OK, so I finally upgraded my Nexus 4 to PA 4 and overall it's cool. I don't like the new Pie controls, mostly because I cannot enter notifications and quick settings from there anymore and they are much less smooth, but no matter, I'll just use the normal immersive mode then.
But there is something strange with that. It works perfectly for almost all apps, but it doesn't for Go Launcher Ex and Go Locker. In these apps even though immersive mode is on, they reserve the space for the navbar, it just sits there idly until I slide up to bring the navbar up. When I choose Pie controls however that space is taken up by these apps. Now this obviously suggests that there is something wrong with these apps, but still the way Pie and not-Pie are realised changes something in the apps' reaction.
Could someone explain that to me, ideally in a way that will allow me to make these two apps take up the whole space?
(Even more awesome would be a way to enable immersive mode with Pie controls only for these two apps)
Thank you very much!
Probably go launcher. But if you press home button after invoking immersive mode it will ask to choose the launcher you want to use ,choose go launcher and you'll not get the space where the softkeys should be.

Thank you very much for your answer!
Yeah, I know there's something with Go Launcher (and Locker), I think they know that there are no hardware keys and reserve the space. They don't when using Pie however, why not is what I'm most interested in.
Also, even after resetting the settings pressing the home button after invoking immersive mode does not ask me for the default Launcher. I have changed default launcher and invoked immersive mode in all possible permutations and the result is the same. Could you tell me why you think that choosing the launcher should override the reserved idle space?
Thank you!

Hmm, It doesn't make a difference for me. I reset all app settings, then invoked immersive mode. It asked me for default launcher, I selected Go Launcher and there is still the empty space. Strange that it works for you but not for me.
I know other launchers are cool as well but I am quite used to Go, and for the lockscreen I haven't found anything that matches Go Locker for what I need/want (multiple widgets on one screen, pretty shortcuts to phone and messages) - in fact I am still using an outdated version of Locker because the new default design stinks, so I suppose whatever is wrong with it will never be fixed for me.
Thank you so much for your patience! Do you have any idea what I am doing wrong so it works for you and not for me?
(btw, in between I updated to PA 4.42 ota, everything smooth as before beside that silly problem that does not really relate to PA)

I did as you told me, still the same result... bummer.
(I have tried with "once" as well as with "always" before, doesn't seem to make a difference.)
(Great, now I have TWO things to worry about: the previous question as to whether it works with Pie but not with "normal", then the question why what works for you doesn't work for me. I'm always trying to learn and keep hitting those dead ends...)
thank you very much anyway!
Still, even if it doesn't work for me, do you know why Go Launcher reacts differently to Pie-Immersive than to Standard-Immersive? That's really bugging me...

Has anyone else tried the ADW Launcher off the Android Market?
It installs alongside the default TouchWiz launcher so you can revert to the default settings if you don't like ADW.
The interface feels a lot smoother with this launcher running.

looks really nice with the custom lauchers enabled....
only thing worrying me about the Galaxy S now is root and bluetooth/emulator incompatibility issues....
also how do you find the battery life with the launcher? heard it drains the battery quite a bit?
i have install the ADW Launcher, so how do i launch it, does the galaxy s do to be rooted?
No root needed to run ADW Launcher.
Next time you press the "Home" key you'll get the choice of completing the action with ADW Launcher or TwLauncher.
Edit: Also trying out LauncherPro beta.
On another forum someone suggested using "Home Switcher" to quickly switch between different launchers - available on the market.
i use LauncherPro beta and works nice on Sgs, and like you say one push on home and you can chose what launcher to go for.

Clear the defaults against adw under settings -> applications then press the home button - it will give you a choice of launchers again. Once back in tw the sammy widgets will appear again.

Does anyone know where I can find the default missing Google widgets?
I didn't find a thread dedicated to customizing your lockscreen, tought it might be a good idea to post a quick how-to in case some people didn't know about this yet. I've gotten a lot of help from this community so I wanted to give something back, even if it's something small
So the Widgetlocker app allows you to modify your lockscreen, you can add app shortcuts, widgets, sliders, actions, change the background and a bunch of other stuff.
1. Download the Widgetlocker app.
2. Open the app, get into the "tool mode" (tutorial has a good explanation on the different modes).
3. Long press on the screen and there you can choose to add a custom slider, application shortcut or widget.
4. For custom sliders chose ICS theme to make it look like stock, then long press and click edit. You can add up to 4 different actions/shortcuts/applications.
Here are some screenshots of mine, nothing fancy, just 2 extra sliders with 4 apps each. Added flashlight and sound toggle to the default slider and weather widget below the clock.

When I was looking at reviews of this app on the Market, I noticed some people complaining on battery drain, have you experienced that, or any other negative side effects of using Widgetlocker?

