I'm using a Motorola Milestone. This button will sometimes get stuck on an intermediate mode and refuse to respond again. Other than that (and the non-working sync toggle button), I like your widgets. :-) (I will donate when I have a full set working.) I wonder what wifi or bluetooth has to do with gps.

I'm new to my phone so I may be over looking some gesture.

That's why you need to monitor it constantly for changes which will eat battery alot or change status just when you click on it. We don't monitor gps toggle for changes to keep battery charge.

The Bluetooth widget works fine in this respect. I don't know if this is related, but when I toggle the GPS widget, you can see the Bluetooth widget turn off then back on. I'm a developer so I'm guessing you created the GPS widget from the same base of code for another widget (such as the Bluetooth one), but didn't change something before you compiled the code. Thanks for an extremely useful set of apps. If you fix this I'll be more than happy to make a donation towards your efforts.

Most of them work great on Android 2.0 except this one. The toggle just dosn't seem to work. I end up having to use the settings button as shortcut to the screen where i can turn the gps on and off. I can't wait for and update of this that will work on Android 2 and the Droid. Great job on everything else though. Your widgets are great. Most of them work great on Android 2.0 except this one.

Could you make a Caller ID toggle widget? Usually I leave Caller ID on but occasionally I use hide and then forget to turn it back on... A widget on the home page that showed Caller ID status and allowed you to change it before making a call would be really useful and much quicker! Menu settings are: Home > Settings > Additional Call Settings > Caller ID > Show Number = ON Home > Settings > Additional Call Settings > Caller ID > Hide Number = OFF Thanks I really like your toggle widgets.

If we put every of our widget in Launcher it will mess it. When we put our Brightness Level to launcher, we get a lot of letters from peoples asking us to remove it. 2. Actually a lot of reasons can made market to not download apps. Just google for it, and you will see that a lot of people have this problems, they even never installed our gps widget. It just some troubles with market or services. Hello Bob

They look great and overall perform well. Brightness Level was definitely worth a donation from me. But I had a problem with this particular widget. Number 1, the widget never showed up in my "apps drawer," but it was available as a widget from the home screen. I thought that was weird. Number 2, for some reason, I realized after about a week, that this widget was responsible for the android market downloading issues I was experiencing. I couldn't download anything from the market unless I restarted the damn the phone. I uninstalled this widget and voila, download issues solved. Maybe it was just me, but I thought I'd let you know. However, I appreciate all your good work on these widgets. Thanks. These widgets are really nice. They look great and overall perform well. Brightness Level was definitely worth a donation from me.
