would be useful, I don't think the swipe gesture returns any value to the application. Swipe just gets rid of the notification. The app wouldn't know if it was swiped left or right!
Besides if there are multiple notifications from same app won't all the messages get deleted then?

Hm I don't know much about developing, but if you were to mark it as read, won't the app need more permissions?
I mean in this case THE APP, say gmail, is going to your mailbox and marking the item as read and then returning that "read" value to the gmail servers, instead of your PHONE just avoiding the notification.
Then again I could be completely wrong here. I really don't know
You could also use a third party app : NotifierPro.
by desactivating the notifications from the sms app, and NP pops a banner that you can swipe left/right, to launch/read/dismiss. You can customize that.
But I guess that it would be nice too, to have it directly in the notification panel.

I do use the same ROM - any customization of lock screen widgets natively are found at System Settings > My Device > Lock Screen > Lock Screen Widgets
If you want to regain the bottom shortcuts such as (Phone, Google, Messaging, etc) then make sure "Shortcuts" is checked.
If you're wanting the different 'pages' of widgets on the lock screen, make sure "Multiple Widgets" is selected.
But if you're running your own launcher that may have adjusted your lockscreen, I have no freaking idea.

Stock Note 3 Browser Question

Is there a way to force the stock browser into desktop mode permanently?
Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk 2
I believe there is a setting for this on the Wanam Xposed module. Not sure how well it works and you do need root to use it.
Is that the only way go do it? Is there a User Agent setting that will make desktop the default?
I'd love to have this feature too. I looked all over exposed including download able modules and don't see the option. Any other suggestions.

Anyone know how to fix the browser only displaying the left half of the page?
I figured it out. First type in about:debug then you will see a this page-
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then go into browser settings and select the newly available DEBUG menu option
Finally, go into the DEBUG settings and select the UA menu.
Finally, once inside of the UA menu select the Desktop option. ***Note- you then have to close out all browser windows, open up a new menu and Make sure Desktop view is checked off. NOTE__the browser will remain Desktop mode as long as you don't completely close out of all the browser windows.
Cheers :beer:
