notification quick toggles disappeared - Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers

Hi everyone,
I've been having a problem with the notification bar not displaying the quick toggles. They're still there. You put your finger on the spot and whatever toggle is there will activate or deactivate, you just can't see it. Needless to say, it's very annoying and I don't know the cause of it. I'm rooted, updated to may patch. I tried back tracking to see if I hit any switches but nothing. I did everything shy of factory resetting. Check the screenshot. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Found out what the problem was. It was with the app shortcutter. Toggling the "reflow pull down animation" button caused it to disappear.

Bottom tray icons appear and disappear!?

Ok, Ive done tons of searching, and unable to find the answer to this.
I occasionally have a few icons (lock, restart wm6, and BT) in my bottom system tray. Sometimes they are there, sometimes not.
Does anyone know how to make them stay there?!?
Or at least, what am I doing to make them disappear or appear?
I currently have the screen rotation icon, the comm manager icon, and the battery icon... which do not disappear at any time.
I thank you for any comments, suggestions in advanced!

Notification bar nonresponsive

My notification bar intermittently stops responding i.e. the pop up window with WIFI, GPS, etc options doesn't come up when I click on lower right corner. The home, recent apps, and back buttons work perfectly fine. I already created a thread about audio issues I am having with JB update. Now this... I tried cold boot and system factory reset.
Its all stock. No root or unlock.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks

Hello.
+1 : my Infinity (root, but not unlock) have exactly same bug since JB upgrade, i.e. no notification bar after boot (nothing happens when I click on lower right corner) unless a notification appears, so I must unmount and re-mount microSD for example to have a notification, and then the notification bar is back...
I thought it was a JB bug, but it seems that only some users encounter it... So, as Arundroid said, any help would be appreciated ! Thanks in advance...

Simply click the clock on the bottom right has no effect.
However if I use launcher defined gesture to invoke the notification bar, it will appear.

[Q] Is this normal?

I am a new Z3 owner (D6603, rooted, locked BL on 23.0.1.A.5.77) coming from a long list of Samsung devices. I've noticed two small things that bug me and wanted to ask if these are normal.
The first thing is, for lack of a better word, keeping apps in the background. For instance, if I am in the twitter app, click on a link to a story which opens in Chrome, then share the story via email by way of chrome's share function, it then opens my email app. When I'm done sending the email and hit the back button, instead of taking me back to Chrome, it returns me to the home screen. This is different than every other Samsung device I have. Those will return me to chrome, then hitting the back button again returns me to twitter app. Basically it reverses the complete path. I'll admit this might seem silly but given my normal workflow of going from app to app, returning on the same path is important. Is there some setting on the Z3 that I need to set to enable this behavior?
The second has to do with notifications. If I have multiple notifications, as expected, the icons for each notification appear in the notification bar when the notification window is collapsed, but as soon as I click on any one of the notifications, the icons disappear from the collapsed notification bar. If I expand the notification bar, all the notifications are still there, but the icons don't show when the notification bar is collapsed. Is this normal for the Z3?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Hi there
Regarding your first problem: I actually just tried this with Facebook (clicking a link), open Chrome and sharing it via Gmail
and it behaves just as you said you wanted it to, it brought me back to Chrome and then back to FB.
That notifications disappear from the status bar (collapsed notification bar?) is really unusual.
Never happened to me before, neither did I hear/read about such problems.
I'd suggest to either check if some apps are causing this (like apps which handle notifications)
or reflash the firmware through recovery (but a different, maybe your own created zip) as I think
the first problem is a system failure.
Maybe someone else can help you better, just wanted to let you know that this isn't usual for the Z3
Settings, Personalisation, Clear viewed notifications
Edit: The default setting is unticked btw, so I guess you must have changed it.

Thank you! That took care of the notification problem.
So I just noticed the back glass panel on my phone wasn't fully glued at the factory. Kind of a major defect for a waterproof phone. Shame, I really like the phone but sending it back for replacement. Hopefully the new one doesn't have the recents problem. Thanks everyone.

Overlapping notifications

So i have been modding my phone for a month now and have found several bugs that make thinks kind of difficult. I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 (GT-S7275R) and installed the Cyanogen 12.1 mod and latest kernel from Kotzir. The problem is when i get a notification in the drop down menu, it overlaps with the menu and the other notifications. I understand that the transparent theme may cause this "trick" of hiding the notification behind a menu may cause it to appear behind it, but it should scroll with the menu anyways. And besides that, in the notification area the notifications overlap as well. The standard music app even has 2 notifications overlap itself. So i think there is something wrong with the grid of the notifications? Some counter that's stuck or something? Other than that, the phone is really stable and battery life has extended by 150% so i am happy, but i don't like to have to manually open every app to see what is going on, even more so if you can only open it by the notification like USB settings and such.
(i would like to post pictures but since i am new here i have to make 10 post before i can. i will as soon as i can, sorry for that)
Thanks in advance
Nevermind
This from can be closed, i moved over to android 6.0 CM13. It doesn't have the problem.
However a bit more information for other people who want to stay at the CM12.1:
1: The problem seemed to happen whenever more then one app had a notification. Just one app after a fresh reboot didn't cause anything.
2: If you pressed where the icons should be, you would still select it. This means it was just rendered wrong. This would mean the grid is fine, but there is a bugg in drawing the notifications properly.
3: Sometimes the menu would freeze and the animation would hang but the menu would still be pushed upwards when swiped up. The menu would freeze causing you to only see a stripe with a half gear and the other icons but just at the top.
4: The clock becomes visible after turning the screen 90 degrees either way.
5: Restarting the GUI via the settings menu should solve the problem. The icons still work just image swiping down with your eyes closed. swipe all the way down and press the gear icon to open settings.
Thanks to the admin who placed it to the correct category anyways.
have a nice day everyone ^^

Weird Icon in Status Bar

Hey guys, installed a few custom ROMs over the last few days to find one I enjoy. However on nearly all of them I keep getting this logo in my status bar and I can't find anything about it. Can anyone tell me what it is and how to remove it? It's quite big and even though it's not too much of a hassle it bothers me. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: can't add screenshot. View image here : http://i.imgur.com/mo9sAjX.jpg
EDIT: FIXED. If anyone else is experiencing this issue just go to system/priv-app/immessage and change immessage.apk to immessage.apk.bak, reboot, and done
I think that is the "advanced calling" feature. Not sure where it is in settings.
EDIT:
From another thread...
Settings -> Connections -> More connection settings -> Advanced Calling & Messaging -> Turn off and the icon will disappear.
