Lockscreen toggle Android 4.4.2 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
Do you guys know of any (notification) toggle to quickly disable/enable lockscreen? In the notification panel Android unfortunately doesn't seem to have such a toggle build in. With the previous build, Jelly Bean, some widgets from the Play Store seemed to work, but not anymore with Android 4.4.2.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks for your reply! In the description on Play Store, it says that for the lockscreen toggle to work, it requires a separate (pay) app. Does this seem to be the case?
Do you/does someone know any other alternatives?

No other app needed for the lockscreen toggle - I use it on a stock Kitkat Moto G.

Unfortunately the app you are suggesting, does not work on my phone. A message in the notification bar says the lockscreen is disabled, but it's not.

Anybody else know of any solution? I can't believe there is no one else in need for a lockscreen toggle that works with KitKat.

[Q] Pulldown Toggles

Anyone working on this yet?
[[bump]]
Really - these handy pull down toggles (on/off's for wifi, bluetooth etc) have been on every ver of Android since 2.0. Until now - who's brilliant idea was it to remove these?

Toggles in the notification bar have only ever been an OEM add-on, they are not part of stock Android/AOSP.
That said, it's definitely one of the most obvious missing features vs. the RAZR's contemporaries from HTC and Samsung.
My wife's new Pantech Breakout has some nice notification toggles stock! I'd love for something like that for my Razr!

yea, I miss those too. hopefully ICS has something like that in it whenever that comes out.
Available in the Market as always for example via Widgetsoid.
How many times will I have to say that for people to understan, unbelievable.

Well it doesn't work very well maybe that's why...It doesn't work with either of my Motorola phones w/o the popup - and the popup defeats the purpose imo.
Perhaps it works better on other devices idk...
Additionally, a lot of the toggles don't even work...it looks real nice and seems to be very configurable but just doesn't work for me.
Add the Toggleower Contorl widget to have some toggles.
Notification Toggle is working on my RAZR with a few minor glitches and enables customized pull-down toggles. This is a great workaround until ICS.

Try MySettings, works like a charm
Shady's rom has toggles and Im now working on them for my rom also
Widgetsoid seems like a great app with a lot of potential and nice customization features, but on the Razr you can't toggle directly from the notification bar with it. Instead clicking on the toggle icon will popup another window to toggle the setting on or off. That and I haven't been able to change the colors of the toggles in the dropdown so that it's readable.
Notification toggle is the closest I've found. Each toggle takes up a line but you can actually turn the item on or off straight from the dropdown.

Click the Widgetsoid icon, at the bottom of the screen press the notification icon then tick the Use custom style box. Scroll down and you can change the colours

I'm on kitkat on the moto g. For editing the notification icon, you only have to overwrite the stat_notify_sms.png from the messaging app?

how can I use HALO and Floating Notification without it popups in the statusbar?

how can I do that? When it comes on the statusbar it looks terrible. I don't like that. I want it where yo can switch it like in these videos by pressing the icon.
SGS3 GT 19300 - KitKat 4.4.4

can you describe what exactly is terrible? maybe with a screenshot?
and well halo is dead, I think there is no current ROM anymore which supports it and it was replaced by hover (if that is what you meant)
I mean this notification lists in my statusbar. That the quickstart option available in the statusbar that is what I mean.
what is hover? and how can I activate btw where can I download it?

[Searching App] Quick Launcher for Notification- / Statusbar

Hi guys,
I am looking for a quick launcher in the statusbar. It should just display 6 shortcuts for easy access in any app. I found these two apps which would be fine:
TUFFS
Notification Shortcuts
The problem is, that they dont stay on the very top of my notifications and this kind of makes them useless to me. Does anyone have an idea how to enable this? Or are there other apps which are better?
Thanks for yor help!
EDIT: SOLVED it myself. In Nougat you can longpress the notification --> more settings --> toogle importance -->set importance to the highest value.
