App that will give me one touch Location services Quick Setting tile on Nougat - General Questions and Answers

All I want is a QS tile that one touches for location (and only high accuracy). Both nougat roms that I like for the Moto X Pure (Resurrection remix and CRdroid), neither have this, I have to manually toggle off location after hitting the QS button.
I tried the app Custom Quick Settings, it seemed promising, but alas I can't get it to work right. When trying to make a one click location QS, I can get it, but I don't want to cycle through the different stages, I just want high accuracy, so I delete the other tasks, and keep high accuracy and disable, well the disable defaults to GPS only for some reason, so I fix that to turn off location, doesn't always work. Some times I have to hit the tile two or three times to get it to do what I want it to do and other times it does nothing.
Anyone know an app out there that gives me this?

Unofficial directory of features/requests for the Verizion HTC M8

This is an unofficial directory for issues/features that we want to see fixed/added via ROMS or software updates. Simply post a request, and if it is appropriate and acceptable it will be added into the directory. This post serves as a place where DEVS can find an issue or feature and can... well... fix it! I plan for most of these to be at least partially exclusive to sense 6 and or the Verizon HTC m8. I will update the directory nightly
GUIDELINES​*The issue must be something that more than one person can relate to.
*The issue cannot pertain to another app. I.E. if an app is crashing too much.
*K.I.S.S Keep it simple stupid.
*Look before you post! I will update the directory and see if it's there. This will save us both some time
*Lastly off-topic posts or typo requests won't bother me the slightest, but just know your boundaries
*Please refrain from things that are basic in custom ROMS . These include but are not limited to navigation bar tweaks, and system ui visual changes
If you see a user post an issue that you know a fix for, give him a hand

This is getting annoying for me. The double tap to wake and the slide up to unlock is an amazing feature. But it's almost worthless if we can't use it when the phone is laying down. My phone is on my desk at work most of the day, and it would be great if I could just double tap to see what notification just came in.
I think it has to do with the g-sensor. When I first turned the phone on, the pop up menu said that the unlock gestures only work when the screen is being held in portrait mode. So I'm thinking that when it's laying down, the phone doesn't know exactly what orientation it should be in. I've found that even holding the phone upright just a touch allows the gestures to work fine.
Changing shortcuts of the gestures while the screen is off? For instance, swipe left while screen is off launches 'X' app...
Unlocked wireless tether. Get rid of the various wifi notifications. LED torch quick toggle.

When on a call, press power button to turn screen off, when call ends the screen turns back on by itself. Why? Idk but very annoying, only HTC phones do this!
If someone can tweak it to where when in a call the user manually presses the power button to turn screen off, the screen stays off even when the caller or whoever hangs up.
A feature that would be great for me is a quick toggle/widget to toggle the motion launch gestures. I have to go through all the settings menus every time I want to toggle it (which is only when I'm at work). When at work, my phone stays in my pocket, and I am moving around a lot, so sometimes my thigh will unlock the phone and open apps, along with draining my battery.
Changing images for navigation bar.

U WOT M8?
Just pointing out a few things:
1. As far as the WiFi notification, you can get rid of this by going to Settings > Wi-Fi > Advanced, and de-selecting the "Notify me" option. This is what I did on my previous phone (M7) and my M8, and since de-selecting that box, I've never seen the WiFi notification pop up.
2. The Wake Gestures actually can be used when the phone is laying down. This also annoyed me to no end initially, until I saw someone post that you can just move your phone slightly to make the wake gestures work. I'm assuming this works because it trips the internal movement sensor, which then makes the phone think that it's been picked up. The movement doesn't even have to be vertical; I just slightly move my phone to the side a bit, and it's enough to make the wake gestures work for me.
Email Widget for the native Sense email app...i cannot BELIEVE this was left out by HTC/VZW/whoever...WTF!
I'd like to be able to adjust the grid size of the home screens, 4 across is too spaced out, I like it lining up with 4 icons and app drawer icon at the bottom.
Also, as mentioned in another post, I'd like to be able to customize the keys next to the home key, i.e. move the back key to the right and replace the multitask key with the menu key etc.
ability to hide the standard soft buttons and replace them with LMT style popup buttons.
Ability to toggle individual gestures on and off. I'd like to have double tap to wake, but turn off swipe to wake. I end up waking the device with a swype simply by pulling it out of my pocket which I don't want.
Toggle automatic factory reset on 10 bad unlock attempts on and off or set the number of failed attempts to an arbitrary number.
Able to remove ANY of the always on notificatios. Alarm, keyboard, hearing aid boost, nfc, etc

