Hello, today I noticed that small quick settings (tiles in 1 row) doesn't work properly:
1) Tiles are invisible - I just see white background although they are working when I tap on white space.
2) Small quick settings are interfering with larger quick settings menu - when I try to tap on brightness slider, I often tap on invisible tile from small quick settings.
Restarting phone and resetting quick settings does nothing.
Can somebody tell me how can I fix it? I hope my problem is understandable.
Have you installed any substratum theme with a white overlay? I suspect it.

I haven't.
Nova Launcher is the only app that I'm using to customize my Android but it shouldn't affect quick settings. I changed the launcher to default (Launcher3) to make sure - the problem is still there.

Doesn't seem like you can really add any Quick Settings... the only tile you can add is a "Broadcast Tile" and it doesnt seem to do anything or show up

On my Nexus 5 (not 5x) I can add these options: Invert colors, Do not disturb, Hotspot, and Broadcast Tile.
On the 5X it shows Invert Colors, DND, and Hotspot as already being in the list even though Hotspot and Invert Colors are not shown unless the features are actually turned on at the time
This won't work for me for some reason? Disable encryption and rooted, only things I can think of that might interfere?
Fixed: Enabled animations in Developer Options again, rebooted, gear finally spun and unlocked the feature.
This is odd. I can't seem to enable System UI on my 5x. It's rooted, unencrypted. I am using Nova Launcher, but even when I revert back to Google NOW I still can't enable it.
I'm pressing down on the cog icon for at least 30 secs easily. Any ideas?
Oh, need to enable animations as noted above.

Yea, I tried to use the Invert Colors toggle just to see what it does but it doesn't show in the notification when I exit the system UI tuner. I honestly hate the embedded battery percentage, wish it showed outside of the battery

Hi everyone,
I have issues with my eyes (cataracts) so I need to have the invert colours options on my quick settings when I need to invert the colours. For the past few weeks I have gone from rom to rom and no matter which one I try when I click the option to invert colours in the accessibility page the invert colours toggle no longer appears in the quick settings. Personally I would rather set it up as a gesture as I use it a lot but if not the quick settings was the next best thing and now it is gone. Can someone please help. It is hard for me to read normally and without colour inversion it makes using the phone very tough. .
Thank you

If you pull down the quick settings then long press the settings cog wheel you unlock 'system UI tuner', go to that then 'quick settings', what worked for me is deleting the 'invert colours' tile then adding it again, now it's in my quick settings. Hope it helps!

I have the same problem, I dont use Invert colours, but found this problem. When changing quick settings in settings the icon for Invert colours is present. But when pulling down the quick settings the Invert colours icon is gone. Very strange

I will unroot and see if that works.
You first have to enable the Color Inversion display in the Settings > Accessibility menu. Once you enable it, the toggle will appear in Quick Settings.
Is this possible?
In settings you only have two choices: date & time or signature. Until one of the custom roms starts delving into the second screen, this is it.

Yeah that's screen off. I was curious about screen on. But I'm assuming that the answer is no.
Enabling the option under Settings -> Second screen -> "Show time while content is shown" and then hiding the status bar seems to force the clock (actually all status bar icons) into the second screen.
Nova has an option to do this (not root necessary) but it only will stay that way on your home screen and revert back when in an app that doesn't do Fullscreen. I'm not sure there is a way to always force Fullscreen without root + Xposed (which is not yet available for Nougat) for all apps.

So I tried this and it definitely removed the status bar and icons up top in the second screen, but no clock. Just black.

Interesting....I wonder why it is behaving different for me. I do have an older version of Nova though. You don't have any other settings to hide the clock in the notification bar enabled do you? And you are sure you enabled the option at the bottom of the second screen settings called "Show time while content is shown"?

You know what. I have a 3minit mod installed that hides the default clock. I bet that is what it is.
I noticed that there is this something like a blur / weird effect near status bar like example on this lg g6 specific wallpaper on galaxybs8. Also, when using a plain black wallpaper on the top part of the screen, it's not pure black but some white/light in it. How to remove this?
Your Screen seems defective
Does it appear every where?

it's a screen shot dude
What you mean its a screen shot? Look at the google sign in the upper left corner it also looks strange. And if it appers on his screenshot its also visible on his display i guess.

Mate. Screenshots are software renders, they do not show display issues.
The "weird google icon" is a feature of the google launcher.
@OP, this is a known Samsung system ui thing, they apply a blur effect and it looks odd if you're using certain backgrounds and launchers.
I did not find a way to disable it in the native settings, perhaps a 3rd party app can help.

