I use AOSPA and their Pie, so I don't know that I can be of much assistance. However, I do have a suggestion for you to try. First, which keyboard are you using, and does this problem occur with other keyboards? This is a stretch, but maybe (a) If you are running stock keyboard, it is a system app, and it may be overriding the Pie app's frontal priority (for lack of a better way to say it), or (b) If you are running a third-party keyboard, maybe it is overriding the Pie app's frontal priority because the Pie app was designed to appear on top of the stock keyboard, and the developer wasn't able to design it to appear over (all or some) third-party keyboards.
This is definitely a long shot, but as an avid Android user with basically no knowledge of coding, I typically approach problems like this in a trial-and-error manner. I have major doubts that this will be of any help, but you could at least experiment with other keyboard+Pie combinations to see if it is that simple while you wait on someone with real knowledge to come in and help. Good luck!
This sounds like a q n a type of thread. Maybe email the developer behind the app? May I make a suggestion? If you like pie, why not download a rom with it? For the most part, pie hasmost if not all bugs worked out.
im using stock keyboard & the 2st thing i did was contacted the dev about my issue.
ive trial & errored alot of different ways to get around it.. seems the only thing i can do is disable the correction bar that gives me enough space to show the 1st correction suggestion.
Easy fix. Download lmt launcher and there is a setting in there that makes the keyboard a priority so the pie controls will go behind the keyboard. Like this picture.

Hi everyone!
I've recently bought my beloved Note II in places of an iPhone 4 and I have only two things bugging me.
As you've may already guessed, I seriously need autocorrect.
My experience with other Android devices (namely Motorola Xoom) was perfect minus the astonishingly good performance.
I was able to write quickly knowing that the original Android keyboard will correct every thing for me... but now I can't.
So, is there a way to enable autocorrect on Samsung's TouchWiz keyboard (don't want to lose S Pen functionality)?
Secondly, I only need 5 of the loads of widgets on the notification drawer.
Is there anyway I can modify them to the number and order I want?
Is there any ROM that can fix those problems without losing S Pen apps?
Thank you in advance!
1- No way to enable auto correct in stock samsung keyboard as far as I know. I recommend downloading swiftkey from the android market. It has (in my opinion and many others) the best auto correction/prediction of any keyboard in the world. Granted, it is a paid app but there is a free 30-day trial.
2- You can't modify the notification toggles with stock rom. With certain custom roms, yes.
Just a little info.. the notification thingies that allow enable/disable of wifi/bluetooth etc are called toggles. Widgets are the ones you can put on the home screen.
The problem with having a 3rd party keyboard is when you want to use the S-pen you have to select the samsung keyboard. Try using the continous input option of samsung keyboard, you can swipe which does auto correct / predict.
Sorry to post here instesd of Q & A. Can't find that forum on the mobile app.
Anywho, on normal android OS settings there is an option to hide the navbar for fullscreen apps. Now, the kindle seems able to do this since it does for certain apps that want to use fullscreen. However, this is not true for two things.
Firstly, landscape keyboards don't work.
Secondly, apps like skype and widgetlocker keep the nav bar open, and this cuts off part of the app. On a normal tablet selecting the allowing to hide on fullscreen option works.
Any ideas how to toggle that setting? I can't wait to have a full settings menu back...
Image included is the settings option. This is no way relates to the kindle, since, we obviously don't have a useful OS like that yet just wanted to include it in case you weren't sure on what setting i was talking about.

i REALLY like this, i think it just needs a few little tweaks and it will potentially forever be my first loaded app after a flash
I find the trigger point for swiping sometimes covering buttons a bit ang gets activated without fully intending. What about maybe making it activate on a triple click, or maybe a double click, with the slide on the second click? Dont know how well they would work, but just some thoughts i had to try to solve that issue.
Ahhh whilst just reloading it i noticed the home double click option, i'll give that a whirl
The other thing is that i woiuld like to be able to make the scrolling bars maybe be a little less themed. I've been checking out some similar programs and i just find the scrolling to not quite be as good on this. I'm thinking if the bars were simplified a bit, it could perhaps help that? or maybe it might be drawing them as an overlay, rather than actually using a full side of the screen for example. I do a lot of coding, but havent done any on android, so i've got some ideas, but just not sure if they would necessarily make much of a difference or not.
I'm just about to reload it now, but i'm just trying to remember if there is any sort of option to add shortcuts/actions etc to tabs, rather than just apps, something else to consider perhaps.
there are people complaining in the play store about it being a home launcher, i dont quite get what they mean, (yes it has the default action for launcher applied), but the way it uses it's backup launcher it really does seem to work "in addition" to the backup launcher. I'm thinking they are talking about screen redraws, but i couldnt get any to happen (maybe needs to be running a while longer)
Anyway overall i LOVE your work, but (and obviously it's the message from the play store comments) i'd love to see it be cut back more if possible, to try to avoid any noticeable impact to the system, and for the people on play (who arent really clarifying what they want i dont think) maybe trying to tweak it's interaction with the fallback launcher (i'm not sure exactly what their issue is as i said, i'm taking a bit of a stab)
:good:
reinstalled it just then and disabled the trigger, and set activation to double click home :good::highfive:
disabled themes as much as i could, i'll give it a spin like this and see how it goes.
Yes, I know it's been brought up quite a bit...
This is really bugging me. I had the original Kindle Fire and put ICS on it and loved it. The Honeycomb-style user interface rocks. I bought a Nexus 7 thinking that I'd be able to put it into that mode with KitKat (the point of owning the Nexus # is to have the latest and greatest, right?), but have found myself unable to do so.
Is there any way possible to enable this on 4.4? I'm running into a gap on this discussion; most stopped talking about it about a month ago it seems. AOKP? Do I have to copy and paste the tablet UI code from 4.2 into 4.4?
This is Android. ANYTHING is possible. I know it has the potential to be done.

