No, I meant the function to change photo without touching the screen or to change track without touching the screen, this is not the notes 4 '!!!! It 'can be a port from Galaxy S5 ??
Air Gestures indeed works on our Note 4

Smart scroll, and hand gesture call answering. If your rooted and you have another launcher you can
shortcuts, activities, settings, smart scroll and air gesture apply to your homescreen to access. Works just as it would the S5 and Note 3. I can scan pictures by hand answer calls in mid air pause music ect. Samsung has the features hidden but it's there.

Yes I also think there is a way to activate these functions, but I can not, maybe some developers might be able to do it ......
If you do *#0*# then sensor then gesture you can see that the up down left right gestures work. So it's strange that they aren't being used. Maybe Samsung felt it was a bit of a gimmick.

Use Nova Launcher open it long press on homescreen tap Shortcuts
tap Activities
Tap settings search for air gestures tap and hold air gestures put on homescreen( looks like a gear settings icon)
Open that turn air gestures on
Long press homescreen again shortcuts
Activities--->Settings--->Find smart scroll--->Drag smart scroll to homescreen open and turn on
You can still use touchwiz launcher you just need nova to add the settings.
**Alternative there is a Free app :Air Gestures Gallery: in the Google playstore . it works the same

You need Nova Launcher I am rooted (Not sure if it is required ) also have you rebooted after applying settings
I used GalaxyTools to add all Notification Toggles, But Nova should be all you need to activate it. You can return to touchwiz once everything works

[APP] New activity launcher - world smallest & litest launcher (Update 6-Jul-2013)
Why This launcher is Lite & Small?
Small :- This launcher just takes a gridview Layout and collects installed apps from Android packagemanager and displays it. No extra popus or additional functions are implemented. So, this launcher is smallest of any launcher at present or in future.
Lite :- This laucher is lite. 'coz, Any other launchers has Home screen and App Drawer embaded in that. As app drawer needs to take app icons, it takes more RAM to store images. Even if we kill Home screen, Android will reload Home app with APP ICONS. In this launcher, I divided launcher into two apps, one with HOME and other with App drawer. So, if we kill Home, Android will only relaunch HOME but not app drawer(as its not a part of home as like other launcher). So, App drawer will not be loaded and it saves memory when playing HD games.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Limitations :-
1. App drawer HOME key is not working for now... I did something with Manifest file and searching for fix
2. Widgets screens are not implemented. As it is lite laucher, I think, its okay
3. Lag in App Drawer:
Explanation: As I m using Gridview, Gridview loads the first page and when u scroll down, it will load another row and so on. Fast scroll for the first time will look lag. But, once these images are loaded, it will be damn fast. 'coz, I choosed to put these images in CACHE so that launcher will be fast.

Hitting refresh button on top right corner will display some text on homescreen. I placed batter % and this helps for stock users. I m trying to put your current location from network operator but that doesnt work. Will try later.

Thanks for showing interest...
This is set as Beta version.
App drawer is divided into two sections, ie SYSTEM Apps and Downloaded Apps. Right now, a button is used to switch between these sections.
But, I want to use swipe right and left to get this. 'coz, its very easy for our hand. No need to move ur hand to button.
LOL, A lazy good programmer is the best programmer in the world. I may not be good programmer but, surely Lazy LOL LOL
And, I will put Refresh, Kill after launch, Search option in context menu. 'coz, content menus are saved by default from Android.
The only reason why I put button is, people should know, wheather it is system app section or downloaded app section.
Well, I ll put Help screen in activity menu, I think, that can help them understanding this launcher. What do u say...
Let me know your suggestions or bugs if any.
Cheers

App drawer is going to change as said in concept. But, this requires little bit time. At max I ll try to push this weekend.
Yes, Launcher will be slow at first. 'coz, it has load all app icons. I kept cache option. so, once it is loaded, it should be fast. Infact, this is the reason for lag on other launchers. To reduce lag, they all reside in memory but, our low ram device lags as launcher takes more memory.LOL
I just wanted to get rid of it and so, I break launcher into two parts.
Today, I ll explain every inch in 1st post.
Success
Successfully implemented SWIPE to switch between System and Own Apps....
Will remove lower buttons and implement context menu soon...
And In home page, On refresh will display summary and clicking on that will hide text aswell. 'coz, dont want to distract background image. (this is just my plan).
EDIT: On Refresh task completed.
Any screenshots?
Great!
Music icon/widget on desktop does not seem to work
But Music icon on dock works just fine.
So far, looks promising. :good:
Noticed that from app drawer, when pressing home button nothing happens. Need to press back button to go back to home screen, guess really need to get used to this launcher.
Looking forward to your next release.

