Toggle for screen cast? - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There is no toggle to enable cast on the stock rom, but on the custom roms there is. I want to remain on stock but I also want the screen casting to television to work. How to enable it in the stock rom? Please help

Hold down the settings icon for 10 second them in settings you get a new setting open that and you should be able to add cast to notification pull down

It's already there. But in every other phone there is a toggle to enable it and that is when the devices show up. The toggle is in settings. It does not appear in the notification drop down.

If you enable the System UI tuner as described above, you can add a cast button to the notification pull down shade. You then tap it to select the device to cast to.
If thats not what you are looking for, you will have to describe better what you mean.

When you drag your widget to the desktop it will open a configuration box..
under the advanced tab you will see Notification..Just check that box.
heres a screenshot to help
On a different note...global setting for all your widgetoid widgets are accessed from the main app. Anyone wanting to use the led as a flash light, you have to choose Advanced settings in the main app...and under Flash led, pick Method 2 for it to work on stock 3.2 at least. Comes in handy...
See screenshot
This is a really great app. It has a ton of settings

Quick Pulldown and Smart Pulldown

Hi. I'm new to this ROM on my Nexus 7 3g (tilapia). As there is no up to date forum on XDA for this particular device, I am posting here. I can't get Quick Pulldown or Smart Pulldown settings to stick. I set Quick Pulldown to "centre" but when I exit settings and go back in nothing is selected. Same for Smart Pulldown. I can get quick settings by pulling down on the right, but I am unable to change it. Any ideas? I did a clean wipe/flash of the ROM. I'm on the 4/27 build but it has done this on the last 2-3 builds I've used.
When I say I can't change the Quick Pulldown settings, I mean I can't add or remove tiles. I found the switch to rearrange them, but I can't change what shows up. I can't find any setting like in other firmware where I can choose which tiles appear here.

I assume you mean the pencil? All that does is let me rearrange the tiles. I can't add or delete any. Unless I'm missing something. I've tried dragging tiles off the screen, pulling down on the panel in edit mode, etc.

Anyone? Am I the only one with this problem? Maybe there's a conflicting setting somewhere I don't know about that keeps it from being set.

You can't add more tiles. All the available ones are already there.
To remove a tile, just tap on it once while in edit mode. It will fade in the background, and won't be displayed once you exit the edit mode.

Thanks! I was beginning to think I had some sort of unique bug. With no official forum for my device on this ROM I was thinking of switching back to SlimKAT, but I really like this ROM.
I still can't get the options to change the location of the pull down and Smart Pulldown to work, but the default seems to work fine. The settings I choose simply don't stick - if I go back into the option they are all blank.

lock screen notifications!

Android lollipop has made notifications on lock screen.
But can i disable it for individual app. The Option to turn them off in settings also disables it it from the notification bar.
In my case, it is smart remote. It is on lock screen and pretty annoying.
I am using android 5.0 lollipop SM-N900 dr.ketan's rom

The best thing I loved about the Moto X.

There is a way!
Remember... I´m on a Swedish phone and I don´t know whats the different tabs and apps are called in english.
Settings/Sounds and Notifications/Notifications(at the bottom of the page)... the same place where you set wich content is shown on the lockscreen. There´s a app-list where you can block apps from showing notifications...

Thank you but it also switches the notification off from the noti panel. I want to keep it there just want to turn it off from lock screen
Oh... I missunderstood

No, you can't do that. I have wasted hours, couldn't find anything, because there isn't anything.
PS: There might be an app which does that, but not really into that.

System Ui Tuner- how to enable

Want to add battery percentage?
Want to customize the quick toggles?
Pull down the notification bar and press and hold on the settings gear icon
You will see a message upon releasing that system ui tuner has been added to your settings... Enjoy
Doesn't seem like you can really add any Quick Settings... the only tile you can add is a "Broadcast Tile" and it doesnt seem to do anything or show up

On my Nexus 5 (not 5x) I can add these options: Invert colors, Do not disturb, Hotspot, and Broadcast Tile.
On the 5X it shows Invert Colors, DND, and Hotspot as already being in the list even though Hotspot and Invert Colors are not shown unless the features are actually turned on at the time
This won't work for me for some reason? Disable encryption and rooted, only things I can think of that might interfere?
Fixed: Enabled animations in Developer Options again, rebooted, gear finally spun and unlocked the feature.
This is odd. I can't seem to enable System UI on my 5x. It's rooted, unencrypted. I am using Nova Launcher, but even when I revert back to Google NOW I still can't enable it.
I'm pressing down on the cog icon for at least 30 secs easily. Any ideas?
Oh, need to enable animations as noted above.

Yea, I tried to use the Invert Colors toggle just to see what it does but it doesn't show in the notification when I exit the system UI tuner. I honestly hate the embedded battery percentage, wish it showed outside of the battery

How to show notification icons on status bar on lock screen

Hello,
I have POCO M3, MIUI Global 12.0.4, android 10 QKQ1. I really like the phone but there is one thing that drives me mad and that is the fact that the status bar with all notification icons is not visible on the lock screen. In the place where the icons should be, there is just the information about the network provider.
I have tried to look for the way to keep the status bar on the lock screen but to no avail. CustoMIUIzer has the option to keep the floating notification on the lock screen, which is great, but I need to see the icons as well. Does anyone know any way how to do it? Any app, EdXposed module or anything? Maybe I missed something?
Thank you in advance.

You can try to go to settings, display, control center and notification shade, turn off the option "show carrier when device is locked", to see if this works.
Edit: I just tried it myself, and with that option disabled, the icons are still not shown on the lock screen.

That's true, unfortunately it does not work... And the worst thing is that just after pressing the power button when the screen is locked, you can see the icons on the bar for just a fraction of a second before they disappear. I would love for them to stay there.
