[Q] Extended power menu on Mate 7?

Hi everyone,
would one of you happen to know whether it's possible to get extended power menu options on the Mate 7, such as soft reboot, reboot to recovery, etc.? Is it possible with Gravity Box KK? I tried tweaking the UI with GB (latest version) on Xposed 2.5.1, but had no success.
Thx!

I think there is no need for that. Just install Quickboot (reboot) if you are rooted.

Thanks, that does the trick! Added a shortcut in my PowerToggle widget.

You can move icons about you don't need to expand..

Yes, but those two don't really have a purpose as the functions are also accessible via the power menu, and there is no soft reboot option either. I'm using SimpleReboot now, it does exactly what I want.

OK I did a clean install and Networks and Tethering still crashes with 'Unfortunately, Settings has stopped'.
ROM is D83820C_TWN_Pure. GravityBox(LP) seems to work fine, but I need VPN and tethering.
Interestingly even though Network and Tethering Settings crashes, I can use shortcuts to access VPN and Tethering so I'm quite happily using Xposed now

this may sound silly but how you create shortcuts to access VPN and Tethering?

You need to use a launcher that supports shortcuts. Add shortcut to home screen and select settings then the shortcut you want

To remove the FCs, all I did was clear the cache and dalvik. Make sure to remove your lock screen first. Makes getting pass the initial FCs a lot easier.

GAPPS on Galaxy S7 SM-G9300

Hello, I bought a Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G9300 that does not include google services and its applications and I would like very much to be able to have them installed on my phone. Is there any way to do this? I have already tried to install the package from OpenGapps and it does not work. Thank you very much in advance!!!

I have got same problem. I have rooted my phone and install TWRP, so can I replace firmware with G930T?

See this thread. What people are doing with the Edge 9350 seem to be applicable to the 9300. I'd bet there are more info on Chinese forums if you can make out what is what.

Thank you.
I spent more time in chinese forum, now I have only rooted G9300, but still I can not run google play services. I tried flash G930TUVU2APC8_TMB2APC8_TMB_USA_T-Mobile_6.0.1 official firmware to my G9300 but it didn't successed because of different PIT file (g930T has bigger system partition then g9300). At this point, resizing g9300 partition can be possible?

Ok, now all of Google services are working on my G9300. The all steps and necessary files are below.
1- install CROM _V1.0.4.apk and run for unlock the bootloader.
2-install Samsung-Usb-Driver-v1.5.59.0.
3-install Odin3_v3.10.7
4-flash G9300-PC9-Auto-Root-0403_3 with odin.
5-wipe data partition in TWRP
6-install open_gapps-arm64-6.0-pico-20160329 in TWRP.

If you already download all files from link (you have to put https at beginning of the link ) you have to follow the all instructions step by step. Before of all you have to unlock your bootloader by using CROM (just download apk, install and run). Copy open_gapps-arm64-6.0-pico-20160329 file to phone's SD card or internal storage. At odin stage, press AP button and select G9300-PC9-Auto-Root-0403_3 file. In Odin options only Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time box have been checked. For enter download mode press power + home + volume down buttons until you see the download screen on the phone. Just press start button and wait 10 seconds in odin, then your device will be reboot in recovery mode (you will see TWRP screen in chinese). First time when device in recovery, root process will be done. Then press install button and select open_gapss from SD card or internal storage. Confirm to install and reboot system. you will see google account manager while booting system. Sorry, my english is not well.

Hi, thanks for the instruction. One question, does this root method mess up the front camera? I heard people not being able to take multiple photos with the front camera after rooting their SM-G9300.
Other people have reported issues with phone not recognizing SD card after rooting, and not being able to play video files after rooting. I am not sure if these are false negatives. Have you experienced any problem after rooting your SM-G9300?

I have only front camera issue. There is no SD or player issue.

Good to know. Thank you!
Someone suggested that the front camera issue can be solved by using a third-party camera app, not the Samsung native app. Maybe you can try that.
One more question, after rooting the phone, can I uninstall some of the bloatware apps such as the Samsung and Baidu stuffs that I never use? If so, how do I go about to do that? I have flashed Customized ROMs on android phones before but other than that I have little experience with rooting.
I am now very tempted to root my phone, as I really need Google Apps...

Yes, you can uninstall everything with system app remover application which you can download playstore.

After you successfully install play store in your phone, you could see '咪咕阅读' popped up in your update list. DON'T UPDATE THIS APP EVER.
I suppose this app should be implemented in system level with wrong configuration. Even you didn't install it before, it would be in your installation list.
Stop auto-update first and never install this app. I figure this out after 6 times factory resetting.

It looks like ill have to factory reset again and uninstall that app, but then which app is responsible for making the phone not being able to install any app?

咪咕阅读 it's this app. Even though you delete it, it will pop up in your update list in Google play store again. So disable auto update first and don't update this app ever.

how to add second account to google play?
there is no add accounts button in google play
when I installed google play games, I cant open the app because there a message to allow permission for google play services, like contact etc.
I click ok button then redriect to permission setting, but there are no options to allow like other apps. anyone facing this issue?

After install with "GoGoogle install.apk" and differents sync errors I decided to do "Wipes" from TWRP Recovery and actually work perfect and "Play Store" left me install "Big Games" Like PUBG (more than 2GB), etc..
You need do the next steps.
- Enter in TWRP Recovery mode (restart with press and hold volumen up).
- IF YOU HAVE PIN, WRITE THERE TO UNLOCK TWRP
- Follow the pictures.
* REMEMBER WITH "WIPE DATA" YOU WILL LOSE ALL PERSONAL INFORMATION

Hi Guys,
Tried this method and... maybe I have missed a step, but after I installed from the Go file and got the three green dots, I have nowhere a Play Store or whatsoever...
Is there something else to do after thios has been done ?
If so, could you be more explicit about what's to be done ?
Regards.
