[Q] Is there a way to have recently used apps show in the notification area?

I know that i can click and hold the home button to show recently used/running apps but I would prefer to just drag down the statusbar and see 8 icons of recently used apps.
I have tried different apps from market but most of them show a button that mimics holding down the home button instead of showing icons directly in the notifications area.
Any help with this would be appreciated. Thanks!

Get rooted and install custom rom and then use jkay settings! Done!
Hit thanks if it helped :-D

Easier options is to have one if these apps installed

Get rooted √
Install custom rom √ DarkyRom
Use jkay settings! X This one I think refers to the Deluxe Settings which I have but can't seem to find the option I'm looking for. Could you please point me to it? Thanks!

Tried both but like I said in the original post. I'd like it to show icons of recently used apps horizontally. The second one is a full status barcreplacement and I don't want that. Appreciate your help

Use an HTC device? I'm not sure, but check out UOT Kitchen and see if they have that option. Basically you build your own status bar from scratch. I haven't heard any methods of using recently used apps in the Notification bar except for HTC.

UOT Kitchen doesn't seem to have this option.
About HTC, can't we have that implementation as an app? I would love something similar. thank you for the contribution!

Quest continues

I miss this too. I just don't understand why this isn't an app all ready?

Change Status Bar with STOCK-Roms

Hey guys,
for some hours I flashed a STOCK-Rom.
Now i want to change the buttons from the status bar.
so i need a button with mobile data (activate, deactivate) and don´t need GPS and so on.
is there a mod to change this or an app for this?
i know, with UOT kitchen I can change lots of things, but not the function from buttons

There is not an easy way to do it, you must edit framework-res.apk. But you can go to google store and search for notification toggle, there is plenty of apps which support adding your custom picked options in widget form and show the widget in notification area. And then, there is a mod (for stock) which removes original toogle bar, which lets just with your custom one. Try it here . It says that it support V20O, so it should work on v20q also, but I haven`t tried it.
Edit1: Cyanogenmod let˙s you to change toggles directly on the phone.
Edit2: I saw that you are discussing about it in dev section in dj rom... Why did you even post here then...

its a interest question,you now the way in Framework-res.apk
i thing its somewhere in a xml

In the LG P970 (Black), there isn't a Rotation toggle but a Data toggle... maybe you can look into XML of the Black and can compare with our XML

you can use icons from lg p500 android v20e for status bar data icons
PS: search on 4pda.ru for the rom its called SUNFIRE
i hope i helped you

[Q] Statusbar tweak

Greetings,
Does anyone know of any way to get a drawable statusbar when running an application in fullscreen? I really do miss this feature from any Samsung roms.
I have found Smart Statusbar, but I'd rather not have a service eating up my ram for something so trivial, therefore does anyone know of any build.prop tweak/custom rom/xposed module/anything else that would add this feature?
Thanks.

gravity box I guess or any other systemui changing module (xposed)

Use Xblast tool or Gravity Box To mod the systemUI

I probably am a total moron, but I don't seem to be able to find anything in gravitybox that is related to this. Have any of you actually done this using it? If so, where do I find this setting?

I think theres a small app you can install off playstore which pulls down the notification bar, if your on 4.3, its not really needed as the recent apps window now has the status bar visible.

Help customize my Lockscreen

Hey Guys,
can anyone help me to get rid of the clock on the lockscreen? I don't want a big ass clock there!!! just a regular clock on the statusbar would be good enough. I just wanna have the Lockscreen to my wallaper.
For any help/advice/tips on how to achieve this I would be very grateful. I hope I don't have to decomplie systemui or anything.... maybe thru the new themes function? I saw they can change the font color and so on... maybe setting it to 100% transparency?
with help of a xposed module called Costum Text I was able to get rid of the text at the bottom saying something like swipe to unlock! U know my s6 is set to german and in german the swipe to unlock text is like 2 full sentences!!! Who needs that? like WTF? as if someone after using his phone for 5 minutes hasn't already figured out how to unlock his phone!!! am i the only one who thinks that about the text @ the bottom?

Haha, luckily for you. I created a small app using tasker to disable the wallpaper and clock and enable it if like. but you need root.
Just unzip the file and install the apk within.
EDIT: Please explain more on how to use custom text to disable " swipe screen to unlock "?

So u just install costum text and choose the app u want to change the text for in this case it's systemui. There u will be presented with bubbles where u can put in the original text that u want to change. Fox example u put in Swipe screen to unlock it has to be 1:1 like Swipe not swipe. And then u just put a blank space in the new text field if u want it to disappear, otherwise u can also put anything u want. Everything to take effect u click on the three dots in the right top corner and select Relaunch App and that's it! I also got rid of plug in text.....

I've read before that phone is there by law, but I hoped it was not for the international.
Thanks for the "ex-camera" link anyway. It is a start and I'll give it a try first thing tommorow.

Wow so glad I opened this thread! So the only thing that's left is the Phone Icon but i think that can be solved by setting the transparency to 100% of that Icon which should be in systemui or the systemui theme apk... I will have a look at this in few days I need access to a windows machine and I hope samsung uses .png's and not this qmg shiz.... the shortcut will be still intact but at least not visible which is still good enough for me.

Hahaha, very good idea. I hope you succeed because i use themes on my phone. And previously lollipop v5.0.2 I was able to take out the qmg from the theme\lock-1\base.apk and convert to png, make it transparent and put back the png into the apk without decompiling. That work, camera and ecall was transparent. Now if i try it with the new themes on lollipop 5.1.1 the apk fails toe work and the default theme is loaded.
So yes, if you can change the systemui for lock screen then it would be superb..:good:
But i am glad to help.
