Cyanogenmod 10.1 quick settings panel - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys, I'm having a little problem with Cyanogenmod. Even though it's not an important one, it just bothers me.
I can't access thes quick setting panel from the notifications, because it disappears. Sometimes it just goes a little to the right. It's much clearer in the screenshots. Any tips? I've already wiped, an installed again 3 times. It doesn't happen with AOKP or any other rom, just cm. Help plz! Thank you

Seems it is shifted out of screen by "a. m." letters, switch to 24h clock to see if it's really the reason. You can also toggle between notification and panels by swiping left/right on the grey bar under your carrier name (the bar that turns blue when you drag and open notification area).

Hey you're right, it was that. I changed it to 24h clock and it works fine. But, isn't that a bug?

You can hit Thanks then
It's a very minor bug in XML file, you can write about this in ROM's thread so it's developer is aware of it.
Or decompile framework and try to fix it yourself, good start if you want to learn Android modding.

That sounds quite a challenge! Well, I'll post it in the ROM's thread. Thank you!

Why don't people describe the problem?
I've done it with my rom, what's the problem, what are you doing and what are you observing?

The problem is nothing is changing. I metamorphed the system.apk.
Hi there. I understand your frustration with this, as I ran into this the first time I ported my theme to a Gingerbread rom. 90% of the status bar and pull down notification bar icons are handled in a differently way with 2.3. You'll find these in the SystemUI.apk. Res / drawable hdpi. While at first these seems crazy, it does offer some other bonuses, like being able to change the clock, data, and Clear button text colors via an XML in there as opposed to having to mess with the services.jar. Anyway, hope this helps.

JB 4.2 quick setting on 4.1.2

Hey,
I don't really need a lot of the features in 4.2 that much, but I'd like the quick setting thing. Can someone port that to 4.1.2?
Or even easier, can someone explain how I can build JUST the SystemUI apk from the android repo, and not the whole thing, so I can try to do that myself?
Thanks
There are so many good toggles apps out there (that is if you're not using a custom rom that already has it built in).
why would you like an extra page with settings that arent even quick ...they are just shortcuts ...
sure i tested knzo's and thedarkdude's 4.2 port and the page turn effect is eye catchy... but i see no meaning to it per all.
Ps: iamthedarkone is his name . A am aware of that .

I like the look of the quick "settings" thing on 4.2. Also, if I knew how to build just the SystemUI, maybe I'd be able to make them actual quick setting, instead of what they are now. I do have notification toggles through an app, but I'm not really fond of having a used notification spot just for that. that's why I'd rather have the 4.2 thing.

thanks, but that still requires a notification spot, and it feels as bit sluggish. I currently use Power Toggles.

Good mornung sir. If you are feeling limber and wanting to program. There is a stock guide to porting 4,2 quick settings panel by bootmgr and spacecaker its pretty easy. I am currently porting it over along with lidroid toggles. The only thing is you gotta add your own toggles

[THEME] [APPS] [IZS] Black&White IZS - Updated for IZSv2 - (30/08/2013)

Black&White IZS Theme
Whats been modded:
SystemUI.apk
framework-res.apk
lge-res.apk
LGSettings3_1.apk
LGContacts3.apk
LGBrowser.apk
Screenshots:
Uploading
Recommended Settings:
Under Settings/Screen ---> Change font to HYSerif. If you have difficulties to read the texts, increase the font size to "Large".
Under Power Saving Options ---> I recommend to enable show the remaining battery percentage (the one that shows the number aside the icon) and disable the battery level label on top of the icon. However, you can now choose the second option too since I modified the color to be black (over white icon).

there's no way to revert all if i don't like it?
anyway, thanks for your great job!
The theme is great! But I've found a little bug. When I enter the PIN number, but "*" are white, can you make the background black?
Suggestions:
In the wifi menu (just for an example), the buttons in the bottom (to search wifi) are hard to read;
Colorful icons;
When selecting a menu, the selection bar before entering the menu is to bright;
The little arrows in the network bar (when mobile data is active), they are hard to read, it should be another color

By the way, I know the theme is "black&white", but it would be nice to have one with some color, some life. Just like samsung galaxy, or something... Now I think it is to0 plain...
Launcher
which launcher were you using when you took the screenshots?
And which is that power widget you're using?
And thanks, the theme looks very nice!

