So, anyone got a working one for data and GPS? I have Power Control Plus but it's a no go.

Doesn't the default Power Bar widget have toggles for data and GPS?
Barring that, check out Widgetsoid, it has an abundance of toggles you can add.

SwitchPro Widget.

Has the bluetooth button and GPS button been fixed for switchpro?

It does have GPS (the data one is only for wifi) and I'm using it but since I bought power control plus I'd like to keep using its features. To be honest, the only one I really miss is the data(3g) toggle.

Can you disable lock screen on Cyanogen 6 on EVO?

I've looked everywhere on the internet, and I can't find any solution to disabling the lock screen on Cyanogen 6 on my EVO; is it even possible, or, is there any software that will either disable it, or let me use something besides the power button to unlock it?
thanks so much!
widget locker doesnt exactly disable the stock cm6 lockscreen but it does allow a lot of customization....including using the volume rocker to wake the phone.......
thanks; it looks like it might be the closest I will get to an actual "no lock"
its a pain getting to the power button with the case I am using
Search for "no lock" in the market. Disables the lock screen.

doesnt work properly for me on Cyanogen 6.0..
SwitchPro Widget is an excellent 'power strip' widget in the market. With it you can have a disable/enable lockscreen widget on your power strip. Well worth the .99 centers!

Thanks for the tip. SwitchPro is the best power strip widget... it's extremely customizable.
thanks guys, switch pro did the trick!
Although it seems like you've already solved your problem, the customizable power widget in CM6 final allows you to do this. When you add the power widget it takes you to a configuration page and one of the options is to disable the lock screen. It's off by default so you will need to check the box to add that feature to the power widget.

well, I configured one of the buttons to be "lock screen", or "no lock", i forgot the term for it..
then, when you enable it, it shuts off the lock screen..
problem is, that widget causes alot of FC's in Cyanogen..frankly, ALOT of widget cause alot of FC's in Cyanogen 6..not too happy with it so far..
I have switchpro and CM6.0 (final version...not a nightly) and i have never had it FC. Try reinstalling it maybe?

Samsung Epic taskbar Radio on/off buttons port to EVO??

I've been searching everywhere and see ports or attempts at the Epic launcher/touchwiz, etc. being ported. I would rather stick with Sense.
However the 4 radio on/off buttons hidden away with the task bar seems perfect and would love to see it ported to the EVO.
Is anybody working on this or have any ideas/suggestions?
Agreed! This would be so amazing… I think the best bet would be for someone to add it to CM6, as it seems more like a core OS feature than an addon.
probably wont happen, I asked about this a few months back and many devs answered with why not. for it to happen we would need to port the framework from the galaxy s phones. it can happen, but it would take a lot of work. i would love this feature too though.
Would love this also....BOUNTY anyone???

Your sig is obnoxiously large. Why don't you resize it?
I think what you're looking for is bar control
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Bar Control is ok. It let's you put app short cuts in control bar. What the Epic task bar does is keep the Radio on/off buttons hidden till you pull down. Something we need but hidden away, yet quickly and easily accessible!
It like receiving a notification in your pull down task bar, but it's permanent!
The market app "Notification Status" comes closest to doing the same thing. It cost .99yuan
I would to also love this function on my EVO. My wife has the Epic 4g & I love the status bar buttons. Tried some other apps, can't find anything that works as simple as the Epic4g buttons.
CyanogenMod Nightly (after build 116) has this built in. You can select what you want to have in the bar, just like for the Power Control widget (WiFi, Bluetooth, Hotspot, GPS, Sound, Brightness, Auto-Sync, Screen shut-off timer, Auto-rotate, 2G/3G (doesn't work on CDMA phones), data on/off, lockscreen on/off, airplane mode, etc.)

I was looking for the same thing, best I could find was using "quick desk beta" (double tap home to bring up a screen over your current app and add whatever widgets you need to it) I have most of the curvefish widgets on it (brightness, gps, airplane, WiFi, auto rotate, etc pretty much everything but a 4g toggle)

Why are there no silent, gps, wifi, etc buttons in notification bar?

Hey.
Why are there no silent, gps, wifi, etc buttons in notification bar?
I believe because its pure stock UI
anyway to put them there? like app or something?
Just wait a bit for Cyanogen and crew to get CM 7 working.
yes you can lookup power control widget in market
use the power control widget that comes stock
Widgetsoid 2.x
You can also use Widgetsoid 2.x from the market to have it appear in the notifications drop down. Make sure you set it to open popup though. Otherwise, it won't do anything.

1+ Notification Toggle
Works like a champ. Doesn't really work as well as CM7 but fits the bill.

[Q] Searched, tested, tried. Toggles in notification bar?

Ok. Looked and tried all kinds of things. I have the Droid bionic. its a great phone. for the most part, i love it. But is there any way to put some toggle switches in my notification bar? toggle notifications takes up too much space, and the all in one requires a pop up. Same for widgetsoid. had the incredible with cm7. If i could have something like power control widget right in the task bar that would be perfect. Or miui's toggle setup. is there anything i've missed?
thanks for your time.

I think it's a known gingerbread issue, no word on the Widgetsoid dev as of late... correct me if I'm wrong. I'm using quickdesk, I googled this problem and found a thread from a droidx forum that recommended the app. Just double tap home to bring up a homescreen that goes over your home screen, or any application you are on and you can put any widget or app of your choosing, it's not as easy as the notification pull down, but it's relatively fast to toggle what you need and you're not taking up screen space. Hope this helps.
