Drop-Down Settings - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Coming from my OG Evo and Deck's ROM, I'm really missing the drop-down settings toggles on this phone. It's funny, too: I swore I'd never go back to Sense after I finally got rid of it for AOSP back in the Vaelpak days, but things are so smooth and flawless with the LTE that I actually have no desire to switch to anything else at the moment (I've only had the phone for a week, though).
Except for the toggles! I'm constantly finding myself flipping down the notification menu looking for a sound profile switcher or a 5-way brightness control or a WiFi toggle or even quick access to airplane mode. I know there are widgets available to partially cover this, but those aren't accessible from within other apps.
End communication.

Dont worry this will all come in due time. I think viper rom has some toggles already.

Well now it's just one more step... You just gotta press settings. I'm sure in due time a developer will create a rom with these settings.

Yeah, I know how to access the settings, but it's mostly the in-app access I liked.

Well GPS is technically two steps now. Click settings then location. Wish they left that with wifi, bluetooth, etc.
Not to worried about it. I'm sure it will be on a ton of ROMs.

ViperROM 1.2 has many of them. Can't wait for Zeus mods myself

Interesting. I might check it out, though I'm nervous about the review mentioning the high CPU usage.

A Thought - For the upcoming roms [Time Clock]

Like many of you guys, I really appreciate the benefits of a nice big clock widget. And I find the time on the application bar to be very redundant. I would like to see an option for that to be disabled in any of the newer upcoming roms. It will save precious space
Here's what it might look like
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I was going to do this to my vanilla bar morph... bc i use beautiful widgets...
i still have to test my new services.jar maybe ill use both...

Personally I like having the time there. That way when I'm doing something like browsing the web I can still see what time it is. Comes in handy when I'm on my lunch break.

yeah, there will definitely be instances when you'd want the time there. i think an option to display it on and off would be very handy

This is an option on cm6. I really can't wait for that to hit our phones!

I have been rocking a white notification bar since day 2... I got the date and notifications text black... Whenever I edit the clock it fc loops..
I'm going to start looking into this..
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
It would be great if the time display in the menu bar could be dynamic. When in an app have it display, when on the home screen, have it hidden.
What power widget is that? Definitely more useful than the android one.
I got the gauge battery and the switch pro widget. Highly recommend it. There are many different configurations.

What clock widget is that? I've been going crazy looking for it.
Thx!
it's fairly straight forward to remove yourself if you like. If you check this thread; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780614 There's a walkthrough. But be aware on the SGS the line item numbers for the clock and alarm are different than what he shows in that thread.

found the blue version yum
Wow this ROM definitely is a looker. Cant wait to try it out. Ill def be doing a youtube video (HoshOnline) on this. Thanks for the hard work man.
Suggestions for things to include would be:
Volume rocker to skip tracks
Camera button to wake phone
Half press camera to search
3g/1x fix
Advanced Power Menu
Quicksettings (Extended - latest with long press options)
Remap "Recent Apps" to Menu and Longpress home for Recent apps
Change the linkify .. app? (Disable the patent evasion)
Battery enhancements (dual core when using, single when sleep)
Disable the "optimized" data settings by HTC (disables/slows data during deep sleep)
360 or landscape rosie mods
Remove "Tell HTC" and usb bridge notification
Roaming Only option
Optimized multitask settings
(Pretty much all the mods on the forums hahah)
Personal suggestion:
Remove all the stock crap to slim the ROM (Including voicemail, facebook, twitter, languages other than english, car mode, tunein radio, mail, anything that can be downloaded from market)
Include file explorer, DSPManager, GooManager and Titanium Backup
Use the aroma installer (that thing is awesome)
Include a tweaks menu for making quick changes like the one in Charmelon ROM
Is there a changelog somewhere that I missed? Wondering what the rom features, the wallpaper in pics is cool and the white evo is pimp. Hopefully the rom is as badass as the pics. Suggestion...there are a crap load of stock moded n tweaked rom's already, do something different ..theme, different icons, tweaks menu like charmeleon, etc. Everyone is on the lookout for something different, want proof look at the people drooling for the last month waiting for VenomRom..lol..just my suggestions ..I appreciate anything you contribute to the community either way. Thanks for your time.

Do Your Downloads Continue With Screen Off on 3g or Wifi?

Mine does not. Running new 4.1 4.04. Every time I download some thing and the screen turns off I either have my download pause or download failed not completed. Is there a way to fix this??
What custom ROM are you using? Mine does the same (running MeanROM 2.7). Some ROMs are coded to purposely shut off pretty much everything except regular phone/text communication when the screen is off to save optimal battery. Personally I haven't looked into it enough to figure out how to change it though... :-\

That option has already been selected. Does not work on Wifi or 3g.
I use juice defender ultimate and I haven't noticed them stop if I customize an app to be able to run with screen off.
If I'm downloading a torrent I plug it in the wall and select never turn off in display settings. Just turn brightness down to like 5%.
I noticed it was an issue on the og EVO for me. Idk about anyone else, kinda just fixed it without asking about it.
When I was running a Sense Rom, even with those settings above, downloads would stop. I think it has to do with how many other apps you have running. As soon as Sense decides it needs some RAM to run a different app, it will kill the app currently downloading regardless of whether the DL is finished or not. At least that seemed to be my experience, and yes turning off the screen would also kill my dl's sometimes. I would recommend going to CM10 or another AOSP ROM. I have found that the latest CM10 builds Kushdeck is putting out are pretty much solid. I have been using it for a daily driver for about a month now, and I don't miss Sense at all.

I miss being able to near instantly load netflix, crackle, crunchyroll or youtube as soon as I get home, so much easier then plugging the laptop in. I guess I could always buy a atv or roku or upgrade to a smart tv. Not a good move for someone in between jobs lol

I have attached an undo for the wifi notification removal, although it has not fixed my widgets issue.
Worked great thanks!!

There was an earlier version of the De-Bloat script that removed ShowMe.apk,.odex and HTC_Widget_ShowMe.apk,.odex which causes the HTC widgets to be hidden from adding them. Sounds like you may have run the earlier version. I recommend first try flashing the "Fix" zip file on that post, and if still nothing, post in that thread, the Dev that made the script is really responsive and can likely help you out.

Lock screen notification pop up preview

There are certain features that are very important to me like being able to ready message on lock screen .. I'm very dissapointed that this phone does not have that option
I feel like we took a few steps back from previous phone software
I switched from the HTC one m8 and I'm considering switching back

I said the same thing. People argued with me and said the G2 didn't have that ability, but it certainly did. In the message/notification settings.
I really want that,option, as well as call reject, a native flashlight app, LG browser and task app(Verizon sucks), the ability to sync my Facebook calendar with LGs. There a ton of little things I'm missing

There's an app called Floatify that will show your messages on your lock screen. I haven't tried it out, but it appears to be getting some good reviews.

To read messages on the lock screen just get Dashclock widget and Dashnotifier extension. (may not even need the dashnotifier, can't remember for sure but I have both) and put the widget on your lockscreen in place of the clock,
See that's the awesome thing about Android is if you don't like something about your phone or want a certain feature.... Then change it! Between Apps and Xposed modules you can make a really nice stock ROM with pretty much anything you could ask for. Once we get the bootloader unlocked and start getting custom ROMs, forget about it, this thing is going to be a BEAST!

Xposed has the xblast module that has lockscreen notifications and lockscreen flash in it but it crashes sometimes so I use floatify and I love it. For flash light I use the g3 tweaksbox by assigning one of the volume buttons in "miscellaneous tweaks" when the screen is off.
