Solved: Go to Market and look for "Widgetsoid2.x"
Thanks for everyone's help!
Hello,
I use CyanogenMod6 on my x10 mini and I've gotten really addicted to the power Control Widget!
I'm not 100% sure if it is the default power control widget for gingerbread/froyo or cyanogenmod specific, but you can really modify the widget before putting in on the screen. On the arc however, one can only put it on the screen with the 5 default switchs.
I tried a lot of other widgets from the market, but NONE could give me the same features! Is there someone who can help me to get the cyanogenmod power widget on the arc?
Thank you,
Linkin
Widgetsoid2.x is what your after i think
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jim2&feature=search_result
omg, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Only question I have left:
The widget wants the permission to:
"directly call phone numbers"
Do you know why the widget wants to do this?
I guess it's because you can assign a contact to one of the widget button if you want to and then pressing this button launches the call straight away (no pop up menu or confirmation needed) !
thank you! Right at this second, I found this page:

There every permission is explained!
Thank you for helping me, I love this APP!!!!

Also if you are in a app like the browser and want to enable something like auto-rotate i use mysettings, and enable it in the pull down notification bar,

thanks, but I've never used this option in CM. I only use the power control widget
Widgetsoid2.x is a great app, but... on xperia Arc the power controls in notification bar work only in popup mode. Selecting the icons directy in the notification bar does not work.

That's a limitation in android, unfortunately.
I had an HTC Wildfire with CyanogenMod 7
It had a power bar on notification as a standard and it worked perfectly so I don't think it's Android...
You had a rooted device running a custom rom, which had been tweaked to have this behaviour. I had the same thing running on my hero - the point is that it came built into the ROM, not as a separate app. You arent going to be able to get this behaviour by running an app on an unrooted stock rom.
Now that the arc is rooted, hopefully cyanogenmod will get ported to it, or someone will make some other custom rom with these tweaks, then we will get this functionality.
Exactly my point.
It's not an Android limitation per se. It can be done in a rooted customized rom. I just thought that it could be done by an app on a rooted device.
Thanks

Hi, I finally got around to dumping wm6.5 and installing android CM7_HoneyComB_V57 on my HD2; Its BRILLIANT should have done it ages ago! The only thing I have found is the power settings on the notification bar don’t have a data toggle. I’ve solved my problem for now by using a 'power bar' widget but id like to know if there is a way to get a data button on the original power settings OR if not is there a way to just remove that power bar totally. It seems daft to have both.

In CM7 you can customise what toggles show up, the order, and more. In the settings application, click on the CM tab the navigate to statusbar tweaks and look for power menu toggles there are a whole bunch of options to customize to your liking.
nice work mate

Hi,
I am sorry I couldnt resolve StatusBar FC problem yet with V3 TEST Hybrid ROM....
For the Time being until that bug is resolved, I am planning on Removing ROM Control from v3 Stable release to allow users to have a ROM without FCs..
I will include Quick Panel Toggles in Statusbar instead if you guys want ROM Control Removed depending on Votes I see in Polling which will close in 72 hrs..
Dont worry for those who Miss ROM Control, I will put it as a flashable Patch that will automatically remove QuickPanel Settings and replace it with ROM Control..
Remember, With QuickPanel settings you will have option for Onscreen HW Keys as Addons since it was ROM Control that wasnt allowing me to provide u with it...
Decide and let me know..
Quick Panel settings all the way!
Rom control is nice but I like on screen buttons much more
Besides, if you also make a patch for Rom Control (as you said) then everyone is happy.
I´m too.
I'm still on V2.0 so I don't use Rom Control. On the other side, I use the quick panel toggles a lot! And as f_zurzolo said, if you give flashable patch, everyone should be happy
so --> Quick Panel voted
Definitely a wise decision I feel. ROM Control is great but the simplicity of Quick Panel seems to fit better for this ROM...
AND it sounds like it makes your life a lot easier so really that's most important You're doing us all a HUGE favour developing this at all, the most important thing is making it as easy and un-stressful for you as possible
i prefer quick panel bec. i love a ROM without FC's
i hate a Rom that have FC's what ever features is it.....
thanks for ur development
i cant w8 once my phone repaired at sony service and once i receive my phone i will first unlockbootloader and then root and last flash this great rom!!!

