Stupid hidden function, but quite impressive.

Put your Gnote2 screen off, place it on the table screen facing the top.
Wave your hand over the front camera & sensors.
???
Profit

Not hidden at all, that's 'Quick View' which is an option in the Motion settings. But you're not the first to get excited and post about it here as if you've found the Holy Grail.

this has been posted a few times already

You live up to your name.

It's really delayed. Just swipe quickly and after a few secs it will show. The proximity sensor triggers it as it is lit up red when my phone screen is turned off.

I can do the other motion stuff, just not screen capture. It works with the stylus too.

That's weird.

Thanks.
I figured it out. I actually have to touch/graze the screen to get it to work. Must be the skinomi screen saver.

Yes, that's how it's documented. From p. 36 of the manual:
Once enabled, you can capture any on-screen information swiping across the screen. In a single motion, press the side of your hand on the screen and swipe form left to right. The image is then copied to the clipboard.

[APP] Google Edition ROMs - Disable Button Lights

Simply install the app, run it, and toggle your lights on or off, then your settings are remembered at boot.
UPDATE: 7/28/13
-- Added option to keep lights always on.

Is this mod specific to the GE rom or will it work on others as well?

I made it specific for the ge ROMs as they don't have options in settings. But it will work on others. I'm sure they have the settings though lol. Which ROM are you thinking of?

Nothing specific. I've just seen others asking for the same thing so I wanted to see if linking them here was possible. No worries. Thanks :good:

I hate the back lights being on.I love to just see pure screen.I also painted the Samsung logo and the ear piece and the home button areas that are silver.So now my phone is plush black .I have the black model. Looks clean like a nexus. Thanks goggle ROM.
Sent from my SGH-M919G using xda premium

Thanks, been looking for a possibility to turn off the lights permanently and not just until the next restart of the phone. But now I have the icon of your app in my app browser. Is there and easy way to hide it? I Just have to do the setting once and then I don't need it anymore.

Thanks for making this program.
It didn't fix the issue I was having --- On M919 Tmobile ROMs, the soft keys come on any time you touch the screen. I had an l337M and the keys only come on when you touch them. Is there any way to restore this functionality? I hate having to choose between keeping them on all the time, or off... (I know that wasn't why you wrote this program, but I'm hoping you or someone could point me in the right direction...)

Honestly, not trying to be rude, but.. doesnt that sort of defeat the whole purpose? If you touch the buttons when the lights are off, you obviously know where they are, so why turn on the lights? Lol. Not trying to be rude.. just a thought i had.

I know what you're saying, but that's the default behaviour on the l337M's (At least on Rogers). I read some reviews where someone mentioned the same thing... I don't mind it though. It's better then having them on all the time.

This doesn't seem to do anything on 4.3, does it require root?

Ok root did the trick.
This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for, thanks! I am running stock 4.3 Google Ed. on my AT&T S4 and wanted to use the onscreen nav buttons mod. The onscreen button build.prop mod worked well, but it was annoying have the capacative lights still light up when I tapped the onscreen buttons.
Would anyone happen to know how to disable them completely?

Thanks!! Greatly appreciated!
And to disable the buttons completely, there is a file under /system/usr/keylayout
That needs editing. Can't remember which one exactly. A lot of people actually remap them to other functions to get more use out of them.

[TA-1043] Strange behavior trying to pull down status bar

While the phone is lying on a table or on bed, if you try pulling down the status bar, using just one finger without touching the sides of the phone, it just won't pull down, it would like block the touch for that even though it'd register touches for usual taps and swipes.
Even stranger behavior is while it won't be pulling down while it's lying on the table and the sides of the phone are not being touched, if you even slightly touch the side of the phone and then swipe down status bar, it'd work perfectly. That's one of the strangest things I've seen in a phone.
There's no issues while holding and using the phone btw.
Please answer back if you're facing the same issue or try replicating what I said with your device and report the behavior below, would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

Can you make a video? If I understand your post right, it works fine on my device.

Not able to make a video atm as no other device is with me. Would love for other people to reply as well as I'm pretty sure it can't be my particular device's defect.
I've found people reporting very similar things for surface pro on this thread here if you wanna understand what I'm saying better

Here's a video from someone in the Nokia forums acknowledging the issue I reported and made a video.

Thanks for the video, so, I did understand it right
I tried it again few times, and it works fine for me.

It happens with mine too. But not always lol....

Try turn off gestures?
Setting > System > Gestures > Swipe fingerprint for notifications.

I have not seen this, but you can set the fingerprint reader as a tiny touchpad which can be used to bring down the status bar.
