I'm trying out the new GB release on my x10i and I'm really enjoying it.
Not sure if I'll stay with it because of all the bloatware and CM7 feels faster in general.
What I miss most is the Power Bar in the Notification Bar. It's by far the best and it even allows for fast 2G/3G switching.
Is there an app in the market that compares? The closest thing I've found is the Power Widget which
a) is a widget on the desktop, so I would have to hit the Home Button to use it, then come back to the app I was using; and
b) doesn't toggle between 2G and 3G, but instead sends you to the options menu.
Any suggestions are welcome.

switchpro app.
The app you recommend doesn't seem that different. It also appears as a widget. And the description in the store even says the 2G/3G is also a shortcut.
Am I missing something?

I have been looking for a widget to toggle MobileAP on and off since I use it as my primary internet connection at home, it sucks having to repeatedly turn it on and off every time I leave the house.
Might even be cool to have it automatically shut off based on location?
If something similar is already available, please link. I haven't found it. Thanks
If you use adw launcher you can make a custom shortcut to mobile ap, then just turn it on n off... Fast enough for me

how do you do that I am trying to figure it out?
Edit nevermind I found it under activities
You can try "tasker" in the market.
Yeah, but doesn't it change the wpa code every time its activated? Wouldn't you need to go into settings anyway to get it?

The passcode is the same once you set it up and the ssid.
I used Bettercut to setup a shortcut to the Mobile AP settings but not an actual toggle which would be nice.

It really sucks this was moved to Q&A, it's a dev post as far as I can tell. It would probably take 15 min. for someone savvy to make a widget that does this. I guess most of the devs don't really use mobileAP.
real laaaaate response, but both "AndSpot Widget" and "Mobile AP Shortcut" work real good. I personally prefer the first one, as the other one is kind of ugly.
Hi I'm trying to figure out how to create a custom shortcut to pull down the notification bar/window. I like to have the thing him hidden but am looking for a quicker way to access it than hitting menu doftkey and selecting notifications. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I use ADW EX.
It has swipe gestures that will do what you want. Pretty amazing app. Other launchers may do this, but I can only confirm ADW EX. It's the best launcher, IN MY OPINION. Others may have another fav (mainly b/c they don't like giving a developer $3).
I use LP Pro..so it's not that I don't want to spend the 3 bucks. More like I put my money on a different racehorse.
What I'm asking is definitely possible, theres already a shortcut it's just in the menu. I just can't figure out how to pull it out and use it.
Edit: I was able to bind tje home button to opening the notification bar...it's not how I wanted to do it but it works. Would still like to see if anyone knows how to create a shortcut for it.

I use LP too. I have one of my swipe gestures on my dock icons set to open notifications.
Is there an app I can get wifi and blue tooth ect. Toggles in the notification bar like on my hero with cm7 or the galaxy tab? Or is it in a setting I have as yet not found? Sorry if its been covered. Did a search and cant find it.
Edit. And also the darn orentation lock. So miss that.

I'm using "Notifications Toggle". It's as close as what we're looking for but well, it works.

Hi guys was wondering if there is this app out there that can do the following...
You know when you swipe left or right you go to different windows from the home screen. Is there an app or something that wil allow you to swipe up or down from the homescreen to go to the window to the left x2 or to the right x2. I'm basically trying to find a way to get to my other windows in just 1 swipe as opposed to 2. It might not be much but I would much prefer it that faster if possible.
Anyone know of anything that can do this for me?
I use the "pinch and pick" method. (At least that's what I call it.)
Or hit the Home button twice (or just once if you're already on the Home screen).
That's an interesting idea but I would assume it would have to be built into the launcher you're using. Like home screen replacement Apps have swipe up for this and down for that but I haven't seen them have an option for swipe up for page x.

Try an app called Wave Launcher. It's not exactly what you described as what you're looking for but may be another solution, it's a fantastic app! Here's a link for you:

Swipepad is free in the market

Go launcher, set it to show previews on swipe up (you can even make it so it only does that when you swipe up on a specific dock icon, too!)

Swipepad is the shizzle, too! Good find! Swipepad + wave launcher + go launcher = totally covert homescreen! No statusbar, no dockbar, just secret areas to swipe from!

Will that all eat up my battery a lot if I'm running stock everything non-rooted?
I'm really enjoying being non-rooted because surprisingly everything just WORKs. Battery life is great as I can get an entire 12-13 hour day out of it before it goes red.
Also...why Go Launcher? When I use to have it on my old Evo 4g whenever I would press the "home button" it would close Go Launcher and go back to the stock launcher...also...I have to use their own Friend widget (people widget) if you use it right? Or has that changed? When I used Go Launcher before the People widget I use to use from Sense disappears.
I'm completely stock.... Just download Wave Launcher and try it, if you like it then excellent, if you don't then uninstall... It's a free app so you lose nothing trying it. Good luck!

Stock unrooted, too. GO Launcher (like any alternate home app) doesn't allow the use of Sense Widgets but they have an alternative to most of them and the widgets are themeable. Battery usage is no more than usual and if you REALLY wanna squeeze all the juice you can from a charge, check out Juice Defender. And why GO Launcher? It takes the best parts of all the paid launchers (ADW, Launcher Pro, etc), improves on them, adds in even more functionality, offers tons of themes or the ability to create your own, and it's free! I use GO SMS, GO Contacts and GO Dialer, too. The GO Weather is borked though lol dunno why

Does anybody have an APK for the HTC WiFi toggle that actually toggles it on and off (DINC, DINC2, TB), rather than taking you to the WiFi settings page?
I've been wondering the same thing...
Power Control widget?
Not tbe whole power confrol widget. Just the single wifi toggle widget
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
I just use a single widget to do it. It actually can do both depending on where you hit it. If you hit it center, it toggles, if you hit it near the bottom of it, it takes you to WiFi Setup.
WiFi OnOff by Curvefish
I've been wondering why the WiFi widget takes you to the settings. Seems like a shortcut instead of a widget.

I use MySettingsPro.
I bring it up with a long press of the hard search button.
MSP has a one click WiFi on/off setting & a bunch of other stuff.
Beautiful Widgets has a wifi toggle widget.

Yeah, I have that installed. Dumb of HTC to exclude it.
Even dumber to make the WiFi toggle the same as the WiFi shortcut. UGH!
I'd still be willing to give it a try.
