[4.2.2] 5 Layouts Floating Multi Windows I92xx [MOD][ROOT] - Samsung Galaxy Mega

This mod will enable 5 layouts Floating Multi Windows on your Mega I9200/I9205 running JB 4.2.2.
DO NOT POST REPLIES LIKE "IT DOESN'T WORK ON MY MEGA 5.8", OR "IT DOESN'T WORK ON 4.4.2" CUZ YOU WILL BE IGNORED.
IT TOOK ME LONG TIME TO MAKE THIS MOD SO THE LEAST YOU CAN DO IS TO READ THIS OP COMPLETELY.
THE SAME APPLIES IF YOU WANT ME TO TRY TO MAKE THIS MOD COMPATIBLE WITH YOUR PHONE VERSION, READ OP AND SEE WHAT FILES I NEED.
5 LAYOUTS? WHAT'S THAT ABOUT?
Think KK quad view style, you can split the screen in 2, 3 or 4 areas and open up to 4 apps at the same time and on the same screen.
BUT, this mod enables Floating Windows too, whereas KK doesn't (at least until someone finds a way to make windows float on KK, provided that it's doable at all).
See what I mean? No?
Then have a look at the screenies below...
RIP
The old thread that was here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2549794
is now deprecated, but you can give it a look if you are curious about how it all started.
That old thread was a bit messy with many flashable and non flashable files scattered here and there, so I decided to put everything in order by making a new thread with only one zip, moreover that the 5 layouts mod is a major update and that it comes with some improvements and bug fixes.
DISCLAIMER
I'm not responsible for anything that may happen, your Mega, your responsability. The mod works fine on mine but one never knows, so make sure you have a Nandroid backup.
REQUIREMENTS
A rooted Mega I9200 or I9205, with a custom recovery (either CWM, or Philz, or whatever) installed.
It works on deodexed Roms only, and it has been tested on DDUCNB1 (the very latest 4.2.2 firmware).
I can't tell for sure whether it works on other Roms or not, but my guess is that it does.
Please try and report (but don't forget to make a backup beforehands:cyclops, and in case it doesn't work upload your:
android.policy.jar
framework.jar
framework-res.apk
FlashBarService.apk
SecSettings.apk
and I'll mod them for you.
One things is that the current files come from my home made Rom and some have been green themed, so some icons and writings will come out green. In case you don't like it tell me and I'll upload non themed apks.
INSTALLATION
Using your favorite root browser navigate to /system/etc/permissions folder and find com.sec.feature.multiwindow.phone.xml.
Rename it com.sec.feature.multiwindow.phone.xml.bak (do not delete it, in case you want to revert back to static stock multi windows).
In the same folder you'll find com.sec.feature.multiwindow.xml, rename it com.sec.feature.multiwindow.xml.bak (same remark as above).
Now you can flash the mod from recovery. wipe cache and dalvik cache, reboot, that's it.
AND?
Now when you open an app you can see an icon at the top right or at the top bottom, press it, the app switches to Floating Window view.
In floating mode you can see on the top bar a close, a maximize and a pin button, plus a minimize icon.
The close and maximize icons speak by themselves.
The minimize icon shrinks the window to a bar like on a computer.
The pin button, press it, it changes color and enables you to keep the Floating Window (s) allways on screen.
Use the space between the pin and the other icons to drag and move the window wherever it pleases you.
While in floating mode you can press the maximize icon, or double tap the center of the bar, to get the window back to full screen mode.
Open your FlashBar (the bar from where you launch the multi windows) and look at the top, you'll see two icons.
One is for cascade mode, and the other for 2, 3R, 3L and 4 (dual, tri right, tri left and quad) mode.
When you press an icon it turns green, which means that the mode is activated.
If some windows disappeared and you want them back, or if you had too many windows opened in dual, tri or quad mode and want to put all of them in order, press the cascade icon and they'll open in cascade mode (but it only works if the apps are still active, if they had been closed it obviously doesn't work).
While in 2, 3R, 3L and 4 mode, if you drag an app from the Flash Bar it will open in dual mod (taking half of the screen) but if you simply click on it it will open taking a quarter of the screen.
Then it's up to you to open 2, 3 (2 at the top and 1 at the bottom, or the opposite) or 4 windows at once, to move windows from top right to top left or from bottom to top, to cascade etc.
In cascade mode you can resize windows from the bottom, the left and the right.
In 2, 3R, 3L and 4 mode you can resize windows as well, but to do so you have to activate (press) the pin first.
In cascade mode I've set the windows to be quite small because it's the way I like them, but in case you don't then just tell me and I'll change the size.
BUGS
1-The template option in the Flash Bar may work or may not depending on your phone configuration. At first it worked on mine but then it stopped, I have to look into it...
2-The tray bar (the bar between the windows in 2, 3 and 4 mode) is sometimes a bit erratic, but it depends on your phone configuration so you may not experience it at all.
3-Most likely the multi window option has disappeared from the quick toggles, but you still can turn it on and off from the display settings.
If you want the multiwindow quick toggle back, open the settings storage apk (AKA SecSettingsProvider.apk) data base with a sqlite editor, go to settings, find the line called "notification_panel_active_app_list" and add "MultiWindow;" (without the "" symbols).
4-You tell me.
ADD
I've attached a zip, DO NOT FLASH IT!
Unzip it, it contains com.sec.feature.minimode_tray.xml that may help in case you experience issues with the tray bar while in 2, 3R, 3L and 4 mode.
Copy it manually in /system/etc/permissions and set perms to rw, r, r (644), reboot.
OK, THANKS FOR THE BLAH BLAH BUT WHERE IS THE LINK?
It's here mate:
http://d-h.st/O88
UPDATES?
Maybe, I have 2-3 things on my mind but I'm not sure I will manage to implement them.
Stay tuned...:good:

