[REQ][MOD] Always show expanded notifications - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Was hoping to find a mod that would allow all notifications to be expanded by default in the notification pull-down drawer. I have seen this feature on some AOSP ROMs. Would love to have it in a TW based ROM or rooted stock.

notification bar toggle?

In launcher pro you can set it to hide the notification button. Is there a way to set a toggle or set a gesture to hide the notification bar and unhide the bar? Or even may maybe push a created shortcut and it shows notifications?
You can make shortcuts in LP to actions which can do the same thing.

You can also do the same thing in ADW EX, it comes with some pre-defined shortcuts for actions like that.

Extended Controls on notification bar

Question for anyone using Extended Controls on the Atrix. I want to be able to place Extended Controls in my notification bar, but to also be able to eliminate having the widget on my Home screen. I find that if I remove the widget, it also no longer shows up when I bring the notification area down and tap on the EC. Anyone know how to do this, or is it necessary to have the widget on the Home screen, in which case, it seems like a waste of time to put it in the Notification Bar.
Thanks.
I'm not sure about EC, but if you use Widgetsoid you can add them to the notification bar and then set the widget that's on the homescreen to invisible, so that it's ONLY in the notification bar...I believe. There's a free widgetsoid, so you could always try that out!

I'll try it out. Thanks for the suggestion!
Another work around for not having buttons on the notification bar is if you use
swipePad + mySettings
just swipe on the corners to mySettings and change your settings through there. IMO best way.

Sounds like a novel approach. I'll try that too. Thanks!
Widgetsoid blows because..
if you click on a toggle it is not truly a toggle(in notification area) because it launches another toggle window and you cannot toggle directly from notification area

That's true. I guess it depends on the phone. I'm trying the Swipe Pad + My Settings suggestion and finding that I'm liking those apps a lot. The Swipe Pad seems to add a lot of additional functionality. Thanks.

That's true. If EC does it better while still hiding the home screen widget, then by all means use that! Just offering other ideas in case it doesn't.
May not be what you're looking for/more work than you want to do, but CM7 pre beta2 has notification bar controls built in with a bevy of other new features that make day to day use more convenient. I've been using it as my daily driver since pre beta 1 was posted and love it. Minus the few addressed issues that are being worked on now it's the best rom available IMHO.

Showing notification bar shifts everything

When I swipe down to view the notification bar, everything shifts. The whole page shrinks and adds black bars to the side. On the video I watched about Themer, when he swiped down the notification bar smoothly came down ontop of the page. Not sure if I am missing a setting or if that is just how it is.
Screenshot would be nice

In the first image everything is fine.
Second image I swiped down to show notification bar and everything shifts and it adds black bars to the side.
Third image is when I hide the notification bar and somethings are still shifted.
We're working on themes that have the notification bar built in. Right now most of them hide it for a clean look, but you can gesture down to open it temporarily, and gesture up to hide it again

That is what I am doing. But in doing the gesture down to show the notification bar, it shifts the items on the page. I like that it is hidden and the gesture down and up to show/hide it. Just hoping it was a bit smoother and just overlapping on the page instead of shifting everything.

Looking at your screenshots, it looks like you have a modified notification bar. On stock devices, when you gesture down, the notification bar "floats" on top of the theme briefly and does not mess up the alignment. Try restoring your notification bar to stock configuration and you might have better results.

I had a mod for the status bar and I got rid of it and it works fine. Thanks!

Is it possible to bring down the notifications shade with a gesture, if the bar is hidden?
I've got a two finger swipe set for that, but it only works if the bar is not hidden.

How did you get it to work? I can't seem to find that action.
Swipe down to display the notification bar

In order to find the gestures, go into: Themer Settings > Themer > Gestures. From here you can assign a gesture, for example swipe down to show the notification bar, or swipe up to hide it. Make sure you have the latest update, as this includes gesture support.
If you go into Themer Settings > Advanced > Desktop, you can whether to display the notification bar or to hide it.
Hope this helps
What's happening in v1.8 . Can we get any sneak peeks?

i'd like to second this - not just to show or hide the notification bar, but a gesture to fully pull down the notification shade. For example other launchers let me swipe down anywhere on the screen to bring down the notification shade, but with themer i must pull down from the top of the screen. Once you get used to swiping down from anywhere, you really miss it
@ThemerSupport I love this app and as you can see in the screen shots and .zip section I've been making some matching lock screens using uccw and widget locker.
What I would like is to be able to use the everything widget in widget locker for the lock screen but cant. But can use the other themer widgets please can you fix or add. So I can use themer and widget locker together
Thanks
all the best

You can enable finger sensor gestures which will allow you to use the fingerprint scanner to expand the notification bar by swiping down.
To enable go to settings- Advanced features - finger sensor gestures
i dont use the samsung launcher, but i thing there is an option in the settings to pull down the notification from anywhere
