Hi,
The notification bar of the stock Nexus 7 rom is really useless except the notifications. Is there any way to add toggles like Samsung Galaxy series phones to the notification bar ?
also, in description of some custom roms, I read:
Custom Navbar Targets (Up to 7)
Custom Navbar Ring Targets (Up to 5)
What does that mean ?
Thanks.

Thank you. That's a good one. Although I was looking for a something integrated to the systemUI, Power Toggles does what I need.

there's always notification toggle as well, which should do exactly what you're looking for
Best way to get the integrated experience is to use AOKP or CM10 (or one of the variants).

what do you mean by "integrated experience" ?
do I have to wipe data when passing from Stock 4.1.2 to any custom rom (4.1.2) ?

The only way to get then built into the systemui is to flash a rom that has em. Yes you will need to wipe data going from stock to cm10 or aokp. I would suggest buying titanium backup and use that to backup all your apps. Then once reflashed on your custom Rom reinstall TiBu and restore apps you absolutely need data from like games. And then just restore the app only for apps you don't needs data from.

I use SwitchPro Widget rather than ones that come with the roms. Plenty of custom options. Well worth the price.

notification toggle
There is actually an app called "notification toggle" - https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwiZGUuajR2ZWxpbi5ub3RpZmljYXRpb25Ub2dnbGUiXQ..
no linky.
+1 for notification toggle..good app.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
+2 for 'Notification Toggle' in Play Store. Unbelievable # of choices, including single-digit battery %, user apps, all the normal toggles.
thanks for all the solutions , apps that are suggested on this thread.
I've tried most of them and they seem to be working as requested.
However, the best solution is to use a rom with integrated features.
I've used Cookies&Cream 10/16 1.3.1 and it's fine enough.
thank you all...
Power Toggles, Notification Toggles, 1TapQuickBar and Notification Bar Deluxe are all I know

Hey Guys/Gals!,
Just wanted to make this quick thread and ask everyone what would YOU like in a ROM? I've been flashing all types of ROMs for a multitude of devices and have never made one before. That has changed, I'll be making and releasing my first ROM for this device.
It'll be built from source and will have any additional/available goodies I can bake in too So please let me know your thoughts and/or requests
Requests so far:
- Undervolting
- Button changing toolkit (Shapes and positions of the nav buttons so that everyone can choose their favorite )
- Ability to have the buttons and notification bar at the bottom, to save space
- A permanent menu button
- Combination of SuperNexus' battery life, ParanoidAndroid's hybrid modes, DPI central control, status bar and navigation color control, AOKP like ROM manager and tweaks
- SetCPU like control with profiles, system app mover built in, optional choice to click which apps to pre install
- GPS lock tweaks for faster GPS connection, undervolting (which was already said), custom vibrations, tablet style notification bar on bottom of the screen, center clock, custom led indicators for different apps, any other speed tweaks you can bake in!
- Expand desktop feature like on paranoidandroid!
- Built in boot loader changer.
- Paranoid Android, tablet mode + keys. Boss.

How so? Like for the nav buttons on the bottom?
Ability to have the buttons and notification bar at the bottom, to save space.
And a permanent menu button.
More specifically, being able to launch different shortcuts from the navigation buttons.
Possibly even having the ability to toggle the navigation buttons either by long pressing the back button or whatever, while returning with a swipe up from the button type thing.
Just some ideas that I've used on my TF201 running Eos.

It was supposed to remove the nav buttons when in full screen mode, but it never worked for me (Nexus 7)
Thanks again for the feedback everyone! Keep them coming

2 Features that I think I had in MIUI-XJ on the desire:
1. The ability to lock apps with a password / swipe code.
This was great for me as I could just swipe to unlock my phone, then lock down email and social networking apps. I wasn't concerned about the dialer or contacts.
2. In the same vein, MIUI also had private mode. Hit the button and your call history is hidden as well as all your SMS messages. Microsoft WP8 has the child mode. Something like that would be nice for those times when you hand your phone to someone else.
The ability to speak to God.

Hiya
Is there a way of switching between 2g/3g without having to enter the menu and tick the box?
Currently using powertoggles and it just redirects you to the menu.
Cheers
There are widgets but if you flash a custom rom, you are able to do it from notification bar
p.s.: Did you try at Play Store before posting?
Would like to do it via the notification bar if possible, I have tried a few apps but both redirected rather then switched.

I'd recommend the latest CyanogenMod nightly. It has this feature (toggling data modes in quick settings) and is in my opinion, a lot stabler and stock-like than most other custom ROMs.

I just want a clean stock rom with a smaller navigation bar/soft keys so that I go to use my nexus like in expanded desktop on custom rom but still be able to use drag down notification bar.
Any suggestion guys on how am I able to do that?
Expanded desktop can be set to only hide the nav bar in some roms. I use that in SlimBean.

A stock ROM + Expanded Desktop = Not a stock ROM anymore.
Go ROM shopping, it's your only option.

Haha I gonna try PA then. Love the Halo thing
Or you could use

and then install pie control if you want it, this way you can keep the stock ROM? Its a lot easier to just use a different rom though

Hey all, I unlocked/rooted my phone and I'm wondering if there's anyway to customize which settings are in the notification bar? I'm hesitant to install a new rom because the stock rom has been solid, and I had less than stellar results on past android devices when using custom roms (random fc's, slowdowns, etc, even with CM).
Anyway, I basically want a quick flashlight toggle, and maybe put a few more quick settings options in there. Would it require a new rom?

Thanks, another question... what about customizing the unlock screen? Like dragging the slider up opens voice search and left opens camera?:good:
Install battery widget reborn, it has nice notification area, with flashlight, wifi settings, bluetooth, data sync, pretty much everything you have in quick settings

I'm pretty sure that it would require a ROM to put it on the lock ring but there's a camera lockscreen widget and you can touch and hold the nav bar on the lock screen to get search

OP, this is a Nexus. You won't find more functional ROMs. Just pick one and flash it.
I know certain ROMs come with extended desktop/pie controls but is there a flashable mod anywhere with that feature? If so, can something like that be ported to the Nexus 10 for use on the Project Flaming Monkey ROM? I wish PFM and ParanoidAndroid merged: that ROM would be perfect.
Try this. I've been using it on my N10 for a couple of weeks & it works fine. I haven't tried a custom ROM yet so not sure how it compares to the pie controls in those. The developer says he'll be adding more functionality soon. He also made it available free to xda members here. It's a couple bucks in the Play Store.

I'm using Purity ROM with Trinity Kernel. (see my signature for links). Flash the free LMT zip which has adds PIE plus more desktop extensions. I also bought Smart Statusbar+ for an auto hide statusbar.
LMT: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150
Smart Statusbar: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kiumiu.ca.statusbar.free&hl=en
An alternative is Full!screen which I used to use on rooted stock along with LMT.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.tsorn.FullScreen&hl=en
Have fun.
I've used LMT in the past, when I've tried other ROMs. I always find myself back using AOKP ribbons. For whatever reason I dig it. LMT has a ton of functionality though. Also, if you use nova launcher, it can hide the status bar. I like to hide my status bar and the nav bar and use the bottom ribbon for nav controls.
I use Full!Screen and like it very much.
I just wish it wouldn't constantly pop up screen notifications saying that it was granted super user privileges, even when it's not in use.

I think you turn that off in SuperSU or what ever you are using. That was not an issue when I used full!screen.