What you said is perfect. Music ICON works only when music player is in background as a service. ie, once u open music player, then music widget icon works. It will toggle, PLAY/PAUSE and LONGPRESS and DRAG outside of icon to SKIP to next track.
There is no code in Google to initiate and play Default music player by default.
Yes, we have to press back button to go back to launcher. Infact this is not required as this launcher is just like normal app. I did something in Mainfest file, this was the cause for this bug. I ll try to fix it.
Next version will be easy to use. (Mainly Removed Annoying Text on desktop (u can toggle display with refresh button ) and Swipe on app drawer is easy to switch between system/Downloaded apps. So, App drawer is just with apps.
Just give a day, I will try to fix this. Next version will be easy to use.
Thanks for clarifying the use of music widget
As for your planned development/improvements, awesome!
I feel, this launcher would fit well with our device, light and efficient. :thumbup:
Sounds good to me.

This is a pure Development FROM SCRATCH.

Its ur time to test and let me know bugs if any. Most of the error porn code is put in Error handler. So, most cases you wont get FCs

What that has to do with the correct organization of a forum? It's still an APK, not a flashable zip, not a ROM, nothing to do with Android Development, or do you think that the apps and mods that are at the Apps forum are not made by themselves? inform yourself. No wonder why the Arc forums are full of trash threads/posts.
Also I have tried your launcher, blazing fast but I'd like some minor customization, it wouldn't be bad at all

Guys,
How would it be if I add a Desktop icon to lock screen? and when I Long press that, it should is display Power menu to shutdown/reboot...
Need some suggestions like this to get this app better.
I m just thinking of another one. On Desktop, if I swipe Right/Left, it should display / Hide my desktop icons? This would take some time. But, it would be great as it wont distrub Desktop background.
Cheers
I'm new to RR, and as such I have a few questions that I can't seem to find answers for anywhere else. And since I can't post in the dev forums, I'll try my luck here.
1. How do I delete additional homescreens, and stay with just one?
2. .. and how do I do the same for my lockscreen? (multiple lock/home screens and camera access before entering pin is not wanted, plus it messes with my wallpapers ).
3. I can't seem to add more than 16 apps to a folder on my homescreen. Is this a limit that is adjustable?
Thanks in advance.
Did you look for any answers in the Resurrection thread? Used the search function in that thread?

TW launcher?..
I can only chose between "launcher" (assuming Apex. Might be wrong though) and Nova Launcher. I'm using the first, and do not have that option.
When pressing the menu button, I can only select Wallpaper, Manage apps, and System settings.
And I've been all the way through settings, security, device settings, resurrection tools, etc. to find a way to decrease the amount of screens, but without any luck.

Doh! Forgot the rom, you don't have a TW rom. :silly:
I recommend using Nova Launcher. Press the same button as shown in the picture, then go to Nova Settings > Desktop > Home Screens. There you can add or delete homescreens.
And for the lockscreen. Rom Control > Lockscreen? Under Pie Control.

Okay. It seems that Nova solved my problems with maximum number of apps in a folder, and using a single homescreen.
Now I would like to have single lockscreen as well. Right now I have 3 lockscreens - the right one of them being camera controls, and I would like to just have a single screen, where the only option is to enter the security pin code. No app launching without entering the pin.
I'll see if I can add a screenshot.
I'ts hard to screenshot, but as you might see from the two attachments, there's the option of scrolling right (and left) from the lockscreen, into two separate screens - the rightmost being the camera controls (slightly visible in one of the screenshots).
I'd just like to remove the extra screens, remove the camera access, in fact - remove everything besides one single screen where all you can do is enter the security pin.
Does that make sense?
Try this.
In the lockscreen, drag your finger down from the default clock. You'd enter the Android 4.2.1 lockscreen widgets full-screen view;
Press and hold the individual screen, and drag it up to 'X Remove';
It's a quote from KeithOYS in the original thread.

Only problem is... it doesn't work.
When I'm long-pressing the individual lockscreen, I can only add widgets, not delete anything.
EDIT: Correction. I can delete the center screen, thereby having only two screens left. But I can't seem to get rid of the right screen (fullscreen camera widget/app).
What am I doing wrong?
Hi mates!
Is this topic still alive ? I've got a question too. Maybe 2 or 4, in fact))
1) Cannot enable transparent notification bar... Why ?
2) How to center the clock on the lock screen ?
3) How to force the list of settings to fill the whole screen width ?
4) Cannot add the sound profiles to the notification drawer

FingerSecurity is a security app for Samsung devices with a fingerprint reader. The app will protect apps of your choice with your fingerprint.

