Hide app names?(CM 5.0.6) - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried searching but didn't find anything on it. I was wondering if anyone had made it where the names of my apps didnt show up beneath the icon, or if there's a setting somewhere in CM 5.0.6 to show/hide. I have a light wallpaper and it would be much cleaner without the names below each one.

you can do that in HelixLauncher (both 1 and 2 can do it) so you need to download that launcher; then in the homescreen, click on menu > configure > and there's bunch of options to select

You actually hit Configure...

TIA
Idk
nobody one can help me?

Idk
it comes standard with 5 only CM took off the option but there is a MOD or app i believe that will put the option back to be able to switch between 3 and 3+ home screens (cant remember were to find it at the moment)
search for advanced launcher. With this app, you can adjust your number of homesceens. Just remind that it'll slow down your phone a bit

Along the same lines, will using Advanced Launcer to limit it to three screens speed up your phone a bit?
Thanks to all!

Download symbol weirdness...

Hello everyone.
I have not seen this issue discussed but hope that someone may have an answer.
Every now and then I will have the Fullscreen symbol (chevron) "stuck" in my taskbar/launcher when I'm offline. The odder thing is, is when I then go online and surf/download something the symbol is not there. So it's basically reversed. The only "fix" is to reboot.
Any ideas?
Cyanogenmod, nightly 221 at the moment (though I have tried several newer).
As a side note, this has also happened on my HP Touchpad w/ Cyanogenmod.
dl icon...
Its not a download icon. Its a soft button to hide the status bar
Sorry, but it's not. It normally displays when I open an IP camera, browser, etc.
For whatever reason it reverses itself at times.
Tapping it does nothing as it's not a button.
Edit:
Funny. I took a screen shot while it was on the screen, and it doesn't show up in the picture. All other icons/symbols show. LOL. Wth? I'll take a pic later and post it.
Edit: I re-read your post now. Picture attached with 7.1 download icon on the right, and what I assume is your icon you are talking about on the left. Is that correct?
No, that's not it. I get that one when downloading from the Market, etc. Thanks for the effort though.
Here is a pic of it. It's the far right lower (Chevron) one. Like two inverted arrows. Known as a "Chevron" as it looks like Chevrons (gasoline) logo.
It's got to be something to do with being online, browsing, etc.
Ahhh the mystery of it all.
It's no mystery. I thought that was it (I'm just using a different CM7 bar than you).
Go to Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Tablet Tweaks > Choose soft-buttons and tell me what you have selected.
Home, Menu, Back, Quick Notifications. That's it.
Only thing I can think of is the Fullscreen/Hide Status bar button. Comeone correct me if I'm wrong but I'm still sure that is what it is.
If you open an application that requests full screen (like Netflix or Angry Birds) and press it, does it hide the status bar?

I opened my IP camera app and pressed the icon, and yes, the status bar disappeared (how do I get it back?). But why is the icon showing when I'm not using any app? ie: like it is now.
So now when I open my IP camera app there's no status bar. I don't see a way to get it back. Probably something simple, but I can't find it.
~~
Confirmed that although "Home" is set to restore the Status Bar, it does not. Tried Volume Up, etc. to no avail. Something's buggy. Only a reboot restores things.
Also. Disable Full Screen is checked.
Yeah, looks like the hide bar to me too.
The field under;
Settings -> CM Settings -> Tablet Tweaks -> (Interface) Choose Unhide Button
Is supposed to allow you to pick a button to show the statusbar again.
--Edit--
Just saw your edit, yeah, I have mixed success with the unhide button too.
Not all applications request full screen if I'm right.
Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Tablet Tweaks > Choose unhide button
Most people choose the N button to unhide, then press it again to go to home.
Well I hope this helps someone else. I just found this old post:
"I had the same problem. Went into the ADW Settings menu and scrolled to the bottom and "Reset ADW".
I reset and all is back to normal, AND the home key now brings back the Status Bar as it should! Yay!
I wish I could edit the thread title to "Fullscreen" symbol weirdness, but I can't.
Thanks for the effort guys.

Sorry if my edits messed up the timeline.
There was a bug that I fixed by resetting ADW. Phew.

