I've read here that some are using Xposed module App Settings on their Z...
I know well the module because I was using it for some years BUT I'm not able to have it working on my Z... Simply it has no effect at all on apps...
I've seen on Android permissions it has a special one that is reported disabled, but if I turn it on, after going out of the setting it turns off again...
Any solution?
Solved: on Moto Z it requires a system boot to apply settings.
It wasn't needed on KitKat...

I don't know why 4.2 didn't have an option to reboot the device, i am pretty used to having this option on my phones i have had for the last 2 or 3 of them and was hoping this 4.3 update would finally give the option on this tablet.
i can't understand why it wouldn't be there as it's a bit of a pain when you do want to restart it.
can anyone let me know.
thanks

Probably not.
Root your tablet, install xposed framework and install advanced power menu module.
Enable the module, reboot et voila...problem solved.
Happy holidays.
if you are in 4.3 ... wait we can root our tablet z

Don't forgot we're on XDA, some bright dev will figure it out soon enough.
They always do.
See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588442
Like I said before, they always do!
So, to answer your question:
1. follow the steps in the link posted above.
2. Install Xposed framework http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
3. Install Advanced power menu module
4. PROFIT!
Enjoy!
You can also install Xposed module GravityBox instead.
Besides the power menu, it gives many more options, and together with the module Xperia Flip Settings the status bar can be modified to look and behave nearly like AOSP.
Also GravityBox has the option to use Expanded Desktop, i.e. hide the navigation bar.

Jep, Gravitybox is an excellent module but since the OP was only asking for an advanced power menu I figured to just point him to that direction.
But indeed, tons more functionality in gravitybox.
Actually u can do the following hot key combination without root: hold volume up + power button wthis will restart any Android device in the world or if u have root install advanced menu from xposed

That forces the device to shut down. It is like pressing and holding the power button on a PC. The device doesn't do all the processes needed for a safe shutdown. So, yeah, just use that in case the device is stuck.
Assuming switching to 2G actually save battery. How can I do this? I see an option in tasker, but it wont let me use it. I dont see anything mentioning 2g in "secure setting" plugin.
Can I use this this?
Or this (with xposed framework)

xposed + Gravitybox module
Gravity box from the play store complains about system framework with Xposed installed and that module enabled.

Then you install xposed, have it install the needed files, activate gravitybox. With gravity box you can have it autoe switch between 2g/3g, it will add a 2g/3g toggle, give an expanded power menu and a number of other features.
Doh !! I hadn't rebooted. I can get to gravity box now. I looked everywhere. Where is the 25th option?
Thanks.

Darn auto correct. I meant, where is the 2g option in Gravity box? I looked in all the settings, and see no mention of 2g.

I want to report an issue with Greenify (2.7.1) which causes space-swype on the Samsung Keyboard to be disabled.
The phone: Galaxy Note 2, custom recovery, rooted, stack ROM.
The Greenify app works perfectly, but when XPOSED experimental features are enabled and ticked ON via Settings->My Device->Accessibility: Services - Greenify, the Samsung keyboard won't change the language = one cannot swype the spacebar to change the language.
Once this Service is enabled no matter what - the keyboard issue will remain permanent.
How it is solved now: Uninstall Greenify via Xposed: Works. Then Reinstall Greenify via Play Store but DO NOT TOUCH the Service-Greenify.
Questions: is it real bug? How can one solve it without reinstalling the app? Any other technical ideas are highly welcome.
@Notizer:
Which mode are you using? The Accessibility setting needs to be enabled only if you are using non rooted mode according to the Dev. So if you are using root or boost mode, do not enable Greenify in Accessibility setting. You should not lose any functionality because of that.

I am rooted phone, but actually I do not know what " does rooted mode" mean - I did not see any "mode" in Greenify itself. For the best of my understanding I run a rooted mode.
(What do you mean by "Dev"?).

Greenify has three modes, 'Non Root, 'Root' and 'Boost'. You can access them by clicking the three dot menu on top right side of Greenify app and then clicking Experimental Features. The first option is the mode. Set it to 'Boost' if you have Xposed and have enabled Greenify in Xposed. Disable Greenify in Accessibility and then check your issue. By the way, do you have the donation package of Greenify or the free version?
Dev means the developer of the app, in this case oasisfeng.

Oh, thanks! Never knew that I can tap on "Working Mode" in Greenify! I use a free version.
So, I have Exposed and I enabled the Greenify module there, next I came back to Greenify itself and changed the Mode to Boost.
Could you please explain what the Greenify in Accessibility menu serves for?

I am not sure but I think that it enables Greenify to have access to notifications so that the relevant app can be woken up when a notification is received.
Is your problem solved? By the way, did you reboot after enabling Greenify in Xposed?

Hm, it is very interesting what is the function of this "Greenify" accessibility feature...
Since it was quite a pain to solve the swipe issue I did not enable again the Greenify in accessibility menu - I need the phone in full functionality now.
Probably I'll try to play with this feature later, but it was one-way road - I could not switch it off, thus again... I decided to postpone these "jokes"...

Since you are now using boost mode, you don't have to enable Greenify in Accessibility.

I have the same problem after the last update with my Galaxy S3. If I enable accessibility it doesn't change the language on the keyboard, and if I disable the accessibility, it doesn't let me to stop any app that I select to stop. No-root device, no-root mode for greenify.
Any solutions for that?
Thanks

Have you granted permissions to Greenify using adb? If so, the app should work.

Hi,
i like the NFC Feature, but it doesn't work when the device is locked. i should work mit the smart lock feature in android lollipop, but on my z2 works 4.4.2 (stock-rom; rooted) and at the moment i don't want to update. is there any other way to use nfc-tags even if the device is locked?
the only solution i found: disable keylock using a app like wi-fi matic. after that (at home of course) i can enable the display without pin and can use the nfc-tags. bt i hope there is a better solution.
pieremallao
Starting with LP they disabled nfc when screen is off to prevent malicious code-injection or whatever...
It Is a mess...
But you are lucky - if you stay at KK or below, you could just unlock with nfc-tag while screen was off (using xposed-module "nfc lockscreen off enabler").
You have to install xposed of course for this to work.

Had the same problem. Xposed-module (NFC LockScreenOff) is working perfect for me.
Hi guys,
I'm using the smart lock/unlock feature on a Android 6 phone. But I can only select 30mins for the unlock-state, and smart unlock is very unrelyable.
My problem is that for using GooglePay, I have to set a lockscreen. But throughout the day I'd prefer having the screen always unlocked. Only in case I active NFC, I want the lockscreen to be active.
So maybe there is a way I could change the 'lock_screen_lock_after_timeout' settings to eg a couple of days (or even endless)?
Thanks
I faced the exact same issue.
I ended up following your suggestion and setting lock_screen_lock_after_timeout to several days.
It works, however the screen doesn't lock at all, which means when you press the power button you you will get straight to the launcher or whatever app was launched. Some people will be OK with it, but personnally I miss the "swipe to unlock" feature.
edit: I just noticed you are on Android 6. In that case, you could use Xposed in conbination with the lockscreen disabler module. It will let you disable the lock screen and trick Google pay into thinking it is enabled. It used to work great on my previous phone. Sadly, Xposed trips Safetynet so Google Pay will most likely refuse to work.
Can I use Xposed without root? Cause I don't want to root my phone just for that feature.
How did you set the property? Do you use any app?
The problem is, I know the property to be set, but I don't know how to achieve that