I don't understand, it should work. At first it nags you to download mobogenie or whatever stupid stuff, you click cancel and then you can download the file.
I'm not sure whether it would work with the att version. You can try, but ONLY if you have a backup cuz chances are that it won't work.
Alternatively, upload the files I mentioned in op and I'll make an att version for you.

How do you access the menu??

I think this mod changes some things. The letters on the send button of stock sms are two tier. "Se" is on one line "nd" is on another.
Two different lines. I also could not take a screen shot with S-pen or bring up S-Memo Lite . Maybe I will go back and try to finish my EPM mod.
Can anyone confirm these bugs described?

I just reloaded the rom and s-pen works now.. I hardly use the s-pen so i didn't think to try it out. I edited the origin post with this new information. Definitely work on your mod so we can have full s-pen functionality and the convenience of the extended power menu
eb8806 said:
I noticed the send button on messaging a while after i posted it. I can live with it. For some reason i have not been able to use the s-pen to pull up the s-memo app from the homescreen or to take screenshots since i started using UCLE2. I double tap on the screen and it just pulls up the apex launcher settings & when i hold the button on the s-pen and press down on the screen nothing happens. THis was before i flashed this extended power menu.
Did yours work before flashing this? I would like to get s-pen working on the UCLE2 rom on my phone.

You can change that setting within Apex settings, just uncheck the option and it won't pull the menu up anymore.
The reason why nothing works is because this flashes the S2 framework replacing the Note Framework.
2 completely different Framework.APK
Its not made for the Note.

[Q] How do I mod 23 toggles to look more stock

Here's what I got im running CleanRom vzw Lite but I wanted more toggle options I found a flashable zip in a different carriers forum here on xda called GT-N7100_WanamLite.XXDLJ2.23Toggles and I flashed on Cleanrom vzw lite and it works all 23 toggles but the 4g and signal strength icons are different is there any way to get the Verizon factory looking ones back in there and if so how? I would also like to change the toggle back ground color closer to stock the one in the zip is black. If anyone could send me in the right direction that would be great or would like to whip that up for me that would be awesome..

Well that's the easiest way. I don't have the app to look at it but I'm sure it's in the res folder. Also just pull the images from a stock ROM. So basically you are gonna need someone to make it for you.

The easiest way is to extract everything and look at the images and then modify them, make new ones or kang them from a rom or theme you like. It's not real hard, but it takes time to figure out which icons you need to change. Ninja is good if you don't have a PC around and only have a couple icons to change but it's a pain for multiple icons. You'll need to change at least 2 icons for each toggle, one for active and inactive (some may have more). Use winrar or 7zip to drag and drop into the apk, then flash it in recovery or swap it out in the system files and reboot.

Between the two icons he wants changed there are more than 10 pngs to change (which isn't too bad in Ninja) but also its a lot easier finding things if you just extract it first. If you find multiple similar icons you can do trial and error to find which ones are used, or what I do which is compare different themes to see what they changed. Ninja is great though because when I do a theme at night and find that I missed one icon while at work I can fix it right away instead of going nuts with my OCD.

