There are quite a few power control widgets available (eg. Switch pro). Unfortunately, I have not found one with a working 3g enable/disable toggle. Seems gingerbread has changed things making these kinds of widgets no longer work.
Widgetsoid has one. You can't make the switch directly from the toggle. It brings you to Android's menu but it's still usable.

I'm sure a lot of you already use this, but this widget is a must have IMO. It basically has toggles for almost every setting you might need (e.g. wifi, bluetooth, reboot, flashlight, etc.) and is highly customizable. The latest 1.8.1 update also has a toggle for 4G, and is confirmed working. Give it a shot, it's only a buck, and the dev is very responsive.

don't be sorry, dazzle is nice but doesn't have a 4G toggle (yet )
I don't get it... When I long-press the screen, I am able to add widget toggles. I already have one for 4g, Wi-fi, bluetooth, gps and LED Light. Is my phone special?
Those are the Sense Widgets. These will work for those of us with Sense disabled.

They don't work without sense, not to mention, those are each 1x1 icons. With SwitchPro you can fit 7 switches on a 4x1 area. I have it to switch my wifi, 3g, brightness, ringer, led flashlight, and sync.
SwitchPro had a data button too that works with the EVO.
So you have 4g and Data toggles. This program is crucial for any EVO non-sense launcher.
are there any free widgets that toggle 4g. it's really the only thing I'm missing. sticking these power widgets on quickdesk is awesome and i just want to round out my widget pack without paying $1 for a widget that i technically already have but can't use.

I have this on my HTC Legend, but it acts a little weird. The data connection tab only works if the data connection was disabled through SwitchPro.
e.g. I'd have to enable my data connection in the settings and disable it with SwitchPro to be able to enable/disable it with SwitchPro.
Another thing i don't like is that data is automatically enabled when WiFI is disabled. Is there any way around this?
Hi.
Samsung Galaxy S has a quick adjustment (Power settings, wifi, BT, 3G .....) in the role of notification. It is easy to use anytime.
Can be found somewhere this application and install it in X10?
Please, do not write me about Launcher. I do not want any launcher. I like system by SE.
It is there in 2.1 by default. To use now search for switch pro gadget.
You can try quick settings from widgets from standby screen.

Thanks,
I use SwitchPro wiget now.
I will wait for Android 2.1 two months.
Been using Quick Settings for a while. I absolutely love it.
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:

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

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.

I would like to see them in metro style. Simple white icons without the 3d effect.

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.

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?

Well I don't know if MS reads this forum or if anyone at xda is even working on this.
That's actually a great idea. To swipe the volume bar to get comm manager toggles. Clean and simple

I've made this small app some months ago because I wanted a fast flashlight access app which will start from its shortcut. This way I can turn flashlight on/off straight from homescreen and also can change the icon(if launcher supports it).

Seems that link doesn't work. I just update it.
I'm on a low end PAYG tariff so manually turn data on / off over 3g. The Moto G doesn't seem to have a quick way of doing this and quick settings don't appear to be customisable... ? Unless anyone knows different ?
Press the signal icon in quick settings.

stock android is like that on every phone
you must use power toggles from play store, or exposed framework and some modules

This takes you to the menu to then toggle it..... I've come from a HTC where you can just toggle via the icon in quick settings since my first android back in the day HTC Legend. I guess thats part of Sense and I'll need to use a 3rd party app. It just feels like such a basic feature though coming from a non-stock android experience.
Swipe with two fingers from the top then tap the network button(middle one), then tap "mobile data"
Thanks all
You could also use widgetsoid from the playstore.
One tap customisable toggles in notification area.
you could also use gravitybox together with xposed to override system default toggle behavior for some toggles (wifi, bt, data, etc)
