I would like to entirely remove the quick settings tiles in my Notification Shade, on my TMobile Galaxy S3 (SGHT999). I am running 4.3 stock rom (I highly prefer TW framework because I utilize some Samsung apps[New Boootloader!]) My device is rooted and has SuperSu Pro installed. I also have Xposed Framework installed, I have seen quite a few modules for other devices to do exactly what I've been hoping to succeed, but none for my device or compatible with my device. I can delete all the icons but am then stuck with an empty void and edit button. I'm looking to abolish the entire quick settings toggles as an option within my Notification pull down shade. I've been searching for days and cannot find a functioning solution, any help would be extremely appreciate. My apologies if this has been addressed somewhere and I overlooked it. I did not want to resort to making new thread but did what I could before making one.
Having come from a long line of Samsung devices previously, I'm used to having a QuickSettings bar along the top of my notification tray, rather than having to hit the QuickSettings button to flip over to a big list of options.
I'm curious if there's a way to add this functionality to a Moto G (XT1031 Boost Mobile CDMA variant on 4.4.4).
I have full root and Xposed Framework installed and working. I know there's a handful of apps out there that claim to add a QuickSettings bar, but it appears all they actually do is add a persistent notification with buttons and set it to a high priority so it usually appears at the top of the notification tray. However, these can be accidently dismissed by other means, and it's a pain to try to get them to come back without rebooting sometimes.
I'm looking to see if there's a simple way to tweak my rom to make the buttons from QuickSettings appear at the top of the notification tray. I used GravityBox KK to make the QuickSettings tiles small enough to fit five across each row, which would be ideal if I can get the first row to appear at the top of the Notification tray, with the ability to expand to show the rest of the tiles, similar to Samsung TouchWiz roms on the Galaxy S4/S5/Note 3 JB/KK systems.
My current ROM and system info:
Android Version: 4.4.4 (Stock Moto G, Deodexed, non-GPE)
Device: "Falcon CDMA" XT1031 Boost Mobile variant
Bootloader Unlocked with PhilZ Touch 6.58.7/CWM 6.0.5.1 Recovery, Root with SuperSU, Xposed Framework, GravityBox KK
You'd better try Power Toggles app. It was fantastic, when I was on 4.4.x
Good old times
Tried a handful all resulted in freezing at Samsung logo
Love this Rom as is but... We aren't "as is" people here
I hope someone can answer that as I want it too

You are the man. Flawless. Thank you davnav
Running
Xposed torch(like being able to activate flashlight by holding volume up button... Must open the app first to set permissions for camera)
Firekitfds (moved status bar clock to center,disabled Low Battery sound, disabled Low Battery camera shutoff, disabled high volume warning, and long press back button to kill foreground app)
You tube ad away
YouTube background playback.
A few things...
I have figured out that firekitfds, gravitybox mm, and xtouchwiz all break my hotspot.
I use my note 4 hot-spot and a range extender for the Wi-Fi in my home (rural area) works great
With this Rom AND any one of the above it breaks my hotspot. Tried disabling in app (above) and re-enabled. Tried changing to 2.4ghz to reset then back to 5ghz.
No luck anywhere.
Think I remember someone talking about the features. Csc file maybe.
Any help with this?
Also tried using gttools to reset and set Max back to 15. (have about a dozen devices) and that's stock Max for 5ghz band.
Good lock/system ui update
Found this useful on the last rom I was running
When you install the apk it updates systemui.
It changes the notification panel to the good lock ui
Pretty cool to play with and pick what you like.
It will also unlock the hot-spot toggle then you can uninstall update to app only. Not the whole app. Then you have stock from Rom with hot-spot toggle.
I have just uploaded these images:

At least two of those Xposed modules you mention creates a bogus features.xml file at /system/csc/features.xml each time you so much as open the module.
When that happens, delete features.xml before you reboot and that should prevent loss of functionality.
I also now use Good Lock and Xposed framework on UN7 ported ROM. It works as well as it did with rooted stock ROMs except the flashlight toggle in pull-downs are broken; leaves the torch on unless disabled with side panel or reboot. You're better off making a gesture or remap for torch; mine is set to toggle torch on any long press of home button greater than 1 second on any screen condition- off, lockscreen or on with vibrate confirmation. I use Physical Button Music Control Xposed module for that.

Got it.
Did some digging and found mention of firekitfds 1.0.2
Works great and didn't break my Hotspot settings/functionality
Will install good lock now and see how that goes. Maybe should have installed that before.
But I did make a new backup with xposed installed so it doesn't take me so long each time. The framework, installer app, won't break Hotspot. Only on running the module and reboot.
Question...
If I deleted that file mentioned above before my reboot will the other changes still take effect? Seems it would be pointless if not?

