Have you seen MIUI's status toggle icons?

Here's the ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=823494
I tried it out last night. I really love the status toggle icons! It basically has everything you need!
Miui's folders also look amazing too!
I'm just bringing this up because I was wondering if there was any way to get these elements into other ROMs?

If you are referring to the toggle widgets in the notification bar (wifi, 3G, brightness), both CM6 (thanks to Cyanogen) and many custom Sense ROMs (thanks to JsChiSurf) have these as well. Samsung also includes these toggles in their Touchwiz interface.

On-off widget for data/wifi?

Can anyone recommend a good on/off toggle widget for GPRS and wifi for the homepage?

I am using the Extended Controls widget and that works fine for me.

Yeah, the control bar works great, but if your not a fan, try the Widgets from curvefish.

I'm using SwitchPro Widget (Paid) and works perfectly! It was worth spending a few cents..

If you use CyanogenMod, the widget "PowerControl" is included. Or you can turn on the notification buttons and do it from your status bar anytime.

I use Widgetsoid. See here: http://www.appbrain.com/app/widgetsoid2-x/com.jim2. Easy to use and customizable.

If anyone use rom that has AppWidgetPicker.apk (app that group widget when you add widget to homescreen), you will experience no icon when you add the power widget. Oceangreen's method is use to fix that bug.

Thats like saying long press on the screen to place widgets on the homescreen.
Very useful information - sticky this

lololololololol

Thanks, it works.
I have Simply Honey 3.1 ROM installed and its an issue that the powercontrol widget doesn't show any icons. I tried this and there it was! The powercontrol widget icons are back!
This is what i did.
1. Added the powercontrol widget to the desktop. (no icons are appeared, only the empty boxes)
2. I pulled down the notifications bar, and enabled GPS toggle. Voila! the powercontrol widget's icon all appeared.
3. I turned off GPS in the powercontrol widget. (all the powercontrol widget's icon, remained)

Yeah it worked! Some custom roms or badly upgraded roms tend to have invisible icons in power control widget. Please state that in the first post so that users wont get confused

Kool, worked like a charm

No it's describing a workaround for a bug.
What you've described is a feature.
A bug is the opposite of a feature. In other words you couldn't be more wrong.

[Q] Toggle switches in status bar

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.

[Q] Halo 2.0

How can I use toggles in Halo 2.0? I have watched the videos, however none of them explain setup. I have tried the halo app and pinned apps in Halo, and also tried status bar widgets with power toggles. Nothing I have tried lets me toggle settings in Halo. Does anybody have an idea for me? Thanks in advance!

Its a third party app called power toggles. Download it from the play store. Then open the app and enable the notification widget.
It should then appear in halo.

Okay I have power toggles... It appears in halo with a lock icon. I tried whitelisting power toggles, but that doesn't work either. I'll try a reboot.

So after a reboot I still have the power toggle icon with a lock on it?

Did you open the app and enable the notification widget?

Yes the notification widget is enabled. The toggles display in the status bar, just not in halo.
