Battery below 5% and it disappears. Part of power save mode.

Had it gone into power saving mode previously? On my old s4 when it went to power saving mode sometimes i had to restart to get everything back.

Go to settings - notification panel and check if brightness adjustment is check.
Swiping from dark side of Galaxy S5.

screenshots of the settings etc would go a long way

I had to hard reset the phone

I fixed this using Night Mode from Play apps
This happened to me. I read on another forum that someone fixed this by installing "Night Mode" from Google Play apps and toggling the app to be ON, then toggling it to be OFF. I did this, and immediately my auto brightness slider and toggle box were back in the notifications panel.
Hope this helps anyone else searching for a fix for this problem.

I can confirm that "Night Mode" app fixed the very same issue on my Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini.

Thanks

What status (notification) bar do you use?

I'm currently using Omega StatusBar but it's buggy at best. After enabling in accessibility settings I find that the counters are frequently incorrect, apps stick around after clearing notifications, and ongoing notifications don't play very nice.
Anyone using a statusbar with more success? Which one?
I'm looking for any which display icons for notifications rather than the vague circle with a number within it as present in the stock os. It's good to see what's going on at a glance without swiping down.

+1 want to know the best bar too xD
I wasn't even able to get Omega StatusBar to display notifications on my 8.9" HD. As soon as I turned on the "accessibility" option necessary for it to intercept notifications, I got a force close.
I've tried a couple of other status bar replacements from the Play store with the same results -- all fail turning accessibility on. I've seen reports of other 8.9" users having the same problem.
I would certainly like to hear of a working status bar that doesn't have this problem.
The stock status bar works.

You have to go to the Kindle's settings -> accessibility -> then turn on the option for Omega Statusbar accessibility.
From there you can turn on the accessibility within Omega's app. It might force close but it will work.
At that point when you open the Omega app you will want to hit the button on the top-right-most of the screen. It turns on the status bar. You should instantly see the statusbar pop up.
It doesn't always clear notifications though. I guess this is an android limitation with what gets sent to the accessibility api.
Hope that works for you.

Oh and if you're stock or stock rooted and you don't have accessibility settings within the Kindle's settings menu use KFHD Extended Settings to access it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2124384

Thanks, I got it working. It wasn't worth it, though. Wasn't much of a functional improvement, didn't look that much better, and the old status bar would show up in flashes now and then.
Maybe the stock toolbar isn't that bad...

Yeah.. And even moving to /system/app doesn't make a difference unfortunately. At least when the stock toolbar says 10 notifications, its really 10 notifications. I'm confident some ROM will get something stable going though, just a matter of time.

Is there a way to change the icons that show in the status bar without having to switch to an entire other status bar? I'm referring to the parental controls, wifi and battery icons that appear in the top right corner. I'd like to customize those. Possible?

fastest way to flashlight?

on my previous phone with cm7 i could draw patterns on the lock screen to launch apps/activities.
the only one i had was toggle flashlight.
is there anything similar that can be done with 4.4.3?
if not, any good rom to have that?
thanks

The Xposed module GravityBox allows you to have a quick flashlight shortcut. Once configured correctly, on your lockscreen you can hold down the slide to unlock ring to turn the flashlight on and off.
thanks. i still have to give xposed a try!
this will probably be the tipping point.
edit: after installing everything with flashlight on the name and without internet permission from the market, i finally found this:
https://github.com/theUltimateLabs/theUltimateFlashlight
it allows me to turn it on by pressing power button twice! xposed delayed some more
it's gpl. will recommend to fdroid.

I use "xposed torch" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ma.wanam.torch
and have it set for volume up= volume down=off, I like it because I don't have to turn on the screen to use it or open the flip case I use.
As you guys are talking about flashlight have you guys noticed that the app "Adjustable Torch" doesn't work with Moto X? It was the only torch app I used to use, but it doesn't support Moto X It was the only app which used the flash LED's intensity at it's highest (all other apps use a dim state of LED) and you could even control it! Damn.

i personally only use the dimmest option. some apps have bright mode, always ignored it. dim is already too much

I use touchless control. I say OK Google now, open torch. Torch is a free app that can be set to turn on the light when app is opened.

pull the drop down menu and see if you have the sound toggle button on silent, put it on sound if so.
That fixed it! Thanks!
