[REQ] App to put Power control in status bar like MIUI rom

Firstly, each to there own, but I'm not a fan of the MIUI rom, I've tried a few builds but its just too much like an iphone layout for me.
However there was one part I really liked & that was the power control functions in the pull down status bar: Wi-Fi, 3G, Vibrate, Silent, Bluetooth etc. like you would get on a widget.
Having them on the status bar was a great idea.
I know certain roms like espresso have it on, but was wondering if anyone knew of an app that can do the same?
I have so far found apps in the market that can do calendar or Wi-Fi, but nothing that can do everything.
Any ideas?

Aah okay, that'll explain why I haven't seen them lol. Thanks

Thanks, but I'm getting tired of flashing new roms now, I'm back on stock at the moment, just thought someone may of known of an app, doesn't even have to be as fancy as MIUI just put an option in the notification bar.
Maybe I'll look at the 4G rom when it's a full stable release...

Im thinking there could be a way to do that using Tasker (since you can do most things with it). Something to set a notification that if you click it can define an event or something of the sort. If you have zero programming knowledge whatsoever then Tasker might be a little difficult for you though.

[Q] Home screen(s) panel dot(s)

Hi all,
I tried searching the forums and google on this but couldn't find an answer.
I've included a picture just to give you guys a visual. (Guess I can't show you since I'm a noob)
It's the dot(s) that is an indicator when you have 1 or more home screens.
My question is - is there a way to remove the dot(s)/indicator? By way of an app or custom ROM?
Thanks in advance!

If I understand what you are saying a custom launcher like apex or nova should take care of it. They will have a bar, but you can hide it.

Is it possible to hide the dots/panel indicator on a stock ROM?

Those will work on the stock rom, but not the stock launcher. I guess I should mention you may not be able to use touchwiz widgets with them. But to keep your launcher and rom but remove those would involve code manipulation. I'm not saying no one has done it, but I haven't stumbled upon that type of tweak.

What do you mean you cant find the status bar, your picture shows just that, you have it, and judging by the red arrow pointed at the brightnes I think you mean that jou cant find the brightnes slider, and that is rom dependent

Pls explain more about the problem

this is not the pic of my phone
my phone didn't show the bar as u see in this pic

Is your phone on a custom rom or is it on a factory rom? Factory roms for Nexus S do not have those shortcuts on statusbar, it's rom dependent

app
u can try this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.painless.pc&hl=en
this can be used as widget as well as an notification drawer power toggles
i used this when i was on 4.1.2
hope this helps !

you mean the power toggles or power widget..
that actually does'nt show by default on JB v4.1.2 or higher custom roms, if you have a custom rom you can just add those toggles by going to settings, it says notification drawer and you can just enable the power widget, in my ROM it is located in settings/system/notification drawer/power widget(it is disabled so I dont have that too). it depends on a ROM, and it is more easy to provide you the best resolution if you ask an accurate and detailed question..
hope that this will still help you..

yes ...
please tell me fast what can i do??

thanks Bro
Thanks a lot

thanks to all guys
my problem is solved now
thanks again

A couple things I miss from my gs4

Is there a way to add these options?
Brightness slider on the pulldown menu.
Sgs4 style phone dialer. Mostly it's the contacts that drive me nuts. I liked my grid of favorites.
Numbers at the top of my keyboard.
Fwiw, I'm rooted and could copy apks from my old phone with titanium if that will do it.
Thanks in advance,

As for the keyboard - try getting SwiftKey, it's awesome anyway, and you can add a permanent number row.

Custom roms like Carbon, BeanStalk, Temasek etc usually have that option. I think Slim has it too. You may need to compile your own at this point but they should be out soon.

Swift key is working well. I was thinking today that I need an asop rom and that it would probably have what I want.

Notification/Status Bar in Android 6

Is there a way to disable the annoying "feature" of transparent status bar? I've been searching for days and am only finding Xposed modules recommended or status bar replacement apps but I just want to disable the transparency, nothing else. Is there a way to do in Android V6 (Marshmallow) on Samsung Touchwiz?

No
it s default on android 6.0 system UI so you have use a 3rd party tool or app to disable it.
like nova launcher > setting > looks & feel > disable transparent notification bar
there is no setting in Android System itself

Damn, so much for Android being the OS of "options". Another IOS, here we come?
Is there any other app you are aware of instead of a full-blown launcher? Something simpler?

Got it. Did that, thanks man. Is there a way to disable the "expansion" of notifications by default? After I rooted, all notifications are showing expanded. It used to take a two-finger swipe down to expand each but now they just all show up like that by default. And I'm not even able to collapse them. They start collapsing when I do two-finger swipe up but go back to their expanded mode when let go.

No.
technically when there is expanded option for a notification so user may need to do something! >> it s useful
to collapse it two-finger swipe up should work just make sure put two finger correctly!

The two finger swipe looks like it's gonna happen with the notification starting to collapse as expected but then expands back when the fingers are released. It will not stay collapsed. And they are ALL expanded by default, even a silly screenshot notification and other notifications that didn't used to be expanded before I rooted but are now.
