This started with the update to Gingerbread on the Evo 4G. The power management settings were hidden from view unless you knew how to find them so I made an app that granted access to those settings on the Evo. I know that the Evo 3D has is listed in the settings menu, but there's no app drawer widget for it so I installed it on my 3D so I could easily access it from my homescreen. I'm just posting it here for those that might want to use it. It's a small app at 13kb and only sends out an intent for the power saving settings then finish() so it takes no memory outside opening those settings. Feel free to use anyway you want.
Thanks imma try it

Let me know if you have any problems. I may change the icon to match the power settings one. The only difference is the bolt in the middle.

Would anyone use a widget to turn this off and on? If it is possible I may make one if there is enough interest.

Hey guys, I was wondering if it was possible to add more categories to the sense 3.0 app drawer.
I'm not sure if categories is the right word, but basically, when you open up the app drawer, at the really bottom there's a slider and icons for switching from all apps to frequent and to download.
Thanks!
I have to say I'm curious too, I'm sure there is a way to, since you can rearrange the "categories" when you longpress on them, and there's more space too (it looks like to add more) so Im almost certain there's a way...just haven't found it yet

Yea, that's what I figured too. They leave the space for it, but I can't figure it out!
Also, when you longpress stuff, it tells you you can drag to remove categories, but all of the stock ones aren't removable

Yea its a simple mod
But is there a way, to create any additional categories there? Like games, utilities and so on? having all the apps together without even being to organize them the way I want is very messy for me.

Hi guys
Question: Does anyone know of an app, that can also give us Android users the kind of functionality on the Iphone 5 pull down? (See Screenshot)
I would like to see my mails listed, maybe the first 2 or so, with sms, weather etc?
I have looked, maybe this is a nice dev opp?
There are apps you use to get like this, but one single app, i think we still dont have...

yeah, sorry. I saw that. Perhaps should have mentioned it.
I'm on stock 2.3.4. and it said it wouldn't work.
so thanks for re-using the search function for me.
Don't get me wrong but the notification/widget implementation on iOS is not pretty efficient in my opinion.
I'd hate to be constantly pulling down just so see what's up with the weather or whatever.
I rather have my widgets on the unlock screen or desktop as Android does.
Cheers!

Nice. thanks
Radio is now 1.12.11.1119 and 4G is working inside my office building...no more having to go outside it seems.....
Updates to the Gallery. Now when you open it up you can pick the source
Update to the music app. Same with gallery...you can pick the source.
Update to how it handles 4G and WiFi..basically promising to turn them off when it knows it won't need them as opposed to always scanning.
Update to message app. There are more settings for personalization such as changing bubble colors and background
Low res contact fix which is common for all 4.1 I think
Color scheme change from green to blue to match JB
Pin enabled lock screen change
You can open up the maps to see where your pictures were taken
Stock browser has new look and is JB updated
Power saver
Keyboard has been changed up as well. Now can turn off arrows. Can't turn off prediction (well idk how to)
And more stuff...so far what I pointed out is just what I found to be important to me. I just now got to install this >.< I unrooted and updated.
Edit:
The HTC music app widget in the notification area now has the option to go back as well as pause and go forward
Wallpapers no longer scroll (figuring out of this is on purpose or if there's something i need to mess with)

I was hoping that the ringtone and notification volumes would be separate, but they are not.
Oh well, same old work arounds...
the sound in poweramp mutes temporarily whenver I hit the power button.
Soundhound app button
The soundhound app that was built in now has an icon in the apps tray. Never did before and I had to search for it. I know there was a workaround, I just never got around to doing it.

A feature I noticed when about to go to bed...in the clock app, when setting an alarm, the minutes dial now snaps to 10 minute increments. Pretty convenient compared to the previous endless spinning behavior!
is this the new gingerbread update?
Is it possible? For me its just a wasted home screen and annoying that the phone likes to default to it as the default home screen. Anyone else feel like Sense 5 would be better without it?

The only way to "disable" blinkfeed currently is to not set anything up and to set another screen as your home screen. It will still be sitting there on the far left, but ignorance is bliss, so you just don't swipe too far left. LOL I'm sure it will come with time, but the developers are still concentrating on getting all the bugs out before they start working on the tweaks.
You can just set a different homescreen as the default one.

On your HTC One Home Screen just swipe to left.
Just tap and hold on any blank area of the screen.
A Panel will appear on the top. From the available panel, you can set one as your alternative to BlinkFeed. Just tap and drag the panel you wish to set it as home screen. Drag the panel to “Set as home”.

Same here. At first I was like "What is this garbage???"
But after using it for some time now, I really like it. It is a great content delivery vehicle, and honestly has made twitter something enjoyable now.
I hated and despised blinkfeed to begin with. Eventually I kinda grew to it. Only have my Twitter feed instead of FB and all that going to it. Quite useful now.

Does anyone know if this is possible? I keep finding myself pressing back, but then it would just leave me back in the app drawer instead of closing the app drawer and bringing me home. I want to close the app drawer with the back button and not need to press the drawer button.
Bump!
It could be dependent on the launcher you are using. I am using Nova Launcher. When I am in the app drawer and I press back, it brings me back to home.

Yea, but would be nice if we could use it on Sense instead of Nova.
Only thing I don't understand is that it takes this same effort to close it by pushing the home button as it does the back button. Am I missing something?

It's rubbish because it doesn't conform to standards and as such is a sore thumb for the user experience. The purpose of conforming to standards is to create consistent operations throughout the product instead of having someone press the back button because it works everywhere else and not work here.

I agree to an extent, only because I find that compared to navigation on the One X, the app drawer makes things clumsy and you have one extra thing to think about. I don't like it, it's not intuitive, but this is a beautiful frackin phone so I won't complain too much.
