[CM9][STATUS/NOTIF BAR MOD] [DEV] Reloaded ICS 1.9b3-041012 | CM9 UI Enhancements - Epic 4G General

I posted this yesterday in the CM9 thread, but in case some people didn't see it, here's a nice mod I found in the Android Software Dev thread that let's you customize just about everything in your status bar and notification drawer. Works perfectly on our phones just flashing over cm9 (i'd wipe chache/dalvik 1st though). Probably will take a little time to set it up just right, but once you do, it's a real babe.
here ya go - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531222
If u plan on using this mod to make a reddish theme, try flashing this theme I modded for us - http://db.tt/0ciguWu5 - screenshots (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1561544)

I love AOKP but the missing data toggles really bother me lol. This is perfect addon for cm9.

Hopefully someone figures out how to get the 4g toggle to appear or patch it so it does.

hell yeah, this is just what i've been looking for!
excellent work!

This is schweet! gives me a volume and brightness slider in the notification tray just like I've always wanted. The custom colors option is fantastic too.

Brightness notification bar slider in any ROMs?

I have been really enjoying the ROMs developed by users (Team Whiskey, Devs4Android, etc) but the one thing I really miss is the notification bar brightness slider. I've been searching for a way to use this on the ROMs but have come up with nothing. Is this possible to do for the lay ROM loader or must the devs implement this? Perhaps I just missed discussion on the topic elsewhere.
Thanks!
::edit:: so I just figured it out. I guess that you just have to hold you finger in place over the notification bar for a while before sliding in the newer roms. I guess that saved from accidentally changing brightness. The more you know....
I'm on Nero v3 and its working for me.

ROM Control Or Quick Panel Toggles for JJHybrid v3 Stable?

Hi,
I am sorry I couldnt resolve StatusBar FC problem yet with V3 TEST Hybrid ROM....
For the Time being until that bug is resolved, I am planning on Removing ROM Control from v3 Stable release to allow users to have a ROM without FCs..
I will include Quick Panel Toggles in Statusbar instead if you guys want ROM Control Removed depending on Votes I see in Polling which will close in 72 hrs..
Dont worry for those who Miss ROM Control, I will put it as a flashable Patch that will automatically remove QuickPanel Settings and replace it with ROM Control..
Remember, With QuickPanel settings you will have option for Onscreen HW Keys as Addons since it was ROM Control that wasnt allowing me to provide u with it...
Decide and let me know..
Quick Panel settings all the way!
Rom control is nice but I like on screen buttons much more
Besides, if you also make a patch for Rom Control (as you said) then everyone is happy.
I´m too.
I'm still on V2.0 so I don't use Rom Control. On the other side, I use the quick panel toggles a lot! And as f_zurzolo said, if you give flashable patch, everyone should be happy
so --> Quick Panel voted
Definitely a wise decision I feel. ROM Control is great but the simplicity of Quick Panel seems to fit better for this ROM...
AND it sounds like it makes your life a lot easier so really that's most important You're doing us all a HUGE favour developing this at all, the most important thing is making it as easy and un-stressful for you as possible
i prefer quick panel bec. i love a ROM without FC's
i hate a Rom that have FC's what ever features is it.....
thanks for ur development
i cant w8 once my phone repaired at sony service and once i receive my phone i will first unlockbootloader and then root and last flash this great rom!!!

FC or not, I still prefer quick panel more, still on 2.2 because of that.
I prefer ROMControl, because I love center clock style and weather in notification bar
I vote for quick panel
quick panel for me.
quick panel for me to
i like rom control as i can get center clock and many tweaks
and am fed up of quickpanel on all rom VOTE FOR ROM CONTROL
ROM Control important tweaks
ROM control allows tweaks like battery only text in statusbar and power saver (data and sync action) that I found really important!
Can you post addons to replace these functions?
Vote
Quick panel also... Rom Control deos not work for me, after reboot Start-up Tweaks revert to original setting (no boxes tiked). Also in CPU setings i did not found setings for I/O scheduler...
Quick Panel also, I don't see any features in Rom control that is crutialy important (most of the features doesn't work either way)

If you remove Rom Control will you provide BATTERY 1% MODS as you did in previous version?