}
With it's first release on July 16, 2014 FingerSecurity is the first app that allows an owner of a Samsung device with a fingerprint sensor to protect their apps with their fingerprints.
FingerSecurity allows you to protect any app with your fingerprint. FingerSecurity has many options to make your life easier and more secure.
- Protect any app with your fingerprint
- Widget for fast enabling/disabling
- Set timeouts to allow a short switch between apps
- Unlock multiple apps at ones
- Use your alternative password or pin code to unlock apps when your fingerprint is not recognized
- FingerSecurity can’t be uninstalled or killed
- Automatically protect new apps
- Use your favorite image as background
- Use a fake crash dialog
- Automatically unlock your apps at specific locations
- Only allow specific people(fingerprints) to unlock an app
- Protect notifications of protected apps
***FAQ***
- Why is my device not supported?
FingerSecurity will only work on Samsung devices with a fingerprint sensor. So your device is not a Samsung device or your Samsung device does not have a fingerprint sensor.
- A notification is asking for a backup password. What should I do?
This is a security feature from the system(it is not a part of FingerSecurity but from Samsung’s firmware). When you scan your fingerprint too many times without identification then the system will block the sensor and ask for your backup password. The backup password was specified during the registration of your fingerprints(this might not be the same as your alternative password for FingerSecurity). You have to enter your backup password else you can’t use the fingerprint sensor.
- I can’t remember my backup password.
Unfortunately there is no way to reset the backup password. The only solution is performing a hard reset.
- FingerSecurity uses a lot of battery after updating.
Please restart your device. Then FingerSecurity will work normal again and the battery usage will drop.

Thanks. i will add a finger swipe indicator.
Great job! Finally!
Few things I noticed are that it doesn't always open my apps after I swipe, just goes back to homescreen.
And setting timeout just closes the security app but only when I try to delete the numbers ..
Thanks for this awesome app! Keep it up!

this app is great but i have a suggestion that it would be better if the fingerprint scanner pop up directly when i open the app. It's a waste of time to press the button again.

It's all good ! Here's my suggestions :
+ In the app selector menu, please make the possibility to sort between protected app and unprotected ones.
+ Make tab that separate between services and apps. Because i have a list of apps including (baby monitor, adapt sound, airwakeup...) for sure i don't want to protect those and they make the app list very long.
+ If you can make the protection interface less harsher that would be great. Like in the paranoid android rom, you can have the app blurred (Add an option for amount of transparency ?) so we can't see what's going on it, and have the protection layer in top of it. The transition then will be much more soft
+ I won't mind another logo and another name.
That's it
Thanks for the great app

Nice module, good job.
A few notes
-the app list needs time to load but you are not showing a loading icon. At first I thought the app was broken, but when I clicked 'launch app' a few seconds later it showed up.
-why are you using gingerbread drop down list?
-if you don't need the v4 support library (which is included automatically) you should remove it and your app size will go down by 200 kb
Looking forward to the shortcut option.

i will rework that soon. as this is just a preview, i didnt focus much on the settings activity yet.
-i thought they might look a bit better, but if people hate them, i will change them
-thanks, will do that

And I forgot I'm running PA 4.43 (Android 4.4.4) on galaxy s4 i9500
Also why don't you use a preference screen and make each one a list preference? (PS it's now deprecated but works)
I would like to see this being developed further hence I've purchased the donation package on Google Play.

I don't know. Check your ROM Settings, since i don't have any haptic feedback on my statusbar.
When I disabled your module, there is no haptic feedback but once enabled the haptic feedback is there. Anyways great job man!

Did wait for a few seconds? After 10 seconds the list loaded for me. (after the 10 seconds you have to choose a different options for the list to load)
I love your module. It would be super awesome if you could add some in-app action of your own; like scroll to top, page up/down etc.

Well, my V30 arrived today and I really like this phone. I'm not new to LG phones and have dealt with this before but I can't install the app drawer icon on the home page without messing up my new setup and losing a lot of apps and pages. Is there a workaround for this that any of you know about? Thanks in advance for any help on this.

Install Nova launcher, make app drawer, "import" the other launcher settings. LG in this case.
(Next time don't set up all your other shortcuts and stuff until you get your app drawer...
But Nova launcher can import your current configuration and still have an app drawer.

Thanks for the reply and suggestion. Lesson learned I guess. I have never used a launcher before but I have only heard good things about the Nova launcher. I guess I will give it a try. I wonder why LG set the app drawer icon/function up like that in the first place?

