Android 1-Click Shortcuts using SL4A

Sometimes it takes 3-4 clicks to get to our often used settings page on Android phone, such as Mobile Network Settings (Settings - Wireless and networks - Mobile Networks). With SL4A , it's really easy to create a 1-click shortcut on the Home screen. 1. Create new script in SL4A, copy one of the following codes Shortcut to Mobile Network Settings (Use packet data, 2G/3G) droid = android.Android() droid.startActivity('',None,None,None,False,'com.android.phone','com.android.phone.Settings') Shortcut to Mobile AP/Tethering Settings droid = android.Android() droid.startActivity('',None,None,None,False,'com.android.settings','com.android.settings.TetherSettings') 2. Long press on Home Screen, choose Shortcut, choose Scripts, select the script you wrote on Step 1 3. Done :)
