Volumer slider in status/notification bar - T-Mobile LG G2x

Hi,
I am currently using HFS 1.4 but I am unable to find a setting that lets me put a volume slider in the notification bar. I would like to change the volume by pulling down the notification bar and slide it. It would be great if someone can suggest an app or a setting that I can change to get that. Thanks!

What about the volume buttons built into the phone?

I am using a case that covers the volume buttons so it's hard to press. It will be better if I can slide it.

Wow, thanks! That's exactly what I am looking for. Too many volume apps in market but this one displays volume bar that I can slide.

(Q) Status bar

There has to be a way to hide the status bar. obviously in numerous diff launchers, there is the option to swipe up or down to hide/bring back your noti bar. the noti bar lies within the systemUI.apk (or so i can tell via switching themes). anyone know how to edit the xml that allows for hiding the noti bar? it looks sick when i adb push the systemui.apk and it dissappears. Help!
the statusbar has the home, back, menu keys built in; its probably a bad idea to hide it
I was thinking about this also. It would be nice for apps to go true fullscreen and overlap the status bar. Maybe its an app issue but Remote RDP Lite makes it awkard as when I set the resolution to 1280x800 the bottom part actually gets covered by the status bar.
I suppose I can set it to be like 1280x750 or something...

I'd like the option to hide it whenever.

this would likely require use of a hardware button, since I dont think android CAN support gestures that work over all apps, and I cant think of any other input method you could use
edit: wouldnt be a bad use of the power button since the battery is good enough without it needing to sleep and the lockscreen is sort of pointless because its not in your pocket. Maybe a popup menu on the power button like on phones?
I'd like the ability to move the status bar to the top. This would make it easier to access when I'm holding it with my left hand and resting it on my legs. Right now, if I move my left hand to hit back or home, I then need to grab my xoom with my right hand to keep it steady.
One option would be to use the up down volume keys to move the status bar up or down. Volume could be handled more easily from the notification tray, it isn't as necessary as on a phone to have an alway accessible volume button.

can I change the lockscreen?

Good afternoon XDA.
I'm wondering if anyone has any guidance on how I can change the lockscreen on the G2x?
I am rooted with clockwork installed. I know if I install cm7 I'll have more options but currently that rom doesn't allow me to have data, calls only.
I have searched high and low for settings for the lockscreen and can't find any.
here's my problem. I was spoiled by cm6 and 7 on mytouch slide. With the G2x the buttons aren't real buttons so they don't actually pull the phone out of sleep. The only button that does that is the power button at the top. And then the only way to get past the lock screen is to gesture from left to right. I absolutely hate that whole gesture to unlock thing. I know it was nifty for nifties sake when it was first done a couple years ago and has become standard since then. But I hate it. it's uncomfortable and annoying. I just want to pull my phone out, push a button and start doing what I need to do. Sometimes it's just check a widget on my desktop. Now I have to fumble around swiping to do that.
On the mytouch with CM i could just double click the trackpad our menu button and it would unsleep then unlock easy as that.
Please if anyone knows a way to get past the lock screen with a button press or get rid of the lockscreen entirely so it unlocks as soon as it unsleeps please let me know.
dream scenario: push volume button and phone comes out of sleep, push volume button again to get past lockscreen.
widget locker can disable the lockscreen i believe
other than that i dont know of any apps that would let you hit the volume button to wake up the phone
CM7 would definitely be the easiest way to get it done, but unfortunately it looks like it wouldnt work out for you.
CM7 might get the option to wake with the volume keys...

The code is there, it just hasn't been merged yet...
I found this application and tried it out. It takes a second to unlock, but one press of the power button gets you in.

That is such great news. I'm definitely going to CM7 when data works on it because I can't imagine using my phones for a long time without cyanogen on them.
And thank you to the people who gave app suggestions, i'm going to check those out.
Where is whitehawx when you need him lol!

[REQ][MOD] Notification pulldown menu Ring/Silent/Vibrate button

Is it possible to change one of the notification pulldown control buttons to be Ring/Silent/Vibrate button?
Or perhaps just add that two the menu, so we'd have six buttons.
Just came to me: how about the data button to be CDMA/LTE toggle?
This would make my phone complete.

It's possible to add silent/vibrate toggle..the code is already there and sbrissen did it on gb comrom on the fascinate...beyond that it would be extremely difficult to add other goggles.as.they would have to be built.from the ground up
Then here's me wishing that the devs use that mod or make patches for it...

Yea one of the thing on the "cons" list of ICS was that you have to find the menu button every time... gnexus haters gonna hate

> when you enabled ics on screen buttons on cm 9.. there should be an option added at system under settings called navigation.. where you can hide/auto hide/always show, add edit soft keys.

Yeah, u can. u have to nable nav bar and set the height and width to 0px using apktool. im actually using it in that way.
well, heres my modded apk from my phone. (17th jul arjen's nightly)
it has navbar in portrait mode only. made it narrow, so it wont take up much space. on landscape it wont show. And u have the menu button on actionbar at all times.
i did this, so that i can hold my phone upside down, and still use it without bothering about the hardware buttons.
i dont have time to make a new apk or a flshable zip right now. push it to /system/framework
Could anyone do it for paranoid android?

You have this option in AOKP ICS.
There are lot more navigation options in Rom Control!!

Adding notification pull down button to navbar?

I noticed the OxygenOS doesn't have the option to add more nav bar buttons like the G7 had one to pull down the notifications area, it's very useful for phones this large. Any way to get this on the OP7 Pro?
Maybe you already know, but just in case you don't.
While using default OP launcher, you can swipe down on home screen to pull down notification panel.

Yeah, that works great on the home screen, unfortunately it doesn't work anywhere else like the button did. Having that button makes the phone much easier to one hand.

That's the curse of the in-display FPR. I thought about that when the 6T came out. No navigation remap as yet.
