Anyone else tried this? I added the notifications pull down/up shade button and it makes it much more one hand friendly. Also added the q slide button just to try.

Yeah, this has been a feature since the G3 (I believe). I keep the capture+ button down there for quick screenshots.

Hi,
I love my Nook Tablet, and have rooted it using Indirect's method, and have added the SystemUI.apk published by revcompgeek.
However, I'm not quite where I want to be...I am really hoping for some tweaks or app(s) that will make my "n" button truly act like the home button in Button Savior, or the home button on my iphone - I want to double-click or long-click on it and get a list of running apps, with the option to switch to another one directly or to close one or more.
Does anyone know how I can do that?
Thanks,
ST
natively no possible, apps will do

Look for Multitasking Lite on the market. You can get a running list of appear by single press, double press, or by search button.

Multitaking Lite did the trick! I also tried TaskXP and that does the trick as well. My problem with them is I didn't realize I needed them to catch the home page button press. Now that I figured that out everything's working the way I want.
Thanks for everyone's help, this noob appreciates it!

Thanks for the info, just downloaded taskXP

Does anyone know of a multitasker that actually catches a home button hold rather than a double or single press? I want a single press to go home and dislike the delay that setting the multitasker to double press introduces.

You can disable the double tap function in TaskXP and have the multitasker popup on one click. I tried it on mine and it works.

Yeah, that doesn't quite solve my problem unfortunately, thanks though. I've gotten used to the single click for home, hold for MRU from other devices and was hoping to find something that would make this the same. I guess that's probably unlikely though since that's default android behavior and the whole purpose of these apps is to change it.
I use the S Pen a lot. I'm trying to figure out a way to incorporate the back, home and settings button into my launcher (ADW)
The same way ICS does it basically to eliminate the need for the Capcative buttons.
Does anyone know of an app or way to put those shortcuts on your home screen? Its really annoying when using the S Pen to have to always go back to those buttons.

You know you can use the s pen right?
Press pen button while swiping back to go back
Press button up and swipe up to open menu
Press button and swipe down to go home
Samsung has all these tips in the phone
Menu.settings.spen
There is also a s pen tips app in the market...and lots of cool stuff on the facebook page.
If that doesnt work out for you there are a few apps on the maeket for "soft buttons"

You can use the S-Pen for going back, home, and menu. Hold the button and drag left for back, Button+down for home and button+up for menu.
Can someone explain why the menu button is acting odd. Under Menu Visibility it is set to "Default JB behavior" however apps like chrome beta dont trigger the menu button to show up. If i flip it to always show it works fine, but then its always there which is annoying.
I don't remember it handling those way on my GNex. Anyone?

Hi,
Can anybody know about how to add reset/shutdown button into notification panel or button on Home screen for samsung galaxy note 3?
I have searched around the phone but couldn't see that function.
THANKS.
JACK
I don't know about an on-screen widget, but simply holding the power button for 3 seconds will result in those buttons popping up.
as per I know I have not seen any such on screen widget..so all you need to do simply hold the power button for 2-3 seconds and you will get the pop up of shutdown and reset...but still if you get to know about some on screen widget then just do let me know..would be happy to know about anything like this...and will be going to implement for sure......
If your rooted you can use an app called quick boot. I'm not sure if this is what your looking for.

Hi,
I have Beanstalk, of Android 4.4.2. Unlike previous versions, after showing the notifications window by dragging down the status bar, I cannot close that window (and return to the home screen) using the Back button. I can only drag it back up or otherwise click the Home button. Is there a setting to allow closing it using the Back button (as all my previous ROMs allowed)?
Thanks,
Shlomy

Back to kill is probably not implemented yet. (normally this option in the development options).
When pressing the back button to minimize the app it should be working. If not reboot a few times and see if it helps, otherwise reflash.

What does "Back to kill" mean? The Back button works fine in all other cases; the only case where I expect it to do something and it doesn't is when the notifications are shown on the screen after pulling down the status bar.
I hoped it would be somewhat configurable to map the back button to the same operation of dragging the notifications back up to the status bar (which is what happened with the previous ROMs I used).

Back to kill is holding the back button to close the app in stead of minimizing it.
In your case it's something that doesn't work (yet). So the only thing you can do is, fix it yourself or wait for the next build and hope it's fixed.
