Long press toggles - Sony Xperia ZL

Hi, I just got my XZL and I am missing a feature that I got used to: on almost every other device, I can long press the status bar toggles to get to the corresponding settings. Can this be activated for the XZL? Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately no...
Sony Xperia ZL C6503, rooted, 4.2.2 Stock

I'm not sure, but perhaps Power Toggles supports this, if you really want it.

There is this MOD:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1771181
THIS IS FOR S3******** so I am not sure if it would work for our phones...

I have this on existenz Rom, maybe you can extract it from there?

[Mod]Enable on-screen buttons like Nexus..

Based on this thread i make a zip for our I9300.
Ι do not know if anyone use it. (I don't)
I did it just to see if is working or not and i share with you.
Tested on WanamLite ICS XXBLFB V1.5
Backup your system/framework/framework-res.apk before flash.
If anything goes wrong just replace the framework-res.apk from my zip with your framework-res.apk.
I'm not responsable if any boot-Loop caused by this or anything.
Thank's.

I had a bootloop on Omega 8.1 ROM after install that mod. Just restored original framework-res.apk...
Will this work with stock touchwiz?
this works for me on stock rom
bt then im usin nova launcher
Could you put any image to see how is it?
This sounds tempting and the only way to use a bluetooth mouse properly as without having a virtual back button I found myself tapping back button tons of times.

Doesn't work, tried twice and always got stuck on boot.
It would be awesome if you could make this for CM9 since they wont add this feature. Could port it from AOKP

Can you open the camera app and see if it adjusts to the changed screen size after enabling the buttons? Mine doesn't, which makes the camera unusable with soft buttons enabled.
Doesn't work on checkrom 3.5

The camera is the only reason why I return to stock ROMs. Otherwise, CM9 is better in all other aspects. Then again, stock Camera doesn't work with soft keys and I hate the physical home button. Tough choice..

Wow, this feature was out of the box for HTC phones on the headset. I am really surprised that the walkman app doesn't cater for this.

Deactivating status bar toggles

I don't have the Xperia zl right now but am planning to get one if it gets released in Germany but maybe some of the owners can help me out with my question.
I saw that the Xperia z and zl have toggles in the status bar. Can they be deactivated in settings? If not, Is it possible to edit the systemUI.apk or maybe another file in the system to remove them?

They cant be took away by a simple setting, But May be able to be removed via messing with the SystemUI. Not sure why you would not want them though.

I want them removed because I don't like their style and rather use widgetsoid for status bar toggles, but having both looks ugly so I would like to remove the stock status bar toggles.
Maybe someone can give me a tip which file to mess with to remove them.
AW: Deactivating status bar toggles
Can you add/delete some of the toggles? Which are available?

Another question I got while reading through the XZ forum: As both, XZ and XZL, are the same regarding OS and hardware it should be possible to use Mods on the ZL designed for the Z? I think custom roms is another field as there should be differences with for example the baseband but mods should work or am I completely wrong?
Any update on this? Could someone make a guide on how to remove the toggles?
Now that we're at modifying the SystemUI I have another question related to this topic. Is it enough to rename an icon (for example the one used for stamina mode) to remove it from being shown in the notification bar? As I read through some topics and looked at screenshots there are some icons I would like to remove from displaying when I get my Xperia ZL.
As the Xpeia ZL has an odexed ROM I guess I have to first deodex it, there is an guide of tickle my android I guess that describes how it is done, I guess it can be applied to the XZL?
Thanks in advance for answering.
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
You might want to check the Xperia Z thread as they have been doing this and that phone has had a good head start in terms of XDA dev. Since they are quite similar, the mod might work for the ZL as well.
I read through the Xperia Z forum but didn't find a mod that could remove the toggles, did you found one?
Ok, I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38723261 mod in the Xperia z forum but the link isn't working. Maybe if we all ask the guy to put another working link he'll put it up because so far he hasn't reuploaded the link for the 3 people who've asked him to.

It should be as simple as finding/replacing the smali code to match the mods for Z. I'd have to take a look at it, but if the Z/ZL are indeed the same then all the mods should work.

[Q] Is it possible to get touchwiz on my Xperia ZL?

Well, I'm just wondering if it is possible to get Touchwiz on my Xperia ZL? (Android 4.2.2)
I really like the Touchwiz better than the one on default Xperia ZL..
Any suggestions?
not sure if it works completely (did a quick search) but try this link
- http://www.4shared.com/android/iXHhE_E_/Samsung_Touchwiz_Launcher.htm
however i think a better route for u to go is by getting something like nova launcher and an icon pack, much faster

It is designed to work on not modified original Sony UI, not some strange mods. There is nothing you can do here, it is not Sony's fault.
You could always restore the gorgeous Sony stock bar from your backup, or reflash the Stock ROM.
Write me a pm, I'll send you a fix.

Don't bother about them. I don't get why people register on xda, a site made for mods, only to tell people to go back to stock and that things can't be fixed. This is xda. There is a fix for everything and if there isn't, someone's simply gonna make a fix.
Or why they bother to reply if they have nothing helpful to say.
Anyway, I sent you my fix, it works for me, Please let me know if it works for you too

Try clearing appdata of the walkman app. Then restart your phone
Press thanks if I helped
If someone could give me their framework-res.apk and Walkman apk (I believe it's called SemcMusic.apk or WALKMAN 7.9.A.0.1.apk)
I might be able to fix it.