I guess I'm just to lazy to grab my computer most the time and just do it from my phone. I really haven't messed with toggles though so I assumed it was just two images per toggle. I think for the op your method is going to be much easier though if he wants to give it a shot.

LG Home with Theme Enabled (ODEX Version),Themes and AOSP LockScreen

This is a LGHome3.Apk with Theme enabled for Stock Rom Only... This is a ODEX version... So Anyone like me who has Pure Stock Rom with Just Root..You can use this and Apply themes. Most of the LG homes found here on XDA and online are Deodexed versions and I just wanted Odex version but with Theme enabled. I feel LG launcher is the best stock Launchers available out there with its customizations etc.
While doing some experiments.. Found out LGOG Lockscreen is based on AOSP Lockscreen. Just making one small change it give us AOSP Lock screen. (See Below Images Post 2). for Lock Screen follow the same steps as Home but from STEP 5 Replace anywhere it says LGHome3 to Lockscreen3 when following steps.
Click here to DOWNLOAD HOME
Click Here to Download AOSP Lock Screen for STOCK LGOG
Themes can be found in thread (Below Link) on Different pages. I did not try them all.. So don't blame me if something goes wrong on themes end.
I will be Adding more themes here.... Also you can create your own themes...
How To for LG Home: ALL THE BOLD STEPS ARE VERY IMPORTANT
1. You need to be rooted (No need of custom Recovery etc)
2. Need file Explorer Like ES File Explorer which has ROOT Explorer (Free on Market)
3. Install 3rd Party Launcher for Just in case scenarios... I installed Free Nova.. You can install any other launcher.
4. Make the 3rd Party Launcher as Default (Just till you get everything working)
5. Open ES explorer click Menu on Phone and Enable Root Explorer (It Should be ON in Blue) And Mount RW should be selected on System.
6. Dowload the File from this Thread (LGHome3.apk)
7. Go to System/App and Rename the Orginal LGHOme3.Apk to LGHome3.apk.Org and Paste the one you downloaded. (Remember.. Before you do this step, To make the Other Launcher you downloaded to make it Default)
8. Once you Paste the one from this forum.. Restart the phone.
From Settings Home try to Select the Home.. (LG) If it say Unfortunately Home as stopped or Something like that.. Go to Settings > Apps> All and Stop HOME Selector , Stop and Clear Cache for Home .. Then Try Again to Select Home.. You are Good to Go.
I put all the steps like ELI5 so that noobs can follow too. Still if you have any questions... Please feel free to Ask. If I don't answer on time, Someone else will with a good heart.
Sample Theme (Love), AOSP Lockscreen Pic's.
This is a sample theme And Lockscreen. Lock Screen has a gray bar below, Date and time are not visible on the lock screen b'cos of the wallpaper.
Can you also give lock-screen where can be selected weather instead of clock or calendar?

I wonder if I might be able to pick your brain about how you created the AOSP lockscreen. I actually have the LG G2 and I was trying to figure how to get the AOSP lockscreen on a stock based rom because I don't really like the LG version. No one in our forums has done it that I'm aware of so I started poking around at other LG forums figuring that it might lead me the right direction. (I actually tried using the one you posted thinking maybe it would work but it seems it isn't compatible.) Anyway, then I thought you probably just pulled the lockscreen from an AOSP rom or from gapps but I couldn't seem to find the apk file. Did you create that lockscreen by modfying code in the LG apk? Maybe I can follow the same process for my phone... Any help would be awesome!

[MOD] [ROOT] [4.4.2] Quad View Multi Windows (KK)

In stock multi windows we can have only 2 apps opened and visible at the same time.
If you are rooted and on the last KK ROM it's possible to have 3 or 4 apps opened at the same time on the same screen, read further...
Make a backup, just in case.
Open your /system/etc/permissions folder,
add .bak at the end of com.sec.feature.multiwindow.xml,
download the attached zip (DO NOT FLASH IT:cyclops,
extract it,
copy the files to your /system/etc/permissions folder,
set their perms to rw, r, r or 644,
reboot.
Open any app from the flash bar (the multi windows app launcher on the side) and open a second one.
Now open a third one and drag it to any side, it will take one quarter of the screen. Open a fourth app, same story, now you have 4 apps opened on the same screen.
Every app is fully resizable, both in lenght and in width...
I'm sorry, I can't take any screenshot from my phone, but if you want to see how it looks do a google images search with "quad view multi window".
Enjoy and stay tuned, there's probably more to come!!!

