[Q] Customizing Profile Pic? - Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How is the tablet's user profile picture selected/changed? Under Settings-->Users, the settings dial for each user only allows customization of what info--not picture-- is displayed, and longpressing the user's profile tab causes Settings to force-close/crash.

I see: it's dependent on the user's google+ profile

[Q] App that adds apps to the notification bar

Hi guys I need a app that allows me to add apps to the notification bar. I also need it to be able to add a bookmark of my choice and launch the browser.
Does anybody know of one?
Notification Toggle will do Apps but I don't think it does shortcuts. I think Toggle Bar is another & I'm not sure of the shortcuts.
will tasker allow me to do this?
Yes, Tasker can do it. You can make a task to put an icon in the notification bar on reboot, and then make a task to open an app or a menu of apps when you click the icon.

Thats it! How can I do it? Can you tell me
You'll probably have to look at a tutorial and the User Guide at the Tasker site to understand, but it's pretty simple when you see what the setup screens in Tasker look like.
You need to make two new profiles in Tasker. To make a new profile, open Tasker and click New. A profile contains a context and a task.
For your first profile, choose the context Device Boot. Then add a task and add to it the action Notify with whatever icon and title you want.
For your second profile, choose the context Notification Click, and put the title from the Notify action in its Title field. Then add a task and open the task properties to change the task type to Menu. Then add to the task Load App actions and Browse URL actions to populate the menu.

Profiles are a way to save and restore audio profiles, with one tap put your phone on Silent, Vibrate, Loud, Sleep, or whatever you can imagine.
Schedules provide a way to apply your audio profiles by day and time. For example apply a Sleep profile every night before bed. Or a work profile before you arrive to work.
Quick will apply a profile for a short pre-determined time and then apply a different profile when that time is up. Useful for those quick meetings the boss surprises you with.
Exceptions are a great way to never miss a phone call or SMS message. Add a contact to exceptions and when they contact you a profile will apply just moments before so you don’t miss them.
Widgets and Shortcuts are a great way to access any part of Audio Control from your home screen. Apply a profile with only one click! There are lots of widget and shortcut options to choose from, so don’t miss out!

To add a custom background image to any Audio Control widget just create an image with the specified height, width, and name. Place the image inside the folder located on the sdcard called "Audio Control". If no image with the specified name is found inside the Audio Control folder the widget will use the default background. To revert back to the original widget background simply rename or delete the corresponding widget background inside the Audio Control folder.

Hey, this is Ron, thanks for a great app. I have an Epic 4G Touch and I made backgrounds to match the look of the power control widget. So, I've made some black translucent (70% opacity) widget backgrounds with more squared off corners than the stock Audio Control widgets. They look great with a dark or light theme and thought I'd share.
OP, I think you can remove the info for the Quick Widget since it's no longer needed.
The main mission in buying this app (for me) is to separate Notifications and Ringer in ICS. When I try to create a Profile that turns Notifications off, it automatically turns the ringer volume off as well. Is there a fix for this - or am I doing something wrong? Thanks!
UPDATE: The Dev just emailed me to let me know I needed to turn off "Link custom ringer and ringer mode." That fixed it. Great app!
To the OP and dev of this great app, I am on Jelly Bean and have both a "Quick" and "Quick 02:34" widget. What is the purpose of the Quick 02:34 widget or is it a bug?

"Quick" will open a screen with all the Quick Profiles. "Quick 02:34" will add a specific Quick as a shortcut. You can see http://www.mobiletrialware.com/audiocontrol/ for a complete tutorial.

Hidden Notification Log?

Hey Guys
I have Action Launcher installed on my Galaxy S8 (Running Oreo with Samsung Experience 9) and I found a shortcut widget to a notification log. Doing a quick Google search it seems like Samsung doesn't offer this feature natively. From what I can tell, you have to have Action Launcher installed in order to access the shortcut but I'll try to give as much detail as possible to recreate it with other means.
1. While in Action Launcher, long press and select widgets
2. Long press Activities (Should be at the top with the Action Launcher logo) and place it on your homescreen
3. The Activities page should open, scroll down to settings and expand it
4. Scroll a ways down to Notification Log and select it
5. There should now be a settings icon labeled Notification Log on homescreen
There are a bunch of other useful shortcuts in this Activities menu, they appear to be paths that exist in each app that lead to specific functions or menus. Some of them don't actually do anything if you set them as widgets.
Note: The text under Notification Log is:
.Settings$NotificationStationActivity
if that helps. I leave it to the far more capable community to describe what I've actually stumbled on.

You chose the wrong section. This is the section for mods and themes
My apologies, which thread would this be best fit for? (Just so I don't get it wrong)