I was under the impression that google removed the tablet UI from kitkat altogether.
I thought I wasn't going to like the phablet UI but I got used to it, and now it just makes sense to me on a tablet this size. I say give it a chance, you might grow to like it.
I hate it, i'm forever catching the navbar when typing in landscape or passing the device to a friend because of thin bezel, it'd better located on it's side in the same portrait position next to the shortcuts & apps drawer button.

I do agree with this. When in landscape it is in the most inconvenient place possible. I would love a way to force it to remain on the right side but I haven't been able to find a solution other than setting the whole tablet into phone UI mode which then messes with the notifications shade.
If you're only problem is the nav bar, try GMD auto hide soft keys. It works great.

I tried that, not really what I'm looking for. I don't want something that overlays the navbar and hides it when not in use, I want a permanent navbar that just stays on the right side of the screen. With GMD even if I turn auto hide off, it will still hide it when I rotate the screen, and when I swipe to bring it up it always covers part of my dock icons.
Have you tried gravity box xposed module? It gives you the ability to run pie. Or if that's not your thing in navigation bar tweaks it has an always on the bottom feature. It shouldn't be too difficult to make it always on the "short side".Why not ask the Developer in his thread ?

I've used the pie before on my gnex and it was OK. I might give it a shot. Android is starting to feel quite dumbed down lately...

Yep, I use GB on all my devices. I use PIE + expanded desktop when I want to game in full screen. The always on bottom tweak isn't what I'm looking for either. I want it to remain on the right in landscape. I appreciate the input though.

No probs. The part about keeping the navigation on the "short side". I meant on the right (Short Side). It`s worth asking the developer surely
CM10+ and PA had the tablet UI I though and you could pit it on the right hand side. I'm not sure if this applies with the newest KitKat builds though.

Hello guys!
New to (posting in) the forum so unfortunately I cant post this in the developers topic
But I'm hoping someone could help answer a few questions for me
I finally got around to rooting/unlocking/rom-ing my Koodo T989D
Decided to give Hellkat a try as my first custom rom, and so far it is a huge improvement over JB
So many little annoyances now solved
However with that there are a few things that have cropped up that I'd like to change if possible
First is probably the most important thing,
having used stock Samsung android for the last few years, I grew very accustomed to being able to swipe left and right over contacts in order to text/call them, probably my favourite feature really
I understand that samsungs dialer/contact app are very intergrated into touchwiz but thought I'd ask if anyone knew a dialer that works well and has this feature that I could try out?
Second is the camera, I know recently that stock google camera apps have gone to a very 'clean' interface
however when I am trying to take a picture randomly, I find it far easier to change useful settings if they are shown constantly overlayed over the image (as opposed to pop-ups)
one thing I was impressed with by samsung was their camera apps customizable settings buttons (allowing choice in where and what to display)
Can someone recommend a camera app that has settings overlays or better yet that allow customizable settings buttons?
Third is more specific to the HellKat rom I think..
I've noticed when texting that if I go back to change a word (spelling check) it comes up with a pop-up with a few suggestions and also the option to add to dictionary
However suggestions also pop up in the suggestion bar above the keyboard
I would prefer to only have the suggestion bar, and to not have the pop-up at all
I have tried turning off the 'Spell checker' option in input settings but then neither show up
Is there a way to turn off the pop-up? or will installing google keyboard get rid of it?
Fourth is that I found when typing a recipient number into a new text, in 'Hellkat dark theme' the font is black on black so that you are unable to see the numbers you are typing
not a huge issue but maybe someone can let the developer know
Fifth is just that I am wondering if there is a 'lockscreen widget' (like the one for the camera) that is a dialer screen to place a call from the lockscreen
Thanks to whoever responds and I understand if you are not able to answer some of these, any help is graciously accepted
Will try to provide any additional info needed
Thanks!

P.S. pic is the spell check pop-up i'd like to remove!

did you update it thru the rom today? it popped up saying there was an update but not sure if i should mess with it since it took alot to get this thing running smooth haha
if you mean connecting to the external and internal sd cards with USB thru the computer then yes thats working fine (just checked)
for now i have just disabled "spell check"
i still get suggestions above keyboard but no longer the pop-up when you select the word
unfortunately you also lose the underlining of misspelled words
added this as a lockscreen widget and it seems to work very well so far

No that works fine. But I am talking about using an Otg Adapter to plug a mouse or keyboard or flash drive into the phone . This works on certain custom romss on this phone but wasn't sure if it is an option in hellkat
