i also added a shortcut to start programs with name metkosas Power off
Hi,
Thank you, it works.
One question, I press power button for 5 seconds, metkosas power off screen shown. I selected "power off" from option, a messagebox prompt to ask to confirm. I think this extra prompt is not necessary.
Suggestion:
Once metkosas detected program triggered by power button, then immediate shutdown, no more prompt required.
Thank you
it's nice, btw how to change background step by step?
Thanks a lot for sharing
Nice app!

Thanks for this, works great on my Sony X1
Yes i love your application but can you do me a cab file without the picture of the flower?
Thanks Matthew.
I like this background, but I would put big neon-style icones with it, don't know why
Lets say you have your notes, opera browser and a e-mail message all open. Can you "minimize" them and switch between them. I tried, but it kept closing them. I my previous phone (htc fuze), there was a "home" button on the button that you could hit at any time and it would take you to the main screen, then you could click up on the taskbar at the top and choose what open app you want to go to.
Am I missing something here? How do you do it on this "better" phone.
Thanks.
Go to your Task Manager settings. In the "Button" tab, either select "End programs by tapping and holding "X"" or disable "Enable the "X" button to end running programs".
Or you can just press the Home/EndCall button and then switch to the application you want using the HTC Task Manager.
Personally, I copy the file "TaskMgf.lnk" from the "\Windows\" to "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\". And then I map the mute button to this link. So I just press the button when I want to switch between several opened applications.
i use this program...has a really nice and smooth transition between windows...
heres the write and the cab...

Fails to install on my Tilt2 stock ROM (Installation failed). I tried from both the SD and system and I am running .NET 3.5
when you're in those programs, just hit the home botton to get out of it but minimize it. Then you can click on the top right of the screen which is the taskbar, and you see a list of your programs running so you can click on whichever one you want..
Search for a file called ALTTAB.exe.
It will pop u a small window and show an icon where you can click.
It works exactly as it does in Windows, when you press "Alt" + "Tab"

And the "home" button would be which one?
task facade looks cool but how much memory does it use?
i like to keep it simple. I use Spb's Alttab (attached) and have Rhodium Keyboard Controller map my PTT button to alttab.
so when ever i wanna switch apps, just tap the PTT button and icons of all open apps show up on the screen, then either tap on the icon i want to open it, or press the PTT button again for the selection to move over. works perfectly!

Ok, so I opened up Opera and then clicked the "home" button. It shuts down the Opera browser.

the opera browser is usually still running. it is just hidden from the task list. I remember that there was a registry tweak somewhere to force it visible and some cabs made for it. so you would have to try another programs to test this function.

Yeah, you're right. It actually stays open although you don't see it in the taskbar.
I am new to Android and was wondering how to change the 4 icons at the bottom. I figured out how to replace them but I want to keep them there but with cooler icons that I have seen on other handset devices.
I don't want it to interrupt the touchwiz as I like it.
You can't change the Home/Application one at all, but the others you can change in the application view, my handset has gone back to be replaced so I can't check right now, but I believe if you hit the menu button and go into editing mode you can just drag n drop the icons in and out of the tray.

.... is it malfuncioned ?
i'm planning to get one but now u made me concerned
Seems to have been some problem in the ROM on mine, I wouldn't let it put you off - so far I'm the only person to have been affected so I wouldn't worry about it.

Same here, you can only replace the "Phone, Contacts & Messaging". But I don't think there's a problem with that.

glad to hear that man ... thx for ur reply
You can change the 4 buttons below.
1. Get into Menu Mode (not home/torchwiz mode) by pressing the right left of the 4 botton on AMOLED.
2. There is 3 botton below the screen. Press the bottom left button. A menu will appear.
3. Select Edit. All the icons can be edited now.
4. Give any buttons a "LONG PRESS", you can start to move the icons around.
In Touchwiz mode, you can also move the torchwiz icons by just long press and move it around.
I understand how to put new shortcuts down in there, but I want the 4 buttons, just replace the icon so it 'looks' different.
Oh, misunderstood.
So you want to change the 'look' of the icon.
Sorry, that one I do not know.
use Launcher Pro from the market... you will have 14 icons below customized to your liking
Thanks was looking for info on this earlier

Go into applications.
Click the menu button (left 'physical' button), set to grid mode it not already.
When in grid mode, the menu will have an edit option.
Go to that and then you can change the apps on the bottom.
LOL

Hi.
Can it be reverted/uninstalled?
How did you change the screen page?
Thx in advance
It can be reverted/uninstall.
The screen may be changed in "Today" or "SETTING" page of manila and or pick on picture then select " set as today screen" in the popmenu .
That's a nice lock screen image.

