I use Beautiful Widgets...and Have no use for the BlueTooth Widget. So I as wondering if there was a way I could remap that toggle to toggle the sync? Since it seems that root access is required to touch that.
Better off using bettercut to make the shortcut because of time/skill level required to do so and legal implication of disassembling a paid application.

I have tried to make this myself but im not the best at c# I was hoping someone would like to write a small app that disables and enables the touch panel without using the gsensor or light sensor or nav sensor. i want to use this with a mort script so it would launch the app to disable touch panel then run the rest of the script then launch the app to enable it. i don't care if its two separate apps. if someone can help i would appreciate it so much. thanks

I tried this out today. Its claim is to "[d]isable apps and remove them from the launcher, without uninstalling them. Stow away apps you rarely use, or hide built-in apps you never use.." Also good for T-Mo US Rom root users to hide that useless Amazon MP3s app.
I tested it out by hiding (the app uses the term 'stowing') a Better Keyboard Skin shortcut, a widget shortcut and normal application.
The App Vault app does have an issue with requesting root permission, it requires it for stowing/unstowing each app (and multiple times for each app) it adjusts instead of having a global permission. Think of it as Vista's UAC for Android, compared to Windows 7's.
Stowing a Better Keyboard skin shortcut does not change any of your Better Keyboard settings. If you had that skin selected, it is still in use. However, you cannot reselect that skin in the app's skin manager anymore. The shortcut was successfully hidden from the launcher.
Stowing a Widget shortcut (I used Battery Status) was less successful than the Better Keyboard Skin. The widget remained on the home screen, but it no longer updated. I could also add the widget to my home screen still, so I did, but it remained at 0%, unable to update to the real percentage. The shortcut was successfully hidden from the launcher, however.
Stowing a normal application (I used the Babbler Facebook app) worked the same as uninstalling the app. Its home screen shortcut turned into the default APK icon and was unable to launch. It's widget remained on the selection screen for widgets, but like the Battery Status widget, it would not update. And like the others, the shortcut was hidden from the launcher.
Overall, it seems the vault is useful when hiding applications you don't use (especially stock apps), but not widgets or commonly used applications. As the Better Keyboard Skin was the only app that was successful in stowing and still being usable, and caused the least upset to me, I think I'll refund the application.
I hope someone can find a better use for it than I can.

hmm i wonder if i put something like set cpu or autostarts or something that you only configure once and then dont touch if the configurations will stay .. going to try it out
Why wouldn't you just use the modified launcher, you have root already, CM has it as default along with some others.
Caution when using this application.
DO NOT HIDE THE USER PERMISSIONS APPLICATION
if you do this, the app WILL become unusable and you will not be able to access root permissions in any way. the app should really be disabled from being hidden from the get go just to be on the safe side

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Even easier would be to just eliminate the "press here to start tethering" screen -- just activate it and self terminate.
No need to go to the extreme of making a memory munching widget when all you need is a button!
the widget is a good idea, but would be memory consuming, i prefer a simple option in settings or spare parts, you can always use any cut to create a shortcut to the homescreen from it. But I got the app on home screen so its really not much trouble just few extra clicks....automatic enable/disable, or one button access would be nice though
thank you, i will try better cut...
better cut doesn't seem to have to option
Wondering if some of the bright developers around here would be interested in creating a configurable wiget to make things like turning WiFi on or off a one click operation - vs scrolling to settings, clicking to open it, clicking Wireless Networking, clicking WiFi to turn it on or off. Same thing for turning on/off 3G/4G, etc.
Even having a one click shortcut that would take you automatically to the Wireless Networking configuration screen would be a big improvement. Kind of like the ability to send a shortcut from the Wireless Networking Utility in Control Panel to the desktop in Windows.
Or is there already something out there to do this?
Try widgetsoid.. thats what I use on my Streak..it pretty nifty, you can add a lot of shortcut settings on the widgets.
Android also has a shortcut for indivual settings. Just add shortcuts>select shortcuts>settings>pick settings you want to appear on your screen..
One thank you point for ramtix...
Zeam Launcher does a lot of what I wanted, but I'm still willing to try wigetsoid...
