Android settings and TNT settings? - G Tablet General

Anyway to have both setting applications at once in our gtablet. I see when we pull up the setting, the stock viewsonic tnt setting comes up. Which is limited imo. Anyway to have another icon like "settings 2" to load up the stock android settings?
Or anyway to start it up without having to replace nd roll back the settings app?

Can't add widget, odd widget menu

I tried to add a widget today and for some reason a new widget menu popped up and I can't seem to add a widget anymore. I can scroll through the widgets but selecting the widget does nothing. I've tried switching different launchers (stock and adw launcher ex) but the same widget menu keeps popping up.
I press and hold the screen to get the regular menu pop up which looks normal, but when I select widgets, I get the screen in the attached screenshot. Has anyone had this issue before? I'm running tnt lite 4.2.4. It was also an issue on tnt lite 4.2.3 and not sure if its related to the ROM.
And it's fixed. I just realized I replaced the TNT Settings with the stock android Settings recently and that's what brought that menu up. Restoring the TNT Settings seems to have fixed it.

Good find. Was halfway through a wipe and reinstall before I realized it was a lame brain mistake I could have fixed in 3.5 seconds. Good learning experience though

VZW Messaging App Help needed, under Settings > Notifications menu item missing

I rooted my Verizon SGS3 a few days ago. Before rooting, I remember it was bugging me that it wouldn't vibrate for incoming txt msgs, whether in normal, vibe mode or silent mode. Then I found out I had to go to the messaging app settings, and under "Notifications" on the bottom there was an option to enable vibration for messages, "always", "only on silent" and "never". After I rooted, I never checked that again since it worked fine and I had vibration notification for messages. After root though, I did a few other things, among those disabled constant wifi notification with SQLite, turned of the wifi pop-up, installed volume+ to increase volume (which also added "music effects" under sound settings), and patched "audio_effects" (/system/etc) from inside root tools in volume+ (didn't backup original audio_effects file though).
Anyway, I just went back into messaging settings to change something else, and noticed under "Notifications" in the stock messaging app, there is no longer any option to change vibration settings. Is that something that is missing because of something different in the root /system partition (I used a fully STOCK root image by the way, then removed things on my own), or is it because of something I did after rooting? I just never checked under messaging settings immediately after root, so I don't know what exactly caused it.
If anyone has a stock rooted, or stock unrooted Verizon SGS3, please go to the main page in messaging, hit the menu button and go to settings, scroll all the way down, and post here what "Notification" options you have. I only have "Notification" with a checkmark, and "Select ringtone", I know there were more options before. If somehow I'm mistaking, would the vibration notification option for messaging be somewhere else?
Thank you
I have it in the Messaging settings page under Notifications "Vibrate". Make sure that you are in the messages list window where it shows all of your messages, and not viewing an individual thread.
Yes, I am in the main messaging window that shows a list of threads, not in any specific thread. That's the only window that gives you the "Settings" option with the menu button. I knew it used to be there.
So you have 3 options: "Notification", "Ringtone" and "Vibration"?
I just went back to the original Nandroid backup I made immediately after root, and vibrations is not available there either, so rooting must have somehow removed that option from settings.
Are you rooted or stock unrooted?
Thank you

Camera custom settings, change name?

When you're in the Pro mode in the camera application, you have the option of saving the settings your using, but i can't find a place to edit the name of the saved setting, is that even possible? Would be nice to call the settings something else beside Custom 1/2/3...

Accessing the 'Standard' Lollipop settings menu

Hi all,
When I open the settings on my lollipop device I seem to get a cut down version of the settings options (Menu's and menu options are missing, like accessibility, advanced audio setting, etc)
I know these options can be accessed because I somehow managed to get to the advanced audio settings using nova launcher (I cant remember how)
Is there an app or something like that I can download to open the standard setting app?
Thanks.

rom wishlist

i don't know if this belongs in here i read the rules and didn't find anything that said it doesn't so i will try
heres a wishlist for my ideal rom
1.i want to get rid of the entire google section from the settingspanel and put it under accounts i find it really uncomfortable to have the google branding in my settings panel i want it all to act like any other account where settings go under account, if no google account is logged into then theres no google settings
2.i want to get rid of the entire accessability section from the settingspanel and move just the accessability app function under system so apps that require it can still work i also want blutooth settings and wifi settings combined into one all connectivity settings under one section not two different ones
3.i want to port sonys xreality Engine including the settings such as ultra vivid mode under screen settings as this is something i find extremely valueble it makes the lcd on my xz1 beat the oled of my s7 edge, i believe this is by far the best screen preset funciton on Android so it could go under screen presets simple as that
4.i want the rom to be as Clean as possible, i want to choose not to have it come preloaded with a calendar app or phone app or anything like that that can be downloaded off the playstore, any app function such as Contacts that can be downloaded from the playstore i don't want any of it preloaded, so as bloatware free as possible, i am not sure how to work that with no launcher coming preloaded though
5. i want the playstore renamed to just store or software manager or software center and with a regular store Icon, basically i want to get rid of any and all google branding from the rom, the rom would ofcourse have google functions as otherwise it wouldn't work but visually i don't want to see any branding of any kind that includes the name "trebuchet" for the preloaded launcher i'd prefer just "launcher"
6.not important but i want greenify implemented as standard battery saver functions rather than something you download afterwards i also want doze to be put under battery and wellbeing to be put under screen settings, i noticed these are in the main settings panel, i also want the setting to doze gms to be implemented in the battery settings panel so you don't need magisk for that i also want doze and greenify to be merged into one or just take all greenify functions and put it under doze
7. i'd love for magisk to be implemented too under system settings so theres no magisk app you access settings under system not through an app
8.i'd love screen width to be impemented under screen settings so you don't need to go under developer settings just to change screen dpi, i would also love usb debugging to be taken out of developer settings and be put under connected devices section or in my case connectivity settings
9. i noticed that most of the settings under google settings don't even have to exist so they could be seperated throughout the panel like screencast can be put under display settings, nearby could be under connectivity settings, backup would ofcourse be under system and search would also be under system, location settings could be under connectivity, configure nearby device under connectivity
10.get rid of any "no simcard" warning from the rom as well as any carrier branding i don't want to know it, i think everyone is aware if they have no sim or not in their phone, maybe show a warning when trying to go online that no simcard has been detected and notifying the user to use wifi.
this is ofcourse just a wishlist i do understand if magisk or greenify can't be implemented in a rom but it is a wishlist.
