[Q] Widget that *actually* switches 2G/3G in SenseUI - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Most widgets I've seen only take you to the option screen where you can enable/disable. Is there any that will *actually* switch 2G/3G in SenseUI?
I know there was one built into one of Rodriguez's ROM I tried a little while ago that did this but I can't locate one for SenseUI.

Are you sure that this doesn't just take you to set Network mode screen? I tried v1.4 and that's all it did.

I may be wrong, but it looks just like the power widget from CM.
Worth a try, and you can always go for a refund...
...or install CM, because I know that works! ;-)

Yeah but how do I get the Power Widget that works in CM to work in MicroMods's Sense?

To make anything switch 2G/3G, it needs SYSTEM permissions, not ROOT. Which means - it has to be signed with the same key as the ROM itself, which means that it has to be compiled with the ROM, which is kinda impossible with Sense (excluding kernel, which I believe isn't sufficient).

Power control

I'm coming from the cdma hero running cm6, and darch and the cm team modified the power management widget so you can toggle data on and off. Not that it's a huge deal, but I'm not a fan of having to go into settings every time to enable/disable my data. Any help? Thoughts? Cm6 would destroy on this phone.

Certainly. Go to Settings -> Cyanogen Mod Settings -> User Interface -> Widget Buttons, and then tick "Toggle Mobiledata".
EDIT: I just reread your post - this doesn't change the widget, but does change the power control in the notification dropdown. So kind of a solution?
Let me rephrase, I WAS running cm on my hero, but now I have the optimus s. I want to be able to turn off evdo/3g from the power control widget. Phone is root but still on stock rom. No other way except going into Settings/wireless and networks/ mobile networks/ and then toggle 3g on/off from there. Should see if darch and the guys could do cm6 for the optimus.

Oh, I apologise for my misread. To the best of my knowledge, toggling mobiledata via a widget isn't possible without a modification made to the ROM that most stock roms wouldn't have.
I'm not 100% sure on this though sorry.
I believe you are correct sir. It's too bad they don't put it in. hopefully they include it in gingerbread. Need some cyanogen mod love for this phone.

Disable HTC Lock screen?

How do you disable it?
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
Download no lock from market.
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA Premium App
Thanks, but I basically just want the stock Android lock, I don't want to get rid of it completely
use this one. flash it in recovery. at least it behaves like you wanted to but i prefer sound on/vibrate on rather sound on/sound off slider.
If i'm not mistaken, u should remove the stock alarm(u can't turn it off if the alarm goes on). I can't remember whether DeskClock or something else....
thanks for the file

Stock ICS Lockscreen customization

I am running the Blitz ROM, and none of my shortcuts on the stock ICS lockscreen show up. I have flashed many roms and none of them show up on the lockscreen, is there something i am doing wrong?
I am S-ON and rooted lol
--TeckTeck
(If i am in the wrong place with this thread feel free to move it accordingly, just PM me the details on that)
Do they show up when ur not locked ?
The shortcuts I want to use show up on my home screen yes, but when I hit the power button and cycle the screen back to being locked there is nothing. I am not sure if it has something to do with the tweaks of the rom.
I tried enabling and disabling through leedroid tweaks and got nothing
--TeckTeck
I wonder if something in the Rom didn't flash right I've never seen that but there's a lot I've not seen , maybe try and reflash the Rom. Not sure man maybe someone can help .

Music lockscreen issue

I've decided to use the music lockscreen as it allows instant access to my music when getting in the car etc.
However, earlier today it decided to freak out - I'd wake the phone up, the screen would come on then go out and repeat this cycle for a while until defaulting to the standard lockscreen.
However, in the options, music lockscreen was still selected. Turns out none of the specialist lockscreens are now working. All i can ise is either default or no lockscreen.
Any ideas for a cause/solution?

might be as simple as turning the phone off an back on
I went to turn it off and back on but thought I'd check it again before doing so. It was fine, guess the phone just had a silly moment!

