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.

  • 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.xml and update quick_qs_panel_max_tiles and quick_qs_panel_max_rows to 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?
