How do I access System UI? - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

I'm trying to figure out how to access system ui tuner. If I search the settings for system ui, it finds it, but I can't launch it. I keep reading to hold down the gear icon in the notification area for 10 seconds and it's supposed to add system ui tuner to the settings but that's not working for me.

Where did you read about this? , I somewhat remember something of the sort

I just got into it using activity launcher.
Using that or other equivalent software look for under System UI find the option called "system UI demo mode". Once you launch the system UI demo mode the system ui tuner appears.
It doesn't seem to add a menu option. So you will need to repeat the steps above or create a shortcut to the respective activity.

On, so that did get me into systemui settings. What I'm trying to do with it is I have a sound profiles app. On my last phone I used a different sound profiles app. The sound profiles in the notification area was always the first item listed. That just makes sense. Well, I just got this Note 10+ and for whatever reason the sound profiles app i used to use on my old phones doesn't work on the Note 10+. Its not changing the volumes correctly. I changed to a different sound profile app called audio profiles. This program is working perfect with adjusting the volumes, but it always appears at the bottom of the notifications. Sometimes I have to scroll to see it. I posted to another forum and someone suggested that system ui settings allow you to adjust which notifications appear at the top of the notifications. I'm not finding that in the system ui settings.

Try maybe with Samsung SoundAssistant app (to manage profiles etc.)

Power Control Widget Settings?

Is there any place to change what options are on the Power Control widget? I've found settings to be kind of a pain on this phone so far...
I was having problems setting up Google Voice to control my voice messages. I kept getting "network is not currently supported for automatic set up". All I wanted to do is find where in the settings menu the Voicemail setting was...Why did they hide it in with the "Phone" app rather then in the actual phone settings menu? Took so long to figure that one out lol...
Yeah moving the voicemail was kind of silly. You can customize whats on the power widget by using a app named Widgetsoid.

No really, not a different customizable widget...
Is there a way to change the settings on an already configured Power control widget?
I used to go about adding a new widget and deleting the old one, but that gets tedious.
I thought I found the existing widget settings somewhere when I updated to cm7.2 but now I cannot for the life of me find it ANYWHERE
I just want to choose different brightness toggles, but I do not want to go through all of the data / wifi / sync combos again...

I'm on Verizon and it doesn't support automated setup but when I clicked the help it told me to dial *something and that fixed it right up.

Just use something like widgetsoid. The stock Power Control widget has its 5 toggles and can't be changed.
Answered my question!

Thank you for the answer to my question.. I wish the setting could be changed so you didn't have to install another widget control bar.
Question #2: Is it safe to remove the Original Power Control widget .apk so I can get rid of unused apps?
Thanks!

[Q] Missing settings/options icon in several apps

I recently updated my ROM version to the latest version, and suddenly realize that the settings/options icon is missing in several applications. In Google Chrome, for example, the options button (with the three dots) next to the tabs icon is missing. The softkey options button in Gmail and almost every other app is also missing.
I found a thread on Google Product Forums describing this problem I'm having, except it was for a phone with a hardware options button. Therefore, does my phone maybe think that it has hardware buttons, for some reason? And how do I get it back?

There should be an option in your settings somewhere saying something like menu-UI overflow, or something along those lines.

Thank you, that solved it! I found it was an AOKP setting, and it was under Settings -> ROM Control -> General UI -> Show Menu UI Overflow.

System UI Tuner has been removed, but I need a setting in it that isn't anywhere else

Hi everyone,
I know that almost all of the settings in System UI Tuner are now elsewhere in lineage os, but I need to enable the native "dark mode" feature. Google removed this from system ui tuner, but there is a flashable zip that brings it back and makes it accessible through System UI Tuner. I need to enable System Ui Tuner, then flash the zip, in order to enable a native dark mode. The normal quick settings setting cog icon technique is not working. I've seen the same issue multiple times, but those people found the settings they were looking for elsewhere! All I want is a native, built-in dark mode. Help me!

