Sort by Alphabet
Settings>>General>>Main Screen
Click right side of Oppo Launcher

Took me a while to find that one myself. Of course then it didn't work, apps didn't sort at all but it fixed itself after I reinstalled the beta and it would then sort them. Just an FYI in case you hit the button and nothing happens.

It's odd that I have nothing under Settings>General>Main Screen as in I don't have a "Main Screen", but if I am in the app drawer and I long press an icon (they start wiggling) and at the bottom in green you can tap it to put them in alphabetical order.

No, you don't. When its working they will immediately sort themselves, when something is hosed they won't restart or no. As to the fellow above you are on 1.2, they changed it in the beta to an option in the main settings and the drawer no longer sorts by a long press in the drawer.

Thanks lagunabad. I have been struggling to get TWRP on here, so I hadn't put the beta on yet. Finally got TWRP on just now, so I'll see what everyone else sees.

[Q] Lolipop Notification drawer.. WHITE!!!

Oh god please tell me I can change this to the dark theme from KK. I looked in the settings and cannot find it.
Love this phone but I cant take it anymore without root and custom roms. 90749175791 ATT bloatware notifications, lag, and now horribly disturbingly ugly WHITE notifications in the notification drop down.
Someone tell me there is light from this dark tunnel.

30 views 0 replies, looks like the tunnel is getting darker. Selling Note 4 : 500 flat =)

Yeah, selling it is your best choice. There's no way to change that without root, and root is not looking good.

Cant you just downgrade to kitkat?

You can change it if you're willing to use a different launcher. Nova Launcher can do it, for example.

Where is the option to do this?

I don't think nova launcher does it. I have nova and don't see the option. I know you can change the notification bar. But don't see options for drop down menu.

I was going to say "Nova Settings > Drawer > Background" but I just realized I'm still on KitKat. Maybe it's different on Lollipop...

Thanks, actually I tried that, that setting is only for APP drawer not notification drawer. I still have a Note 3. Its sad but I may actually go back to Note 3 and give my wife the Note 4. Other option is to sell and go to another phone, not sure yet, the Note 4 with the gold versus case just looks too good

Any way to remove the ugly shadow gradient in the quick settings?

I can't be the only one this eyesore bugs. Is there a way remove or mask it?

lol No, I'm talking about the shadow at the bottom not the icons. I guess the screenshot isn't showing my issue off very well.

To see the shadowing one must turn the brightness to the max. I don't know how to get rid of it. I know I don't have it but I am in Nougat. And not so many icons can be presented at once.

Screenshot does show it quite well, I see what you mean. I guess it may look different on different screens ... and eyes [emoji14]
That said, I don't know how to fix it. Maybe try looking at some Xposed modules (you are running Marshmallow, right?)

Any navbar apps that add menu? Returning Android newbie

I had an iPhone for a few years and the pixel brought me back. The progress android has made has been phenomenal but I see a few things missing that used to be here before. Honestly I think I'm overlooking it but who knows.
FYI I have an unlocked bootloader and am running magisk running stock rom and kernel.
1. I used to love my Note 1's navbar with the search and menu button in the navbar. I remember xposed being able to do it but the modules haven't been updated and just cause a bootloop on the pixel. The customnavbar by paphonb doesn't allow you to have the menu button on the bar. Is there a way to make this work with oreo?
2. What happened to the text notifications? I replaced Google's main text app with Textra but I recall there being custom notifications and ringers all being in the contacts app.
3. What happened to changing the apps notification sound? Back then it was really easy to set the sound of the apps but I hardly see that feature.
4. Can you change the lockscreen clock font? I changed my system font and the clock has a question mark where the colon used to be. I know I could find another font but I really like this one.
5. How do you get in and out of the phone quickly? I find myself double tapping on the display and most of the time it works. Is there a better way?
Note: I saw some of these tweaks were on substratum but I couldn't get it to work for me. I tried to use substratum but the themes won't take because I'm on stock or because I don't know what I'm doing. I would like a clean lockscreen or one where I could swipe to the left or right and start recording. I forget the name but there used to be an app that customized the lockscreen.
If anyone could help me figure out Oreo I would greatly appreciate it!

Thank you so much for your help!
The font fix is exactly what I needed. I hated that square or question mark for the colon!
The custom nav bar app is the one I was talking about by php. I don't see a way to add the menu button to the nav bar on that app but I'll look and confirm.
I still use my iPhone silicone cases for this phone so the fingerprint won't work. That's disappointing I thought there might be a quicker way.
Thanks though!

It does but it doesn't let you add the menu to the navbar. And it also removes the battery percentage from the status bar for me. I wish it worked because that would be perfect for me with the navbar and customizable sounds [emoji21]

Either get a new case or cut a hole for the fingerprint reader. Problem solved ?

That's fair, but they aren't meant for the pixel phones. Sell them and get a new one with a proper cut out for the fingerprint reader.

So this adds the button that looks like the menu but it doesn't function like the menu at all. It disappears and I think it has to do with the 66 being set as the code. I don't think that's the right code for the menu button to actually work. I took a screenshot.
Either way I'm giving up for now

Android P Ambient Display Question

Anyone know what this line is for on the ambient display for android p?
https://www.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/nexus2cee_ambient-display-p.png
I'm thinking it may be where weather would go if you have that feature set up. I don't. Wondering if there's a way to remove it.
Thanks!

I assumed it was just a separator between the phone's info (time, date, etc) and the notifications? I guess you need to find someone who has the weather enabled (I don't) to see if it's still there. I'm guessing it is.

No it isn't, it's where the weather should be. Unfortunately it requires a clean wipe to fix.

The line is a seperator on ambient display, the pics in the link you quoted are the lockscreen, not ambient display.
the weather on ambient display appears to the right of the date just as it does on homescreen.
remember ambient display is an all black screen.
And yes, it also does appear on the lockscreen, in the same format: date - weather
Seems some people have it, others dont.
I had it yesterday, but its gone today.

Yep it is a separator to split out notifications from the standard Ambient Display info.
Thanks for the info on getting the weather to display. Good stuff! :good:

When I fixed the weather thing I just removed the Google update then put it right back. No reboot was required for me.

Thanks for this. I do have F set there, which means on the homescreen I have the correct temperature, but on the lockscreen it's in C. Odd.

ohh, that is very odd.

I didn't need to wipe the phone to fix the missing weather on the lock screen. Go into apps and disable Google. That reverts it to an older version. Reenable and give it a little bit and it will be there.

Although it's less of a problem, because this morning it has disappeared altogether. Still, never mind. I'll just look out of the window.

I actually never got it to work even though I tried the "fix" I quoted. And further along in the comments, it looks like it disappears for everyone.
