[Q] Search for flashlight widget - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi everyone. Is there any widget for using the led as a flashlight that does not appear as an application. Need something that is just a widget like the one in the Galaxy Note. Tried various apps on Play store like this https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwxLDEwNCwiY29tLmZsYXNoLmxpc2dodC53aWRnZXQiXQ..
and none of them are what i want. If this has already been asked somewhere please direct me. Thanks in advance

I'm pretty sure aokp uses torch just as a widget and no icon. I wish CM10 did that. Hmm I wonder if pull the aokp torch and replace the CM10 version if it would be a power notification widget only...

I am really sorry i should have specified further. I am using rooted 4.1.2 yakju, I need something like the one found in stock Samsung Galaxy Note or S3. I found one here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1934902 but it did not work. I don't want to start using a custom rom yet

I have tried the Tiny Flashlight, I need something that appears only in the widget tab in the app drawer, not a full application. Thanks for the suggestion though

Widgetsoid, it can have the toggles in the notification bar. I don't know why you are against having that kind of app showing in the app drawer..

Quick Settings / Quick Toggles

Hi all
Is there a quick toggle mod for the notification drop down menu like found on stock TouchWiz and Sense devices? Not looking for widgets on the "desktop"
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
You can try Widgetsoid in the Market. It will allow you to place themed toggles in the notification area without a widget. Just make sure you select "hide widgets".
That could work, however, I was looking more for a hard mod that could be flashed in there, like in past devices that I've used that didn't feature this by default (back in the Sense 2.1 days).
Like this? Its available on this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1383210

I haven't seen a separate mod. You can always ask the rom developer to make a flashable zip for you.

Yes, as long as the major toggles are all there (wifi, bt, gps, etc...) that is exactly it. Of course, on Touch Wiz, it's just one horizontal line of toggles (like the widget on the Nexus), and that is the cleanest. On sense 3.0, it's a vertical list of toggles.

I tried turning on the notification toggle in widgetsoid, it doesn't even show up for me.
Also, seeing how the music player can have different buttons in the same row, I don't see why it can't be possible for other apps to use this functionality too.
Edit: Widgetsoid works perfectly, almost exactly the same as the CM toggle bar (sans the side scrolling)
Someone should be able to make a new app for ics,
you can add buttons in the dropdown now so it should be possible with out a custom rom or even root
Is this what you are looking for?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037817
"With this app, you can place different toggles into your Android status/notification bar for quick access without having a dozen toggle-widgets on your homescreens
You can choose which toggles to display in the settings of the app. You can also choose to combine different toggles into one "all in one" notification.
Unfortunately, on most devices you can only define one action per notification, so on these it will show a small dialog with the available toggles when clicking on the "all in one" notification. But some devices (seems like all devices with HTC Sense ROM) can distinguish where in the notification you clicked and on these you don't have to see the dialog.
The app is for free in the Android market, would be nice to get some feedback"

Transparent navigation bar

Does anyone know if this is possible to do. I think it would give our nexus a better full screen effect.
Anything is possible but it supposedly killed performance on old versions
But I would also like to see this in the future
And also there are multiple threads explaining this bump

Yes it is possible... But you're going to have to do some decompiling and compiling and change the status bar back ground .PNG file and recompile the .apk....

well, you can't get transparent navigation bar in JB by changing the background only, but you have to do your changes in smali too
A black to transparent fade in both status and navbar would be sweet as hell.
Please make this happen <3
Just like in Atrix HD
Bump! lookin' forward to this mod
What does the atrix launch with? ICS or jb?
Bump! i'd love it!

ICS for sure. When JB was released, it was only available for the Galaxy nexus, nexus S and motorola XOOM, and the Atrix was out before that
What's with all the talk about status bars? The guy asked about the navigation bar (where the soft keys are)
Haven't seen anything about it. But I agree that it would be pretty sweet and I would be down.
I've read on another thread that someone managed to make the navbar transparent. Only problem was the glow from touch stayed after using the buttons...
Haven't read that thread in a while, think it died.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I have been thinking about this too since the day I got my Gnex..
I use a black background usually, but I think it'd be very very cool to get the navbar to be transparent. Even if the button glow had to be removed (when I run AOKP, I turn the button glow off anyway - I think it looks retarded how it gets cut off on the top and bottom on shorter nav bars).
Would definitely be interested in seeing something done here.
Couldnt we just get a cm build from them and copy the framework required?
I'd love a transparent volume indicator. I know its available but I want to have it on the stock Google ROM.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I would love that too
Awesome would be 80 or 100% transparebt Statusbar i think kind of easier. But i don't know either.. but i may be wrong

[REQ] 4.1's Lockscreen

Hi guys!
I am looking for the old original stock lock screen from 4.1 (like in the screenshot). For me is the new one terrible and I was wondering if someone can make a MOD or gave me a hint, how can I do it myself. Sadly I am a noob and I can only root my phone and flash some roms and mods. I am not looking for the Holo Locker or other app. Just want the poor old stock lock.
Can someone help me pls?
Thanks in advance!
I would love to see this as an option in future Custom Roms. Lockscreen widgets always seemed superfluous to me
You can use Widget Locker to set up your lock screen like that. I actually use Widget Locker to get a look similar to the 4.2 stock look on CM 10.1 since the CM one isn't quite the same as the stock one.
Sent from my Nexus 4
I opened a thread showing how you can put anything you like on your stock rom lockscreen using UCCW w/o requiring root or BL unlock; look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2081338&nocache=1 The only thing I haven't yet found how to do on stock rom is change the lockscreen wallpaper.

Beat me to it! I tried it on both my Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 a while back and it worked as expected. However, I disable my lock screen using Lockscreen Policy so to me it's a non-issue with the 4.2 lock screen.
You can try Holo Lockscreen app from the play store.

Have you not tried xylon ROM? Or a few others that have lockscreen targets? You can set it up just like that.

Yes, I've tried the most of the ROMs, but nothing works so gut Iike the stock one. Sadly I can not get, what I want, because the my rom is odexed too...
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I'd like to see the developers given an option in their ROMs for turning the lockscreen widgets on and off. I know for me right now my problem with them is if I try to check my notifications I find myself missing the drag point for the notification bar and then I end up expanding the widget. Very, very annoying.
Yes, a mod like this would be good. I especially hate how Poweramp shows up on lock screen on 4.2. Its like a small ugly box on lock screen. 4.1 lock screen had it perfect.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
You can use this if you want to disable lock screen widgets and camera...
It does not give you 4.1's lock screen but gets rid of your lock screen widgets...

Roaming is disabled and everything. Despite all of that, Rom is working fine and runs smooth.

Taking this for a ride and it's running pretty snappy.
I have a small question though, I noticed after installing all my aps that when the Maps ap was loaded it usually loads the Nav ap
This isn't the case here, And I was wondering is this just missing or do I have to use the maps to navigate to a location?
Thanks for the work
EDIT: NM Just read the NEW Maps contain the entry point and does away with the separate Nav icon shortcut
You can reach the Nav thru Maps
