Hi all,
When I open the settings on my lollipop device I seem to get a cut down version of the settings options (Menu's and menu options are missing, like accessibility, advanced audio setting, etc)
I know these options can be accessed because I somehow managed to get to the advanced audio settings using nova launcher (I cant remember how)
Is there an app or something like that I can download to open the standard setting app?
Thanks.

i don't know if this belongs in here i read the rules and didn't find anything that said it doesn't so i will try
heres a wishlist for my ideal rom
1.i want to get rid of the entire google section from the settingspanel and put it under accounts i find it really uncomfortable to have the google branding in my settings panel i want it all to act like any other account where settings go under account, if no google account is logged into then theres no google settings
2.i want to get rid of the entire accessability section from the settingspanel and move just the accessability app function under system so apps that require it can still work i also want blutooth settings and wifi settings combined into one all connectivity settings under one section not two different ones
3.i want to port sonys xreality Engine including the settings such as ultra vivid mode under screen settings as this is something i find extremely valueble it makes the lcd on my xz1 beat the oled of my s7 edge, i believe this is by far the best screen preset funciton on Android so it could go under screen presets simple as that
4.i want the rom to be as Clean as possible, i want to choose not to have it come preloaded with a calendar app or phone app or anything like that that can be downloaded off the playstore, any app function such as Contacts that can be downloaded from the playstore i don't want any of it preloaded, so as bloatware free as possible, i am not sure how to work that with no launcher coming preloaded though
5. i want the playstore renamed to just store or software manager or software center and with a regular store Icon, basically i want to get rid of any and all google branding from the rom, the rom would ofcourse have google functions as otherwise it wouldn't work but visually i don't want to see any branding of any kind that includes the name "trebuchet" for the preloaded launcher i'd prefer just "launcher"
6.not important but i want greenify implemented as standard battery saver functions rather than something you download afterwards i also want doze to be put under battery and wellbeing to be put under screen settings, i noticed these are in the main settings panel, i also want the setting to doze gms to be implemented in the battery settings panel so you don't need magisk for that i also want doze and greenify to be merged into one or just take all greenify functions and put it under doze
7. i'd love for magisk to be implemented too under system settings so theres no magisk app you access settings under system not through an app
8.i'd love screen width to be impemented under screen settings so you don't need to go under developer settings just to change screen dpi, i would also love usb debugging to be taken out of developer settings and be put under connected devices section or in my case connectivity settings
9. i noticed that most of the settings under google settings don't even have to exist so they could be seperated throughout the panel like screencast can be put under display settings, nearby could be under connectivity settings, backup would ofcourse be under system and search would also be under system, location settings could be under connectivity, configure nearby device under connectivity
10.get rid of any "no simcard" warning from the rom as well as any carrier branding i don't want to know it, i think everyone is aware if they have no sim or not in their phone, maybe show a warning when trying to go online that no simcard has been detected and notifying the user to use wifi.
this is ofcourse just a wishlist i do understand if magisk or greenify can't be implemented in a rom but it is a wishlist.
I recently bought an Umidigi phone who normally is stock Android. I noticed that some settings are not displayed but are searchable...
For example, the battery icon settings, or the displayed size. When I go with the search menu the screen of displayed size is there but the shortcut on settings menu isn't. Unfortunately for the battery display it's notre working.
Some of the settings are accessible in developper options.
Any idea ? Suggestion ?
I want to change the behavior of the long-press on the home button so it doesn't try to launch assistant. I'd like it to do nothing.
I tried disabling assistant, but this just displays an obnoxious banner telling me to turn on assistant.
I did find this app that allows you to remap the button to all sorts of things, but would prefer something that doesn't need all those permissions.
This is with 3-button navigation enabled as I'm using Nova Launcher on Android 10. Phone is not rooted.
[edit] and of course, I found the answer immediately after posting the question:
Settings > Apps & Notifications > Default apps > Assist app - change it to "None"

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Only thing is if you use the "Squeeze" for Google Assistant it disables that too. Which is good or bad depending on how you feel about GA. I just got mine today so I'm still playing with things. Might delete later,IDK.
Hello there,
In my Rom on a new phone (blackview bv9900) some settings that I Set eher not saved.
After a reboot the specific settings are disabled.
Some settings for Apps in Accessibility settings, wireless in streaming settings and something more.
The Accessibility / streaming settings are important settings for me.
Is there a way to Set a persistence for this to enable it after a reboot?
This Stock Rom is a little bit buggy.
Kind regards
Chris
Hello,
I am Using Zebra TC72 Android 10 Devices implemented in Enterpise Mode in Microsoft Intune with Managed Homescreen.
Certain settings are Pushed by Zebra Managed Config throug the Intune interface.
Now I have the isssue, that it seems that Enterprise Mode disables the Quick Settings Menu which would otherwise be available in the Notification bar.
There was everything the user should be able to alter manually like, brightness, inverted colors etc.
I can reach part of it if I restrict the settings menu with the Zebra Tools. https://techdocs.zebra.com/oemconfig/9-1/mc/#usereducedversion
For this I would simply enable the "android.settings" shortcut in the Managed Homescreen, the Zebra Framework would care about the limited view.
But it only allows Access to Display Submenu, For Color Inversion I need the accessibility menu for example.
I can´t find any way to alter the policies in a way, where I could specify which submenus get blocked.
So I need either.
1.) Find a way to access the Quick Controls / Quick Menu from the notification bar again - be it by sliding it down or setting up a shortcut to the Package Name directy?
or
2.) Find a way to limit the Submenus in android.settings I exactly need.
Any Ideas?
