Manufacturer-skinned versions of Android have this feature already, but not stock Android, nor the majority of AOSP-based ROMs. This module adds an icon to your status bar when you plug in a pair of headphones, then automatically removes it when you unplug. Theres even some theming options, so you can choose the indicator icon yourself.

No computer, no root, no shady apps — you can now remove any bloatware app with nothing other than your phone.
Since it relies on the new Wireless Debugging feature built into Android, this method works on most Android 9 or higher devices. Some OEMs disabled it on Android 9 and 10, but all OEMs have it in their Android 11 builds.

![Get Android Nougat on Your Nexus Right Now [How-To]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fnr_8-p-V18/mqdefault.jpg "Get Android Nougat on Your Nexus Right Now [How-To]
How to Get Android 7.0 Today [Non-Root Guide]
Full Tutorial: http://bit.ly/GetNougatNow
Subscribe to Gadget Hacks: http://goo.gl/XagVI
In this video, Ill be showing you how to update your Nexus device from Marshmallow to Android 7.0 Nougat using the OTA sideload method.
As it stands, youll likely have to wait up to 3 weeks for the Android Nougat to hit your Nexus device, because Google is releasing the update on a staged rollout. But the OTA ZIPs (the same exact update youre waiting on) have already been captured for most Nexus devices, so you can actually install Nougat right now.
Youll only need a Windows PC and a USB data cable to use this method, and you can have it done in less than 30 minutes. The actual work is pretty easy, too, so theres no reason to wait.
This wont work for rooted devices, because its the same as getting an OTA update, only faster, so youll have to use Nexus Root Toolkit like always. But if youre not rooted, this OTA sideload method is definitely the way to do it.

How to Get Android Ns Rumored Navigation Buttons [Root]
Full Tutorial: http://bit.ly/nougatnav
Subscribe to Gadget Hacks: http://goo.gl/XagVI
In this video, Ill be showing you a pair of options for getting the new, rumored navigation buttons from the upcoming release of Android Nougat.
The new buttons were first reported by Android Police, and theyre pretty confident that the new style will be included with Android N. Its basically the same buttons, just filled in with solid white, and with four Google-colored dots nested up against the home button.
These two themes can give you the new Android N on-screen navigation keys on a Marshmallow device, but a bit of setup beforehand is needed. One uses Layers/RRO, the other uses CyanogenMods Theme Engine. For guides on both of those topics, see the Requirements section at my full tutorial.
