[SOLVED] Add "Auto-Rotate" to Quick Setting ? - HTC Desire S

Hi guys,
Is there any way to add "Auto-Rotate" to Quick Setting. I have searched the forum and even google it but didn't find any useful answer.
PS: My DS is running on Rooted Stock Rom (odex).
Thank You!

I'm not sure but I think there is a widget available for it?

yes, there is a Auto-Rotate widget that you can download from HTC Sense
then you can place on your home screen

No, i dont want any widgets on homescreen, what i want is to extend my Quick Settings drop down menu and add a toggle to auto on and off Rotation.

There is this "Switch Go Widget" I am using, try to search it on the market. I am using Go Launcher though, am not sure if you can install that one without Go Launcher.

Might have to be a case of changing your Rom then

Again widgets, i dont want any widget please. Noobs please don't try to answer this question as i know you all will tell me to use some or the other widgets. No hard feelings.
This question is for developers, who know how to tweak and mod the settings.
Moreover i found a thread but i guess that works for Deodex Roms not for the Odex ones. Here is the link : [SMALI GUIDE] How to add extended Quicksettings

Surely this is more a dev ? and should be in a dev forum then to get more specific help?

in this case you should post your topic in the "Desire S Android Development" section, not here.

Read the Posting Rules before suggesting others where they should post.

What is it that you are trying to achieve with having that on the quick setting? If it's because you only want the screen rotate while in a certain app, then I'd recommend an app called Smart Rotator. It's on the market, and you can preconfigure which apps to rotate and at what angle. So whenever you launch that app, it will rotate as you configured, and when you close it, it returns to normal.

Not Available Try custom roms for this

You need to edit the sense frameworks

TouchWiz4 for Gingerbread Tab (Deodexed only) Updated 05/13

First off thanks to everyone from the various SGS forums for this, especially to fear2142.
This is the Touchwiz4 Launcher from the SGS2 ported to work with Galaxy Tabs running a DeOdexed Gingerbread based build (or latest Overcome based on GB).
Changes I made for the Tab:
Fixed XML's to support larger screen
Adjust size for workspace/edit screens
Set Launcher workspace to 6 rows/ 6 columns (fits good)
Set appdrawer to 6x6 layout as well
Adjusted to allow 5 shortcuts on bottom bar
How to install?
This is a CWM3 package, save to sd card, use recovery to install (choose zip from sdcard etc)
You must clear your dalvik cache after install.
Reboot, clear the application data for twlauncher to ensure it displays properly.
This is currenty setup for 240 dpi, I'm working on a version for 182dpi as I type.
*UPDATE*
Alright, I've attached the 182 version. Unfortunatly I just cannot get it to accept a grid any larger than 8x8.. though I suppose that's still 64 spaces right?
Known Issues
Screen rotation is not currently working
Nice one mate!
Nice work! The screen rotation does not work for me.
Nice! Can't wait for 182 version

Awesome, just what I was waiting for
Much appreciated!
[EDIT] Could you create a zip for restoring back though incase we have issues/bugs etc?

Yeah good call, I neglected to mention that screen rotation is

To change the apps on the dockbar, open the application menu and do "menu key" and "edit".
know where I can get those (digital clock weather clock etc)?

You're going to need to add screenshots I think, cause I have no idea what you mean. None of my apps are covered by the dockbar shortcuts.
Are you running at 240 or 182 dpi like the OP says?

Hey can you share a link to the files for the SG2 clock and weather apps?
it's on the i9000 themes and apps forum. Quick search will take you there.

I thought they were somehow modded to work on the Tab

What is the i9000? Is it the Nexus S?
Im not good with phone codes.
Edit- Ignore my stupidity, i found it I knew it was a Samsung but couldnt remember which one haha.

@eyahl... maybe he's asking to change the background for the app drawer, and not the wallpaper...? If you look at the attached pic carefully, you'll realize its not the homescreen, but the app drawer, which has probably been modified in whatever garish looking ROM that is...
Although the other possibility is that the app drawer is completely transparent, in which case your suggestion is perfect . But i doubt that, because you can't see any other homescreen elements through the background, which would have been visible if the app drawer had been transparent (clock, other widgets, etc), so i think my hunch above is correct. (Also, I can't believe that the OP managed to flash an entire custom ROM without having the slightest idea regarding changing the wallpaper...wouldn't that be something!! )

Well, I've seen a lot things here I couldn't believe..
But I think you are right.
Anyways, changing the app drawers background is not that easy if it's not featured by the ROM.

what the hell is that ROM you're using??

You could use another launcher. Also try alt app draw (search the forum)
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
yeah you should stick with well known roms where you can get support, but there is a problem that needs to be solved so try pressing menu from within the app drawer to see if anything pops up , or it could be somewhere in the settings, it has to exist somewhere, if not consider another launcher

unlock lockscreen

Hi guys.
Does anyone know how to create a better lockscreen system, apart the default one inside new ICS roms for note?
I mean: there is maybe an app or a mod to have, for example, some functionalities similar to jkay's mod for gingerbread? I miss that much!
Maybe changing launcher?
Thanks in advance
play market has numerous lockscreens..
options is endless..
thx for reply

You have Minimalistic text, you can do a lot of things
thanks to all.
I am trying widget locker and I find it quite useful even if not properly easy to configure...
Use either goa ROM or alliance ROM...both of them comes with in built lock screens which can be modifiable using inbuilt applications...goa ROM supports ten different lock screens

I was wondering if it would be possible to add the whole dock bar (app drawer button and pinned apps etc..) vertically to either the left or right side of the desktop... Rather than having it stay at the bottom
As an option of course....
Also, ram consumption might need to be further optimized
Keep up the great work tho... Really do like this launcher :thumbup:

No worries mate... It was only a suggestion
Maybe you could implement some different app drawer configurations.... Such as custom grid sizes and possibly a list style app drawer as well...
Would like to see how this develops..
