I just figured a trick and I wanted to share before going to sleep.
You have to be on malaysk rom though.
1. go to settings..display.. and enter the status bar settings
2. Enable the button that switches between apps.
That's it.
Now when you are on call you can press that button and switch to any open app, while still continuing your call.
Home and back buttons are disabled though.
Voila. Good night

Have had this phone for 2 days now, pretty amazing but a few things I can't figure out.
1) Is there a simple way to set an automatic time for the phone to keylock? Say after 10 seconds of inactivity or something instead of having to hold down the end button everytime - Keep forgetting -. Already a few accidental calls due to this. Tried lock me lite, doesnt seem to work properly and I like the builtin lock function, just need to get it to do it by itself.
2) Is there a way to set a key where i can long press to switch from vibrate(and silent) to "normal" and vice versa? I'm already using the long end for locking the device.
Thanks, this has been bugging me since I got the phone.
After seeing this message, and not finding the answer, I wrote my own utility to do this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580050
You can configure long end to popup a menu, which includes lock, flight safe, vibrate, etc...
I'm posting a Vibra (switch) cab that will switch from vibrate to ring. I have it assigned to long send to switch back and fourth. Otherwise I just use the volume keys pretty successfully (I had this cab from my old phone that didn't have volume keys, so I wanted a button to switch it easily).

I have copilot 8 loaded now on my phone , I drive a LOT for work and have to take many calls whilst driving. On my TP2 whils in a call I could switch it back to the nav whilst in the call. How do you do this with the desire ??
Hi I have not found a way to do it automatically which would be great but I just press and hold the home button whilst on a call and do it from there.
Exactly that - hold home and reselect copilot. It doesn't close when on a call so goes straight back to where it was
Co-Pilot also minimizes to the Notification bar, so just pull down the bar and select Co-Pilot to get back to where you were.
Be nicer if it just went back to the app automagically tho...
hello!
when i get a phone call there are some phone buttons in my notifications. i don't know where they come from. i've never had them before. it is a phone button, a mute button, a speaker button and a quit button. and there is a call time counter running on and on, even if i quit the call. none of the buttons do anything when i press them. only why i am able to make them disappear is a reboot. i dont know where they come from. i installed a lot of xposed modules these days, but i cannot find any setting in the modules i played arround with about these buttons.
anyone know them? how can i disable them. i even searched in the dialer settings, but no solution.
So I was prepping the tablet to sell it.
Did the factory reset.
Then when it booted back up to the "welcome to Samsung" screen, I somehow must have pressed a button that enabled some weird feature.
Now whenever I press a button, the tablet speaks out in a voice to let me know what that button is.
But that's all it does. None of the buttons actually do anything.
lol what did I enable? I spent some time and couldn't figure out how to disable it back to regular mode?
EDIT: As soon as I gave up and asked for help, I finally sort-of figured it out.
When you press a button and it tells you what the button is for (but nothing happens), you just double-tap the button and then the button works. I was able to reboot and kick off another factory reset which should get rid of that feature.
For future reference, it's probably something in accessibility (under settings) that you accidentally enabled.
I've got a new (to me) AT&T Note 4 and only after getting it did I realize I couldn't root it because.....AT&T.... Anyways, it's on MM 6.0.1 now and I'm having a massively irritating issue that I can't find anywhere else online for reference. After roughly 15-30 minutes after I restart the phone, 3 things happen simultaneously.
1: Screen rotation stops working (except when I get a notification for textra from the pulldown menu and reply, then in that reply state, I can turn the phone and it will successfully rotate). I've checked the sensors and they're fine and working properly. I can use the rotate app to force rotation successfully and it doesn't matter if I have the rotation icon on or off, it will not auto rotate which makes nav apps a pain in the butt to have to keep restarting the phone for only a few minutes of working.
2: Home button stops working to go home. The physical button still works if I long press then google app comes up, but short press does nothing.
3: Menu button stops working completely, no response at all short or long press.
If anyone has a reference to point me towards or an idea of what's happening, I would love to figure this out so I don't want to throw my phone out the window after only a week. Thank you!
