I'm afraid not. That kind of actions are highly unlikely to be modified by custom rom builders like cyanogenmod. Not entirely sure, but i believe the notification bar shows up when you activate the app switcher by holding the home button. That way you can access the notification bar in a rather quick way.

In apps like Camera yes, it's possible in ParanoidAndroid, but in games notif. drawer is hidden and it's forced.

Two Little Things

1 - Any way to remove the vibration notification? I like to have vibrate on all the time, but I'd like to remove that icon.
2 - How do you set a full wallpaper? Even the ones Samsung gives you can only be snipped. I'm currently on Go Launcher, and those wallpapers are full sized. Anyone know how to make all images full size?
Thanks in advance.
you have to have the proper resolution for the wallpaper the samsung ones wont strech because of it.

Has anyone looked into this? I find the ever preset icon annoying enough to not use the feature. Is there an app to hide status bar icons?

I don't think I'd want to do that. I just want to get rid of unneeded, persistent icons. Especially since so many apps stick things in there just to prevent from closing.
i too cannot stand that stupid vibration icon, i know its in vibrate, hy do i need an icon for it also

Exactly! I also just installed the awesome Badass Battery Monitor * and am really interested in a solution for hiding unneeded notification icons. I can't believe this doesn't exist.
* - "awesome" is my opinion, "Badass" is actually part of the app's name

Sorry but another guy having problem with notification item. Certain apps like GTA 3 will stay on my notification bar after exiting the game. I tried the clear button but it won't go away until I reboot my phone. Any alternate way to get rid of?
Errrrrrr sorry I couldn't resist my question when I saw notification question.

Don't think it can be done on a stock ROM.Best route to do this would be to root and use a cooked ROM as they allow greater customization, plus there are themes available for them such a sthe Omega ROM with 15 button toggle and slider or no slider.

[REQUEST][AOKP] Toggle Data

Would it be possible for someone building AOKP to put in a mobile data toggle for the notification bar? It is the ONLY thing that is keeping me from using this on the daily. Devs, rock on.
It is already there I think.

You can try these.... I prefer the Power Toggles it allows you to put a whole lot more into the Notification Bar than any Rom I have come across.

Notification bar pull-down dim?

Hi, I was wondering if there was a mod that could be added to the DNA that enabled the screen to dim behind notifications when the notification panel is expanded?
I'm running newt's NOS M7 rom.
thanks!

I think it's AOSP feature, not sense.
So if you will have a AOSP-based rom you will have it without any mods.
But I may be wrong.

Hmm, I haven't used AOSP in a while. I'll have to try it out and see if I can port it

meh, i'm glad htc didn't do this. i'm pretty sure this feautre is what lags up the notification dropdown bar on all jellybean devices. my nexus 7 notification bar sucks..it's so laggy. and when samsung switched to JB and added that feature, their notification bar is like 20fps and lags down like crazy compared to when they had a flawless constant 60fps dropdown on ICS..kinda same with AOSP. the ICS dropdown was a higher FPS and was faster and less laggy; project butter my ass.
Works flawlessly for me on PAC. No lag whatsoever.

Me too, if anything the JB animations did nothing to decrease performance in Android. Everything I've seen is smooth, ICS however not so smooth.

|REQ| Brightness adjust

I am a fan of touchwiz and one of my favorite features found in touchwiz is the pull down menu. I haven't used the latest PA and don't know if it is implemented yet, but I would like to be able to adjust the brightness from the pull down like touchwiz.

because its a couple more clicks away and im insanely lazy and i thought it was all about having less steps to be more productive? lol also you guys dont have the "swipe" on notification screen to get to quick settings which blows my mind even more than not having brightness sliders haha

Well, if the features that you want aren't here, there are a thousand other Roms you can use....

funny that you said that and then said #stayparanoid haha. I'm staying for the recents and smoothness, ill survive without the others, just wondered if there was a logical explanation as to why those features were absent or if they were being implemented ever, all good, thanks!
