I would like some insight on how I would go about changing one of the button's on the pulldown bar. I wanna change the Bluetooth to a 3G toggle.
Me too, I wanna change 4g to brightness

Mystery or one of the other devs already explained that it is just too much work to modify it. Wait for Cyanogenmod if you want the feature badly.
Well,
Think it's better to bump this thread rather than writing a new one...
I'm looking for the same thing and many Samsung users seem to have the same questions. In my country I have no WiMAX, so I want to change the button so it toggles data completely.
If someone had at least a clue where this is configured, I would be glad to take a look into my rooted Epic and see if I can do it at least manually, would be the first step.
Really? Cause Maddoggin is working on it and apparently has it just about finished for his gingerbread mod. A lot of work? Maybe. Too much work? Guess that depends how much you want it.

It's suppose to be almost the same work as porting the puzzle lock.If anyone can we know Maddaggin will and could.
Well,
As far as I had checked the posts, I had no clue of someone doing it already. I see two parts that can be time consuming: finding what to change and getting proper icons so it looks seamless.
I will be checking out more often to see if there's a solution. I just don't need the 4G toggle at all, so it's much better if I can replace it with something else...

Is it possible to have the stock 2.3 lock screen minus the text? I would love to have just the slide lock/silence and my background, zip download would be fine, but I would love to learn how to do it myself.
Anyone? I would expect at least at a sarcastic comment but nothing at all?
The only way I know to modify the lock screen is with a application, such as WidgetLocker...They have a default option for a Sense lockscreen, but I've never tried it (I'm an AOSP man personally)
The uot kitchen might be able to do this. I personally know nothing about it, but I've heard people talk about the wonders it works. Google is your friend in this case, I think.

yes you can hide virtually anything
just takes some tinkering
This thread interests me also... I'm using Virtuous with the 3.0 lockscreen. Haven't figured out how to remove the "31000" on top of the time... I've tried modifing it with root explorer and going into spn-conf.xml file but haven't been able to edit it. Also tried Carrier Name all it changes the file but not the screen.... Any sugg??

This seems to be on the right track for what I'm looking for... Im going to mess around with it. Thanks!
I know CCName can change your carrier text and, therefore, you can make it blank. I don't know how to change the other ones though. Does Sense use a Clocktopia font? If so, you could probably make a "blank" font.
I have the latest build of Strongsteve's odexed blue which is a wonderful ROM. I am very happy with it and the continuous developer improvements are as awesome as the ROM itself. But.....I am missing something and for the life of me I can't figure this out. Maybe someone out there has seen this before and could offer some advice.
I don't have the 5 dock icon on my homepage. All I can get is 4 dock icons. Is there some trick to generate that 5th dock spot?
Secondly, how do I get the tethering to work. Do I need another app to unlock this feature?
Thanks for any insight you might be able to provide on these two issues

While in the app drawer, hit menu softkey then edit and drag an icon into the dock and you are good. As far as tethering, you use the Sprint Hotspot app. You wont get charged for it

So I have been searching around and have not seen anyone put WiFi tether/hotspot in the quick panel of our t989 roms and was wondering if it could be done?
It seems like a lot of the devs are putting this great mod in their roms, but none have a hotspot toggle. I have searched over on lidroid post on adding them to the system with little luck http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1289896&highlight=tether&page=46 and I use the quick-panel settings app on my device, but like I said no luck.
I am comfortable flashing and installing push/pull with adb can run logcats and don't mind testing anything so I would be happy to be a guinea pig for someone, I just dont have the faintest idea on actually coding anything.
Or maybe I just cant search very well. If anyone has any ideas. let me know. Thanks

U mean lidroid, right?
I was thinkin bout this 2 but didn't think it'd b much use considering u can get extended controls n put a toggle on ur home.. lemme take a look at it ina lil bit probly can't do much but worth a shot
Yeah it lindroid. The link to his i9100 info is in the op.
Thanks that would be awesome. I use a toggle I found on the market and it definately works but if I can clean up my screens some it would be gr8

and this idea struck me out of the blue
Why can't android have a easy click on wifi icon bring up local networks function like most desktops
Positive.or negitive comments welcome
If you think its possible let me know ill try my hardest to get it to work
Think of it like the status bar quicksettings in Stef of power on off make it so it turns on or off a list of avilible networks listed in the notifications click one get rather a prompt for a password or connect to open network
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
for phones if you can view it in quicksettings thats would be awesome, im about to add that a rom ive been working on, and ill see if i can figure out how to incorporate it. but for 3.x/4.x android tablets, its pretty much useless since its already available in the bottom right corner.
I must agree, as a quick setting switch this would be freaking amazing. However, you can add a shortcut to any screen that goes straight to wireless settings.... I'm sure prolly every dev, which i am not nor prolly ever will be, already know this, maybe it'll help a non-dev.
maybe you can create a poll, and if we get enough people to see it, maybe an experienced dev will make it. im just starting making my own roms, so I cant do it myself (yet).
If Simone wants to start a pole go right a head.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
like when you click on the wireless network icon in taskbar and brings up the list of networks?
I would think that's awesome especially as a quick setting but my first concern would that not drain the battery, if wifi is on it'll continually scan but having the graphics change often I think that would drain the battery. To me it would be more of a tactical eyecandy.
Sounds cool, I like it
Hey guys,
I'm looking for a way to get the cm-10 nav bar without having to root.
I've tried just about every launcher out there and none of them have that
Option. On my SG2 I run liquid smooth ROM and its in there and basically
Let's me program it any config option of the nav bar. I want this on my note2 but
Without having to root as I need to keep WiFi calling and other reasons.
Anyone have ideas how to get this working .
Thx

