Settings icon missing from notification bar - Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hi all, i flashed the zip found in this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2283514 to remove the dual sim icons. After flashing, i realised that the settings shortcut icon had been replaced with the recent apps icon. I then flashed the stock ui with dual sim icons which is also found in the thread. I have the dual sim icons back, but the recent apps icon is still there.
Can anyone pls help? A flashable zip to re-enable the settings shortcut will be great.

It happen another member too(read further in the same thread )
It's due to dpi change ... you have to re-flash rom in order to fix it
Create a backup of apps (user apps only ) using Titanium backup , re-flash your Rom, then restore....
Always do a backup of system apps ( specially system UI ) before trying these modes ... so you can restore whenever you need...
Hope it helps...

You can't directly install it as an ordinary apk(since you are currently using it all the time).... you can either restore cwm backup or a titanium backup

Trouble with titanium backup

I have rooted with paranoid android 2.57 utacka, and when ever I take a backup of my apps in titanium backup..... Nothing will be shown in restore menu..... So my first rooting went tragic..... I need help... So that next time I change my rom, all my backup are restored.

can you attach screenshot of backup/Restore page of titanium backup?
and have you check size of titanium backup folder?
Sir I also had taken a backup from Cwm recovery mode however as soon as I went to paranoid the restoration process showed no files present there.

You don't have any backup on device
Have you wiped device?
I think you have lost all backup when you have factory reset
It is advisable to make backup storage on ext sd card

Go to preference and then go backup location. Then click on detect and search whole device. Once located just Click on it and it will show up on the restore menu.. If you backed up on your external memory or internal memory without formatting it during the installation then it should be there.

Make sure again ur preferred install location is ext sd card...Try formatting the card ..Still doesnt work try with a different memory card..May be the sd card is corrupted..
On formating it will work but some of them say that main cause is rooting...

Not because of rooting. Of-course, this can be resolved only by root option. The same problem happened to me 2 or 3 times while i install it manually from SD-card (App downloaded from other website and not from playstore).
Follow steps for installing manually from SD-card
You need
ES File Explorer
Rooted Phone
First Open ES File Explorer
On the left Tab you will see Tools
Click Root Explorer
Click One Key Install
Navigate to location of the APK file
Just click the file
***Grant permission from Super User ****
This worked for me. If it works for you too. Press Thanks :fingers-crossed:​

You need to change the backup location in the TiBu settings so it can see the old ones.
Since 4.3 I haven't been able to use Titanium, mainly because I've been too lazy to look up how lol.

To make the backup work, Follow these steps:
1)Open your backup folder.
2)Go to the nandroid.md5 and open it using any text editor on your phone.
3)Delete all the lines from starting to the end.
4)Now save and close the file.
5)Now try restoring your backup using CWM!
Voila, now your backup will work.It worked for me.
This happened to me a few months ago and I followed someone's guide and my backup worked!!!
Tell me if there is any problem.

To make that backup work do not to add spaces and/or special characters. If you have added spaces and/or any special characters, the backup will not work thereafter,no matter how much you try to fix it.
It is not necessary to flash old CWM to restore the backup of 4.2.2.
If you hav not changed the folder name of the backup and still get the md5 error, then you should follow the editing and deleting steps.

Nandroid Restore Problem Challenge

Hi all, just have a quick question regarding my nandroid backup and restore. Every time I try to restore a nandroid backup of my phone, mostly everything works, however, Amazon App Store will stop allowing me to download any apps at all saying that there is a problem with the connection to the internet error (with 3g or wifi) and my swiftkey will popup in the notification drawer saying that there aren't anymore language packs and when trying to install the language packs back on, they don't download. either. WEIRD thing is, the Play Store still works properly. Only those two apps have issues. Any idea what is wrong with my nandroid backup or restore?
Phone Config:
Galaxy S 4 M919V (Wind Mobile)
Wind Stock 4.4.2 VLUFNB5 Factory Image/Kernel
Rooted with CF-Auto-Root-jfltetmo-jfltetmo-sghm919.tar
Recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-jfltecan
Knox counter tripped 0x1
Anyone see a problem with my config?
Troubleshooting done already
Changed recovery to philz_touch_6.26.6-jflte.tar, tried backup and restore... SAME problem.
Tried Uninstalling and Re-installing apps (with TiBu and Settings App Manager)... still same problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Try wiping delvik and cache in recovery then reboot. Or you can also try to clear data and cache in those 2 apps and reboot.

Could it be possible that my recoveries aren't completely compatible with my stock firmware? Possibly, a bad flash of recovery? or could it be that the bootloader is screwing something up since the knox bit is tripped? Even when trying to use skipsoft unified android toolkit for my s4, there are backup options that are disabled...
I'd like to get to the bottom of this because not having a proper backup of my system is kicking my ocd's a$$
Try flashing to completely stock and start over

Also attempted that and the same issue. Another thing is, Swiftkey is the actual paid version from app store, so the possibility of having a corrupt apk is slim to none.
Could it possibly be a problem with those specific apps (swiftkey and amazon app store) in which they dont nandroid backup properly or with these custom recoveries that dont backup everything needed for those 2 apps?

I was just thinking...When you changed from TWRP to Philz, did you use Philz to recover your TWRP backup? From my understanding it isnt possible to use a different recovery to restore a backup.

Try deleting your google account and re-installing it.
system/accounts/google tap on your account and remove it.
turn off and do a bat pull
wait abt a min and power up and go to the google account and install selecting existing account and see if the play store will work for you.
good Luck!

If you changed to Philz while you were already having the issue with the apps and turned around and made a backup, that backup would still have the issues. Lol. Try deleting the apk files and re download the apk

Well, I ended up finding that CWM_6.0.4.7_Touch_GT-I9505 worked out for me using i9505 AOSP Pre-Release from Broodplank. No problems with backup or restore most of the time. I did encounter Swiftkey having the no languages installed problem, but it manages to install the languages again without error, so all is good.
