Can you post some FAQ's and all
HTC One Illusion Rom FAQs
How do I enable HALO?
Go into settings. Under Illusion System Settings, select interface. You will find Halo Options. Here you can turn on halo, and tweak the way Halo works.
Where is my Data toggle in the notification pane quick settings panel?
As of right now, the only way to toggle data is through the Data Usage menu in settings. A fix is being worked on for this. I believe the problem exists in quite a few ROMS for the One.
Why isn't my NFC working?
Don't worry, all you need to do is flash the file at the bottom of this post title NFC Fix. This fix was pointed out by @Pony Express.
How do I enable/Disable CRT animations?
CRT off animation can be toggled under Illusion System Settings>Display
How do I access Google Now?
On the HTC One, the HTC logo is NOT a button. However, in the Illusion ROM (and some other ones), the strip above the logo has been modded to work as a button. Long pressing that stip will give you instant access to Now
Are there any other Bugs I should be aware of?
Not sure if it is mac only, or whether this will occur on PC as well, but if you connect as MTP, mac does not recognize it. ADB and PTP work fine. It is only MTP where this issue occurs. At this point, I feel the issue is with Macs being unable to recognize the MTP protocol. I was able to work it on a PC.

@Pony Express for the NFC Fix
@itsmikeramsay for the original ROM and his support.
If Anyone has Feature Requests, post them HERE. NOT in the Dev thread. The Dev thread is really only for dev issues.
I have 3 major bugs/issues I would love to see sorted out.
1. Halo bubble stays at the edge of screen - insanely irritating
2. The Camera is... uhhhm. not as good as the Sense Camera. Any way to port Zoe? or even just the lowlight image processing?
3. I actually think this is how Android lockscreen widget was designed, but by default DashClock only displays clock. I have to expand it to show other info. Is there any possibility for permanently expanded lockscreen widget?
Annnd, A feature Request: Would it be, in any way, possible to port Slims hardware button rebinding feature? I would love to have long press back as multitask, long press home for settings, and swipe up on home for Search...
Also, has anybody with At&t tried NFC fix? Does it work? I flashed it, but no way to test until I go back to school in september (all my NFC tags are in my lockers, and I use it for Science lab access)

Hello,
I'm using Slimkat 4.4.4.8269 since its release. It has a neat feature called the custom tiles which is the feature that keeps me on that rom because I was unable to find a similar function in another ROM.
The Slimroms custom tiles basically lets you set unlimited "custom" tiles in the quicksettings which you can set with apps, os functions or whatever. They take a second action for a long press and they can cycle through multiple apps on that one tiles.
This is basically a quickstarter for apps. The thing that makes this marvelous is actually that opening an app doesn't get that app into the foreground, that statusbar stays in the foreground such that I can open a second and third, etc. app through very few taps.
An example what I use this for: My worst but not rare case here:
Navigation+speedcam warner+mozilla stumbler(wifi and cell existance to gps mapper)+openwlanmap.org (wifi to gps mapper)+openbmap.org (wifi and cell to gps mapper).
The best approach is to use a directory on the homescreen, if my launcher supported it. This way i don't have to search in the app drawer.
So I would open the directory, start app 1, press home screen, start app 2 and so on.
Until i started the 5 apps, I have done (swipes and presses+ app-open-taps combined) 15 actions.
Using custom tiles as slimkat offers it in the status bar I swipe to open the quick settings and then open my apps, 1 swipe+5 taps=6 actions.
This is for me much faster and allows me to pay much less attention to my phone while starting what I want.
However, I would like to update to Lollipop or M, anyways, go with CM most likely but that feature isn't there. I found out that the GravityBox with the xposed framework offers some kind of similar features but it only features 2 custom apps, currently I have a bit more than 20 in my status bar.
I could use "Tasker" for this approach as well, but actually that configuration is rather weird and static to one action/app (condition) which I first have to fulfill. That approach fails if one of the apps is already started and I only want to start one app especially if that meets Taskers condition. I end up using the app drawer and search for my app.
This post pretty much covers the configuration and outcome of the custom tile in Slimroms in two pictures:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/rom-slimkat-hammerhead-stable-5-0-t2511512/post51495728#post51495728
Have you seen any other ROM with decent updates (that seems to be only CM for the hlte at the point of writing) or way to accomplish something similar? It doesn't need to be in the statusbar, even though that is quite easy to access.
Parts of my post I took from my post to a CM feature request at JIRA:
https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-2227?jql=text%20~%20%22custom%20tiles%22
Thanks in advance!
Try Layers, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/themes-apps/systemui-overlays-5-0-t3025183
Thanks for the reply. I think layers is some sort of theming app overlaying the normal icons with other colors. This is something new to me and interesting, but not what I wanted in this thread.
I found something that goes a bit in that direction: Hangars. It displays some appbar in the notification area. Upon opening an app the area disappears and I would have to open the notification area again. Still better than the homelauncher and its folders.
Something I tested previously going into the same direction is the PIE control as well as some sidelaunchers like omnirom and such. Still the custom tiles allow a faster operation.
If anyone is interested in those, you could vote for this as well:
https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-2227, It enclosed this feature.
From time to time I changed to CM or something like it, but return very quickly to my custom quick tiles as they are irreplacible and other roms waste time and I can hardly operate them blindly like slimkat.
Just heads up, Google finally may have thought those tiles to be useful and they were added in Marshmallow. You can only go there using the System UI tuner (google for it, if you don't know what it is. You'll need another app to configure those nicely, like custom quick settings. Due a bug you can't add more than 18 tiles in total, but if you like it and don't need more go ahead. Right now I have 40+ and they're in color.
So far I can't think of changing from the lovely slimkat.
Yes, yes, it's possible to love a phone. Heck, you sleep next to it, don't you? Rate this thread to indicate your love for the Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact, all things considered. A higher rating indicates that the Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact is an incredible phone that you enjoy tremendously. You love it.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
it is a fine and quick device. But after using a custom rom on my z3 compact, i am just missing a few things that i find essential.
1) missing the data traffic monitor 2)missing the option to switch recents and back buttons.
3) missing the 2 extra buttons on the navigation bar.
(yes, they are from gravity box in xposed module)
the standard file explorer is also very bad. it always goes to download map standard, when you want to move or copy a file.
and it has facebook, avg and amazon apps that you can't delete and facebook even has an facebook app manager app that doesn't show up and you need to disable it through the apps menu.