LG gives choice of "Home" or "Home + App Drawer". But Home is the default. You have to choose the other when setting up...
Apple doesn't give iPhone users an app drawer because they're too probably stupid to find it? Google keeps trying to make Android be like iPhone (clock on the left where notifications go, removing headphone jack, etc) and it seems to have carried over to LG.
Well, since my last post, I installed Nova Launcher Prime and I basically had to start over anyway but it was a breeze having the app drawer right there. I am now exploring all of the settings within the launcher and having a ball doing so. Thanks for the suggestion. :good::good:

Use the cube rotation -- it's cool. Use the reverse parallax on wallpaper.

The cube rotation is cool. Thanks for the tip. I'm not sure about what the wallpaper thing does though. I set it on reverse but I did not see any change. I am using a LG theme called "Lightwave" and it has a live wallpaper that looks like an aurora. I like it. I found a lot of stuff on Nova launcher on YouTube. It's going to be a blast exploring it.
Also on Nova, you can save/backup your homescreen settings, so if something goes wrong you can simply reload it...

Yeah, the reverse parallax wallpaper effect doesn't work on live wallpapers. I see on new Nova they dropped the "parallax" name and only call it "reverse".
Basically causes the wallpaper in the background to move in the opposite direction of your desktop rotation, so the movement effect is magnified.
______
One other tip. Down in Advanced on Home Screen, I have my layouts locked. If I want to change something (add an icon, move an icon, edit a folder name), I can long press on empty space on any of the desktop screens and it will temporarily unlock to allow me to make changes. Otherwise you will accidentally move icons, widgets. I do this for my wife, sister, mother, friends also. Saves a lot of tech support phone calls! After you make the changes, within 30 seconds the layout will re-lock.
Also, you can export your Nova configuration to save elsewhere for safekeeping. Send to Gmail, upload to Google Drive, other destinations. If you wipe your phone, you can then download it and "import". Even helps if you change devices, to move your layout to different phone.
______
Another tip: I make my app drawer have a black background, so there's obvious difference between my desktop and app drawer.
_________
OK, bonus tip. Custom Icon packs. If you've not messed with that yet you are in for real treat. You download, install, and then in Nova Launcher "Look & Feel" Settings section, you apply via dropdown menu in Icon style. (For my own personal reasons, I do NOT have the "Normalize Icon Size" box checked.)
GOOGLE PLAY ICON PACKS
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=icon pack&c=apps&hl=en_US
These are custom icon packs. Some are free with no ads, some cost money, some are free but with ads (which may not appear if you have an ad blocker?). Besides wallpaper, you can totally change the look of your phone with custom icon pack.
I found this one when I had a previous device and keep using it. Has over 3,700 icons:
MyUI 5 - Icon Pack
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xda.miroex&hl=en_US
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But you can also find many esoteric and radical looking packs to be totally different. Like this one:
LineX Icon Pack
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jndapp.line.x.iconpack&hl=en_US
Not my taste, but others may love it!
But tons in between the two extremes to experiment with!

@ChazzMatt, Thanks for all of this information and the icon pack information. The LineX icons are cool. I have seen some of these on YT and I am interested. On the reverse feature, OK, I now know what you were referring to. I will be using that some too I am sure.
One thing I have noticed and you might know a fix for. My phone has lost the "Knock On and Off" function even though I have it turned on. Any ideas on that? Thanks again for your help with Nova.

Thanks for the tip but that setting as far as using the double knock, only lets me shut down the screen and then I can't use a double knock to turn the screen back on. I can't even use the fingerprint option as well. Nova needs a fix for that.
when using nova to turn off screen double tap works, but you cant doubel tap from anywhere on the screen.
Double Tap on the time (upper right ccorner of you screen) and the screen will turn off. Thats the best and only way to double tap screen off using Nova
oops your question was screen on wih double tap, i have nova and have double tap screen on in setting of the phone (not nova) and the double tap work to turn on screen from anywhere on the off screen, then i use fouble tap on the time to turn screen off.
check you device setting make sure double tap is on.
@jaygo444, Thanks for the information and yes, I do have the double tap feature turned on in the phone settings. I kind of miss having the tap on feature though.
OK, I have a question about icon packs. If I install one and decide to use it with Nova launcher, will it affect my screen icon setup or will it just replace the icons I already have and leave my layout as it is?

It will leave the layout but just convert the icons to the new look.
If the icon pack itself asks to make changes, say no. You're only applying the icon look through Nova Settings.

I've used Nova launcher for years. However I'm liking the LG launcher right now. You have a few options for home screen.
No need for the app drawer icon since you can slide up from the bottom to get into the app drawer.
The other option which is nice is the IOS way to do it. Flipping through screens to get the app you like.
Also I bought zone launcher so that way I can select a few apps I use at time to time without going into the app drawer. The free version is enough but I like to support the devs.
