Hi,
I am using:
Galaxy S2
Cyanogenmod 7.1
I need a shortcut from my homescreen to:
Settings > Call Settings > Additional Settings.
Long-Hold on Homescreen > Custom Shortcut > Pick your Activity > Activities > Settings
gives me a BUNCH of options to set as a shortcut except the one i need =(
Is there some solution to my problem?
Thank You
Not all settings are able to have shortcuts unfortunately, and there's nothing you can do. The same goes for the Samsung ROMs as well.

New the samsung so I'm not sure if this is even possible but is there any way to edit the 4 quick launch (phone, messaging, S-memo, camera) in the lock screen?
Found it.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Settings -> Security -> Lock Screen Options -> Shortcuts
Note: This might be a Samsung specific setting, I dunno.
I'm new to Android, so making a custom shortcut or script to do something like that is currently out of reach. According to a little research, there is a command (requires root) to toggle "Negative colors". I have tested it and it does work (even though it blocks the regular method from changing that setting until the device is restarted).
echo 1 > /sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/negative
What would be the most user-friendly application to make a shortcut to do that?
Or is there some other way to more quickly and easily toggle Settings > Accessibility > Negative colors?
Thanks.
Just a quick question is Nova Launchers animation speed option not working for everyone else? No matter what I pick it is always stays the same (quite a bit slower than the stock launcher)
Working fine here
The option still isn't working for me. Any advice?
You can always change animation speed in developer options: settings > about phone > tap build number 7 times > settings > system > developer options
Have you ever been in such an annoying situation that app notifications are not displayed on the lock screen? The following is the solution I summarized, hope that will be helpful.
Cause 1: Face unlock is enabled on your phone.
• When the unlock mode is set to Direct unlock, message content will be hidden when the screen is locked in order to protect your privacy.
• When the unlock mode is set to Slide to unlock and Smart lock screen notifications is enabled, message contents will be hidden when the screen is locked in order to protect your privacy.
Solution:
If you wish to display message contents when using Face unlock:
• EMUI 8.X: Go to Settings > Security & privacy > Face unlock, enter the lock screen password, and disable Smart lock screen notifications.
• EMUI 9.0 and Magic UI 2.0.1: Go to Settings > Security & privacy > Face Unlock or Settings > Security & privacy > Face recognition, enter the lock screen password, and disable Smart lock screen notifications.
You can also set the unlock mode to Fingerprint ID or Password.
Cause 2: Show but hide contents is enabled.
Solution:
EMUI 8.X: Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > Notifications management > Batch management > Lock screen notifications, and select Display all notifications.
EMUI 9.0, EMUI 9.0.1, and Magic UI 2.0.1: Go to Settings > Notifications > Lock screen notifications, and select Display all notifications.
Cause 3: Notifications turn on screen is not enabled when using Magazine unlock.
Solution:
To enable Apply:
EMUI 8.X/9.0/9.0.1: Go to Themes > Customize > Lock screen style, select Magazine unlock, and touch Apply.
Magic UI 2.0.1: Go to Themes > Customize > Lock screen style, select Magazine unlock, and touch Apply.
To enable Notifications turn on screen, go to:
Magic UI 2.0.1: Settings > Notifications > More notification settings > Notifications turn on screen
EMUI 9.0/9.0.1: Settings > Notifications > More notification settings > Notifications turn on screen
EMUI 8.X: Settings > Apps & notifications > Notifications & status bar
EMUI 5.X: Settings > Notifications & status bar.And enable Notifications turn on screen.
Cause 4: Lock screen notifications is not enabled for this app. Apps that do not have this feature enabled will not cause the screen to light up upon receiving a new message or notification.
Solution:
Go to:
Magic UI 2.0.1: Settings > Notifications > Notifications
EMUI 9.0/9.0.1: Settings > Notifications > Notifications
EMUI 8.X: Settings > Apps & notifications > Notifications management
EMUI 5.X: Settings > Notifications & status bar > Notifications management
Enable allow notifications and Lock screen notifications for apps as needed.
Cause 5: The message content has been hidden for the third-party app.
Solution:
Enable the app's notification switch to show message content.
If the issue remains unresolved, back up your data and restore your phone to factory settings.
I want a button on the home screen that executes the following : "open Settings > Display > Screensaver > click on Start Now button " Is this possible?
If you can't find another way then use Activity Launcher.
Activity Launcher - Apps on Google Play
Launches hidden activities and creates shortcuts for installed apps
