Does anyone make a power menu mod that adds reboot, recovery, etc. to the powe menu? I've searched and seen mods for the Vibrant and Fascinate but not the Epic.
IIRC, someone did it with 2.1, but not 2.2. Probably because we don't have source, yet.
Try downloading Quick Boot from the market.
You can find it on 2.1. I have it in my theme and raiderep has it for the stock theme.
On 2.2 the bonsia rom has reboot. The gb theme has his set up that it will ad reboot to any rom. My theme will do this on the next update
Me and raiderep chose not to do the full power options on froyo cause its alot of work do to on a leaked build.

I have the stock 3.26.605.1 rom deodexed on my phone that I have been working on to make myself my own rom with rom kitchen. What I am wondering is, how do I go about getting the power control widgets in the pull down?? Does someone have or maybe make an update.zip or mm that will add these? I already have the 6 bar signal meter and circle battery with % with location removed and don't really want to lose them. No I don't know how to code so that isn't an option. Thanks for any help!
SkyRaider Sense 3.5
I recommend SkyRaider Sense 3.5 as a solution for getting the power widgets on the notification drop-down.
You can check out the Official Thread here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=764787
EDIT: Location icon is removed with SR; you can apply 6-bar and circle battery meters. See the OP in the above thread.
Yeah I was running skyraider 3.5. But I wanted something "my own". Thats why I want to be able to add the power widgets to the stock rom. Because I am playing with and learning the "kitchen". That way I have something for myself that is to my taste.
Wow!! I didnt think I was asking for the impossible here. I have read tons and tons of post and I know that the files where posted on here till that thread was closed down due to peoples behavior.
It is not that it is impossible, but there are many working parts. The drop down notification is in the Services.jar file. You need a framework apk that came from a ROM that had the notification drop down (for the added png files). The 6 bar signal and battery % is also in the services jar file. There are a few ROMS that have this combo. What color are you looking to theme?
Honestly I was hoping for just the stock look with power widgets. I work outside all day and the transparent drop downs are hard to see outside. Man I wish I was a little more tech savvy. I tried the framework from Nilsp (hope thats spelled right) business sense 3.1 but the notifications are kinda hard to see in the drop down. So i am back to stock framework.............. If there was a way to add it to Virtuous I would just his framework.
I posted a theme for Redemption in the themes section. I believe it will flash over Virtuous. Check out the screen shots and let me know if that is the look. I have a flashable zip that can give you that.
Yeah, I like that!! But is there anyway to do it without the transparent pull down? And I have big hands so I am not real fond of the 5 app wide app drawer.
I checked it out again and, I love the status bar theme, the pulldown widgets and scooby fonts!!!! I am just not a big fan of the transparent pulldown, 5 wide app drawer and rosie remaps.......... But at this point I willing to settle with I can get! LOL
So I downloaded your theme, deleted the rosie mod and clock mod. Flashed it and it works perfect on Stock deodexed 3.26.605.1 framework!! The market is force closing on me but I am fixing that as I am typing. Thank you so very much!!!!!!
Be wary that the initial port of the power widgets to the incredible contained a lot of EVO code to the point where you were pretty much running on the EVO framework (the framework-res.apk was code for code an EVO apk). ihtfp (and I a little) have been working on a port to un-modified Sense ROMs such as Virtuous. Once we do, you can be assured we'll distribute the files accordingly or make a how-to.
Oh thanks and good to know. This would probably explain why I always get boot loops when I try to put my framework into the mod lol

I used the files that lllboredlll put into his Incredible rom. Wasn't that ported specifically for the Incredible. I have not experienced any boot loops when using this on the Inc framework. I initially tried to utilize what was in Redemption (Evo hybrid) and THAT put me into a boot loop.
Just wanted to give a personal thanks to Spence341 for all his help and hard work!! And thanks to all the developers that made this mod possible. I wish I was half as good as they are with this stuff!
Great theme Spence341. I took your files and fonts and added them to my framework and ran it through the kitchen again so I have it all zipaligned and everything. Runs smooth as butter and looks very awesome! Even the wife wanted it on her phone!
Thanks again
All the credit goes to lllboredlll and JsChiSurf. They did the development... glad it worked for you. Love to see some screen shots when you are done.

Yes. It won't bootloop, but what they didn't tell you/refused to tell you is that they kanged the EVO stuff that jschisurf made for his *EVO* in the first place. They "ported" this by copy and pasting smalis, rather than the code itself. Thus making it an EVO framework. They just kanged the entire framework-res, didn't even copy files. If you look into the AndroidManifest, it has permissions for WiMAX.
So the mod you have in your theme thread, is it strictly Inc framework? What are the negatives to using it as it is is "kanged" (that's a term I haven't heard in a while). I was trying to achieve what I wanted with my limited ability.

