Is it possible to get the toggle settings widget out of cyanogen's build and use it on my unrooted mytouch?
My ultimate goal is a 1 click gps toggle which i havent found. There is one in the market that is very cheap but the icon sucks and id rather have one that matches my other toggle widgets...What are the options? thanks

Hello,
I was just wondering if there is a way to change the default 3 icons wide quick launch icons using the TMOUS stock rom? I've seen custom roms with 4 and I'm thinking this would suit me better but I dont really want to flash a custom rom until I find out more of what I want.
TIA.

One of the greatest projects to ever come out of XDA is "CoOkie's Home Tab Editor" (aka "CHT")...it will allow you to do all sorts of customization to the home tab on your stock ROM (and on many custom ones as well). It's a powerful tool, but dirt-simple to use. There's also an add-on known as "CoOkie's Home Tab Editor" which gives it even more functionality and flexibility. It's going to be the easiest way to make the kinds of changes you're wanting...links to the threads for both of those are below, and the screenshot shows the customizing I've done to my stock ROM, 90% of which was achieved with CHT and the editor...
CoOkie's Home Tab
CoOkie's Home Tab Editor
In the screenshot below, CHT/CHTE are responsible for the following:
-The location and layout of the quick link icons (you can have even more on the screen than that, if you want)
-The clock/weather size, style, and position
-The notification bar just below the clock...size and location as well
-The custom device (carrier) name just above the clock
And that's really just the tip of the iceberg with what you can do with it
Great advice. Works great. Many thanks.
After using this for a couple of days and getting all the apps where I want them, it would be amazing if we could do the same thing to our contacts instead of being limited to 15.

I have installed CHT and CHTEditor 1.7.11 and love the functionality that it adds, but one thing that I have lost is the ability to change the apps in the Home Tab itself. Does anyone else have this problem?

if you mean you can no longer apply quicklinks, you have probably ticked 'hide empty quicklinks'.
menu - cookies home tab editor - quicklink settings - hide empty quicklinks to off.
Hello,
I tried to search but couldn't find any answer.
Is it possible to disable sense's lockscreen (and keep sense launcher...) and enable Android's default lockscreen (Eclair) without any additional app?
Thanks
Hi
Just remove lockscreen.apk in system/app
Hi,
Thanks for your answer. I think your talking about htclockscreen.apk, as I don't have any file named lockscreen.apk, but I'm not able to delete it without rooting the phone
Is there really no way to have android STOCK lock screen
Hi
You're right it's htclockscreen.apk. Sorry for my mistake.
Then i don't know if it's possible without root?
+1....been wanting this for awhile now but still havent found anything

You'll need to root or, if you have a higher powered device, install lockbot from the market. It replaces your lockscreen and it has eclair, eclair-2.0.1+, iPhone, and Sense lockscreens. The Pro version has a few more.
Actually this is not enough, i'v removed this .apk but when call is received the lockscreen is still sense - you must slide down
tried on HTC Desire Pays rom 2.1 based
We need a solution here...
All lockscreen apps don't work as they should, as the lock is disabled (htc legend) when the home or menu key is pressed.
The problem of default lock screen is that because of the slide down (instead of lateral slide), the lock screen is often disabled when the phone is in my jeans pockets and then it does unwanted calls...
Hi
you can lock the screen with the unlock pattern under security settings.

Yes that what I'm actually doing, but still... it's annoying to put the pattern at each unlock
I sent a msg to htc costumer service to see if they have a solution.
Hi.
Anyone has found a solution yet?
I tried LockBot Pro, but it's buggy and slow as hell.
Is there any lockscreen for 1.6 that would also have the support of Sense music widget?
Hi, found this topic when searching for "Caller ID lock screen"... and see that it seems to get no solution.
WIth HTC Desire HD, the problem remains: the caller ID lock screen can't be changed for a horizontal one. It will be usefull to avoid that my pocket automatically answered a call when I pull the phone out before seeing who is calling...
I still dig for this kind of "S2U2 Caller ID" (horizontal slide to unlock instead of default Sense vertical which is too sensitive when phone is in my pocket).
If someone gets ideas?...
Thanks
Why do you need a lockscreen at all? Can't you just turn the screen on/off?
Yes you can there is a thread on this, search for vanilla lockscreen on the desire topics.
Xda app

I just flashed the alpha rom, didn't see radio icons in the notification bar, is the only way to enable wifi through settings?
Or toggle widgets.
SCH-I500 - DL09/Deodexed/StupidFast 1150lv/darkstar
toggle widgets
Is that contained in launcherpro or is that a downloaded app?
Thanks for your time, Aaron
Its a widget called "power control." Its already on your phone. If you'd like some additional functionality, check out Widgetsoid on the market.

Hello
I have just installed a really clean, neat and simple app called: Wi-fi Status Bar Switch
This is a really simple toggle switch that lives in the status bar.
I am looking for two other simple toggles that can be put in the status bar in a similar way
1. toggle silent mode on/off
2. toggle mobile networks on/off
I know that there are widgets already build in that can do this, but are there any that can work from the status bar in the same way as the wi-fi switch mentioned above. - or is there a way of adding widgets to the status bar?
I have tried the app called Quick Settings - but this opens another window where you then have a series of switches - unfortunately as I have gingerbread the mobile switch does not work so I am looking for other options.
Many thanks. eon
Notification Toggle 1.3
I use that works fine.

I flashed the "Quick Settings" mod to get the same notification bar as Sense 2.1...
Look around the development forum...
I'm also looking for something like this. Thanks, will check out the quick settings mod.

I have made this thread for this purpose. You can try the statusbarmod_quicksettings only mod in this thread

Thanks for the replies.
I have looked at Notification Toggle - unfortunately that does not have the mobile switch to turn off the networks - or not that I could get it to work.
looked at the Quicksettings Mod - that would have been perfect but I have just installed the latest HTC gingerbread update so I cannot root my phone :-( in order to get it to work.
Why HTC did not have the gingerbread notification window implemented in the latest update is beyond me.
I have been using widget locker lockscreen replacement for a long time now. I just upgraded to the stable release of cyanogenmod 7 and wanted to test drive out the new lockscreen options. but when i disabled my alternative lockscreen the cm one wont activate. ive even uninstalled the replacement, but i still get nothing. I cant find anywhere in the settings that would turn on the lockscreen. any help?

So.... it might be here... it used to be: Settings > CM Settings > Tablet tweaks > Disable (or enable) lockscreen.
