Remove brithness slider - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

hi,
I've searched quite a bit on the forum and can't find anything that seems to do it. I know some custom rom have it in their System UI tuner but I prefer running stock.
Basically, I use Lux app for my brightness since I like having different profiles triggered by tasker. hence the brightness slider is redundant for me and takes up space when I never use it.
If anybody has an idea of a substratum theme or something like that that I can use on a rooted stock rom with magisk.
Thanks

You can use GravityBox Xposed module
Quicksettings Management ---> Hide brightness slider

Yeah i've seen your aroma but it seems that EdgeSense plus doesn't play well with your aroma.
I think I've read that it's because EdgeSense using magisk plugin replaces the systemui.apk at EACH boot to make sure the setting stick.
So I guess any mods won't be kept unless edgeSense changes their method?
EDIT: I think it's for the same reason 3minit wasn't working and is related to the answer you gave me on the other post. Is there a way to have your aroma as a module also or do you suggest me to change the way I manage my phone and doing it without modules?

[MOD] Remove Location Icon ( UPDATE: 12/17/2013)

Since there was not one posted i decided to post a Remove Location Icon flashable zip file for those who just decide to stay stock de-bloated.
The update script is by andybones, and i modified the apk.
This will work with stock,and deodex, roms as long as you have no other modifications are made in the systemUI.apk
I also included the stock file as well.
Flash in recovery and wipe the dalvik-cache, reboot, SUCCESS !
There are Three files. The Remove_Location.zip will work for both odex and deodex roms.
For odex roms it deletes the odex file and replaced it with a deodex version. It will work just fine don't stress out about it....
The other two are stock deodex and stock odex. If you want to go back make sure you use the right one!
UPDATE(12/17/2013): I added the 2.10.605.1 update mod..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48592241&postcount=31
UPDATE(11/21/2013): I added the .15 update mod as the systemUI.apk is not the same for that update .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47683138&postcount=28

Please read here before flashing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46812076&postcount=24

I corrected this problem, and the code is now fixed !
Is it still a blank icon that just now AFTER the Beats icon, or is it really space freed up for other notifications?
I don't have that behavior myself on my device after flashing as seen in the posted screenshot. Anyone else ?
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using xda app-developers app
Edit:
Note that even though the modification to the systemUI.apk smali code should set the icon to a with of zero, the actual location of those icons are in the same file
Those were technically removed on my first attempt, which yielded the blank space between the beats icon and 4G symbol or whatever else. That b/c I didn't take into account the smali code in systemUI.apk
Now on my device theI just applied the systemUI.apk modification which just set the width of the ' clear ' location icon to zero which made the space disappear. I have tested this several times by replacing the original systemUI.apk and systemUI.odex files and then re-flashing the modified one and it functions as shown in the OP screenshot.
I also compared the MD5 checksum with the one I flashed vs the one I downloaded from here in case i accidentally messed up and they are identical.

I was going to say, that those status bar mods are not stock
The SystemUI.apk holds some of the icons for the statusbar, and the systemUI.apk hold the codes that control the blank space between the 4G icon and the beats icon that is where the blank space was.
Those are the files that were modified by me, the first being accidental leaving the space between the beats icon and the 4G symbol, and the later resolved the space
Either way, I had the space previously with your first mod and flashed the updated zip and the space is gone. Thanks for the fix!

Cool, no problem, I am glad it is resolved .
I like the clcok and battery mods there. I wish there was an easy way to do that while keeping the stock ROM. there's no custom ROMs for this phone yet that I've fallen in love with. Bone Stock was good for a While, but even that one I found myself going back to true stock ROM and just debloating it myself.

Navigation bar on stock Rom

Guys how to enable navigation bar on stock odex Rom 4.2.2?
I used gravity box and Modaco tools and both are giving error as 'system ui has stopped' and blank statusbar after reboot
Then I tried build.prop edit and even I landed on same error
Anybody has tried? If so could give a proper way to enable it thanks.

sir i also tried it once but had same fate as your's

I tried even on stock based custom ROMs but no results...this can be done only on cm or pacman ROMs as u said.

I think I had to decompile SystemUI.apk and add/edit something like
<item type="drawable" name="tw_navigationbar_bg">#FFRRBBGG</item>
then adding/editing the line in build.prop didn't cause FC and gave me nav bars.
I did this a long time ago I can't be sure that's all I did, but it was something along those lines. I'm sure there's a method available on xda to enable navbar on samsung 4.2.2 by now
We hv to write d above gvn lines at last in build.prop. ..?

Yes and the systemUI needs to be decompiled, edited and recompiled into an apk to stop the force closes on stock ROM with nav bar
I also tried many things on stock to enable navbar but no use.
I also watched a few videos on youtube and for them it was working on stock but i made the same changes in build.prop but every time the same error, dont know why.
So now i'm on CM11 and using navbar, I dont know what the problem is but i'm sure some devs will soon be able to solve this.

I came across this while browsing through XDA, Ultimate Dynamic NavBar
Since there is no available mod for stock ROMs for our device, it would be easier to rely on this App/Xposed module to enable Nav Bar in your phone. It also offers several customization options along with themeing the icons visible in your navbar.

I've used this one but the stock navbar is better coz it works well with the UI.
But i've seen a few videos, you can also check them out on youtube, the guy made changes in the stock rom in build.prop by adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=0, restarted and voila he got the navbar. I just wanna know how?