It's pretty much about 99% Inc framework, ported *the right way* by ihtfp himself. It's just nice not to have EVO framework on your phone if you're not using an EVO, no? He also added a few more features, such as an updated look and not needing the txt file (that's not released yet though).
Screen shots
O.K. its been busy around here! Gotta love the holidays! So I finally got some screen shots taken. I think it turned out really well!
I love CM7. I use it on my tablet. However there is not a stable build for my Epic 4g, and I would not want to switch to it anyways, as I am running Bonsai 4.0 and really love it. Its nice having android tablet and phone, AND having different version on each. keeps things interesting.
HOWEVER- there is one thing i would love to have on both devices. that is the overscroll glow effect present in CM7 (where the edges of your screen glow when you drag too far past a menu). Is there any way someone could make something that could be flashed in cwm that would provide similar functionality as the one in CM7??? I have posted on AC forums, on CM7 official forums (on their website), and now on here. No response on the others... hoping maybe one of the devs on here can work your magic. It would be GREATLY appreciated!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but is that a feature of CM7 or gingerbread altogether? I think you might just have to wait until we get stable(er) cm7 or gingerbread.
Sorry!
i believe it is a part of cm7. i have 2.2.1 on my phone already with no such feature. I was hoping there would be a dev that would be willing to either port that feature FROM cm7, or code something like it. i can, and DO, do all my own theming, but when it comes to code i have zero skill.

I thought 2.2.1 was froyo? I believe that feature is a part of gingerbread

bahaa ya i forgot CM7 built on is the next version of android. haha. wow. ya it'd been a long day.
but does that mean there is no way to create such a feature on froyo?
I have the leaked Gingerbread ROM for my Incredible, which I decided to revert to after spending a day with the Kingdom Sense 3.0 ROM. I really loved the lockscreen though, and have seen the download link for the Evo and similar phones floating around, but I know it's the wrong screen size, and don't myself have the skills to fix it. Does anyone know if an appropriately sized Sense 3.0 Lockscreen APK for the Incredible exists, or if not, would someone be willing to make one? The Kingdom Alpha ROM is just too buggy. Maybe some day soon, but for now I just want something functional I can still enjoy
There is a apk. However it doesn't have the icons on the screen. Works well though.

I strongly suggest using gingersense remix (wdfowty I think). It is a gingersense port that includes a bunch of 3.0 features (mostly 2.1 sense) but actually runs on our phones. It includes a working 3.0 lockscreen-if you use the apk then it is the lockscreen only, no shortcuts-just the ring to unlock and no animations.
I can promise if you try this rom you will not be disappointed....
It won't run on the gingerbread leak due to the fact that it is sense 1.0 and not sense 2.1.
I just realized it was you joel that posted the last reply. I'm eagerly awaiting the release of your uber gingershift
My advise to you is look at the ones built off the leaked version for the incredible.
I am running mik miks gingersense beta and it seems to have stabilized enough to use until the official release and subsequent roms built off the final release are out.
Also I dont know if it is coincidence or if it helped but flashing the leaked gb radio is what i did right before everything seemed to stabilize...
Also I believe i was getting better signal on redemption 2.4 than i am on these gingerbread ones.
I moved to mik miks after i was having issues on Gingersense remixed b4 with random restarts and being unable to dial out. Though I now believe I was the cause for most of those issues on a mistake I made when I restored some apps from titanium backup. Make sure you only restore apps you have downloaded not system apps that should not be in the new rom.
For all of you ROM developers out there, here are feature requests for a ROM.
For starters, I just came from an HTC EVO 4G. I ran warmtwopointtwo for a while until development pretty much stopped. Then went to CyanogenMod 7. I then moved to EVO Deck, although that is based on CM7.
I personally think the stock ROM is pretty darn good. The phone is so fast it isn't laggy by any means.
I like the stock Dialer. PLEASE, do not use WyContacts. Just about every EVO 4G ROM used it. I'm not sure if that is the only non-Sense dialer out there or what, but I hated it.
Customiziable notification widgets would be great. CM7 had this I believe.
I loved the extra options in the Applications -> Development Menu such as "Stay awake" and "Stop via long-press".
I know everyone could banter all day about which launcher to use. I would like to see ADW Launcher built-in.
Kill the "Battery Fully Charged" Notification.
Add Reboot, Recovery, etc options to the Power Off Menu.
Put your ROM on the ROM Manager list!
Perhaps a lot of what I was describing are CM7 specific... and I'm sure we'll see it soon on this device.. but those are my thoughts!
I'd prefer a Sense ROM because I want tv out and Verizon mobile hotspot, and others I've tried don't have one or the other or neither. Maybe this is impossible. If so, anyone know a cool 3D ROM with both tv out and Verizon mobile hotspot. I've tried some awsome ROMs but they lack these things. Using Inc Ultimate, which is nice but a more dynamic experience would be nice.
I haven't used sense in a long time, but Athena by ihtfp69 was sense based so it had tv out. It also ran launcher2 so it had landscape homescreens. And it's hard to find a bug in anything by ihtfp. No 3d though
Edit: I'm not sure about Verizon hot spot, but beings it's sense based I'm sure it's possible.
Skyraider 4.3 by the same dev above. It is android 2.2 as well but full sense with a lot of features. I don't have a link though but it is way back on xda. I don't know if the recent stock based ROMs have landscape home screen. I know its not built into sense 1 by default.

Look for roms based off of the EVO Shift rom. MikG, Pure Speed, Optimized shift etc... hey all should have landscape if I remember correctly.
