hi as im not a dev and havent got a clue how this works, i thought i would ask in here.
it would be very much apreciatet to get the reboot option and reboot to recovery in the shutdown menu back like in some of the p-roms added to 2.3 roms
and would it be possible for someone to make the notification bare menu like i had on my desire which allowed for toggling wifi and other things just by pulling the bar down and pressing a button. like this:

best regards and thx to all the devs for making great roms and tweaks

Yeah, unfortunately none of those are available in the current 2.3.4 roms and these features aren't that easy to implement.
CM7 is on the way though and it has these and many other features built in, so follow the progress of that
The currently available alternatives that you can use on 2.3.4:
Reboot / Recovery / Bootloader options - Quick Boot app from the market (doesn't add those options to shutdown menu, but you can do those reboots from within the app)
Notification power controls - Quick Settings (puts a shortcut to itself in notification), Widgesoid (adds power control to notification, but it's not directly clickable), Power Controls Plus (same as previous), QuickDesk (custom dashboard, probably the best option).
Good luck.
i will do that then but it is some of the most usefull and nice features to have i believe.....

These mods have now be included in CM-5.0.5. So I have taken down the links. Please download CM-5.0.5 and install. If you have issues with it then post them here please.
I would first like to thank those that have helped me along the way. Thanks ChainsDD for helping me realize Android development isn't that hard. Thanks Cyanogen for the awesome roms and for the inspiration to innovate. Love your cool features. And lastly thanks to all the other devs for the great mods (optedOblivion and arctu to name a few)
Alright on to the details.
The mod has options to turn them on or off, but they cannot be used together. This is by design because if you are skipping songs and the screen wakes up then you are wasting battery and taking events away from the lock screen. (May change this later if you guys want)
1st Mod: (TrackballWake)
- Allows the user to wake the screen using the trackball (No extra apps its built-in to OS)
- Option is under the System Settings -> Sound & Display -> Trackball Settings -> Trackball wakes screen
- Option is off by default
2nd Mod: (TrackballSkip)
- Allows the user to skip to the next song if music is playing and the screen is off.
- This is done by double-tapping the trackball while the screen is off.
- A double-tap is two consecutive presses within about half a second.
- Option is under Music App -> Settings -> Use trackball to skip
- Option is off by default
Two different versions now:
1) trackball-SuccessW-WSv01.zip - This includes the Successive Notifications v0.4
2) trackball-NoSuccessW-WSv01.zip - This does not include Successive Notification v0.4
This should fix the force close issues for people as the previous version had a new implementation of Successive Notifications which apparently has some bugs. If you have problems with Successive Notifications then post in that thread please.
If you get a force close or unexpected behavior, please put it on pastebin.com and post the link on this thread. Please include which version you are using and what happened.
Donation:
Please donate if you like my work. It helps keep me motivated and working hard on Android.
Install:
- Nandroid Backup
- Simple install CM-5.0.5
Again, note for now you cannot use these two mods together (and TrackballWake takes precedence)
Source is on Github now.
Saving for potential changelog if need be.
Very impressive man
You are a lifesaver. Since my power button has gone south, I don't have a way to keep a lockscreen (using keyguard disabler) and cut the screen off after it has been cut on, is there any way that you could remap another button to power it off?
Giving it a try!
Will edit with results.
Edit: Seems to be working fine so far, been waiting forever for this mod. It reverted some of the changes I have had from BakedGoods (clock font color, etc)
HAWT! I've been wanting to be able to turn it on with the trackball! WOOT... I'm trying now.
Does this turn the screen on when you move the track ball or on a trackball click?
sounds nice! will definitely use the 1st one!

Here is a services.jar for this that has been modded to clock, date, and roam/network to white. just remove everything after .jar and push to framework then reboot.

There is one that you can flash in recovery. Nandroid first for cmoa reasons.
So many thanks, is what I've expecting sice I bought my nexus.

How would you distinguish between a volume change and a song skip or previous? Seeing as the volume buttons do work while the phone is sleeping.

Tap or long press ?
Tap or double tap ?
loving your work,thanks so much..been waiting for this since i bought my n1
trying it now.... thanks!
Made my day
Double post
Works great. Thanks. Here are some suggestions:
1) Make it so a second click then unlocks the screen. I got used to doing that with the menu button when I had my Magic.
2) Make it so a volume button double-click changes tracks. I had this feature on a Sony Ericsson phone once.
Anyone know how difficult this would be to implement? I realise the switch is available on a long press of the power button but, coming from MIUI on the HD2, I loved how everything was available as a toggle on the pull down.
This would indeed be very useful, I generally toggle Wifi and Data one after another and having them side by side will be good.
I even tried Extended Widgets and Widgetsoid, but they have kind of half baked implementation. I think in recent CyanogenMod builds, this feature was available as part of custom Power Widgets, so was hoping that a custom ROM would have this too(I am still on rooted stock). But seeing that OP is on Villain ROM, looks like will have to wait for AOSP builds to come out, unless someone has an answer.
hi,
I have put Villian Rom 1.4 (KF2). I was wondering if its possible to get the Reboot option when I press the power button (hard switch on right side) of phone
thank you

Yes i have it installed. but can;t find the tweak for this. Any help?
Any of the mods that have 'advanced power menu' in the title will do the trick.
unfortunately i dont see one
About half way down you'll see tweaks that say part 1 of 3
They have power menu, crt, overscroll, etc in the names

I have the latest version of VR Tweaks and VillainRom 2.0 ; that might be the problem.
All the tweaks say VR2.0 - terribly sorry for not reading your post carefully enough.
There also should be APM tweaks for v1.4 still on VT
Or look though the VR thread, there will defo be a link to a zip to flash in there, or search inside the thread for APM or advanced power menu and VR1.4,
I had a look and it says VR2.0 not sure if it will work with 1.4. Any ideas?
Themed section has one works on VR extended power menu etc.

Hi I'm looking for a mod to show the navbar controls in the power menu
I'm using kaos droid ROM which I think is based on cm10.1
I've used a ROM previously that had this feature I think it might have been aokp, I'm not totally sure but I'm wanting to stick with this ROM while getting this feature if possible
Can anybody point me towards a mod that will work on my nexus 7?
Thanks in advance
Are you referring to this?

No I already have this which I want to use so that I can run all apps in full screen, but there is a mod which will insert the navbar buttons (home, back, recent apps) into the power menu so that you can still access them when expanded desktop is enabled.
It's that mod that I'm looking for
I recently upgraded to an S9+ from an S5. The S5 I could do anything to as I had unlocked the bootloader and had root of course. One of the cool things that was easy to change was the Startup Animations to basically whatever an individual wanted. Is that even an option with the S9+? Also, I am missing the advanced power menu options that include screenshots, restart, restart to recovery, and so on. Are there any mods out there for this? Thanks.
Your question is very good, coinciding with so many people are having the same question, I am waiting for the best answer from other friends
Hey.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.noxx.apm&hl=de <-- This is almost same looking and working Power menu what i have found... ROOT neeeded.
Unfortunately for myself and many others, as of now, root is not possible as I have a US unlocked version 965U1. I hope to have root at some point but definitely not going to hold my breath. So any solution to an advanced power menu would have to be a non-root option.
