How many of you were aware of Widgetsoid2.x's ability to have notification power widgets (if properly configured) with which you can toggle directly from the notification area (like under CM6.1/CM7) without having to toggle the widgets from a separate popup it launches first (like under Power Control Plus, Extended Controls, others)?
Screenshot taken using Widgetsoid2.x on Ginger-Tazz-Sense b3.
Not really a fan of the coloration of the notification icons. I like the widget controls however.

Me neither, for the notification area I had to color the icons black to be able to see them well (the background doesn't change no matter what in the notification area it seems) and set them to highlighted all the time (unless that was one of the other apps I tried). It definitely would be nice if the icons were more easily customizable - other apps were able to change the color of individual icons, and individual "active" indicators at the bottom.
The one-click notification control was definitely the winning factor for me.
yup, I liked the notification widget when I wasnt using CM7....it comes in handy
Other downfall is WiFi by and god just open the settings. Unless I'm mistaken.

Yeah, that would definitely be a bummer. I would probably use a combination of Widgetsoid2.x and another app in order to provide 1-click for WIFI in that situation.
I'm using Ginger-Tazz-Sense (beta 3 but beta 7 is out now) and this newer Sense interface already has some built-in toggles in the notification/status area, so I don't bother using Widgetsoid2.x for WIFI and some other things.
Check out my screenshot (fixed, ImageShack seems to have a problem with a period in the picture filename I had previously) in my first post ^ to see the second tab at the bottom of the status area, that's where the new Sense's built-in toggles are. Sure you have to make one more click to select that tab but it's still fast.
Yeah I am running beta 5 right now having the minor white screen but if i keep enough ram open i have no issue
this looks pretty neat. thanks

If you have any trouble configuring it the way you think it should work shoot me a message.
In general, it appears you have to keep the option checkmarked at first to open notification widgets as a separate popup which you then click on the widget you want from there. After that first time, THEN you can uncheck the open as popup option and it appears to work just fine from the notification/status area after that.
ye, i have never heard of this before,
but it looks clean and clear in a glance
Ok, I am done pulling my hair out so maybe I can pay someone else to do this for me lol.
I want a Transparent Status Bar exlcluding the Clock / Battery .. All I want is Notificatons on left hand side and Signal/Wifi on the right hand side.
I have been trying to change framework to make it work but however all I can manage to do is either make it completely dissapear or change the color. I thought that I could atleast hide the notifications by making the battery and clock display transparent but when I do that it off centers the wifi/signal bars and just doesn't look right.
I however have not been succesfull at making the Bar itself transparent.
So, to sum it up. I will pay for someone to do this for me or willing to accept any and all pointers on how to accomplish this myself.
Systemui controls expanded status bar and everything except the battery. In systemui goto res/layout/ you can set dip of items to say 0.9999999 to hide it. Also colors.xml in res/values/
Running ICScrewD ROM
So you want a transparent status bar with only notifications and wifi/signal without the clock on the right?
How much $$$?
u in the right forum bro?
@Thegodfather
Yeah, I would think this is the right forum as its a Theme request.
@Ssconceptz
Yes, transparent Notification Bar with just the notifications on the left and Wifi/Signal Icons on the right. No battery Icon or Clock.

Ill look into it but I heard the transparent bar doesnt work on the home screen of TouchWiz so this may be your issue. I am looking to remove the AM/PM as in ICS so I can probably test this too.

@ Thegodfather
Sorry bout my signature. I did have the Skyrocket for a few days but took it back due to it being a major annoyance. The new APN's they use for the LTE Data plan is stupid and gave me more data issues then I care to touch on.
Will update as soon as I get out of this reply
@ Ssconceptz
I don't use TWiz currently do to this issue haha. I am using ADWEx because I can totaly hide the Status Bar but I don't care for doing that tbh. I played with Launcher 7 and its statusbar replacement but couldnt get it to work right after pulling things apart so trashed that project. I dug into some MIUI Framework but I can't even start to compare what they changed.
Is there a way to replace the StatusBar.apk from system with a customized version without it breaking somehting else.

Shouldn't be hard i'll give it a whirl tonight if I have time and post results.
Maybe take a look at

Free version:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tombarrasso.android.wp7barfree
Just what a quick google search brought up
The problem with WP7 bar is it is just overlay and doesnt actually replace the stock status bar and it actually uses a bit of battery. This is the reason I want the stock status bar modified.

If I were you...I would flash MIUI, then d/l extended mod settings, flash it and you can swich the statusbar layout and it will be transparent....if your sold on having touchwiz i dont think it is going to happen for u. Everytime i tried i could never get it transparent. So im on miui....plenty of great themes too.
@Boobie Watcher
I don't like MIUI. I don't know what it is I end up doing but I always have terrible battery life and it just seems buggy.
I know.there has to.be a way to make it.transparent. just how lol.

