Try "notification toggle " from play store. It puts whatever toggle ya want on status bar. Or u can try apps like "switch pro". They make widgets.

How can I make it so when I press "Messaging" icon, it opens another app?

Hey.
I use another sms app and I want to make it so when I press "Messaging" icon which is on the main screen to open that app rather than the stock messaging app....?
I know I can drag the stock icon to the home screen, but I like the stock messaging icon and want to use that for this app......
please let me know
edit read wrong
Download the app Desktop Visualizer and use that instead
- nvm thought you could do it this way but it's not working for the icon -
Long-press home screen to get to the menu
Custom shortcut -> Applications -> Pick your activity (in this case: your alternate SMS app like Handcent or Chomp)
Press the logo on the left of "Pick your activity" and change it to the default Messaging icon
thanks, but looks like it would not use the default launcher, but it will use launcherpro or any other launcher.......

How do you change the default action when the Photon is plugged into the HD Station?

When plugging the Motorola Photon into the HD station, for now, I REALLY want to select Dismiss Picker and remember this selection so generally, it doesn't bother me again. However, I want to know that I can get the picker back if some day, I want to change the setting.
How do I clear this default should I chose to set it and have it remembered? I get that you can clear the default if you pick an app like Webtop. You can do it by way of managing applications / clearing defaults under settings for that particular app. But Dismiss Picker is not an app.
Any ideas?
Setting applications all. Scroll down to whatever is default now and click it then clear defaults.

In the second section of my question, I stated that I get that normally, you can go into settings and apps and change an app's default. But DISMISS PICKER is not an app.
Does anyone have any further information about this and how to get rid of dismiss picker as your default action when plugging the phone into the HD station?

I am pretty sure that you can drag the status bar down and choose from there. There is a notification that says connected to hd dock. click on that and you should be able to choose from there

[Q] How do you hide the main dock in ADW EX

I just update ADW and in doing so it changed my setup including not a big deal, however after looking through all of the menu settings I cannot figure out how to hide the main dock bar. I did have my setting backed up but when I restore then the system revert back to the new ADW defaults. Anyone figure this out?
I just figured this out a few minutes ago.
adw settings -> general behavior -> gestures -> swipe down actions -> open/close dockbar
go back to main screen, swipe down on your screen to close the dock bar
go back to settings and change your gesture back to whatever you were using.

Nice find, I just found a way myself by long pressing on the screen and choosing launcher actions than open/close dock bar.
Now to find out how to place an icon outside of the blue square in other words place an icon anywhere on the screen as before.

Found a problem with both methods, if you rotate your tab the bar comes back up and you have to swipe it again.
If you don't want the dock disable it in the settings

That setting is missing with the recent update also the secondary dock is now gone in this update.
Did the update remove full screen use? Unless I am not understanding the settings in the update. I have been messing with it for an hour. Last update was amazing, this one, seems to have lost some functions.

Apparently the recent update consoldate the old "Dock Bar" and the "Main Dock". They seem to have removed the setting for show/hide the dock from the settings menu, but like others discovered you can still toggle it via the old "show/hide dock bar" command.

The developer has posted another update the fixes the hiding of the bar not sticking also you can use the whole screen again to place icons. I like ADW again.
Easiest thing I've found is to use the "Open/close Dockbar" shortcut.
Longpress desktop ~ Launcher Actions ~ Open/close Dockbar will put the shortcut on the desktop. Then you can open or close it with one touch instead of swiping and/or setting/resetting your ADW Settings.

[Q] Wifi won't auto connect

Having a small but annoying issue here.
I find that if I turn on wifi with widgets or quickpanel in SystemUI, the wifi will take very long, or sometimes never auto connect. However, opening up settings and pressing scan results in instant connection.
Thanks in advance.
I don't have your issue and I use a notification panel created by the Power Toggles. (this was not an advertising message)
Try to create a shortcut to the WI-FI settings by:
- long press on 'desktop'
- select 'Shortcuts'
- scroll to the 'Settings shortcut', click on it;
- scroll to the 'Wi-Fi'
I know this is not so fancy like a widget or another setting app, but should be more quickly to access and I think is a workaround for your issue.

Realme 1 Notification not displaying.

Hi All,
I am using RealMe for 3 weeks now.
Seeing one serious problem here.
The phone manager app is cleaning the memory. So the apps in background will stop syncing and hence there are no notification messages coming.
I have experienced this problem with Outlook mails, Inshort news and with many other apps.
When I digged in, I found there are many places we can change the settings for notification messages. I have done all these changes. But no impact at all.
Moreover in status bar also there are no icon for new notifications.
[ only WhatsApp works as expected]
In some forum I found to solve this issue we need to turn off phone manager app. But I am not finding any place to disable this app.
Can anybody please help me out here what needs to be done?
Same problem here. And this is actually a very big problem for me. Everything else is great in this phone but this is ruining it.

Notification pop up remain for quite a long time which annoy while playing games or watching videos. The pop up should disappear when slide by finger like in many other phone.

You can switch back to normal theme and can see notification on lock screen then.
I have tried all other themes and no another theme supported a lockscreen notification.
May be a bug.
