Just curious as to what everyone has found to make it easier to turn off the M8 instead of reaching all the way to the top for the power button, which can be awkward. I know there is a knock at the top of the screen, but that is almost as bad as reaching for the button. Any other options/suggestions?
Screen off & lock app. Play store.

What exactly do you mean? Are you talking about turning off the screen as BigAl assumed, or are you talking about powering down the device?
use the nav bar on custom roms to change their attributes .
I use double tap on home to turn the screen off, also double tapping the notification bar works (viper rom)

Yes, just screen off/lock. I have a custom rom and they just have the swipe or tap at the top of the screen which is the same as reaching for the power button if not more difficult (tried Viper). I'm on Revolution 5 right now and really like it...just want a better way to lock the device...double tapping home sounds good. Is there a downloadable app or flashable addon compatible with Revolution?

I know there are many in the play store...was just wondering what other M8 owners used before I try them all
i use an app called knock lock. you set where you would double tap to turn off the screen. pretty nice add on for the gesture controls. plus no root needed. i set mine at the center

I use flar2's kernel. Includes sweep 2 sleep the bottom of the device to shut off the screen. No need to run an extra app. He also has a module you can use on stock kernel (need root though).

If you by turning off mean sleep, then:
Swipe2sleep isn't really needed in ARHD rom, as the Sense6 Toolbox allows you to customize the behaviour of the control bottons in the nav bar.
I've just setup long-press the home botton to sleep. Works fine and easier than swipe (IMO)
I use widgetsoid, create an invisible toggle button to turn the screen off which fills the bottom half of my screen so one click off without ruining my homescreen.
I use a Dot View case and close lid...does that count...

Another widget i decided to share with you peoples
I noticed by default there is a "Assistive light" widget for us to put on the home screen. It toggles the flashlight on or off. Well its really dim so i wrote my own widget to do the same thing. This one however gets put on the lockscreen so just swipe over and tap and boom you got a light
May add options for light levels.
Should work on all GS4 variants, only tested on T-Mobile variant.
TO INSTALL:
Simply install the apk, then in your app drawer look for "Flashlight options" and click it to set up your options. (The icon is a flashlight btw xD)
UPDATE 10.28.13:
- Added levels adjustment
- Remove widget and re-add to update after installing new APK
Then create your widget on your lockscreen and profit
Works perfectly thus far and exactly what my phone has been missing. THANK YOU!!

Same for me! Prolly gonna add the brightness buttons to it soon too.
What do you guys think? Three buttons, one for dim, half, and full brightness? Or a positive and negative button to adjust brightness in one by one increments? I think the three buttons would be quicker to adjust the brightness.

Lock your phone by pressing power button, then swipe to your left and you should see the (plus) symbol to add lock screen Widgets.

Any way this can be added to the lock screen where I don't need to swipe to get to the widget? Ideally, I'd hit the Home or Power button to turn on the phone, then either use your flashlight widget, or swipe to go to the home screen. I'm a beginner on playing with the lock screen, but a flashlight like yours (excellent job on the 3 settings!) is really the only thing I'd like to access that quickly.
Any way to use this as a home screen app? Ever since I've been on Android, I've missed the 3-level flashlight I had on WinMo 6.5 on my old HD2.
Great effort on this, thanks!

You can tap and hold my widget on your lockscreen and drag it to the RIGHT most "page" on the lockscreen and it will be the first thing you see when you turn on your screen.
Meaning, tap and hold my widget on your lockscreen, and move your finger to the right of your screen until you see the gray squares stop moving.
Thanks, elesbb! Got it working. Now if I could only get the big clock I normally see to show along with your light, it would be perfect, although it seems only one widget per screen is allowed? Again, I'm a noob about lockscreens.
You really make some cool additions to the phone.

Yes, only one widget per screen, currently working on an app that will hold a widget within a widget (not looking to promising) so i may have to edit the actual smali files itself to add say two widgets per screen. (thats something i REALLY want) so once we finally get a sammobile tar of 4.3, i will be working on mods for my ROM and that is one that i widh to add.