That works most of the time, specially in AOSP ROMs, but unfortunately simply doing that in most new Samsung 4.2.2+ firmware causes SystemUI to crash.
From what I know, this happens because our SystemUI was not designed to support a NavBar so when the android system allots the lower space to the Navbar (after editing build.prop) the SystemUI tries to redraw over/with it and fails, causing a FC. Therefore, something like the line I mentioned in one of my earlier posts is required in the drawables of SystemUI.apk before Navbar can be used on stock.
"<item type="drawable" name="tw_navigationbar_bg">#FFRRBBGG</item>"
Fortunately for us, we now have Xposed, which enables us to edit system apks without actually modifying them. So in my opinion it's easier to simply make/use a mod for enabling this feature in SystemUI.apk rather than making a ROM-specific mod for enabling it.

Disabling the stock clock/weather screen on the KLD

Hello,
I have a KLD unit and I'm wondering is there any way - besides installing Android from another manufacturer - to get rid of the first screen that's blocked with the clock/weather widget (or should I say - app?)
I would like to delete the widget/app and free up the screen. The weather widget is terrible, doesn't even want to work properly under either 3G or WiFi. I have no use for it.

You should be able to root by using the *#hct#root# password when entering factory settings, install supersu and then update the binary the normal way and reboot = rooted stock firmware no flashing involved.

I agree with the other answeres.
Just root the device with the password *#hct#root#
After that the device will show a dialog if any app needs root access.
You will also find a new Superuser menu in settings menu.
For my device I am currently running the Next 3D launcher (it is not for free on Google Store)
But it looks really awesome with lots of effects / transitions / icons and so on that can be downloaded for free.
Starting to play around with your device you might also want to check out apps that help with memory management like APP2SD or Android Toolkit.
For advanced modding have a look at ROMS from Malaysk (new firmware) - then you will be able to do more or less everything with your device.
Have fun
André

Hi! I would like to keep original launcher but without stock clock and weather! What should I do when I install supersu??? Can you explain in more detail (P.S. I have rooted and updated my device MCU 2.64 KLD) Thanks!
Just install Nova launcher - that doesn't even require root.
Fully customisable and much quicker and lighter than the stock launchers.

The solution in my case was just to install a Malaysk ROM and be done with it.
Once you do that, you can select which launcher you use. You can use the NEXT launcher instead which is more versatile and then do the things you want with it.

On-screen Allow/grand/install buttons not working

First of all i would like to wish everyone here on XDA merry Christmas and happy holidays and a huuuge thank for your help.
So recently i decided i wanter all my notifications to be displayed in Paranoid Androids Halo mode i achieve that by installing the following 2 apps
Unique Controls
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ivianuu.halo
XHFW3 - floating windows - ver. 3.19 beta
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-xhfw3-floating-windows-t3371074
everything works fine, however i noticed that the (allow, install or grand on-screen buttons) dont work, whilst the cancel button works fine... e.g when installing an app i cant touch install but i can touch cancel or grans SuperSU access
i am currently running the stock OxygenOS 3.2.8
rooter with xposed installed.
p.s if i kill the Unique Controls (halo) app everything works as supposed to.
does anyone know any workaround this or a fix, i have uninstalled this 2 apps for the time beeing but i would really love to make this happen.
If you're on MM and have xposed, there is a module called NoScreenOverlay. This is exactly what you need. Check it out. Cheers.

[ROOT][PIE] Night Light for XZ Premium (and many others)

Hey guys,
Rooted recently, got on Pie and found myself missing the Night Light - such a little thing that makes all the difference at night. Tried redoing the steps I did to enable it on Oreo but failed.
Anyway, long story short, after a few xda threads I installed Pix3lify, which is a hit n miss - and I already had Digital Wellbeing port. So I extracted the apks responsible for night light only and put them in a zip.
The apk had a lot of lines reporting to Ambient display and other functionalities which have been removed - the apk has 2kb and enables night light - just that.
Install: Copy nightLight.apk to system > vendor > overlay (set 644/-rw-r--r-- permissions). Best to use MIXplorer
OR
Flash the zip via TWRP/Magisk Installer (Nightlight_v1)- Thanks to @alagga for the Magisk Module
Since the port is from Pixel, it goes hand in hand with Digital Wellbeing port (magisk module).
Night Light settings in Display > Advanced > Night Light. Quick settings tile present in the dropdown customization area.
Have a good Night(Light)

I found pixelify a bit buggy for xzp, that's why I took out only the apk for ambient display/night light, modified the lines so it only enables night light. I only use the digital well-being. If the zip doesn't work try manually putting it in overlays and set permissions.
So no pixelify plugin, just that zip (tested on my xzp single sim on android pie).
Tell me how it goes
Flashing the ZIP didn't work for me. Copying the apk manually did though. Thanks!
Zip worked after a Little bit of flashing and copying. Dom anyone else havet worse screen respondnes?

Thanks for the feedback! I've did the modifications very late at night so I recycled a zip I had in handy. There was a lot of copy/paste of the apk and not so much twrp flashing. Updated description.
And I didn't notice any screen sluggishness. I'll keep an eye out tho
Thanks again!
I can't modify the system partition and I'm running mixplorer with root. That's strange

Double check the root permissions in magisk root section - perhaps you denied them by mistake. mixplorer has no issues manipulating root files - as long as it has the permission granted
[update]Strange. I can't seem to modify root folder structure - for example, adding a new folder in priv-app does nothing - tried with two file explorers. Best bet is to use a flashable zip for such apps or TWRP's file explorer which has plenty of manipulation options.

Could you do a port for the Ambient display feature, too? Its the only thing I'm missing: "Ambient display: Wake screen when you receive a notification" - Without this feature the notification light hints at the notification, but I have to press a button to see the notification.

In its original form, there were lines calling the ambient display. But it felt buggy and since the screen is LCD, I found it very inconvenient since my goal was the night light. I'll send the original overlay tomorrow.
Cheers

Would be nice, but no hurry! :good:
The original mod for Oreo worked also just installing the apk without root... do I need root for this one to work on Pie?
