I have an idea for a notification system, there is a lot of room on my status bar and I envision a scrolling notification whenever an sms comes in. If there is already one, can someone send me a link?? If there isn't I can donate to the dev, not a lot though, imma student , but I think it would be a pretty sweet notification system!

Highlight it with the trackpad and it will scroll.
Ummmm...how do I highlight my status bar? The notification would scroll across the status bar when doing another task, right now it's a ticker and flashes the first couple lines of the message. I'm talking about scrolling the entire message!

I have been looking everywhere for a way to display the date (like when you pull it down) in the blank space when notifications are cleared

he's thinking about the dropdown notifications not the ticker bar at the top. i wonder if its limited to how much information it can show from an app
Since honeycomb came out, I have always liked the way the bottom bar worked. So now that ICS is open source, it should be possible to put that bar onto the GN.
Is anybody else interested in it or would it look good? Is there anyone working on it? I can't find anything in the development section.

Cyanogenmod included that in 7. So I imagine there's a good chance it'll be in 9.
Try booting 7 on a virtual machine to look for yourself.
That just moved the notification bar I thought? It worked the same for me, just that it was at the bottom.
I was hoping to have the pop up notifications and the settings etc., then the soft buttons in the left corner..

Just an update to this, it's kind of like what is in the maguro aokp build, where the long press on the settings button gives those options..
Can this be brought to the bottom of the screen like on a tablet? But not just moving the notification bar.. I mean actually having the action bar like on a tablet screen?

Hey all,
Just thought I might throw the idea out there, would it be possible to create a continuum style notification either in place or over the menu buttons at the bottom? That would be pretty interesting.

I'm not sure what this is, could you describe it?

its that small second display across the bottom. it shows news updates, text messages, RSS messages, facebook posts etc.
and im with you OP, this could be cool
Something that could be toggled easily (say a button opposite where the small menu button appears) that is always up. This way you have notifications/new messages and still retain easy access to your soft buttons.
It could display last X number of Facebook messages, or G+ posts from selected contacts, or twitter posts with certain tags.

This is an interesting idea. It would be redundant in normal use, but when notification bar is hidden (i.e. full screen browsing, games etc.) it would be cool to see notifications pop up on the nav bar.
I'm just not a huge fan of the notification bar, and with the new .zips to hide the bottom buttons it leaves room for this

Fun fact the second screen is actually part of the main screen

On the continuum?

Or perhaps turn the nav bar into a "dock' that you could slide and have a notification ticker as one of the things you could add to it

Another idea would be for the MIUI style pop up notification and have it appear over the nav buttons
One thing I definitely miss on SGS3 coming from SGS1 and SGS2 was the ability to change the brightness setting from from the top of the notification bar. You were able to slide your finger left to right and be able to change the screen brightness.
I found an app called Display brightness that can do something similar and thought I'd share as I am sure a few of you might also miss the old feature. You can set a screen brightness slider anywhere on the screen and change its transparency. It works a treat to be able to change brightness quickly and efficiently.
Here is the link on Google Play if you want to check it out

Gonna check it out, thanks
Holy crap that is awesome! Works on AT&T gs3. Thank you so much for pointing this out. Have to play with where I want it tho because it can interfere with the keyboard

Yeah its the best I've been able to find so far. Not sure why Sammy removed it from this phone but the app works. Finding a good spot to place it is key

Feel kinda dumb right now, I see the indicator but how do I actually change the brightness?
Edit: I guess the bar was too thin. Once I made it thicker I was able to adjust it. Thanks guys
International version just got an OTA update that includes a brightness slider in the notification pull down. As well as adjustments to the minimum brightness for auto brightness
just tried this, and it is pretty awesome!
If you set all the transparencies to 0%, it works exactly like the stock s2 slider...except you can put this on any side you want. The key is figuring out where exactly to slide your fingers to get it to work consistently, but once you do its pretty awesome.
AAAA+++ Sweet!
very nice find. Works perfect.

Glad a few of you are finding it useful ! I still wish Samsung didn't remove it and not sure why they did. Every now and then I hit the brightness line by accident so I might try and put it in a different area of the screen to see which is the best place. That's the only tricky part. It is a nice app though as an alternative.

Hopefully we get it in us versions of the international just got an update with the feature back on the notification, maybe they forgot about it
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
Oh nice I didn't know that. I had the international for a week until I sold to try the LTE and just know it wasn't there on either. Also on my sgs2 one of the newer firmwares removed it as well a figured it was intentional and too much trouble to add it. I hope you're right

Can anyone confirm if the OTA updates on some of the American carriers added the brightness slider in notification bar like the update did on i9300? Or did the update only remove universal search ?

there is actually already code in the tw_status_bar_extended.xml for this. it just isn't active. i noticed it when i was poking around there for my theme.
Just download notification toggles app free from the market it has a ton of options. Will solve the brightness toggle issue plus you can add short cuts to apps, reboot menu and a bunch more.

Awesome app! I almost hope that the brightness slider doesn't get added to the notifications window...there's already a lot up there.
It seems some on i9300 forums are not liking the brightness slider added in a release and some are requesting devs to remove from roms. I'll keep this app for now as I think its great

I dont believe its actually on the pulldown.. in previous tw versions you just slide across the status bar to the right to go up and down.. i may be wrong about the new brightness alider though.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
This is really great. It's really convenient to set all the transparency settings to "0%" and hiding the slider at the bottom of the homescreen - just slide above the home button to adjust the brightness!
Edit: It works on the lockscreen too - wow!
Having an issue with my phone Icon getting stuck on the status bar and in the notification draw. After I make a call it just stays there saying I'm on a call and when I click hangup from the notification
Draw it does nothing.
Anyone else had this or know how to fix it?

Sorted it. Disabled ongoing notification for phone seems to have fixed it
Sent from my D5503 using xda app-developers app
Happened the same to me, and the ongoing notif. disable didn't help it. Don't know if you have xposed, but the fault is with the Led Notification module! After uninstalling it, everything is fine for me.
