[Q] 4g Widget without Sense - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to have a 4g toggle widget on a Non-Sense UI?

Couple things:
1) No, not until the AOSP Roms crack 4G.
2) It will give you error messages.
3) Why would you want one if 4G isn't working?

Yes, there's a 4G widget that turns 4g on an off with non-Sense launchers like Launcher Pro. It's little buggy (doesn't always turn off 4G), but it mostly works.
I got one with some custom rom; not sure if it's available in the Market.

There are also a number of other apps that can do it. Quick Settings is free and my personal favorite. I actually coded the 4G toggle myself and worked with the developer to add it. I love open source. SwitchPro and Extended Controls have it too, I believe.

Change Lockscreen Background

Ok, I have looked all over the place and can't figure out how to change the lockscreen on my Evo. I am currently using the Fresh 0.3 ROM with the Advanced Launcher.
To the first page travel you will....
You can't.

I can't believe that no one on this forum hasn't figured this one out. Did HTC really mess it up that bad?
What do you want to change?
On the Hero, you could have a different wallpaper on the home screen than what was on the lockscreen.
That is not possible on the Evo.
Install Lockbot.
with lockbot u can have a different lockscreen but it comes with issues
i havent tested with the alarm going off but i did notice these
no more media player controls on lockscreen
and no more slide to answer on incoming calls...

Different wallpaper for the lock screen?

Using the G2 and Cyanogenmod 7.0 RC I'm wondering if this is possible..
I want a different lockscreen wallpaper from what my main wallpaper is.
Don't know about CM7, there is no option for it but i could be wrong.
Only rom I know where you can have two different wallpaper is MiUI

True MiUI does have separate wallpapers, But i have tested and tried, WidgetLocker. It has a option to have alternate wallpaper. Its worth the money for just to coolness of having a Custom lockscreen. Try it out its like $3.00 in the market.

Pick up an 1800 mah battery? $20 and well worth it.
LockBot Pro. Look for it in Applanet none battery killer. Has more then one type of lock and deep customization of your favorite lock screen.

Widgetlocker was pretty great with all the features it has. But ultimately, the fact that it occasionaly displayed the normal lockscreen for half a second before it kicked in when turning the screen on, killed it for me.
Also it did drainmy battery a bit more than usual. Great idea, but needs more work.
Lockbot pro is well worth the couple bucks it costs my wife uses it on her vibrant you can use different wallpapers and like 6 different lock styles she seams to enjoy it.

I recommend trying Widget Locker, you can customize/add sliders, as well as a different lock screen Wallpaper. I've been using it for a few days now

I've had good luck with widget locker. But like stated before sometimes you see the orig lock screen and it kills it for ya

Launcher with 4 icons

Now I've looked long and hard on this one. Thoughout xda and any other site that is similar. But to no success. So I ask...
Where and/or how can I get a launcher that has just 4 icons in its dockbar?
The touchwiz one is slow and the homescreen is locked on the first screen "iPhone" style.
ADW launcher and its EX version have been updated to not allow the old "secondary AB settings" anymore.
Launcher pro cant do it period
And the open home launcher is too difficult and I cant pay for it. Used up this weeks app budget.
So I need a launcher that has 4 icons in its dockbar. The new MIUI.ADW launcher has it in its settings but I dont like the scaling and size of the app icons in the drawer and homescreens.
Any help please?
And I mean 4 icons as in similar to touchwiz. Three changable apps and one app drawer icon.
Well you could set up LauncherPro with only 4 shortcuts in the dock. Just leave one of the spaces blank.

Yeah but that makes it appear disorganised. I wan one that's spaced the way the toucwiz launcher is spaced. Go check out miui for adw launcher in the market. Some Guy managed to alter it to use only 4 icons in the dock. I would just use that one with a different theme, but the icons are blown up way too much.
Download launcher pro icons via the market you can change the appearance of you dock 100%.

So you can make the just 4 icons (including launcher) appear evenly amongst the entire dock? There will not be an open space where an icon should be?

I don't think so. I just tried LPI and didn't see any option of making it have what you want. I didn't play around with it too much though because I wanted to uninstall it within the 15 minutes so I didn't get charged for it.
I know what I suggested isn't what you are looking for it was just a thought. You might want to check out this themed version of LP though. It comes with icons in the first 3 dock spaces, then the 4th one blank and the app drawer on the far right. Doesn't look too bad actually.

It does look nice but its not quite what I'm looking for. Does anyone know a way to mod the Adw launcher to have 4 icons in the dock?
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.adw.launcher.miui&feature=search_result
I tried this launcher for a few minutes but I cant get the icons to scale properly with another theme. They all look blown up.
Why not just use ADW Ex with no Dock? This would put 4 Icons on the bottom row and you could make one the app drawer. I am not sure if free ADW has the option for no dock, but I know for sure the Ex version does. I think this way will give you the best most uniform look available.
Live home... but havent found it in the gb market

Why dont you flash miui, if your rooted obviously. It has 4 changeable dock icons that seem to be what your looking for. I personally like it, except it has no app drawer if thats a deal breaker for you. I dont mind it.

[Q] Sense 3 Notifications on AOSP?

Hi all,
I'm wondering if there is a way to get the pull-down notifications with the multi-tab available through the latest version of Sense on AOSP ROMs such as CM? i really like that portion of sense, just don't want to have all the extra sense bloat.
Any help would be most appreciated.
If you are talking about the quick access to settings then CM7 has it, its called power widgets (if i remember correctly). Turn that on in cyanogenmod settings and you can have it a better way than Sense 3.
If thats not what you are talking about. Then im lost.
Actually miui. Has a theme called slate sense which is very sense 3.0 and includes the notification bar with quick settings tab
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
CM7 has power widgets and is actually quite customizable. Although there is no separate page like the sense 3.0 notification bar, you can set the power widgets
as scrollable I believe and set as many as you wish. MIUI has a separate settings tab in their notification area by default.

[Q] Power widget in notifications area on rooted 2.2 ?

Hi
Is there any way ( app or something ) how to get power widget to notoficatins area instead of last used programs? i dont like using power widget on a home screen
Is this what your looking for?
[APP] Notification Toggle
nope this app is crap...i already tried it on lot of different phones and its no good. I used some custom rom for my G1 and it has another widget ( editable ) in the notifications area....but it looked like as a version of the original home screen widget
Frankly, if you've all ready rooted your phone. Why don't you upgrade to a Gingerbread ROM which gives you the power widget in the notification area for you?

This isn't a built-in Gingerbread feature. It's one of CM7's many great modifications.
no hes right...Gingerbread has a power widget, ehm a sort of, mixed up with the notifications area on 2 tabs, but its not customizable. i thought about switching to cm's but i really like the sense and all that HTC "crap"

Yeah that's what I meant. I guess I could have worded that a little clearer. How about a MIUI ROM instead? It's a bit like Sense in a way.
yeah, but its not a sense rom. Maybe im too demanding....