Jelly Bean CM10 Lockscreen gestures

Hi,
Does CM10 or CM9 support lockscreen gestures? I can't find anything about it in the FAQ or the description of the ROMs.
I'm wondering why this question has not been asked more often... In my opinion this is one of the best features- I can turn on the flashlight drawing an "L" while my mobile is still in my pocket!
Another thing is the permission management. Is it possible to block some permissions for an app in CM9 or CM10 ???
I'm still on CM7 but would like to switch to JB as soon as I know whether those features are available in CM9 or CM10.
Thank you,
Greetings
Haven't seen this so far, but i will also keep on searching. If i find any helpful stuff i will post it immediately in this thread.

I'm really hoping that the lockscreen gestures come back...
Am I the only one who is thinking that this feature is so important?
Nope u arn't alone I also think so
Sent from my MB525 using xda app-developers app
i too think that lockscreen gestures is one of the best features of cm7, but i wouldnt get my hopes up regarding it being ported to cm10 as one half of the screen is taken by the unlocker 'slide', and the other is by music control. remember in cm7 the music control was 3 little buttons at the bottom and there was plenty of room for drawing the gestures. i have no idea how it could be solved now :/
Man I was hoping this was already available!
I never used cm7 by myself cause i have an st15i and when i found out about cm the newest version was cm9 so i used that one. I was surely cool to have gestures on the lockscreen and i cant wait for it to be ported (somehow). Google gesture search is like the cm gestures just not on the lock screen but works exactly like cm version.
Please ask all questions in Q&A. Thread moved there.
I really miss this feature. Hopefully lockscreen gestures will be implemented in CM10 eventually, but in the meanwhile, the "Gesture Lock" app seems to be a close approximation: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.whacked.gesturelock&hl=en

I'm using this right now, but it has some faults.
1) no sensitivity control like CM7. So, a curved line pretty much runs the same gesture as a straight line. Without sensitivity control, you are very limited to the gestures you can use unless they are uniquely intricate.
2) The giant clock. I hate this clock on the bottom of the screen. I have a lock screen image I use that displays owner info and some other important info. The clock takes up a large portion of the screen and makes it hard to fit. Besides, the status bar has a clock, so it's pretty much just double displaying info I don't need. I would be willing to pay the developer to add a hide clock option, but next item rules out that option.
3) The developer isn't working on it any more. I've emailed him to ask some questions and he said he's pretty much too busy to do anything with it, so don't expect any updates or improvements.
4) No shortcut ability, other than launching apps. CM7's gestures would let you set a gesture to run things like direct dial a number, toggle sound, turn on flashlight. Gesture lock can only launch apps. While this is a let down, I have found a solution to the problem by using Tasker. Takser now has the App Factory which lets you create an app for anything Tasker can do, which is pretty much anything. So, I've created a few apps like toggle flashlight, which unlocks pattern lock, toggles Tesla LED, then locks the device again. Essentially, it toggles the flashlight pretty much the same as CM7 did. I've also made a couple direct dial apps that work similarly to dial a phone number and relock the screen.
5) No way to choose the color of the gesture trail or disable trails. I loved that I could hide the gesture trails because I made my lock screen look like a regular lock screen with a slide to unlock graphic. If you didn't know the gesture to unlock the phone, you would think the screen is frozen because the slide was just an image that didn't move! With Gesture Lock, you can see the yellow trails and it gives away everything.
Overall, it's a decent app, but nothing close to the CM7 gesture settings. I will forever miss it if it never comes to CM10. I'll probably also never use CM10 if this feature doesn't get added because I am perfectly happy with stock JB as it is now. I've got a ridiculous battery life on my Razr Maxx HD, so I don't really need to save battery, which was my man reason for switching to CM7 in the first place. I wonder if enough of us request it with a donation if it might happen. Anyone else interested enough to donate for it?

I just found another alternative: an app called Gestos, available free on the Google Play.
It's a really nice gesture app with lots of options, including a gesture lockscreen that works well. Unfortunately, the custom lockscreen includes an ugly clock that I don't like, but the gestures work well.
The app also has a thread on XDA.

Is there an app to change status bar icons?

