I've had no luck finding a power control widget that has a theme like ics. I am not really that good a theming myself, does anyone know if a widget with such options.

i can't tell you i know of a widget but there im using a custom ROM called GummyNex and it has power controls in the status bar, so if you cant find one there are always custom ROMs, plus it stable in all around performance!

You could give Widgetsoid a try. I'm back to using it because I like to have a WiFi AP toggle and a sound toggle. This is all stock widgetsoid with no custom colors. Just unticked "rounded corners" and set the indicator color to "cyan" (although you can put in custom colors if you want to match it exactly). As you can see the color is just a tad lighter and not uniform (like a light is shining on the top middle) but its darn close.
You can customize the buttons and add more than 5 also (somewhere around 8-9 toggles in total if you want). They also have 2x1 and 3x1 widgets, or 1x3, 1x4, and 1x5.
Here's a screenshot of them, widgetsoid on top and stock power control on bottom. Hope this helps.

I really like my first impressions with this new ROM.
1. After the initial install I switched over to launcher pro and lost the transparency
in the notification bar. Is there any way to get this back?
2. I am running the Koush test kernel. I have done quite a bit of research to try and find the perfect kernel combination, but there seems to be a lot of debate. I am obviously looking for speed and battery life coupled with the ability to listen to music while the screen is off without any skipping.
3. This is probably just a matter of time until this happens, but is there an alternate theme that changes all the menu's from white to black?
4. Are there any known battery notification skins that are compatible with MIUI? Looking for a circle battery icon.
Sorry for the list.

Warning: I'm a complete noob... so someone should confirm.
But from what I read on launcher pro's forums, LP doesn't extend the wallpaper through the area where the notification bar is. Is your bar black when you set to completely transparent?

I couldn't even find a setting for transparency of the notification bar.

that changes the dock and not the notification bar
Works great for the A7 for those that want toggles in the notifcation, I have wifi and brightness toggles right now.
I believe there are different themes that can be downloaded as well.

don't overlook the "power control" widget that seems to be coming standard bundled into 2.1/2.2 frameworks. very nice sleek dark widget bar, w/out taking up room saying what the buttons do.
From what I've seen of ICS, it doesn't look like the power bar is part of the notification tray, which is something most oems are doing. Do I honestly need a custom ics rom just to have this essential feature?
huh? the battery indicator is right where its always been...

At a guess, I'd say he's talking about the Power Control widget thing, which, for example, Samsung have incorporated into the notification shade in touchwiz.

There is a shortcut to the settings but no individual toggles. You'll need to do an additional screen press I'm affraid.

I dont understand why they dont include it in the notification bar.....and dont forget that in Nexus we did not have the option to delete homescreens...there are 5 screens by default.

Im sure the cyanogenmod team will fix that rather quickly.
there are apps that add those toggles in the notification bar like elixer2 and widgetsoid if not mistaken

There are, but they're not quite the same.
Nevertheless. Either Cyanogenmod or a modified Framework.apk should be able to fix this easily once you have unlocked/rooted your phone.
There are several good notification toggle apps in the market that behave just like CM7 style. I even have one running on my stock android Honeycomb tablet.
Those Samsung toggles aren't stock thus wont be included, but there will be workarounds pretty quickly.

That is my home screen. As you can see it is manly the wording and I would like to get everything including the settings, phone, sms, and web, and possibly the app drawer to say "settings, phone, sms, web"
If it is possible to put them into the roboto font also, that would be fantastic to match my soft keys
Thank you!
What app are you using I've been trying to do that since my Droid x

i'm using minimalistic text for weather and bobclockd3 for the clock and i'm running GummyNex rom
excuse the silly volume thing - I must have pressed volume down before the power button for the screenshot.
minimalistic text widget 1x1, custom layout, then select static text, then change click on widget launch app to what you call it.
dock removed using adw launcher ex.

You want something like a theme, but instead of just changing the icons into different pictures you want them changed into text. Try asking in the themes section, if you get enough people who want it somebody might make it. The only problem I see is that there are 350,000+ different apps that could be in your app drawer. I don't see anyone having the time to change ALL of those possible icons unless you were paying them a full time salary.
Hi all.
I am using Cm10 and have been for awhile but was wondering what the main differences are between CM and Task?
Can anyone clarify this for me?
Thanks a lot

I find AOKP gives you more choices to customize your device.
Would you mind elaborating on that and giving me some examples
If not I totally understand.
Have a great evening

You have more options to mod the UI:
ROM Control- you can get nav bar like in nexus
change battery icon style, color
disable or custom boot animation
change toggle style and layout
add brightness bar to statusbar
enable face down audio mode when u put phone face down it would go to silent or vibrate
and more
lots of goodies that in cm10 you have to custom install
I find cm10 to be smoother than aokp

Interesting, seems like there are quite a few extras and worth the trial. The only think i see missing from CM10 is the additional 2 shortcuts from the lock screen (not a huge deal for me anyways)..
I'm curious though, how would one use ROM control with nav bar like in nexus (since S3 already has meny and back capacative)? Just wondering how it may be used..
Thanks again

Some people are used to the nav bar, maybe if they're coming from a Galaxy Nexus or something. I don't find it useful at all, because as you said, the S3 already has a menu, back, and home button. Also, you'll lose a bit of screen space by using them. Hope this helps!
