Hi Guys,
I was checking one feature video of Galaxy S3 and found one menu option in settings called 'samsung unlock options', I didnt found on my phone.Does anyone know where to get that?
I noticed when trying to setup custom wake up commands. I video tutorial was advising to go to this option but was not within my phone.
It was in settings - security if you are looking for the same thing?
I guess you mean the "wake in Samsung-unlock" (or whatever the correct translation is) in S-Voice's Settings menu?
Hi, I am trying to build a custom rom that has developer mode -> Mock locations=true, Auto-rotate screen=false by default. Here is what I have tried:
Pulled the settings database from `data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases`
Edited the database so that the mock locations flag was set to 1
Wrote a script to add to the makefile that would move the new database to `/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases` on build.
and
Adb push the new database file to proper location
Reboot
Neither of these options seemed to work out properly. I need an option to set some of the settings, including the hidden Developer option "enable mock locations" so that I can build an image with these settings enabled by default. If anyone can help, would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

I am also looking for this. Being able to access adb on a fresh install on a device that has trouble getting into recovery would be very beneficial.
I had to flash back to factory stock this morning because the kernel I was using prevented me from accessing the bootloader and the ROM I was developing was missing a key apk. Had this had been built into the ROM, I could have been able to reboot to recovery.

Background Information:
I was reading on Sammobile this morning about issue with S6 sometimes loosing it's notification toggles. I thought I was the only one facing this issue as I have a S6 Port on my Note 3 few weeks ago.
http://www.sammobile.com/2015/06/15...ng-from-the-galaxy-s6-and-the-galaxy-s6-edge/
I started looking around into the SecSettings smali files and I noticed a lot has changed on S6 SecSettings compared with other Samsung phone model. There use to be a smali file on the original Note 3 SecSettings where you can add some toggles but that is now missing on S6.
I started looking into Settings.db and I noticed one of the system parameter is missing. I added the parameter using sqllite editor and added some toggles as I want. I also updated the toggle list on the other two parameters and like magic, everything has been working fine since then.
What you will need:
1. A rooted s6 / S6 Edge. Also works for other S6 Ports.
2. SqlLite Editor. I used the paid version. I am not sure if the free version can do the same task. There should also be other free DB editor application that could do the same task.
Steps:
1. Install SqlLite Editor: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor&hl=en
2. Open the app and look for "Setting Storage" entry
3. Select "Setting Storage" and then select settings.db
4. Next select "system". This is the last item on the list
5. Tap on the search icon and search for "notification" and select "OK"
6. Tap on the Plus sign "+" to add new parameter
7. Under name, type the following: "notification_panel_default_active_app_list"
8. In the Value filed, type all the toggle you want in there. I usually do a copy and past from a text file to avoid any mistake
9. Hit the same button
10. Select "notification_panel_active_app_list" and paste / type the same value as 8 above and save.
11. You could do the same for "notification_panel_default_active_app_list_for_rest"
Additionally, you could increase the number of scroll-able toggles from 10 to any value you want. I usually have it at 20. The parameter you need is the "notification_panel_active_number_of_apps"
You can also add SFinder and QuickConnect to the toggle list and you can then get rid of those two in the drop down to have more space in the notofication area.
I have provided a list of the toggle I commonly use as a text. Please note that some toggles might not be relevant to the rom you're using and might not work of do anything when toggled. E.g. Don't expect touch to work if it hasn't been implemented in your rom version etc.
You can never loose any toggle again and you can more as needed.......

I am stuck already as I don't have that entry.
I understand that in Italian it is probably named differently, but even looking at the icon used in your screenshot I can't find it.
Wtf...

It might not be called the same name but there is no phone without a setting database. Do this:
Open sqllite editor and go to the "files" tab. Then navigate to /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases and select the "settings.db". Just like in the attachment.

I did everything, saved, rebooted and the changes do not apply.

Not works for me... Nothing change
EDIT: it works but you have to reboot after the change without opening the navbar
It's working, S6 Edge (925F) added back MobileData toggle. @oluwaponmile, nice find, thank you!!!
PS: used SQLite free version, "notification_panel_default_active_app_list" line is already there, just added "MobileData;" in values and a reboot after change, normally...
I have to correct my previous reply.
Every editing got applied but the value in notification_panel_active_number_of_apps which keeps staying at 7.
Could that be the reason for no success?

NO ROOT REQUIRED
Samsung released today an app to fix this problem. It's in Galaxy Apps and it's called "QuickPanel Restore". It restores all missing toggles.

I tried in every way but the file does not show up, I tried to transfer it to my pc but it is empty..
Any suggestions ?
The settings.db file is empty?
The settings.db file is empty on Galaxy s7 sprint G930P, any advise?
settings.db empty here as well...
I have j700p and Settings.db is empty , there is any solution ??
For those of you who's carriers have disabled the Guest mode and Multiple Users mode you can easily turn it back on provided your phone IS rooted and you're capable of editing the build.prop file in the /system folder.. This feature comes in handy when your family or friends want to use your phone and you don't want them to be snooping through your stuff! Add this to your build.prop file
#
# Multi-Users
#
fw.max_users=3
fw.show_multiuserui=1
And then reboot the phone and upon turning back on swipe down from the top quick settings and you'll see a new option (circle picture) next to the system icon gear.. Tap that and check it out..
As always, make sure you make a backup first since you never know if anything could possibly go wrong!
I have the unlocked Note. Is guest mode disabled on the unlocked version? Or do I need to root to enable it? Thanks!

You should be able to see a picture right next to the system icon gear in the quick settings menu. If you can't tap on it then you don't have it and the only way I know of to get it is with root access to change the build.prop file.
No Icon visible
Hello. My Note8 is rooted. After changing Build.prob, I can add users, but not switch. The Icon in Task bar is missing. I checked the Build.prob. entrys. They are correct. Any help?

Hi!
I have the same problem!!!
Did you fix it?
same here...
Go to settings - About - Click on device name several times - You've become a developer
Go to settings - Account & security - Enable ADB
I was able to install apps from phone using ES File Explorer =)
