[Q] A Type of Notification Widget - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Again, with the knowledge of the Search Engine, I am not able to find any information about this. I have not been able to find anything. I am new to all of this, still in the process of customizing everything.
I would like to hide the status bar because its ugly and all the information I already have on my home screen because of different widgets, I was just wondering if there is any Notification Widgets out there.
Once the status bar is hidden, I can't access the notifications, and if anyone knows of a Widget that allows me to still see the notifications with the status bar hidden. Many thanks.

Idk of any widget like that, and I don't know what launcher you're using, but launcher pro and adw support hiding the bar, and gestures to make it pull down when u need to access it.

I am using adw.... I have it hidden, but I haven't seen anything to make it visible... do you by chance know where that setting is?

Setting one icon in the center?

My phone really only consists of 3 screens and I only use one icon for everything, which I have on my main home screen. Is there any way to place that icon in the center?
Since our phones only have space for four icons across, its kinda hard to place that in the center. I'm using launcherProPlus

Pretty sure you can change the amount of columns and rows using launcher pro. You can also resize icons using lpp as well

Tried to use launcherpro, but no such luck
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
launcherpro 5x5
install with long press NOT add button (lets you choose icon)
should work
if not, do a 5x5, use a clear icon and either just "know' its there, or choose wallpaper that has an "icon like" look in the middle - trial and error to line up "invisible" icon to wallpaper
hint - use non scrolling wallpaper option
hope that helps
ps - i'm pretty new to this so there may be a better way - but this way does work

CM7 suggestion

Cyanogen should add a feature where if you press the battery icon in the notification bar, settings would come out for it in a windowed box belox the notification bar. Same for the time and if you had wifi on for example you could click it to go to the wifi settings page. That would be so awesome!

This would require a complete rewrite of fundamental android elements and would not be a task someone would most likely undertake.

You can do something similar to what you want if you use the notification power widget. You can add toggles for all sorts of setting that lie within your notification bar that are very easy to access. You can enable in in CM settings.
I don't see the tiny wifi or battery icons as being good shortcuts. If you really want to though, try submitting a feature request on the cm bugtracker. It will get noticed more there.
Not very finger friendly up in the corner imo

How do you change ICON picture?

How do you change the app icon picture? I am rooted and running cyanogen nightly 110 with launcher pro. Yes I can change the dock icon but not the screen icon, it does not give you anything option to change to custom icon.......This question only few of you might know what I'm talking about.
Check out desktop Visualizer in the market.

thanks man
if you are rooted and not afraid of getting you hands dirty a bit, you can try using ninjamorph to change the icon permanently. It can replace any files you would like within a given application. If you like customization i recommend trying it. Ive changed icons, different color rosie buttons, and also icons in the status bar.

custom app starter on lockscreen

i am using cm nightly latest and wanted to setup the custom app starter with the ring i know on the rotary revamped u draged down to start selected app but when i do it on the ring it dont start the app so my question is which way do i drag as i have tried all ways possible.
Have you seen the sense 3.0 lockscreen? It is similar to that. When you touch the custom app starter, the icons of the apps should appear, and you drag the ring over the respective app icon you want to launch. The starter by itself cant launch anything
It'll probably be easier to explain vua screenshot, I'll post one when I get back.

I've only just got my head around how this works! It's pretty awesome. Is there any way to make the status bar drop-down one of the shortcuts so you go directly to notifications after unlocking the screen? I can't figure out a way of doing it currently.
Cheers!

Since you're rooted you can use autohide soft keys from the Play Store. It hides the Nav bar and you activate it by swiping up from the bottom. It takes ten minutes to get used to it. And while you're at it..You can hide the status bar on a per app base with the app settings module. You have to install the xposed framework first (and put the uninstaller on your sd, search it here on xds). You can then activate the status bar on swipe with smart status bar from the store.
Might take a while to set up this from scratch, but you end up with a screen without any buttons or bars as long as you don't call them. You asked for the transparent Navbar, I recommend the invisible one. See Screenshot to see what my nova settings, my browser (and every other app on my phone) look like, with bars hidden and bars called.

Its a wallpaper that comes with the G2. When you select a wallpaper, you can choose it as an option for where you want to get your wallpaper for.
I can confirm this works for me as well. Im using Action Launcher, and the status bar is transparent when i use Multi-Wallpaper.
the aicp rom for verizon phones does this. its awesome. not sure if its avail for tmo.

Did you mean "multi-photo" mode to set wallpaper? I've tried it on Apex Launcher but the navigation bar didn't become transparent [and yes I've enabled transparent bar in the display setting already]. Am I missing something here?

Sorry, it was my misreading that's caused the confusion, I thought it was on about status bar...
