I don't know if it's in stock, but most marshmallow ROMs have this sort of functionality as an option in the Developer Settings menu. It's nowhere near as polished as Samsung's implementation and I can't personally recommend using it, though.

Stock does not appear to have this option available... at least not on my Honor 5x, L24
you aren't missing anything... it's a nearly useless feature in the manner 'stock ROM' implements it.

I found out how to play with the split-screen/multi-windows feature !
Implementation is not as good as the Samsung's one, but it works.
With Marshmallow, you simply need to do a long press on the square virtual button and your display will be split in 2 parts, then choose the apps you want to run.

You're on stock I assume? I just tried this on CM13 and it had a different effect. On CM13 it opens your "previous" app in from the background. It's actually pretty nifty for going back and forth between two apps.

Very nice. Too bad there's so few supported apps.

Arobase40 said:
In fact it works the same way with stock :
- Short press on the square virtual key to get "previous" apps.
- long press for multi-windows.

Nope, it's different. On CM13:
- Short press: Cards view of previous apps
- Long press: Open previous app (no choice/selection, it just opens your previous app)

Interesting. It would be nice to be able to scroll Windows in a revolving cube view sort of like with Nova Launcher.

New JB default app selector is the worst!

How do we let Google know to go back to the default app selector? The one in ICS just required 1 click to select from the list of available apps. I know that I don't always like selecting a default app because for things like links I like being presented with the option of different browsers etc. And if I define a default it can be a hassle to undo the default. I just don't like how I have to select "Just Once" every time. I liked how it worked in ICS that there was a check box to define the default if yo unwanted to, but to select the app was just 1 click. I hope that Google will revert in versions to come!

Completely agree with you! At times i prefer opening links in the pop up browser, and other times in the full blown one. Think we can get people for a petition?

agreed, i use chrome as my default, but would really like the option of having the pop up... good point, but doubtful we can do much right now.
Take a chill pill guys. Android 4.2 fixes this issue, so this will become a non-issue whenever Verizon's Note II gets that software update. http://www.pocketables.com/2012/11/...popup-to-bypass-annoying-selector-system.html

Haha. But even if Verizon takes forever to officially release 4.2 for this phone, I'm sure there will be leaks. Or if the bootloader ever gets unlocked, an AOSP version of 4.2 or Key Lime Pie could be developed for those who don't mind the lack of S-Pen features.
But at the end of the day, this app selector issue is pretty minor. The phone's still fine otherwise.
That's good news.... I didn't realize that they had fixed this in 4.2. I can wait as long as there is hope.

how to get PIE (floating) controls to recover screen space?

Hi
How to get these PIE buttons or floating controls = (home, back, menu) and recover screen real estate? Thanks. It's so much faster to access instead of moving entire to bottom left corner.

Try searching for full!screen in Google Play. I've been playing around with it and it seems excellent -- after customizing a few default settings. There is a full!screen+ that allows you to apply app specific settings.
If you want to use it exclusively then you'll have to get something to display your notifications. I'm still shopping around for that.
WoW thankS !!!!!

Hi
How do you make use of Android 4
If you give me the link
Hi omidmomid,
Sorry I don't understand your question, can you elaborate further? thanks.
In case I think that you're asking how did I make use of Android 4 inside Jetstream???
Then the answer is NO, I don't have Android 4 inside Jetstream, I just want to add PIE on top of existing Android 3.1 honeycomb. The screenshot is not from Jetstream, I just borrow it from outer places to ensure everyone does not mistaken PIE. Sorry to have confused you.

Quick launch app

Hi everyone..
I'm looking for an app, widget or anything you can think of, style appsi, sidecontrol or any other quick launch app, that can be activated through a shortcut or any other way beside gesture... From my experience both of these apps are the most usefull and efficient apps of there kind. You can add favorite app, contacts, toggels or practikly anything you would like. The thing is that for me personally, being able to activate them only via gesture is quite annoying. I find myself accidently triggering it, or facing bugs. Appsi hasn't released anything for a while, so I guess that the project is over. And sidecontrol has bugs and doesn't work well on my lg g3. Does anybody know something else like theme?
Thank you for taking the time to read this long post, and of course for your help....
You can try SwipePad app.

Sounds simplistic, but why not just put your apps, shortcuts, etc in a folder?

Swipe pad is launched by a gesture, and is rather limited than appsi or sidecontrol...

Because that to access everything you need to go the home screen. I'm looking for something you can access these features from anywhere..
The home screen is just one big menu that has hot key access via the center of the navbar.
I can access it from anywhere by hitting the home key. I can return to any app I've started via the recents key.
Your view of how your menu should work is the same as this. In your app you hotkey access from anywhere. So do I. You would have categories to establish multiple menu levels. So do I. You need to return to the app you were in. So do I.
Mine is just reinventing what we already have. Yours requires additional code and system resources. I'm using mine and you're still looking.

[SHARE][APP] SwiftOpen - Fast Launcher

Hello. Yesterday, i was searching for an launcher (NOT a home launcher} which allow me to run apps more quickly from any app I'm running at an moment.
I found this app named SwiftOpen. It's thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-swiftopen-fast-launcher-beta-t2871523 .
It allow you to add apps shortcuts, even some settings like wifi, so you can put wifi on more easy. You swipe from right (you can change the place from where to swipe) and the launcher come.Read the whole description of it's thread. Oh, and don't forget to press thanks button to the developer
Review / My opinion:
In my opinion it does a great job. I don't even have to press home button to go in another app. It use about 15 MB ram. Last night i had 58% battery and i kept this app running in background and today, in the morning, i had same battery percent. So, it seems that it doesn't drain battery.
Now i don't even need to use the home button, as i placed an shortcut of "home" in the bottom left
I downloaded the latest version released. I encountered one bug: when i want to change the place of an shortcut, the app crash, but the shortcut get moved.
Here is an screenshot. You see an white square in the right, it's because i kept my finger there to take an screenshot, otherwise the launcher dissapear. By the way, you can add more shortcuts, even Tasker ones !!!

he he LOL
btw i doubt that our SMART phone will stand this kind of multi tasking if i have FB installed
Also found this app recently, it's the best launcher by a long shot. I have a G4 and I hate the softkeys taking up screen space, as you mentioned this app means you don't need any other buttons or home button.
Thanks for the tip to put this launcher in the place of the home button, I had it on the side but now that you mention it that's naturally the best spot to put it.
Do you use it on Lollipop and use the Alt-tab feature?
That's not working for me on 5.1, think it's a lollipop issue?

Battery settings option gone in MM

Hi Ppl,
I just updated my Honor 7 to MM with EMUI 4.0 and there are too many little changes.
But most important is that the simple option of graph to check the battery usage i.e. which app / screen / process is using maximum battery is draining how much battery; its gone from the settings.
Now, we are supposed to take a lloooonnnnggg route for this basic need.
Use the app phone manager and follow a hell lot of steps to enter a screen which shows separate hardware and software usage.
Do you know any basic app that can help me here?
I want something like this which is no more available on EMUI 4.0

You can use a launcher like Nova and set up a shortcut to go straight to the battery setting.

Well, I'm saying that there is no battery option in settings. Hence, it's not about the launcher but the feature itself

In phonemanager goto settings (icon on top left corner) and select SHORTCUTS (first option). There you can create a desktop shortcut directly to the batterymanager on your homescreen

I'm saying that you can use a launcher to get to that screen. It still exists so you just need to create a shortcut to it.
