Repost of xperiacle's topic from international. N3
Hello Friends,
Just thought I will share a very simple app I made to enable or add additional apps for Samsung's Galaxy Note series with PEN WINDOW feature like the Galaxy Note 3. For those who are willing to try, please do and would appreciate feedback. I have not tested it on a Note 3 device yet because I don't have a Note 3 so I am requesting for testers.
First, make sure you are rooted with busybox installed.
Second, make a backup.
Third, just download below and install as nornal.
Finally, just tick the apps you want and don't forget to press the save button. A soft reboot maybe required for the changes to take effect.
NOTE: If you have previously edited others.xml or features.xml, you may have introduced some errors to the xml file layout which would prevent this app from properly functioning. Editing the said xml files manually is not advisable due to human error of breaking the xml structure by accident. If this app does not work after previously manually editing the said xml files, then I suggest you restore the original unedited xml files.
For those who don't seem to have a /system/csc folder and either others.xml or features.xml files in said folder, then you may want to try a custom rom that includes it but if you want to try, you can create the csc folder and procure a copy of others.xml or features.xml and put it inside the csc folder.
Have FUN!

Thanks deeznutz1977. I happen to post something about this in Q&A earlier. Maybe Moderator might wnat to combine in this thread as it is better in Apps section. Regardeless, this is a great feature and I'm amazed at how fast development is moving along. I hope that making floating windows is not restricted to Pen Manager. On my GN2 I can open floating window from any short cut I set up (from screen or side bar launcher). This is nicer. BTW, to make your floating window experience complete, do a long press on the microphone key on the samsung keyboard. You are given an option to make a floating keyboard, like on the galaxy note 8 tablet! I had happened to notice this when I was checking it out at the T-Mobile store. Dang! I'm getting mine tomorrow!

Working great for me. Thanks!

I'm trying to take off some of the default apps and I don't seem to be able to do it. anyone else have this problem?

Did you restart your phone after?
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk 2

yes. All of the apps (save one) that I picked were there as well as the defaults.
dunno if it makes any difference, but when i initially loaded the app, it was blank on the side where the selected apps would be. none of the default apps were available to be chosen to be listed either.

floating windows without pen app
Hi. It looks like you can make floating apps without pen using Xposed and Multiwindow manager. Needs further testing but check out my post here

[REQ] working deodexed s memo

The s memo app is currently not working in a deodexed state.
I presume this app has a dependency on the smemoprovider.apk found under system/app .
Can anyone correctly deodex the apps to be functional on deodexed roms?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
(I also tried myself - by no means a developer but it didn't work either)
Why you don't use "Evernote" ?
It have more functions & is on the Market available for free.

It has improved since the last Time I used it but I actually use the drawing feature often and the eveenote version just doesn't compare. Besides I don't believe in replacement, there must be a way for it to function it's bugging me :banghead:

I tryed many of memos from market , to find the best for my needs .
Everynote and S memo was the best i saw , my S memo have some problem , the Everynote is free but with with restriction , so you need to upgrade to premium to use the full features , and its annoying that 99% of not free market apps are permanent licenses as the everynote have 1 month license or one year (
So i really would stick with S memo as its original Samsung and simple as it must be ,...
I really need this memo prog as i have to take pictures of my work and attach files, and make some notes ...so i have a big problem with S MEMO.
If i try to make a new memo , and i take a picture or i choose from gallery i choose then my picture doesnt appearing just blank note ,strange if i choose from my clipboard then its working , .
Another issue when i take a picture and it doesnt appearing i noticed that i'm not in the editor mode just view mode and then if i try to slide the memo left or right to another memo ... i can see the taken picture between the memos in that small column gap in the background , i can see that the picture have the editable nodes etc, so its appearing just somehow in the back of memos so its unusable .
maybe i wrote a bit complicated , but ...
Someone please encounter the same , or have some solution ?? !

Verizon Location Reticle Removal?

Does anyone know how to remove the location icon at the top? From the looks of it, it's a Verizon only thing. I did it to my Thunderbolt, but can't remember how I did or even if that method would work.
Thanks

yup...just make a backup just in case!
Is there a difference from removing the entire reticle compared to just deleting the PNGs? Just wondering.

There's an underlying smali edit that will remove the functionality, and is the "right" way of doing it (at least that's how it was on the Thunderbolt). Also, the PNGs were hidden somewhere in the Thunderbolt, so it wasn't this easy. The result is the same and doesn't really matter to the end user, though.
Worked for me. Thanks OP.

There is a slight difference in that removing the image still causes it to take up space on the notification bar but I imagine with a 720p wide screen you're not terribly crunched for space there.

