Anyone know if there's a way to expand the notification window? Or reduce the size of all the quick settings buttons? When I tap the lower-right corner to expand the notification window and see my notifications, 100% of the notifications are hidden below the bar (because the time, date, wifi status, battery status, quick setting buttons, brightness setting, and 'settings' item fill the entire window), which means I always have to swipe-scroll-up to see what notifications are waiting if any. Kind of awkward and doesn't seem at all what Google intended.
If the window notification window opened further (to a greater height on the screen), or the some of the settings could be collapsed (the clock?), it'd solve the problem...
I would like to add some "tiles" to the Quick Settings pull down "shade" in the upper right corner. I'm on JB 4.21, the one just released for us.
Some sites show the shade having a 'setting' icon in the shade's upper right corner. However, when I go to my tablet, the shade does not have any such icon. The "Settings" tile sends me to the normal Settings screen.
Is there a way to add to or remove tiles to this Quick Settings shade? I know there are apps that might do the same. But I was puzzled why some devices with this JB version has the Quick Settings setup icon for itself, and others do not.
Thanks for any help.
Hi,
I am a bit confused about these. They seem to be related but all different things. Could anyone point me to what they are and how they are used?
Thanks
Quick settings is panel accessible from the notification drawer containing tiles (toggles) which control some system settings (wifi,gps,bt..)
Quick access ribbon is a row of controls (system settings like above) you see on top when opening the notification drawer (e.g. sliding from top to bottom)
I see. So I have is Quick Settings (toggles) and Notification. I've not seen quick access ribbon though.
I have both of them in the lower right corner. Above the notifications, there is an row with a single icon which looks like many lines and a ",' following it. I don't see ribbon of toggles. Any way to enable them?
Thanks
I'm using CarbonRom based on CyanogenMod 10.2 (Android 4.3) and I found it in the statusbar settings:
Settings -> Statusbar -> Quick Settings -> Quick Access Ribbon
I did find it. However, when I run in Tablet UI with notification, quick access settings all in the lower right corner, I don't see quick access ribbon. Instead, I see the attached image.
Any clue on why? Thanks
Some screenshots:
And the ribbons

Which rom are you using? Maybe that feature has been implemented yet in your device rom
I have PAC-man 4.3, which has CM 10.2
The ribbon is there in the stock UI mode. When I use tablet UI, when notification and quick settings are both in the lower right corner, the ribbon turns into that icon as in my previous attached image.
Oh I see, it must be just a bug then
Actually I have Three Feature Requests;
1. Hide Notch in the Quick Settings Menu.
2. Custom Background Picture in the Incoming Call Screen.
3. Customizable Lock Screen Shortcuts.
I've Googled this to death and have found nothing. Is there any way to increase the Notification Bar icon size with root? The icons are very small compared to many other phones. Lots of requests going back years on the Mi forum but we still have small notification bar icons and no option to enlarge them. Anyone??
Settings -> Screen -> Status Bar -> unckeck Use Apps Icons for Notifications
Any other change require Root access
