Just did a widget update and noticed two new widgets are available for download. One allows you quick access to change your profile and the other allows you quick access to
change your ringtone.
How do you do a widget update?
Hit the + then Widget then "Get more HTC widgets".

No problems. To the OP, thanks for the heads up. I have two new widgets on my page and was able to remove some third party one. Useful!
Is there a way I can easily change my phone behaviour from ring to ring+vibrate?
I would like to have a switch but the HTC widget only gives you ring only/vibrate only/silent.
But it's a nice addition in any case...

You can hold volume down until it vibrates.

Yes, but essentially it does the same action as the HTC widget - vibrate only. It doesn't give you the option ring+vibrate.
Haven't read your previous post exactly and didn't see the + sign between ring and vibrate. Your right
this was already available for Legend previously, but now also with Desire. Nothing really new anyway.
i've got 7
coin flip
dice
notes
profile
ringtone
tip calculator

nice to see some updates.
it says downloaded for 'profile ' now but how the hell do you get it to a screen?
if i choose to uninstall it says the homescreen will be reset, but there's no icon for this thing to remove anyway
Update in Germany
I'm in Germany and I've got no Updates on Widgets. Is the Update limited to some countries?

i think this is a common buggg
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.

I updated my Galaxy Nexus to 4.2 using e587de13bf8a.signed-takju-JOP40C-from-JZO54K.e587de13.zip file.
The update seemed to happen fine, and I can access all new 4.2 features, except the Lockscreen widget.
My lockscreen doesnt seem to go right or left. The Google Now bootom-up swipe asks me to enter PIN, unlocks the phone and takes me to thr Google Now window. A back button there takes me to my Homescreen.
Can anyone tell me if I am missing something here?
Thanks,
It's working fine here
Sliding right takes me to the Camera and sliding to the left takes me to other widgets like messaging gmail etc.
Try flashing again. It might help you

When you turn the screen on, you should see two rectangles on the right and left borders of the screen.
Swipe from the clock down to lower your security. Then swipe left or right to access the camera and widgets. To bring your security back up grab the lock at the bottom of the screen and pull it up.

Tried all those and much more, but its still the same.
Other than this, all other 4.2 features work fine.
Same is happening to me and one of my friends (both on takju).
I could swipe from left to right imminently after the update, but after some time i couldnt anymore. Only the clock widget is present.
Can it be because we have corporate email accounts on the phones and it forces the lockscreen to be PIN?
thanks

That might explain it. Even I have my corporate account configured on the phone.
Any way to workaround this?
A few of the roms have the ability for PIE which i assume is a PA thing. I am a currently using PAC and it has the ability for pie, And i see the amazingness of it but i just cant see how i can use it.... I swipe in from edges all the time on my phone for different things and pie will always get in the way of that... It has a "Trigger area" but i dont know what thats doing because its not changing anything... You should be able to move the trigger area to any section of the top, bottom, left, or right sides, like not the whole left, burt only a small section of it....
Also, shouldn't you be able to add additional apps to it? wouldn't that make it even more functional.
Who came up with this? is this a google thing? an OEM thing or did a Dev do this himself? It seems incredibly polished!
Pie can do all that, go into its settings and explore. Ull see it does only swipe in from a certain side and u can assign apps or whatever u want for it.

I guess i wasn't clear, I know that you can pick only one side, but i use swiping in from the side in other apps. On the launcher, i swipe to go from screen to screen, and anywhere I pull down notifications. In chrome, the verge, dolphin, astro I swipe in from the sides. And alot of times I swipe in from top or bottom where I'm scrolling, it just gets in the way alot...
Why I meant was, you should be able to use only a portion of the side or top, like just a little bit of the top or middle of the left side would activate it.
Oh okay got ya. Seems like that would be useful. Contact the dev and see if u can get him to implement it.

What is pie? Browser?
Edit: Ok, got it, Pie Control. Looks nice. I'll try, thanks.
The default trigger is usually the middle side and can be set for left and right not just one side. The trick is not to swipe right away. Just tap the middle of the edge of the screen and it will trigger pie. Then u can swipe to your desired pie action. This way should not interfere with other swipe function. After a while you'll know how to trigger it quickly. I love this app on the note 2 as I do not need to deal with the capacitive buttons anymore or to reach all the way on top to drop the notification bar.

you can change the length and thickness of the activation area under pie settings. make it as small and thin as you like. for me it only activates from the very center of the very edge of my screen which leaves the majority of the rest of the side for swiping gestures

How do you change the length? I dont see any option to change the length. I can only change the thickness and location of the activation area whether its left, right or both. Mine is showing the whole length of the side of the screen as the activation area.

If you're rooted on any rom Google lmt launcher. Its on xda in the general apps section. This app had pie working way before PA did and has a ton of customization. Even gestures. One thing PA does better is notifications. Remember LMT

Hi All,
I have just got myself a fold 3.
I have a few questions i need help with please.
1/. With external screen can a hardened screen protector be put on and if so do i need to remove pre installed protector?
2/. I am thinking of buying this case https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0995WPCXJ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A2SFKRF5TPZMT5&psc=1
Am i correct to say just the basic s pen will fit and not the pro?
3/. Not sure between the standard s pen and the pro.
Want to make sure it will fit in the case.
Thanks everyone
1, if 2, the case will crack the tampered screen protector if overlayed or pushed the protector off the edge.
2, standard fold spen
3, get the standard will do.

So what about Hydro gel protectors?
it depends on the case and dimension of the protector. i suggest don't change. keep the original protector.
Question how do i disable the lock screen pictures in the background.
For the life of me i cant get rid of it.
Thanks

I don't think you can get rid of the locks creek wallpaper, but you can change it to just a solid black picture.
I use Google Voice, but I'm sure there's a notifications setting in the messages app.

Can we stop Auto rotation on the cover screen & use it just on the inner screen?
How can I stop & turn OFF the Google Assist to stop pop up when I hit the Home button by mistake?

1) not to my knowledge. The toggle is in the notification shade. You may want to check in settings for the Auto Rotate option and see from there.
2) Go into Accessibility. Or, go into settings and search Google Assistant.

Search "Google Assist," go down to "assistant settings" and then all the way down to "general ." The toggle is there, bro. Just have to be patient and read through it.

Look inside the good lock app. If you don't find it there, then use the nice lock app.