I tried this and it froze up. I just moved the file into the app file in root explorer, but my phone froze up and on reboot, I had to re-flash the ROM.
Any advice on what I am doing wrong?
When I overwrote SystemUI.apk, it succeeded, then everything froze for a few seconds. When it came back to life, I slowly, and after a few more crashes of System UI, got the device to reboot. On reboot, I got the Samsung logo with the unlocked padlock icon and the word "Custom" below it. When the phone booted back up, everything seems to be working with the location reticle gone. Subsequent reboots have not had the unlocked padlock or the "Custom." I booted the phone into Odin mode and got the following:
Code:
[COLOR="Red"]ODIN MODE[/COLOR]
PRODUCT NAME: SCH-I535
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: No
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
[COLOR="DarkSlateGray"]QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE[/COLOR]
Weird behavior, but it works.
Isn't there a way to use sql editor to get rid of it like the post for getting rid of the annoying wifi toggle thing?

Looking for "shortcuts" developement

I am looking for, or trying to create shortcuts that would open a doc with an app. Example would be to open a specific pdf with "docs to go" I would like the ability to create the custom short cuts and place them in a home screen. I'm running Clean ROM 3.3 with Perseus kernel on i317. I could live with an app if there is one or would donate to development. Sorry if this is the wrong place for thos post or if its a stupid question.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
Are u saying specific files with docs to go.. and other files with same file extension with another app? If so.. that'd be difficult unless u set 'said' extension to 'no' default, so it asks u each time. But if not, read the next part.
If you're just looking to create shortcuts to, say documents, you can do this: probably need a custom launcher.. I think (I use nova launcher but they all support shortcuts). Then download a file explorer like Solid Explorer. Then long press on a home screen, select shortcut, choose solid explorer, navigate to file u want to link to.
Hope that's what u were asking.
I dont have defaults set because I need the system to "ask" each time I open a file. I use quite a few editors for different reasons. ES File allows u to long press for shortcut if you have defaults set. What I need is an "open file with" shortcut. I've never had the need until I bought the Note 2. The size and power has made it a valuable tool and more portable than my tab.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
If your defaults are cleared then it should ask each time you launch the shortcut "Complete action using", etc.etc.
You might want to read the post. You didnt answer the original question, only clarified my response
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
I am the one that must apologize I misunderrstood your response. I did somehow set some defaults. I cleared and both Root Explorer and ES File shortcuts work not totally what I want but will do the trick. Thanks for the help and again, sorry.

[Q] How to create/install custom chat bubbles on s3?

I've read somethings about it
Here's info on what i Have -
Samsung galaxy s3 T999L, Stock rooted with DocHoliday77's [Stock][ROM]Galaxy S3-LTE (cant post links yet :C)
i know they have to be .9.png's (but dont know what that means exactly) and have the background transparent
I know you have to put it in mms.apk (cant find it on my phone) saw 3 people say system/app/mms.apk
Here's what i get using ES File Explorer (cant find it in root explorer either)

So if anyone could direct me to a video(preffered) or thread with a step by step?
or explain how to find mms.apk?
Or if you're advanced make something along the lines of these colors?

okay so i found it - Thanks doc
but from here what do i do?
Yellow's the one i edit? ( a recieve and a sent ) ? and do i have to make a focus png (just highlight edges it looks like)?
Blues the preview selector when you get into message settings>bubbles?
Reds the correct path?
And no idea if i have to edit what the green is showing for backgrounds???
Do I have to have a special program to open .9.pngs? (i have adobe cs6 master)
If I remember right, you're not supposed to mess with the .9.png's. And there is a program I believe to help with them. Youll have to search xda for it though as I don't remember the name.

[APP]Xperia Icon Converter for New Launcher ALPHA VERSION

Hello everyone
Since most of you know, sony released a new launcher with icon support. But sadly, they don't support most of the icon packs. A few created by xda members but it's not a real solution. A while ago, I created a tool for automatically convert those icons with computer help. It's based on java, and it's in VERY VERY early stage of development.
It's not guaranteed that it will work at all, but i tried with my phone xperia z3 compact. And it seems worked all the time.
Known bugs
-App name, app icon is not generating. It's always framed with some sorf of icon.
-It freeze while converting because lack of threads
-Sometimes it can't display all of the installed apps , which is absolutely weird
-Only 1 app can be converted for this time because of package names are same. If you convert apk. Just select none and apply. Then select framed again to "refresh" new icons
For the sake of small tutorial, I used polycon icon pack which can be downloaded from google play
1.Connect your phone with usb debugging activated
2.Press "Connect Phone"
3.App will be listed in combobox (it will show app name in the future ofc, and If possible I will limit those apps to display only icon pack apps)
4.Press convert button. ( It will freeze, I know i didn't implemented threads because i'm lazy guy.)
5.Choose it from icon pack settings
Application will download, convert and install apk to your phone.
Here's some screenshoots

Hidden, because they are huge.
Oh bonus, it developed in java. It should be working at mac,linux(replace adb file with linux adb file) ,windows(not yet)
So, there won't be a download for just jar file not yet. I will give you eclipse project, download it. Play with it. I'm open to suggestions. Code fixes etc.
This is first time i ever develop adb app. So I had no idea how to connect device, get stuff etc. I tried my best my it might be stupid solution, please don't hate me.
PS: I'm college student and I have finals. I just put this because i just developed this for 2 hours a week ago and its been there since. I will continue develop when i got time.
