Oreo collapsed notification - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using "power toggles" and in nougat the toggles are shown in the notification area in expanded mode. In Oreo however, the notification is collapsed and I have to expand it to press the toggle buttons. Is there a way to make it always expand?

Same question..... @cesman, any luck in finding a resolution?

You have to choose "pinned on top and icon present". I used the battery icon shop at least it is showing something useful

Sound Profile Change from Notification Pull Down - ?

I do not see the ability to change my sound profile: sound , vibrate, silent -by pulling down on the notification bar shortcuts...
Is that a possibility in Nougat ? If so, how.
I have an old widget called "Silent Mode Widget" that I can place on my home screen, but have somewhat gotten accustomed to just pulling down from the top of the screen to make the change... Thanks in advance for any tips on this one.
Just found this. swipe down to open quick settings shade, pull down again to access more quick settings, and then you'll see "do not disturb", that has the sound silence settings in it. If you hit edit you can move it up to the top row if you want.
I see that, but that is not what I am referring to. - That is for a period of time for "Do Not Disturb" - It is not the volume toggle button where you have three options for "Sound, Vibrate, or Silent" which is what I'm looking for...
I was looking for the same thing and found a free app that adds the toggle - works great:

If you want some more toggle options, there are other apps as well.
Volume Slider LIKE 'Brightness' Slider would be perfect!
I wish there was an app/tweak that would allow one to install a volume slider like the brightness slider in quick settings that did not require all sorts of other development tools and a desk/laptop! That would be perfect. And again, like others are saying it should have come with the OS.
The real question is, how do we edit the more in depth sounds? Like with my s7 edge I could control the volume of system sounds, ringer, media, and notifications. How would we do that on pixel I can't find any setting that lets me do it.

I use Volume Butler from the Playstore it works great! It also separates the ring volume and the notification volume. Very easy setup.

Battery percentage in status bar

Hi , I would like to ask if it is possible to do display the battery percentage in the status bar?
Thanks in advance
Hi, i used this metod:
"Here's how to get the battery percentage to display on stock Android:
Enable System UI Tuner. To do this, swipe down the Quick Settings panel and you'll see the settings gear icon at the top of the display. Press and hold this for a few seconds.
After a few seconds, the System UI Tuner will be enabled and will appear at the bottom of the settings menu. Once it's enabled, a spanner icon appears next to your settings shortcut icon and you'll get an onscreen notification.
Open the System UI Tuner menu and tap "status bar". Towards the bottom you'll see the option called "battery" with a number of choice. Select "always show percentage".

Features i'd like to have on my OnePlus5T

As the title says, there are some things i miss from my old nexus 6:
-[statusbar]click on clock and open clock
-[statusbar]click on date and open calendar
-[statusbar]doube tap to lock the screen
-[navbar] settings where to change color (static custom color, color from app[like statusbar])
-[navbar] settings to add text cursor
-[navbar] settings to hide navbar after X seconds or permanently or to swipe up to get the navbar
-[navbar] settings to change spacing on navbar elements or to order them
-[navbar] long press back button to kill app
-[navbar] custom apps on fast double click/long press on navbar icons
-[volume buttons] settings to move text cursor with volume up/down or inverse
-[lockscreen] change apps shortcuts
-[homescreen] swipe to left/right for google now or some other custom app
-[ambient-display] change how notifications are shown (like stock pixel/nexus)
can someone tell me if there are apps (magisk compatible) that can add this features?
PS: tell me also if there are some other cool feature that we can get on OnePlus5T
Give the LineageOS team time. They'll come up with firmware that'll incorporate all of that. And speaking as a user of the original G1, I miss hardware keyboards.
A proper working notification slider.

questions about Dirty Unicorns rom

hi, if someone is using DU (pixel 3 in particular) can confirm if it is possible to center clock and show date in status bar?
and is it possible to someway assign actions like "show volume panel", "show power menu", "expand notification panels", "kill foreground app" with long press back button etc etc to navbar gestures?
or if not, is possible to show old navbar style instead of using new gestures and assign such actions to virtual navbar buttons?
tia!

Center clock? Wouldn't the notch hide it? edit: NVM realised it's for Pixel 3. Yes you can center it as far as I know. And yes, you can use Smartbar (legacy navbar kind of)

Doesn't work for me. Swiping down on notification just pulls down the notification panel. Do I have to disable the pull down notifications gesture first?
When using your phone and you receive a notification as a pop-up on your screen, you do a quick swipe down on that to launch the notification into a pop-up window
If you're trying to launch a notification from your notification pull down list.... then press and hold on the notification continuously until you get to drag it to the center of the screen to launch as a popup, or to the edges (if using an other app) to split screen the existing app with the notifying app!

Thanks but that first option doesn't work for me. Swiping down on the toast notification just brings down the notification bar. Had no effect on the active notification pop-up. I will try disabling that gesture and see if it behaves the way you describe. That would be a very helpful feature for me. Thank you.
I do have the swipe down gesture to pull the notification drawer too...
In my developer settings I have these 2 options enabled -
1. Force activities to be resizeable
2. Enable free-form windows
I think I figured your issue... you must have selected "detailed" and not "brief" as your notification style in your notification settings

Yes you are correct. Just changed to brief. I will try as soon as I get a notification. Thank you!

It works! Thank you great feature! Samsung really needs to go back to including 600 page manuals with these things! I wonder how many other useful features I still don't know about???
