Difference between softkeys and notification bar. - Nook Color General

What is the difference between the back and menu buttons on the notification bar than those found in softkeys?

The notification bar sometimes disappears- especially with full screen apps.

Softkeys is for when the app uses the full screen and you don't have the notification bar to hit "back" on..

Swipe notification toggles for settings?

Anyone know of an app that will give me swipe functionality for the toggles on the notification bar? For example, swipe the wifi button to open the wifi settings?
Thanks!

(req) power button status bar mod cm10

Hi I was wondering if anyone could make a power button status bar mod similar to the one in dark bean jelly theme for cm10. All input is appreciated thanks

Not sure what you mean.
download notification toggle from the play store.....it's free!! I've been using it for two weeks since AOSP 4.2 is out, but not many rom devs are updating for our device. Since AOSP doesn't come with notification toggles I had to improvise....and this app is a pretty good alternative

Sounds like OP is referring to a button to turn off screen from the status bar when notifications are open. It's separate from the notification widgets and power toggles that have become common.

If you need a button to turn off the screen, notification toggles and power toggles are both good apps to consider. I use the latter. It also has a toggle to display shutdown menu and reboot options, i.e. reboot device or reboot to recovery (for root users only of course)

[Q] sense based rom full screen (no status bar)

Hi. Does anybody know how to make status bar hidden while on action launcher using Sentinel rom?

There is a Xposed module called app settings, which also have a full screen option per app
Thank you! Only downside is that when full screen mode is enabled, you can't access the quick settings or notification shade with shortcuts using pie. It will do until pie mode is made for my rom!

Don't know exactly what you mean or which pie app you use. But with LMT pie, you can set pie or swipe commands for quick settings or accessing the notificationbar as far as I know.
Yes this is true, but when the status bar is hidden by the xposed module, the settings and notification shade don't come down until I open an app that doesn't have the status bar hidden. If that makes sense? Haha

Tried it. The full screen app seems to force itself on top, so when you set a swip command for the statusbar it does come down, but because the full screen app forces itself on top it's behind the app. When you close the app it's there. That's some kind of funny

Notification bar toggles mod?

Just wanted to know if there is any mod for the notification bar to put quick toggles the way that Sammy phones have it. I hate having to click something to get to the toggles.

There's a good app called Power Toggles. Works pretty well.

What do you mean by "click something to get to the toggles?" Just swipe the notification shade down with two fingers to show the toggles. Tap a toggle to go into its settings or tap and hold to toggle the function.

There's no way to add new toggles to the noti. shade right? I'd kill for a flashlight switch there.

There is. It's called "Power Toggles" You can add many toggles (including flashlight) right below the date in the notification drawer. You don't even have to be rooted for this.

Yes, they are handy being right there. That's a Samsung mod, stock Android is not like that.

Go to playstore download an app called power toggles. Open the app and configure what toggles you want on notification bar. It will be the same as in samsung

Wow, I have always hated third party apps because usually they don't look nice or don't work well. I am impressed.

Have you Checked out Xposed Framework and Gravitybox?
It allows you to turn your quicksettings into toggles. The main reason why I used gravitybox was the torch & wifi AP toggle plus it was just update so you can rearrange the order.
This option might be better if you want to keep android looking stock. Also Xposed framework brings in all kinds of options you'd expect with custom roms.
I'm hoping we get these kind of toggles on the Moto X. This is my Gnex. I don't know why moto didn't add the option to add more toggles like the SIV and G2.

Sorry to bring back a fairly old post but I have been looking for an Xposed module to do Notification toggles. I thought Gravity Box did it but I cant find it. Am I overlooking it or did it lose that feature along the way?

Under status bar tweaks, quick settings management. Turn the option on and reboot. Come back to this if you want to customize.

I've customized them already. I want them as notification toggles not tiles on their own curtain. There is no setting I can find to turn off the rules and make them toggles on the notification curtain.

If you long press they act as toggles (that behavior can be changed as well). I know what you mean though. Maybe you can look at "Power Toggles" in the play store.

I really like Notification Toggles in Play. If rooted you can install as a system app and get true 1-touch state switching.

This. With gravity box..you just long press the tile and it toggles....no need to go into settings like when you just press the tiles quick.
Most...that I've tried anyway...apps that give you toggles on the notification screen, like Samsung, give you an icon in the status bar on the top left. And you can't get rid of it. Personally I can't stand that. Lol

Remove Notification Toggle icon from notification bar

Is there a way to remove those two wrench icons at the top without removing the actual toggles in my notifications menu? See attachments.

Sure! You appear to be using either "Notification Toggles" or "Power Toggles". Both have an option in settings to use a transparent icon, but if you do that, it shifts the other icons over so you have blank areas in your notification bar. I didn't like that myself, and instead opted to change it to a battery % icon instead (this is also available in settings).
You -might- be able to use one of the Xposed modules to hide it completely, but I haven't tried.
Dang you are awesome. That did the trick. Thank you!
Sent from my XT1058 using XDA Free mobile app
Power Toggles has an option to hide the icon but keep the toggles. However, this will cause the toggles to be 'low priority' and will usually be moved to the bottom when you get other notifications.
