Windows 8 - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

Does anyone have problems connecting their note 2 to Windows 8..??
The first thing I tried after installing win 8 was my phone and it connected just fine.. Now 1 day later I can't connect at all

uninstall your samsung drivers, take mouse to bottom right, click on the gear, goto "change pc settings," choose general from the list, scroll down and under "advanced startup" click restart now ----- when the blue screen appears click on "trouble shoot, then advanced options, then click on "advanced startup option" when it reboots choose "disable driver signature enforcement" when the pc boots, install your phone and you shouldnt have any more problems

Is there anyway to make this permanent? It seems to go away upon reboot

yes and no. there are ways around it such as booting that in disabled mode and then hibernating but if you reboot you must follow that procedure again to install unsigned drivers in windows 8

you shouldnt. on reboot you should just be able to plug your phone it and it works. it may popup and search from drivers but once it finds them you shouldnt have to worry with it again.

Nope.. Once it reboots I have to go through the whole thing again. .which is why I asked if you could make it permanent. . It never Looks for drivers again. It does the same thing as before. .nothing. Do the whole procedure again abs it is back to working again. . No big deal just won't reboot hahaha

Screenshot using SDK

I'm new to SGS-II and am trying to take a screen using ddms.bat in the SDK. All my prior phones have been HTC starting with the G1 and all I had to do was plug the phone in and double click on ddms.bat in the tools folder. I have USB Debugging checked. Doesn't seem to work with the T989 SGS-II. My SDK is up to date and works on the HTC Sensation. Any ideas would be helpful, thanks in advance.
EDIT:
I have the T989 USB drivers downloaded and installed and it doesn't show up in the device manager either.

Exactly, barely hold the home button and very quickly tap the power button. If you do it correctly you should see a snapshot animation

Okay, got that but I'd still like the sdk to work. The T989 doesn't show up on Windows 7 device manager when plugged in even though I have the USB drivers downloaded and installed.

Try installing pdanet. It installs device drivers which may relieve your situation. Also make sure USB debugging is checked

I've got usb debugging checked, I'll give pdanet a try. All the phones I've had and rooted since 2008 have always been in the device manager. If I go to my platform-tools folder and with the correct path and cd (enter) adb devices (enter) - nada.

When you connect your phone to the charger, does it charge? If not, then the USB main board is loose or broken. Luckily, it's attached to the motherboard via ribbon cable and can easily be checked and replaced.
If it charges fine, try this:
1) Launch the phone app
2) Dial ##3424#
3) Press "Qualcomm USB Setting"
4) Choose " MTP + ADB "
5) Press OK button

How to get floating multi window

Disclaimer: I am not responsible if anything happens to your phone by following these steps nothing should happen but if something occurs dont come crying to me
First what you do it get exposed framework and install it (look up how to get it)apps shown in first picture.
Second thing is find android ui shown in second picture.
Third thing to do is change the resolution shown in the third picture you can change it to 600×1024 or 800×1280 doesnt matter which and dpi doesnt matter but you can change it to your liking
Fourth thing is hit the save button on top right and reboot and if done right the multi window should have a pin shown in fourth picture.
Fith thing is enjoy and if you followed these steps correct you have floating windows like in the fifth picture

One thing is I found out that recents wont come up by holding the home button may differ on yours but the way I got around it is using gmd guesture control and made my recents come up with 2 finger swipe up from bottom I like it better but that is the onpy bug I have found so far

Thanks for the awesome tip, but quick question...with this mod, are you able to minimize the floating windows, or is there no way to do that?

That's not exactly what I meant. I knew it could do that, but I mean like actually minimizing the floating app, like how you do on a regular desktop OS. I remember I saw it somewhere on the International Note II forum, but I didn't know if it was possible on the AT&T version.
Your probly thinking of pop up browser... you can minimize it
After I make the change and reboot my lock screen is enlarged. Any suggestions?

Change dpi to 260 that's what I did I posted the picture of it

This is pretty sweet. 4 apps running on 1 screen.