but system ui tuner is there? did you try pressing and holding the settings gear icon in the status bar to see if the system ui tuner appears? tia!
Well that is something new to me. Didn't know that system ui tuner was actually an option. Made the wrong assumption that you meant changing things through the normal menu's. System ui tuner only has options for do not disturb and status bar. No navigation bar . I do have to say that I just updated the software today to a version with the security patches from 1 April.

thanks for the answer, what a pity! so we will probably have to wait for root also to be able to re-arrange navbar buttons :crying: or maybe that is also possible via adb and someone comes out with a solution earlier? :fingers-crossed: what do you think master @serajr? :laugh:
ps. my z2c should be delivered in a couple of days maximum from now! :victory:
@Dxue I know you will be loving me..! :laugh:
I could swap navbar buttons! :victory::victory:
just used this app info who pointed me there was found here!! :good::good:
ps. that app is simply great! apart from swapping the back and recent buttons, I could also add two extra buttons (one for showing the volume panel so I can avoid pressing the hw buttons for doing that, and one for expanding the notification panel) see screen!

that is a great app! thanks for the heads up:good:.
after reading it, i suddenly remembered reading this last year too! I just never took the time to actually remember it, because i used xposed to do all that and felt it was an unnecessary app. UNTIL NOW! hahaha.
btw, i like the theme/icon pack that you are using. mind telling me where you got that from?

newbee, but love it
hello, all
i'm newbee in android phone
but i love this phone for basic (but importants) points
- good autonomie
- compact size
- good apn
- a full 5" screen in a small formfactor
So far I really like this device. It's my smallest device yet and I love it. Performance is great and battery life is outstanding. Low light performance with the stock camera app is my only gripe as it seems to add artifacts. Hoping gcam will be available before too long. Decent case selection especially when compared to the Essential.

Hi,
Does anyone know a way to increase the size of the icons and text in the status bar and possibly change the colour as well?
I know the size can be changed at Settings > Display > View mode, but I find the size quite small even at the largest setting.
The small text and icon size is just made worse by the adaptive colour behaviour, which always sets the hue of the colour the same as the background, (ie. light green for Google Play, light red for Gmail).
As if Huawei was trying to hide what the status bar shows, which kind of defeats the purpose.
Just for comparison, here are some screen-shots from my P10 Plus and from another phone running stock Android (both are on Oreo).
Note that while the stock droid's text and display size is set to Default/Defaullt respectively, the P10 is set to Default/Large (which is as large as it gets for the status bar, since on the P10 plus "text size" has no influence on it).
Any help is appreciated.
Thank You.
Is it really impossible?
Well, from the absolute lack of responses I must conclude, that what I would like is just impossible.
Or am I asking at the wrong place?
Anyone?
Thank You.

If You find any solution or a workaround, please let me know.
I was thinking, that perhaps an app with a widget that can replicate the function and behaviour of the status bar would do the trick, but I could not find one.
(Or perhaps, HUAWEI could just stop being stupid, and make a status/notification bar, that is NOT trying to hide its own content.
Anyone reading XDA from Huawei?)
I agree, it's really hard to see most of the time.

