Power Control in notifications like in CM7?

Is this possible on the DX? For those who don't know what I'm talking about:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836721
There's a screenshot of something similar.
Basically, toggles in your shade instead of the carrier name.

Yeah I use widgetsoid. You can find it on the market for free.

Awesome man, that's perfect. Now I just have to figure out how to get rid of the carrier label altogether . Any ideas? BTW, how'd you change your font?

I use the liberty 1.5 rom, it has a bunch of options for fonts and lets you change the carrier name out to whatever you want. So far its been very stable for me and much quicker than stock.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

Yeah, I saw the font options, but I'm not sure what adding a font does.. for instance, what'd you do in the toolbox that sets the widget font?
And I'm not talking about changing the text, I'd like to find a way to remove that whole bar, 'cause it just takes up space. I think you can do it in stock.. it's called a "roaming banner" i think

Changing the font effects all the text, everything from Widgets to menus to even the text on most websites in the default browser. It even changed the font in my clock widget. As far as removing the carrier label on the notifications I'm not sure how to remove that waste of space. I never looked into it but now since you mentioned it it's bugging me too. Let me know if you do find a way to remove it.

You long press on the home screen and select add widget like you would when adding a widget to the home screen, select widgetsoid then select a switcher widget. Pick the options you want it to have then go to the advanced tab and select both notification and make invisable. Click apply and it should now show up in the notifications bar. If you want to edit it just open widgetsroid and it will be in the widget tab. Hope this helps.

You can remove it with a metamorph, if you edit the xml in /layout/status_bar_expanded.xml I'm trying to put one together to do this. Right now I've managed to remove the grey area, only thing missing is moving the "clear" button some place else.

What does rooting your phone have to do with it? AFAIK there's no other way to do it anyway

There are custom ROMs that have this feature. This is the only app I know that will actually do this.

i don't think there are custom roms that do it for DX though

Power Control Plus works as well, and is a bit easier to set up. You open the app from the app drawer and the 'add to notification bar ' is right there for you.

Have you been able to figure out a way to move or resize the clear button yet? I really wish I could move it to the bottom of the notification bar. Better yet, I wish there was an app/widget that automatically cleared all new notifications. Been looking for something like that for months without any luck...

That means you have the GPS/some kind of location service turned on.

Thanks! It didn't look like the active GPS icon, and I actually had GPS off, but other location services running. turned them off and the icon went away.
Thanks again!

This sign is in my status bar at all times and I don't have gps or any location services on

It's on my stock unrooted S3 all the time. It changes (the signal lines disappear) once you turn GPS off AND all other location services, but it remains.

Yeah..this is the e 911 location thingy..or can't be disabled on stock but I know I flashed synergyrom and it goes away..pretty annoying actually..I hated it up there all the time.

i would like to know aswell . i asked a samsung represntative that came to show off the gs3 and he said"it must be a verizon thing ,because that is the only carrier i see it on ".

The one without the little bars next to it is for e911, which is always turned on. The one with the bars is if any other location services are turned on.

If you're on a stock ROM, you can get rid of the icon, by replacing your systemui.apk with the one in this thread.
Alternatively, you could decompile the apk, delete the icon's png, recompile it and push it to your phone. That will let you keep any theming or other mods done to your systemui.apk. If you've never done any sort of theming or modification work before, it's a good one to start with, and to get your feet wet with apktool.

It means THEY know where you are...

Nonononono do NOT decompile and delete images. You need to extract it, delete the images, then zip it up. Or just use ninjamorph. But decompiling is for editing .xml files

Yeah this is the method I used. It also frees up the space for other icons if needed (it does not retain the spot for the icon).
But note that when an OTA update comes it will likely fail since you tweaked the SystemUI.apk & your start up screen will also now likely show the Custom with lock icon.

[GUIDE] How to easily re-map your search key to function as a multitasking key

For a lot of people, the search key is pretty useless. Why not re-map it and turn it into a multitasking button similar to what the galaxy nexus has? All you have to do is edit a couple files in your /system.
EDIT: You can actually just flash a zip, thanks twitchyeye for letting me know about it
Flash this modified zip in cwm or twrp that twitchyeye made to remap: http://www.mediafire.com/?jk3gbeuy8312bn8
What you will need:
-A SGS4G currently on an ICS rom
-ES File explorer (free from the market)
Download ES file explorer if you haven't already
Open the app, go to menu -> settings then turn on Root Explorer, Up to Root, and Mount File System
Go back
Touch the "up" button (you should be in the "/" directory)
Scroll down to the "system" folder
Scroll down to the "usr" folder
Go to the "keylayout" folder
Long-press cypress-touchkey.kl and press edit
Change SEARCH to APP_SWITCH (you must type it exactly like that)
It should look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Do the same thing to melfas_touchkey.kl
Reboot the phone
The serach key should now function as the multitasking button. If not, you might have to edit the few more .kl files in /system/usr/keylayout
Es file explorer automatically makes backups of system apps that you edit (make sure you have the option checked under root settings)If you ever want to go back to your old setup, you simply delete the .kl files you edited and rename the copys to remove the .bak at the end of the file name. Or can simply replace the APP_SWITCH with SEARCH again.
Note to Miui users:since miui uses a different recent apps menu, the search key will only bring up a gingerbread-style recent apps

This is even easier.

Ive never tried a multi-task remap. I just had to use that for a while on a old phone. They make two models of the phone only difference was home and back were swapped.
It is a very dated app so maybe you could improve it by recoding to allow multi-task mapping? I just figured its less likely of messing something up with it then modifying the key_map file.

So is there a different name for the newer style recents window?

Is the app switcher what pops up by long pressing the home button?

Ok so I just tried both these apps on the Nexus 5. Both are EXCELLENT (hard to decide which one to choose). However, I have to say "Settings Extended" is great because as nhatters said, you can "use Settings Extended to add toggles to the notification bar." so it does not take room on the homescreen and seems more like stock experience. I think everyone must try both to decide. Thanks again guys =) And they are both free!!!

You can do that with Power Toggles as well.