FC or not, I still prefer quick panel more, still on 2.2 because of that.
I prefer ROMControl, because I love center clock style and weather in notification bar
I vote for quick panel
quick panel for me.
quick panel for me to
i like rom control as i can get center clock and many tweaks
and am fed up of quickpanel on all rom VOTE FOR ROM CONTROL
ROM Control important tweaks
ROM control allows tweaks like battery only text in statusbar and power saver (data and sync action) that I found really important!
Can you post addons to replace these functions?
Vote
Quick panel also... Rom Control deos not work for me, after reboot Start-up Tweaks revert to original setting (no boxes tiked). Also in CPU setings i did not found setings for I/O scheduler...
Quick Panel also, I don't see any features in Rom control that is crutialy important (most of the features doesn't work either way)

If you remove Rom Control will you provide BATTERY 1% MODS as you did in previous version?
Either way is fine with me.
quick panel here
Quick panel + battery mods
First off...many thanks to ALL you devs who have already contributed and will contribute in the future. Your work is necessary as phone manufacturers ship less than perfect handsets. You guys truly make these products sooooo much better.
From what I've been gathering...a number of folks would like some of these ideas listed added to this wonderful phone. Donations shall be in order of course for all the hard work.
- The ability to hide the ever present location "bullseye" Icon
- Replace the battey icon with a custom one (I always thought that multicolored round one with the percent in the middle was coooooollll), or shrinking the stock percentage and placing it on top the battery.
- Bottom speaker gain control
- knock off works if you tap the empty area of the home-screen in a 3rd party launcher (the stock ui sees it as one big app, which is why it won't work unless you double tap the top status bar.)
- Keeping the top status bar and the lower nav buttons transparent in 3rd party launchers (the stock ui again sees it as one big app, rendering the bars opaque)
- Black or gray theme for settings menu....the white is a bit harsh.
- Double tapping the home nav button brings up LG Voice Mate...or that voice control LG app thingy.
Hide the brightness and volume sliders in the notification panel please!

The VZW model never had them in the first place.
This is a request thread and should go in Q/A or general.

No worries.
I'm working on these atm..
but I have F320 Systemui..
no one sent me the Verizon of At&t systemui.apk..
And for the 1% Battery MOD, Framework.res & Lge.res is also required..
EDIT: My friend here, djkinetic sent me those files.. I cannot see or test anything..so i will send it to him for testing. But not everything at once, one by one slowly..
How about removal of the AM/PM please and location icon (as was mentioned)
What kind of bottom speaker control are you asking for?
I support the dark settings theme.
At least you can change the navbar to be black instead of white, and the settings menu to be tabbed instead of one gigantic list. I was worried during initial reviews when they said you couldn't change those.
I'd like to add - ability to customize navbar to add other button types, or at least the customization of the navbar hold-n-drag options (currently holds voice search, Google Now, and something else).

All in good time. The beauty of a flagship device is very highly likely CM support.
AOSP please
How about a permanent Back, Home, Multitask, Menu button layout in AOSP style with a semi transparent background on the homescreen...
Of course, I'd prefer complete AOSP.

Sitting here streaming Slacker radio, dawned on me:
customizable knock patterns! like 2 knocks for skipping a track, change wake up to 3 knocks, etc.
- knock off works if you tap the empty area of the home-screen in a 3rd party launcher (the stock ui sees it as one big app, which is why it won't work unless you double tap the top status bar.)

Just use Nova gesture double tap + tasker task to lock the screen.