Wow.
1) root does not effect wifi calling
2) no way to get nav bar without root.
3) all those nav bar options are built in the rom, no rom has that here. Best you can do is add a line to your build.prop and get tbe regular nav bar like on stock nexus devices

Wow what?
Its not like we have kernal for CM-10 so there's no reason for me to root. If im going to root then its going to be for cm-10. All the other Roms look fine but dont offer enough for me root and flash even with most of them based off of tmobiles kernal. I just cant stand tw and None of the stock rooted roms have the nav bar. Been on cm since 6 days, one gets use to that after awhile.
I was just hoping there was a hack on a launcher that I might have missed. Nothing that deserves a "wow" from you.

Lol you do realize you can root with out flashing a ROM right? Like already stated you can root and add a line to your build prop to enable the stock nav bar, that's about as good as it gets right now.
Sigh,, yes I'm fully aware that
1) I can root and stay stock
2) I will keep my wifi calling if going this route
This wasnt what I asked. All I wanted to know was if there was a launcher out there that i missed that enabled the abilty to have the nav bar without having to root. Man I don't think I could have worded it any better. I just have no need to root until we have cm-10. Even the hack I posted in the other thread doesnt really give the option to customize the bar like I can with liquid. So unless a dev comes up with a way to do this before we have cm10 there's not much else to say
Since its not in a launcher.

Wait, let me understand you correctly. You want a feature that you had to use a rom to get before, but you dont want to root? Did you load a rom without rooting on your older phone? And wow... hows coming off like a jerk working out for you?

...I'm not exactly following either, but anyway can I get that navbar you were using before? Is it an app? or zip I can flash in recovery? I just bought my note 2 yesterday but am really missing my onscreen navbar from my Galaxy Nexus.
Look all i asked for was if there was a launcher that had this ability that I may have missed. Pretty simple right? instead I get a "smart ass wow" etc about rooting etc and wifi calling. It wasnt what I asked and I tried to make it even more clear that until we get a kernal with cm10 that for me its not worth rooting cause none of the current roms have the nav bar.
I already know how to root, I know what roms support wifi calling etc, and I know that just rooting my note2 isnt going to kill my wifi calling. None of This was what I was asking. And I didnt need a smart ass wow comment on such a simple question. New launcher updates come out all the time so I reached out to my fellow xda'ers to see if there was such a option that I missed. Instead I get talked down to like a little boy and that is most differently not going to fly.
Maybe if you were on my end of the sleeve you would understand.
I'm No dev thats for sure, its not my skill set but I have been flashing since the G1 and HD2 days. I help out the devs via giving them a free place to host their roms that are high traffic or a guy thats just starting out for free. Then donate fare amounts to the ones of the roms I use. This is the way I help out here because those are the resources I have at hand.
If I came into your thread that you asked a simple question and was like "Wow your a moron" you would get alittle left of center as well.

Ok ill break it down for you. The reason I said wow is your original post sounded like you were wanting everything, did no research, and wanted to have others give you what you wanted on a silver platter. You asked about not rooting due to "keep wifi calling and other" reasons. Basically you sounded like a noob who expects devs to do the impossible/incredibly difficulty (in this case launcher devs) while it is certanly possible to do similar to what you want (think button savior) it is not something that would work well without root due to android permissions for certain button actions. If you would tell us why you are afraid of rooting that might help us help you also, since you now claim its not because of wifi calling.
So for onscreen buttons check out button savior, not exactly what you want but it is onscreen buttons.

Lol at this thread. I dont know if you figured it out yet, but here's the skinny. Nav bar, or softkeys is an android os feature, not a launcher feature. As far as I know, there isn't a way to install cm10 without root (at least, it doesnt install without root). P.S. We may never see an official cm10 kernal for Note 2 beause the cm team says that the Note 2 sources are crap and that they are being properly supported, it would take them too long to sift through it all. Now there is a way to enable the softkeys on the original rom, but it requires root, and the softkeys suck compared to cm10's nav bar. I'm currently runng PAndroid (a cm10 based rom) with nav bar and hardware keys disabled. I hope that helps.
And casperi, it sounds like we both got into this scene at the same time. I started off with my G1 when it first came out, then moved on to the HD2 years later. The difference is that I searched for that question before opening a new thread. And not only in T-mo Note 2 forums, but AT&T and across google as well. There are now a few different threads for what you are looking for.
Reiterating what others have said, unless it's an "artificial" navbar that the launcher or an app creates, it won't work without root.
If/when you decide to root, that line of code you add to your build.prop is:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
I've added it to my TW rom (jedix8), cuz it's convenient on this big phone to have access to a back button on both sides.
