[Q] notification in bottom

can i get notification in bottom of my mini cm x8 screen?

In CM7 there is an option to set notification bar on bottom of the screen but I don't think that you can do that with CM6 (miniCM,floyo,etc.)...

[Q] Android 4.2 ... no rotation button? no quick settings?

I just updated my Nexus 7 to Android 4.2 JOP40C and it seems the very handy rotation button in the notification pull-down is gone. No quick settings either, it's just all gone.
Is it really just gone?
Is there some way to re-enable it?
Why would Google do that? Particularly after enabling home screen rotation in a recent update.

The buttons you're looking for can be found in the new pulldown with 4.2, you can find it by swiping from the top down with two fingers, or by swiping on the right side of the screen. I think.

does the launcher auto rotate when in landscape now?

Oh! Swipe on the right side of the screen does it. Like on the Kindle Fire. Thank you!

If you have rotation enabled and as at least 4.1.2, it does.

Indeed the top right corner swipe does bring quick settings but there's no way i can bring it with two fingers :-/
it might have been removed from final release. i tried and tried with fingers near, far, (wherever you are), but no way.
ps: i'm on a nexus 7

okay but how to customize them i have stock ones and no rotation with them

Have the same issue - no rotation-lock button in the quick drop-down, so thanks for pointing out the quick settings.
Does anyone know how to revive the little icon that should appear next to the date in the drop-down with a non-rooted N7?
Thanks!

[Q] What's this icon?

Hi
I was wondering what this icon means in my notification bar?
It is this small dot on the left of my bar and it only appears when I'm watching YouTube videos on full screen. Whenever this shows up the color is slightly weird.

Try shutting down running apps in the Task Manager to see if anything removes it from the Notification Bar.
Also you could try using add on detector from the store.

its your Google Now notifications

When you are watching movies/etc and it dims the notification bar, that symbol appears if you have any notifications.

Thanks!

[Q] Any way to move the notification panel to the bottom of screen(similar to IOS)

Is there any way show the notification panel by swiping from the bottom of the screen instead of the top(default)?

basically is there anything that will allow me to view the expanded notification panel without having to pull down from the status bar?

You haven't gotten any responses because it isn't possible. End of story. New to Android?

Nah but upgrading from a galaxy s4 that has been on 4.4 for 3 years(custom rom) With the new galaxy, its harder to reach the status bar when using one hand.

I agree with you with this one... The navigation bar is a bit of a pain to reach, Although pinning apps to edge bar seems to work OK for me.

then use the one hand operation to make it easier. that's what it is there for. tap the home button three times. that will make the screen smaller, and easy for one hand operation. if you don't have it setup, then go into settings, and advanced settings.

You should try the notification edge panel I bought it straight away then i realised I could of bought the edge notification panel from playstore with the reward app I had.

No way to move the notification pull down itself, but using Nova Launcher Prime (the pay version), you can set up a screen gesture to open the notification shade. You can assign to a downward swipe (starting anywhere on the screen), or a double tap, or other options. Unfortunately, I think this only works from the home page, not from within another app.

Yup. best answer!
I've been using this for years. Still not the same as having a smaller phone though.
Swipe down for notifications, swipe up to sleep.

I should have posted an update but found a work around.
Using All In One Gestures app, I can swipe up from the home button and it will expand the notification panel. This works in any app unlike the Nova option.

Hi, you can use fooView, it allows to expand notification just pulling down the floating icon down, and other actions like back, home, recent, etc. with just one hand.

Samsung S8 Notification Bar Issue

My notification bar is always dropping down (sometimes intermittently) when I am using the Samsung S8 without me having to pull it down or receiving notifications. It is becoming quite annoying because every few seconds I have to drag it back up so that I am able to use the phone. Has someone else encountered the same issue?
Regards,

Press on the little white dot far left, it makes it stay uo.

It kept the bar visible or let it slide down.

Go to setting, search for navigation bar. The top item says show and hide item. That toggles the dot on and off.

That dot from the far left it is for the navigation bar. I was referring to the notification bar, the one at the top of the screen. Also every now and then the apps edge blinks intermittently and it coincides with the notification bar drop.

Did you enable fingerprint gesture to pull down notification shade? Settings>advanced features and then see under "finger sensor gestures"

No, I didn't. The settings are the factory ones.

Are you using a screen protector?

Yes I do, but the issues started before adding the screen protector. I took it down and still it persists

The problem was solved. If you ask me what caused the issue I have no ideea. All I can do is describe the exact steps I took.
1. I took of the screen protector just in case it was causing the issue
2. I restored the phone to factory settings
3. After that I didn't install any apps and didn't intstall any backups, no passwords, no face recognition, no pin, I omited all of the steps.
It seemed to have worked flawlessly I have no idea why and what was actually casing the issue with the notification bar. One day has passed so far and no notification bar issue so far.
I hope it's gonna stay this way
