Brightness and volume slider D850

I noticed on the Att model they removed the brightness and volume sliders from the drip down menu
Is there a way to flash the system file to add it back in? There isn't an option for it in the G3 tweak box.

I came here to ask this same thing...why would they remove a feature that we could toggle on and off?

I had it on my F400S and I was surprised that it was removed, and call recording but the ladder was easily fixed .

In G3 Tweaksbox you can enable the status bar brightness slider under Theme > Status Bar > Enable Status Bar sliding (@ bottom of menu)
Note this isn't a slider in the drop down. You touch the status bar without dragging down and slide to change brightness.

I don't have that drag status bar to change brightness functionality on my d850.

I have the icon I can talk that has preset increments but I like to manually slide it sometimes rather than going into the settings.

They might have done this to fix the Chromecast System UI crash

I know it's not as simple, but if you long press on any of the toggles it brings you right to their settings. In the brightness slider case, display settings. Just in case people don't use tweaksbox.

I know, but thats more of a hassle, and I would rather have the slider. Maybe tweaks box will have that feature added to it.

As stated above, only way to get this functionality (somewhat) is to use G3 Tweakbox Xposed module on rooted phone. However this module only gives you ability to change brightness while sliding/dragging your finger on notification bar. Its not what you are looking for but serves the purpose just fine.
However I forgot if this option was enabled in free version of G3 Tweakbox or not. You would have to check yourself since I have already unlocked the premium version so can't go back to verify.

Yes, it is usable in the free version of TweaksBox.

if someone could pull the SystemUI.apk from the Korean variant and then drop your SystemUI.apk, it can be modded in...
this is partially what xda is here for.

Holy cow....ATT and their typical bull****. First the bloatware now this.
It makes absolutely no sense for them to remove such a useful feature. This reminds me of when ATT removed the mobile data toggle on the S4.
Either way, I hope someone will figure out how to add this feature back.

Did you guys try to tap the edit icon in the list of icons in the status bar? In there you can select the toggles you want in the status bar as well as enable volume and brightness Sliders.

As lennyuk said earlier, it might have something to do with Chromecast not working because of these sliders in the dropdown menu (some say so)

Yeah I realized that after some digging around. But still, I hope someone creates a mod that can add the codes back.

It's not there, I had a F400S so I remember where it was but here is a screenshot for those who still think it's there on the D850.

I requested the brightness slider to be added in the G3 Tweaks box and its there now. Didn't ask to have the volume slider added in though. Go to the thread for the app and request to have it added in.

Be a good person, But don't try to prove.

you're very helpful,tnx

I've not seen any mods. Best thing you can do is get an app that puts a separate % icon in status bar.

No, we can't! I tried! I went back to the previous version 5.2! These navegation bars on screen really makes me nervous! Burn-in is a matter of time! I honestly did not like their response!

Any launcher able to do this anymore?

mine just auto updated when I was reading this thread. lol ..
how can you switch back to 5.2 ? I downloaded from apkmirror but cannot install. need to uninstall first?
I can see that when in nova/home, the dot for show/hide navbar is gone, and navbar will always show.
but in other apps, it will follow hide/show setting and dot is there.

There's 2 ways
Native settings in display, and finding a theme that does transparent bars
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

I'm using Nova Launcher Prime 5.3 too and my navbar is still transparent on homescreen.
In addition i can hide navbar too with the dots, so i don't know what's your problem at all.
Its working like all the time before.

It's transparent but there isn't any point to hide.
I don't hide that anyway so no problem for me

You have to activate the point in navbar settings first.. i have the point and hide is working fine..
EDIT: okay, you're right, point is only visible in apps and settings, not on homescreen itself.
Good that i don't need it

The dot is working in the apps, but not in the homescreen anymore. Just updated Nova.

Suggest you *ALL* contact the dev, and leave negative reviews on the app store or youll be stuck with it like that forever. It is sheer stupidity. Most people use nova for the customisation, removing the ability to do this is pretty stupid.

2 other ideas
1, does anyone know a transparent dark theme that would take care of this problem
2, any other launcher with this much power that would keep doing this

Can use adb to hide navbar even in nova launcher.

Send me a print of your home screen please!

Guys we are talking about the navbar on home screen, okay? I see that it works in apps and settings! Yes. I know the navbar can be transparent. But the discussion is not about it! Burn-in is alive and I want to avoid the problem!
