Notification area mod - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I was using the Synergy rom for EVO and loved the notification area mod.
Towards the top, it had a scrollable list of your recent programs and on the bottom it had a toggle for going between the notification screen and quick setting buttons for the radios.
The E4GT has the quick setting buttons on the top of the notification area, but no app selector and I prefer it to long pressing home. Is there anything like that for the E4GT?

I don't think that is because of the Synergy rom but its part of HTC sense...and no there isn't anything like that for Samsung.

(Request] more recent Apps, customizable power widgets

(Request)
2 things I would love to see and have really been missing in this phone so far
1. Ability to see more than 6 recent Apps when holding the home button, like 9 or 12
2. Customizable power widgets in the notification bar, I would love to be able to add brightness on there and toggle sound from vibe, to silent, to sound. Instead of just vibe to sound
Thanks
I agree. However, in regards to brightness you know you can adjust brightness "on the fly". Just turn off auto on your display/brightness. Then put your finger on the notification bar and side left or right to increase/ decrease. Much better than the button, IMHO.
.....
Yeah a customizable power widget on the notification bat would be sweet.

Do any roms have customizable power widgets yet? This is the feature I want more than anything else.

New interface idea: merge notification and nav bars

Android was the pioneer of the notification bar. The idea, very similar to the taskbar in windows, offers far more flexibility and utility. One factor common with Windows, though, is that it disappears during games and certain other apps. Now, in terms of notifications, this feature is not that useful because you still have to navigate out of the game to see your notification. There are several utilities to bypass this though: for me, BirdBar coupled with Notifier Pro works perfectly and brings the seamlessness of a multitasking beast. BUT, the notification bar is NOT available by default.
This problem is further highlighted by the fact that now you can place all sorts of shortcuts on the notification bar, the prime purpose of that being that you are able to switch apps and tweak your phone on the fly. Again, all that disappears when the notification bar disappears.
With Android 4.0, an interface element was introduced that stays on screen ALL the time, even during full screen games. That's right, the nav bar.
So here's my idea: take the notification bar, bring it downward and attach it to the nav bar. During a game, the notification bar can disappear but a shortcut to it can live in the nav bar (on the far right perhaps). ALternatively, the notification bar can slide upward with a swipe action starting from the bottom of the screen.
The 'hybird bar' thus created can expand dynamically whenever a notification is received.
Any takers?
Like have menu on one side and notifications on the other... I like it.
sent from my googletron
what about having the muiltitask bar also in the notifications pulldown that way we can have a menu button again.
God I miss the menu button lol
Great idea my friend tell one of the devs if they can help you out with that.

There are several apps (widgetsoid one of them) that can place shortcuts in the notification bar. Also, the placing of menu button is possible even now through mods.
Getting in touch with devs was the prime idea behind starting this thread. If possible, I would like to pitch this to renowned devs and Google Android team itself. Question is: How.

No Navigation Bar Mod idea

What if, when you didn't pay attention to the Navigation Bar at the bottom it SMOOTHLY flew down the bottom of the screen. And when you wanted to use it, you just swiped up and it responded right away!?
Wouldn't that be awesome? I don't know if it's possible to do or if Google would have to implement it. If you can do it let me know when you make it!
That's what I have set up on my MoPho, using Apex launcher. I've hidden both the dock and notification bar. When I need them, I swipe up for my app drawer and swipe down for my notifications. I press home softbutton to toggle my status bar, and also set double-tap anywhere on screen for my GoSMS to launch.
I like the clean look

Swiping up with one finger might not be a good idea. Say for example you're in the settings menu and you swipe down, either the phone will open up the notification bar or scroll down.. or both. Swiping up and swiping down with 2 fingers would be great!
Mybad, just realized that I was still in the Nexus section and not the Photon lol, time for bed :7
In some ROMS out there you already have the ability to hide the nav bar - and use these controls from the advanced power menu instead. Same option, different solution.

Why Do All Of The First Letters Of Your Words Start With Caps?
Does it really matter what ROM you're using? I downloaded 'Power Controls' by Painless Death off of Snappz. Works for me. They all do the same thing.
I used to mostly use the built-in CM power widget when I was on CM7, then when I went to CM9/10, those kinda lost the customizability they had in CM7. Then I realized that you can just stick tons of power widget options in the notification bar, which I LOVE now, since I can access every power option I want from wherever (not needing to go back to the homescreen). I used to think that only 4 buttons could fit in there, but I recently found out that it will fit 6 buttons at a time, and if you put more than 6 buttons in the notification bar power widget, then it becomes side-to-side scrollable, which is awesome. This also has the added benefit of not needing to download external apps to just have a power widget. I'm sure some of those have advanced capabilities than I'm unaware of, but the notification drawer options are pretty all-encompassing.
The set of options I've got in the notification drawer (in order) is:
-Sound
-Brightness
-Wifi toggle
-GPS toggle
-Bluetooth toggle
-LED flashlight toggle
-Orientation toggle
Hope that gives you some ideas!

notification bar pull down

is there anyway of modding the notification bar so it pulls down all the way with just one finger. or a mod that will let me line up all the shortcuts to stuff like turning mobile data on/off horizontally across the top?
