Disable One Handed Dialer - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

So my issue is I did something clearly and now the Dialer has the Left and Right arrows to move the controls. The Keyboard SwifyKey is fine. Dang if I can find where to change it back. Any help would be great.

Soft Keyboard - simple tenkey t9?

I was wondering if anybody has come across a simple ten key T9 soft keyboard - Ive seen the more exotic ones like tengo, but I would much prefer a simple keyboard laid out like a standard telephone keypad with letters overlaid on it. Is there anything like this available? I've searched as thoroughly as I could through this forum and other places but havnt seen anything yet. Thx!
Is this what you're looking for?
that was EXACTLY what I was looking for - thanks!
And just in case...any chance there might be a left handed skin?

Turn off auto rotate and other manila v3 changes

Hey all. I've done a few searchs and read through a bunch of ROM threads (god, the dutty ones are full of stupid posts by stupid people), but haven't found any real answers.
How do we disable auto rotate / landscape mode in the new v3 Manila?
Is there any way of getting back the old notifications functionality where you click any of the icons along the top, and it brings up a screen with bigger icons for Notifications/Sound/Connections.
Use the old pop up menus? I am aware there's a tweak to make the 8 item menu into a 10 item. Can that hack be extended to 15 items?

If you use Dutty Extreme, then you had to enable the landscape rotate in the first place! In which case, to turn it off you just uninstall the "Dutty Enable Landscape" cab from "remove programs"

Nope, which is a real shame because the new notifications screen is USELESS! the "new text" is not the only thing that's useful to see! You can, however, disable the new notifications menu by going to the Task Manager (built into Duttys Extreme - sorry I can't help with where in the start menu it is because I've moved everything around to my own taste!) then go to Services and change the Notifications thingy to be "manual"

The thread that tells you how to get to 10 items actually meantions that these settings were just how that person had arrived at something that used the whole screen height perfectly. He explained which values change what and you should be able to adapt that to get whatever height of menu you want!
Hope that helps!

I'm using a different ROM now. I'm using the Lite one to try the speeds and the auto landscape is already cooked in. I was reading Dutty's because his ROM was the first to have it. I searched the thread where I got my ROM, but no one seems to dislike the auto rotate *shrug*. I don't mind it except in bed when I'm on my side.

Ok, I guess I'll modify the registry. Was hoping to disable it altogether as I don't find it all that pretty and it's simply bloat. On many apps, the new menus don't fit the theme at all.
Thanks for your helpful suggestions!

In that case, I suggest using AE Button to map one of the volume buttons to "rotate screen", then you can over-ride the auto-rotate on a case by case basis by rotating the screen manually. I've got it set to long press of volume up and down for rotating each way, so if something gets stuck, or as you say I'm lying down, then I can over-ride whichever way I want.

I've tried disabling the auto rotate for all programs, and while it works, it interferes with some other rotation programs. I use kaisoft's screen rotate, and when i rotate something, the orientation gets forced back to portrait a few seconds later.
I've gone back to Dutty's 1.7 ROM as it suits my needs better. I'm finding auto rotation with the new manila has not improved any more since the old gsen/gyrator days when people had tonnes of problems. It's still a hassle controlling what you want rotated.
Thanks
try this which i found somewhere in dutty's thread:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor
Change the autorotation key to 0
this is the only thing changed, i've not tried the above reg.
it stopped the auto-rotation for me and also solved the photo orientation bug while in camera
opera will still rotate
it works!

Yes, this way works. It stop Manila auto-rotation, but it also effects the orthers software.

Thanks for the answer but i already unchecked the option in "TouchFLO" settings and vibration are gone everywhere except the phone application, and that's what i'm looking for.
I remember enabling this on my Atom Life with Diamond Tweak. Maybe it works the other way round as well.
I found it with quick search for "vibration" using total commander.
Its under hklm\software\htc\phone\phoneextendsetting\keypadvibration Change the value to zero to turn off.

Thank you for this find. Have you found out how to disable the vibration on the keyboard in general?
IE: Tapping the Touchflo 3d
IE: Typing when creating a message

Didnt have that problem. Go to setting -> touchflo to make sure the vibrate option is disabled. Also go to input->touch input->options & disable the vibrate option from there.

[ICS] Isn't the home screen supposed to be able to rotate ?

Hi ,
I'm sure I've seen this in several videos of pre-release Android ICS ! The home screen and the app drawer rotate in landscape mode.
Apparently it isn't the case in Android 4.0.1 on the GN... Why, why did they remove the feature ?! Am I missing something ?
[Sorry for the likely poor english, not from here]
EDIT: Seems I can't remove my own posts here for some reason. Slightly rewritten to at least make sense.
There has never been official support for that as far as I know. Some custom launchers implemented it.
What I said above was before I saw you mention pre-release ICS. In that case it indeed seems strange. Perhaps it was buggy?
Home screen rotate
I thought it would as well as am most disappointed , as it actually does work perfectly well when you plug in the mhl cable and turn it into landscape mode. Just dont understand why not without the cable , Perhaps a request to be put in for the next software update ?
Exactly, if you connect it to your TV with a MHL cable you can rotate the screen no problem.

Can you take a picture of the TV screen? I want to see what the launcher looks like in landscape.
I took some pictures, and there is a picture of the lockscreen as well ;-)

It looks quite polished, I don't see why Google removed it at the last minute?
Check your settings, the rotate option might be disabled.

There is no such option. I mean there is but it does not affect the main screen.

There is an option. It's in 'system settings' -> 'Launcher preferences' -> 'General' -> 'Auto-rotate screen'.
Your home screen should now rotate between landscape and portrait. Nice and intuitive setting location, right?

It doesn't work on the home screen. Never did on any official builds. The option is there,but it only affects applications, not the home screen.

Why bump a thread from November ?? And there is no such thing as launcher preferences. You are running a rom that has it.

I didn't really think to mention the rom I'm running. I'm running ICS Passion 10.6. In this rom there are two setting for it, one in 'Display' -> 'Auto-rotate screen' which seems to control rotation in apps, and one in 'Launcher preferences' -> 'General' -> 'Auto-rotate screen' which enables home screen rotation.
As mentioned by joshnichols189, I'm running a rom that has the option NOT an official release. Again, my apologies for the Confusion.

I wasn't trying to bump the thread. I was looking for the answer myself and found this forum post. I found the answer myself afterwards and thought I would be witty and post a response. Of course my response was unfortunately flawed, but still well-intentioned. The thread's only a few months old, I really don't see the problem here.
FWIW, at least on my G-Nex, this app allows the stock launcher to either auto-rotate or be locked in landscape: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.devasque.rotationlocker

How Can I Swipe Anywhere on Home Screen to See Notifications?

Its a pain to swipe down from the top to see all notifications on the such a big phone. Is there a way to swipe down from anywhere on the home screen to see all notifications? Just like in samsung phones?

As far as I know, no such option in stock launcher's settings or general settings.

It's under the Fingerprint ID section in Biometrics and passwords. Huawei gives you a lot of options with the sensor, you can select which ones you want to turn on.
