I have both the Palm cover to mute and hand swipe for screen shot enabled and neither one are working. My coworker also has a note 2 and his isn't working either. I checked the sensors with the diagnostic menu and all appear to be working. Any ideas? Thanks

I noticed it as well when I returned to stock. I turned the settings on and it didn't work for a couple days. Now all the sudden it's working flawlessly. Dunno if it was rebooting the phone or a battery pull or the thing has a mind of its own!
I just got my phone yesterday and have not rooted it or modified it at all

I thought Palm swipe wasn't working but turns out the edge of your hand actually has to drag across the screen. Maybe you already knew that though.
Haven't tried the cover to mute. Will report back.
Edit. I love multiview. Tested the flip to mute and it works in the test for an incoming call but maybe it doesn't mute system wide just for particular apps? Ditto for Palm cover to mute

Pretty certain mine is the ability to swipe the notification bar left to right to adjust the brightness (assuming the auto-brightness is off).
So, whats your fav lost feature?
I know I have posted a lot of these in the tips/tricks, but its been a year.. some are old and forgotten. Could be new to people. Maybe there are new Tricks since I made that guide.

The thing with numbers I think its called dial pad but you put in a sequence of numbers and you can actually talk to your friends. That's pretty cool.

Hold upper-right corner (around clock, battery, signal icons) - the screen brightness goes to 100%
Swiping the letters to get specific artist names in songs to the music player. Swipe it while swiping it and you'll get and even more in depth search..

Wow, I use long press a lot, but I never knew you could do that in the browser!
I tend to mount my phone in landscape when I'm in the car (it's not a dedicated dock or anything fancy just a basic holder). My question is, I don't see any settings anywhere to make the phone call screen stay in landscape it always forces itself to portrait. Is there a way to prevent it from doing that? It'll stay landscape until you place the call then it'll flip to portrait.
I'm on ShoStock ICS ROM but I don't recall this ever being allowed even on GB or a stock ROM. Thanks!
I have the actual car dock mount and everything so far has stayed landscape EXCEPT while in-call. I think the phone apk just doesn't have a landscape orientation.

well a few times when I go to place a call I'll see it in landscape for a 1/2 second or so and then it'll rotate over to portrait so I have a feeling it "could" do it.
I don't think its possible. Let me try with aokp and I'll let you know.
OK just called my wife. The screen blacked out and would not switch to landscape, even after the screen turned back on. I've also noticed that spotify does this as well. I just don't think the apk has the ability.

AOSP has this ability, I'm pretty sure, but I don't think Touchwiz ROMs can do this.
I think op means to have landscape during a call.
I started a call from landscape and it went to portrait. It tried to switch to landscape.

My mistake. It reverts to portrait and shuts off the screen here too.

Works perfectly on aokp. I leave my phone in landscape in my car. You can even use landscape lock screen on aokp. While in phone app, menu, settings, enable landscape. Done.

Just tested it it only stays in landscape when in the dialer screen but it defaults to portrait on the call in progress screen and stays that way even if i bring up the keypad again.
For the curious, this is what it looks like on AOKP.

Yeap, it works beautiful in AOKP
Hrm...this is helpful but I want to know if it's possible to have tasker enable this setting in the phone apk setting only when docked. I hate answering calls and it rotates to landscape mode. So in other words I only want the phone the phone app to go into landscape mode when the phone is in the car dock.

Yeah wow. Wonder how he even got here lol.
I was on a website (Don't remember which) and was using the stylus... There was a menu that opened up with some options and while i was looking through them, I noticed that hovering the stylus above them was highlighting them! Up to probably 5-6 mm away from the screen I could hover over buttons and it would highlight them showing which ones I would be tapping!
So that means it has to be possible to have a floating pointer like the galaxy note 2 has (from a hardware standpoint)...
Apologies if this has been done and I'm on the slow train, in which case I'd love to be pointed to where I could find this.
Yep its been covered. Even have a thread about customizing the curse (pointer)

i tried out telus stock rom and noticed that it came preloaded with features like pop up browser and samsung's "page buddy" features. is there a way to get page buddy on the att stock version??
Well I got the pop up browser to work just by placing the apk in the system app folder. Maybe the same could work if you could get access to the apk.

I think it requires recompiling the framework for that toggle inside settings/display. Little more then copy/paste. But possible.
Since this seems to be the only thread mentioning page buddy.... does anyone know all the different screen triggers? Plugging in the head phones does one. S pen doesn't seem to trigger anything. Amy others?

The Note 2 options are S pen, earphones, docking, and roaming. Not sure if we have a S pen removed sensor to trigger an S pen page buddy.

No spen removal sensor on our note, so no option in pagebuddy for that. Just dock, roaming, and headphones.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=robj.floating.notifications I ran into this the other day and thought wow this works really well espcially for mycolorscreen set up i have curretnly with no status bar or anyting was really liking, i believe this is to replicate the "holo" feature on cm rom's you guys tried this what do you guys think??
So ive seen this out for a while now, and thought it was some cheesey knockoff version of Holo. I said to myself why waste my time. Then seeing this thread, and being bored I just gave it a go. Boy am I glad I did, ive run AOSP roms with holo and its still nothing compared to this. This is like simple multitasking amd they can be hidden whenever! Much better!
Thanks for being the one to make me finally try this out!

Been running it since build 2...big fan. It's great for quick views of emails/text etc when watching a movie or playing a game without having to exit and go to the app directly. You can view the header and then decide if you want to respond or not.
Really good find. can't wait to play with this
I made a youtube video about this when it was in beta stage. The developer is in the android apps and games forum. This is good stuff even for people that arent rooted. :thumbup:

Put myself in hot-reboot city last night. Enabled this in accessibility, rocking Beans 18 and AOSP lock screen - just started hot booting to the lock screen. Touch the lock - cycle repeats. Pulled the notification bar to get into settings and turned it off. It stopped.
I'm guessing AOSP lock screen + Xposed status bar + this checked in accessibility = no bueno.

Same exact set up (minus xposed status bar) and had the same issue with rebooting. Issue started 5 minutes after installing the app and allowing accessibility. Issue stopped after I deleted the app. Gonna try to see if I can change a few things to get it working.

The issue is AOSP lockscreen and Accessibility settings. If you're on standard TW lockscreen, there are no problems. Had the same issue with LightFlow previously.
The only thing I have a problem with, and its probably something that cant be fixed is when I get the bubble on the lock screen and click on it ot doesnt unlock. Any fix for this?

Good to know.
I assumed as much, but I love the AOSP lock screen. No lock/pattern AND music controls. Plus, the clock looks cleaner.
How well does this app work without accessibility turned on? Or does it? I flipped it on at about 2 am and messed around for about 15 mins before I started my trip to Las Bootsville, so I didn't get any notifications then.
