S view mods? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hey, I've recently gotten an sview cover and was wondering if anyone has thought of "fixing" s view.
Whats broken?
Nothing really, its just crippled.
I have found that the modded sview services app for the international (I believe) model will run on the tmobile/metropcs variant but touch doesnt seem to be working.
I am looking to get s5/note3 style music controls for poweramp working (or even stock) and a way to change the background without pulling the apk apart.

I'm guessing nobody uses s view then...

Road SMS app

does anyone have the road SMS app thats suppose to be preloaded with galaxy s phones? is there anyway to rip it and put it on other android phones? looks very practical. Or does anyone know of another app that lays a keyboard over camera shot so u can type while seeing whats in front of you?
Thanks
You have to download it from the samsung apps store (i don't think it's included with any firmwares).
I much like the idea of this app, however the keyboard is terrible - no swype and difficult to see the keys, making it effectively useless imo.
If they used the default keyboard and made the background slightly less transparent, it could be great!!!
No firmware includes this app. It's supposed to be downloaded from samsung market. But honestly this app is horrible.

I like the idea of this app, but it seems like it could use some finetuning indeed

[Q] CM7 landscape keyboard mod

There was a mod in one of the previous ROMs I had installed (I think it was CM6.1) that kept the landscape keyboard from taking up the whole screen in Messenging and GChat. It doesn't seem to be in CM7, or at least I can't find it. Anyone have any idea what I'm talking about? Is there a modded version of GChat or Messenging out there with that ability, or does anyone know if the CM7 team is going to be adding this feature?
Thanks
No one knows what I'm talking about? I don't think I was imagining it. It was an option within the app to keep the keyboard from going full screen. Maybe there is a modded version out in the wild I could install?

[Q] smart actions app?

droid razr has a smart actions app. i was wondering if it could possibly work in e4gt. it is a moto app i got the apk out of the system dump that's been floating around obviously it doesn't work as is.
does anyone know how we could get this app working on the e4gt?
There are a lot of appear on the market that do the same thing. Just search for profile appear and you will find a bunch that will do exactly what smart actions does and some that will do even more.
Maybe you will find one that works for you and not have to wait for an appear to be ported that may never work.
i have found tasker and locale about the only 2 apps i found, a perfectly good working alternative.
I wasn't going to recommend Tasker as it costs money, though I bought it a long time ago and love it.

[Q] i got some questions about the UX 4.0 and more

i dont know if this is the right place or the general forum is ,but...
1.does the phone have silent mode? with lolipop silent mode was kind of canceled at stock android smartphones and you could only put the phone on vibrate, but the manufacturer UI still had it...
2.thats kind of stupid one but...one of the things i like about sense is the dialer it does not rotating at all! only when in car mode,so in UX 4.0 does the dialer rotate?
3.one of the features i like about touchwiz is that when you watch a video you can see it while it floats around,i know lg got qslide but i dont know if thats one of the options.
4.what apps coming with the phone and can you remove them?
5.did any of you tried greenify ? why do i ask ,well i tried to use it with samsung devices (actually s2,s4.s4 lte-a,s5 all not rooted) and it seemed like greenify didnt get along with them some why...(keyboard didnt work well,talkback didnt stop working,sms app failure and more)
6.do the camera have burst mode like sense? its not a must have feature but its a nice to have...
7.what are the sort categories on the gallery and on the music player?
8. its not a direct question about the UI but still,som one posted on the general furom that he got an update to his lg g4 i did search on google and found nothing about it,so my question is where can i find update list/changelog/or any thing that is connected to software updates...
9.do the headphone plugin on the bottom is comfortable?
keep in mind few things ,i am coming from HTC Desire so...its a huge step forward, i have bad to good english so i am sorry for the spelling mistakes and those question came from playing with other people smartphones

