I seemed to have lost my auto-rotate toggle. I normally hate rotation, but when I watch a youtube video it is really handy to have a toggle on my home screen. I was removing bloatware, so I think that must have been how I did it, but for the life of me I don't remember deleting it. I searched the forums to see how I could get my toggle back, but I came up empty handed. Anybody want to help me out? Thanks!

I notice a lot that the widgets are very sensitive to touch. Often I'll try scrolling one or pushing something and it "peels off" the widget like I'm trying to move it around on the screen.
This is very frustrating. Is there any way that I can lock them down so they can be used but not moved? Any apps for this? If not, there should be.
Yes we need this!!!!
I haven't been able to find such an app, nor a setting on my phone.
However ..... You can go into accessibility an change the hold delay from short to long.. which should prevent most accidents..
I went ahead and went back to stock 4.1.2, rooted and trwp just in case. In any case coming from CM10, which allows me to adjust anything, this rom sucks. My main problem is the top down slide down menu with all the icons to turn on wifi, bluetooth, etc. I want to get rid of some of those and just have wifi, airplane, gps, and screen rotation, I don't need the rest but for the life of me I can't figure out how to get rid of them or adjust that bar. Any help would be appreciated. The second thing is the notification area get's filled up too quickly, especially when mails come in. I just want sms/mms notifications there and no mail notifications , an indicator of new mail on the top bar is sufficient. Thanks a bunch...

Since you're rooted, you can get Xposed Framework to get most/all your customizations, including your toggles.
You should be able to stop individual apps from posting notifications in the app info settings. I think that came around in 4.1, hopefully Samsung/AT&T/Rogers didn't disable that for whatever reason. If I understand you correctly, though, you don't want any email notification in the shade but you still want something in the bar? Not sure how to go about that, but you can always get a launcher with an unread count that shows up on the email icon.
I have a first world problem: When I'm on a call and want to access the notification bar, my screen turns off--I think because the light sensor is effected by my hand.
Use case: I'm on a call, realize I want to switch to Bluetooth, and want to go to the notification bar to access settings or click on the bluetooth tile, but the screen goes dark. So, I have to put the phone down, and carefully access the bar making sure my hand doesn't get in the way. Is there a way to get around this?
UPDATE: I just got an answer from someone else off this board: While on a call, press the "home" button/icon that takes you to your launcher and then access the Notification bar--the screen will then stay on without a problem.

I just posted a fix to my original post, above.
Alternately... You could install a launcher with gesture setting as to double tap in the home screen to toggle/expand notification bar.. So you don't have to get your fingers near the top at all... Cheers

Hi everyone,
I've been having a problem with the notification bar not displaying the quick toggles. They're still there. You put your finger on the spot and whatever toggle is there will activate or deactivate, you just can't see it. Needless to say, it's very annoying and I don't know the cause of it. I'm rooted, updated to may patch. I tried back tracking to see if I hit any switches but nothing. I did everything shy of factory resetting. Check the screenshot. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Found out what the problem was. It was with the app shortcutter. Toggling the "reflow pull down animation" button caused it to disappear.
I just got a Zenfone 6 and mostly like it so far, but I'm running into a really annoying UI issue that I've not been able to find any info on.
When I'm using the phone in landscape mode and drag down from the top, the quick toggle pane dominates the view and won't minimize, leaving a tiny sliver of space to view notifications that's smaller than even a single notification.
I've attached a screenshot of what this looks like, is anyone else having this issue? Have you found a setting to fix this?
Yeah, I've got this, I notice it when I put it my holder in the car.
Does seem strange & completely unnecessary so hope there's a solution within the current settings somewhere......
