[Q] I want the awesomeness of MIUI w/o the bulkiness - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

So I was thinking Ill just go back to using cyanogenmod 4.1. My problem is, though, I adore that nifty "hold home key down on lock screen for 3 seconds" for the torch on MIUI. My question to you is, can I have the lightness of cyanogenmod stock jb with the awesomeness of the torch? If so, where can I get it? Thanks in advance.

First off its miui
And why not just add a status bar toggle for torch? You can pull down the status bar while on the lock screen and enable the torch
I'm also a fan of the feature but I haven't seen it in another aosp ROM

I thought it would be great to be able to do the torch thing like it does. It's neat. And I wouldn't know how to make a toggle for torch anyway.

You'd just enable it in notification bar. Simple

What's the best app to use the LED as a torch?

Ive done a bit of searching through the market but can only find apps that use the screen as a torch.
Any recommendations? Thanks

or you can go for Tesla LED
i prefer everything in 1 app, less wasted space, faster phone
TeslaLED. Perfect. Thanks!

Using the LED, dosen't it increase the chance of the Led getting spoiled?
Anyone run across any new LED apps since this was posted? I cannot overstate the usefulness of a good LED torch app.
Torch from CM7 works fine.

I use TeslaLED, works great. I noticed that it lags turning on from the homescreen widget compared to G2, but it's not the end of the world.

did you expect to not use it in the case of it breaking? Why have it at all then?

I use Nexus One LED flashlight. It's about 80k, Tesla is closer to 350k. I don't like bloated apps...
+1 for Allgamer's recommendation of Widgetsoid 2.x. That app replaced like 3 other dedicated apps for me (LED torch, battery meter, power control).
Anyone else?
TeslaLED or Torch (Comes with CM7)
I've switched to using widgetsoid. I have one widget on the homescreen with battery, ram, and torch. Another on different homescreen with a few toggles.

I use LED Light. It has a widget that you can put on yyour home screen. That is if you want an app that does one thing and one thing well.

Widgetsoid... u can use it for other purpose as well...

I use the SwitchPro widgets. One switch Flashlight on/off. Very useful...

for me it replaced at least 9 different widgets
in total it shaved off 15 apps from my phone
I like using TeslaLED in combination with widget locker...allows you to use the flashlight from the lockscreen.
I use nexus tourch love the high brightness

Any one of these have variable brightness settings? When I had my HD7 the ability to choose between 3 levels, low medium and high, was awesome sauce.

Love the fact that we have something for MIUI with out buying an app.
Made by the same people that make ripple lock. Both replacements have very good graphically, but they need to learn that root users need to ability to NOT to disable lockscreen, as this is a stupid way to bypass the stock lockscreen, as Tesla the Guy who made widget locker figured out, and uses root to bypass the stock lockscreen which is better.
Tesla has stated he's going to add sense 3.0 replica style lock, but don't know when he will do it

Not for me it works great with cm7.1 RC1 i love this i used miui for a couple of weeks and i loved this lockscreen but had to come back to cm7 because how much faster and stable it was (also i love that you can change the shortcuts!
The developer of this app annoys me. He always updates his free version before he updates the paid version, he did this with ripple lock as well.
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
I can't seem to disable the default lock so this one is only used as well as power button not waking. tried with a fresh wipe and flash install.these are effecting cm7 nightly 146 with Chad's 6/19 kernel with aggressive undervolt.
Did you disable lock screen in CM settings>tablet tweaks?
forgot about that.that worked once I disabled the poweramp lock widget which also enabled the system lock. that's all good but the power button doesn't do squat while it's locked
I haven't used the app, but it sounds like something that may need to be fixed with it, unless there's some setting for the lockscreen app that you need to change.
Multiple people are complaining about the power button problem both on xda and the market reviews. I emailed the developer about it but no response. The app is very similar to the developers on ripple lock. GREAT potential he just needs to work on it. I hope teslacoil releases a new WL with the sense 3.0 lockscreen soon, I like widgetlocker

For those missing Notification Toggles (Samsung Users)

Hey guys, for those of you who have solely used Samsung android devices (I had the Captivate, Infuse, and Skyrocket), you might be missing the notification toggles in the dropdown. I know there is a settings button on the notifications, but I kind of like having immediate access to some functions such as flashlight and auto-rotation, not to mention wifi, bluetooth, and sound.
Try this app out: Notification Toggle
Also, here is a thread on xda devoted to the app and also has other icons that you can customize if you don't like the ones included.
There is also a notification icon for the status bar that you can set as a battery icon if you hate the AT&T notification.
Thank you so much for this. This app works like a charm :-D

Yeah I thought this would be good to use until we get root and custom roms that might add the quick settings tab. I am, however, loving this phone so far. So much better than the Samsung phones I had.

Sweet I upgraded from a Cappy too. I miss flashing RIMs but for now I'm good with stock. So much nicer than Touch Whiz!
I'll have to check this app out.

[Q] Dual level Pie control Roms

Im in search of a ROM that has multi level pie controls. so far ive only seen it on Slim Bean Rom and altho I love the Pie control setup for it I didnt really enjoy the ROM that well. Can anyone point me in the right direction? BTW I know that i can download the app and have pie but its not as clean as id like it to be...unless someone can hook me up on how to make the pie button for the app to look like the original pie thatll be great!
Nevermind...other than Slim Bean there's LiquidSmooth Rom
I think LMT launcher has this feature as well so you can use any ROM you choose and still have pie.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA
Depending on what you want it for, there is 'Pie Control' in the app store that has multi-level (and short/long press actions as well) for a total of 20 shortcuts.
Well, im using Apex launcher now and i love it and would hate to move away from it. and ive tried the app from play store and its nice but i was looking for something more like the original pie controls where instead of the shortcuts being icons its more of a button thats more uniform with the rest just like the original where i can a screenshot button and keyboard switcher etc.
Beanstalk has all that too.

[Q] Can you change which settings are in the notification bar panel?

Hey everyone
So I used to have a Galaxy s3 and used Cyanogenmod and you could change which settings appeared in the quick settings panel in the notification bar, but I can't find that option anywhere on my Nexus 5, does anyone know if this is possible? Or is it just a feature of CM that isn't on the Nexus 5?
Thanks!
Sadly this is not a feature that stock android supports gonna have to wait till the CM team come out with CM11 that or some Dev makes a ROM which includes it, personally this was one of my favourite features of CM
Oh okay, I thought might be the case. Thank you
