sean (1) oh yeah, i had completely forgotten about the music widget space that goes unused most of the time. Definitely true, there should be a way to expand the tiles to that area when there is no playback controls in use.
But on a side note, i dig the no text quick settings. I am not a person who needs the label once i got used to it, but i also know that this is not the the same for all users. And to be honest, some tiles should require the label as it would contain important information such as wifi and Bluetooth.
The bottom line is whether we need it or not should be our decision to make instead of the manufacturers’, thats what Android customisation is all about.