But I'm personally a red-colored guy, and this orange theme is closest to red, so I think I might like this. I'm not nearly dedicated enough to make it myself, this should be pretty good though I'll report back after I flash it, probably tomorrow. Still at school now

Reverts are just useful, has nothing to do with disliking the theme.
This is a great theme. Very nice shade of orange.
-I really like the pull down notification bar: perfect tinting and crisply colored icons.
-The circle on the pulldown looks a little pixelated. I'm a big fan of CM7's "Basic Orange" pulldown with 3 crisp lines.
https://lh5.ggpht.com/Y20P9I2aLyRD_QXfFodFg1QJe9ofgScfpkkRN_-Ykxs7zT4OZ8nbgUlG-1uyZ9R1zw=h230
-There might be a little too much orange on the top status bar: I like orange icons, but the time and the date should just remain a light grey.
- The Wifi icon also has a pixelated look to it when it's not at full signal-- it makes it look a little cartoony, as if it's bold or something.
- menu button pop up on the main screen has a very nice crisp orange line along the top. This is really slick. I like it.
-Themed settings icons are very nice
-Orange 'g' on the google search bar looks a little goofy. I'd leave this unthemed. Although it's a moot point with the updated search bar...
-The one thing I really don't like is that the settings sections of many apps have buttons that are turned completely orange and this rarely looks good. Even the orange checkboxes look bad more often than good in this fashion. I recommend turning this off unless people really like it. A good orange theme can be nuanced.
This orange theme is one of the best considering it doesn't try to go nuts turning all the app icons orange.
Thanks for the feedback. This is helping me alot for the next release. It is ALOT better than the older versions and is way more discrete. I hope to have it out by sometime tomorrow.

Update fixed the overly orange boxes and checkboxes within apps.
However, there are two things I miss:
1. the crisp orange outline of the menu screen when on the homepage and pressing menu (using ADW or launcherpro).
2. Also the orange wifi and signal bars, bluetooth icon. The orange was good here but it just looked cartoony at some points but great when full bars. Can you add these back?
The new notification pulldown handle with orange rectangle is better than the pixelated circle, but what do you think about doing 3 crisp glowing lines like basic orange?
Or what about a glowing rectangle outline-- that might be pretty cool. Let me know what you think.

Hi there,
New to Themer, and liking the idea so far.
I have downloaded the theme Hills (screenshot attached). Love it because it's very simple.
To make it even more simple, I have removed the background, and am loving the idea of a simple lack screen with clean look.
I am hoping to be able to ask the developer to create another version similar to my other screenshot. It would be really handy to have unread email, text and calls, maybe in a neat box just like the time, or better still just a small black and white icon, that a number gets superimposed on, a bit like the stock samsung S2 can do.
Also, would love to have another three, customizable, icons on the seconds apps home screen. I like having an icon on homescreen to turn on a flashlight etc
If anyone can get me in touch with developer, or tell me how to modify this theme the way i'd like, that would be great.
Thanks in advance.
Steve

Found it
I don't know if there's anything out like this for Xposed (have searched for the past 10 minutes and have found nothing) and my requests to the ROM devs haven't panned out. I would like to have an Xposed module that will allow me to move the navigation buttons to the left or right side of the nav bar. It's been implemented in certain ROMs, so I know it's possible, but I don't know how to make modules, so I hope someone who has some experience could help.
Thanks!
I would like to second that request!
Also how about moving the clock and notifications to the bottom like it was on JB?
Getting this to work as an Xposed module has complications. It should be easy enough to achieve on stock-ish ROMs, but ROMs which have nav bar customisations is harder to achieve considering that there are quite a few ways different ROM approach nav bar customisations.
Thankfully there's Thunderkat, which I'm currently running. But it would be nice fore there to be something out there for the masses who choose a different ROM that it might be compatible with.
I was thinking having the bar on the right side while in landscape so the bar has not moved when changing orientation, like what occurs in mobile phones.
Having a nexus 7 I havent managed to stay on kitkat as I can't stand the mobile phone layout, using PA in tablet mode to have both bars combined, now tablet ui is removed in KK I'm trying to find a rom that has a practical layout for my thumb.
Tried thundercat and it has the option of having navi controls on either side which is great but I cant stop to think that the bar is wasting space as you only need an inch of it, while you have a notification pane that could be on the other side.
I will have to find a way to have the bar like on mobile devices.
I would like this as well. I miss my old Asus TF 'layout ' they had something similar with the notifications on the right side instead of above.
Someone on the Kindle fire was attempting to port TabletUI to KK, but I haven't checked in on development in a while.

I requested the same thing in the xposed request thread and got no love. maybe you should ask there, too. squeaky wheel gets the grease?
Throwing my hat into this request too... I hate the way Android handles tablet UI these days, I really miss having the navigation near my hand when on landscape, but would like to continue using stock android with xposed instead of flashing a ROM, is this viable via Xposed?

Thanks for the heads up! (Although its tabletkat). Installed and works with XGELS and GravityBox with no conflicts. Although it will nullify any tweaks to the navigation bar that you've done with GB.
