Hey,
need a fast way to disable/enable an app. Shortcut would be nice. If it's not possible, shortcut to show application info will be ok.
Is there an app for that purpose?
Thank you!
Galaxy Nexus / Android 4.1.1
+1 to this question! Specifically Kakaotalk has wakelocks but i need it thus i would like to enable/disable easily quickly... any advice would be appreciated!
I'm not sure if this is a feasible option, but you could try the nova launcher. It gives you option to go to app info on long-pressing the shortcut.

Hi I'm trying to figure out how to create a custom shortcut to pull down the notification bar/window. I like to have the thing him hidden but am looking for a quicker way to access it than hitting menu doftkey and selecting notifications. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I use ADW EX.
It has swipe gestures that will do what you want. Pretty amazing app. Other launchers may do this, but I can only confirm ADW EX. It's the best launcher, IN MY OPINION. Others may have another fav (mainly b/c they don't like giving a developer $3).
I use LP Pro..so it's not that I don't want to spend the 3 bucks. More like I put my money on a different racehorse.
What I'm asking is definitely possible, theres already a shortcut it's just in the menu. I just can't figure out how to pull it out and use it.
Edit: I was able to bind tje home button to opening the notification bar...it's not how I wanted to do it but it works. Would still like to see if anyone knows how to create a shortcut for it.

I use LP too. I have one of my swipe gestures on my dock icons set to open notifications.
I've been searching the web alot for an answer on this, but i've found none. Is there a widget i can use that can show my tasks that i have entered into the "task" app, samsungs todo app. I've tried astrids todo app but i didn't like it and i would appreciate if someone knew about any - preferably resizeable - widget that can show my tasks. In advance, thanks for answering!

I'm trying out the new GB release on my x10i and I'm really enjoying it.
Not sure if I'll stay with it because of all the bloatware and CM7 feels faster in general.
What I miss most is the Power Bar in the Notification Bar. It's by far the best and it even allows for fast 2G/3G switching.
Is there an app in the market that compares? The closest thing I've found is the Power Widget which
a) is a widget on the desktop, so I would have to hit the Home Button to use it, then come back to the app I was using; and
b) doesn't toggle between 2G and 3G, but instead sends you to the options menu.
Any suggestions are welcome.

switchpro app.
The app you recommend doesn't seem that different. It also appears as a widget. And the description in the store even says the 2G/3G is also a shortcut.
Am I missing something?

hello peeps,
i'm looking to add an ICE app ( in case of emergency ) to my lockscreen, so that it can be accessed directly by emergency services if they check the phone, (hopefully never needed!) i saw somewhere that this was possible, but i cant find it back, and searches only deliver back locker apps
anyone out there can help me out?
edit- maybe clickable app is a better description, i want to be able to see and access the app from the lock screen.

You can chose the app you want as a shortcut
Hit "Thanks" if I helped you!
If you are using CM7, then it has native feature to add 1 3d party app as a shortcut. Check in Settings> Cyanogenmod settings> Lockscreen

Download Nova launcher and then you can put an icon on your homescreen that let's you get into the multitasking menu with one press.
It will work with TW too.

ive read the description of nova launcher but couldnt find anythinga bout multi tasking. can you explain a bit more?
Not only nova you can have it in apex too, in fact you can simply bring the recent apps menu by making a swipe gesture on home screen

I'm not sure if it works on the gs3, but I use an amazing app on my transformer prime called gesture control.
It basically allows you to define actions by using gestures.
You can define two,three,and four finger gestures.
It really is great. Needs root though.
So you can define a gesture for bringing up the multitasking menu and it works throughout the whole system anywhere.
You don't have to be on the launcher homescreen .

tried apex launcher but couldnt get it to work when im inside an app. ill try gesture control. anyone else have any suggestion for me
anyone can give me suggestion on a great gesture app that can open the recent app from anywhere?
Wave launcher is also cool multitasker. Quite different though.
Also looking for this, something like zephyr for IOS that works inside apps. It allows to close an app just sweeping from bottom to top.

i tried the app and it worked great. Can I ask what the risk of enabling usb debugging is? Im kinda paranoid of what it does, also can you suggest to me what good gesture is best to bring up the recent app list?
What does usb debugging do?
I don't understand why you don't just want to hold home? Plus when on this screen if you swype to left or right the preview is binned.
As for killing apps, Android runs on linux, linux manages ram very well and indeed runs better when you don't keep closing things all the time, it caches processes to save you time and battery when you next need them!
I use a app called "multitask shortcut" which is awesome and it only cost .50 dollars. It doesnt work inside apps though. I wish there was something like Zephyr for Android. It was awesome on the iPhone.
