I know you can decompile systemUI and change the order, add, subtract toggles from the notification pull down. Does anyone know if you can add things like wifi direct? It'd be kinda of nice instead of shuffling through settings. Or even add in a flashlight toggle?
Wifi direct
It will be nice to have Wifi direct toggle. In TW JellyBean you can always long press the Wifi icon in the notification bar and it will get you inside the Wifi menu and then you can choose Wifi direct from there.
I wanna bump this. I had kinda forgotten about this, but being snowed in the last couple days, I've been playing around and would still like to know if we could add new options in the stock notifications toggles.

Would it be possible to get WIFI, GPS, BT, and maybe Network Toggles built into the pull down status bar? Like the galaxy S has.
you could try bar control or bar tender from the market, they allow you to add things like this to your status bar. They both take up room up top though, even if you can't see them.
Yeah I tried those but they took up to much space as they were vertically. I found one app in the market that basically put the power control bar in the status pull down but the app was really poorly written.
Would love to see if somebody could whip this up.
Thanks
so, i really, really miss sbsettings from the iphone days. It was amazing. Customizable toggles in the drop down menu. There was a toggle for everything: data, 3g, edge, push, wifi, location, brightness, etc etc etc.
As of now, we have the 4 basic toggles, but i never use bluetooth so it bothers me to have it there. We need to have the toggles scroll, like the dock does within LauncherPro and allow some customization of the toggles. And no, i don't want all these toggles spread around my homescreens. It is so convenient to have the toggles in the drop down, but we just need MORE!
What can be done? Is there a better way to do toggles that i am missing? I have beautiful widgets, but that just doesn't do it for me. Help me out!
There is an apparently you can get. I believe its called quick settings.

I'm running Viper XL 3.2.8 and I used to have power toggles in my pull down status bar (wifi, gps, flashlight, data, etc.). In the past few days, these have been replaced by quick launch icons that I find useless. I can still access these things if I go over to the quick settings, but I've been searching the settings for hours trying to get it back to how it was. What am I missing?
The first attachment is what it looks like now.
The second attachment is what it used to look like that I'm trying to return to.
Long press on the time and date area and it will change. Cycle through the different views until you get what you want.
Thank you! I knew it was something simple.
On some roms, notifications toggles dont work...is there any work around for this?
For example: The GPS toggle is always on preventing me to switch it off even from the settings menu
Okay, I know just enough to be dangerous. I just got my S5, but I have done some modding by replacing icons in the framework apk on the S3.
I have rooted the S5 with towel, so I can't flash mods and have stock TW ROM, but can make changes to an APK. I want to have more interesting icons for what they used to call the toggles, but basically the buttons you can use on the pull down, to turn on wifi, BT, set airplane mode and so on. I also want to change some of the icons in the status bar such as wifi signal strength, data up/down, BT and so on. I have looked around in twframework-res.apk and framework-res.apk and have found a couple (I think they are what I am looking for, but have not tried to change one yet, mostly the status icons) but most (the toggles) I cannot find at all.
Also I used to have a 1% incrementing battery icon. Can I even use that with the stock ROM?
Thanks for any help.

Statusbar icons and Toggles are In the systemui apk.
