[Q] Settings app in phone mode? - Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My settings app have been in Phone UI since the 4.4.2 update (still on 4.4.4).

Is there any way you can change it back to the tablet UI version (that was before 4.4.X updates).

It doesn't work well with Xperia firmware at the moment: it tries to use dark theme (I have to change the theme, since the default one is single-pane only. If I would use default one, the giant padding on left and right will be around each pane etc.), resulting in white text on white background.

Thanks for the replies,
But i do not have my tablet unlocked or rooted at this time.
Thanks anyway for the help.

[Q] Issues after getting HyDrOG3N 4.0.4

Hey there everyone.
I have an issue after upgrading from 2.3.7 to HyDrOG3N's 4.0.4.
Previously, I was using some features of GO Launcher. Including the screenlock.
Now, after upgrading to 4.0.4, I realized I don't need GO Launcher as Android 4.0 gives a lot of the same features, so I removed it. But I still got this when I turn on the screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Any combination will work to open this screenlock, and I can't seem to manage to remove it!!!
I tried searching all options and settings.
Would appreciate some help.
Using only the rom, no additional launchers or screenlocks (unless it somehow passed with TitaniumBackup, I didn't find any)
Thanks!
Go into settings>security and change the screen lock, if that doesn't work you probably have to go back to 2.3.7 and remove the pattern lock and then install your new rom.

Help hiding the VPN icon in Touchwiz

In stock Android previous to 5.0 the VPN icon appears as an annoying persistent key in the top left like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After 5.0 they moved it as a system icon to the right and it can be turned off or adjusted.
It looks like this:
It seems like in Touchwiz they never updated this and the key is still on the left. Even if you're using 5.1.1 (I assume 6.0 will be the same.)
---
2 Questions:
1) Without rooting, is there a way to remove or hide that icon?
2) Is there a way to file a bug or ticket with Samsung to let them know to fix this in the new Touchwiz? Or some other way of contacting them?
1) Long press on the notification and see if you can disable the notifications there.
2) ha Good luck with that.

Problem with black themes

Hi
Since I've installed oreo I see issues with black themes such as MINU's Black V2.
It appears at least in two locations.
1. Battery usage
2. Contact details
In first location everything is black/dark as should be but battery usage chart has white background.
In second location everything is black too but frames are white.
Anyone knows how to correct it?
I don't want use substratum/andromeda cause it needs PC connection after phone restart
