Swipe up from the bottom like you are going to app drawer but only swipe 1/2 what you used to do, then swipe to the right until you see Clear all.

Notification Bar

Where is the notification bar in most roms. I Love the notification bar in MI.UI I still like CM better though. I want to add the notification bar to CM. Does anyone know where the notification bar app is if its an app?
The notification bar is at the bottom on cm7 on the fire, just slide up in the middle to view your notifications.

I meant in the source code. Anyway I found it. For future reference it is in the SystemUI.apk file

How did you change that? I would like mine on top also, but cannot find where to do it. I am running CM9.

The current CM9 ROMs do not have that setting enabled in the menus yet.

and will never have, ics (and with that CM9) is not designed to put the bar on top on tablets...
How does one change it on CM7? I have seen it before but cannot seem to find it again. Thanks in advance.

Sort of... You can change the "status bar" to the top of the screen, which in turn moves the notifications slide to the top as well, but what I really want is to just pull the notifications slide from the top while leaving all the soft buttons on the bottom.
Is that even possible?

I see. I was really hoping it was just a setting. I seem to hit the notification bar instead of the space bar quite often in landscape.

Look back in tablet tweaks there is an option to 'enable deadzone' should disable the middle part of the statusbar might resolve your trying to hit the spacebar

[Q] Does Sense allow a "clear all" from the multitasking window?

it's really annoying to have to swipe apps away one at a time.

Not that I have discovered. It won't even let you multi-swipe. I agree, it would be much easier if there was an option.

no, i think thats only on 4.3
Does swiping the app away actually close the app or just make it disappear from the recents tray?

This was just posted to r/android about a week ago. Give it a read if you're interested in the swiping of apps in the recent menu.

Been like that since release day, so that's why J to the 4n wrote a little "Kill All" button into the Multitasking window. Its been annoying people ever since although we did try to explain on the ViperOne thread for ages that it doesn't matter how many apps are shown there as it doesn't mean they are necessarily active apps.
However, there is people who would like to not see a history of apps on their phone so e.g. the girlfriend can't see whats the guy been doing...
I hope you Verizon folks will get ViperOne to your phones soon too. Wish you best of luck!
If you're rooted, you should install xposed framework + Sense 5 toolbox. The latter has an option to allow pinch or swipe down from the multitask window to clear it out.

Here: http://dl.xposed.info/modules/com.langerhans.one_v14_0e220e.apk
I can confirm that the clear all feature works as well as the other mods that are in there ( volume wake, battery icon change, center clock, transparent status bar, etc) It actually adds a Sense 5 Toolbox entry in the settings menu which is nice.

Try long pressing the recent apps button and see if that brings up menu while in app drawer.

If you don't have the 3 dot menu I've highlighted, try long pressing recents to open the menu.

What he wants to do is change the size of the icons on the home screen!
OP, you can't do it on the stock launcher as far as I know.

yeah wonder why they left that out and oh yeah? maybe i will look into that.
There used to be an option for add shortcuts, you would then select settings and they had the battery option in there. Samsung has removed this, for whatever reason.

yeah i know right why would they do this? and not happy about it haha
do you use nova? if so you have to use a nova shortcut action . an app like anycut or whatever it was called would work. you gotta go for the shortcut under system and then find the correct battery reporting shortcut. I have it on mine using nova.

Double Tap Home Button

Does anyone know of an app that allows me to double tap the home navigation button to bring down the notification panel on my pixel 2 xl? Thanks in advance.

I know I'm not answering your question but you should try the gesture feature to bring down notification instead. I think it's better plus you don't need to run a third party application.
Go into settings>system>gestures>enable swipe down for notification
I really would like the swipe down to bring notifications down feature, that nova launcher does provide. Thats somehow a must have feature for me. I'd really like to use the stock launcher, but i just keep going back to nova because of this. Oh, and the icon packs... I don't find the swipe down on the fingerprint sensor that intuitive....

If you guys like the mod by amir. I found another one that's better in my opinion. It gives you options for how the the gradient is and more columns and rows, etc. I use the 6.1 mod.