It"s a nice app, but unfortunately it does not solve the problem.
It only lets you select different icons for Wifi, Signal and Battery.
It does not modify the size or colour behaviour of status bar.
But, thanks for the tip, anyway!
Hello,
Please let me know if find any solution for this issue. I am m also facing this issue of small icons in status bar.

Still not fixed with EMUI 10
I share the frustrations of people on this thread but was confident that the new release would sort it out. Sadly not
I just updated my P30 Pro to EMUI 10 and ... same. It's not just that it is not configurable but that the only size is so small. Am I really going to have to root this phone just so that I can read the status bar?

The only way to increase the font and icon size is install another Launcher instead of using EMUI. Huawei really lock down the screen option badly. Try Nova launcher or Microsoft launcher (it is free).
I wish it was that simple

Unfortunately, You are wrong.
It's about the status/notification bar. Launchers can't change that.
Besides , EMUI is not the launcher on Huawei devices, it's much more than that.

There was me, hoping EMUI 10.1 would fix it.... Nope
I found a bare app for this issue on my vivo device but not perfect. The "Super status bar" app makes all text lager enough than they are. But this app doesn't work properly for all devices. It didnt work at 1st but i could get it work by trying repeatedly. The accessibility permission couldnt keep switch on and goes off itself. But when i switch on repeatedly many times later it didnt went off and app worked. But after the latest system update the app stopped for me. So if you could get work this app then don't do further update system as it may disable the app.
Also there're some limitations of this status bar app for ex. no data speed indicator. But for that i used another speed indicator app to show net speed on super status bar. Signal indicator shows bit of signal when there is no signal. The signal type G, E, 4G, LTE only shows only when data is switched on. Yet the time, battery and other common text are big enough on super status bar. Sometimes the paid version may better. There're some gestures also in the app for ex you can set call volume etc by sliding through the status bar and tapping status bar can show power manu etc. You can try it...
Unfortunately i cannot mention the link of Super status bar app as it not allowed here. You can search it by name in play store as "Super status bar". A green color app icon..

I searched thoroughly and couldn't find a thread or a fix. Where do we edit the quick settings in the notification pulldown? Mine is blank, and I don't readily see it in Settings, nor is there an edit function in the pulldown. Suggestions?
You don't have the editing pencil icon on there?

Someone else here solved that by rebooting the phone. Afterward the pencil icon appeared and they were able to set it up. Can't remember which thread at this point.
I've rebooted twice. No success...
Pull down the notifications and then pull down again on the (blank for you currently) quicksettings section and you'll see pencil that lets you edit

Thanks for this. JUST picked up mine and was going crazy since I wasn't seeing the toggles. Very odd that it comes up blank like that out of the box.
Hey I found out the issue here. I had the same thing happen with the T-mobile variant. I did a factory reset and restored my google account and it was still missing. I did a second factory reset and didn't restore and sure enough it showed up. I then did the oneplus restore and nothing changed. I then got the phone unlocked and still no issue. After a restart everything was fine and then I did a google restore. I chose only to restore call logs and messages. The second it was done the quick settings disappeared again. This is clearly an issue with google and this device. Not sure if it's a T-Mobile issue specifically

Ah, thank you, that fixed it for me. Mine was looking just like yours. And when I locked the screen and then pulled down the notifications drawer, a pencil did appear which let me fix it all up.
I think I might know what broke it for me. When I upgraded my OnePlus 5 from OxygenOS 5.1.7 to 9.0.3, I still had jOnePlus Tools [adb/root] by JRoot3D.dev installed, and it was changing how many quick settings tiles are shown after one swipe down (in the single row). I think it was essentially doing this:
Code:
adb shell settings put secure sysui_qqs_count 8
When I used the app to change that number, all my quick settings tiles disappeared. The app has not been updated in a while, so I'm going to keep it off my phone until it's updated for Android Pie
Just as a quick update on this. This is still a problem on the T-Mobile device on 9.0.13 fully stock.
I guess this must then mean that the quick setting cannot be hidden on the lockscreen...

Actually, I think I found a better solution here.
The trick seems to be that on the unlocked version of the shade, the pencil and user switcher icons only show up when you expand the QS panel. However, if you don't have enough icons in the panel to force the need for the additional row (there is a little hint that shows up when you drag an icon that indicates that you need at least 6 icons), then you can't swipe it down, and there no icons or any warning of any sort are shown.
The shade on the lockscreen doesn't appear to enforce that icon minimum, so the pencil and user switcher show up fine (perhaps this is due to the fact that on the lockscreen, the notifications themselves don't live in the shade as they do when the device is unlocked).
It also seems like older OOS versions didn't enforce that icon minimum, so if you only had, say 4 icons (not sure who would do that), then did an upgrade, you would have this strange behavior.
