I would like to add Documents to Go to the Multi Window but the add option only gives me a few apps and not DTG.
How can I add this to the Multi Window?
Thanks
I think you need to root and download multi window manager. That will allow you to add any program to the list

I am not rooted and don't feel competent enough to try.
I was hoping there was a way for those of us without root.
Thanks anyway.

Just use the toolkit found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251033
You were competent enough to create an xda account to post your question, im sure you are capable of using this toolkit. Simply plug your note into your pc, run the toolkit, follow the simple on screen instructions.
Have fun and have some more confidence in yourself!

Not to hijack this thread, but You should check you cf auto root in the dev section...literally takes 30 seconds and you won't lose any data. I root all my devices

The title says it all. The only prerequisite is that you already have the drivers for your phone installed. Which i assume most people looking at this thread do as they were needed to get root in the first place.
Always back up your stuff and any apps before using.
Features:
Restores back to stock 2.3.4
Relocks Bootloader
Removes root
Fixed:
1. Now it will not run when gsm users try to use it.
2. Runs alot smoother thanks to Indirect.
Download this zip.
Extract it
Click on run.bat
and follow the onscreen instructions
now your phone should be back to 100% stock
Thanks to pete for the img files
Thanks to Indirect for the fixing problems with gsm users using this.
so this will unroot, relock, and put stock recovery back on?
Yes it returns it to the same way it was when it came out of the box. So be sure to back up any data on your internal memory you want to keep.
sweet, thanks to you and pete

No problem. I just decided to automate his process. And include all the files you need. Also if anyone needs the drivers just use pdanet as described in the one click root thread
yea i know there are the purests out there that dont believe (so to say) in the one clicks but those of us who are only partial idiots and cant figure out sdk, odin, and whatever else there is the one clicks really help. i know what i want my phone to do i just want the "for dummies" way to do it
It's like a dream come through, I now know this ns4g section of XDA is the best section.
Thanks to Mike & Pete for their Energy and Persistence.!!!

You and me both. I just learned earlier this week that fastboot and adb were drivers that come with sdk. It is confusing without a literal step by step guide. I would like to learn all the processes and make a guide for total beginners. Unless anyone else knows of one already in existence for the NS4G?
I must admit, though, that the more threads I read the more confident I get about following through with it. All of you devs and themers and advanced users, I tip my hat to your knowledge and helpfulness with threads like these.

thanks for this. I wanted to return to stock for the update and did it the long way,because i don't think this was posted yet. I think anyone that is rooting their phone should at least learn how to use sdk and the commands. Im glad I had to force my self to do it that way, but this will really help for the next time with one click root and now unroot its great. I had to root again because it was delayed and cant stand stock
No problem and yes the long way is beneficial from a learning standpoint. But i prefer quick and easy and anyone who wants to learn the long way just open the run.bat file in notepad and teach yourself

Some think this is a lazy way, but some of us have to find work arounds for stuff like this. Right now I'm stuck using Wxp/ home, tried everything I could think of and still couldn't get sdk installed . This helps enormously. I don't mind learning the hard way, but I also like to do things efficiently and save time.

Sorry for this thread and it might be dumb to somewho are a little more savy with odin and computers. I had over 12 android phones nexus, evo,nexus s,g1 mytouch 3g n so on. Never had to root using odin it was usually unlocking bootloader or just using terminal. It would be greatly appreciated if this could happen and im sure there are many people that think same way. So please if u wanna bash me n say i shouldnt root if i cant use odin then fine but this is a new method and so would alot of other ppl cause it seems we have a good development crew popping up roms n mods n kernals right and left. If a bounty is needed i will be more than happy to donate. Ty for your time.

The odin3 method is honestly very simple. You literally can root your phone in less than 3 minutes with the click of a button. I've used terminal emulator and adb methods of rooting and I can say that the only other easier method other than odin3 that I've used was z4. You can do it. Just have faith and confidence. Terminal emulator is much more harder than using odin3.