Hi,.....I did it all and it's working only that now when i open my Gallery it says "Unfortunately Gallery has Stopped".......any ideas?
Does anyone else have this issue??
Update:
Well i went back to an earlier BackUped ROM which i had, did the procedure again and all good now!......no Gallery problems either.
Thanks
Worked initially for me. But after some time I could not enable multi window from notification tab. Even after long pressing back button the multi window tab not enabling.
What about the DPI itself ? Is it finely fitted the window however its size ?
Sent from my SM-G900F using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yep, it fits fine. Try it by yourself...
By the way, I'm currently working on doing the same for 4.2.2 and it already works more or less. It's not exactly the same than in 4.4.2 cuz it's more like the 5 layouts from the note 2, but the screen splits in 2, 3 and 4 which is the desired effect. A bit more testing and improving and I'll put it on a new thread...

Now open a third one and drag it to any side, it will take one quarter of the screen. Open a fourth app, same story, now you have 4 apps opened on the same screen.
Every app is fully resizable, both in lenght and in width...
I'm sorry, I can't take any screenshot from my phone, but if you want to see how it looks do a google images search with "quad view multi window".
Enjoy and stay tuned, there's probably more to come!!!

I'm not 100% sure but probably.
Just give it a try, it can't harm your phone and no need to worry about bootloops
"What ROM did you use to this?" (@samueldewit)
Did you read the OP's title?
Anyone try this on 4.4.4? MEtro PCs is the only one on 444 I believe.

Yes. I have the MetroPCS mega with megalomanic's Metro MegaKat Deodex V6 TW 4.4.4 rom and this mod works. I have not yet needed to actually view four different apps on the screen simultaneously but I did it just to test this mod. As a matter of fact I just tested it again while writing this post. Works fine.

[APP]Note 4 Hidden Settings - Air Gestures and Air View with Fingers

Quick Note:
a. This Application is for Samsung Galaxy Note 4 which may also be used on Samsung Galaxy S5.
b. Don't express your hate for ADs in reviews. It's only way of developer's earnings. You can deactivate ADs within the app but it will be nice of you not to.
c. Please Do Post Reviews and help us build this app according to your need.
So, Samsung decided to hide some key features in Galaxy Note 4 and we don't why. But that should not be stopping you from using those awesome features as those are hidden not deleted or something.
Air Gestures: Samsung Galaxy Note 4 has pretty all the sensors that Samsung Galaxy S5 had. So, why not use those. Quick Glance does not work because of a missing apk in Note 4. Will be fixed in next Update
Air View: You can use your SPen for Air View but what happens when you are not using SPen. You use your finger for that purpose. (buggy)
Smart Scroll: Doesn't seems to work but work in progress (buggy)
Samsung Keyboard Handwriting Setting: Edit the way you write and the way for Note 4 detects your writing
LockScreen Clock Style: Miss Your Lockscreen where you can Signature as your personal message. You have that back
Edit Personal Message: What's the use of personal message when you can't edit it.

It's normal to somethings don't work ? Like, the air view with finger doesn't work at all... the air gestures works just on e-mail and gallery, never on stock browser... smartscroll too, doesn't worked at all...
This can be related to my device ? i have the N910C version... thanks so much, great app, the options for lockscreen and keyboard it's awesome ;D
Air view with finger does not work. I am on a custom rom; may that be the problem? Another issue is to do with the pen colour. I selected the pen colour red. The pen wrote in red, but when the text has been recognized it turned to blue.
Air view finger hover messed up in latest built.
Earlier I have enabled this option on my ROM and working fine but with MK3 it causing lag and unresponsive touch on dialer, My files etc applications. Samsung might have removed codes in new built.
air gesture > air browser> music player and music on lockscreen do not work
air gesture > air browser> Air Jump do not work
Quick info works with GlaceView.apk taken from note3
Update is possible or too difficult to build ?
Thanks

This is a great app I've been using nova launcher to get to the hidden settings witch is a pain lol I can get air view with ur finger working on my note 4 and I'm not rooted, it works well in messages, email,galley ecx but it makes my screen annoyingly unreceptive especially when using the keybord so I turned back off =(
This is awesome! Almost everything works! Has anyone been able to get the air call accept to function correctly?

I haven't tested this on any custom rom but stock one. I suggest you test this zip and let me know. I am pretty sure that it isn't going to mess up your device as it just copies an apk to system dir.

Same with me bro.
Hi, the single application does not work, you need to change your floating_feature.xml file for this to work.
If you want I can make you a zip to make it work on galaxy note 4
