Extended Controls on notification bar

Question for anyone using Extended Controls on the Atrix. I want to be able to place Extended Controls in my notification bar, but to also be able to eliminate having the widget on my Home screen. I find that if I remove the widget, it also no longer shows up when I bring the notification area down and tap on the EC. Anyone know how to do this, or is it necessary to have the widget on the Home screen, in which case, it seems like a waste of time to put it in the Notification Bar.
Thanks.
I'm not sure about EC, but if you use Widgetsoid you can add them to the notification bar and then set the widget that's on the homescreen to invisible, so that it's ONLY in the notification bar...I believe. There's a free widgetsoid, so you could always try that out!

I'll try it out. Thanks for the suggestion!
Another work around for not having buttons on the notification bar is if you use
swipePad + mySettings
just swipe on the corners to mySettings and change your settings through there. IMO best way.

Sounds like a novel approach. I'll try that too. Thanks!
Widgetsoid blows because..
if you click on a toggle it is not truly a toggle(in notification area) because it launches another toggle window and you cannot toggle directly from notification area

That's true. I guess it depends on the phone. I'm trying the Swipe Pad + My Settings suggestion and finding that I'm liking those apps a lot. The Swipe Pad seems to add a lot of additional functionality. Thanks.

That's true. If EC does it better while still hiding the home screen widget, then by all means use that! Just offering other ideas in case it doesn't.
May not be what you're looking for/more work than you want to do, but CM7 pre beta2 has notification bar controls built in with a bevy of other new features that make day to day use more convenient. I've been using it as my daily driver since pre beta 1 was posted and love it. Minus the few addressed issues that are being worked on now it's the best rom available IMHO.

multi-window on/off

Anyone know how I can add a shortcut or toggle for multi-window on/off? I would rather have that option because I tend to accidentally turn it on too often with the back button so I would like to disable that.
There's already a toggle in the pull-down notification bar I believe.
Not on Beans, it's gone. I would love to know if there's another toggle solution for this as well.

I'm on Beans ROM and it's not on his.

You can use Nova launcher to hide status and nav bar. Go to Nova settings > look and feel > and uncheck Show Notification bar. This will auto hide nav bar and status bar.
Have fun!!!!!

First you have to root the device the you install "dynamic navigation bar" (attached) then go to settings and disable system navbar. The DNB is a much better nav bar then thestock one.

Well the same thing happened to me. First off, don't factory reset! I don't know about you, but I don't have adb currently, but my computer is recognizing an unknown android device, which may mean I have driver issues. I ordered the fastboot cable which should be in tomorrow, and I can let you know if that helps me get adb. If it does I can save you 15 bucks and get you the cable somehow if you want.

hiding the softkeys

I searched for this but did not find anything..
Is there an app that hides the softkeys? I want the status bar to be visible but the softkeys should be hidden. (I am working with gestures )

Hiding the navigation bar?

I've found the option for the notification bar, but I can't seen to find a way to hide the navigation bar. The option for color for ht nav bar doesn't appear to do anything either.
Am I just totally missing how you hide the nav bar? I use pie so I really don't need the softkeys hanging out at the bottom.

Hi,
For now the navigation bar can't be hidden, but its color can be changed in the Advanced Settings menu. What device do you have? As changing it in the Advanced Settings menu should do the trick.

Looking in the advanced settings, I do not see anything about navigation bar.

Hi,
It's titled Notification Bar (in the advanced settings), which lets you change both the color of the navigation bar and notification bar. Sorry for the mix up.
