I know there are plenty of widgets but id like an actual app that I can group under a menu that will just allow me to hit it to turn on my Jellybean tethering..
does anyone like this exist?
You can make a settings shortcut widget (from the widgets area of the app drawer) that's a one-click into the "tethering & hotspot" area of Settings. Then you can check the box for which tethering type you want.

☆☆ (MOD/HOW TO) Make the "FLASHLIGHT LED" as another Alert/notification......
Ok for ANYONE wanting to make the LED on the FLASHLIGHT light up as a notification.
ALSO this is my first try at making a thread on "HOW TO" so bare with me please...
**First preferably (root) I think makes the phone run smoother but NOT required**
Now you need 2 apps. Flashlight Alerts and FLNotifier.
FLASHLIGHT Alerts-- is also paid or FREE! from the Market
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDEsImNvbS5ycnNsbGMuZmxhc2hsaWdodEFsZXJ0cyJd
FLNotifier -- is also either paid or FREE from the Market
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwxLDEsImp1ZzZlcm5hdXQudXRsLmZsbm90aWZpZXIiXQ..
Next install them both!
Now to get FLNotifier to work fully you'll need to "ENABLE" the (ACCESSIBILITY) option/feature on the phone.
Settings>Accessibility> Enable/Check Accessibility> Enable/Check FLNotifier and Flashlight Alerts.
Now go to the Flashlight Alerts app in your app drawer and once the app opens, enable/check "Incoming calls" and "New text messages" or which ever you want to flash.
Flashlight Alerts will NOT continue to notify you if you missed the call or txt after a certain time... That's were FLNotifier comes into play.
Now for FLNotifier you MUST have Accessibility ENABLED. Go to the app in your app drawer and once the app opens, you can enable/check which app you want to have the Flash light up to. To get mine to work with just alerts and messaging I clicked the "Show System Apps" at the bottom left and scrolled through till i found "Alert Recipients" and "Messaging" and Enabled/Checked just those 2.
Finally you can click the "Defaults" tab at the top right and mess with the options of flash ratings and repeat notification flash for how many times and repeat intervals ETC...
If you have any questions you can pm me or email me.

Hope you all enjoy!
~btw im running Calkulins E4GT ROM v2.9.2 with EL29 Kernel and EL29 Baseband and Modded PRL for roaming on verizons network in bad Sprint areas.
Should have posted this in Themes/apps or at least in General for more views but thanks mang I'll check it out.
always when i open up viper or the eizo louder app on my nexus the privacy guard active thing will pop out on my status bar its very annoying how do i remove it?? on a carbon 4.3.1 rom.. if android 4.3 is ok no have this problem
I'm not sure if you're looking to remove just the notification or to undo the privacy guard setting for that particular app.
You might hit up http://www.xda-developers.com/android/app-ops-brings-granular-permissions-control-to-android-4-3/ for more information about the App Ops section rolled out in Android 4.3
Basically, to access the hidden feature, you have to create a shortcut to it. Then you can get in there and change the privacy guard settings for each app (location, personal, messaging, device). Each of those privacy groups has a number of individual settings.
Can anyone please tell me if they have figured out a way to create a homescreen shortcut to open bluetooth settings on a TW rom on a Note 2?
Perhaps I am missing something obvious, but nothing I have tried has worked. I can create a shortcut for every other setting that works, but the one for bluetooth always says "app isn't installed." I have tried many bluetooth settings apps and widgets in the playstore, but none of them have worked - they all state "<appname> has stopped" when invoked.
TIA for any help.
I have different tiles on my pull down notification shade. If I long press on a tile the settings menu opens.
I did not know that you could long press the icons to get the settings. Thanks!
Hi All,
Just got my G3 for 3 weeks and it's quite decent. However, I would like to ask if there is any method to let the browser floating on current app instead of switching to it.
The current scenario is that when I tap on a link in any app other than browser, it will switch to browser or pop up dual-window (if the app supports dual window), but I hope it can pop a floating browser. I know that I can do it manually from pull-down menu and select browser on the quickslide navigation bar but in this way I'll have to enter the address by myself.
Thanks
Hi there!
I don't know how they are called in the english original, but on my P6P I really miss the little dots e.g. on the Mail App when there are new messages.
In my options it has this option and it is on, but there aren't any of these dots. I really miss them, cause so you always have to pull down to see where there's something new when you are already using your phone.
Anyone a conclusion for me?
In the GMail app? I can't picture the dots.
That's called "Notification dot on app icon" and can be found in System Settings --> Notifications, down near the bottom.
It can also be turned on and off on a per-application basis by going into the application specific notification settings at System Settings --> Notifications --> App settings --> {whatever}, and switching on/off the option to "Allow notification dot" at the bottom.
But personally, I dislike this "feature". If the application notifies you, then why not click it instead of running around through your menus trying to find the one with the dot?
Thank you for the right name of what I'm looking for
But no I don't run around looking for these dots, I just open the phone and mostly there are WhatsApp or Mail news and I always have to look inside to see if there's anything new when I don't want to swipe down for my notifications.
The Settings are all set, but there are no dots for me!
Don't know if this matters, but I use the Nova Launcher.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You need to allow notification access in Nova for the dots or badges to appear. Go into Nova settings > Notification Badges and then tap the message at the bottom of your screen to enable read access to notifications.
You can also check if notifications have been disabled by going into System Settings > Notifications > Device and App Notifications and checking if Nova is enabled or disabled.
The hint with the settings brought me to the solution I think. It seems you need Nova Launcher Prime for the dots
