I just installed the new PA but I'm not able to use pie at all. I've set it in immersive mode and I've tried swiping the all sides but the pie isn't showing up. What can I do to fix this?
Thanks.

Move your finger up gently from bottom of screen when in immersive mode. Hold it there to see 3 pie buttons.

I've tried that, the status bar just pops out from the top and the back,home and recent buttons from the bottom. What else could be the issue?

Disable immersive mode, then go to settings>backup & reset>reset preferences (under personalization). Enable immersive mode again and you should see the popup asking if you want to enable pie. See if it works.

That worked great. Thank you so much.
[Q&A] Silent mode missing after 5.0 lollipop update on Galaxy S5? Now priority mode.
Edit: solution below (4th post). But be cerful for disabling your alarms.
<rant>
I have a Galaxy S5 SM-G900F. As a power user i need to factory reset my phone every half year to keep it running smooth. Since it was time for that anyway, i combined a fresh start with flashing the official polish 5.0 lollipop S5 rom (the updated one
PDA: G900FXXU1BNL7 ). It looks and works great. Ok, more blacks would work better with the amoled screen and it can easily take 2-3 seconds to open the task switcher, which is extra annoying if you have to also use it to jump to another browser tab. But i didn't find any major bugs and i generally love it. But one thing is driving me so crazy I'm considering going back to 4.x and staying there.
WHERE IS THE FRACKIN SILENT MODE?????
Sorry for the caps but that's kind of how i feel. Apparently it's not a bug but a feature. In vanilla, stock android on the nexus and moto g, you have to assign priority people or apps that can disturb you in priority mode. And then there's the "none" mode where your phone is completely silent. But those modes are not there in touchwiz. And people can't get their phones silent on other hardware too. Apparently Google will do a reintroduction of the feature in 5.1. But i don't know what that's worth. It will take ages for Samsung to incorporate and I'm starting to distrust google. With Google maps I'm still missing some features they cut out, such as measuring the direct distance between two points in the app. And they brought back writing to microsd cards with a special api, but i still can't edit word documents in any of the seven office apps I've tried (including several purchased ones).
</rant>
Anyway, I've tried everything i could think of to find silent mode:
* tap the vibrate/sound button in the quick toggles, it only switches between sound and vibrate, silent is gone
* long press power button: sound settings are removed from this menu
* go to settings - sounds and notifications: again there's only sound and vibrate mode. Silent mode is missing.
Please help me. The only workaround i found is to manually set all vibrates to really soft. But where is the silent mode? This is a feature that has been present in phones since before the wheel was invented. Did they really forget it? Or leave it out in purpose?
Silent mode is implemented in priority mode (stupid move by sammy)

Thank you for replying but where can i find this priority mode?
remove me again sorry
Solution
Ok, found it. You mute your phone with priority mode, but that's rather hidden...
WARNING: your alarms will not go off of you set priority mode to none.
open the all toggles: swipe down from the top of your screen with two fingers (or swipe down once and tap the icon in the upper right with three squares and two arrows)
here you see a toggle called all. Set it to none for silent mode
tap the pen icon to edit the layout, long press the all/none toggle and drag it up to put it in your directly accessible toggles
you can go to the settings for priority mode by long pressing the toggle. You can also find it under sound¬ifications - interruptions (not called priority mode!!!)

But I think that with "none" mode, even your alarm won't go!

This is not something implemented by Sammy, this is a Lollipop Google feature and sucks.
I had a widget for doing this and the App developer says that there is Nothing he can do
why they did this God Knows
what the heck is wrong with android developers nowadays? I hated this option.
At least silent mode will be back in 5.1
I am on EE and when I upgraded to Lollipop I lost this silient mode like everyone else did. My mate on Virgin also lost it but about a week later he received an update and he gained back this functionality.
There's now an XPOSED module for enabling native silent mode in lollipop

Silent mode is back in BOB7

I'm very confused by this "priority mode" thing. I would really like it simple....I can put my phone on silent at night and have my alarm go off, and still receive ALL notifications while I'm sleeping, but they're silent. Then during the day while I'm at work, leave it on silent, but receive all notifications. I really really don't like that no matter what, silent mode mutes all notifications and alarms. It seems like I have to have it on vibrate in order to have the alarm work. I've googled this so many times and read so many articles, but it still doesn't make sense. Also I couldn't care less what order the notifications are.
who install and active XPOSED module in Rom 5 ?please help me....
The auto rotate on my phone has stopped working and I cannot find the toggle in quick settings. Anyone know how to turn auto rotate back on?
Edit:
Okay I am officially embarrassed - The quick settings text on this changes from "Auto Rotate" to "Portrait" -- so I was looking for "Auto Rotate" and completely overlooked the "Portrait" button in the quick settings pulldown.
DUH!!
same - you're not the only one. Your response was very helpful! thank you!
Dear XDA Community,
As you know thanks to touchwiz it is still possible to turn on silent mode on Android 6.0.
I have been searching the web for hours but could not find "a simple app that when launched turns on silent mode without the need to tap anything (like a widget)".
Can you tell me where to find such an app ? or create it for me ?
I would really appreciate it and I think it help other people facing the same issue.
You must be thinking why isn't he using a widget or an app with a button to tap or something like tasker for silent mode. Well that's because I don't like Tasker and use "Smart connect" instead but Smart connect has limited sound options (ring/vibrate/Do not disturb). However Smart connect allows you to launch an app automatically, so a workaround could be to launch this simple app automatically.
Why the following solutions won't work for me :
- Do not disturb mode
On samsung phones correct me if I'm but you can't set up more that one DND profile. The problem is I need silent mode when I'm at work where I can't accept any sound. On the other hand I use DND at night where I only allow calls (in case of emergency).
- Sound mode toggle widget
I want silent mode to turn on in a certain time period on weekdays. I don't want to have to press a widget every time. I don't even need a widget for that because I could tap on the quick setting in the notification menu.
- A tasker like app for sound modes
Would work but I don't like the idea to have several tasker like apps on my phone. I believe having multiple tasker-like apps triggers wakelock that would impact battery life and/or create wakelocks.
I recently upgraded to Nougat (not rooted, stock), and double tap to sleep in Nova is officially broken! I have tried many apps from the App store claiming they work (Screen Lock Pro, Screen On/Off etc.) and nothing is giving the functionality I had in MM with double tap to sleep, and unlocking via FingerPrint.
It always asks me for a PIN! What I have found out is that sometimes DTS works (when no notifications come in), when notifications come in, it asks for a PIN again.
I'm so frustrated about not having such a simple feature working, does anyone have any ideas?

go to setting > accessibility > select nova > turn off the switch
restart your device and go to setting > accessibility > select nova > turn ON the switch
there is known issue for Galaxy phones and some gesture input & etc for nova launcher and they provide accessibility service to solve it.
:good:

I've tried all that, it still doesn't work at all
I received the Samsung Galaxy 7 upgrade to 7.0 today. I spent time exploring all settings. I went into accessibility settings and attempted to try some of the options. However, now I am unable to access anything on my phone. There is a voice that identifies whatever I toucj and says it outloud. It will not do anything else, so when I tap on an icon I am basically locked out.
