control panel in notification drawer.

hey guys, ive had my nexus for a while, but i switched over from an iphone and on the iphone there was a plug in called sb settings which allowed you to swipe your finger across the status bar and a small control panel would drop down giving you options to dim your screen, turn wifi and other toggles on and off, and gave you your system info all without having to leave the current app you were on. i was wondering if there is such a thing for android, where you have a control panel in the notification drawer.?

A free app called 'Bar Control' will let you put shortcuts in the notification bar.
I use this with 'Switches', a paid toggling app, and a free app 'Wifi Status' (that warns you if you have wifi on but no connection to a network).

Quick Settings free on the market will also do this. Nice little program I use it every day.

+1, works great (although it could do with a UI uplift).

exactly what i was looking for. works great. thankss. itd be cool if the led flash was supported for nexus. but it gets the job done.

It would be good, I'm stock so not sure if LED torch works with root.

the led torch app for the N1 defenitely requires root

AT&T Software started updating on its own? V42_1_1303_0_5

So I was hanging up on a call and noticed that in the "ongoing" notification, it said"device management - downloading software update, please do not" and had a little notification icon on the bar of 2 arrows facing opposite directions grey/blue one red. I tried to click the notification but got nothing, so I long press and looked at app info. It said AT&T software update Version v42_1_1303_5_1. I have tried searching this exact version number but nothing comes up on here or on google. I shut the phone off until further notice so I can see if this update is going to screw me in any way. Right now I am just rooted w/ TWRP recovery, but I don't want to do anything that locks this phone up. 32gb AT&T S4.
Thanks
EDIT: scratch that, i had written down the version number incorrectly, it is trying to download v42_1_1303_5_1 (not _0_5). Still, does this mess things up bad? trying to read that now.
Also, the watch on app out of nowhere is now putting its remote in the notification pull down at start up without me even touching the application. I like the app and use it from time to time but I havent touched it in a few days and now it is auto-starting on its own, strange.

Hey, I noticed the watch on app doing the same thing on mine. I didn't realize I got an update but my phone did do an unexpected reboot and watch on was running in my notification tray also.

It's just a theory, but it sounds like "Samsung Push" services might be doing some updating for you.

[Q] Lockscreen rotation fully working?

Has anybody got lockscreen fully working? I'm using wanam mod to enable rotation. but sometimes when it rotates back to portrait, phone crashes and reboots. Also in landscape mode the screen only shows half of the wallpaper, the right half of the screen is black. I remember there was a fix for this problem back in note 1/note 2 days, but I just can't find it anymore. Any suggestion?

Alright, I solved the problem by installing gravitybox and set lockscreen wallpaper from there. and yes, before anyone asks, gravity box works for note 3.

I did a few things before everything worked.
1. Disable unlock effects in system settings.
2. Set wallpaper for both home and lock screen using system settings.
3. Disable any mod that allows multiple widgets on lockscreen and use the option in system settings only.
Try these first and see whether they work for you.

I had a module causing conflict. I disabled "samsung multiple widgets" module and everything was working fine.

[Xposed] Unboucne

Hi,
I just installed Xposed module Unbounce.
Could we use this thread to share our settings ?

It might help if you explained a bit about what Unbounce is for those that don't know, and link to the info
Xposed Repo - http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.ryansteckler.nlpunbounce
Play Store - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ryansteckler.nlpunbounce

It seems this provides the same functionality as Wakelock Detector and Wakelock Terminator. @Lennyuk Would you mind confirming this? And is there anything this or the other apps do that the other doesn't?

Not used it before, but as far as I can tell its like a hybrid between Wakelock Terminator and Greenify.

One of the first modules installed after root. Worked great on my aosp S3 and so far so good on the G3.
I set most of the settings to 300.

Could you please share with us some of wakelocks you blocked?

What do you think of this screen shot?

RILJ= 400
NlPWakeLock =400
NlPCollectorWakelock= 400
UlrDispatchingService= 400
Now these work for me. I didn't unbounce everything that woke the kernel or cpu under 3 min. I get very few wakelocks anyway and my phone deep sleeps 90% of the day

I used unbounce "default settings" for 2 days and noticed a stutter swiping through my home screens. Using Nova launcher. I un-installed the app and everything was smooth again.

I'm wondering does Unbouncing(taming) do more harm than good?
Example: if a process can't complete a function, will it make more calls in an attempt to complete the process.

Miui Theme customisation

Miui allowed mixing of various components like icon pack, status bar, luck screen etc in themes previously. But now customise option only comes one when we clear the Theme app's data then disappears. Any solution to this?

Try force stop theme app from settings and then clear data and disable internet connection on the phone(important!!!).Reopen theme app with no internet,after enable internet,choose customize and you will have access to all features,but you will need to make this procedure every time,when you will want to change something.

Yeah that's exactly what I'm doing for changing individual items. Maybe an update would solve it. Anyone can check whether it happened on the previous MIUI version of RN3?

Umm..wouldn't Clearing Data remove all the downloaded themes? What's the point of customize then?

No it doesn't remove the themes. Just some settings and the cache.
