My S4 had a toggle for mobile data, my note 3 doesn't, I can still turn it off, but there is a few more steps involved to get to it. Getting ready to flash this DARTHSTALKER rom, maybe it will be available in there I hope. I go hours at work not needing mobile data, and I also shut it off when I go to bed, I'd really like a toggle.
Yeah and I also noticed that there is no homescreen widget for WatchOn but there is for the lockscreen

I use the Notification Toggle app. It lets you put any shortcut or app in your pulldown shade below the brightness slider. I put the Mobile data toggle on it

I'd like to toggle data off completely AND/OR toggle CDMA/LTE..
Beautiful widgets 4g toggle is broken and just says airplane mode.
Aren't there aren't there any 1x1 data/cdma/lte toggle widgets?
if you are rooted, there are mods and roms which have this feature
however, if you are unrooted, the best you can get is a widget which acts as a shortcut and takes you to the settings page to turn off lte manually
you can just search for 4g toggles in the Play store in that case

I've found that 'LTE Switch' from the app store works. It's not a real widget or app - it just takes you to the settings page, but it works.
AOKP has an option to add an LTE toggle to the drop down menu, I would guess other ROMS do too. Very awesome feature, even though I don't use it very much.

How, without root / flash?
I use Notification Toggle: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.notificationToggle
I think it's the best one because of its customization options and the fact that I can download stock ICS icons for it. Plus, you can add apps (free, included in app) and shortcuts ($0.99 add-on). Like I have the shortcut for my AudioManager Pro Profile list in there and an icon that runs the Lockscreen app (saves pressing the power button to shut the screen off).
I'm not rooted. The only useful thing root would give me is the ability to directly toggle GPS rather than having to go to the settings page, but considering I almost always leave GPS on, I don't really care about that.

+ 1 for that......im using too and it is awesome.....
elixir2 does this also...
I also prefer Notification Toggle over Widgetsoid. Stock icons and the ability to always have it at the top of the notification screen. My only complaint is that it's a little laggy when tapping thru the brightness settings.
I use AoKp to do this without using a app....:beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:

If only I liked AOKP. *sigh*
Thanks for the recommendations, shall have to try these, because besides themes, the notification pulldown with a plethora of settings to play with are what I miss most from MIUI builds on the HD2.

Much easier to install a custom rom than an app right? lol
Anyway, +1 for Notification Toggle. I was using Extended Controls for it but Notification Toggle is much better since it stays on top of other notifications and it also replaces the Battery Widget that I was using to display the battery % in the bar.
so have any of these been updated so that i don't have a constant icon running in my notification bar? i don't know why but that's a dealbreaker for me.
btw, i'm not rooting yet until CM9. temporary solutions without the annoying notification icon?
Thanks OP
Forgot about widgetsoid and how awesome it is. Between this and Nova launcher gestures I now have the perfect setup for my home screen because of this.
Swipe up - brings up the app drawer
Swipe down - brings down the notifications
Home button press while on the homescreen - brings up voice search
Any idea how to change the colour of the battery icon in the status bar using the Notification Toggle app? I want to change it to ics blue.

+1 on this. What's worse is they'll give the option for no icon, but then it just leave a blank spot in the notification bar.............
That's a limitation of Android, so until Google offers a better way, that's how it has to be.

I'm running S3Rx v1.5 which uses the AdvanceS toggles. I'd like to use the lockscreen toggle to quickly enable/disable the lockscreen. What I'm finding is that it works after a reboot until I access something through the notification pulldown. It's pretty repeatable with gmail or AOSP email.
- Lockscreen toggle works perfect.
- I get a notification of a new message.
- I pulldown the notification window and touch the gmail message.
- My lockscreen pops up. (shouldn't do this, should go straight to gmail)
- I enter the pattern (I use pattern lock)
- Gmail opens up
Now from this point on, the lockscreen toggle won't work again until I reboot. The lockscreen is enabled regardless of the toggle. The toggle looks like it's working, it lights up and goes gray, but it's doing nothing.
Anyone else see this or have input?
why u running v1.5? the v1.6 been out for couple days already, try it out.

