Hey there
The only custom ROM I have tried that has quick settings icons in the drawer is Team Venom's Viper. I have recently installed Android Revolution HD 15 and I am loving it, however it does not have the quick settings icons mentioned. I tried Googling and I stumbled upon several different applications for that purpose, but none of them work the way I want it to, including Extended Controls and Control Panel.
I am currently using the Extended Controls widget in one of the home screens and I have the Control Panel application installed, however when you open the drawer you still have to tap "Control Panel" and then you see the icons, not immediately. In the Viper ROM, when you opened the drawer you would see the icons and you can swipe left and right to reveal the other ones, and there was also a Quick Settings menu on the bottom which had them in a horizontal format, but I am guessing this one is developed by and only for Viper.
This is how I want it to appear:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Any ideas?
Thank you
EDIT: I'd also like to know if it is possible to get the AOSP lockscreen that was available to enable on Team Venom's Viper as well. Thanks!
no the mod is not out till now so your only way is to use apps like widgetsoid and stuff hope i helped and a thanks would be gr8
I had the same problem. None of the currently release JB roms ahve quick settings. Regarding the lockscreen you could always try lockscreen applications like 'widget locker' I know for a fact widget locker has the lockscreen you mentioned.
Well it's weird that Team Venom's Viper has it. I really miss that feature, it was probably the one I used most.
Yeah, I stumbled upon WidgetLocker and I got the Pro version after trying the normal one, it's really good, although you don't get several unlocking options like the real AOSP lockscreen, but then again I only used one of them which is unlock so it doesn't matter. Haha..
Thanks for your reply and help.
Try Widgetsoid app from Play
That is awesome. I did not know how to configure it at first but now that I have, it's amazing. Thank you so much, it does exactly what I want it to. If only it had a swipe left and right feature, but then again you can't always get 100% of what you want haha! I think the donate version has it, though, I might as well donate for it.

Hello GUIse & Girls
I don't know about you, but I love the AOSP launcher from Android 2.3, it's sleek, compact and does exactly what it says on the tin. The only thing I have to fault about it is the fact that you cannot customise the dock to put an app of your choice there. So, I downloaded Launcher2 today and had a look in the PNG's & XML's and I saw that you can infact reroute it to show the app of your choice. So, I am introducing to you Launcher2 with the SMS Shortcut instead of the Browser. Below is a screenshot as an example, download link is also below just flash as normal via CWM. If you want anymore shortcuts adding to the dock, let me know and I'll do it. If you want to add this into your ROM. PM Me to let me know. Also, thanks to ReddV1 for giving me permission to modify and give me some tips on doing this.
THIS ONLY WORKS ON AOSP ROM's or with the AOSP SMS Installed.

Simi Clock Widget. Free app on the Market.
Nice work mate... Always liked Launcher2 but with the same thought that I'd like to change that second app...
After trying out TW I might have to give this a go!
Hi I was just wondering which message app this is trying to launch?
Every time I click on the icon it says application is not installed on your phone.
Thanks.