-solved- 2 alarm icons in status bar since Dec update

Title says it all, I am using the default alarm app (clock). I have toggled alarm on and off, issue remains. It is strange because as a test, I turned off alarm from default app and set alarm with a 3rd party app (timely, which stopped working after pie update) and it shows 1 alarm icon on the right as it was before December update. Anyone else on Dec update using clock as their alarm see same behavior?
Edit: Forgot to mention, I am on stock rooted rom with substratum pitch black theme by Altan krk, this has been my setup for a very long time.
Edit 2: After swiping down status bar and clearing notifications, the alarm icon on the left disappeared!?!? ?
Edit 3: As the time approaches close to the alarm, a upcoming alarm shows up in notifications (see post below), the 2nd alarm icon appears as long as the notification is active, annoying but not as much as a constant 2nd alarm icon.
Upcoming alarm notification.
Perhaps I should open a new post instead, but I have a similar issue and the same steps do not resolve my issue.
Whenever I have any alarm at all turned on, I am getting an icon in the upper right near the network signal. This one does not matter whether it's set to go off in 5 minutes or 6 days, it's always there as long as I have an alarm enabled. I have cleared notifications but it still remains. The only thing I have been able to find to clear it is turning off the alarm/s.
When I have an alarm coming up soon, I get the icon on the left side of the notification bar. This one I am used to and is how I expect things to work, and I'm fine with this icon.
I just want the always-there-icon on the right hand side to be gone! So frustrating! I feel like this has just started showing up in the last 2-3 weeks.
I am on a completely stock Pixel 2XL from Verizon. Anyone else with the same thing?

All of my android phones have always displayed the alarm icon on right, as far as I know that is the correct behavior. What you want (alarm set with no icon at all) was able to be done on Oreo with system UI tuner, that is not available in Pie. Unless you root, which isn't possible since you have a Verizon Pixel, I don't think there's much you can do.
AFAIK,
Left hand side: The alarm notification will pop up when the time gets close to when the alarm is set for.
To hide: Long press on the notification itself, it should give you the option to hide it.
Right hand side: On Pie, I had to install a 3rd party launcher to access the System Tuner UI. This will allow you to chose what system icons appear on the notification bar.
To hide: A quick google search will provide the steps necessary. Basically, you use a 3rd party launcher to create a shortcut to System Tuner UI.
These are the steps I found on reddit:
"1. Download QuickShortCutMaker
2. In the search bar (in the app) type in "Demo Mode"
3. Click on the "System UI" option
4. Click on the "System UI demo mode" option that appears after clicking on "System UI"
5. Click the "Try" button
6. There you go, you can now access the system UI tuner again, without having to install nova launcher"
Hope that helps!

Question Gripes with XIaomi's software limitations, anyone can help?

Hi guys,
I bought a Xiaomi 13 Pro recently for battery life and camera and I'm certainly happy with it! However, coming from an AOSP-ish experience I can't help but feeling very frustrated with the UI/UX of MIUI so far, setting up my new phone, especially:
1. Not being able to use full-frame gestures on third party launchers
2. The app manager cleaning my widget apps when I clean apps forcing them to close and not refresh widgets before I reload the app + reload the widget
3. Having to set up manually lockscreen notifications for every sub category of notifications within each and every app - by default, apps will not show lockscreen notifications and when the general toggle within the notification menu is switched on, I have to go into each notification subcategory to re-confirm my setting of actually having this notification show on the lockscreen in a secondary toggle - is there any way ALL can be selected to show on lockscreen = ON by default?
4. Lockscreen notifications disappearing when I unlock the screen once
5. Some apps just not working at all, like Tiktok (I'll write a different post on it)
6. Unnecessary bloatware I don't need
If you have any workarounds for any of these issues or know how to get something as close as AOSP as possible that would be very much appreciated, as much as I love the hardware of this phone, the software is difficult to manage and I don't want to end up selling the phone!
Thank you so much

***For this it's actually the app that can't connect to the internet, not the notifications. Nothing seems to be unlocking like if an invisible firewall was blocking the app.

Possible,Try: settings/connection share/DNS
You won't have this problem with a Xiaomi Eu rom.