I was aware that the oldest stable release of Firefds Xposed module didn't break functionality but didn't recall 1.0.2 was also not breaking function. It works because it doesn't create the unneeded features.xml file. So there's no need to check or delete with those module versions; you can open and edit with no worries.
Changes should take place without features.xml because marshmallow doesn't use features.xml but others.xml
It's odd that updates of Firefds Xposed module broke functionality but updates have followed the same unneeded creation of features.xml- I'm not sure if any of the XTouch module versions worked without issue of unneeded features.xml file being created.
With Good Lock, the Firefds and XTouch Xposed modules are equal. But I noticed with stock SystemUI, there are minor differences. XTouch can eliminate the airplane mode pop-up dialogue but cannot remove the battery icon. Firefds Xposed module was just the opposite. (But Good Lock makes the battery icon persistent but lacks the presence of airplane mode dialogue pop-up.)

i was just going to mention only issue after good lock was firekit was unable to change or hide battery.
Should I even try 3minit?
Hotspot
for anyone this could help. This does not break functionality but everytime you go into firekit it will change Max AP connections to whatever it's set to there. But you can still go to settings, hotspot,configure Hotspot, and set number there to fix. Max in fds is 10
Thanks for all the help and input

I didn't try 3 minute battery mod. Never use it but if you find a solution for removing icon, I'd like to that again with Good Lock. I've always just dealt with it being there.

XTouchWiz does not break hotspot. I find more things work with XTouchWiz on the UN7 ROM vs. Firefds (eg: hide alarm icon works on one but not the other). But I can't modify the battery with both
My flashlight toggle works fine from the pull down, both on and off

Since I brought up the flashlight toggle issue, I should clarify again that the flashlight toggle in pull-down screens stems from my use of Good Lock SystemUI screen replacement.
The flashlight toggle issue wasn't caused by the UN7 ROM or the Firefds Kit Xposed module.
You're finding more functionality and less bugs with XTouchWiz over Firefds Kit but my set of features used reflect no difference when using Good Lock with my feature preferences. I did see features.xml being created with XTouchWiz as well but in either case, since I delete the unwanted created features.xml file, I can't say which is better regarding not killing hotspot in Settings. I didn't give it the chance to fail by deleting when created.
Since both modules haven't been updated in a while, my tests were done against latest stable module releases. I'm considering going back to the suggested Firefds Kit 1.0.2 update which has been noted and confirmed not to create features.xml in Note 4 when module is opened. Personally, I think both modules could use an update to stop features.xml creation.
Thanks for your input. With all the features available, user variance is possible.
I'd also like to hear more confirmation input from others on their experience with these Xposed modules and Good Lock.
Regarding Good Lock unlock reboot error in UN7 ROM, since I've switched to that password unlock with Good Lock and experienced one reboot bug and lag on initial unlock error using wrong password, I've since entered wrong password in 2 occasions without experiencing the reboot bug or lag on unlock. Not sure why that happens and if others can expect same flexibility with Good Lock?

I didn't try the mod on Good Lock but came across this Xposed module: Status Bar Cleanup. Updates are in Google Play and developer claims touchwiz isn't supported.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.seveilith.statusbarcleanup
Hide battery icon works with above module with Good Lock as SystemUI replacement. Didn't test anything else but VPN icon hide which did not work. I used NOTifications Xposed module for that. Kind of neat to allow icon to be present for a bit then get removed.
I should add that the VPN notification I was trying to hide was from Adguard and was tired to Android System. I had to add Android System in ignore list of NOTifications module.

Awesome. Works flawlessly. Bye bye battery icon. If I can't use a custom icon with percentage inside just the percentage is the next best thing IMO

After the jelly bean 4.3 update and the kit kat 4.4 update for the at&t Samsung galaxy s3, you may have noticed some toggles missing from the drop down notifications menu. I'm going to tell you how to add them in without having to change any system file(s) and without root!
Tools needed
An at&t Samsung galaxy s3 running on 100% stock (should work on all variants as well as any other Samsung phone running Android 4.3 or higher)
The quick panel manager app (check the play store)
Root -OPTIONAL- not required
Some patience
After installing the quick panel manager app, open it and push edit at the top right. You will see your current toggles in text form. To add a toggle type the toggle name followed by a ; then hit save. For example to add mobile data you would type: MobileData;
Note the capital and lower case letters! These are important to it working right!
You're done! You should now have the toggle you added given your phone supports it.
BUGS
The only things that do not really work are air gesture, smart pause, and WiFi calling. Everything else should work fine.
I have attached screenshots of my toggles and quick panel manager app for reference.
HAPPY MODDING!
I just rooted my 3 XL, and have Magisk installed of course.
So what are the must have Modules on this new phone ?
- Is there a mod that allows me to "Swipe down Expand notifications" without installing a separate launcher like Nova ?
- Mod to give me back the old 3 soft nav keys ? The Back / Home / Recents setup?
- Best battery saver mod ?
- Greenify still needed for Pixel 3 type phones ?
- Mod to allow me to have separate volume options for Ringer and Notification sounds ?
Thanks

1. Not that I'm aware of yet except nova.
2. This mod with adb shell will give you the old nav bar back..https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-3/help/how-to-remove-gesture-navigation-return-t3856560
3. Best battery saver mod is to let your phone learn your usage for a while, and keep track of any rouge apps you see.
4. I can't speak about greenify. Some like it, but I've never needed it on my P2XL. Can't imagine the P3XL will be much different.
5. You'll likely need a custom rom for that one.
How about mods for stock launcher to increase rows/columns and icon size?
Would rather keep using stock launcher (over custom ones) in order to use the native "swipe up" screen

take a look in the themes and mods section. there are mods you can flash available that will do that
The Edge Sense Plus app in the apps and mods section is great for changing the settings for the edge squeeze.