Why buy the G2 if all you want is AOSP? You might as well have waited for the N5.. I don't understand why people buy a phone that has some pretty cool features, only to flash AOSP and lose most of it... I get that a lot of what the G2 does can be built into AOSP with different apps but i guess I'm the only one who buys the phone for the experience that was intended by the manufacturer.
Ok guys, was able to make many things and tested them too! Need to fix a few things. Its 4 am here,by 11am i will make a new thread in themes section
Yes, yes, it's possible to love a phone. Heck, you sleep next to it, don't you? Rate this thread to indicate your love for the Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact, all things considered. A higher rating indicates that the Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact is an incredible phone that you enjoy tremendously. You love it.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
it is a fine and quick device. But after using a custom rom on my z3 compact, i am just missing a few things that i find essential.
1) missing the data traffic monitor 2)missing the option to switch recents and back buttons.
3) missing the 2 extra buttons on the navigation bar.
(yes, they are from gravity box in xposed module)
the standard file explorer is also very bad. it always goes to download map standard, when you want to move or copy a file.
and it has facebook, avg and amazon apps that you can't delete and facebook even has an facebook app manager app that doesn't show up and you need to disable it through the apps menu.

Well that is something new to me. Didn't know that system ui tuner was actually an option. Made the wrong assumption that you meant changing things through the normal menu's. System ui tuner only has options for do not disturb and status bar. No navigation bar . I do have to say that I just updated the software today to a version with the security patches from 1 April.

thanks for the answer, what a pity! so we will probably have to wait for root also to be able to re-arrange navbar buttons :crying: or maybe that is also possible via adb and someone comes out with a solution earlier? :fingers-crossed: what do you think master @serajr? :laugh:
ps. my z2c should be delivered in a couple of days maximum from now! :victory:
@Dxue I know you will be loving me..! :laugh:
I could swap navbar buttons! :victory::victory:
just used this app info who pointed me there was found here!! :good::good:
ps. that app is simply great! apart from swapping the back and recent buttons, I could also add two extra buttons (one for showing the volume panel so I can avoid pressing the hw buttons for doing that, and one for expanding the notification panel) see screen!

that is a great app! thanks for the heads up:good:.
after reading it, i suddenly remembered reading this last year too! I just never took the time to actually remember it, because i used xposed to do all that and felt it was an unnecessary app. UNTIL NOW! hahaha.
btw, i like the theme/icon pack that you are using. mind telling me where you got that from?

newbee, but love it
hello, all
i'm newbee in android phone
but i love this phone for basic (but importants) points
- good autonomie
- compact size
- good apn
- a full 5" screen in a small formfactor
So far I really like this device. It's my smallest device yet and I love it. Performance is great and battery life is outstanding. Low light performance with the stock camera app is my only gripe as it seems to add artifacts. Hoping gcam will be available before too long. Decent case selection especially when compared to the Essential.

On global version:
I know this is a known issue, but from playing around it looks like it is triggered by long pressing certain app icons in the home screens.
Holding down the clock widget briefly (until the trash icon appears at the top) will restore the status bar.
For example, if you have the status bar showing, long pressing the settings icon will do nothing, but long pressing Facebook or Instagram will make it go away. Long pressing Youtube does nothing, but long pressing the built in calculator app makes it go away. So the issue is not limited to 3rd party apps.
Hopefully someone smarter than me can apply some logic to this behavior.
?
Nice, I tried with a thrid party weather widget and the bar appears., and dissapear when I hold shazam for example.
Best regards.
I've just been force quitting Nubia launcher when that happens. Fixes it every time.

I asked to Nubia for a solution to this problem like 1 week ago, and they said me nothing about it.
Congrats man, seems you solved a problem! :good:
Regarding the icons when you install a new application, I have noticed that if you change the settings of the grid in the launcher, you find them, then you can remove them and when you add it, it will not tell you that it is already added, in case that it has happened to them
The software is total trash.
Someone with more experience. It is not about being smart. Its about the experience.

Yes it lets you select English at the startup. The ringtone and notification tone menus are still Chinese though.
