Lost quick settings tiles - LG G7 ThinQ Questions & Answers

Hi, I was trying different themes and apps to change things like the color accent of the quick settings, none was working for me so I uninstalled them all. Now the problem is that the first row of the quick settings panel, the 6 one that we see when we pull the panel half way, are not showing, they are there if I tap on one it still works, but they are invisible.
Does anyone know how to fix this ?
Thanks in advance

Notification overlay closing...

I'm sure i'm missing a little checkbox somewhere in settings, but this is driving me crazy. Every time i use the power control in the notification pulldown (CM 6.1.1 w/cyanoginger 1.1) the pulldown closes automatically. I use these constantly when i'm going to work (to toggle lockscreen, volume, wifi, etc) and having to re open it after each toggle is a pain.
Anyone have an idea of what setting i'm overlooking?

ps- yes i used search looked through several pages and didnt see anything so i apologize in advance if i missed it. Thanks in advance for being courteous.

Yes there is a setting go to settings, cyanogenmod settings, user interface, and I'm pretty sure if you scroll down it let's you pick the widget buttons as well as check whether the notification bar closes after toggle.

Quick access to Rotate screen

Hello,
Quick question. After I flashed the QPE rom on M8 there seems to be no quick way to access the "Auto Rotate Screen" except by going through the settings --> display.
I tried to download widgets from playstore but they didn't work.
Does anyone know any solution?
Thanks,
Anyone have a solution?

Hi, Punira...
Have you tried this...

Used it for three years on a variety of Android devices, and it works on my stock M8.

Thanks!
Thanks,
This works great!!
Can't you use the quick setting panel? Pull down the notification panel with 2 fingers will take you immediately there & tap "Auto Rotate". If Auto Rotate is not, you should be able to edit the shortcuts & add it (at least in stock form).

Correct... He could just have removed one of the less important quick settings and added the auto rotate. Like DND, something that I personally never used and probably won't, so might as well remove that one and add auto rotate.

Yeah... this is a more elegant solution to the one I posted earlier. Just wasn't sure if the OPs Custom ROM would allow it.
@Punira
Afraid I don't know anything about the QPE rom you have installed... but if it's anything like HTC Sense factory stock, you should be able to edit the quick settings tiles.
See my attached screenshots... pull down the quick settings tiles (with two fingers on stock) and tap on the edit button, circled in red in my attached screenshot.
You can then drag'n'drop tiles accordingly... including adding the Auto-Rotate tile .
Hope this helps... and good luck.

Nitpicky observations

Loving this phone so far, but there are a couple things bothering me. The first is no double tap recent button to bring up last used app. Why is this not in OOS? I use that all the time and it's not there.
Second is nav bar color and style. Anyone able to get a subatratum nav bar theme to stick? Why is the default background white with no way to change it?
Anyway have tricks to solve these little annoyances? What are your picky criticisms of the OP5t so far?

I'm pretty sure the double tap for recent apps is suppose to be on there. Have you checked the settings as you can set actions for each button
The best way around that is to use an app called navbar apps. You can set I to change colour occording to the app or set a solid colour

Yea I did map all my other normal button functions but that one is missing. Thanks, I'll check out that app.

The double tap recents for the last app is working for me. I didn't change any settings for that, it just works.

Do you see that option on my list of choices? Def not there.

You have to set it to "no action". This will set the default action which is the most recent app.
Tested double tap recent and it works.
Oh wow, so no action actually has an action. Genius. Thanks for the help
Yeah, I think that double-tap on the multi-task key bringing up the last app has been part of Android for some time now. I could be mistaken.

No more Status Bar?

Hi - I just set up a new S9 (AT&T). I installed my apps and went through some out of the box software updates so its now running 8.0.
Last night I noticed that when on my homescreen my Status Bar is now gone. It comes back if I open an app or go into the Apps drawer, but I cant see it from any page on my homescreen.
I can still swipe down from the top of the screen to get to the settings shortcuts, but I cant see Notifications, Battery, Signal, etc from any homescreen pages.
Its actually making me crazy - was hoping someone might have some thoughts on how to remedy this?
Thanks.
Hi after trying all morning I finally solved this - I found a lot of other posts outside XDA struggling with this issue so just wanted to update in case anyone else is having this problem.
I was using a picture as my wallpaper. For some reason this was making the bar invisible (or somehow the color changes to blend in to the background completely?). I changed to a Samsung stock wallpaper and it was visible again. I then changed back to set my picture as the wallpaper, and now the status bar is still visible...
Whatever - dont know why, but it worked!

How to define, what is shown on the lockscreen

Hi all,
I'm using the lockscreen notifications to get informed about new messages, traffic information,... without unlocking the phone. What I don't want to see on my lockscreen are persistent notifications like AdGuard or my network speed meter. In the notification settings I can only switch them on/off globally, so they will also disappear from the status bar (but that's exactly where I want to see e.g. my network speed).
I'm pretty sure, there was an option sometime in the past saying 'Hide notification on lockscreen'. But I cant find that anymore in Beta19 nor Beta20. How do you control what is shown on the lock screen? Is this option hidden somewhere? Or do you use a third party lockscreen app?
Edit: I learned now, that I have to have a lockscreen defined when i want to change the visibility on the lockscreen.... Anyway, any recommendations for a good third party app?
