App to call notification bar?

On such a large screen, it is difficult to reach for the notification bar at top. Task switchers like wave launcher and swipepad can be used to set a button in them to call notification bar, but I'm unable to find such an app. (I got home and lock set this way though).
Anyone knows an app that toggles the notification?

I don't know of such an app, but in GO Launcher EX and some other launchers you can set it up so the notification bar drops down when you swipe down anywhere on a home screen. I've been using this on all my Androids and I love it because like you say, it's hard to reach the bar sometimes. If I try a new launcher and it doesn't support this I uninstall it immediately.

I know launchers can do it, but that is when you are at home screen.
However, with swipepad/wave launcher, a shortcut can be assigned to app for notification toggle. I have done that for home and lock buttons, refer to screenshot.

Thanks. Swipepad is now complete, with lock, home, notification and app drawer.

I'm stretching it but is there any way to clear notifications from anywhere other than the notification bar?

One more app: status bar expander
(better icon that hello status bar)

Dude! Hell yes please !

Looks exactly like Taskarou Launcher to me.
Test: it's actually pretty good, pretty small on tablets and the icons are too big but otherwise really nice.

Didn't know about taskerou. google really had an awesome idea with browser quick controls.
I can definitely add an option for size

cyanogenmod options

Is there a way to get cyanogenmod options like having the extra settings options or swiping in the right corner to bring up quick settings screen instead of notifications without installing the cyanogenmod rom?

Not yet. You'll have to wait for CM11 nightlies or start working on your own.

I would perfer to keep the stock rom, I just want the extra menus and options like that.

actually the default quick settings would be fine I just want to be able to edit what goes in there also Is there a way to edit the buttons so a long press on home does something different

Feature Request: Screen Capture

I use Pandora radio a lot and when it actually plays a song I like I use the home+power key to save the screens image. I've come to find that is currently not a feature on the omni ROM and would greatly appreciate getting it added in. By the way I'm using sprints galaxy note 2
Thanks in advance
Chris Loving

volume down + power doesn't work for you?

Screenshot and screen record are part of OmniROM already. They can be added to the power-button menu (Settings >Menus), as well as, for example, the long-press Home-button pop-up (Settings > Bars >Quick launch shortcuts)

Hey @jeffsf I dont have the option to use the homebutton to take screenshots I just dont have that option, Do I need to go somewhere else, I am using 4.4.2 on N7100

You should already have it on a brief press of power and volume-down at the same time ("chord"), be able to add it to your long-press-power menu, or to the long-press-home. Unless there is something strange with the Note II, all options should be there for you.
Here's where to get to "Quick launch shortcuts" to set it as one of the long-press-home options.

Question navbar button binding?

would like to assign apps to the buttons like longpress home for camera or longpress back for screenshot. is this possible? magisk?
also is there a way to make the torch turn on with the screen off by pressing the power button? im coming from oneplus 9 pro and it had all this. would be nice to have it again on the ultra. thanks;

There is button remapping available, some for stock Samsung's I believe. Example. Do some Google searches include xda to pull up results from here.
For display on use One Handed Operation plus from the Galaxy store. One of my favorite apps.
Very versatile. Almost no battery usage.
