Recently, the amount of recent apps icons at the bottom of the screen has changes from 5 to 4 (on android pie). There has not been any software updates and I didn't change the display density. Is there anyway to make it back to 5?

Hi,
I'm trying to get a Nexus 7 like UI in my Galaxy Tab 7.7. I have ICS 4.0.4 running on it. I installed Nova Launcher, set it as default, replaced Samsung Keyboard, changed DPI to 213, replaced some other misbehaving Samsung Apps. So far so good. But I would like to further simplify the UI, like in Nexus:
1) Introduce a new bar on the top of screen like Nexus7, move the icons on the right side of bottom navigation bar to top of screen. I need a new bar for this, any idea how can I get it? the notifications shall also start to pop down from top of the screen.
2) Disable mini-apps bar in the middle of bottom navbar. Anyway many of them don't function anymore in 213 DPI and I don't need it anymore.
3) Distribute the remaining navbar icons evenly onto the bottom navbar. Now they are very close to each other on the crowded left side of the bar.
Is this mission impossible? I was eventually using latest CM10 version which was good, but one morning I woke up with a depleted battery and a boot loop. I will wait some more time in the stock ROM (if possible) to try again either CM10 or PA.

That's because of the STUPID skinning that Huawei did to its EMUI overlay. I think it is in theory possible to hack the SystemUI or to re-skin the navbar, but it's probably a rather difficult process or more people would do it. Easiest thing is to install Xposed framework, App Settings module and set the SystemUI back to 480 dpi. I know of no other workaround. (Also, setting SystemUI back to 480 dpi also fixes a number of other awkward theming issues, e.g. on the lock screen. The camera app also looks weird at a lower dpi, etc. etc.)
hi, apologies if this has been posted before but it's really driving me nuts. 2 days ago everything was fine: i'm simply using c-locker as a lock screen. then yesterday i noticed there was another lock screen which can only be unlocked by swiping up. the status bar also changed. whereas before the bar went all the way up to the edge, now there's a black bar. the phone signal moved to the left side. to view notification icons (like an envelope for sms), the sound would come but the status bar would stay the same. by clicking on the status bar only then would the other icons appear and the status bar would go to the original (be all the way to the end of the screen). i'm still googling about but so far zilch.
solved!
my wife's phone is a nokia 1020 (we bought it as she loves the camera). it rang last night and she was in the gym. so i answered it and afterwards i noticed that the lockscreen and the status bar were very similar to the one i was having issues with in my edge. so i went over to my edge and uninstalled windows 10 launcher. i had previously installed it because my wife wanted to see if i could replicate her phone interface. so i installed but never used the launcher. when the edge did an ota update, windows 10 launcher was part of the other apps touched. whatever updates happened, the launcher forced it's lockscreen and status bar profiles on top of my existing setup. so, in case you plan to install the win10 launcher, maybe it's best to use it on it's own.
I just recently installed the T-Mobile/Verizon Hybrid ROM on my S7 and there are only two things I don't like about Nougat.
The white notification shade
And the fact that the toggles are six-wide when you first pull down the notification shade. Since the bigger layout only allows for 3, 4, or 5 wide...it means it's impossible for the far right toggle to be in the same place when you view your toggles in their two display modes. Very annoying if you want your flashlight to be the far right toggle!
Is there a way to force that initial group of toggles to be 5 wide instead of 6?
Both of these things happened on the Android 10 update. Randomly ongoing notifications will take up basically the whole shade with blank information. Requires me force closing the app for them to go away.
The 2nd issue is that hitting the bottom of the space bar (actually the whole bottom row) does not work anymore when I have navigation gestures on. It detects the input, as noted in the attached gif, but the keyboard just does not register it.
Yes that's an annoying change or bug that there's an invisible space at the bottom where input isn't registered.
If you are using the Android 10/Google implementation of navigation gestures there's a magisk module called "Immersive Gestural Navigation Bar (Q)" that's supposed to get rid of this bar.
Sadly this doesn't work for the Asus implementation as this one has the same problem since Android 10, which it didn't have on Android Pie.
You can observe this black bar by starting Super Mario Run e.g.
It's also very noticable even though it's not visible in the Youtube app in landscape mode when you want to click the 3 dot menu button.