I love the "knock on" feature, tho I agree, it would be very nice if it worked even when the phone is laying flat. But why is there no "knock off"? Don't they kinda go hand in hand?
Ability to have more than 10 alarms

Slide finger across statusbar to control brightness like Gravitybox (enabling in Gravitybox does not work on our devices).
Ability to display notifications from more than the stock HTC apps when using the Dot Matrix case.

I have found that tapping the screen 3 times (instead of 2) will usually wake the screen while it is laying on a desk. Just use a little bit of force on the first tap... It seems like an accelerometer needs to detect motion before the screen digitizer wakes up.
This would still be a nice feature request, though I have a feeling it won't be possible without having a significant effect on battery life.

Three taps with the phone laying flat has been working for me as well.
I would love to see a built in data transfer rate in the status bar like Android revolution has for the m7

[Q] Tasker can't access Secure Settings

I posted earlier today but realized the problem goes deeper than I thought...
Rooted, lollipop 5.0.1, tasker pro & secure settings pro.
I installed helper or whatever it's called now to have root access via secure settings
I set up a task to try and toggle GPS and if I go to test action it works great. However, hitting the play button does nothing (despite giving me a green circle) and if I set a profile to toggle GPS it does nothing either. I tried doing some other things (eg. toggle airplane mode) with no luck. I have been going +task, plugins>secure settings>GPS and hitting toggle. Any one know what could be the issue? Thanks

Is There Any 6.0 Marshmallow ROM With Quick Settings Tile Configuration Yet?

As the title says, Is There Any 6.0 Marshmallow ROM With Quick Settings Tile Configuration Yet? By configuration I'm talking about selecting which tiles you want to appear in quick settings, and adjusting the order of said tiles. Also the ability to disable the brightness slider in quick settings. Is there such a ROM yet, it's been quite awhile since Android M source was dropped so I'm wondering if ROMs have progressed to the point where we can select which tiles show in quick settings. Thanks.

Current builds of Android 6.0.1 has that feature to add few more new tiles, but still that is buggy.
Don't install Gravitybox and try it, because your system will keep on crashing.
I suggest you to wait for a week and you'll get that configuration.
In lasted build of sultan's ROM, there is QS Config feature, but I guess it is buggy.
I hope this helps you!

Check VM13 and S-AOSP in Development Section. I'm using S-AOSP and its awesome.
I'm on Ressurection Remix ROM right now and it's possible (doesn't look that stable yet though).

[Night Mode] as it should be on OOS with a new QS Tile, Root and Kcal required

Hi all.
OnePlus Night mode is a bit off the standard as some of us have been reporting for a long time.
I have been struggling with it since day one. To green (i see a lot of users saying to yellow) for me.
This does not Fix the One Plus Night Mode, it adds a new QS Tile you can use instead.
With this new QS Tile you will get the Amber Night Mode you see on AOSP Roms.
Root is mandatory.
You need a kernel with Kcal support (If you know me you know what i use already, if not it's on my Signature, if you are on XDA Labs and can't see it i always use blu_spark kernel).
Kernel Adiutor is not mandatory but is the app i use to check if it's all as should be.
QuickTile Quick Settings 7+ is the app i use for the "new" Night Mode QS Tile.
Now the fun:
Open Quick Tile and give the App root permissions when asked.
1 - Change the QS icon to the White half Moon icon, Change the name to Night Mode (The icon and name can be adjusted to your personal taste)
2 - Click the "+" button, select "LAB", select "send ROOT Shell command and insert:
Code:
echo '256 256 256' > /sys/devices/platform/kcal_ctrl.0/kcal
Hit OK, this is the normal state of QS Tile (disabled state).
3 - Hit the "Gear icon" and choose Add Cycle (Previous state will vanish, we are now making the enabled Night mode state of the same QS Tile)
4 - Change the QS icon to the Grey half Moon icon, Change the name to Night Mode (The icon and name can be adjusted to your personal taste)
5 - Click the "+" button, select "LAB", select "send ROOT Shell command and insert:
Code:
echo '256 155 61' > /sys/devices/platform/kcal_ctrl.0/kcal
Hit OK, this is the actual Night Mode state of QS Tile (enabled state).
6 - Hit the "Play button" to see the night mode Kick in.
7 - Go to your QS, edit them and add the new Night Mode QS Tile you just created to the QS panel. You can ditch the old one.
All done. Enjoy the Night mode on OOS as it should have been implemented in the first place.
This works on Stable and OB OOS. You need to disable the automatic Night Mode if you are on OB or it will override this one.
OP3/3T are on par on such matter, it works for both devices.
Nice, will give it a try. I also dont understand what was oneplus idea by adding this greenish night mode. It hurts my eyes and i never use it
Thanks for this!
I noticed with ex kernel manager that each switch between regular and nightmode will increase the values for "value" and "contrast" by one step.
Depending on how often you do this, the colors will look noticeably different eventually.

