Hello,
I write this post because I need some information for the personalization of my nexus5 (kitkat stock rom).
I would like to customize the toggles accessible from the notifications bar.
I need to have:
-A button that allows me to enable or disable the data network (currently enters clicking in the statistics and from there I have to click the button on / off)
-A button that allows me to make 2g/3g/4g switch (sometime if i need only use whatsapp i use edge for saving battery)
Have you any suggestions?
I know someone will chase the rabbit of the hat!
Thank you,
xSliv3r
HI
Please try
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.notificationToggle
I use Power Toggles:

It works very well and you can create toggles for your Notification area or as Widgets for you homescreen.
Hi,
thanks for your answers!
I've tried this app but there isn't possibility to add nothing in quick toggles area...
With this app, minewhile, i've added the toggles in notification area...
Have you ideas?
Thanks,

I have root but don't think this is available unless you flash a custom ROM, I'm just praying for AKOP to release something...

Has anyone with Root access tried GravityBox Xposed app yet? That should do the trick but I don't know if they updated to 4.4 support yet.
the xposed framework doesn't work on 4.4 yet, sadly. The developer just ordered an N5, and is already looking at the issues, so hopefully we'll have an update soon.
you've already got a data toggle, press and hold the centre button which has the signal icon on it. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth work exactly the same way, quick press into settings, long press toggle. Arse about face compared to others but it works.
I couldnt install either of those apps..kept getting error 920...awesome.
Had the phone in my hand for an hour and debating sending it back for a few reasons.i dont know why google wouldnt implement quick panel..its a basic must have for many

Im just waiting for the up to date Cyanogenmod build to be developed and released which will have fully customizable expanded quick setting tiles as standard. Its what I usually do with all my Nexus devices.

I have used the various 23 Toggle mods, battery mods etc that are available for the Note 2, S3 etc. Looking forward to these being available for the N5... but development takes time.
coming from CM on my old LG P990, this is the only thing that I'm missing ; customizable quick setting tiles.
I use old good Widgetsoid. Very customizable.

GravityBox
I'm using GravityBox and works very well. I recommend you to try it. It needs root acces.
I'm using Quicker Free

It is similar to the QuickPanel in appearance but allows you to add and remove the settings you like. Also allows you to make more than one screen of settings.
Actually just tried out Power Toggles and like it better than Quicker Free
Just use Cataclysm rom. It's pretty much stock rom with a few added options like this

I use extended settings haven't tried any of the other options really but it does what i need it to do and i think it meets your needs and its also free but there is a paid version with some extra features

Man! I didn`t know that, cool
Hi. I'm trying to buy a Nexus 5. I had it before and one thing that annoys me is the lack of quick toggles (for the Wifi, Bluetooth, GPS, Screen Rotate, etc.) like what one can do on a Samsung/Sony/HTC/LG/Motorola phone.
Now, i know installing launchers does not have a quick toggles feature in its UI but my question is:
1. IS there any launchers out there that has the option to have quick toggles in the phone's UI? (like when swiping your fingers from top down to the screen?
2. What alternative quick toggles app that i can install for my Nexus 5?
Please advice.
If you don't use the 2 finger swipe and longpress in the times, i can recommend:
Power toggles from Painless.
Can be used as widget in lockscreen, too. Switch e.g. wifi on/off without unlocking phone

Custom ROM or Xposed Framework.
Also questions belong in Q&A, not General.
Yea just use a custom rom or u just long press on the status bar toggles to turn on/off

Quick tiles are part of systemUI which is part of the rom. Nothing to do with launchers at all.
Custom ROMs or Xposed.

It sounds like you aren't aware of the two finger swipe (or right side pull down in some ROMs). I think Google's implementation is better than that of other manufacturers.
Hello,
I bought a smartphone (Coolpad Modena 2) with android 6.0 onboard for my grandma. I installed a launcher made espetially for seniors. It works really well. All buttons are big, all extra apps are blocked. But there are 2 things that bother me.
1. With a swipe down the screen you can open the notification dropdown menu. From there, you can easily access all phone settings. It makes it pretty easy to mess something up. It there a way to switch off the pulldown menu?
2. With a swipe up the screen the preinstalled ROM shows up a handy menu with settings like aeroplane mode, wifi on/of, priority mode. It looks really similar to the iOS control center. Again - it makes it way too easy for my grandmother to turn aeroplane mode on for example.
I was searching for a solution all day but didn't find anything. Maybe there is a custom ROM where you can disable this kind of menus? Maybe there is an other solution?
I will be glad for any help !

Greetings and welcome to assist. I'm not sure if you can disable it with a custom rom or root but you could try nova launcher. You can resize the icons with it and customize allmost all the gestures. It may be a bit more complicated to set up but when done should do the trick
Good Luck

Hello Guys -
How do we activate the System UI Tuner in Nougat?
Tried tap/hold Gear button on the notification panel and nothing works - though i did see "Shortcutter" on PLay Stored to activate it; however was wondering how to do it on our Nougat ZF3Ultra without 3rd party apps
Thank you
When and where did u get android 7 for ZF3 Ultra?? I am still stuck on 6.0 and have issue with the softkey botton when connecting with 4G..
Thanks
ok i searched many but cant find good widget/switcher/toggle for non root phone that can switch fast and easy between 2/3/4g network....any help?
anybody?
Back on the Galaxy S2, I used to switch lots of functions thanks to the app named "Power Toggles". I can't guarantee you that it will have a switch for 2G/3G/4G, but it might have one. Basically, it's a widget that you can customize by putting the switches that you want, in the order that you want. So you might want to have a look at it, just in case it does what you need ; )
Such Toogle Apps have been blocked by Google security for most settings since Android 4 or 5, i think.
