hi guys
I was searching youtube and i saw a video about 2.2.1 froyo on x10.
but something was interesting in this video. this guy had reboot button on his power control widget.
just want to know how can I add it to the widget.?
thank you
I think there is a reboot option when you use SwitchPro
There is a reboot option with Extended Controls, try that app out it's very useful. I would guess that's the app being used in the video you're talking about.

+1 to extended controls
Does Extended Controls still have the bluetooth button being stuck issue on the new 2.1? I had to go to Switchpro for that reason on the 1.6.

Possible to get the flashlight .apk from Froyo? I really like that flashlight app. Would it work on 2.1?

Anytime Just double check and let me know if it works.
it works well. would there be a possibility of having a widget for it similar to the 4g, BT and GPS ones?

There's an app on the market called led light(or something like that) that gives you the sense looking widgets. Only thing is that the app graphic looks like crap. So I went in and changed the graphic to the HTC one lol.
PM me if you want it. I don't want to upload someone else's work with my changes w/out his permission.
Works great on DC 3.2.3.
Thanks.
In case anyone cares, I tested it with cm6. It installs, works great.
I dont see any link! Is it cuz im using the xda app?

It will install but no actually work on the DX with the 2/2 OTA
FWIW I used to use LED Light until it's graphic conflicted with my new theme. Now I use 'Extended Controls' (~$1) that is a pretty damn customizable power control widget (wifi/3G/etc) that also has a button to make the LED light up.
It may not be worth the money for just the light, but since you can customize your power control widget to any size and any number of controls + unobtrusive LED light, I'd say it's worth it.
Sigh... I can't even link a pic of it because I'm still a noob.
EDIT: I actually don't know if it will work on 2.1 either - I don't see a minimum version requirement. Also, I thought I'd list it's 'controls' - MANY more than stock lets you play with. (Another reason it's worth the $1)

Hi I was watching a browser speed test video on androidcentral and they had a galaxy s phone and when they pulled down the notification bar at the top were a set of power buttons letting you turn on blue tooth, wifi or gps from any screen (really useful IMO)
So i ws wondering if this was part of touchwiz or an app or something we can port to the droid x. I find myself wantng to turn on wifi bt and gps alot in apps and ont want to go to the home screen to do it. i think this is so cool, anyone can elaborate?
thanks!
i believe it's part of touchwiz and it IS very handy. i don't use it all the time but it's a lot easier than finding the screen with the quick toggles.....if you're even using them.
Yea my friend has the one for T-mobile and i didnt' know it till i pulled down the notification bar, and I thought the same thing...sooo useful. I use my phone for navi a lot and it's annoying to go through screens to find the widget.
Quick Desk Beta
Check out the app Quick Desk Beta its essentially the same idea but instead of pulling your notification bar down you double press your home button and it pulls up a transparent screen that you can put any widgets on like wifi toggle or your music player. I used it all the time with my D1 when id be on a web page and forget to turn wifi on or want to listen to music while on the web but not want to go home and find the widgets then back to browser. I just got the DX and haven't tried it yet on it im still figuring out all these new moto blur things but i would think it should work with the DX. Hope that helps you out alittle

thanks i will check it out, but i do once in a while use the double tap of the home button for voice dial on my x, but that shouldnt b needed anymore once we get froyo and the new voice search app from google.
i still would like to have this in notification bar and wonder if it could be done as an app or as a theme mod or what. IF anyone has any ideas how this can be ported? maybe i can request a port in the DX android dev forum?
Yes a friend and my inlaws have the Galaxy and I would love to have something like this for the X.
Check out the app Quick Settings. Lets you put whatever settings in there you want. It's not as pretty, but really useful.