Just follow directions it is so easy. when I had my sgs4g I felt the same way, then I grew the balls and used Odin. That wasn't to root it was to convert to gb but believe me when I tell you it is easy and pretty much flawless. Just do it follow steps

Why haven't you used superoneclick? Takes 2min.

Odin might be one of the simplest ways of rooting around. Although in the vibrant days it was extremely unreliable. No so any more, its pretty much rock solid.

Superoneclick:

One of the great things about XDA is you dont have to be all that tech saavy and there are plenty of people to help with questions.
However, one should make an honest attempt to familiarize themselves with all of the tools available.
You have nothing to lose and you just might learn a lot from the experience. Then it might be your turn to help someone else
ive had a handfull of android phones also. i had never used odin and i was kindof leary when it came to using it. but it super simple maybe the ezest root method ive used. step out side the box -youll probrobly like it

I've always done manually myself from terminal in os x and I agree it is pretty easy and safer (depending on user error). But it would be nice if Mac users also had an easy one click toolkit. I'd personally wouldn't need it but not everyone wants to manually run terminal commands.

So i am finally pulling the trigger and getting the nexus. I am not new to XDA flashing ROMs or even development in general but i have learned the hard way it is better to be safe than sorry. Anyway I live in San Francisco and will be buying the GSM version from the google play store so i will just fire off my questions.
1. so this would be where i go to unlock root and flash a custom recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1392310 and on the list my phone would be option 7 correct ???????
2. are there any steps that i should be careful on or just take extra care???
3. Any useful tips in general i will be testing other ROMs and Kernels but will probably end up using AOKP and Franco kernel since i know him from a previous phone.
Thank you in advance and anything you think of that i didn't

At least when you do it manually you will know what went wrong and at what step and if you need to ask for help it will be a lot easier for you to get it of you have that information.
And as a bonus you get to learn!
Learning is fun! :thumbup:
There's nothing wrong with the program. It works flawlessly but I know most people on here like to do it the manual way.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
The script is a horrible way to do things. It's slower than using advice and fastboot directly, unless you are a beginner in which case it still sucks because it's much better to actually take the time to learn how stuff works.... makes it easier to fix things later on.

One Toolkit argument:
If you "break" your phone in a week/month/year/whatever...
And come back requesting help...
We're MORE than glad to help.
However, you'll find the process of diagnosis and repair to go much more smoothly when you have ADB/Fastboot set up.
Which is really 99% of the work in unlocking/rooting manually.
If you have a bricked device you're
a ) in a panic
b ) not going to be able to tell if the actual ADB/Fastboot set up isn't working...
Or if your device is broken to the point where it won't be recognized even on a working set up.
KNOWING you have ADB/Fastboot set up correctly is, again, %99 percent of fixing your phone.
If you come in and say "adb devices" doesn't show anything it could be TWO possible reasons, rather than one.
Oh...
And learning ftw.
And the fact that adb pushing items to our MTP phones is sometimes easier than using drag-n-drop.
And...you might at one point need this ability to unbrick =].

Hello, I regretfully make this thread to ask how long it usually takes to get root for a phone without a pc.
Currently, I'm out of the county visiting family and they asked me to trouble shoot their laptop. The short version is that I need to use the ZenFone to mount an image file so I can reinstall the OS. Of course this requires root so I can't do it. And since I have no other access to another computer, I'm stuck hoping to find root without a pc.
Thank you in advance and remember, I'm just asking for general knowledge for the timing for a semi popular phone and I in no way demanding to have it.
Just so you know, before you get yelled at by others, ETA's are generally looked down upon.
But to sort of answer your question, it completely depends on what method was used to root the device.

That's why I was trying to state that I'm not in a hurry. I have never had to wait for a root before so I'm unsure of how long it takes.

True to an extent. I've always bought phones that were 2-4 years old so they had time to mature. Having a newer phone takes time to get stuff so it's an even trade off.
Is there any way to flash the pre-rooted system image without using a PC?
