(req) power button status bar mod cm10

Hi I was wondering if anyone could make a power button status bar mod similar to the one in dark bean jelly theme for cm10. All input is appreciated thanks

Not sure what you mean.

download notification toggle from the play store.....it's free!! I've been using it for two weeks since AOSP 4.2 is out, but not many rom devs are updating for our device. Since AOSP doesn't come with notification toggles I had to improvise....and this app is a pretty good alternative
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.notificationToggle

Sounds like OP is referring to a button to turn off screen from the status bar when notifications are open. It's separate from the notification widgets and power toggles that have become common.

If you need a button to turn off the screen, notification toggles and power toggles are both good apps to consider. I use the latter. It also has a toggle to display shutdown menu and reboot options, i.e. reboot device or reboot to recovery (for root users only of course)

I'm sure you can just add "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1" in the build.prop to do this?

Then you need to reboot device and if you mess up build.prop permissions you will get boot loop. This app will allow to hide/restore navigation bar on the fly and risk free

I have installed the all bit it isn't work. It Makes another bar on the one present net.

Your device is rooted right? Metallijim in Nexus 4 thread confirmed that it works on Xperia Z and added screenshot too. Did you try version 'without.detection' ?

I have stock rom with root.. I have installed the apk and granted superuser permission but it doesn't work

It works for my phone, it would be perfect if the red trigger line turns transparent. Great works.

It's works but what does "touch" trigger mode?

Works perfect on KA07

the application launched, but in the application when i touch the menu button "...", my phone crash and reboot.

Tried the app on my ZL. The auto-hiding works and the replacement reacts, but it is rather small, like the status bar. Allowing to change the dpi of the replacement would be appreciated.

I released new update and now you can adjust bar size.

The PlayStore says it is not compatible with the Xperia ZL.

I only enable tested devices. Enabled ZL now and it should be available in a few hours, when Play Store update its cache.

Still not available, maybe you have to enable the model c6503?

Thanks alot, this is excellent, going to buy pro if I don't exeperience any weird fc's or other issues

The app works great and I like it!! Only some minor issues:
-When you change to full screen the wallpaper sometimes change to the original (known issue).
-When reboot sometimes the notification bar disappear for a minute or less.
-When you hide soft keys or show soft keys the percent battery on the status bar disappear.
Thank you

These are a bit tricky to fix, but I'm researching it. I hope to improve Quick NavBar enough that you won't need turn on/off stock soft keys often. I added Google Now button in latest dev version release.

Could you add the possibility to change the softkey distance and the possibility to change the softkey's png in the future release?...maybe only for pro. Fantastic work

hide softkeys

Hi android developers, I have my kindle fire hd 7 softkeys hidden using qemu.hw.mainkeys=1. The problem is this gets rid of my app menu icon in the action bar. And lmt launcher's app menu button won't work please help

Update, this is to clarify qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 gets rid of softkeys and gap between keyboard and notification menu but as I said has a glitch with the app menu button not being shone in action bar. How do I force a tablet to show it in action bar or get the app menu button to work on lmt launcher

Wait, are you saying that when you changed that line in the build.prop that you don't have the gap? How is that possible? Send a screenshot please.
As for the menu button, you'll have to lower the density of the device or flash a custom rom.

Go to build.prop and add the code qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 on a new line. Then restart device This is telling the device that you have hard keys. Thus not giving you the gab. The problem is like I said it gets rid of app menu in action bar and lmt launchers app menu sadly didn't work. This is what I'm trying to fix. Own order to mess with build.prop you need to be rooted and have we file explorer installed

Do you have a screenshot to show that you don't have the gap anymore? I'm asking because I tried this method long ago and the gap remained. And yes, I am rooted running a custom rom.
For the menu button, you can lower the density or switch roms to get it back.

Here is the screen shot. As you can see the notification bar is down and there is no gap. As I said before there is still a glitch, there is no way to get into the app menu. Because the lmt launcher app menu button doesn't so you are locked out. That is why I am currently still during the dumb nav bar at the bottom of the screen.

BTW I'm have Kindle Fire HD 7 running version 7.3.1 forked version ICS 4.0.3, Stock amazon os rom with ADW as default launcher, rooted with binary root with restore v31. So with these stats is there a way to fix the app menu problem

Anybody have any ideas

What do you mean lower the density and how do I do that. Is it dangerous
Sent from my KFTT using XDA Premium HD app

Lowering the density is another setting in the build.prop. I don't remember if its dangerous nor not I think it might make some apps display incorrectly if not set right though.