Hi,
I have had my Tab S 10.5 for a couple of weeks now and cannot seem to find out how to move/rearrange icons on the home screen or create folders and move icons into them.
I have a Note 3 that has a soft menu button for the Home Screen but I cannot find how to display this when on the Home Screen of the Tab S.
If I long hold on the home screen I get a highlighted home screen and Wallpaper and Widgets option at the bottom.
If I long press on an icon on the home screen I get the usual 'Tap Edit to resize widgets, and reposition widgets, shortcuts, and folders.
I have searched this forum and Googled for this issue but cannot find anything, please help?
Thanks
One way I know to create folders on my Tab S 8.4 is to create them in the Apps list, then drag it onto the Home Screen. Then you can hold-drag your Home Screen icons to move/rearrange the icons and organise into the folder as usual. The 10.5 can't be that different to 8.4?

I can create a folder in the Apps list and drag it to the home screen, but when I hold-drag on an icon I just get the message 'Tap Edit to resize widget etc etc ....'
I contacted Samsung live chat and they got me to to try a few things and advised a long hold on the home screen should display the menu but I don't see it, so they then told me to take it to the Samsung store in Sydney or a repair centre in Granville which are not close to where I live at all.
If I cannot find a fix I will have to take it back to JB HiFi for a replacement, only 2 weeks old so shouldn't be a problem.

Samsung Australia is forced to remove the behaviour from TW, due to patent lawsuit that Apple won in Australia.
If you wish to fix it, you can flash a non Australian firmware with Odin to return the functionality.
Of course a simpler and better suggestion is to load a better launcher like Nova, which is faster and far more functional & customizable than TW anyway.
Please can you tell me what functions have been removed as I get a similar message on my Note 3 but can press the Menu button to access Edit and Create a folder etc?
The Tab S doesn't have a Menu Button, is there a long press to get the Menu option to appear?
Thanks

Possibly your device need a Factory Reset, sounds like it's behaving unusually, because tap and hold an icon intuitively should allow you to move the icons around that page or to the other pages. You said you have researched throughout the forums (and that I haven't seen anyone else with this issue), it may be it's an isolated issue on your tab.
Although, long hold on home screen also does not give me that option on this Tab S and I think on the Tab PRO as well. Same thing when I press and hold the left capacitive button (the task manager button), all I got are Wallpaper, Widgets, and "Remove" trash can.
My suggestion is still Factory Reset before you return the device, unless you still prefer in doing so.

Oh wow, didn't know about that. So silly that Apple.
Anyway, the Task Manager button (left capacitive button, left side of the fingerprint scanner / Home button), which where the usual Menu button used to be, if you tap and hold it, it will behave like a Menu button. See if it's working or whether Australia's firmware is forced to remove that as well, lol.

I believe 3 changes exist on Australian firmware, you cannot edit or change the dock icons, the Samsung Gallery Autorotate doesn't work (the grey rotate icon is greyed out), and It's often been said that camera shutter sounds cannot be disabled, although that may be a global thing.
It was recently mentioned that an update to the Samsung Galaxy S5, had recently again enabled the dock icons to be edited, but I haven't seen any other devices mentioned with a similar update.

So no mention of the Edit menu being taken away from the Home Screen then, or not being able to move icons on the Home Screen.
I have tried doing a factory reset and still have the same issue, is there nobody else in Auz who has seen this issue?
If I long press on the left button next Home all I get is Wallpapers and Widgets at the bottom, no menu to creature a folder etc.
I don't mind using a launcher but I am sure I should be able to move icons and create folders on the Home Screen with the Samsung setup on the Tab S.
Should I be take it back for a replacement?

Alright, I have tapped and hold on a icon on Home Screen, the page shrinks a bit, you can move the icon around, AND you get the 3 option on the top, Create New Folder, App Info, and Remove.
When you do this, you don't get these options?

It seems to be expecting you to access the Menu option to select Edit, but I just cannot find the Menu anywhere.
If I long press on the soft button to the left of the Home button it goes to the home screen add or remove screen, and I get Wallapaers and Widgets at the bottom and Remove at the top.

Well, I also get the Wallpaper and Widgets at the bottom and Remove on the top when I long press the left soft button.
Another thing I would suggest is visiting a store that has tab on display that you can play around with, testing the missing "Create Folder" selection when long pressing the Home Screen.
If they behave the same, then TW is broken for Australia ROM
Not much can be suggested other than what's already been suggested... flashing other stock ROM from different region... or wait till Samsung workaround that ban... which could be never. Sorry, Man.

I have the same issue. Unable to create folders on home screen. When I press and hold any icon on home screen no option to create folder appears. I can create folders in the apps folder but that's of no help on homesceeen
I'm in the UK and had the same issue. I bought my tab from a retailer on ebay. I checked my firmware and it was for Hong Kong. So I downloaded Uk firmware from sammobile, flashed with odin and bingo! TW working with all options avaiable.

figured it out!
I had the same problem but have figured it out. If you go into your apps screen there's a list of options on the top right represented by 3 verticle dots. Click on the dots and one option is to create a folder. The folder will open in the apps section but you can then drag it to your home screen and use as normal. If you delete the folder from your apps page it will still stay on your home screen. Good luck!
