App to add wifi option to powerbutton menu? - Android Apps and Games

Is there an app that will add turn wifi on/off option to the menu, with power down, airplane mode and silent mode, that shows up when you press the powerbutton?

It sounds like you need to be rooted. Then you can add almost anything to anything. OR search a power wiget on the market.

i dont think apps will be able to edit this dialog. you'll need to find a custom rom which implemented this feature (or ask a cook to do so..)

:'( that sucks should be an apparently to change them to whatever you want :-D

With something like Notification Toggle you could add it to your expanded notification bar if you don't want a widget on your homes screen.

Large Icon to Turn Bluetooth ON and OFF

Hello
Is there any way to create or link, or install, whatever to use a Large Icon to Turn Bluetooth ON and OFF?
Thanks
Mussacredi
in "quickMenu" there is a bluetooth control. try that.
also, in some roms there is a "wireless" today plugin that is also supposed to control wireless connections.
Or you can also use the standard comm Manager.
I think if you search the dev/Hacking forum, you might be able to find something like that.
try AEButton plus (google it).
You can use it to assign a button press to toggle bluetooth (AND wifi).
I use it and it works perfect...I've set it up so a double press of the call button toggles wifi and a double press of the endcall button toggles bluetooth.
You can set it up any way you'd like. You can also create a shortcut that can be used with rlToday to assign a large icon on the screen to toggle it.
(I prefer the button method because it works whether the today screen is displayed or not).

Widget Locker and CM7/Gingerbread-Evo-Deck

I used to have Widget Locker before I started rooting and using custom ROMs on my EVO 4G, and it worked very well.
I have tried CM7 and Gingerbread-EVO-Deck(1.2), and both have issues with Widget Locker. This first is that not all widgets function properly. I can deal with that and make adjustments. The second, however, is that the "native" unlock screen stays active, so that I actually have to unlock and then unlock again to access the phone. Any ideas for fixes? Or is this just an incompatability with AOSP Gingerbread ROMs?

Ok, here's where it gets tricky, but not so much.
I found a way to make the WidgetLocker lockscreen completely replace the stock lockscreen and to make the volume keys work without waking the phone.
A little background info: The stock lockscreen is what prevents the volume buttons from turning on the screen (ie when you're highering/lowering volume of music with the screen off). Once you disable the stock lockscreen, using the volume keys will turn on the screen. Here's how to fix everything:
1. Disable the stock lockscreen in CyanogenMod/Advanced Settings -> Tablet Tweaks -> Disable lockscreen.
2. In WidgetLocker settings, go into, I believe the Behavior menu, and check the Allow Volume Control (or whatever it's called).
3. Download ButtonRemapper. Open it up and find Volume Up and Volume Down. It'll say "W" next to them. Change it to NONE. Hit apply, your phone will Hot Reboot. Even if you decide to stop using WidgetLocker and use the stock lockscreen instead, you shouldn't need to change these back since the stock lockscreen disables volume button waking anyway.
4. Enable Root Helper in WidgetLocker settings so that there isn't a delay when turning the screen on and off.
The only "issue" is that when you first turn on/reboot the phone, you'll hit the homescreen, since the homescreen is disabled and WidgetLocker starts up after the phone turns on. But that's it. After that, everything works perfectly.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Which widgets aren't behaving properly? There are some settings in WidgetLocker to disable the "Dragging Disabled" tooltip and to adjust widget space and disable widget interaction, etc. Just look through; it took me a while to notice.

Thanks a bunch, I'll try those sugggestions out.
Tried disabling the lock screen, seemed to work. The only trouble with this solution is that disabling the lock screen also disables the security (passcode/password).
Thanks again.

There's definitely a way to use a password, although I don't know if it requires disabling the lockscreen. It's in the WidgetLocker FAQ.

Cool, I found it.
With non-Sense, the WidgetLocker will hit the second unlock screen if you use a password/passcode. It will work with an unlock pattern, however.
In my case, this doesn't really help, as my work e-mail requires a password/passcode, and does not allow patterns.
Thanks, again.