I have the same problem you have
I guess that's your launcher doing that effect. What launcher are you using?
I am using Pixel Launcher. It's not everywhere. Only noticeable on some specific wallpapers in homescreen.
So is there a solution to this matter?
The blur/gradient/tint/almost transparent shade ( call it whatever you want ) appears in home screen. If you see the wallpaper in gallery in full screen it appears fine . So there is nothing wrong with the screen. This effect exists with every launcher ( stock, nova etc). It has nothing to do with the launcher. And yes Nova status bar setting has been set to transparent. And yes shading has been set to off. It's clearly a setting from Samsung. So has anyone figure out how to disable this setting ?
Here is what we are talking about :
Finally a crazy solution!
For all of you who hate the gradient that Samsung puts on the status bar here is a "crazy" solution :
Samsung doesn't apply this effect when a live wallpaper is used! So you must :
1) Download the multipicture live wallpaper from playstore ( don't worry, it doesn't consume battery )
2) In the settings of the app do the following :
a. Select a single picture ( the one that you want to set as wallpaper ) , not an album of course.
b. Uncheck "show reflection" ( top and bottom )
c. Uncheck "double tap to change picture"
That's it! The ugly gradient is gone! Tested with Nova launcher but i am almost sure that it will work with any launcher.

After Oreo update the problem is fixed so there is no need any more to use any live wallpaper for this matter.
I searched thoroughly and couldn't find a thread or a fix. Where do we edit the quick settings in the notification pulldown? Mine is blank, and I don't readily see it in Settings, nor is there an edit function in the pulldown. Suggestions?
You don't have the editing pencil icon on there?

Nah, it's straight blank...
Someone else here solved that by rebooting the phone. Afterward the pencil icon appeared and they were able to set it up. Can't remember which thread at this point.
I've rebooted twice. No success...
Pull down the notifications and then pull down again on the (blank for you currently) quicksettings section and you'll see pencil that lets you edit

Oddly enough, I was able to get the quick settings to show up on the lockscreen. I edited it from there, and voila. It's a wierd glitch...

Thanks for this. JUST picked up mine and was going crazy since I wasn't seeing the toggles. Very odd that it comes up blank like that out of the box.
Hey I found out the issue here. I had the same thing happen with the T-mobile variant. I did a factory reset and restored my google account and it was still missing. I did a second factory reset and didn't restore and sure enough it showed up. I then did the oneplus restore and nothing changed. I then got the phone unlocked and still no issue. After a restart everything was fine and then I did a google restore. I chose only to restore call logs and messages. The second it was done the quick settings disappeared again. This is clearly an issue with google and this device. Not sure if it's a T-Mobile issue specifically

Ah, thank you, that fixed it for me. Mine was looking just like yours. And when I locked the screen and then pulled down the notifications drawer, a pencil did appear which let me fix it all up.
I think I might know what broke it for me. When I upgraded my OnePlus 5 from OxygenOS 5.1.7 to 9.0.3, I still had jOnePlus Tools [adb/root] by JRoot3D.dev installed, and it was changing how many quick settings tiles are shown after one swipe down (in the single row). I think it was essentially doing this:
Code:
adb shell settings put secure sysui_qqs_count 8
When I used the app to change that number, all my quick settings tiles disappeared. The app has not been updated in a while, so I'm going to keep it off my phone until it's updated for Android Pie
Just as a quick update on this. This is still a problem on the T-Mobile device on 9.0.13 fully stock.
I guess this must then mean that the quick setting cannot be hidden on the lockscreen...

Actually, I think I found a better solution here.
The trick seems to be that on the unlocked version of the shade, the pencil and user switcher icons only show up when you expand the QS panel. However, if you don't have enough icons in the panel to force the need for the additional row (there is a little hint that shows up when you drag an icon that indicates that you need at least 6 icons), then you can't swipe it down, and there no icons or any warning of any sort are shown.
The shade on the lockscreen doesn't appear to enforce that icon minimum, so the pencil and user switcher show up fine (perhaps this is due to the fact that on the lockscreen, the notifications themselves don't live in the shade as they do when the device is unlocked).
It also seems like older OOS versions didn't enforce that icon minimum, so if you only had, say 4 icons (not sure who would do that), then did an upgrade, you would have this strange behavior.
