I really like the "Use for all screens" One-handed operation, but unfortunately I use a few apps which requires a "Accessibility Service" which, turns out, breaks the gesture for One-handed operation (please fix this Samsung!)... So my question is... Can that feature be accessed via an app, or another method other then the "swipe" gesture?

This doesn't answer your question, but addresses overall one-handed operation.
Given that it's a bit of a strain to reach across the screen with my thumb (the back button, for example), this is one of the first things I installed
If you haven't used it, it's called LMT Pie. I set the targets to left, right and bottom. You can customize it as much as you want. FWIW..

I am wondering whether to upgrade from my E4GT to the S3, but I worry that I would really miss the search button. I am used to holding down the search button to get a list of my ten favorite apps (using my free FastLaunch app, in Google Play) at any time. This way if, say, I want to switch the audio from the speaker to the earpiece for listening to ebooks in public without headphones or switch screen colors or do some other common function, I can just get the relevant app popping up on top of whatever else I am doing, do what I need to do, and press back once to go to what I was doing before.
Is there any way to remap, say, a long-hold of the menu button or of the back-button to do something useful? With root, of course. (I assume the fsdebug exploit still works.)
I know that there is stuff like Wave Launcher where you wave the phone and it pops up a list of common apps, but I think that would get annoying fast, plus the use of the accelerometer will eat up batteries. I really like launching things with hardware keys...
Long holding home button brings up most recent apps. Assuming you use you favorite apps , it should work.

Like many of you, I love my S3. One thing I HATE is the multitasking implementation. Holding the home button for 2 seconds is tedious and slows down the experience of a blazing fast phone
I have managed to overcome the problem and thought I'd share it in case this issue was frustrating others too. Essentially, it allows you to tap the bottom right hand corner of the screen to bring the multitasking bar up. This can easily be done with one hand, and I find makes using the phone a lot faster
Steps:
- Download GMD GestureControl (there is also a free version, although I am not sure if this will 100% work on that)
- Swipe right to 'custom gestures'
- Set up like this

I hope one of you can assist me with this:
I don't like how much space the keyboard takes up, but I really like the samsung keyboard.
Exhibit A:
{
"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_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If you change the keyboard type to one handed operation, it makes the keyboard smaller and shifts it to the side but it still takes up the same amount of screen real estate.
Exhibit B:
Lastly you can switch to the floating keyboard which is the perfect size but it sits on top of whatever window you are using obscuring information. As such it does more harm than good.
Exhibit C:
(You can select the floating keyboard by long holding on the settings button on the keyboard and then clicking the icon all the way to the right)
What i propose is a version of the stock keyboard that has the same Height as the floating keyboard but docked to the bottom of the screen so that apps reposition correctly. Is there any way to accomplish this? Also is there any way to reduce the size of those huge headers in the conversations? Perhaps even a shorter text field in the messaging app would help as well.

Hello.
This is my first time using a smartphone, and I'm new to IT as well, so forgive me for being dumb.
I recently got a Nokia G20 (Model number: TA-1336). It has Android 12.
Whenever I "shake" the phone, or just move it a little, the screen turns on. I believe it has something to do with motion sensing, but I couldn't find anything in the settings to turn this feature off.
Please help me.
On another note, is it possible to get rid of the google search bar at the bottom of the home screen? Without disabling the Google app, if possible.
Thanks very much in advance.
If this has been asked before, I'm very sorry for causing trouble.
Thank you very much WilliamMike, your advice fixed the first one!
The search bar, however, I still can't remove. The internet says to either install some NovaLauncher (which I'd prefer not to) or disable the Google app (this could break some features I assume).
Sorry for taking up your time, I appreciate your help!

I tapped on Home settings, and this came up:
Any idea where to go from here?
The external screen behaves as a regular phone screen, but the inner/main/foldable screen behaves as a tablet screen, which changes some apps behavior a bit. For example Opera shows tabs in that mode, unlike the fullscreen layout of the "phone mode", and Youtube does not go fullscreen when you turn the phone, instead it just rotate the video screen (like a webpage).
Is there a way to force the "phone mode" in this screen? IMO it is not big enough to act as a tablet.

I don't think that setting tells Android that you want phone resolution so that apps present differently. This setting is more for Samsung-modified apps and global settings screens can split navigation, erc.
It was exactly that, unfortunately I also liked the split view in some apps
Thank you Atthorpe.

Right?, I wish they would make it so we could choose which we wanted per app
