Hi,
So over time, I got used to how quick settings work on the N7, but when I got my Nexus 4 I started to think how much better it might be if it worked the same on the Nexus 7. As in, notification panel appears in the center, and a 2 finger swipe or tap of the icon switches to quick settings.
Is there a mod available to enable this behavior? Or does anyone know how? I guess it's not as simple as changing an option on SystemUI?
I've searched around but come up with nothing useful, so if anyone has any ideas that'd be amazing
Cheers.

I had seen a friends Samsung Vibrant and he showed me how you can actually raise and lower the brightness settings of the phone by holding your finger on the status bar for a second and then swiping either left or right on it to adjust the brightness levels.
Just a cool feature if anybody is interested in investigating it.
Thanks,

I've seen this in action and it's pretty cool. Wonder if it's hiding in an .apk somewhere....
As far as I know, its in the framework Part and @kmobs tried it but needs help with the linear layout ...
Any application?
Is there any application with this feature? To change screen brightness INTO the status bar.
Any one can create such application?

You could
There are ROMs with brightness controls in the notifications.. Open Notification bar, tap the icon.. Has various options from Auto/30/100 all the way up to like 5 or so options. I tend to leave mine on Auto except when I'm using the phone as a car GPS in which case I need it brighter, and I let Tasker do that for me.
I used autoneuter and am running zeam launcher. I was pretty pissed the ipad had a switch for disabling screen rotation ( not anymore apparently) and wished there was some way to do it on my nook when laying down in bed reading.
I was messing with the screen and i found out touching the wifi/battery/clock area at the bottom right of the screen opens up Quick settings which has "wifi, mute, oreitnation, and brightness"!
I may be really slow but I was SUPER happy about this and wanted to share incase anyone else missed it.
I am not sure if this is part of autoneuter, zeam, or softkeys ( installed by autoneuter) but thought I'd share for those of you who don't know about it.
It's part of the stock B&N software.

As stated above its part of the B&N framework. Its actually a great setup except for its location. I love the notifications being a popup instead of a drag down.
BTW, there's a bunch of ways to get this same setting. In fact Extended Controls Widget has an orientation lock toggle that will handle that in one click if you want.
I can't find extended controls in the market... i've been using it on my Aria and wanted to use it for my nook too...?

was closing something on my phone and hand slid in some direction and not sure how in the world but the brightness slider is gone from my choices in the notification panel.
No idea how to get it back. Feel STOOOOPID

Just slide that area down and it will show.
It's just like one of the expansive notifications. If you slide your finger down the notification toggles area it show. And if you slide your finger up that area it should hide it.

It's not the case for me. Not working I've tried swiping in every direction. I do have Wanam installed with a couple of tweaks. Hopefully that's not the reason it's not working because I can't do without Wanam.
Hi all, I can help you !
GS5 user here, soon to be Note 4 - but I just tested this out on mine and got it to work.
To add/remove the brightness adjustment, drag the notification screen down, touch the upper right icon that looks like 4 boxes, touch the little pen icon to Edit your menu and check/uncheck the Brightness adjustment option.

That option does not exist on the Note 4. G5, yes, Note 4, no.

happened to me during the 1st day when I was playing around with everything, I do believe it happened when I hit the ultra powersaving mode option, then after disabling that feature, I think it came back after a restart,
I wish mine was gone!
I know this thread is long dead, but I had the same issue and found a solution. First, the slider had only disappeared when I was on manual brightness. As soon as I turned on manual from the notification panel, it disappeared. Here's the voodoo I found in desperation that got it to work.
With auto-brightness already on (and in the notification panel) Go to Settings>Display>Brightness and move the slider (do not click the uncheck). Drop the panel down, and it should now be there and you can check and uncheck without it disappearing. Some dumb glitch, and simply turning auto-brightness back on the settings panel would only bring it back until I switched off auto-brightness.
Hey all,
having been used to custom roms (slimkat) on my old phone, I got used to certain features. One of them was choosing which tiles appear in the quick settings pull screen. Is there any way to do that on the Droid Turbo without root/xposed? Would love screen rotation to be available. Thanks.
This was one of the very first things I tried to do with this phone. Unfortunately from my experience I have not found any options to change anything about the pull down menu.

You need root to directly change the quick tiles.
As a workaround, I use the app "power toggles" which puts a custom bar in the dropdown menu that can be configured (I too need to be able to change screen rotation quickly).
I think Lollipop has a shortcut in the dropdown!

power toggles = awesome, thank you!!
Themer allows customized toggles on the drop down. And fully supports the droid turbo.

I would love to know as well as this is typically a root deal. I have survived with zooper, widgetsoid and popup to create the toggle panel in the center that pops up when I press the gears toggle button. Easier than pulling down panel and then pressing the tiles button to show all tiles that does not include all the toggles I use.
Under the General tab in the Themer options, you will see a selection for Notification Toolbar. Select this. Use your standard launcher and viola! Customizable? toolbar on the drop down, including a flashlight!

Iade a mistake, I thought you could edit the toolbar but it seems like you can't it has virtually no different toggles. My bad

Bummer I was going to look into that. With the bigger screens nowadays I prefer a ribbon in the notification area so I can just scroll over to the less used tiles when needed but I've found no option for enabling that in xposed or via the market.

Well you can do that with power toggles or notification toggle. Play store apps
I have power toggles and have set a bar in the notification area but I don't see any option to make it into a ribbon, where is the setting for this?
Power toggles is amazing. It also allows access to volume sliders. IDK why android doesn't allow the volume buttons to open all the volume sliders. :\
Hey guys
Today I updated to Android 9. Nothing to complain except this 1 annoying button.
This 1 forces the phone into the landscape mode and I can't find the setting to disable it.
There is also no way to drag of somewhere else. Also no notification or similar
Any suggestions?
It's because you have gestures enabled. There's no way to disable it afaik.
Button is nothing but annoying

I also have this button and it's beyond annoying and covers up part of my keyboard. There's got to be a way or an app that gets rid of this thing for those of us who don't want it.
