Notificatin bar has nothing in it?

Ok so I am use to having say bluetooth, GPS, Airplane mode, WiFi or things like this listed across the top of the pull down notification bar but this new Maxx doesn't have anything there except for the "clear" button. I mean it will list my notifications just fine but no quick on/ off selections for those items. Can i add them somehow or do I just need to add the toggle widgets to my home screen?

I use the power control widjet to toggle all functions on or off. It is a widjet that come standard on the phone no need to dl anything

Stock Android doesn't have those toggles on the pulldown notification bar. There are apps available that can do this, though. Try Power Controls--not only does it give you an excellent, customizable toggle widget to add to your homescreen, but you can now also add that toggle widget to the notification bar.

I've been using elixer 2. Works the best for me. Has just about every toggle or little widget you could want. I like having the battery temp and time since unplugged show with the usual toggles.

I know what you’re saying because my old Charge had those kind of controls. Not in this though.

I use a third party widget from the Play Store called; Go Switch Widget. Download that and the app; GoWidget Theme-Transparent. You can then put in on your home screen. I position mine at the very bottom. See the attached photo. It's compact, transparent and very customizable. I like it better than the stock power controls and think you will too. Of course I run the replacement launcher Go Launcher EX too but I'm pretty sure you can still use their other apps without running their launcher. However I highly, highly recommend their launcher too

And if you don't like your stock calendar try an app called; aCalender. Very cool stuff. Enjoy.

EDIT: There are a bunch of cool GoWidget Thems available. Skull Gray, Steel Blue, Blood Red. Best part is it's all free.

Wanted to add screenshots for elixer 2 the other day, but got sidetracked. Anyway here is what you can add to your notification drop down. The first is what I use.

The grayed out ones are for the paid version. Everything else here are free!