The icon looks like it could be ChompSMS, but I just figured that was the image used...
I will install chomp and see thanks for the advice.
Notice that NitrozK has updated the OP to show that its the AOSP SMS app that this works with...
Anyone that wishes to use this should head over to this thread:[APPS] 16 Aug: Google Stock bits for Galaxy S II ROMs where Paul has posted the AOSP SMS app along with all the others...
Note - You'll need to ADB push the app...
Hello all,
I have been wondering whether what I am about to ask is even possible, but I really do hope that there is some kind of magic trick that will allow me to achieve it. I understand that it might sound foolish, but please hear me out, and any kind of help will be much appreciated.
So ever since I moved to the GSIII, I was immediately on AOKP 4.2.1, and obviously with JB 4.2.1 comes the whole newly redesigned statusbar, like the one below. Now I'm on 4.2.2, which is of course not much different than 4.2.1
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now, I am a little unhappy with this statusbar, especially with the seperate tab for the toggles. I am probably much too used to the old design, but I feel it was simpler and faster. I know you can access the toggle section with a 2 finger down swipe, but the problem is, I hide my statusbar so I can't perform that method. Another pet peeve I have is the lack of the weather notification on the statusbar, like that in AOKP 4.1.2, shown below.
Please, is there any possible way for me to have the old style 4.1.2 AOKP statusbar, without having to revert to 4.1.2? Again, this may be a very stupid question, since I know it is an app or a modification but a part of the system itself, but anything that I can will be great. Please help. Thank you!
I'm not a dev but I think you're hooped my friend. I was originally like you and hatred it but now I have come to... Peace with it. I swipe down for notifications and up (nova launcher gesture) for toggles menu. The weather thing is an app or maybe a future addition to your favorite rom. I'm not sure if I'd switch it now if I had the choice. Hmmm
Sent from my SGSIII on Bell running Task650's AOKP
You can set a swipe shortcut so that when you swipe on the right or left side of the status bar it brings down the toggles, and when you swipe down anywhere else you get notifications.
Not sure if that helps OP, but that may help IAN1331 from using a swipe up feature of NOVA
I use Nova Launcher Prime, and I have a gesture (swipe down from anywhere not just top) to open the notifications tray. There is an option to open notification OR the new options panel. That way when you swipe down, it opens the old style one.
I think the old notification bar was better. I am shocked by the lack of my beloved, simple, and fabulous old toggle. :crying:
Hi guys, I've been trying to figure out how to change the icon of the navbar for a few days now, still have no clue. It would be nice to have the Stock Android look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I see some theme on the market which have the navbar icons changed, so I assume that it is possible to some options (which I don't know about) in the Theme app to do that without rooting my M9, right?
Thanks in advance
Create a Theme here under Maker Pro
That allows you to change all icons and navbar stuff. I think it does anyway.

Yeah I tried it a few days ago, it does let you change icons of a lots of popular apps, but I don't see any option for the navbar whatsoever

You have to use the pro -themer on the page.
Then nav icons and the clock widget have their own steps in the process.
Now... if someone can tell me how to hack the google icons inn instead of the choices htc give me... (they have one that is similar to stock but square is home and two circles indicate the task switcher. (and there is an ugly line on the back key))
i still can't find it

So I am sure this has been asked many times, I just cant seem to find it, lol.
I hate the digital square clock thing on the lock screen and from what I can tell and read there is not an easy way to change this. Nice!!
I am rooted, any suggestions on how to change this to a normal digital or analog clock? I am not sure why would there not be an option for something as SIMPLE as this?
I hear this changed in Android 12, but in 13, its a new "feature"?
The only way to change it currently is to leg l leave some kind of notification as unminimized. I know in another thread in this section someone mentioned a particular app for creating a dummy notification you can leave displaying all the time. Having a notification that displays on the lockscreen makes the lockscreen small as in screenshot below.
Now if you don't let notifications display on your lockscreen, then there's nothing you can do about it for now (until / if someone finds a way).

Thanks, will look into that. Any idea WHY this would be restricted this way, lol?
I just use the built in screen saver and have it set to the digital clock. Down side is that the screen saver only works when the phone is charging/docked.
You can try AODNotify or
Tasker can help you change the size of Android 12's AOD clock
A new Tasker project allows you to choose between the small and large clock designs on Android 12's Always-On Display.

With A12 Google removed a lot of the customization options we once had, such as setting a specific icon layout in the status bar and choosing a font style. Samsung still retains these features.
In A12 the lock screen clock is new, while in A13 there is supposedly new options being developed that will allow you to change the display format. It may also arrive in A12L.
Your best bet is to install a 3rd party AOD app to customize your lock screen or wait for a custom ROM.
Hello
Since the update from a11 to a12 i must say that for me it was quite a step back in many ways. I can live with most of the things but i cant get over the quick settings. Its a huge deal breaker, i wonder is there any solution out there one could completely replace this crappy big tiles altogether ideally systemwise as those pesky apps like power shade actually dont work really well. Or is there any AOSP rom that would have? I guess no? So probably OOS would be only option?
I am searching far and wide and seems there isnt anything. But if anyone would know of something give us shout!
Many thanks
K.

the huge ones are on aosp roms
if i am not mistaking "anciet" has A11 tiles, or for A12Aosp you can try "project themer A12" on the store
... maybe also "aosp customizer" majsk module allows somethink like that, on rice it is also customizable in 2,3,4 columns per row
yes thats what i am talking about...going back to OOS if there wont be anything to fix AOSP roms
That's was one of the reasons I came back to 11. Couldn't stand 12 view and feeling.