[CM] Cannot disable Flashlight in Power Widget

Hi,
Is there anyway to disable "under the hood" power widgets buttons (the ones in the notification drawer) ?
In previous builds of CM9, I had the flashlight button selected in the power widget settings, even if the flashlight was not working. I was keeping it in case the flashlight gets fixed. Now, in more recent builds, the flashlight button is grayed out, so we cannot enable/disable it. However mine is checked and I would like to disable it, but I can't. Is it possible to disable the button in a configuration file somewhere ? Or is there a way to wipe power widget settings ? I checked with Titanium Backup to wipe data, but couldn't find data specific to the power widget and I would like to avoid wiping all my system data.
Thanks,
Neo.

Making Keyboard Backlight Stay on with Tasker App - Stock ROM Rooted

I'm a new Relay user and I can't use CM-10 (need wifi calling) so I'm trying to make the best out of the stock ROM Rooted. I don't like that the keyboard backlight goes out after a few seconds and doesn't seem to even have a sensor to keep it on in dark rooms so I re-downloaded the Tasker App from the Play Store which I haven't used in a while.
To get the keyboard to stay on when slid open I had to do the following:
1. Open Tasker.
2. Choose [Profiles] from the top menu.
3. Click the [plus sign] at the bottom to add a new profile and select [State] from the drop down.
4. Select [Hardware] from the State Category menu.
5. Select [Keyboard Out] from the list of choices here.
6. Tap on the Tasker Icon at the top of the screen and select [Backlight On] from the popup menu.
7. Make sure the toggle switch is set to on for your new profile.
8. Now go to you phone's Sytem Settings > Display > Touch Key Light Duration > and select Always Off (This will allow tasker to take control and have the keyboard backlight stay on when slid open but the Relay's back and menu keys will no longer light up. I can live with this to have my keyboard light on when typing.
9. If this didn't work, make sure Tasker is set to on in System Settings > Accessibility
BTW if someone knows a better way to accomplish this please share.
Edit: Sorry I forgot to mention that I'm using Nova Launcher. I think with the Touchwiz Launcher, apps that use accessibility cause Talkback to speak even if you have it turned off. I could be wrong about that but I had problems with the Light Flow app and accessibility before.
Nice
Good tip. the lights going out bugged me too.
please help. cant find menu with backlight on
Can't find menu with backlight on. Please help.
hey there,
i just figured out how to do this with a non-rooted phone on ics without tasker.
go to settings, display and touch key light duration. increase it to 6 seconds and that will give you enough time to type..
Weird.
I'm on CM10.2 (131117) and since I set the backlight time (in CM10.2 1309xx, I think) to 5 seconds it will always stay on if I open the hardware keyboard.
Maybe I should write me something with tasker to change this in the opposite direction :laugh:

Nav-bar button to hide the nav-bar

Hey Guys,
I want to find a way to show an extra button on my nav-bar to hide my nav-bar. I am watching for a solution for like 2 month and still didn't find a way to do it.
I tried 'Custom Navigation Bar' where I can activate an immersive mode but the nav-bar is auto hiding after some seconds and I don't want that. You can add extra buttons to the nav-bar in this App but I don't know any Keycode which hides the nav-bar. Is there even a Keycode who does this?!?
I can't believe that I can't find a solution to this problem I found apps who can hide the nav-bar and I found apps who can add extra buttons to the nav-bar. all of this without root. But how to combine this? Anyone?
Ty for your time
Greetings Mr 305
using custom nav bar:
1.
Create a new profile (called mine "immersive") check change immersive settings, hide which ever you want
add button (i used left), type = toggle profile, select immersive profile, i set icon to chevron up.
2.
go back to main screen, click nav bar, change immersive mode yes, but keep nav and status bar unchecked.
add same button, type = toggle profile, select immersive profile, I set the icon to chevron up.
This will give you a button that toggles between immersive and non immersive profiles, you can obviously make other changes to the main screen and profile seperately
Ty sir!!! Works like a charm
Perfekt<3
