hey guys, i'm looking for a tool that implements a bluetooth slider into the lock screen. i really hate that i always have to unlock my device, start the comm manager, activate bluetooth, close the task manager..... only to activate bt for my free speech car kit. maybe one of you guys knows a tool a implements a slider into the lockscreen with which you can activate bt by a single slide without unlocking the device. regards, insi

I don't think it's possible at this stage, there are numbers of tweaks to change the color of the lockslider, appearance of slifer, appointments, transparency's etc, but actually adding a shortcut to, for example bluetooth, is not possible yet.
Hey very cool idea!
I like it - hope it is possible.
MaTT
i could look like the call answer slider for example: one direction is unlock, the other one bluetooth toggle... just an idea of mine...

Some devices like Omnia, don't have led notification.
So, the only way to have info about BT activation should be icon in upper iconnbar (not in traybar, because with manila it is not visible).
Wi-Fi do it. But BT not.
The icon is present in dll (it shows when received a file), but non show when set BT on.
There is a way to make it?
Same question in reverse
I have the same question in reverse
I recently flashed a custom ROM that added this icon and do not like it. It serves no purpose for me (I always have bluetooth on, and clicking the icon does nothing anyway). I can't figure out how to get rid of it.
Searching for "Icon" in the registry did not even hit anything.
i'm not into omnia at all, but there are a few threads dealing with changing taskbar icons, maybe you can find info there about how to add the icon and change its looks.

The OP does not want to *change* the icon, he does not have it at all and wants it there. And I am the opposite, I *have* the icon and want to totally remove it.
It's an icon that shows whenever bluetooth is turned on.
There is some way to turn the bluetooth icon on and off, because the last ROM I had (which was the same WinMO version) did not have the icon, and this one does.
EDIT: Also before anyone asks - I have no bluetooth apps in Windows/Startup, so it is not that.

hehe, it's controlled by some dlls.. but first thing you should do is to download Advanced Configuration 3.3 by Schaps and DISABLE the phone skin
the op needs to do the opposite.

Argh, really? I really like my skin... why would the phone skin affect the bluetooth icon?
you can notice that when you install different dialers, you also get different taskbar icons... that's why with the dialer, some dlls are supplied.

If I disable my phone skin, my dialer is now all busted
If this icon is supplied by some DLL, can I delete the one in question? Or replace it?
try battery status,theres loads of options like having wifi,cellular,and bt icon in bottom tray.From there it shows if its on/off/discoverable ,you can even iniate ad2p from the icon.

I use Manilla2d so I don't have a bottom tray.
I am talking about the status icons at the top.
which device do you have?
i recommend using the new iolite phone canvas.. it has the BT icon with the skin enabled by default..

No comment.
And i tryed last iolite phone canvas, but it is QVGA, not WQWGA (omnia is 240x400) so don't show very well.
But BT icon works
So, i have Omnia, i have default Win phone Skin, and i think it's not easy to have the BT icon in iconbar if i don't have a good phone canvas
But the question is: can i use simply the dll and its associate keys for obtain it without change phone skin?
oops, i completely forgot it was an omnia.
I assume you can just apply the dlls..
i didn't deal with taskbar customization too much..
but as i told you, there are 2 threads, mentioned in an earlier post, you can find many icons and guidance there..
So... no one knows how to remove this icon if present? Maybe i should start a new thread with a better title.
I"ve also been trying to figure out how to get rid of the bluetooth symbol...
Is there a way to code a tool with following functions :
1) When a Call comes in switch ON Bluetooth automatically
2) When a Call is over switch OFF Bluetooth automatically
3) A toggle function Bluetooth "Automatic" ON/OFF
4) Bluetooth "Manual" ON/OFF toggle function
5) Bluetooth "Automatic" ON/OFF toggle function when connected to power
I hope a coder is intersted to do this
Or does anybody know an existing solution which has the functions explained above?
I hope my description is clear enough......
EDIT: Some guys here already started a related Projekt for the touch diamond with mort script. But they were no Coders. They only searched some Code snippets here and there and tried their luck.
Totally agree. Please add a poll to this thread.
5a) Bluetooth "Automatic" ON/OFF toggle function when connected to power ONLY when "ActiveSync" is detected to sync
Search for csdevctrl lock. I think it has those capabilities!
I need to...
Its a good idea!!!
Is there a hack to lock touch screen during a call? I tried the InCall Screen Tweak app. While it works, I still frequently trigger the notification area. It seems InCall Screen Tweak doesn't start up fast enough.
I'm wondering if there's a hack to put a slide lock during phone call? Something looks like this:

You need to enable sleep during call. Several of the tweak apps have a setting for this.
Also S2U2 would add lock slider to dialer.
As said already, S2U2s "Lock/sleep during call" option works just fine .
I've been trying to find out if there is anyway to use the CHT lock while in a call. So far, the only thing I have been able to find is to use S2U2. It works really well, but I'd like to be able to use the other lock screens too.
Or just press the power button at the top of your device after you've answered. It doesn't hang up, and if you need to use any of the in call features, you just press the power button
Is there anyway to set S2U2 to only lock on phone calls? I use Cookies Mod, and like his unlock screen, but if I use it in conjunction with S2U2, I have to unlock my phone first with S2U2 and then from Cookies. Anyone have any idea?
This app has it all:

What`s that "anti-noise" option? I don`t have that option on my td2!
What program has the tweak to turn off the screen? I've looked in B&B tweaks, Touch Tools, and also in CHT"s, with no avail.