I was about to but then saw multi-window was busted.
Just updated to S3Rx 1.6, same behavior. As far as I can tell, clicking any notification in the pulldown window enables the lockscreen and I can't disable it again until I reboot.
Hello,
I am new to Android. Have a HTC One M8 with Viperone Rom. I have moved from iPhone.
I have done some thorough research but sometimes can't find a straight answer. I hope you guys can help give me some guidance. Some questions may be totally ridiculous so excuse my ignorance.
Questions about Lock Screen:
1. How can I modify lock screen? I would like something similar to iOS.
2. There are lock screen launchers on the app store, is there other alternatives? App store launchers feels like add-ons to stock lock screen - doesn't feel smooth nor secure.
3. Access notification panel on lock screen? Even without entering pass code?
4. Better music controls like iOS?
Questions about Home Screen:
1. How to modify launcher? Any home screens that mimic windows phone 8 live tiles?
2. Can I get Google Now Launcher for Viperone Rom?
3. Can I enable/disable widgets to save on battery life?
4. Is there a way of replacing blinkfeed with google now or an entire full screen app such as faceboook or flipboard?
Questions about Notification Panel:
1. Any iOS-like notification panel?
2. Control Center like panel with unified music controls?
Questions about Battery Life:
1. My battery life is very bad. 3 hours with screen on over a whole day period - See attached. Is that normal?
2. What is the most common GPU Governor? I had mine on ONDEMAND but now moved to conservate. Makes a difference with battery life?
Questions about Viperone and Sense:
1. Is there multi-tasking dual app function?
2. I don't see any sound enhancer option?
3. No switch for changing from 4G to 3G to 2G mobile radio?
4. Activator like function?
5. Can I disable Google Now switch up home button function? Sometimes it's really sensitive and buggy?
Sorry for the numerous questions! But if anyone can answer them all for me it will be greatly appreciated!!
Regards,
RollZ
Lockscreen:
You can change it to the AOSP lockscreen in the Viper tweaks and see if you like that (look under the lockscreen section)
I believe you can already access the notification bar while one the lockscreen unless changed in viper tweaks
Homescreen:
To have a windows tiled homescreen you can try Launcher 8
Google Now Launcher Cant download from the play store and have to download the apk, and install and keep it updated yourself....
You can remove The blinkfeed page but i do not believe you can replace it... Not to my knowledge
To disable widgets just delete it off the homescreen ... hold widget and drag to top
Notification Panels:
There aren't many ways to change the notification panel. But you can look in the Viper Tweaks and change what you want in there.
Music controls can be used on the lockscreen and notification panel, other than that Not quite sure
Battery
My phone usually lasts 24-48 hrs with texting and social things. be sure to use the power saver setting under battery in the settings. It helps a bit
I'd leave all that alone and stock. 1ghz cpu and ondemand govener. This phone is powerful and doesn't require 2ghz
Other:
I dont believe there is any one sense for dual app things... maybe someone else can come by and answer that
There are no music enhancements on the htc one m8 its just whats already there (I may get corrected) But I use power amp to tune my music how i want it. The audio is nice on this phone already. If you need a music enhancer check out Harman/Kardon mod Make sure you are S-off to avoid problems... S-off ing doesnt take that much experience and it self explanatory! Its good to have !
Not sure why you would want to be switching... but you can turn off LTE by going to setting and clicking on Mobile Data (not the on/off switch) and network mode and changing it that way or go into Venom Tweaks and the misc options and click phone info and there is a pop down menu with a bunch of options
Activator?
Not sure if you can switch the home button but you can go into Settings>apps>All and click Google Search and hit disable and if you ever want it back just go back to it and hit enable
I hope i help a little ! Have a nice night!
Hello,
Thanks for your answers bilbox...but that stuff I already know.
But more technical stuff.
Tried AOSP lock screen from viper tweaks...its okay but don't see a camera shortcut like it should be.
notification panel I find can only be access if ur phone is within the time period set by the auto lock.
Notification panel tweaks are still very limited - and doesn't look as nice as iOS. No blurred translucency? and control center access with unified music controls? Some easy access widgets would be nice.
Launcher 8 I know but haven't tried...dunno how comprehensively good it is at mimics all features of home screen.
Widgets I know how to remove but is there a way to temporoarily disable for saving ram and battery?
Also can u have unlimited home pages? If no blinkfeed mod replacement that would be awesome mod request idea! Wouldn't it be great to swipe to have instant Facebook/messaging?
Probs have no choice but to tone down CPU settings for stupid battery.
How bout tweaks for auto switching mobile signal off while WiFi is on. I have a basic tasker set up but tasker says it has can't control certain settings aspect unless "rooted" which I Am!
Anyone can help answer other queries I have would be fantastic!

Perhaps for your lockscreen try an app like widget locker...Lot of customization there once you get the right widgets. You could use Zooper or UCCW to create your own widgets as well.
There are good amount of notification panel tweaks in Venom Tweaks. That combined with Statusbar themes in the Hub should give you all the customization you would need.
What exactly do you think disabling widgets would save for battery life/ram? Probably better off looking into what is draining your battery so fast if that is an issue. Use an app like Better Battery Stats and as far as ram goes the phone has plenty so really no need to worry about it. Android itself actually does a pretty good job managing resources.
If you setup wifi and leave it on it should auto switch between mobile data/wifi when within or out of range. Leaving wifi on should not drain battery to much if properly configured.
You can not have unlimited home screens. I believe the limit in Viper is 5 and that can be increased to 7 using the Sense 6 Toolbox xposed module.
Notification pulldown tweaks aren't applying
I realize this is kind of an old thread.
I just installed ViperOne (6.2.0) on my HTC One M7 (AT&T). Android v. 4.4.2, Sense v. 6.0. I know this thread is for M8, but I doubt this would be an issue.
I've messed with the tweaks quite a bit and pretty much have everything the way I want, except for the notification pulldown screen. It has the weather and HEQS. I don't want these here.
I have Googled, read the User Guide on the Venom website, restarted the status bar on the phone, restarted the phone (quick and full), but I cannot hide the weather or HEQS. I tried the suggestions on the User Guide to make the notification area look more like stock.
Am I missing something? I very well could be.
Thank you in advance for any help.

Hello,
I don't have weather nor HEQS on my notification pull down.
Under venon tweaks > status bar, I have HEQS Style set to original and the Hide/Show Quick settings/Quick Launch set to Off. If you scroll futher down to the Notification pull down tweaks section, click weather and click hide, to hide the weather.
Hope that helps.
Best Regards,
Homescreen
Dear friends, I just locked the workspace of homescreen. How do I unlock it? Searched and tried everything. Can't move anything on homescreen. Please help!!
On the note 2 there is a toggle to use the flash as a flash light (status bar). Can't find it on the note 4 ..... any way to restore it ?
i know there are apps but they have excessive permissions or serve ads and the buit in phone feature was convenient.
I didn't see at the status bar any flashlight toggle but you have at the widgets the flashlight widget that works well.
Another thing I miss about not being rooted : )

+1 ztorch was the bomb, but it requires root. :crying:
There's a built in widget that turns on the flash. Just put it on a home screen.
Long press empty home screen area, tap widgets, and look for flashlight. No app needed to be downloaded.
