[Q] Answer calls with home button - LG Optimus G Pro

Is this possible on this phone? I've been googling and haven't come up with a way to do it. My GF just got this case:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Since she can now see who is calling without opening the cover she wants to be able to answer the call by just pressing home.. I see the Note and S3 seem to have this option built in but I've searched through every menu and cannot find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't think it's possible to answer via home button. Thus this cover is pretty useless

Nope, like they say there is an app for that.

Works great also combined it with
Auto Screen On Off
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.danielkao.autoscreenonoff&hl=en
for quick cover functionality like the official quick cover case.
Thanks for the reply though! Hopefully someone else will find this info useful!

sorry if I'm reviving an old thread but could you show me your call settings with
an sq lite editor app? go to phone/ call settings and look for answer_quick_button_key
and tell me what values you can see with the setting enabled.

Erm. Where's the home button on the browser?

I hope I'm being blind but I can't see it. Hell I only found out recently that a long press on the back button brings up bookmarks, history and saved web pages.
Someone please tell me I'm being blind.

I could be wrong, but I don't think there's been a home button in stock browser in a long time (if ever).
Im guessing if you open a new window, it will go to your homepage.

That is a massive tip it's been drving me nuts having to scroll to the top.
Yea I don't think there is a home button. I like the Honeycomb browser and the MIUI Siren Browser where the tabs are visible at the top like a desktop browser.
Not quite the home button but you can type a search into the address bar (with a quick flick to bring to life)
Although I can't answer your question, I like to thank you for the tip. Long pressing the back button is a great shortcut to get fast into the bookmark menu!

p.s not my image, ignore the volume thing.
once enable, by touching the frame, the blue control appear.
the first one gives you opened tabs.
the middle globe gives you the search address bar immediatly,
and the ... give you extra menu.

You should consider searching first.
There is a similar thing on the Development forum already.
Check out for a post saying "Note III phone.apk" or something like that. Maybe you should search in every page.. Works flawlessly on 4.3.
There is one difference. On the note iii apk, the notification pop up comes at the bottom. Not at the top. Hope it won't be a big difference.

Read the instructions again.
Open "Phone" app. Enter it's settings options by touching the menu button. And enable the Call Notification option.
And if you know, it shows the pop up only when the screen is on and you get a call.

Notification that

Hello everyone. Just want to ask if this possible. As you see in the photo, there is S Finder and quick connect. I can't find it on my at&t note 4. Is it possible to enable this feature?

S finder seems to just be a quick search feature and if you touch quick connect it asks to update.
I know. I need the feature to be in the notification side by side like showing in the photo. S finder and quick connect are in the notification for quick access.

Gotcha, looks like the att touch wiz version doesn't get that feature from what I dug up, so you'd want to get a tmobile version of touch wiz and use that
Well, I don't do root stuff and don't know if I need to root to do that. Thanks anyway

Why don't you just do it like this:
S Finder and Quick Connect do not appear in notification panel to be able to place them in the pull down. Both features are disabled on the AT&T version I believe.

No max, I missed it too if you look at the pictures he posted he has quick connect and s search right next to one another as buttons right above notifications not the other menu
Yeah. I saw that. But that is why I asked why he couldn't just do it in the pull downs. Still would take just 1 swipe down to get what he wants.

You are right! I stand corrected. Thanks for pointing that out.
Just click the 4 square button to expand the entire notification panel.
Then you can edit the order with the edit button looks like a pen.
Only the top ten button a will display with out expanding the panel.

[Q] Note 10.1 2014 edition keys do not answer

Hi. My new Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition has a major problem: the Home button and back and menu buttons stop working from time to time. Same thing with the on off button that refuses to turn the tablet off. Happens randomly, whenever the pen is in or out. To turn off, I have to plug the tablet on charger, then hold the on-off button for many seconds. Rather annoying. Had the same problem with my other 10.1 2014.... that I scraped trying to change the battery. Any help will be welcome.

Hi,
Mine has the same issue. Reckon it is a factory defect.
However, I'm using Settings -> Device -> Accessibility -> Assistant menu.
With this function, found no problem to navigate around.
Or,
You can use "Pie Control (Pro)" app or "OmniSwitch" app
in order to use the softkey buttons.
Hope this is helpful for you.

YES! Thank you, it works. When I think that when the first 2014 edition had that problem, I was convinced it was a battery defect and I ordered one new. I opened the case following the instructions, but I was unlucky and I broke the connector behind the Home button. Then, trying to unbend (?) the bottom section, il really broke. I now have two spare batteries... Next time, I'll ask the specialists.

Question Getting rid of a home screen

Hello
I just bought my op9p, and so far we get along.
On my home page, there's a page with Goggle news and things to the left that I do not want.
Does anyone know how to get rid of it? I've looked at many settings.
It is symbolized by 3 little lines, like a menu bar, on the home screen.
Thank you

There's no way to get rid of that page. And I don't see settings. I see a more button on the op launcher

i tried that option, and I only get the options to add widgests, wallpapers, and I see a MORE button, but no settings.
I'm using another launcher for now, but there must be a way to get rid of it.