I will try to answer a few of these.
1.does the phone have silent mode? with lolipop silent mode was kind of canceled at stock android smartphones and you could only put the phone on vibrate, but the manufacturer UI still had it...
It does not have silent out of the box, not sure if that can be changed once root access is found, but straight out the box, only way to mute sound is to have it connected to a bluetooth device
2.thats kind of stupid one but...one of the things i like about sense is the dialer it does not rotating at all! only when in car mode,so in UX 4.0 does the dialer rotate?
It rotates whenever you turn the phone on its side, unless you lock the screen in place
3.one of the features i like about touchwiz is that when you watch a video you can see it while it floats around,i know lg got qslide but i dont know if thats one of the options.
You are able to watch videos in Q SLide, its a small window that floats
4.what apps coming with the phone and can you remove them?
I was given the International Version, so as for what apps come on it, depends on which variant you get, whether its ATT, Verizon, T-Mobile, so on. But I can say with experience, that ATT comes with tons of bloatware.
5.did any of you tried greenify ? why do i ask ,well i tried to use it with samsung devices (actually s2,s4.s4 lte-a,s5 all not rooted) and it seemed like greenify didnt get along with them some why...(keyboard didnt work well,talkback didnt stop working,sms app failure and more)
Have not tried Greenify
6.do the camera have burst mode like sense? its not a must have feature but its a nice to have...
The camera does have burst mode, just have to hold down the camera button, and it will burst until you take your finger off
7.what are the sort categories on the gallery and on the music player?
Havent really messed with this enough to notice
8. its not a direct question about the UI but still,som one posted on the general furom that he got an update to his lg g4 i did search on google and found nothing about it,so my question is where can i find update list/changelog/or any thing that is connected to software updates...
There have been no updates rolled out for the G4 as far as I know, unless you are not in the states, then I do not know
9.do the headphone plugin on the bottom is comfortable?
Its like having the plug on the top, you wont notice it any differently
Hope this helps some

1.sinse i have HTC Desire running GB 2.3 i can not test it out but...i heard that there are alot of widgets offering to add silent mode to lolipop is it right?
It rotates whenever you turn the phone on its side, unless you lock the screen in place
2.ho well i guess i can live with this...
You are able to watch videos in Q SLide, its a small window that floats
3.Yay.

5.you should try it does wonders to the battery life, if you do try it some when let me know(you dont need root for it)
The camera does have burst mode, just have to hold down the camera button, and it will burst until you take your finger off
6.Yay.
Havent really messed with this enough to notice
7.actually the most important thing to me at the music player is folder category and that you slide your finger to move to the next song or previous ,so does the lg g4 have that?
There have been no updates rolled out for the G4 as far as I know, unless you are not in the states, then I do not know
8. this is what makes it weird some one on the general furom posted he got an update ,thats why i wanted to know where i can see upcoming updates or changelogs
Its like having the plug on the top, you wont notice it any differently
9.i can imagin you are probbly right,you can get used to anything.

Sixperience's Ported Note5 feedback?

Hi guys,
Wanted to post this on the dev's page but apparenlty I need more than 10 posts before I can post anything there.. so here it goes first haha
Just wondering how the users who installed sixperience's Note5 port onto their Note4 are doing in general.
I installed v2.0 and it is a very nice port, but seems to have a few bugs/concerns
Camera - Pro mode crashes if I touch focus, colour temperature etc, it will then reject me from entering pro mode again until I reset the camera app's settings. Probably remembers the bad trigger that crashes the app and stays like that until its reset
Camera - Many of the effects do not work, touching the buttons does not do anything and instantly returns to the main view again.
Gallery - cannot play slow motion or fast motion video, it will crash if i try to play it
Widget - I am not sure if this was removed from Note5 or considered as a bloat feature and simply trimmed out by sixperience. Note4 had this scanning document widget (I think it was the basic S note widget) which I could use to take a photo of a paper and it nicely adjusted the colour/skew to create a very easy to read photo of a document/paper notes.
any other users? I believe finding these small issues will help the port becoming better in the coming versions..!
Wrong forum.
haha i know i already said that
What is this port? Is it an app or rom? Sounded like a rom, but after reading your entire post, maybe I misspoke. If it is a rom, then my statement still stands as the AT&T model can't flash a ported rom. Where can I find sixperience's port to look at?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/rom-sixperience-n5-port-v1-0-beta-t3204460
thats the main thread for the rom, its pretty nice really, camera is the only thing about it, i think it is better to just keep note 4 camera if possible as less featured but fully functioning camera is better than more featured but broken camera.. haha