I have tested it quite extensively with Kernel Adiutor.
Can't seem to reproduce it.
127 is the value for both "value" and "contrast" on both Night Mode and Stock Mode.
Try to disable ExKernel Manager and use KA to check after a few ON/OFF cycles of Night Mode.
The only parameter of Kcal I touch with those commands is "Screen color" which changes RGB.
They cycle as supposed on my end.
Other values are untouched and are reported as untouched on Kernel Adiutor App.
Feel free to give me feedback on this matter. I find that a bit strange.
@Chaplan
Works great with EX kernel and OB14 on OP3. Thanks for this. :good:
Edit: Also configured Tasker for automatic Night Mode
Hey just followed your tutorial and created the tile and tested with play button but I am unable to add the tile to the qs panel. I am able to drag the 'Quicktile' tile to half way and it disappears. Not sure it's rom issue or app. So can you help me out?

It's pretty straight forward.
Never encountered that issue.
Try to add it to the middle panel and then to the top panel where the QS Tiles get activated.
Also giving auto start permissions to the app and removing it from agressive Doze and app hibernation list will make it perform on an immediate basis when the QS is pressed.

Tried them and still doesn't work. But thinking that I am using ozone substratum theme for 4QS tiles. This might be the reason for not able to add tiles.?
Will check that also.
Thank you for the response:good:

NFC quick tile always shows disabled

Just setup my phone, including updates/security updates and I've found the NFC quicktile always shows disabled. If I long press the icon, it will take me to Connection preferences where I can turn it on or off there, but no matter the state it is in the NFC quicktile shows disabled.
Anyone else have this problem?
Yep. Mine is the same way. I also have a weird issue because I keep several apps in folders on my homepage. If I rearrange the apps within a folder, it leaves a copy of the app icon on the actual homepage itself. A reboot fixes it but it's odd.
Strange, I don't even have the option to add NFC quick tile. I've tried toggling NFC both on and off and looking for the tile with no luck either.
Mine is also disabled. I probably only have it because I transferred my settings from another phone that had the tile there already. I wonder if/why Google is phasing out the NFC toggle
I also cannot use the quick tile toggle
My 4a also disabled.
I think that it is because the data/settings were migrated from the previous phone that has NFC icon in QS panel.
The NFC toggle works fine for me, BUT... my phone is rooted.
I installed the Quick Settings app (by Simone Sestito) to get the NFC toggle, then granted it superuser permissions.

My 4a is also rooted, yet the (previously) built-in quick toggle is disabled as previously described.

To test this I just froze the Quick Settings app I installed and I don't even see NFC among the default choices. Only unfreezing the app adds it back, so maybe you're seeing something that was there from previous settings you restored? I think it's odd that Google didn't put it there by default, but it appears they didn't?
I actually factory reset mine last night and didn't restore from any backup. The NFC quick toggle is gone now.

Yep, that's exactly the conclusion I came to earlier. Google definitely removed the tile for it. Seems like a strange decision to me, though.
FWIW, seems to be not fixed in the latest 11 build.
