I liked MiniCM very much, but I can't find a way to increase battery life with that wonderful rom (I tried every trick I found), so I reverted back to stock and modded it a little bit to fit my needs.
I'm really missing two features of MiniCM, and I'd like to know if it could be possible to easily implement them on the stock rom:
1- in the lockscreen I'd like to switch to vibrate mode instead of silent mode
2- I'd like to have all those handy statusbar switches like the ones in MiniCM (to toggle wi-fi, airplane mode, torch, etc.)
Any suggestion?
1. u can use Widget Locker app
2. easy status bar, u can use widgetsoid
both of them is a paid app.. so i can't share them.. sorry.. but u can buy them through market..
Thank you, I found widgetsoid on the market and tried it: it's really nice, but I can't click on the widget if it's put on the status bar, like in MiniCM. Anyway, I've configured a nice home widget with it and I'm happy, althought I'd prefer to have a status bar clickable widget, like the one I used in MiniCM.
Widget Locker is too much for my needs: I just want to slide the "sound" slider (or whatever it's called) in the stock lock screen and switch between sound and vibration, instead of switching between sound and silence: is there a way to do it?

Hi guys,I recently tried one version of widget locker but with no good results,for example,when I unlock the screen it is covered by "grey rectangles" until I move the page. Is there any solution for that?
I also have a problem with widget locker. When i set it, it doesnt replace my lockscreen.
I have the wildfire with stock 2.2
I have to use the stock lockscreen to get to widget locker lockscreen...
I think the problem is in sense rom. I use rom without sense, and widgetlocker work great.
The "grey rectangles" are the "HTC Weather Animations", you can turn them off in Settings (if your weather is rainy, then you see rain drops & a windshield wiper). I agree they are a pain! Without them WL works great on my WF (not rooted, stock 2.2 ROM)
Thanks,but how can I download other kind of lockscreens?In the thread of themes there are lots of particular lockscreens that I didn't find in widgetLocker,are they using a custom theme with modified lockscreens or do they take those from any site?
You make your own lockscreen with whatever widgets you like - same as a Home screen.
You get a choice of several unlock slider styles, or you can put 'Unlock' on a custom slider. Then you make up the screen with Widgets & Sliders as you like. Only limitation I have found is that you can't put any of the HTC Sense Widgets on the lockscreen

Use adb to pull the app from the phone, replace the original .png's with the ones from the thread, or make your own, and replace then back into the apk, then push it back into your phone.
UNINSTALL it first before you push it.
Ok,got it,but need I to root the phone to run adb?I'm asking 'cause I've original froyo and I can't root my WF!
I use for a long period CM6 with android 2.1 and I was very proud to show my friends that I can activate/deactivate WiFi, BT, GPS, etc, etc in the notification bar.
Now I use the prerooted 2.3.3 and I am obliged to use "Parameter->etc etc".
So my question is : Is there anybody in the CM team which is able to make just a little package to add this in a stock 2.3.3 ?
Thanks
NB: I have tried to install cmpart.apk from 2.1 on 2.3.3, but without succes...
If what you want is power control (wifi, bluetooth, gps, etc) on/off thing in your notification bar, the wigetsoid app should do the trick... just create a wiget with what you want on it then go to advance and check the box next to NOTIFICATION then select apply and you should have that wiget on your notification bar

thanks, I try this
After a lot of test, widgetsoid don't make exactly the same.
But it's a very nice app.
On my phone, when I open the notification bar, I can see the widget but when I touch an icon this open a windows on my home with a truncated widget in it...
I try a lot of differents setting wihout succes, so I create a regular 5x1 widget on the top of the third home screen....
Better than nothing....
@OP
u can try this app:

I just wondering if you anyone know how to add power Widget to Pull down Notification like you see CyanogenMod or touch wiz with galaxy?
I am rooted but not running any rom on my photon...
I've went round and round trying to find an app or mod that does this best. I ended up settling with an app called power control plus. The options arnt truly embedded into taskbar, but instead is just a constantly appearing notification widget in your drop down. It is a paid app, and the 4g toggle currently doesnt work for the photon but hey, it does the job and is pretty well customizable.
I've been using Notification Toggle from the Market which is made by one here on XDA. Has worked pretty good for me. Can even add a shortcut for apps, change icons, colors, etc.

Hey guys~
So, I personally don't like the slide toggle in Widgetlocker, so I decided to just get a separate widget that is a button toggle (Silent Toggle) and put it on my lockscreen. Problem is, I don't like the icons >_<
Any way to change the icons? I can't seem to find where the widget was downloaded onto my A2
Also if you have any nice toggle icons, that would be great too
I'm going with a mainly black and white transparent theme and the only icons I could find right now are the ones used it this theme
Thanks^^
If you could also help me with this problem, it would be nice~
Whenever I try to make a shortcut in Launcher Pro for a specific email account that uses the stock email app, the shortcut goes on the homescreen and not the dock. Sometimes it even says that the homescreen has to force close! Any reason for this?

Any help appreciated^^
The notification bar is horrible, i like the stock android one where i can turn off wifi/bluetooth etc - i downloaded an app that tries to emulate these things but its not the real deal.
I already use a custom launcher -how can i replace the notification bar ?

I think root with xposed framework will do. But I dont touch that, because I always semibricked phones with it.
Personally, I only miss the brightness in there. Mine is clean showing only the clock and my push notifications. The stock multitasking feature is full of the Features you want in the notification bar and also customizable. I like the idea as the multitask switching itself on the most roms is very "empty". Just your windows and thats it. In EUI its like a "quickbar"