I would really love this too. I know the Galaxy S has it and certain ROMs have it but I'm not willing to root my DX quite yet.
i use quick settings as well, works really good.
Also you can download the app called Homesmack which can allow you to program the search hard button on the X to bring up the quick settings app. pretty convenient when i want to turn on wifi or bluetooth etc on the fly and saves space on home screens

I use Power Control Plus - can't post a link yet, apparently, but it's easily googled.
It's awesome.
this is the only feature i miss from when i had my Captivate.....i can only hope the guys at team defuse can get this to work on the X!
I use MySettings. It works very well.

i think i mispelled it, the software mightve been called quickdesk but i uninstalled it after a few days as i found it caused my phone to lag and reboot. I normally just use widget locker if i really need media controls and ive found it to be a semi usable solution.
I would love it but u can onli have a status switch till now
Are there any app like scrollable news widget but i want that app controls my media volume when i scroll my finger on, it increases or decreases my media volume. It can be 2x1 widget. Can u make like an application?

I've been searching for the same thing but haven't been able to find anything. The closest I've found is a widget that opens the volume controls, which does me no good.

Thanks for answer. I hope somebody will do that. If i know making an application i would do and make some money)
I made an app that lets you adjust volume in a number of apps (including Netflix, Hulu+, Gallery Video, Amazon Video, Amazon mp3) by swiping along the side of the screen. You can also turn on boost mode to adjust volume up to 140%.
Here's the apk. It's free, but does contain an ad for a paid app of mine. Since it's Open Source, you can build your own copy without this ad.
I know there is already an app that lets you adjust volume by swiping, but I thought it would be nicer to have this active only in a few apps, so it doesn't get in the way in other apps.
I eventually hope to add a feature where you can select additional apps to the list where VolumeSwipe is active, but that's for the future. But if there is some popular video/audio playing app that I've left out, let me know.
This seems cool. What's the other app you're talking about?
thanks for the work you put in.

The other app is Volume Control, I'm not sure why the OP states that the other one (volume control) gets in the way since it has an auto-hide feature.

VolumeControl hides visually, but of course it's still there even when hidden, so it will get in the way if you want to tap on something in that area of the screen in an app. Ditto for my VolumeSwipe, except that the problem is minimized by the fact that VolumeSwipe is only active in a few apps.
Also, I think the narrowness of the VolumeControl bar, even on its widest setting, might make it harder to hit (though I haven't tried VolumeControl specifically on our Kindle, since I haven't rooted our Kindle due to DMCA concerns). VolumeSwipe provides a much wider bar. I think that's probably nicer if, say, you are watching a movie at the gym.
Sounds nice. You say "a number of apps (including...)". Could we have a complete list of the apps you include? BTW, you mention that your slider is narrower than Vol Control. Vol control's slide width is adjustable in the settings

I think I actually listed all of them, except for VPlayer. I am happy to add more.

Yeah, but it still doesn't go very wide.

Awesome. Reminds me of Spinal Tap: These go to eleven...
Awesome app, thanks. Could you add an option to shut off the notification? Not a huge deal, but now I keep checking my notification bar thinking i got an email or text.
Also, could you add the YouTube app to the list of apps this works in if it isn't already? Thanks!
Damn you Swype!
thanks.......just what I was looking for........
Bumped ...the app has been updated ...

I don't know what you mean by auto hide. Right now, when you let go of the swipe area, it disappears. Or at least it's supposed to.
Not disappearing on mine for some reason but thats what I meant by auto hide. If you made a invisible option that would be a good solution /feature to solve my issue and anyone else who may come across it. It's a great app to have on the KF though especially for use with youtube (every vid is recorded @ diff vol levels) ... I was having to exit youtube everytime to adjust the vol (annoying) but now I can just swipe! Thanks

Thanks for the kind words. Unfortunately, 1.01 was buggy.
I think I fixed some bugs in 1.02.
I recommend uninstalling 1.01, then rebooting, then installing 1.02.
Unfortunately, due to a bug in Android's package manager (which I reported to Google), it is necessary to turn off VolumeBoost before installing a new a version. I have not been able to find an easy way around this.
NOTE: USE BOOST ONLY AT YOUR OWN RISK. IT COULD DAMAGE SPEAKERS (especially if you turn off the non-uniform boost option in the settings).
It's officially in the Appstore.
