These 2 strings won't work on our O3D "mot." says it's for motorola maybe replacing "mot" with "lge" will make them work.
BTW "mot" is shortcut from motorola...

Resolved the problem

Try wiping your device. Turn off phone then press and hold voll down and power. When u see lg logo release buttons and wipe data, cache.
Or try LGmobileSupportTool and emergency recovery

The ne im using is open root explorer and copy SystemUI.apk to your sdcard
2.Connect the phone to the computer and copy the SystemUI.apk to the extracted APKTOOL directory (download apktoolApktool.zip)
3.There is a guide on how to use apktool here :Guide apktool
4.Decompile SystemUI.apk
5.Navigate \SystemUI\res\values and open dimens.xml (use notepad ++)
6. Find self_expand_velocity, self collapse velocity. and change the values from the defalut +2000 per each.
7.You can change other values too, they are pretty much selfexplanatory.
8.After the necessary changes save the file and recompile systemui.apk
9.After recmpiling you can push it to system using ADB or i made a .zip to flash it in recovery.(Just put SystemUI.apk in system/app and you are ok) Just whatch out for the name as it should be exactly the ssame as it was before.

I decompiled systemui.apk but i can/t find \SystemUI\res\values

I have the same question. maybe your decompilation have some problems.
Sent from my lenovo A789 using xda app-developers app

Got it working... FINALLY
OK first of all thanks for this, makes a huge difference on the notification pullup and dropdown speed.
I couldn't apply the path with just the regular apktool, tried different revisions and none worked until I found apktoolsjb on this forum

it is in that folder for sure. have followed the guide step by step? maybe u havent decompiled just extracted the apk.

On Note 2 (and probably other Samsung devices) there is no layout.xml, but values are inside smali file (SystemUI\smali\com\android\systemui\R$layout.smali). However those are in hex format which I cannot decode.
.field public static final self_collapse_velocity:I = 0x7f0c001c
.field public static final self_expand_velocity:I = 0x7f0c001b
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Above value translates to 2131492892 as integer, which makes zero sense. Probably some kind of float value?

Try to check for that id (0x7f0c001c and/or 0x7f0c001b) in res/values/ids.xml. It could point to any value in any of the xml inside res/ folder.

No xml file contains those values (I ran search over whole folder). Only before mentioned R$layout.smali and com\android\systemui\statusbar\phone\PhoneStatusBar.smali

Linux
Any way I con do this in Linux, ubuntu to be specific.
I figured it out, Ijust hope I can put back into .apk format.

Be careful:
"dp" was actually called "dip" in early versions of the SDK. They changed it to "dp" shortly after.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That screenshot isn't from a 4.1/4.2 rom - So anyone who wants to try this and has 4.2 (I'm having 4.2.2), change only the values. leave the "dp" as is, don't change it into "dip".
OP - you might as well write this down!

Great, some developer with Xposed skills to do that through an Xposed module .... (You know that would be great)

I used your MOD as an Add On for my ROM. I hope thats ok credit was given (see bottom of OP). Thanks for the Info..

Check your ROM if it is odex, check /system/app/ if there is SystemUI.odex. You need to deodexed if first so you can edit. However you can also di it using baksmali you just need the SystemUI.odex.

I used Root Explorer to edit the build.prop's last line.
Default density was 210, I changed it to 188.
Remember, latest Kernel patch restores Original Density.
So, If you want, I can give you step by step instructions.

Sent From The Phone That Can™

Density Changed
I Have also dialer problem.. so please help step by step how to changed density...

Dude, for gallery and music items to show, you have to wait for a while.
And regarding density, follow these steps:
1.Download and Install Root Explorer Or your favorite app which can access system files.
2. Go to Root/System and Mount it R/W (Rewritable)
3. Open build.prop file using text editor.
4.Scroll to last line of the file, if there is a line like 'ro.sf.lcd_density=<value>' then alter '<value>' to your suitable DPI (I'm Using 188 DPI). If there is no line like above, then simply add one.
5. Save the file and 'Normal Reboot' your handset.
6.Voila!
Or, You can download ROM toolbox and use the build.prop editor to do the same!!

[MOD] Quicksettings 5/4 Columns/[Mod]Change Icon Size

I found a Trick/Mod for 5 or 4 Rows in Quick Settings,i use 5 Rows look the Pic in Attachment
Requirement:
Rooted Phone
Root Explorer installed (Root Exlorer or ES File Manager)
Go in System and open the Build.prop
Search the Lines
Original:
ro.config.toolbox_port_column=4
ro.config.toolbox_port_row=3
ro.config.toolbox_land_column=4
ro.config.toolbox_land_row=3
I changed to (in Red)
ro.config.toolbox_port_column=5
ro.config.toolbox_port_row= NothingU can use 3-5 or more,just try
ro.config.toolbox_land_column=5
ro.config.toolbox_land_row= Nothing can use 3-5 or more,just try
and save it.
Check that the permissions to rw-r-r
Reboot
The Result is in the Pic to see.
the first two pictures 5 Columns,Pic 3 and 4 with 4 Columns
When Colum on 5 and Row 4you can see all the links/Quick Settings Icons,see the last pic
Tested with Android 6.0 B209.
I do not know if it works with 5.1.1.

Change the Icon Size
Go in System,open Build.prop
search the Line
Original:
ro.config.app_big_icon_size=161
change to (in Red)
ro.config.app_big_icon_size=128
Save (Permission rw-r-r) and Reboot.
I like smaller icons and have 128,you can play with it.
See the Pic in Attachment

Thanks. This is really useful.
Now I just wish there was a way to edit the shortcuts on Quick settings.

is there a code to remove icon names on the toggles? and make it smaller with affecting the icons on the homescreen? thanks

I don't know to remove toggles.
You can make the Icons smaller in Build.Prop
Search the Line:
ro.config.app_big_icon_size=164
And change the last three numbers.
I use 128.
Don't forget the Permissions to rw-r-r
and reboot.
You have smaller Icons

Changing columns and rows and also icon size adjustment can be found at K Settings

Yes, it's in Notification Settings / Change statusbar toolbox showmode.5 columns is ok. With port to 6 columns in port I get overlapping on some text.
