How many of you were aware of Widgetsoid2.x's ability to have notification power widgets (if properly configured) with which you can toggle directly from the notification area (like under CM6.1/CM7) without having to toggle the widgets from a separate popup it launches first (like under Power Control Plus, Extended Controls, others)?
Screenshot taken using Widgetsoid2.x on Ginger-Tazz-Sense b3.
Not really a fan of the coloration of the notification icons. I like the widget controls however.

Me neither, for the notification area I had to color the icons black to be able to see them well (the background doesn't change no matter what in the notification area it seems) and set them to highlighted all the time (unless that was one of the other apps I tried). It definitely would be nice if the icons were more easily customizable - other apps were able to change the color of individual icons, and individual "active" indicators at the bottom.
The one-click notification control was definitely the winning factor for me.
yup, I liked the notification widget when I wasnt using CM7....it comes in handy
Other downfall is WiFi by and god just open the settings. Unless I'm mistaken.

Yeah, that would definitely be a bummer. I would probably use a combination of Widgetsoid2.x and another app in order to provide 1-click for WIFI in that situation.
I'm using Ginger-Tazz-Sense (beta 3 but beta 7 is out now) and this newer Sense interface already has some built-in toggles in the notification/status area, so I don't bother using Widgetsoid2.x for WIFI and some other things.
Check out my screenshot (fixed, ImageShack seems to have a problem with a period in the picture filename I had previously) in my first post ^ to see the second tab at the bottom of the status area, that's where the new Sense's built-in toggles are. Sure you have to make one more click to select that tab but it's still fast.
Yeah I am running beta 5 right now having the minor white screen but if i keep enough ram open i have no issue
this looks pretty neat. thanks

If you have any trouble configuring it the way you think it should work shoot me a message.
In general, it appears you have to keep the option checkmarked at first to open notification widgets as a separate popup which you then click on the widget you want from there. After that first time, THEN you can uncheck the open as popup option and it appears to work just fine from the notification/status area after that.
ye, i have never heard of this before,
but it looks clean and clear in a glance
Hi there,
New to Themer, and liking the idea so far.
I have downloaded the theme Hills (screenshot attached). Love it because it's very simple.
To make it even more simple, I have removed the background, and am loving the idea of a simple lack screen with clean look.
I am hoping to be able to ask the developer to create another version similar to my other screenshot. It would be really handy to have unread email, text and calls, maybe in a neat box just like the time, or better still just a small black and white icon, that a number gets superimposed on, a bit like the stock samsung S2 can do.
Also, would love to have another three, customizable, icons on the seconds apps home screen. I like having an icon on homescreen to turn on a flashlight etc
If anyone can get me in touch with developer, or tell me how to modify this theme the way i'd like, that would be great.
Thanks in advance.
Steve
Hi
You can make the change by yourself. Thats one of the best parts of Themer.
Is it a app or what? Meaning themer?

We recommend trying out the widget - Everything Widget. It's very easy to use and you can always export your theme (via the advanced settings) if you want to keep it for later

I have a similar problem. I created another screen and i want to replicate the app drawer icon on the bottom but I can't find where the picture of the icon is saved to. Is there any way to access the icon pic?

You must use the download as if you just save the PIC you can see it will lose its transparency

So there's no dedicated lg weather app, besides triggering it from the lg home screen widget (won't work with nova). This is clearly different from the g3 ports I ran on my now "old" g2 which had a weather app, and lockscreen animations worked. Is this why the lockscreen weather animations aren't working? Wtf Verizon, and what is that God awful messaging app Verizon added?!... One word.... "frozen!" - thank you ioroot!
I also tried making some nova shortcuts to the weather app (which appears in the list for activities), but it says the app is not installed....
Another oddity, where the hell did my weatherbug elite app go? It's gone from the playstore! Only the free, ad supported one is available to me....
Yep, your weatherbug, also can not find Flowly, ESPN sportscenter, apparently Verizon also wiped out the LG tasks app (although I see it in the app manager). Only weather animation or anything I've seen on the lock screen is when it's raining.
I also can not figure out how to get a message preview on my lock screen of a text rather than just "test".

yeah my lockscreen was covered with rain drops and i have espn sportscenter but i did restore all my apps from tibu
I noticed a few things missing, so I'm currently downloading a different rom and I'm going to see if I can pull those apks, add them to my Verizon G3, and get the proper weather animations along with a few other missing goodies. If someone could help compile a list of all missing features, that would help.
I know the weather animations are off, no stock browser, and no access to the Task app, but what else was there? (This will give me something to do at work today. :silly: )

Nice, I'm still plucking through, but I'll keep this thread posted with my findings. Much like the verizon g2 we also don't have the "hiddenmenu.apk", so no dialer codes will work. @xdabbeb came up with a great solution by pulling the apk from another varient, pushing it to system/app and firing of a terminal or adb code to execute it on the g2. I don't see any this wouldn't work here either.
Thanks for doing this. Is there a native flashlight app, or a way to set mms limit so pictures look better, or a way to see a text message preview on the lock screen (like the g2, had an option to read part of the message vs "New message" ) on the other g3 variants

will the home screen weather widget from the G2 work on the G3?
Anyone notice the lack of wallpapers? And literally no live wallpaper! LG should have that out the box..I shouldn't have to go look for a live wallpaper or a nice wallpaper on day 1