[MOD] Enable "Hidden" Quick Settings Tiles

This is how to enable all the "hidden" quick tiles in the notification bar that seemed to have been disabled. Between versions of the S5 variants, several quick tiles seemed to be missing from some and enabled in others. Remember, I am NOT responsible for stupidity or whining if YOU do something wrong, phone explodes, etc.
The modifications need Root, SQLite Editor (or equivalent app functioning) and a brain
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE CORRECT PERMISSIONS ON Settings.db OR IT WILL NOT WORK
-----Enabling Quick Tiles-----
1. Open up SQLite Editor
2. Select the Apps tab -> scroll down to Settings Storage and select
3. Click settings.db
4. Click system
5. Click search icon on top right (easiest method to filter) or scroll through db (harder way)
6. Type "notification" in the Filter Value field and press ok
7. Tap "notification_panel_active_app_list" -> select pencil icon on top to edit
8. In Value field, all enabled toggles are listed. Now, add the word "MobileData" (no spaces or quotation marks) to end of list (make sure to have NO SPACES between entries and semicolons separating each entry)
----> ex. Wifi;MobileData;WifiHotspot;Sound; ....
9. Once you add "MobileData", click save button.
10. Close SQLite editor and reboot/profit (see attached screenshot for what it should appear as)
This works for any quick settings tiles that are present, but you MUST type in the correct name (capital letters, no spaces, semicolons all count). One mistake will not show the tile after reboot.
----> instead of "MobileData", you can also "WifiHotspot" (already enabled in miked63017 zip for Hotspot Mod here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2727127 ). Download Booster Quick tile is also able to be added but has no function yet (see my post on updates to status towards getting this working here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2719582 )
-----Missing Tiles (so far noticed, if you know another please comment)-----
*These are exact as they should appear,no spaces and capital letters (case sensitive)
Wifi;MobileData;SilentMode;Location;WiFiHotspot;NetworkBooster;Bluetooth;AirplaneMode;PowerSaving;UltraPowerSaving;Sync;AutoRotate;TouchSensitivity;AllShareCast;Toolbox;MultiWindow;Nfc;SmartStay;SmartPause;DormantMode;CarMode;PersonalMode;SBeam;AirView;AirGesture;DrivingMode;SmartStay;SmartScroll;SmartPause;ToddlerMode;EBook;SmartNetwork;WifiCalling
They can be put in any order and then, upon reboot, be arrange according.
Big thanks to eyecon82 for pathway and miked63017 for Hotspot Mod additions.
wyoud you please be able to post what tiles are missing or what all of them are so users can compare if they need to do this or not .

Right now, I'm investigating an apk with the hidden 'false' value for Booster to see, if by enabling, that it'll work. May not need anything other than push ability and some apps to edit at least. Still WIP, hopefully more results soon.
ronger here with the G900W
step 7. Tap "notification_panel_active_app_list" -> select pencil icon on top to edit
when I open to edit I have nothing in value
but if I open the file "notification_panel_active_app_list_for_reset" i have all the values in there, also running a rom , not sure if it matters but its in my signature.
im trying to add Touch Sensitivity which i don't have in the shortcuts notification panel
edit
i was on the reset app list and not the active one
however after adding ;TouchSensitivity; and the end of the values , it still doesn't appear

I am rooted on an S5, using a different application called SQLite Manager, but go into applications, setting storage, and all I see is one folder called databases, and another called lib.
Any ideas?

Did you check in the folder called Databases?
Anyone know if it's possible to add Tasker shortcuts to the TouchWiz Quick Settings??
And Bonus points if you can assign your own icon for it?

Thank you for your reply. I did, and I think the settings.db file is there. But when I try to edit it, the program force closes. Using SQLite Manager. Not sure if it's a problem on my end or with the application.

Module to enhance the Recents Panel?

I personally really liked MIUI10's recents panel, and not a big fan of LOS's.
I'd like to have a "clear all" button that I can easily access (though, not at the top), and I feel like besides "lock" and "close" it might be useful to have () to get to app's info page (e.g. to clear cache) and a button to go to its AppOps or privacy guard.
Maybe someone knows of something similar already out there?

go to google play and download Recently by Chainfire. this will give you the close all button back. it will also shut down apps that have been running X amount of hours and you can limit it to only have X amount of apps displayed in recents.

That sounds interesting! I'm using Gravitybox for the clear all, but it places it at the top of the screen. Do you know if this moves it?

Question Task Changer/Manager Alternatives?

Coming from Oxygen, there's still a lot of visual stuff I dislike about One UI, though I will say, it's FAR better than the last Samsung I used which ran TouchWiz.
Running Nova and Theme Park to get things looking/running the way I generally prefer.
The one last piece that I really dislike but can't find a complete solution for is the Task Manager. I have Home Up running, but the part that annoys me is the Recent App shortcuts. They appear to be randomly generated, and the icons are horrific and cartoony. I just don't like it.
Is there an alternative or way to just turn the recent app shortcuts off? Screenshot attached for clarity.
Home up, task changer, disable "hide search bar"
Enter recents, three dots menu in search bar, settings, disable "show recommended apps"
Now you can hide search bar again

I actually discovered that RIGHT as I got a notification of your reply.
Big thanks for chiming in.
While I still generally think One UI < Oxygen, with enough tweaks, I can deal.
Question for you OP. How'd you get home up working while using Nova. None of the settings seem to stick when changing task manager using goodlock homeup when move is set to default.

there is a recent update to One UI Home that fixed that issue for me with lawnchair.
if youre not getting it through samsung, you can sideload it from here: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...rience-home-touchwiz-home-12-1-05-11-release/
you also may or may not have to update home up.

Thanks that worked! Looking clean now. I also hated the suggested apps at the bottom. I use a higher dpi and that was not affected by the dpi change. So it looked even worse on my phone. They looked huge compared to everything else.

Hi there
I was wondering if there is any way to apply the new homeup with the task changer on one ui 2.5 or any other good lock plugins for that matter
Samsung is only updating them for android 11 and was really hoping to get them on my phone
BTW I have a note 9 so no updates for me
