Hello my comrades. New Milestone owner here!
Well, after a iPhone 3g, i meet the Android with a Samsung GT-i5500. Very nice phone, with fast processor. After 3 months, i buy a Milestone.
Well, one little thing i miss on my Milestone. The Samsung Quickbar, or menu on the notifications bar. If anyone know how to enable or another bar like this one, because, i can enable or disable the wi-fi or sound, for example, from inside a app, dont need to go out, select the power widget, enable or disable, and enter again.
Thanks!

Here, some images to see the Samsung notification menu.

There is a home screen widget that allows you to control WiFi, BlueTooth GPS, Account Sync and Screen Brightness called Power Control. I am not sure that is what you were looking for but worth a look none the less.
 
Hello Mortus. Yes, but for the power control, i need to exit the application or change for home screen. In the fact, using the other phone, i just roll down the notification bar and enable or disable. It's just a question, if there is a way to make this possible on Milestione too. Thanks!

Exteneded controls works well and has a lot of widgit options.
 
There is an application that allows you to put controls in your notification bar, but I cannot recall its name. It was as nice as the samsung one, but good too. If you search for notification bar controls or something like that on AppBrain I am sure you can find it.
 
If you're up to it, the MIUI custom rom has this feature and it's also sweet in every other way. There are still some small kinks but in general everything works.

You need to flash the G.O.T. 2.2.1 rom and then apply the MIUI update through OpenRecovery. I suggest you use the compiled version which includes the English language pack (search the xda-developers forum).

Of course there are other simpler ways too. ;)