Can you fix the text color in url textbox in web browser? Now it is dark grey on black background. Thanks!
Yeh I noticed that too =)
Will try to fix it asap. And now that I have to look into the browser, I may theme it too. =)
Edit: by the way, I already fixed the signal arrows on top of wifi/signal icons. Now its holo blue with black shadow.
And also fixed the color of the borderless bottom buttons in some setting screens (like WiFi and Sync) to a darker color. Now the text is completly readable.
Edit2: now you can also select the battery percentage to be on top of the icon. I changed the percentage to be black instead of white so its readable.
Edit3: fixed black on black text on LGBrowser URL box.
New version up.
Solved most of the bugs above mentioned.
Redesigned contact default pictures.
Hope you like the new settings/dialer background. I think its dark enough to read everything. However if someone feels its too much annoying, dont hesitate to say it. I might change the background in the coming days.

Another suggestions
1 - The background should be more subtle. In the definitions, with the letters, some parts are a little hard to read...
2 - The active options (that have a "V"), the background is black and the "V" is blue, like the default. But in comparison to the options that aren't active, with the white background, it stands out more the non active option than the active options. I think the background should be switched.
3 - In the notifications bar, when in notifications, the background in the left square (that have the icon), are too bright, the background should be more black, if not really black.
4 - When selection of a menu, right before entering the menu, the color of the selection is a little too bright.
5 - Colorful icons
A last suggestion, at least for me, it would be nice to have a theme Black&Blue. It gave more life to the phone.
Overall, that is a great work!
Thanks for new version
Arrows on wifi and signal indicators are ok, percentage on battery indicator too.. But I don't like the background of dialer, settings menu etc., maybe only black color is better..

I fixed the PIN lock screen issue. It was pretty easy to find the value which stands for the text color.
But, before I upload the last version with the fixes. I also wanted to change the settings header (top grey bar with the settings default icon and "Settings" text) but wtf I keep looking for it and I dont seem to find it. Now Im lost, not sure if its gonna be an xml hex color code, or a small png somewhere under the drawables.
If someone has any idea about where could it be, I'd appretiate the help =)

[Q] Overlapping text and icons in status bar solutions?

Hey guys. So one problem I've been trying to find a solution for is I like allot of information in my status bar but I have so much in it I keep running into the issue of the text and icons overlapping. For example when I use Wanams setting to center the clock allot of things overlap or when I try to add more and nothings overlapping it whatever is on the right side just runs off the screen. Is there a way to create maybe a marquee style where I could add as much I wanted and just have anything that runs off the screen in the status bar constantly scroll across? Currently running Firekat v6.
First possible solution listed here by another member, didn't work though, fishing for more ideas...

Bro I thing your font just sux... change the font or the size of it. See attachment.
Yeah man I know it is a little on the bold side but I kinda like it, other than changing the font I'm thinking there's gotta be another way because no matter what the font someone could have too much up there and be facing the same situation....

Hmm, well just noticing how when the network speed indicator changes everything to the right of it expands to the right and the contracts back, wondering if that could placed on the left and tweaked to pull everything on the right smoothly to the left, then repeat... Not trying to kang though
Lol like pac man in your status bar? That's a fun idea

Status Bar icons merging into a dot, how to fix?

I have several status bar icons (not notifcation icons) that I want always visible, but after a couple, they just turn into one dot and I cant see them unless I swipe down the notification bar. Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this? I'm rooted on LineageOS with Magisk 22.1, but had the same problem on stock. Thanks

I've never seen that. Can you give a screenshot of just before it changes and after?
The dot appears when you have enough notification icons, that can't be all shown at the same time, kinda like a "there's more" indicator.
Sadly the space for notifications is limited to just a few. No way to fix that afaik.

This will install an app called "Rom Control". Swipe from left to open menu, go to "Miscellaneous" and there is an option called "Show more notification icons". I haven't tried it but this may be what you're looking for.
You guys, he said statusbar icons, not notification icons. To me that means the system icons on the right side.

Yes exactly, I tried that recommendation and it not only didn't work, but after a while it stopped showing my lte signal and moved battery percent to left of battery instead of where I had it on the right, like it randomly switched to demo mode.
I'm fine with the notification icons merging, but not my system icons.

Rom control is for stock, I believe.
I've never seen that many system icons. I might be able to help but I don't know I could even manage to get too many. How many icons before it goes to a dot? 6, 7?
Can you give me a screenshot?

Do you really need all of those system icons? If not, there's an app that you can use to remove some of them with.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zacharee1.systemuituner
I use it to hide the headphones icon (I can see the wire coming out of my phone I'm looking at it right now and I can hear the music coming from it) and also the alarm clock icon that is there even on weekends when I don't have alarms set. I know I have 3 alarms set for weekdays. I've had them for years. I don't need you to remind me.

There's probably no way to do it.
Let the notifications fill until you get a dot there.
