You mean replace a vamera module? That's just wayyyy impossible!!! Can you imagine the incompatabilities???

I'm a fan of the battery gauge style used by batti / vistahide / etc and would like to run a similar display on my XP laptop. Frequently I'm running an app in full screen, and loose track of batter status (as displayed by a widgit / in the taskbar / etc). I'd really like a gauge that's always on top, and consumes a few pixels accross the top of the screen to show me what I want to know.
Any ideas?
ooo that does sound like a good idea. who made vistahide anyway?
Try "Notebook Hardware Control (NHC)", it's simple to use, require small resources, but powerfull enough..
What is Notebook Hardware Control (NHC)
With Notebook Hardware Control you can easily control the hardware components of your Notebook
Notebook Hardware Control helps you to:
- control the hardware and system power management
- customize the notebook (open source ACPI Control System)
- prolong the battery lifetime
- cool down the system and reduce power consumption
- monitor the hardware to avoid system failure
- make your notebook quiet
Easy to use, friendly program surface and for free
NHC isn't only very powerful; it has a friendly program surface, it's easy to use and free for private use. A large number of users appreciate these advantages and NHC becomes one of the leading programs to control the power and hardware of modern notebooks.

This does a whole lot more than just battery status but it may be worth a look. Doesn't install to the top of the screen as such but can be configured to stay on top wherever you put it.

just rainmeter. do not search for ****ty apps.
This is not the official site but i cannot remember where i got it now, i feel one of the more useful ones in the realms of the net

Thanks chris10230. This isn't exactly what I had in mind (displays on the side not the top like vistabar/batti) but it gets the job done.
The other solutions would probably work too, but I suspect at a higher resource cost.
Thanks to everyone that contributed
Elegant solution for Vista/Win 7
Although it does not help me directly, since I'm running XP, this is a neat solution that uses cursor modification and a few other display mechanisms to get the job done

Hi guys,
I was thinking about the possibility to make (for example) the home button of the OPO on the bottom blink for notifications in stead of the notification led at the top.
Does someone know an app that can make this happen?
Sorry if this question is already asked elsewhere but I didn't find it up till now.
Grtz
It's more than possible, it's called back-light notifications (BLN) search the playstore and you should see some apps. Though I don't understand why you'd want it, seeing how there's a notification led (that'd consume less battery), but I suppose to each their own?
Edit: Sorry had a brainfart, and forgot to mention you most likely need a kernel which supports BLN and to my knowledge no one has included it, since it's a bit redundant, and taxes the cpu and impacts battery life for no reason. It's extremely useful on phones without a notification led, and more common. But I suppose it can be easily ported to the 1+ if there's an oppo find7a kernel that supports it, if you wanted to tackle it.
Edit 2: Looked around, and apparently an app called 'LightFlow' might not need a custom kernel (?) Worth checking out.

Just wanted to thank you for helping someone out. You are awesome ?

I like the idea. But unless the capacitive buttons are bright enough to actually see... I just can't see this working all that well. Really wish the buttons were brighter so that this would be possible.

WARNING: This might seem like a really noob question. It probably is.
The other day, when I was optimizing a chinese phone (it's system was the messiest thing I've ever seen), I ran into an issue.
For the sake of example, imagine you have a module that lets you choose your statusbar color and a module with loads of useful features but alas, one of them is coloring the statusbar red (can't be disabled except by disabling the module).
I'm guessing there's some sort of thing as module priority, be it load/hook order or something else (I'm not a module developer). Is there any way (modding apks of the modules?) I can adjust these priorities myself?
And to provoke module developers, is it possible for a module to achieve this?

Rovo has said that there is no way to prioritize one module over another...
The way to deal with that is to ask module developers to put in switches to turn off portions of the module...

This is exactly my example to explain why module priorities are not needed. The problem is that what you mentioned last - the module isn't flexible enough to let you disable its features seperately. The solution would be to ask the module developer to implement such a setting, where the module wouldn't touch the statusbar color at all (not even setting it to the assume standard black). There are different ways to change the statusbar color, and only in some cases, the module which is executed last will win. If the modules use different ways to change it, there's a good chance that one of them will win no matter whether it can do its changes first or last.
I remember only one use-case where higher priority is the only way to achieve the goal, and that was a module hooking other modules/Xposed itself. Apart from that, I have only heard about cases like you described, where priority handling is only a workaround that works only sometimes. I don't want to encourage such behavior by offering a feature that only experts would understand.

At the moment, I am using something like this...
afterHookedMethod
if (isEnabled) changeSomething()
Is this scheme OK?
or should I hook something only if it is enabled:
if (isEnabled) findAndHookMethod...
?

Amen.
This is one of the things I miss the most since I left OOS. Is there a way a magisk module can implement this?
Are you talking about the extended screenshot feature that will allow you to take a screenshot that extends all the way down a page?
I'm thinking of rooting my Pixel 6, but before starting, I'd like to know if I'll be able to solve my issues:
Is there a magisk module for a better one-handed-mode experience? Sony and Samsung's design, where it resizes the whole display, is much better than the Pixel's implementation, where it just pulls down the top of the screen.
Is there a module to enable face unlock?
