Removing S Finder & Quick Connect - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Any way to remove S Finder and Quick Connect from Notification area?
It is taking a lot of real estate for two things I do not use.
The AT&T version does not have them in notification area.
Thanks for any help.

If you're rooted, xPosed has a module to remove them.

Thanks. It looks like G Touchwiz module has not been updated for Note 4.

Root + XPosed + Wanam XPosed. Then you'll be set. You can remove the S Planner and tons of other things that are now working on XPosed.

Is it possible to make this button the menu key again?
If so would any dev be willing to take on the task
I have had my s5 for less than 24 hrs and I have hit it more than a thousand times I never realized how much I used that menu key till now

Read up on rooting with towelroot and installing xposed framework.
Either the wanum or gravitybox module allowed me to remap to the old behavior.
I have already done that with the exception of using kingo root and searched for a mod
Maybe was using wrong keywords

So you got xposed and gravitybox installed ok?
It is in gravity box.
Navigation key actions/recents key/single tap action/...change to show menu.
Gravitybox and wanum xposed have tons of cool tweaks, some don't work on the s5
When I switched the behavior I realised that I have already got used to single tapping for recent apps, now I have to relearn. I'd like to be able to reduce the time a long press takes now.

I don't know what's different for you.
The only thoughts I have are, make sure the module is checked in xposed framework and that you reboot after you have backed out of gravity box's settings.
I also don't know where you found 'settings'
I'm including a screenshot of my gravity box setting.

I set it to launch custom app and set the app to be settings app
Xposed additions is another module specifically for button behavior you might try.

Nexus 6 Toggles

Is it possible to add more toggles to the pulldown panel? I'm looking to add the sound, sync, and NFC toggles.
Not without a custom ROM. ?

Not a feature available in stock or custom ROMs yet. Maybe in custom ROMs in the future.

Going to bump this because I too want an nfc toggle (just started using google wallet, so nifty). But I'm really and I mean really surprised no one talks about this or have even tried to implement custom toggles for the quick settings

Many custom ROMs implemented custom toggles.

If you don't want to change Roms only to do that you can also give XPosed Framework a try. I am running the Alpha 2 version at this moment with the Gravitybox module. Gravitybox is out for Lollipop for a week or 2 now. Just checked for you, I can add NFC, Sync and Volume toggles and lots more.
I use Power Toggles with the added bonus that the toggles are reachable from the lock screen.

I use Xposed Alpha 2 with Gravitybox LP and it works great for what you want.

I'm debating on doing this, but should I still do it or just wait for the 5.1 update then do this mod, because I do actually like staying stock this time around
Waiting ain't no fun

Apart from being being rooted, I have stock.
Updating with official updates is fairly easy, though a bit more work.
It works by downloading the update images from the google nexus website. And following this guide (executing a few commands): http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008
Check under the header 'Method 2 : (Long, but works always)'. Just make sure you skip the step which flashes userdata.img. This will wipe your userdata which you do not want.
Flashing boot.img will make you lose root, but after you can reapply root for that update and it should all still work.
--- UPDATE ---
Nevermind. XPosed doesn't work on 5.1 yet. Developer said it might take some time. See his statement here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59370883&postcount=5
Just do whatever you like.

Xposed modules on G900A_OF2 - 5.0

Xposed g-touchwiz works for me, got rid of the popups. Some parts of gravity box (lp) work. Was able to change battery icon and long back to kill. Torch on gravity box caused errors though, haven't found something for that.

Torch toggle 6.0.1

So I can't seem to find if this has been solved yet.
Trying out Sixperience/Insanity/etc and the torch toggle from S7 SystemUI works fine.
Now running 6.0.1 touchwiz on a G900F (for NFC, Hotspot and fingerprint).
Not an S7/N5 port, etc.
There's no torch toggle in quick settings.
If I use the S7 SystemUI.apk file, torch works fine, but it stops fingerprint working on the lockscreen and affects some other graphics.
So. Does anyone know how to add the torch toggle to the stock 6.0.1 quick settings?
Not an app, not a widget, not a double-click shortcut; integrated like stock.
Cheers
If you install samsungs "Good Lock" it will replace your systemui with one that includes the torch. The apk is linked somewhere in these forums.

I also would like to integrate torch to MM S5. Is it available trough xposed modules?
I tried Good Lock and there is a torch but missing a lot of other toggles. I' like more stock Samsung UI.

Yeah sad but true, I use good lock purely for the torch. Can't live without torch toggle.. All the other improvements I can live without (though i don't miss any of the toggles it lacks)
I try to add data Togle but it imposible. I can't find how to do it with sdlite editor
My torchlight mode in my xposed module is ready.
I just use the Toolbar toggle.
Xposed is great but i would rather use flashable zip if available or manually if there is easy way with tutorial.

You can't.
The settings.db doesn't exist anymore in Android 6.0.1.
The settings are now in this folder as xml file - data/system/users/0/settings_system.xml
Changing this xml manually resets all the device settings and causes a lot of trouble.

Good lock .apk from apkmirror works with MM
Galaxy tools seems to work with MM to add everything except torch. You can edit the toggles, move them around where you want. All toggles work great. I run that with Xposed and Firefds kit. It goes weeks with no abnormal behaviour, but if you reboot those extra toggles are gone again.
I just put my main ones back at the top. WiFi,location,mobile data,sound,bluetooth. Just flip all the tiles down for the rest.
Maybe someone that's had more sleep than me can figure out how to make it stick.

Left & right keyboard controls in nav bar, swipe to adjust brighness

Hello all,
I just upgraded to the Moto g6, coming from the g5 with aokp ROM. My two most used and favorite features are the left and right arrows that appear in the navigation bar while typing, which allow the cursor to be accurately moved (annoyingly janky on the g6), and the ability to slide left or right over the notification bar to adjust the screen brightness without annoying extra swipes.
I was wondering if there is any way to get these two features on the Moto g6, as I have been missing them.
Thank your for your help!

Those were features of the custom ROM you were using. Not the device itself.
That said, I enabled those features on mine with an Xposed module. Gravitybox. Works great. But, using Xposed, safetynet will fail. But if that's not an issue for you, Xposed is the way to go.
Magisk for root
Xposed for magisk (in magisk repo)

I had asked about installing modules, but using the Xposed unity installer in magisk seemed to be what worked. somehow ended up with a very old clunky version of the app, which was not detecting that Xposed was installed. I'm all set to go, thanks again!

Great to hear. I use those features as well. Especially the arrows in nav bar for the cursor.
