I would like to add some "tiles" to the Quick Settings pull down "shade" in the upper right corner. I'm on JB 4.21, the one just released for us.
Some sites show the shade having a 'setting' icon in the shade's upper right corner. However, when I go to my tablet, the shade does not have any such icon. The "Settings" tile sends me to the normal Settings screen.
Is there a way to add to or remove tiles to this Quick Settings shade? I know there are apps that might do the same. But I was puzzled why some devices with this JB version has the Quick Settings setup icon for itself, and others do not.
Thanks for any help.

Looking for a theme (or setting) that allows you to pull down your status bar while it is hidden. I currently have my status bar hidden, but I must open up an app in order to pull it down.
I couldn't find a thread for this idea. I apologize if I am doubling up on threads if one exists. Anyone have any suggestions for me? Thanks in advance.
Launcher Pro (and I believe a few other homescreen apps) allow you to assign a button to show the status bar (or notification panel). I have it set so that the home button shows my notifications.
Best of luck!
ADW can set this on swipe up/swipe down so that you would swipe down just as if the Status Bar was there even though it isn't.
Thanks for the responses. I've tried both and now have to decide which one I like more. haha
Anyone know if there's a way to expand the notification window? Or reduce the size of all the quick settings buttons? When I tap the lower-right corner to expand the notification window and see my notifications, 100% of the notifications are hidden below the bar (because the time, date, wifi status, battery status, quick setting buttons, brightness setting, and 'settings' item fill the entire window), which means I always have to swipe-scroll-up to see what notifications are waiting if any. Kind of awkward and doesn't seem at all what Google intended.
If the window notification window opened further (to a greater height on the screen), or the some of the settings could be collapsed (the clock?), it'd solve the problem...
Hi,
I am a bit confused about these. They seem to be related but all different things. Could anyone point me to what they are and how they are used?
Thanks
Quick settings is panel accessible from the notification drawer containing tiles (toggles) which control some system settings (wifi,gps,bt..)
Quick access ribbon is a row of controls (system settings like above) you see on top when opening the notification drawer (e.g. sliding from top to bottom)
I see. So I have is Quick Settings (toggles) and Notification. I've not seen quick access ribbon though.
I have both of them in the lower right corner. Above the notifications, there is an row with a single icon which looks like many lines and a ",' following it. I don't see ribbon of toggles. Any way to enable them?
Thanks
I'm using CarbonRom based on CyanogenMod 10.2 (Android 4.3) and I found it in the statusbar settings:
Settings -> Statusbar -> Quick Settings -> Quick Access Ribbon
I did find it. However, when I run in Tablet UI with notification, quick access settings all in the lower right corner, I don't see quick access ribbon. Instead, I see the attached image.
Any clue on why? Thanks

Which rom are you using? Maybe that feature has been implemented yet in your device rom
I have PAC-man 4.3, which has CM 10.2
The ribbon is there in the stock UI mode. When I use tablet UI, when notification and quick settings are both in the lower right corner, the ribbon turns into that icon as in my previous attached image.
Oh I see, it must be just a bug then
I know I have seen the option in other ROM's to set if the right or left side pulls down just the notifications and then a second pull opens the settings, or if you pull down on the right side it will pull right to the settings shade. Is there any way to disable this or set it to the left side in Oxygen OS? Every time i pull down the shade on the right side it goes right past the notifications and into the settings shade and requires a swipe up to see the notifications.
Good day.
I have recently upgraded my S7 to Nougat and i'm still getting used to the new interface.
Could anyone tell me if it is possible to change the number of items on the left in the status bar before it puts the ... simbol?
Example in the attached pic.
Thank you.
I don't think it's an option, but this is really cool and easy. Instead of having slot of icons you can just swipe down the notifications panel.

Thank you for the reply.
Maybe i have explained wrong.
My problem is that i have a traffic monitor with an icon that says the download speed, but because of the other icons, it disappears.
status bar
Yes you can either display all notification icon or just 1st three.
1. go to settings.
2. go to display
3. towards the bottom you will see "status bar" its after AOD, and led indicator.
- there are two settings 1. show only 3 recent followed by "..." and battery.
- you can turn it off or on from there. if off then all icons for notifications should pop up.