I also noticed that if you set an Alarm, it doesn't show up on the Lockscreen. So if you want to check what time you set the alarm, there is no way to know unless you check the clock app. Talking about the weather info on Lockscreen, on the S3, after the JellyBean update, Samsung took away the Weather info from the Lockscreen. Why? I don't understand why Manufacturers are removing these simple and useful information.
That sucks, coming from a G Flex, probably the best stock weather animation out of the box, I am going to miss it. Granted I switched to Nova for awhile and lost the awesome weather widget, however still have the weather on the lockscreen.
Oh well, shouldn;'t even say I will miss it, as I will be currently rocking two phones. Flex for at home and LG G3 will be my work phone as I don't get service for crap in PA from Tmobile, my current provider. Great in the city, terrible in the boonies....still!
Should have my G3 Tomorrow, hopefully. Their CS is a joke compared to Tmobiles...also their online site!
I'm not sure if this is what you are referring to, but in your post title it says you lack lock screen weather. If you go into settings, under lock screen, you can set it to show widgets and add the widgets you want, which includes weather. From there, when you wake the device, the lock screen will show the weather widget on top.
I saw where you can check that box, I don't see any place you can actually add a widget though.
The lack of apps on Google Play is due to the screen resolution and size. When more developers start including it in their app development we will start to see more apps available from Google Play. You should be able to side-load them ok though. However there is no guarantee they will work.
You should have better luck from the more active/better developers .

If you prefer press and hold the lock screen, you can drag it down and it only displays lock. Once that's done, you can press and hold the clock and drag up to the trash. After that you can add the widget you want in it's place.
Got some rain tonight and got the animations. Definitely cool, wish they showed for all types of weather.

Update. Weatherbug elite does not show up on my transformer or my note 3. Also noticed in some reviews for Weather Bug a comment from the developer saying Elite has been discontinued.

I'll wait for this too.
The app is great, and I think it'll be amazing out of beta.
All the fancy stuff it does is great.
I'd love to get into this program and make tons of themes but some these basic problems really turn me away.
I guess I can wait for this wallpaper thing to work but weather really turns me away.
Also the inability to set multiple locations kind of sux too.
I wish android also separated cell and gps location so that i can always leave at least cellphone tower location on.

Hi,
Live wallpapers might take a while, however we can help with multiple locations.
If you long press on the widget - Advanced - Unlock widgets. Then long press again on the widget and select Configure. This will open the Themer Zooper Widget configuration menu.
Next select Location and select the "+" icon. Input a new location and select save. Add as many as you want.
Now go back and select the Layout option and navigate to the module you'd like to configure (such as location or temperature). Scroll down and select Override Widget Locality, then choose a location.
Go back out of everything and wait for the widget to refresh. Now long press on an empty space and lock your widgets again (or via the Themer menu if there is no free space).
Good luck! Let me know if there's anything else you need!

Ever wish that LG had given the V10/V20 more widgets in the second screen? Well, wish no more! BoredSigns adds many more widgets to your SignBoard (get it? SignBoard --> BoredSigns?), ones you may need and ones you may not.
The best part about BoredSigns? It doesn't need root! That's right; you can get some brand new widgets on your completely Stock V10 or V20. In the future, ADB may be necessary for certain widgets, but right now, you don't need your computer at all.
Current widgets:
— Information
— Weather
— Image
— Navigation Bar
This app is open source! If you aren't willing to pay $0.99 to buy it, feel free to build it for yourself. I only ask that it not be re-distributed without substantial modifications (i.e. more than changing the theme and name).
GitHub: https://github.com/zacharee/BoredSigns
Google+: https://plus.google.com/communities/105544332208886942595
Feel free to open an issue on GitHub to suggest a new widget!
Package name is com.zacharee1.boredsigns

I bought it in the play store (I want to support any development for the 2nd screen).
I have to thank you just for the simple fact that at first, I didn't know how to run it... so I went into the 2nd screen options. I had no idea that I had other widgets that I could run. I never thought to tap the "..." on "Show when main screen on" so I have been stuck with the basic options this whole time. Worth my $1.05 right there.
So, after using it for a few minutes, I noticed the persistent notification for BoredSigns, so I long-pressed it and turned off all notifications. Will this negatively affect the operation of the app? I did notice that when I swiped my notification shade down, or when switching between widgets, the 2nd screen options would come on, so I restarted the phone. It doesn't seem to be doing that anymore, but I did have to toggle weather on and off a few times to get a real location and not 100*F in Philadelphia.
Bonus question... where can I find out more about the "yet unreleased AOSP implementation of the 2nd screen?"
Found the perfect image for the second screen a mod one of the best football team in the world...perfect fit and color !
Happy user here....thank you again for this :highfive:
So someone suggested I do a navigation bar widget. After lots of Java reflection (the actual tool, not thinking about my life with Java), I went with a simple Accessibility Service.
Because of that, these functions will be available:
- Back
- Home
- Recents
- Split Screen
- Power
- QS Pulldown
- Notification Pulldown
If there are any other (simple) buttons you might want, suggest them. I'll add them in if I can.
Here's what it looks like right now:
