Today morning, on my S6 edge, I've noticed the same issue. There are 3 icons which are missing. You are not the only one. Seems like with the samsung update has triggered something.

Ok i was unaware i updated

i wasn't aware of any update either. that is very unusual. i wont get any updates til monday as i do not have wifi at home and there is none nearby either.
Thanks SAMSUNG!!

So wtf is going on?

The Mobile Hotspot has also disappeared.... wtf

My fathers s6 edge also lost several icons in the quick settings bar today. One of them was mobile data toggle. very frustrating that they issue a silent update that can cause these things.

Same problem here

Ditto same problem here

Are you saying that uninstalling the app "speedtest" fixed this problem for you?

* Toggle Mobile Data / Mobile Data *
People,
As everyone knows the rom XtreStoLite presents itself as the best ever modulated rom to S6.
However, ALLEGEDLY, adding Tweak to improve the ram in build.prop, it seems that the Mobile Data Toggle, found in the notifications panel disappeared.
So to add it again you must have SQLite and codes.
# STEP BY STEP #
Download SQLite Editor, go and give PERMISSION SUPERUSER the SuperSU.
Then, navigate to:
Settings Storage>
Settings.db>
System>
LOOK FOR:
notification_panel_active_app_list
(Please note: there is active_app_list, CITED ABOVE and active_app_list_for_reset, THE ISSUE IS THE ABOVE MENTIONED, active_app_list)
Entering the "notification_panel_active_app_list"
Paste this:
Wifi;SilentMode;DormantMode;AutoRotate;MobileData;WiFiHotspot;TorchLight;PersonalMode;Sync;AirplaneMode;MultiWindow;SmartStay;AirGesture;SmartPause;SmartScroll;TouchSensitivity;PowerSaving;UltraPowerSaving;NetworkBooster;Bluetooth;Location;
===== ====== NOTE
The above is without Toggles: Nfc AllShareCast (sharing), not the use. If you want to change, just replace the ones you want by: Nfc or AllShareCast, just like any other. RESPECTING;

There is very few icons on the s6 compared to my s5.

Same problem here data toogle disappear, i don't modify anythings.!!!!!!!
edit: galaxy tools.apk and active all toogles.thanks to Thoth33

it's not only the mobile data toggle...there is 3-4 toggles missing, maybe you don't use these toggles that you didn't notice them disappear...

Surprised to see so many have been troubled by the bug. I have lost data icon too.

Hiya,
I'm bagofbits and new to these forum's and was not sure how to contact anyone at XDA so after some after advice from LUFC (forum moderator) here is my situation.
I have a wildfire s and been viewing those forums, during the last couple of days since the change over from android market to google playground or whatever it's called these days, I've been getting a popup app in my status bar saying please download 'battery supercharger' . I've been just clearing my status bar but it just kept coming back.
Today by mistake i downloaded it and got loads of texts within minutes and ended up with a charge of £4.99, I text 'STOP' to the number given. My network provider(3) can't help and I've mailed google help about it and they have logged it and are getting back to me.
Also a number of post's on the web about it...
Anyway enough rambling, I've searched the wildfire s forum and can't see any mention of it, just thought that it would be useful to post something about it so nobody else falls victim to this.
Give me a thanks if u could please.
Cheers
Oh might be an idea to check recent downloads you have made that contain ad's that may harbor this scam.

The ad you saw in your status bar used ad over the air function.
There are some apps which will detect apps using the add. Method. And will give you the ability to uninstall it.

Unfortunately this is true, you have not stopped the messages - just confirmed to the spammers that the number is live and real. 3 may be able to help you by blacklisting the numbers you are getting messages from - also have a look here if the messages persist.
This is a problem that is by no means limited to the Wildfire S - recently I recognised an app on my friend's Samsung Galaxy Ace as being malware - it was also generating notifications about some kind of battery optimizer. I managed to remove it before she accidentally signed up to anything.
Regarding the app, try some apps like Lookout Mobile Security and BitDefender . If you run a scan with these, they may find the offending app and help you to remove it. Good luck!
solution to battery supercharger text costs
saw the two text messages yesterday, spoke to Vodafone told them to block any charges today, up to which time charges hadn't gone through. So hopefully this will cost me nothing.
even if they had placed the charge, I would have asked Vodafone not to pay it, and kicked up a fuss until the agreed not to do so, or carry the cost themselves. Anybody with a mobile phone contract is in a very strong position at the moment I have noticed, getting lots of freebies off them.
thanx for ur advice
but i think it is not harmful

