Questions around USB and notifications... Only Xposed experts allowed ;) - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Good morning, guys! Rainy day in London, as usual! I´ve almost got used to the sun, but good weather doesn´t last here!
I have some issues with the current ROM I have... It´s great , but there are some things that doesn´t allow her to reach the PERFECTION. I was wondering if any of you know how to fix these things, because I´m getting crazy.
I´m rooted and with Xposed working flawlessly
How can I make volume sliders darker?
How can I avoid the phone to turn on the screen when plugged/unplugged?
How can I disable the USB options from the notification bar when connected?
How can I avoid the icon of fast charge appearing in my notification? (the icon is not the notification itself that I don't mind)
Are they easy questions? No... But I was hoping that any of you have experience in customizing your device as I do
Could you please give me a hand? I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks in advance and have a great day!

I have no idea about the others but the volume sliders can be made darker very easily. Just install Goodlock, once installed go to routines and from there you can change the color of the entire system UI, including the volume sliders.

Thanks! Goodlock? Is that an xposed module or an application?
Thanks again,
Regards.

It's an app.

Thanks!
I sorted all the notification things out with the Xposed module http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.smartmadsoft.xposed.aio
About the slider, I´ve no idea of how to do it... But I´m fine with having all the USB stuff solved

[Solved]CyanogenMod Power Control Widget - solved: use Widgetsoid2.x

edit:
Solved: Go to Market and look for "Widgetsoid2.x"
Thanks for everyone's help!
Hello,
I use CyanogenMod6 on my x10 mini and I've gotten really addicted to the power Control Widget!
I'm not 100% sure if it is the default power control widget for gingerbread/froyo or cyanogenmod specific, but you can really modify the widget before putting in on the screen. On the arc however, one can only put it on the screen with the 5 default switchs.
I tried a lot of other widgets from the market, but NONE could give me the same features! Is there someone who can help me to get the cyanogenmod power widget on the arc?
Thank you,
Linkin
Widgetsoid2.x is what your after i think
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jim2&feature=search_result
omg, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Only question I have left:
The widget wants the permission to:
"directly call phone numbers"
Do you know why the widget wants to do this?
I guess it's because you can assign a contact to one of the widget button if you want to and then pressing this button launches the call straight away (no pop up menu or confirmation needed) !
thank you! Right at this second, I found this page:
http://jaumard.android.free.fr/widgetsoid/informations_widgetsoid.php?lang=en_EN
There every permission is explained!
Thank you for helping me, I love this APP!!!!

Also if you are in a app like the browser and want to enable something like auto-rotate i use mysettings, and enable it in the pull down notification bar,

thanks, but I've never used this option in CM. I only use the power control widget
Widgetsoid2.x is a great app, but... on xperia Arc the power controls in notification bar work only in popup mode. Selecting the icons directy in the notification bar does not work.

That's a limitation in android, unfortunately.
I had an HTC Wildfire with CyanogenMod 7
It had a power bar on notification as a standard and it worked perfectly so I don't think it's Android...
You had a rooted device running a custom rom, which had been tweaked to have this behaviour. I had the same thing running on my hero - the point is that it came built into the ROM, not as a separate app. You arent going to be able to get this behaviour by running an app on an unrooted stock rom.
Now that the arc is rooted, hopefully cyanogenmod will get ported to it, or someone will make some other custom rom with these tweaks, then we will get this functionality.
Exactly my point.
It's not an Android limitation per se. It can be done in a rooted customized rom. I just thought that it could be done by an app on a rooted device.
Thanks

Sound too loud on lowest setting

Hey everyone,
Just getting my note 10.1 setup and so far im loving it. Its my first tablet and the fact it has a stylus finally made having a tablet more practical for me. One thing I am not a fan of is that when I have the sound turned down to the lowest setting it is too loud. Is there any built in eq that I can use to scale the sound?
So far im using a downloaded app "Music Volume EQ" which is working but needs to be running and then it takes up space in my notifications bar which I really dont like.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

I don't know about this specific app, but most apps do have an option to disable notification entries in settings. I was fed up with the Skype app persistently displaying my online status in the notification tray until I noticed an option to disable it in the app's preferences.
'might wanna try looking for it there.