Haven't experienced any battery drain so far. The app was a bit quirky at first but checking the "Root Helper" option in advanced settings and disabling the default lockscreen helps a lot.
Good info for those who don't know about it, gabster21. As an addition, there's eleventy billion (no, really, there's so many that they had to create a new index on Google Docs) WidgetLocker themes in this thread, with support from the dev here. BTW the dev is the always-awesome and responsive [email protected], who is responsible for Nova Launcher, which even in beta whoops the stock launcher's butt, so if you haven't already, be sure to thank hi as well as gabster21 and zHk3R.

I had a look at those earlier but forgot to add that to the first post.. done it now, thanks!
Another cool feature, useful for advanced users (especially those with root): If you go into WL's settings menu and hold the volume-down button for a couple seconds, you get an additional menu of "experimental" settings. But as the title says, they really are experimental, which means they're unsupported and may not work or even break functionality.
When the ICS slider is at the bottom it expands very small, much smaller than the stock bubble (where the selections sit). But when the slider is moved up from the bottom of the grid it expands all the way, giving a longer travel from the center before a toggle is selected. Does anyone know why this is?
EDIT: I would delete this if I could figure out how. The circle expands less because I had a shortcut on the bottom which would get cut off if it expanded more.
Hello droids
I completely forgot how to customize the maingrid of the app.
In my previous setup i had clock, battery % and (eventually) battery status charging (like gabster21 lockscreen)
I need phosphoreus, but how to config again in this way?
Thanks
Ok for now i solved by an experimental function (hold down volume button in settings menu) but i would know still how i did that customization in the maingrid...

From what I seen else where it's said that the hybrid mode was a hidden option in the original code. however this time around Google removed it apparently. Halo & Pie I am sure will make their way back soon enough I am sure.

This is actually a really big deal. The stock DPI has everything so big and is a waste of this high-res screen. I don't know how anyone is expected to use it in normal DPI after tweaking apps. The problem is that changing the entire system DPI causes problems in some apps with buttons too bunched up and all that.
Also, tabbed browsing by changing the browser (whether AOSP or chrome) to tablet mode makes productivity 100x better.
We NEED hybrid mode. Too bad a developer for my device (t999 d2tmo) stopped doing 4.3 for no reason.
Is there any stable ROM in existence that has a well-functioning hybrid mode for the d2tmo?
Is hybrid settings coming to this device or is it removed forever? Why the removal of the best thing that sets PA apart from everything else?

Obviously you don't read?
Nothing was 'removed'
4.0 is being rewritten from the ground up, and hybrid has not been recoded yet, and will be added when it is completed.
If you want d2tmo, you need to talk to the devs in your device forum to get them to port it.
I was referring to other posts in this thread indicating hybrid mode was gone for good. No need to flame; I'm just praising how critical it really is and I'm surprised other rom makes are okay with simple global DPI rather than complex hybrid which actually should be a standard feature. It's like a car company changing all the fine adjustments to the seat and steering wheel position/angle to just a single adjuster for "size" that moves all the variables at once. Clearly this car wouldn't comfortably fit anyone!
I believe the majority of people haven't experienced the productivity increase that is setting the browser (Whether aosp or chrome) to tablet/phablet mode to enabled visually tabbed browsing. I use my phone as a computer replacement at times for work and with today's mobile processing power, only the UI becomes the limitation to how fast you can handle information. After being exposed to an optimal hybrid mode setup, you really can't turn back without missing it.
I'm not too worried about the Hybrid settings but what about all the other modification settings? Is there none? No color control or any other kind of ROM settings? I'm not complaining, I just haven't used Paranoid in a loooooong time so I was just looking for some help

Color control is dependent on a kernel. The kernel that ships with PA is stock. As for other settings, just read the changelog thread

Hey guys, over on the Post Your Homescreen thread, there are a number of people running stock roms but with a different colour notification shade and no "S Finder" or "Quick Connect" icons. I would love to have that. They say to do that, you'll need Xposed and Wanam but as far as I know, Xposed isn't working for stock Lollipop roms at the moment which is what I'm running. Is there a workaround that I'm not aware of?
Also, how can you change the icon theme on the Edge bar? Thanks a lot for your help!
Don't know about the buttons.
But the icons on the edge follow the touchwiz theme. So if you are rooted, you can use one of the apps to change the touchwiz icons, which then changes them on the edge as well.
If you are using, say Nova, this means you can actually have one icon pack for the homescreen, and one for the edge.
I use Galaxy icon themer, which works fine on Lollipop. There are a couple others, but I think they need xposed, which, as ypu said, is a problem on TW lollipop right now.
What model of Note do u have? if have 915G id recommend Alliance ROM can customize just about everything, or if have 915G or 915F then run Emotion Kernel which after you can install Xposed

Thanks for the tip! I wonder how I never came across them. I do have the 915G so the Alliance ROM sounds perfect. I just have a couple of questions though:
1. They didn't mention anything about the possibility to remove the Quick Connect button in the notifications shade, only the S Finder. Do you know if it's possible?
2. Any known bugs and issues? (since it's in BETA)
3. I've been having this problem "Unfortunately, Package Access Helper has stopped" when trying to install big apps from Humble Bundle or Amazon (under 100MB are always fine though). Others seem to have this problem as well. Do you know if this ROM addresses this issue?
4. If I do a backup of my system settings in my current stock ROM (using Titanium), can I restore them after flashing the new one? It wouldn't create clashes or disrupt anything? This is something I always wondered about flashing new roms.
Thanks again for the help!