It's kind of weird that you came up with an app whose got no developer and trying to claim it yours?
Before posting that app here you are suppose to take the real developers permission, if you aren't sure who the developer is, check the resources from where you got it.
I may sound a bit rude but I think the developers needs to get all this credits and thanks, not you

I don't think he's trying to take any credit. He's clearly said the app's not his. Its isn't even on google play yet so it's not like he's selling it (it's even a free download from dropbox so it's not like he's getting paid for downloads). I fail to see why you're attacking him so hard. Perhaps its one of the apps developed on chinese forums where the dev doesn't speak english. I'm not saying you're wrong, but I don't see the justification for such an assault.
To the OP, I think it would be proper as well to know the dev or know if you're acting on his behalf. I'd like to suggest some features as well .
Re: (App) 2.1+ [Net Speed] {Shows Mobile Data And Wifi Speed In Notification Drawer}
Could someone please do a teardown review of this app to ensure it's not sharing data? I really want to use this, but I'm a little nervous about its mysterious origins.

The OP was a bit amateur as Samantha article was, but I thanks her for the good will.

Well, XDA Senior Member niks_avana introduced an app called Network Speed...

This phrase let us assume niks_avana as the developer of the app, in my opinion.
But Samantha reveals the truth a bit later:

What in the world is going on here!?!?!? You did NOT create this app. Normally, I do not post anything that is not positive, but I must speak out against this. You are NOT the developer of this app, & how dare you try to take credit for it. I've been using this app for years, since the days of Froyo, & it's actually been around since Eclair if I remember right.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=netspeed.pt#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDIxMiwibmV0c3BlZWQucHQiXQ
You need to seriously reconsider what you've done here. You cannot take someone's creation, try to hide their name from it, & then present it to the world as if it's yours, & even asking people for thanks for it. It is not just completely wrong morally, but it might also be a serious infraction of XDA policy. This type of behavior should have you banned.
As benefit of doubt, perhaps you just weren't aware of what you've done??? It is wrong. Please delete this thread & be more careful of such things in the future.
Agreed - It's the 1.51 version that IS on the Play store and then advertised as 2.1....
XDA, please get rid of these false devs

[Q] Huawei Ascend Mate 7 E mail Notification Problems

Dear Friends , I just bought my Huawei Ascend Mate 7 MTL 10 32 GB, now with me for one week, I think it is a great device really, i call him the Father of my all mobiles before!. anyhow, I have two problems annoying me , The first one is that e mails reaches the inbox without notifying me once they arrived neither by sound, nor by icon in the notification bar. I have tried every possible setting that you can imagine. more i have searched online, but it seems that it is my only problem(or no one reported it yet)
The notification with sound and in the notification bar only happens when i open the e mail app. it happens mostly with the built in apps (that i setup for my Hotmail and Yahoo) otherwise the gmail app is doing fine.
My second problem is that My Volvo S60 Infotainment system is not fully compatible with the Bluetooth of my new HM7 , as i was able to use Kakao and Viber with my car speakers before with my Samsung Galaxy S5 but now I cannot with HM7.
I really appreciate anyone response about that.
Thanks
you are not a lone
Dear Friend,
don't worry , i have the same issue and still not finding any solution , it is a global issue not only for you and me.
i will try to send an email to huawei to check and send us new update with resolution.

Same problem also for P7 modell of my collegue...seems to be a EMUI problem with certain (customer) applications (Whatsapp also...).
For email I managed it by using GMAIL and application called UNREAD BADGES FOR GMAIL, in other words a widget designed for GMAIL app and available in the GOOGLE STORE (free) and it works. You have to set up well the energy consumption settings and the notification settings, and then it should work.
Well, thank you all for your support and comments, as a matter of fact, few days after i posted my problem here , i spent almost half a day searching for a solution in this forum and over the internet and my conclusion is , Do not waste your time find a solution because there is non, some people having notification with e mail only like myself, others has it with Whatsapp( more annoying) , i read a full thread here in this forum about every possible solution for the problem, from settings of notifications , power saving , Network settings for data and Always on Wifi. Actually reading that thread was extremely interesting, some people are trying to help the one who started the thread (Mr)(Microdog), others sarcastic and Microdog desperately wants to solve the problem as he likes the phone so much (just like myself) and then at the end guess what? the guy decided to sell the phone! and others persuading him to wait, it was so so funny. i loved it. although , i did not find the solution for my problem but i realized that we human beings have remarkable built in desire to help each other no matter anything( I am not religious by the way) , any how , i decided to live with the condition till the new update will come by end of January or February 2015 may be it will solve the problem, because trust me this is one of the best phones that i have ever had!
NB: for you who want to have a look on the thread that i mentioned above (may be it will work for you) please look here