You can't get rid of the time and weather info on the lockscreen by changing them in settings, ViperROM is the only ROM that even has a Mod in it to allow you to hide the lockscreen weather and clock.
That's not the problem. But there is only the weather and clock, even if I choose music (no music control) productivity (still the cloud an clock only) and pictures don't show either

Widget Locker Lockscreen

Hey all ....
I am having some extremely frustrating problems with Widget Locker Lockscreen here on my HTC One.
First, I can't seem to get the homehelper to work correctly as it doesn't even look like its saving my settings when I switch launchers or anything for testing. I don't need a PIN or security on my phone as deep as setting that, I just don't want the home button to take me to the home screen when on the lockscreen. GO locker did this beautifully for me, and didn't have the second issue below.
Second, when it does work for like 10 seconds, I get an annoying flicker of it trying to paint the homescreen then going back to the lockscreen.
Anyone else experiencing any of these issues or know how to fix them? I have emailed the created of WL a couple of times stating the problems I was having within the app and got nothing back, so its time to ask the XDA Community.
Thanks
I experienced the same problems as you. It was an amazing app when it was on my Nexus one, still is used. But on the Htc One its pretty lackluster. I know I have nothing to contribute but I just uninstalled it...

Your HTC One is running ARHD as well (well from your signature it says it is) ... I am on 11.5.
Can someone on a different ROM check to see if they are having these issues as well? I know a lot of people are using the app so someone on a different ROM shouldnt be hard to find

Hey, I'm on fully converted GE. I use nova/widgetlocker religiously. Unfortunately, I have the same problems when I try to use homehelper. Its like an inefficient workaround, shows the "redraw" of home but tries to maintain WL. This isn't a working solution. I've disabled it and for the time being, I've just tried to ignore the home button while lock screen. Its always just power button or swipe (if i'm using custom kernel) then unlock using lockscreen. I've looked for other lockscreen alternatives but in terms of features, nothing compares to WL. I hope the devs bring out an update in the near future to address these issues.

Awesome. Thanks for the update. I have been extremely frustrated with this app but nothing compares to the customizing that can be done with it. Lets hope for a speedy update to fix this or hopefully the devs actually come on XDA and see this thread starting and address it
I was able to get rid of the flicker by turning on "HomeHelper ondemand via root" in Advanced > Root Helper (in addition to enabling HopeHelper). I'm currently on TrickDroid 8.00 and WidgetLocker 2.4beta8.

Turned on HomeHelper ondemand via root .... it stopped the home button bypass of the lockscreen but I still have the flicker
Crazy observation ....
I cleared all my settings, defaults, etc this morning before I posted about the homehelper with root .... and still had the flicker
Just playing around with my phone now I changed my lockscreen to have an alternate background from my home screen .... no more flicker on my device ...
Do you guys have alternate backgrounds? If not, can you try switch to one and see if you still get the flicker?

TrickDroid, as posted above, seems to not have any issues either. Is there anyone else on TrickDroid or ViperRom that has had issues?
I can't see why it would be limited to ARHD and GE Roms on the One, but since I don't know much about how these are put together, I guess anything is possible.
Also to note, after my change yesterday, I haven't had an issue since.
just installed app again after update. works like a charm and the dashclock is in "fullscreen" unlike when it was on the sense lockscreen!

any news?
do you guys know any way to use the default lockscreen when you get a call?
the only two possibilities that I found is to either have no lockscreen or you don't see who's calling you (because you need to unlock widget locker first) - both not ideal if you ask me

Well I dunno about you. But I am not having any issue for when someone calls me. but then again I didn't put any sort of security on my phone.
I just have Widget Locker Lockscreen enabled. someone calls me goes straight to answer/decline for me
Using default lockscreen, there is this cool feature (widget?) that shows controls and info of music that is currently playing, no matter what is the player you are using (I use both Spotify and Poweramp). Is there similar widget available that could be used with Widget Locker? I have found some that has support for Poweramp, but for spotify none. I'd rather not add both player's own widget to Widget Locker, it would be just spending space (and Spotify's widget is quite ugly).

me too, but that's the problem: you don't have to swipe up to answer or decline the call, the phone is unlocked so you only have to tap answer or decline... this may cause you to accept/decline calls by accident
I would like to have the default incoming call screen where you have to swipe up to accept the call together with widget locker, but I didn't find a way yet to achieve that
