Import quick settings - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wonder if it would be possible to port quick settings from a Rom like CM to the standard Rom. I remember doing similar things with my Kindle fire (imported jelly bean background picture picker ans htcs live picture picker.)
PS: Don't be offended if this question is stupid somehow, i'm still an android noob, only used to ios modification

the standard rom has quick settings too, on 4.2.2

I'd like to know, too. TrickDroid has great QuickSettings and it would be awesome if it could be flashed to other 4.2.2 sense-based ROMs.
There are a couple of applications on the Play Store that install QuickSettings for you, like Widgetsoid which was my main one when I had the HTC One X.

Yeah, but it's nice to have it in the notification pulldown as well. It's 'quicker' that way.

If you swipe down with 2 fingers you get extended settings.... just as quick!

I know, but I always hold the device with one hand and use my thumb to tap, so it's not very practical for me.

[CONCEPT] Honeycomb-like lockscreen for Android 2.3

Hey guys,
I have designed a new honeycomb-like lockscreen (optimized for tablets in landscape mode and for smartphones - one handed usage in portrait mode), and I'd like to gather some feedback from you
This is not meant to be an exact copy of the original HC lockscreen: my goal is to offer a similar experience while also providing as much informations as possible and offering an option to use it fullscreen, without the statusbar.
[PROJECT STATUS]
Picard666 has done a fantastic job porting this concept to MIUI and now the project has been released at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19222707
CM integration is still pending.
[PICS]
Here are the latest mockups
Landscape (ontop of mad-murdock's CM7 tablet tweaks):

Very nice concept. I would love to see this incorporated onto CM.
I would also like to see this merged into CM7

This looks great! My only suggesting would be to remove the shadowing behind the lockscreen info. I think this would make a for a cleaner lockscreen.
Does anyone else feel the same way?
Do you know where you could get the lockscreen info widget you have?

Do you mean the semi-transparent black background behind the info text?
I think this is a necessary feature as it's a huge plus for elements visibility. No matter what pic you choose as the background, you'll be able to read the infos without any troubles
Looks nice! What is the gesture for unlocking the device? I'm guessing by the small arrows on the lock, you can drag it up, left, or right? Is there a way to just use one direction?
Also, link?
nice work buddy

Atm this is just a concept. If I'll get enough positive feedback I'm confident that with the fundamental help of mad-murdock this will be implemented in a future version of CM
I think that, usability-wise, the best option is to give the user the choice about the drag-to-unlock movement
Looks great, hope to see this merged soon
Love it! Super sexy.
looking amazing nice work
The design is nice, you got my vote!
Huge thumbs up for this idea, I really hope you guys get this put together!
Awesome can't wait for it to be on cm7.1

Would be nice if a dev can make a launcher similar to the acer launcher since i believe its the closest to some features of honeycomb. The options for history is neat and would be nice if you can just use it from the status bar. The major problem i have with this launcher is that it lacks customization and isn't smooth enough.

I agree. And another thing, I don't understand why other launchers don't customize the notification bar like Metro UI and Launcher 7 does; I love that feature a lot because I hate the stock samsung notification bar.

Yes, those are really cool. I like Launcher7, but the dev hasnt updated the free one in a while.

[Q] Your dream Vivid

I want to start a thread to find out what the majority of people want for their Vivid. I think we were close to perfection with some of the GB Sense 3.5 ROM's. Now there is ICS... Take the time to tour other devices XDA threads and current ICS ROM's. There is starting to be some really cool stuff out there. Remember, this is just a wish list some or none of this may be currently possible now or ever. Along with all of the standard root, debloat, de-odexed etc, personally, I would like:
OC
Sense 4.0
Amaze Camera/(or other new boss future camera)
enhanced beats/(other sound tweak)
better battery life
Possible new theme selection (which I am told is not possible yet for Sense 4.0)
Wi/Fi Tether
FYI, I saw a cool non-sense ICS ROM out there that has a really cool sense like lockscreen and a bunch of launcher tweaks. It was for the Desire, I think...
AOSP gingerbread or ICS
I love stock and Sense 3.6.

DesireHD/Inspire - from LordClockan. Lockscreen has 2 fixed along with 2 that are replaceable. Have not been on the DHD forum for almost 2 weeks so not sure what new developments they have but pretty sick! Speed, stability, AND TOYS!
check out some of this coolness!

CM9 is going to be great for sure. However, I'm a bit torn because I really like sense... I'm running CM9 on my nook color and although, the hardware is a bit laggy, the software is nice.

Definitely this.
For starters either Sense 3.0 with ICS or Sense 4.0. Sense 3.5 is horribly ugly and 3.6 is better but the proprietary apps Music, Reader, Watch, etc look MUCH better on Sense 3.0. Just not feeling the bland straight edges and all black.

Better battery life ...
Voice control [like Siri on the iPhone 4s, or better]
Mostly, I'm happy with the stock AT&T vivid [after Rooting & de-bloating, etc] ... I just moved from a mostly stock HTC Rhodium, so Android is a whole new world of fun & learning.
I'm not sure exactly how Siri works on the iphone 4s but you can hold the search button on android devices and it lets you send a text, make a call, look up directions, listen to a certain song/artist/album, send an email, set an alarm, get a map of a place, go to a certain url, make a note to yourself, or google search things. It just doesn't talk to you...

This is from an article... "DiClemente notes that Google is expected to offer something called “Assistant,” as part of the next version of its Android operating system, version 5.0, dubbed “Jelly Bean.” That will be a more advanced voice-recognition search than Google currently offers, with the ability to tap into Gmail, the “Google+” social networking service, etc."
I agree, it would be awesome!
Am running Unlocked, Rooted, OTA, the ICS with 3.6, I like it but would love:
Capychimp's APM from Sensation
more settings on notification bar, like BC's or RCmix3D
a music player that allows sound enhancements over BT
and of course wifi hotspot
I would be happy just with these.
I have already sent Capy a message asking if it was possible to get the APM, and how this old fart can put it on, now to find the rest.
Cheers

[Q] Question for those of you who have tried out several different ROMs...

Which ROM for the HTC One offers the most customization as far as changing UI colors and setting up color themes goes?
Sense/GE/whatever base doesn't really matter, I'll switch to whatever.
Currently using Trickdroid 8.0... its ok, but I'm wondering if there's another ROM that offers more.
Any links would be appreciated
There are many universal themes in the theme section. Look there. Also, this question belonged in the q&a do expect it to be moved. Happy surfing

Dam some people are lazy..all the info you need is in the op's..go lookin
Right now, ViperOne ROM offers most tweaks and mods to play with.. Never tried it, but as far as other devices go, little can stand up to this team on customisations... go have fun.

ViperOne ROM is the Best customizable ROM for HTC One, you can change almost everything
If you're ok with ir not working (yet) and a little bit inferior camera, then revolt, rootbox are extremely customizable. Add in your launcher of choice (nova for me) and you're good to go. Things like halo, pie, ribbons, nav bar, nav ring, hybrid per app settings, lock screen widgets, etc make these, in my opinion, the most customizable roms.

Multitasking Mod?

Is there any mods to use AOSP style multitasking? I would just try an AOSP rom but i'm a bit worried about the bricking problems.

I think there are some ROMs with that as an option, but I'm not sure which ones off the top of my head. Check the OPs.
swapps
theres an App called Swapps that allows you to kind of do the whole multitasking thing, check it out i believe its in the play store and i used it on my E3D and actually liked it a lot and just havent actually re installed it. check it out and let us know what you think.
