Hi all,
Rooted Note 2 with Omega ROM.
Tell me off for not remembering how I did it but I've got all apps available to choose from for Multi Window. My problem is the apps keep changing. I put say 5 apps in the bar on the side of the screen and save then, the next time I open Multi Window the apps have changed.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Thanks in advance!

Hey guys just got an internation note 2. loving it so far!!
My favorite thing was this little grey half circle on the right edge of the phone. When you click it it gives you several quick shortcuts to common apps. Now it is missing though? Where did it go and how do I reactivate it, also what is it? Is it a samsung thing or just an android 4.1 feature. Any help in understanding this new feature would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

It is multiview option ( to open 2 apps at the same time). It is activated by pressing the back button for 2-3 seconds. You can drag 2 apps from the sidebar to the screen and have 2 running apps then.
It's the multiscreen dooda. Hold back arrow to make it come and go.
You can drag any of the shown apps to the top or bottom screen along with the another from the list. Maps and email at the same time for example.

Good afternoon folks. I am working on a T999 GS3. I am running Dandroid rom and have been looking for a launcher zip file that could give me expanded desktop to add more apps to the home screen and app drawer. I found this LauncherUX_5x5_.XXALJI.zip and it seems to work ok but didn't know if it can be tweaked some more. I am looking to see if the all apps button could be moved to the middle, also to have 6 apps across on the home screen as well. Also I am attaching a screenshot of a page showing that the number page is being covered and the dots that show how many pages you have are at the bottom. Could this be moved up like the original touchwiz format? I am running 4.1.2 android. Hope someone could help me?
Thanks in advance,

I could really use some help on this.. Tried 2 different 4.3 ROM's and it seems to be something within 4.3 I'm thinking. Anyway, When using Multiview and having both app's open at the same time, the notification bar hides. Is there anyway to prevent it from hiding? 4.1.2 doesn't have that problem and it's driving me insane trying to figure this out. If anybody has any ideas on what to try or knows the answer, please let me know.
Thanks all!

On mine, the status bar on top disappears when I have two apps running in multi-view.
However, if you move your finger downward at the top of the screen, the status line will appear.
Then you can open the status window completely with the usual downward swiping method.
I don't see any settings that lets you keep the status bar visible at all times while in multi-view.

Thanks. I'm looking for a way to keep it open while both apps are open. Is there maybe a build.prop entry I could try maybe?

So it looks like it goes straight into full screen mode when both apps are active. Is there a way to prevent full screen mode?

Recently my girlfriend got me new note 8.0 as she said my old tab was sluggish. As a first time Note user shifting from tab 7.7, I found that there are few things that I couldn't find in my note 8.0 like:
1. No quick app task bar - I quite used to open calculator from the task bar and it would come out as a floating pop up window, I could easily drag the window anywhere and closed it once I was done with it.
2. Cascade view multiwindow - As I was using note 8.0 erobot ROM with multiwindow MOD
Is there any shortcut or anything that I can change somewhere? I have tried to look around but still can't find it.
Thank you.
Multiwindow mod

i'm actually the user that ported the multiwindow mod to the 7.7 originally...if u want the same exact experience u had on the P6800 the u can use my mod in the link below BUT unfortunately it only works on 4.1.2 so u would need to downgrade if you're on 4.2.2. If its ONLY cascade mode that u want then its possible to mod the flashbar (left side quick app task bar/multiwindow launcher) to have the dual/cascade mode buttons u are used to seeing in the minimode panel/nav bar...since the left launcher is the default multiwindow mode for the note 8 then i assume that what u want is the bottom quick apps task bar/minimode tray launcher that u have been using on the 7.7 which means u should follow the link below

For the floating calculator? I use pie launcher and aircalc. I swipe from the left to bring out the pie and slide to air calc. Pretty fast too for like 20 of my favorite apps (including floating stickies and evernote and the floating voice recorder). I also use overlay launcher set as a launch point just at the level of the volume rocker so it's different from the lauch area of pie launcher, Use it for specialty apps like tasker and shortcuts to "activities".Then for swiping from the right I use swapps for an alphabetized quick launch bar. Most 1 gig ram tabs and phones find this hard to handle but the note 8 breezes through.
Multiwindow cascade? I'm planning to do that too but still enjoying stock for now...want to wait it out for that new magazine UX that's replaced touchwiz UX on samsung tablets. I hope it makes it to the note 8 during the next update...

Yes, I am actually using your multiwindow mod and like it very much on my tab 7.7. About the tray launcher, Is it possible to make it hidden for note 8.0? Is it compatible with N5120? I feel that the good thing about note 8.0 screen, it isn't block by the task bar like at tab 7.7. I'm still learning to use Note 8.0, but sometimes I miss some part of tab 7.7 that I am already getting used to it. Thanks! :good:

I just downloaded aircalc and tried to use it for my note, but I feel the ads was so annoying, I previously used realcalc and like it so much, thanks for your suggestion :good:
Hi All
Previously had a multi window app on my Tab S, but after a complete data wipe and fresh install it's gone.
Trouble is I can't remember it's name.
It was a download from this forum.
It had a fuzzy green semi circle swipe bar on the right hand side by default.
And brought up open programs down the side.
Anyone know it's name
Cheers
Anyone?
Anybody know what this app might be?
Found it
Omni switch
