Brightness slider in notification drop down. Anyone have it?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768962
This thread has some awesome customization features including adding the brightness slider into the notification toggle. However, as far as I can tell these themes only work on the GSM variant. I thought about giving it a try on the FreeGS3 R6 ROM but I'm a bit nervous about screwing my device up.
Anyone have another theming option for the brightness slider known to work with the T-Mobile variant? Or is anyone willing to try one of the themes in the above thread and report back?

Try this if you like..found it on sgs3 international version but it works on Tmo version.

Ha! I'm using your ROM but definitely not feeling the black/white theme. I just need Wildchld to add this feature to his XquiziT theme and I'll be a happy camper.

+1 on the slider in blue. Maybe someone could put it as an add on

If that kept the cyan colored toggle buttons I'd give it a try but I am not a fan of that brighter blue.
... I know I know, I'm picky.

You sure about that? I just flashed this on my Tmo S3 and now I'm getting an error message saying "Unfortunately, system UI has crashed." No more notification bar.

I'm using it on freegs3 R6 rom no issue. But as usual I make a back up whenever I flash something. Also flashing your rom back will bring things back to normal without losing anything.

I used to use this but I found sometimes hard to adjust and you can see the bar. If you make it semi or fully transparent its even harder to adjust. You can make the sliding area wider but it could take up too much area as to accidentally adjust the screen brightness when you're just trying to do notification pull down. Bad when you're outdoor in daylight and you accidentally dim the screen.

The latest CM10 8/14 build is finally stable enough to use as a daily driver. So I ended up switching to that and I haven't found any bugs at all thus far. The huge plus here is that it has the feature built in where you can just slide your finger across the status bar to increase or decrease the brightness. It works great and I am extremely pleased.

I had CM on my old phone and LOVED that feature. Can't wait for a stable version of CM 10 to come out and then I will flash it, but I honestly don't think this stock TouchWiz ROM is terrible...

Well it looks like the new base comes with it. All we need to do is wait for the devs to do their thing and make it run faster and more efficiently while adding a better look to it

[Q] Garnet Red Softkey Color

Is there a way to change the softkey colors back to white? It's hardware so maybe not but there could be a way right?

UGH, new Google Play Music is awful, help?

Help, Nexus 7 & Android nerds! The just-pushed Google Play Music v5.0.x is utter, unmitigated crap. It looks like someone ate a box of orange creamsicles and vomited them on my tablet, it is difficult to navigate playlists, and it's hard to differentiate between music I actually have versus what they're trying to sell me especially if I'm using it on the move.
I want to downgrade to the last version, but I'm new to android and have only gotten rooting my tablet down so far. I have a .apk of v4.5.9, I have root access, and I have Titanium installed. But I do not know how to make all of the above result in v5.0.x being nuked from orbit (its the only way to be sure!) and the older version working in its place. Also concerned about blocking further "updates."

Just unistall the update like you would do with any other app...
Instead of "uninstall" there is an "uninstall update" option.

There's an inverted one already too. I didn't like the orange and white either. Lol
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

That's one of the craziest things I ever heard. The new update is one of the best designed apps on Android, period. All the gestures make it a breeze to navigate. I think I would actually vomit if I went back to the old version after using the new one LoL

Total agreement. This guy is crazy.

Yes yellow is ugly, Ill load up the darkened. But my wife uses spotify and can sync/cache her playlist on your phone, like from WiFi, how can this be done with this?

Hopefully orange and white isn't the new KeyLimePie color scheme.

Hopefully they're just using different colors to distinguish the apps and the holo light ui. Google Play Store was green and white. Equally as bad in my opinion. But as long as there's great themers like the ones in Team BlackOut it'll be great

I have most of my music on my laptop, so I installed Google Music on that, once its synced you can stream it through data or WiFi to your phone or whatever device. I think you can sync multiple accounts too.

I honestly have no problem with the way it looks, but it functions rather poorly. I literally rotated my nexus 7 and the whole app just gave up while trying to change orientation.

I don't see a problem with it and honestly the inverted apps look pretty boring, like there no theme at all.

Uhh maybe because
Green = apps
Red = movies
Blue = books
Orange = music.
So yeah the music app is always going to be orange.

I made this account just to agree with the OP. I had to say something about this, I am actually shocked there are so few who are..
He is right, this is horrible. It was so much easier to use before, I don't need a picture of every artist and so on.. Just a bunch of fancy nonsense.. I simply want to listen to my music and find it easily. I notice things like recent albums is missing which I used a lot to find new music I uploaded easily, is it really just gone? Or am I doing something wrong? Before I never had to use the search function.. Now I do which sucks. The orange color is awful also I mean horrid, I don't know how you go from grey and black to freaking orange.. I hate it, it reminds of that horrible Cingular Wireless orange icon..
I personally would take green over this sherbert orange any day.
I really wish I payed attention to the update, not like I knew they would do a complete overhaul ruining the entire app for me. I really don't see how anyone thinks it looks better or even functions better but to each their own.
I thought it was completely fine the way it was. Reminds me of when iTunes was ruined.. People can't just stick with what works well.. Anyway just my take on it. I absolutely loath this new update.

Thanking the gods for this.. Black is all I need.. That orange honestly makes me sick.

I agree as well. The new UI I think is horrible. Never mind the look and colors, etc. The general setup of the UI took a turn from the worse. Most the people I have talked to feel the same as well.
Honestly, I would of never bought the music I bought if I knew they were going to IMO destroy the app.

didn't really like the old one but it worked but new one is just terrible... are there any other reliable 3rd party Google music players?

Or.... you could try out ZPlayer.. Noozy is just ZPlayer illegally hacked and rebranded hence why it's no longer available and is highly controversial.
If your into that kind of thing of course.

That's pretty much it. I went to the Samsung themes and checked a few out. Not too bad. Coming from the Note 3 so this theming everything dialer, messages, drop down notifications is very cool. They even let you install a 5 min demo which is pretty cool.

the only way to get paid themes to work is after you done downloaded the themes and applied then you need to disable "Themes Store" and "Themes", with Package Disabler Pro you can get them from APtoide store.

I have heard VPN, but since OP is saying that won't work anymore I don't think there is. Samsung is always working on adding more countries to the list. Basically just pray your country will be on the next batch of places to get it.

I finally have a phone with an amoled screen again so, I'm leaning towards darker or black themes.

Download the test version, then go into ES FILE EXPLORER with root rights and go to DATA/overlays/Jsonfiles... in the trialjson are the "test" version files..... cut it and move them to userjson.... then go back to overlays and delete the PREFERENCES folter and restart.....after restart you have the PAID version of the theme!

Off course you can sideload it, but it doesn't actually work in all countries; you get stopped serverside.

Finally working. Been waiting for months it seems. Good to have it back, some of that functionality should just come stock with the phone.

I downloaded the new version for android 10 but I still dont have a way to mod the lock screen or nav bar. Lock Star and Navi Star are missing? Dont seem like much of an update if two of the main features are missing..

I have lock star but not nav bar. Never used nav bar. Popular to one may not be popular for the next person.

How did you get Lock Star? I updater to Android 10 yesterday and downloaded the Good Lock app that's supposed to be for 10 but like I said I have all the the other apps but no Lock Star or Navi Star? What could be wrong??

Previously things that didn't work said unplugged but now even they it doesn't work lockstar says installed not unplugged. It's broke, sorry for the misinformation.
