How to disable gps - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I feel like such a noob question but how do you disable GPS in this tablet? Ive already checked off all options in locations but the notification 'area still shows searching for gps. I'm definitely not new to android but I can't figure this out

If you scroll through the toggles in the notification bar, the GPS toggle is at the far right. Either the right most toggle or the one next to it.
If your GPS is still showing that message after turning GPS off, try restarting the tablet.

Thank you for the advice. I had no idea that there were more options off the screen for toggles. I found it after swiping right and revealing the gps icon. Thanks again!

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???
Isn't there already an app that can place a control bar in the notication area?

Your sig is obnoxiously large. Why don't you resize it?
I think what you're looking for is bar control

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)

[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.

Try a app called Notifications Toggle! It's a pretty Handy app!

Unidentified icon

Hi guys,
A silly question maybe but do you haopen to know what the below icon is?
Sent from my GT-N8000 using XDA Premium HD app
What icon below?
Interesting. Apparently the screenshot was not uploaded. I found out in the meanwhile. It was a dtrikethrough i , which means no notifications.
Sent from my GT-N8000 using XDA Premium HD app
You can turn it off by re-enabling notifications on the same bar as wifi.
I don't use wifi but today what sounds like the same icon has appeared beside the clock in the notification area and I can't seem to turn it off from anywhere. I've just turned on wifi and tried that trick a few times but nothing doing. It's driving me mad not knowing what it is.
Edit - just noticed there's a notifications toggle in the notifications which I now realise is what you meant and that has fixed it, woohoo! I was turning on and off notifications in Settings, wifi, doh!

[Q] Swicthing between the Status bars

OK when you pull down your status bar, you can sometimes (on some roms) swipe to the right or left on a blank spot and it will switch over to the Quick Tiles pulldown.
I have tried looking everywhere that lets me turn it on, or a Xposed module, etc.
I have no idea what it is really called. Anyone know/can help?
Roms that have it.

Roms that don't
Stock Roms, etc.
Thanks again for any info as this is bugging me.

But that only lets you from pulldown. I'm talking about when it is already pulled down. You swipe (like you would to clear a notification) on a empty spot and it takes you to quick tiles, and vise versa.

Oh right. It doesn't have a name. I don't know anyway to get this without flashing a rom to get it
Damn... that's the last thing that's driving by ocd crazy... My favorite rom doesn't have that and I have no idea what it's called or how to add it.

On the stock ROM, when you pull down the status bar, the icon on the right side top allows you to toggle between notifications screen and the quick tiles. Are you looking for that, but with a swipe instead? (if so, why not just click that icon instead? Saves you a swipe)
The swipe is good an easy. I missed it. The icon is just a bit too far away. Glad I have it in slim

My right thumb can barely move due to a injury. So swiping helps quite a lot.
ok, make sense

Status bar toggles moved?

Hi, I recently noticed the the toggles on the status bar have moved. My toggle for air plane mode and mobile data have moved places and I have no idea why???
Is this normal, please see attachment (mobile data toggle in the middle is original placement)
Thanks

Is this CyanogenMod? Then you can rearrange your toggles in settings menu.
OP just tried "invert colors" function from accessibility menu and that appeared in pull down menu

You don't have to worry about anything. That's normal, because statusbar toggles on Lollipop somehow work on this way. With time (if you wan't touch it) invert toggle will disappear.
You added a toggle and that shifted all the others one place to the right. Nothing strange here.