NB: I think in one of the posts , there is someone is doing some app to fix the problem, i tried it and it is not working , and unfortunately it delayed all the e mail notifications more , so i had to uninstall it and did hard rest, so please take care.

Well, that is a disappointment, I was expecting this guys in Huawei will fix that issue with the new update. I think maybe the problem is in their EMUI . We have to raise this problem to Huawei again.
Same problem here !
I had to use 3rd party app "myMail" and it's working great !
100 % than stock email app !

It is the stock email app, although i do experience times where i miss sound notifications, when i have switched between vibration and silent modes. I can't seem to figure out the trigger.
As for email, I use Aquamail, but have also used , cloudmagic, k9, blue mail and boxer, all notifications worked (i tested a bunch to see which had best push times and battery usage).
The notifications worked on all third party email apps for me, so i think it may be an inherent problem with the stock app, but could also be a system wide issue as i do get sound drop outs for some apps randomly as I mentioned before. I have checked all the notification, power settings, screen off etc.. so i think it may be a system bug, corrects on reboot. Hopefully next update fixes it.
Huawei Support - Useless
i sent many emails to Huawei support team but i didn't receive any feedback from them since 10 days

Go to settings > protected apps and protect them. Otherwise they may be unprotected and closed when you close the applications. In order to receive the notifications, the application must be running in the background to work. It consume more battery but there is no other way.

[APP] [BETA] Phone Usage Monitor

Hello,
I want present my new app. that is in beta stage but fully functional: Phone usage monitor.
With this app you will be able to know when and how much you use your device and the apps that you have in it.
Please, report issues, if any, and suggest more events to monitorize.
Thanks
Play Store Description
Are you obsessed with your phone?
Up to what point?
Do you want to be aware of which apps are the most used?
Do you want to know what WiFi networks you connect to and at what time?
When are your applications updated?
Do you want to know if your phone suffers a expontaneous reboot or when you turn on or off the screen?
You need this app and you know it!
Play store link

Looking good! An option to exclude certain apps like Nova Launcher would be nice.

Thanks for the suggestion. Great idea!
It would also be nice to be able to monitor a remote phone (opening up the app to for parental monitoring for example).
This could be achieved by either allowing to :
- send a daily report by mail
- having a client app with data synced whenever a connection is avaialable
- sending data to a central server
...
anyway to export the data as .csv ?
Hello, thanks for app!
Any chance to remove "full network access" from permissions in future ?
Heya! Congrats on making the portal. Good stuff you got there.
Here's some suggestions for the intro texts:
Part 1 - Current
"Do you want to know how do you use your smartphone?
You have installed this app, so the answer will surely be affirmative.
With this app you can know with what apps you lose your time; time which you could lose living your real life..."
Part 1 - Suggested
"Would you like to know how you use your smartphone?
Well, as you've already installed this app, that'll be an affirmative!
By gathering statistics about your apps with Phone Usage Monitor, you'll know where your precious time is creeping off to. Time you might want to spend on living your real life..."
Part 1 - Motivation
The second "do" doesn't really have a function in the first sentence and I made it a bit softer to make a more friendly first impression. I mentioned the app's name to remind the user what's going to help them (branding, be proud of your creation). I stayed true to your intention, the reference to 'real life', but made that a bit softer as well by using "might" and not mentioning a negative word like "lose". We're all winners here!
Part 2 - Current
"To let us know this information we will run a service in the background to monitor the use you make of your smartphone.
Quiet!, it will not consume more than a little bit of the precious battery of your mobile..."
Part 2 - Suggested
"You're probably wondering how much battery this app will consume. Don't worry, just a tiny bit.
Think about the time you will save after gaining all this usage intel. You won't even need as much battery anymore."
Part 2 - Motivation
Shouting "Quiet!" doesn't come across very friendly. There's also never a comma after an exclamation mark. I wrote the text to match the battery icon better. I'm also pushing the major goal of the app forward.
Part 3 - Current
"We will give you more information if you let us see how do you use the apps in your device..."
Part 3 - Suggested
"Sorry to bother you but I will need some usage access in order to provide you with all these awesome statistics. Is that okay with you?"
Part 3 - Motivation
"let us see" gives the impression multiple people or a company will be watching along, which totally isn't the case. I wrote it a bit more personal, fun and friendly.
Part 4 - Current
"Do not worry!
The data we collect is NOT sent anywhere."
Part 4 - Suggested
"Do not worry!
The data I collect is NOT sent anywhere."
Part 4 - Motivation
As in part 3, It's better to speak from a first person point of view, "I" instead of "we". It's just the app and the user, "you and me", which is a more comforting thought.
Instead of "START APP" I'd use something more vivid like "Lets go!" or "Show me some numbers!" or "Start saving time!"
The UDPA looks good, people are used to not reading these disclaimers and accepting them anyway. It's also a nice reminder that even if there is a "we", it's literally stating no personal data will be collected on any server. Kudos! :highfive:
I personally don't like the last paragraph but ah well, one has to make a living, right?
Looking forward to those stats...

