Has anyone seen or is aware of a function on stock ROM called Flicker? If you check out the CQA.apk, when performing a display test, there is a function called Flicker. When you swipe the screen upwards from the bottom of screen it hides the virtual navigation bar, and the same action makes it reappear. If this is a native function built into the system, would it be available to be used at will when using other applications? It would be great to hide the nav bar whenever you want, to open up screen space, with a simple swipe. It would be nice if a dev with knowledge of compiling could check into this and see if it's a function that can be enabled within the system and not only for the CQA test app (which if I'm not mistaken is for engineers of the Q to test functionality of all hardware on system).

In CM10 you can use 'Expanded desktop' option from power menu (the menu displayed after you hold down the power button) to hide/unhide the virtual navigation bar.
Just make sure that the 'Expanded desktop' item is enabled under Settings>System>Power menu.

Unfortunately I wish to remain stock and still mod my system, no need for cm10 until cdma is functional on it...is there a way to enable that same function on asa14? And still, has anyone heard of "Flicker!?

Moto Q stock with Arrrghhh's kernel v.0.10
On the 4.2.2 SlimBean ROM, there was a feature to use the physical button lights as a notification feature when you received a text or missed a phone call, but the current ROM doesn't include it anymore. Is there an app or xposed module that would enable this again?

Assuming you're referring to BLN. The kernel you're using has to support it.

Hi Guys, I'm a long time android user, but this is my first pure AOSP, I've been on various CM roms for quite a while.
I was pretty surprised to see that I can't find a custom quick settings option (ie change how the quick settings buttons work)....
- Why would you ever have bluetooth and wifi tiles launch settings menus, rather than just toggle bluetooth / wifi on/off - really silly default option..
- would love to be able to add a torch, screen timeout & screen rotation lock tiles...
My question, is there any way to get this sort of functionality without going to a custom rom - still using the quick tiles? or is it just a matter of me not being so impatient and waiting for CM or similar to be released..
Love the idea of being able to get OTA updates.. and really to be honest, the only thing I am really missing from CM is the ability to modify the quick tiles..

If you long press a tile, it toggles that setting on off.

Awesome, thanks, at least makes bluetooth and wifi toggles more practical..
So I take it that adding extra tiles (ie say screen rotation for example) , is not an option in AOSP?

Not that I remember, it's an added feature to ROMs.
It's good to know I am not the only one feeling this one.
I was a bit shocked to see how little options there are for customization in the stock rom.
I guess I am spoiled by CyanogenMod....

Checkout widgetzoid. It is what I use for this functionality.

Here is a screen shot, very customizable and the bolt to the right is like torch.

If you want rotation lock in quick settings you have to modify SystemUI.apk and framework2.jar. If you were using stock you'd have to modify those, but using AOSP means you can just change a few lines of code and recompile.
If you want to know the exact parts to modify let me know.

Cataclysm Rom has customizable quick settings
Root and Xposed Framework
I had the same frustration as you. Root your Nexus, Download Xposed framework the Gravity Box for KitKat module and you can add toggles and change other stuff if you want. Its perfect for customizing your stock os.
Id recommend make a nandroid backup and save it. I dont know if it effects your phone when you get an OTA update. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALL THIS I love my Nexus now
Hi guys,
Can someone please tell me how to turn off haptic feedback when typing on Nexus 5 with Android 5.
I have looked everywhere but can't find the setting.
Thanks.

Try looking in Sounds & Notifications then other sounds. You can turn off vibrate on touch in there. Or look in languages under google keyboard then preferences

In addition to this, go to sounds and notification look it up if you can see a vibration option
If you have a custom Rom or a custom kernel that has a vibration strength feature this can help by fully minimizing it to 0%
Look also on Languages and check your English Keyboard(US) or whatever keyboard you are using and turn off the vibrations option there
hope this helped
Hi Team,
I'm using Lollipop 5.01, franco kernel on my N5. I would like to make Go Keyboard as default keyboard. However when i do so, after some time it reverts back to google keyboard. I have to manually again put it as default. If I remove google keyboard , then Language and keyboard under settings FC. Is there a way to edit build.prop or some setting to make Go Keyboard as default?
regards
Hitesh
Keyboard default reverting is a ROM/keyboard issue.