Heya,
1. in alliance can only remove both Quick connect and SFinder bar
2. Bugs: lockscreen effect don;t use ink, stick to tiles, the R from the clear button on the drop down menu is missing
3. Not had any issues downloading from Amazon, never tried Humble
4. Settings backup not good idea as Alliance ROM has changed settings options and I have found that generally best to start fresh
Apart from that had no issues myself

haha I see. I guess it'll all become more clear once I flash the ROM! Thanks again!
EDIT: Just spent the whole afternoon on this rom. Can't say I'm a fan. For some reason, I can't change the wallpaper. Even when I switch to Nova launcher and try to change it through there, the wallpaper still won't budge. There are also a lot of inconsistencies. For example, pretty much every theme I tried had some kind of problem with font colour being the same as the background in some menus, making it impossible to read. Usually appeared in the Reboot menu but some themes had it in other places too. Took me ages to finally find the right setting to fix that. Still getting the "unfortunately, package access helper has stopped" when downloading from sources outside of the Play Store with large apps (100MB or more, Amazon or Humble). I also encountered a problem with the sound mode toggle in the notifications shade. After switching the phone to vibrate only, I can't switch it back.
In the end, there just seem to be way too many options for what I need, which would've been fine if it weren't for the fact that it's so hard to find the options that I want. I'm gonna try the emotion kernel now
As far as changing the buttons and icons on the edge goes I just thought I'd throw this out there... I'm not sure about changing the look of the included factory edge panels if that's what you're asking, but there is an awesome app on Play that you can buy (which is a must have app for Note Edge owners imho) called "EdgeNavi Pro".. which let's you put practically whatever buttons you want on the edge and you can also "theme it" to however you like (there's also a free version which is limited but the full version is more than worth it especially with this phone). It doesn't have included "themes" so to speak but you can pick the color of the edge, change the icons of the buttons, pick the transparency, and so on. Anyway just thought I'd mention it because imo it's worth its weight in gold and it actually makes the edge worthwhile and useful finally. Hope it helps and here's a couple of pics just to give you an idea..

The last Magisk module I had that could change the height caused boot loops since 12.1, but even before then messing around with those settings could cause them. Google really doesn't want anyone messing with status bar on this phone apparently.
You can use this Magisk Modul for a rooted phone https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Repo/G-VisualMod . After installation you have to activate the notch killer profile in the systems settings in developer mode section below the DPI setting.
If the app itself doesn't support fullscreen you can install https://github.com/LSPosed/LSPosed with https://repo.xposed.info/module/ru.bluecat.android.xposed.mods.appsettings . Appsettings allows to define the fullscreen mode.
Otherwise you can look for a similar app that supports fullscreen for your intended use.

Is it possible to hide the status bar so an application can fill the entire screen? The terminal commands I used to use on my Pixel 3 XL are no longer working

I wonder if Nova Launcher has gestures to do that. I know that you can with the Dock.

I didn't see any options to hide the status bar in Nova. I am using the free version, though, so my options for gestures are pretty limited

I'm not trying to hide the status bar on my home screen. I'm only trying to hide it in applications that I might have open for long periods of time while reading posts or articles, like the XDA app, Chrome, Reddit, Tapatalk, etc.

It is possible with system ui tuner but the space occupied by the status bar is still unusable by apps. This may be a limitation with having the punch hole because my poco f2pro and oneplus 7 pro both can still go completely immersive on A12 but they are true full screen phones.

Tried system tuner ui by zachary in November when I got the phone and again just now. i'm proficient with adb and did the commands for non root and still not working for me. Works on my Note 20 Ultra on android 12.

Seems to only work on Samsung phones now days. I used either System UI Tuner or just used the ADB commands on my Note 20 Ultra when I had it and any other phone before that and it works on my Z Fold3 and my Galaxy Tab S7 but doesn't work on my Pixel 6 Pro or my OnePlus 9 Pro. I don't know if it's just how Samsung phones are setup or what. I
had read somewhere about it being something Google had removed in Android 11 but it still worked for Samsung devices. Who knows why it works on Samsung devices and not on others.
wews if there is no fix then I have to go back to A11
