[Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

This app alters the status menu on your N9. It does not require inception or open mode. Simply enable third party apps to be installed (Settings>Applications>Install.) and you're good to go.

Note: Upon install, the standard Bluetooth and availability "widgets" will be removed from the status menu, and replaced with the ones in this package. However, when you uninstall, they will be replaced.

What does it add?
Status Menu Extensions alters several elements of the current status menu. A brightness bar is added, sticking to the same visual theme as the Volume Bar. Also, it replaces the availability tab, with Harmattan icons for each of the accounts (with IM capabilities) you have enabled. Finally, there are also several toggles which are added. The order of these toggles can be re-arranged via Settings>Applications, as well as choosing which to enable/disable. To rearrange, tap once (grey square appears) and choose which toggle to swap position with. To enable/disable, long press the icon

Toggles Currently Present:

• Bluetooth. short press switches the operation mode is switched off / on. long press launches the setup menu bluetooth
• Cellular - Toggles network 2g/3g/dual
• Flashlight - Enables / disables the LED flash camera.
• GSM- Enables / disables the mobile network.
• Power Saver Mode - Switches the power saving mode (off / auto / on)
• Brightness - Toggles the display brightness between minimum, average (middle) and maximum.
• USB Mode - Toggles between "is charging only mode", "sync & connect", "mass storage" and "sdk mode". When connected to a PC, you will not be asked to make a selection.
• Reboot - Reboots the phone. Press and hold for 2 seconds to reboot.
• BG Connections - Switches the mode of background connections (on / off)
• - Glol. - Switches the screen orientation Auto / Landscape / Portrait

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Damn!
You did a great job mate!

Working flawlessly, must installed mod!

Feedback:
- After rearrange, some widgets missing and chaos, though resolved with reboot.
- Need a moment after reboot for status menu to show up, waiting in silently afraid.
- Update FB and Twitter status next maybe? ;)

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Works great except for the after re-arrangement chaos just like he said ^
Thanks :)

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

And also, i dont understand how the orientation toggle works. Choosing auto, but it can't change to landscape; choosing landscape, just available in the tasking app, exit the app, back to portrait.

update: ahh...it's just for app, not the homescreen ;)

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Ah dude, this is brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Means I can uninstall a few apps I use to change settings.

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Why is this not posted by CODeRUS himself?

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Yeah really great work @coderus, works very well, have only been testing shortly.

Will post if issues appear.

Regards Dousan...

e: will you implement your battery status to this mod when finished @mfarotusino?

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Hi
Can you say me, how uninstall unrestricted-ui by MAG or restore original unrestricted-ui ?

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

in terminal as root type:
apt-get install system-ui* --reinstall

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Afaik just do it from your app manager and uninstall the packages related to unrestricted ui + plugins.

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Is there a way to disable/enable the extensions? I know I'm never going to use some of those...

But overall, very nice!

EDIT: nevermind, I saw it... I missed it on the instructions! :P

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Amazing mod.. love this

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Thx for your answers !

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

v0.0.5.1 included also to N9QT v8.5, and version 0.0.5.3 will be included in v8.6 ;)

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Thanks a million times... You did a great job setting this up for us...it works great... Thanks again

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

I noticed that my accounts are no longer being set to available. I have to manually click google talk and sky buttons each time I lose/change connections.

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

This package has to be installed the normal way (i.e. by double clicking the icon on the device) ??????

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Awesome MOD , but still need Facebook & Twitter support :) That would be great if we can use it with quick status updater.

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

I'm agree with him ^ with Face and Twitter will be more amazing, but thanks

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Thanks!

The icons and the interface are very nicely done. Thank you

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Is the music control widget forgotten or is planned for the future updates???

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

reboot button is flashing red and white very fast and doesn't work .

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Same here on version 0.0.5.4...
Waiting for fix from Coderus...

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

please help...


EDIT:
If somebody else has this problem here are the steps:

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Gotta say, I am absolutely loving this Coderus vs. MAG war over the status menu. So much anger.

For my part, as a single-account IM user the Harmattan icon is actually less desirable than the original availability icon + text combo; creates too much blank space. It would be nice to see an option to integrate presence controls in with the other toggles.

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Hi there, lovely app!

To be consistent with the Nokia style guidelines, could you please rename the settings menu item

FROM: Status Menu Extensions
TO: Status menu

Or, please tell me how I can edit the menu text myself.

Thanks,
Tom

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

WHY oh WHY dont MAG, coderus, etc. JOIN FORCES on the status menu project?????

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

Because Coderus doesn't know how to use github.

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

can we not speculate on the reasons for their war... Let them resolve their differences instead of putting it all out here in the open and have voyeurs enjoying the show...

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
 

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So much! Thank you.

Re: [Announce] Status Menu Extension for N9