The ability to toggle things on and off from the home screen have always been important to me. This is something I feel is major that WP7 doesn't have. I am looking for the ability to have a toggle switch to turn Wifi, bluetooth, airplane mode, and other similar things on and off from the home screen. In searching the closest thing I could find is this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7238403&highlight=toggle+switch#post7238403
If anyone knows about development of toggle switches or know if they are coming in the update that would be great. Thanks in advance.
Try attached file this contain toogle for.
airplane mode
wifi settings
bluetooth
data connection
location
Are these supposed to be toggle switches for the home screen or just open then settings for each individual application? For me this is taking it from three steps to turn Wifi on and off of only two steps. Thank you for the reply, and I absolutely love your registry thread, but I don't think this is what I am looking for. Please let me know if I am wrong.

No problem. You can do it yourself.
1. Rename the .xap file to .zip
2. Unzip the file
3. Open the unzipped folder
4. Replace the application and background icons with the icons of your choice (same size)
5. Zip all files again
6. Rename the new .zip file to .xap
7. Deploy
Personally I use Dinik Anastasia icons because on OMNIA 7 they look much better than the metro icons...

Not Switches
Once you go to settings and set each of these application you do not need a button on the home screen to get back to each individual setting. This is a waist of space for a home screen that is supposed to be clean. The switch would just turn it on and off from the home screen. I am not looking for a shortcut (and I know what one is), I am hoping to find someone working one toggle switches for the home screen.
What it would need to be is a program that runs a live tile. When the particular tile is clicked on the home screen it would have the program switch that particular connection on or off.
The look of the tile doesn't matter unless it is a useful tile.

better than this you don't get for the moment
I figured this when I searched and searched and couldn't find anything. I am hoping to spur somebody into working one this, or finding someone that already is. I was also hoping to find out if Microsoft was thinking about this.
What I would love is a one tap shortcut to 1 page with all the toggles. So instead of me going to setting- wifi - on I could go settings -on , this would apply for bluetooth, location, brightness, etc.
I swore I saw this app posted somewhere but so far all i could find are the individual app shortcuts.
PS If you're like me and actually use voice control all the time, I actually installed the wifi and location shortcuts but didn't pin them to the home screen I simple hold down the start button and say "Open Wifi" works like a charm!
I'm also waiting for a toggle feature. In fact its the only reason I haven't purchased a WP7 device yet.
As soon as there's an easy way to toggle data on/off I'm buying the HD7.
take a look .

The OP said 3 or 4 times that he doesn't want to have that, lucmar! And if you would read the first page you would see exactly that! He wants to have a toggle to switch it on/off! Is reading a post that hard?
Personally the live toggle tiles are a waste of space. My idea is to have the toggles in the menu bar that pops up when you press the volume buttons.
So you press the volume buttons, the menu pops up, you swipe left or right (same you get rid of notifications) and it brings up another part of the menu bar with access to all the common toggles.
The main advanage of this is that you can access the toggles from anywhere as the volume bar is OS wide so you don't have to quit your app/game to access the toggles unlike if you have live tiles.
This is a great idea and would be nice as an overall experience. This would take a lot of programming, and at the rate Microsoft is coming out with updates, this would not be done for another 2 or 3 years. That is why I can asking for a very simple program that turns on and off settings and has a toggle switch when pinned to the home screen. This would only take a day or two by an experience programmer. Anyone?

Hi everyone , I hope someone can help me with this.
I hope there's an app or way to do it.
Basically i want to know whether is possible to lock an app on the lock screen so that it can be used but you can't exit it or use other apps without inserting patter code or lock code.
In this case I would like to be able to have my playlist on the lock scree so that even if some of my friends handles the phone ,they'll be able to scroll through the list of songs and use the music player but won't be able to do anything else unless they unlock the device
is something like this possible?(at the moment there's a small widget at the top of the screen that can be used to pause,next songs etc when the lock screen is on but it doesn't allow to have more access to the app features such as playlist songs etc)
Thank you
any advice ?
Settings > Lockscreen and security > Other security settings > Pin windows.
Thank you so much Giocarro, this is exactly what I am looking for.
However, I have tried to check whether the function is available in tasker and can't seemt o find it.
I would like to aumate this so that when I'm in my car I can automatically get the music player open and pin it to the window using the script.
Are you aware of a way to do this through tasker or by any other method?
Thank you
I don't think it is possible, and I am a Tasker user, too.
The thing you can do is activate Settings app when you launch music app; I use this method to enable GPS when launching Maps.
i turn on gps when I open the map too but opening the setting app doesn't have any relevance here if I'm correct.
The settings to activate pin windows is a one of option.
the way windows are pinned is by pressing the recent button and then press on the pin icon on the bottom right side of the recent window you want to pin
This last stage is a bit annoying if it can't be done without a script, however this option that allows to pin apps is quiet useful.
thank you
Only way I could think of doing what you want would be to use Tasker "Send intent" feature, but I am not a developer so don't know whether there is an 'intent' for pinning the current app or not.