It would also be nice to be able to monitor a remote phone (opening up the app to for parental monitoring for example).
This could be achieved by either allowing to :
- send a daily report by mail
- having a client app with data synced whenever a connection is avaialable
- sending data to a central server

I need to think on it.
I would not like it to be used without consent to spy on anyone :/

Hello, thanks for app!
Any chance to remove "full network access" from permissions in future ?

Sorry, but Internet permission is needed to display Ads.
I understand that you do not believe in my word when I say that I am not sending data anywhere, but I need to access the Internet to load the Ads
Please add export data functionality! Csv format for example. Great app otherwise, thanks!
Crashing
Hi,. Unfortunately the app crashes every time I open it on my OnePlus 6 that runs Android 9. The first time run screens work fine and permissions are assigned ok but then I can't open the app. I have tried clearing the storage/cache and that hasn't helped. Any ideas what to try next please?
Hi
Assuming you're rooted, please, post a logcat or send by email.
Thanks

Hello
I've tried but no luck reproducing the issue.
If possible, enter app settings then enable debug mode then reproduce the issue then sent the log file.
If not possible, please, contact by email or PM to receive a debug version of the app to track the issue.
Thanks in advance

Question How to keep stay app alive?

I have a problem with the killing watch app on my OnePlus 9 phone. Every morning my watch is disconnected and I must run Huawei Health app. I tried looking for how to resolve it but nothing helps me. For example https://dontkillmyapp.com/oneplus.
This is my first OnePlus 9 phone. I'll be grateful for any advice
Thank you so much

I had to do this same thing. Click recent pages; far right navigation button off home screen. Long press the app you want to keep running. Hit lock like in illustration. My watch stays connected always unless far away.
Thank you, but this is the basic thing that I did.
Settings - Apps and notifications - Special App access - Battery Optimisation - find your app and choose Don't Optimise.
Also in Battery Optimisation at top right side you have a menu with 3 dots for Advanced Optimisation, choose settings as you wish
All the above, plus grant to the app permanent location access privilege: this did the trick for me with Huawei Health app.
There is in the pictures my settings. I don't know what is wrong, but it isn't working. It is very annoying. The second app which doesn't work is Aquamail. Notification doesn't work after some time. I think I did everything. When I start the apps there is some delay (it works) and after that notification or connection is lost. On the other hand, I have installed MS Outlook and there is no problem.

Thanks for your advertisement. Would be better to tell me how did you resolve the problem...
With some apps like Microsoft Outlook for Android, I don't have a problem. With Huawei Health and Aquamail, I have problems. Trust me, I still looking for a solution.

Advertisement is gone. I suggest to consider to simply report such posts in future to allow us to eliminate them immediately. XDA currently has 3.5+M threads with 78M+ posts. Unless we receive support by the XDA users and their reports a timely action is not always guaranteed as our small moderator team can't permanently monitor all threads and posts. The deleted post was also reported by another user. Thanks for your cooperation.