The rom kinology uses a 200 dpi even though I'm on stock rom will that be safest since kinology is basically amazon is with perks. Will it not boot loop my kindle if I set it to 200
Sent from my KFTT using XDA Premium HD app

Idk about boot loops, I haven't ever messed with the density, I think it will just make or screen malfunction, if it malfunctions too bad you'd have to pull the file over adb then push it back after making necessary changes and chmod the permissions back to how they were.

i think im going to wait till they update KF first aide. there going to have an automatic dpi change. there

Changing DPI settings (almost prefect)

OK to start I am not a fan of the stock dpi of any of my phones (I feel they make everything too big).
Coming from a note 3 I pretty much know which apps to keep at stock dpi so the app doesn't break or look weird and found a few more for the note 4. But this time around a few got me scratching my head.
I changed my android system and system ui DPI to 320 using app settings from xposed
Corrected the apps that need to run at 640
Everything's great except
- recent apps when you press the button, dpi stays small.
Anyone have an idea of what apps I might have missed changing back to stock?
made thread for it

I posted this in a different dpi thread, but for the lockscreen, change keyguard back to 640. You'll need to do a full reboot for it to take effect (app settings killing app doesn't work). I also set it to include widgets in the app settings screen but I'm too lazy to check if that's needed or not.
No idea about recent apps.

Odd - I just double checked the settings I have for com.android.keyguard in App Settings and the only changes I made are:
- DPI: 640
- Checked the 'Apply res to widgets' box
It didn't change on killing app but did work after a full reboot. My lockscreen with fingerprint on looks perfect with lcd_density in build.prop set to 480.

I changed the dpi of the phone to 480 and modified the problem apps back to 640. So far everything looks good except the popup for symbols on the keyboard (the window that pops up when you press and hold a key on the keyboard). Keyboard was set to 640. Anyone know what I need to change to correct this?

i missed checking apply res to widgets lol. didnt even notice and have forgotten before without problems.

Thanks, 480 worked for me! I'll probably end up switching to swiftkey in the future, but for now I'm trying to determine how important the floating keyboard is for me

no problem,
its why i kept it in the past put i got over it after i switched but its easy to switch back when you need it. when your in the text field and the keyboard pops up just pull down your notification bar (which i have programmed as a home swipe up) and click 'choose input method' and switch at will. just make sure you have the keyboards in question active.

any updates on the fix for recent apps? everything looks good on my phone at 420 DPI except the recent apps - not sure which app to reset to 640 dpi

How to change the dpi on this device?

How do you change the dpi on this device?
I've tried the minimum width in developer options, but it does nothing with nav bar, quick icons and the home screen generally.
Even tried with arb but still the same result. It's like having an old iPhone with this home screen. It's way to big...
Anyone have a solution for the this?

Switch launchers? I don't believe there is a solution whilst using stock launcher.

I'm using nova launcher and still have the same problem.

In Nova you can adjust the padding width and height and also change the icons size and the whole desktop grid size. What else do you need?

Looks like more an issue with the system size itself, notification tray etc which doesn't seem to resize when choosing a different view size in the settings.

Anyone tried changing the dpi with an app that need root access? I mean root the phone and then change the dpi.

Anyone who can confirm this is a problem on emui 8.0, I didn't have the chance to check it because I just got my phone and updated right away to 8.1

Did anyone try changing the dpi after rooting the phone? With an app maybe that require root access?

Go to devolves options and you can change DPI
Works with all Android

^^ yes. I changed the DPI in developer options. Running 449 and much better than the huge icons and text layout that comes stock.

I did that and it doesn't change the entire system, it only changes the settings and keyboard, not everything.

In Settings, Display, View mode, you can set the slider to 'Small' rather than Default or Large, and that may do what you want.

Was going to buy a p20 pro, but if the smallest width setting is different to stock, then it is now crossed off my list

Can change, but the home screen, most of the apps, quick launch won't change... In my phone all that changes is keyboard "SwiftKey" and settings.. Nothing else...

In display settings the view mode settings changes the dpi. Use a smaller setting to increase dpi and vise versa.

Wow .. that is surprising and very disappointing. I really need 600dp "smallest width" setting to setup my phone. Thanks for replying. Will not be buying a P20 Pro

If you change the view mode you automatically changing the way apps display their content. Larger dpi = smaller content = more things on screen. It's an easy change throught menu.

I need 600dpi to set my phone in tablet mode ... for example, gmail app will display differently and chrome will have small tabs at the top of the windows like on the desktop version. Can this be done with the P20 Pro without rooting?

Is there some way when changing DPI the "notification bar" (on top of the phone) stays intact? Because the Notch is owerlaping the screan. So Notch is in the way.
