Sure, I can guide you through the process. Since you mentioned both Tasker and MacroDroid, I’ll outline the process for each.
-
Tasker:
-
In Tasker, you would first need to create a new task. You can do this by going to the “Tasks” tab and clicking the “+” button.
-
Then, give your task a name. Something like “Open Internet Connectivity Panel” might be appropriate.
-
In your new task, you’ll need to add an action. To do this, click the “+” button inside your task.
-
You want to use the “Send Intent” action. This can be found under the “System” category.
-
In the “Action” field of the “Send Intent” action, you would put “android.settings.WIRELESS_SETTINGS”. This is the intent that opens the wireless & networks settings page, which includes the internet connectivity settings.
-
You can leave the other fields blank, as they are not needed for this intent.
-
Finally, you can link this task to a shortcut on your home screen by long pressing on an empty space on your home screen, selecting “Widgets”, and then finding the “Task Shortcut” widget from Tasker.
-
-
MacroDroid:
-
In MacroDroid, you would start by creating a new macro. This can be done from the main screen by clicking the “+” button.
-
For the trigger, you can select “Shortcut Launched”, and then give your shortcut a name.
-
For the action, you want to use the “Launch Activity” action. This can be found under the “Applications” category.
-
In the “Launch Activity” action, you need to find the settings app, and then find the activity that corresponds to the internet connectivity settings. This might be something like “com.android.settings.Settings$WirelessSettingsActivity”, but it can vary between devices.
-
Once you have set up the action, you can save your macro. It will automatically create a shortcut on your home screen that triggers the macro when clicked.
-
I hope this helps! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.
I see, you’re interested in a more comprehensive system-wide Glass UI look and feel. This is a bit more complex than just changing the launcher because it involves modifying the user interface elements of many different system apps and settings, not just the home screen.
While Android doesn’t offer this kind of aesthetic out of the box, it’s not impossible to achieve. However, it will require more extensive modifications to your device, typically in the form of a custom ROM or a system-wide theme. Here’s a little more detail on these options:
System-wide Themes: Some Android manufacturers (like Samsung and OnePlus) offer built-in theme engines in their versions of Android that allow you to change the appearance of the system UI extensively. If a theme exists that provides the Glass UI look you’re after, this could be an option. However, the availability of such themes may vary.
Substratum Theme Engine: The Substratum Theme Engine is a third-party app that can theme the entire system UI on a rooted Android device. It’s more powerful than most built-in theme engines, but it requires more technical knowledge to use and comes with some risk. It’s important to note that it requires root access, which means unlocking your device’s bootloader and potentially voiding its warranty.
Custom ROMs: Custom ROMs replace your device’s entire operating system with a customized version of Android. Some of these ROMs may offer a glass-like UI, or they may support more extensive customization options than the default Android OS. However, installing a custom ROM requires a good understanding of Android, and is generally recommended for advanced users. It also involves unlocking the bootloader, which could potentially void your warranty.
Please note that while these modifications can help achieve the Glass UI aesthetic you’re after, they come with risks and should only be attempted if you’re comfortable with potentially voiding your warranty and dealing with any issues that may arise. Always ensure that you understand the steps involved and the potential risks before modifying your device.
