Yo how’d our hommie sideofburritos get old school quick access on GrapheneOS? Is this just an old version? The video’s only a year old! So I’m on GOS Android 13 (aka big dumb quick access button purgatory), totally confused and totally jealous. I can only imagine an out of touch board testing a new android version and telling the developers to make the buttons bigger and dumber while they tell their managers “okay, we can do that” while they die a little inside. This is the most egregious design offense committed in the history of AOSP.
Please tell me this can be fixed with System UI Tuner or some other bullshit that doesn’t kill my battery life or privacy.
What exactly is the issue here?
It has no way to disable the text, even though EVERY android user knows these symbols forever. It only makes sense in some toggles.
No seperate internet toggles… so stupid.
The Android 11 menu really is so good…
LineageOS maintains these fixes:
- seperate internet toggles
- old navigation bar(I think)
- long press for torch
Such a quality of life improvement
Are you saying you like the big buttons? Because Android 12 is when they were introduced.
I’m confused. Quick access was introduced in Android 4 and those buttons were huge.

Gosh, yeah. I vaguely remember having a custom ROM for my ZTE Blade which gave me quick access icons. Seem to recall I could display certain widgets there, too.
Sorry, Android 12 added the new Quick Setting tile called “Internet” that combined the Wi-Fi and Mobile Data tiles. Yeah you’re right, I had big square QS buttons on my old Galaxy S4 but when I switched to Pixel it had the small circular buttons for a short period.
I do like them
No oops, I hate it. I think Android 11 was it when it was just working.
I liked the small circular QS buttons best from everything they’ve put out so far. If they brought those back and had an option to remove the button titles, I’d be happy.
yeah I do and Im tired of pretending I dont
I don’t really see why people prefer the old toggles, but I don’t think you can get the old buttons back in normal Android. You’ll have to write a patch yourself and apply it to the GrapheneOS branch, or you can try accomplishing the same thing with a Magisk overlay.
There are a few mods that can add more and smaller toggles if you want.
If you don’t want these two apps and can be bothered to compile your own ROM (long live open source!) you can edit
packages/SystemUI/res/values/config.xmland updatequick_qs_panel_max_tilesandquick_qs_panel_max_rowsto quickly make the tiles smaller.I tried Shizuku and was able to get it to work with Better Internet Tiles, which allowed me to split out the Data and WiFi tiles. When I tried Fabricate Overlay, it kept crashing when I went to save the overlay.
How do you edit the config.xml file that you suggested? Does that require root?