I'm only 5'10 and my hands can easily reach the home button... I'm not sure I understand the issue.
But as far as I know, you'd need to be rooted in order to add in things like a navigation bar, at least a fully working one. Check the app store and see if theres any options maybe?

well the thing is I'm coming for my original 10.1Wifi and have had custom ROM since day one and being able to do the navigation bar for orientation it's always there, not sure I can get used to the situation of having it strictly on one side. Of course it is rooted all 5 of our Samsung phones are rooted and running custom Roms. Before my note3 usually hadn't bought then till the roms where already established. Haven't used Xposed but guess time to learn.

Handy Soft Keys from the play store gives you pop up home/back/recent apps buttons on one edge of the screen. Moveable so you can put it where your thumb naturally sits. No need for root. Not perfect but works well for me given the silly place Samsung put the home button
I use Button Savior Non Root (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smart.swkey.nonroot)
You can set location, theme and which buttons to show - you can even set custom actions.
The only issue is - if you are not rooted, you can't get menu button.

I killed the long press on the menu because I kept hitting it and switching over to S Finder with portrait apps. That is seriously confusing the first time it happens. My wife couldn't figure out at all what was going on the one time I handed my tablet to her in portrait and it happened to her. Then I made the long press home Google Now using Xposed so I could use the search app I really wanted in the first place.

Are you guys forgetting about the Quick Glance feature on the phone? Or is it just hated in general. Does not put any wear and tear on the physical home button, but also wont add to the finger print mess already on the screen. Only drawback is that it does not work if the phone is not on a flat surface (which i think is the case for the double tap feature on the LG G2, i could be wrong though).
I activate this more on accident than doing in intentionally when i try to reach over my phone.
To enable (disable) and customize Quick Glance on Note 3, do as follows:
1. Open Settings and go to Controls
2. Under Motion Control, make sure Air Gesture is enabled, and then tap on Air Gesture
3. Tap on Quick Glance and use the sliding button on the top right to enable (or disable) it
4. To customize the information you want to see, you can check or uncheck the following information: Notification icons, Missed calls, Unread messages, Battery power and Current music info (Time & Date are always shown)
5. To use Quick Glance feature, put your device on a flat surface facing upwards, and when the screen is off, move you hand above the sensor Locate on the top right

Open the home screen you want to remove, long press anywhere on that screen until you see the WIDGETS button at the bottom, press WIDGETS button, then just long press the screen you wish to remove and drag to the top to remove.
To change or add back just do the same, but instead just put a check in the widgets you want adding. HTH

There are 2 screens to the left, you can remove the first one easily. The last one only the widgets can be removed except for one.

Use different launcher. Even custom Roms have that screen. I think it is unremovable.

Thanks in advance!
You could try 'Edge sense plus' (check the play store) to use the squeeze function to turn off the screen instead of launching the assistant. Personally I use nova launcher and swipe up to turn off the screen.
I'm sure there are other alternatives as well, but that's my 2 cents
I use the app called edge gestures on the play store. Works very well for me!

Yeah it does cost some money but I can't remember exactly how much. There is a native screen lock option for Android 9+ and I don't think there is any fingerprint gesture. It's primarily for the edges of your screen.

You could try turning on accessibility menu in the accessibility settings if you don't mind having a small icon to the right of the pill at the bottom of the screen. When you click it, there are several options given and lock screen is one. It's not a simple gesture swipe or a simple double tap but it may be an option.

Tried that, and it works, it appears a person button, and when you press it, it gives a lot of options, and the lock screen is one of them. I will keep using until a easier solution if found. I can not believe android will not include a gesture option for this by default.
I hate to have to press a button to lock the screen, they end up breaking/wearing so fast.

Check this widget out. It is invisible and adds double tap to lock functionality to any launcher.

Works without root in Android P or with root in Oreo and lower. In both cases, fingerprint unlocking works afterwards.