Expand notification bar not working

Hi!
I'm so frustrated right now. After installing the lolliflop upgrade, it seems as if there's no app that is able to pull down the notification bar anymore. Any hint what I can do now? I rely very heavily on this feature and absolutely can't do without it.
Thanks for your help

in nova launcher it was working fine on kitkat, now it isn't working.
I'm back on KitKat again. Too many little deficits which make a big difference in the end. Didn't like the design of the Lolliflop UI anyway btw.

[Q] How to REMOVE STOCK NOTIFICATION PANEL?

The samsung stock notification panel is huge, ugly, obtuse, and doesn't even have many of the toggle options I prefer. For instance flashlight isn't even an option. There are better 3rd party notificaction panels.
Can someone please advise me on how to remove this thing (without rooting)?
Is there an app that can do it?
This is my first post. Looking forward to positive interaction. Hopefully a successful solution too! Lol
Not possible.

Any good news? I'm also interested in removing the notification panel.
No way to remove or change it without root, however, I believe you can add a second one using one of these apps.
Settings Extended, Power Toggles, and Notification Toggle from the play store. Worth a try if it floats your boat.

I've installed "notification toggle" a few days ago and it pleases me a lot. That's the reason I want to dump the stock notification feature.

You know, I think I misunderstood and thought you just wanted to remove some of the toggles or change / add some. I've never seen it completely removed. Doesn't mean it's not possible, but I've never seen it.
You should be able to request a mod and ask somebody to add in whatever toggles it is you want (flashlight, etc.) that aren't normally there. I'm sure one of the modders around would be happy to help you out and do a flashable zip to alter it to your liking. You could also just use an Xposed module to do it.
Check out this page: http://www.xda-developers.com/touchwizs-current-and-upcoming-theming-settings/ Maybe that will lead you in the right direction.
Heh-heh, big thanks @bbeelzebub! I've installed Xposed Framework v2.6.1 (it's working flawlessly) and now I'm looking for the right module. I've tried GravityBox (v3.5.9) but unfortunately it doesn't have the option to customize the notification panel. I'll keep searchin'...
Without rooting, it's not possible. With root, it would be (relatively) simple.

Yes, the device it's rooted. Can you tell me please what should I do? It's worth a try.

Possibly. What exactly is it you're wanting to do? Remove the quicksettings panel?
I want to remove the stock notification panel (android v4.1.2) or, if it's possible, to customize it (add/remove toggles).

A3 Always on Display Notification Colors?

Hello all!
I'm coming from a s5 mini and the one thing I was really sad to let go was the notification led. It's a great feature and I really miss it.
Always on display can do somewhat the same thing, but not that good. I often leave my phone on a table and walk around and I want to be able to just glance at my phone and see if I have any notifications. Yes, always on display shows notification, but it has a clock and 2 lines of text above them, making it harder to distinguish if you actually have notifications from some meters away.
I was thinking if I could change the color of notifications. The clock could stay white, but have a green notification for a miss call for example, that way the notification will pop out and catch your eye.
Also it would be perfect if I could assign different colors for different apps, that way it would act like the beloved notification led..
thats not possible for now but if it interests you heres and an apk that will make aod display notifications only , just install choose analog reboot and its done https://1drv.ms/u/s!AlNdpKNMp2XWkYY01k9kg3-Ax78rjg

thank you, thank you, thank you :good:
I just found this thread. That sounds exactly what I want - I dont want the AOD on all the time - just to give me notifications.
The link above is now dead - Any chance it could be made available again?
EDIT: Probably should add - would this work on an a5 2017 running Oreo?
after quite a lot of searching i found the original thread about it , just scroll down a little until you see downloads and select just notifications , but there are more greatt aod things there. https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/themes/root-customise-display-updated-t3688153
edit: doesnt work on oreo
Ok thanks. I have oreo. Doesn't seem to work.
