Is there any place to change what options are on the Power Control widget? I've found settings to be kind of a pain on this phone so far...
I was having problems setting up Google Voice to control my voice messages. I kept getting "network is not currently supported for automatic set up". All I wanted to do is find where in the settings menu the Voicemail setting was...Why did they hide it in with the "Phone" app rather then in the actual phone settings menu? Took so long to figure that one out lol...
Yeah moving the voicemail was kind of silly. You can customize whats on the power widget by using a app named Widgetsoid.

No really, not a different customizable widget...
Is there a way to change the settings on an already configured Power control widget?
I used to go about adding a new widget and deleting the old one, but that gets tedious.
I thought I found the existing widget settings somewhere when I updated to cm7.2 but now I cannot for the life of me find it ANYWHERE
I just want to choose different brightness toggles, but I do not want to go through all of the data / wifi / sync combos again...

I'm on Verizon and it doesn't support automated setup but when I clicked the help it told me to dial *something and that fixed it right up.

Just use something like widgetsoid. The stock Power Control widget has its 5 toggles and can't be changed.
Answered my question!

Thank you for the answer to my question.. I wish the setting could be changed so you didn't have to install another widget control bar.
Question #2: Is it safe to remove the Original Power Control widget .apk so I can get rid of unused apps?
Thanks!

I have a stock Galaxy Nexus running stock Jelly Bean. No root, no unlocked bootloader or anything.
This morning, I accidentally selected 'Always' when choosing a ringtone selector from the stock Contacts application (menu button|select ringtone).
The normal 'Complete Action Using' dialog came up and I inadvertently set the media selector as the default.
Now my phone always defaults to that ringtone selector whenever I try to choose a ringtone for any contact.
I want to reset this preference/option, but I do cannot find any way to do it. Going into settings does not seem to help because:
1. I do not know which app holds the setting for the ringtone selector
2. All of the "Clear Defaults" buttons are grayed out on every app i try to manage.
Is this a bug? This seems like a really stupid thing for Google to overlook. I am hoping that someone can tell me how to fix this without having to do a factory reset
Thanks

Go to the Apps, select your application and clear defaults.

The clear all defaults button is just for that app, as an app can be the default for multiple ones.
I think you are just going to have to manually go through everything manually to find what is taking the default, though a safe bet would be to check anything with the word media in it.
The defaults system could do with some tweaks in this regard.. but there doesn't seem to be a way to reset them all without factory resetting

I guess maybe I wasn't clear in my original post....
I cannot click/press "Clear Defaults" for *any* of my apps. The clear defaults button is grayed out on every single app.
I can Force stop app and clear cache, but do not have an option to clear defaults.
I doubt this will work for 4.1, but it's what I found upon Googling:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.tostada.android.ClearDefault&hl=en
Might be worth checking out before factory resetting.

The app you listed didn't help, but there was another related app linked from yours that did help.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.tostada.android.ClearDefault&hl=en
This app lists phone apps whose 'defaults' have been changed. The app that came up (Media Storage:RINGTONE) was listed under settings, but I was not able to clear the default through that interface (bug?)
Thanks for the assist.
Uninstall and install again the app u want to use to manage ringtones selector

There is also a setting built into JB that let's you reset app defaults in the settings...not sure if this will work for you based on the above.

On Android 4.2.1, I was able to clear this by clearing defaults in Media Storage app. Hope this helps. : )
Did you only look through your apps in the "Downloaded" column? Perhaps you should try "All" if you haven't yet.
my wife made the same mistake this morning, and I was able to reset the sound picker by using the clear defaults option in the zedge app.

I did the same thing earlier today, and I found a solution. It may not work for everybody but I was able to fix this without having to do a factory reset. The app that took over the handling was ES File Explorer. I uninstalled that app and poof it worked. I reinstalled ES again after that, and it brought up the option to select again.
:good:
media storage works !! had the same issue jb 4.1 :laugh:
absolutely same situation. this helped me:
settings -> apps -> all -> media storage -> clear defaults.
Thanks for the suggestions

Reset defaults
Resetting defaults is the way to go. However, in this case, you want to reset defaults of the app which selects the ringtones, not the app FOR which you want to change the ringtone.
When you check the application manager, go to the ALL tab (by default, you see an overview of downloaded apps). Then select "Media Storage" and clear its defaults.

DUDE! this works on lollipop too.
i accidentally chose ES FileExplorer as the default ringtone chooser and this fixed it. THANK YOU!
I recently updated my ROM version to the latest version, and suddenly realize that the settings/options icon is missing in several applications. In Google Chrome, for example, the options button (with the three dots) next to the tabs icon is missing. The softkey options button in Gmail and almost every other app is also missing.
I found a thread on Google Product Forums describing this problem I'm having, except it was for a phone with a hardware options button. Therefore, does my phone maybe think that it has hardware buttons, for some reason? And how do I get it back?

There should be an option in your settings somewhere saying something like menu-UI overflow, or something along those lines.

Thank you, that solved it! I found it was an AOKP setting, and it was under Settings -> ROM Control -> General UI -> Show Menu UI Overflow.
9.1.3 seems to pretty flawless so far. But there is one issue. Most apps don't get lock-screen notifications. Does anybody else have this issue too?
You can test this with the open source app (no ads) Radiodroid2. It is not possible to get a lock-screen notification for that app, despite tweaking all kind of settings. But it works fine on Nokia, Motorola, Nexus, Pixel devices for example.

Just to make sure this is not a config issue ... I wiped my device and reinstalled everything:
- Reset to China beta 8.12.27
- Flashed TWRP
- Wiped data, dalvik, and cache
- Flashed eu 9.1.3
- Flashed Magisk
check advanced setting in lock screen settings for on lock screen setting and notification settings per app like screenshot.

Thank you. I actually had tried that, but it only works for some applications (the minority unfortunately).
Could you please try the app RadioDroid 2?

(It is an open source radio app without ads ....)
I should be able to pause music on the lockscreen (like on all the other phones before), but I am not able to figure it out.
I hope you can do it.
Youre right. You have to go to the app's notification settings, then disable and again enable "Show notifications"... Every Time when you start the app..

Thanks for confirming this bug!
The always on display only shows a notification for one app, even though I have 4 others checked in the AOD settings. And the battery optimization is preventing notifications for at least 5 of my apps even though I changed the battery settings and also used ADB to get rid of com.vivo.pem and other stuff that supposedly caused this.
Anyone have any solutions to these? I have the global version
My notifications work well.
Settings -battery-power consumption - unresctrict them
Also info the individual apps and remove the battery optimization.
Hope that helps.
TS, did the advise work for you ???
You dont need to get rid of any of these apps:
I am using Origin OS and this is how the notification works:
Setting -> Apps & Permissions -> Permission Management -> Permission -> Choose Permission i.e. Autostart (needed for whatsapp/gmail/insta etc) go thru list and select apps -> follow with "Display on lock screen" and so on.
Worked like a charm here for me.
