Hi
I was wondering if there was any weather widget which would stay on notification area (a bit iOS like) ...Did manage find a few apps which did it, but all of them need to have the temperature icon on my status bar, which i dont like....
is there any way i could get the weather in notification without adding on the status bar icon.!
any tips please?
AOKP rom has a simple weather text in notification header.

Hi guys,
I was just playing around with themes and customizing my homescreens and what not. However, I was wondering if there was a way to display all the default information from the status bar (like wifi/3g/4g connectivity, sound profile, recent notifications) in an app shortcut because I would like to hide the status bar?
Thanks,

The key feature in CNA and other ROMs over stock for me is sound profiles. I'd love to have the current profile displayed in the status bar, a widget, notification drop down, etc.
Hey,
Does anybody knows if it's possible showing android's notification bar while using fullscreen mode?
I found this cool app called full!screen.
It allows you to use fullscreen mode and gives you 2 buttons on the bottom corners with adjustable size and transparency, one of them is HOME and the other is BACK, you can slide them and get more options like RECENT APPS or canceling the fullscreen mode...
The only thing that missing here is the notification bar, its a deal breaker for me and I really want to use this fullscreen feature.
If there are any ideas please feel free to shoot
Thanks

I've tested several things with stock and Nova, but no luck. I was surprised the nova action for expand notifications wouldn't work. This isn't with the app you mentioned, though, it is with AOSPA and JDX, both of which have full screen options built in. The custom ROMs that have this feature built in typically allow you to show the notification bar. You could combine a custom ROM that allows removal of nav keys without removing status bar, then use a launcher like Nova to hide the status bar on the home page.

Thanks it sounds like a great idea, I'll try it :good:
p.s. why hiding the status bar on the home page?
Not sure if this is what you want but Smart Statusbar let's you access the notification bar from full screen apps.
Edit: just downloaded full!screen to try it out and it doesn't seem to work with that app.
full screen and keeps status bar
pie navigator
make sure to set up 'pie' controls before setting full screen and rebooting, or you'll be stuck with no way to navigate

I only mentioned that because I wasn't sure if you wanted the status bar or just wanted access to the notifications. I prefer having the status bar so I can easily see the time, battery, notifications, etc., but many prefer to hide the status bar for aesthetic reasons. With Nova, you can hide the status bar but still swipe down to expand notifications.
Use PA. Then go to hybrid properties, and set the Navigation Bar to 0%. This would make the nav bar disappear and trigger pie but with the status bar still at the top

Finally I used "button savior" app and than removed the softkeys by editing BuildProp file using "BuildProp Editor" adding the line: "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1", Reboot and that does it, no softkeys. Thanks for the advice for removing the softkeys :good:
I also prefer the status bar on... when I hide the status bar (using nova) there's no option pulling it back
I'm running a rooted stock build of MG2 (4.1.2) on a Boost Mobile S3. For whatever reason, while stock has many nice notification shade toggles, turning on the camera flash as an on-demand light isn't one of them.
I've read that a future update is expected to bring customizable toggles, but who knows if/when that will happen, if ever.
How can I add a widget, such as TeslaLED, to the notification pull-down? What app would accomplish this? For whatever reason, I prefer to have it in my notification pull-down instead of my home screen. (Why TeslaLED, and not the built-in 'Assistive light' widget? Because TeslalED is a 1x1 widget, and Samsung's is a 2x1, and TeslaLED also has other options, such as timed, strobe, and morse code.)
Thanks!
My biggest gripe with Touchwiz is the massive amount of space the shortcuts in the notification bar take up. I have always been on Sense and when i get a notification, i could use my thumb to pull the bar down a half inch or so and see the notification, but on touchwiz, that giant stupid green bar of shortcuts takes up over a 3rd of the screen and just as annoying, the CLEAR button scrolls with the notifications. Aside from a custom ROM, is there a way to ditch the shortcuts/screen brightness slider from the notification pull down?
I wish we had the option to remove things from the actual status bar like AM/PM and the 4G icon when I'm on wifi. It bothers me that they don't just give us simple toggles to add/remove what we want.
