[Q] Notifications Pulldown Menu no longer working - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hi, I'm running LiquidSmooth 4.2.2 and this morning I was messing around using the navigation tools rather than hardware keys and after I disabled the navigation tools I could no longer pulldown notifications and my status bar no longer appears at the top of my screen. I have rebooted my phone, restarted my launcher, tried to disable then enable the status bar and pulldown bar but unfortunately nothing has worked. Has anyone else encountered this and know how to fix this? Thank you.

Once the system framework gets messed up like this, I've always had to re-install my ROM.
Just wipe cache & dalvik, nothing else.
All your data & apps & settings should remain the same after the re-flash.

Before you go wild re flashing stuff hold down your power button til the menu pops up and see if expanded desktop is active. That's your problem if I remember correctly how the newer navigation tools work.

Go into settings lock screen settings and toggle the hide battery icon then it should come back

Im pretty sure the modem would have absolutely nothing to do with the status bar icons lmfao..... this happened to me when I used maddogin's 8 lockscreen mod and after I rotated the phone a few times the battery icon popped up and I haven't had an issue since.....

Browser brightness

So anytime I open my browser it automatically darkens. I hit the home button and it brightens back right before it goes to the home screen. How the f do I change this? Is really getting on my nerves.
Stock Rom by the way.

Its in browser settings. Uses its own brightness controls

Same.
I have the same problem. But I can't find the browser's brightness settings.
I had it before the software update, but it is gone after the update. Don't know what's up with that.

After the latest OTA update the browser uses the same brightness as the rest of the system. You can control it from the status bar.
I have the latest update but don't see how to change the browser brightness setting without it changing the system brightness. Is there way to fix this? Thanks

To the people with screens flickering, do you have navigation bar enabled?

So i have noticed this before, but then forgot about it. But everytime i would access the xda app on my phone, it would flicker like crazy!!! So today i went into my settings disabled the navigation bar and boom, the flicker is gone. Can anyone else try this?
Yes i have done a clean install and problem persisted, even with the min cpu bumped up. Maybe theres something with the screen being compressed due to the navigation bar being added.
Moved to Q&A
I've had flickering on aokp and miui without the nav bar

I have had zero flicker since disabling the nav bar, but once I enable it, the flicker comes back!!

This needed its own thread why? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846416
And it happens on roms that don't even have the navbar as an option. I like that you're trying to help, but unfortunately the post is a fail.

Notification Bar Disappeared

Hey guys, been running ParanoidKANGdroid 1.40 for a few days, loving it. I don't have a clue what I did but at some point today my notification bar disappeared for everything BUT the lock screen. It shows up normal, I can even open it up while the phone is locked, but as soon as i unlock its just gone and I cannot figure out how to reenable in my options. Bar is gone on all launchers so its a system issue, not launcher
I'm running paranoidKangdroid 1.40 too. I try holding the power button and select expanded desktop disabled.

Missing icons

Has anyone had any instances where your phone is restarted and once it's finished you notice any missing icons? It does it to me all the time and idk what it could be. Any ideas?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using XDA Free mobile app
it would be helpful if you told us:
-which icons?
-from where? (homescreen? app drawer?)
-is it always the same icons?
i've never seen this on mine
its a touchwiz problem ..... gotta erase data on touchwiz and restart it
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using XDA Free mobile app
I've had this happen on a couple of occasions. Various icons on home screens and app drawer disappear but their titles remain. If you select the missing icon area the app still opens. I have an application, System Panel Task Manager, I use for system monitoring, app backup, etc. I just hit "end all" in the task manager which restarts TouchWiz and the icons are back. I didn't have to erase data to get the icons back. (Wouldn't want to set up my home screens again) Not sure why they disappeared, but it hasn't happened again in a while.

I don't know if this is the same thing but I having a similar problem I am on T-Mobile and I am rooted and I thought root was causing this or the stock ROM I was on
but I would reboot the phone with an app like Quick Boot or C Boot (I think it was called) and all my apps would be out of their folders but the folders still remained
But if I rebooted by the device power menu the apps will stay in their folder
So like now if I wanna get to recovery from an app I would make sure to “save” my setup with the device menu first then reboot with an app...

I'll try this because it's happened to me numerous times and I have to restart the phone. Thanks for the help sir!

Yea happened to me too. A few times an icon will not show up like in TouchWiz. Doesn't happen if I use another launcher. So like someone suggested restarting TouchWiz usually fixes it.

Yep. Happened to me once. Reboot didn't fix it. I ended up going into recovery and wiping the cache to fix it.