As the title states, I've installed Screwd and I'm going for a red theme.. I've changed the clock and nav bar buttons via the ROM options, but there doesn't seem to be anything for the battery, WiFi signal, mobile signal and other potential icons which pop up.
Quite simply I'd like to edit them, an app would be preferable, I'm aware that I can edit some files to get the desired colours although I'd like to avoid that as its a bit of a ballache if you don't do that a lot..
Any ideas?
Thanks.
PS: I won't use xposed so that option is out.
Edit: just realised I hadn't put "Colours" I don't want to edit the image of the icons, just the colour.
Thanks again.
I'd check out layers.
However I use xposed for all theming needs. I would reconsider using it

Would layers be functional with a CM based ROM ? AFAIK screwd is CM based so not sure if this would work..will look into it cheers.
Edit: OK so as far as i can see, it is compatible but it doesn't alter the status bar icons..at least not on their own. Unless I'm not seeing something.
And no I wouldn't use xposed it murders battery life.
This is as far as I've got with it. ROM toolbox doesn't even have icons for cm13. So annoying.
Any other ideas
Anyone???

Rom features most important features to your needs

I am asking this as I am about to start my own rom project for nexus 6p
I am also open to rom bases
What are the most important Rom features to you?
What special features do you like?
What version of root do you prefer?
Do you prefer certain kernel features?
Professional flashaholic here, so here I go:
Must have:
Long press power button for torch
Double tap to sleep anywhere in lockscreen
Battery light (led)
Do not wake screen when plugging charger
Animation speed control (all possible values, not just 1x, 0.5x, etc...)
Status bar ticker
Playback control using volume rocker
Reorient volume buttons on screen rotation
Ambient display advanced customization (especially brightness)
Fingerprint authentication optional vibration
Status bar clock customization
Quick pulldown in quick settings
Fingerprint unlock after reboot
Really nice to have:
Pulse visualization (both in navbar and lockscreen)
Volume panel customization (especially timeout)
Quick unlock
Navigation bar settings (DUI)
Full substratum support (especially if using default teal AOSP color)
All the Pixel goodies (nav bar animations, sounds, wallpapers, launcher, etc)
Root: I say let the user decide, some people prefer SuperSU, some prefer Magisk.
I've used almost all of the Roms here in XDA and other places, and right now, Resurrection Remix is the one that has everything I want, which is not to say that the other roms are bad. In fact, I've enjoyed every single one of them, and I'm immensely grateful to all of the developers here. I usually donate to them when I'm especially happy with a rom. It's like having a new phone every two weeks or so.

Don't include any root! That way is easy for user to stay unrooted if they wish, or to easily flash supersu, magisk, or whatever else.
Redsmith pretty much covered all the bases on a good rom. I'm currently on nitrogen rom 7.1.1 and using substratum. So theming is important to me

I mean it would be cool to have viper arise . But I can always flash it afterwards. Can you make the ROM 7.1.2 based or can u make it the 8.0 Dev preview rooted?
Also pulse on the lockscreen like back in the cm days. Flashlight hold power button.. immersion status and nav bars

To base it on 7.1.2 the source code needs to be released. Since it's still in beta I highly doubt the source has been released yet. If you want 8.0 rooted, why not just install the preview and flash SuperSU?

I might as well actually answer your question in the OP while I'm here. Must have features for me:
- AOSP base
- Long press power for torch with screen off
- Adjustable screen time out settings for lift to wake gesture
- Ability to adjust nav bar height
- Double tap lock screen to sleep
- Volume rocker media control
- Custom quick settings rows/columns (ex: 4x4 layout rather than the stock 3x3)
Anything else is just a bonus but would still be appreciated. I think things that can be flashed like like root, Viper, etc should be left up to the user.

I appreciate all The feedback from all of you this is a great start
When I get a stable version I will.mesaage the guys interested in helping me. Test
As you can make a rom do you think you could possibly help me out with a mka bacon issue. How much ram do you use? As for features/apps I would say include adaway, wakeblock, supersu, viper4arise, substratum and oms support and camera nx and ex kernel manager and for features just copy Resurrection Remix.
I will pm you
I guess I'll throw my hat into the time, as I'm always down to test new ROMs!
Some must haves for me:
- Alarm/Wakelock Blocker
- Navbar dimension tuner
- Pixel icons / Color (I think it's a framework thing)
- Lock screen double tap to sleep
- Lock screen font change
If you need an additional tester I'd be down! Flashaholic, so I could give it a good run through. If somehow you were able to bake a lot of the features mentioned into 7.1.2 I'd download in a heartbeat and donate what I could. Easily
