Hi, this thread is for everyone to share & discuss their custom widgets made using Queen Beecon Widget or Desktop Command Execution Widget.

Let me start with mine,the Overclock Control Panel QBW widget.
For references check these old posts

This is a new version.Let me just recap what this widget does
  • Display temperature and perform smart overclocking i.e set max cpu clock according to how hot/cool the device is (runs at specified intervals).
  • A stock profile to revert to default kernel, disables smart overclocking.
  • An ideal profile to switch to ideal kernel, disables smart overclocking.
  • Display the current maximum cpu frequency.
  • In temperature(profile 1) auto mode, locking the device changes the limits to 250 500, unlocking makes it clock according to temperature again.
Installation:

Extract the contents of zip to a folder "occp" under MyDocs.
Run the following commands in terminal (may need to be root)
Code:
mv /home/user/MyDocs/occp/overclock /usr/local/bin/
mv /home/user/MyDocs/occp/underclock /usr/local/bin/
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/overclock
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/underclock
mv /home/user/MyDocs/occp/default.png /home/user/MyDocs/.images/queen_beecon_dir/
mv /home/user/MyDocs/occp/profile* /home/user/MyDocs/.images/queen_beecon_dir/
mv /home/user/MyDocs/occp/.OCCP /home/user/.OCCP
Now import the beecon file.Instructions here

You can switch between 3 profiles by clicking them

To use your own profiles go into advanced settings of the widget.
Only edit the first 5 lines:
Name_Profile_1=<actual name eg ideal, ulv etc>
Name_Profile_2=<actual name>
Disp_Name_Profile_2=<what you want to be displayed>
Name_Profile_3=<actual name>
Disp_Name_Profile_3=<what you want to be displayed>

Update and save the widget

Some variations requested by users:
beecon_OCCP_minfreq ........................ beecon_OCCP_min+batt

Another variation by gft2k1 here

If temperature is not displayed, run the following lines in terminal
Code:
sudo gainroot
modprobe bq27x00_battery
echo bq27x00_battery >> /etc/modules
Thanks to sacal for help with testing.
@moepda I created new images for the battery one, so it should look nice
