How to play 2 videos / games in splitscreen simultaneously? - OnePlus 5T Questions & Answers

I have been searching for this all this time but still can't find ways to do it. Is this still possible? I need help! Please enlighten me. I'm running Stock Android P v9.03 non-rooted. Hoping for good answers. Thank you!

Depends if the app supports it. If not, there's a developer setting to force resizing of apps. But the current implementation of split screen doesn't allow them to run simultaneous, meaning one game will freeze while you interact with the other. Apparently this isn't the case for Xiaomi devices(?), I've seen someone run 2 instances of Fate Grand Order (the NA and JP version respectively) on their Pocophone F1, but it doesn't seem to work on any other non-xiaomi device.

Apparently android q will bring this feature

[Q] Note 3 w/Android 4.3 Missing the Ability to Add Users/Profiles

I just picked up my Galaxy Note 3 yesterday and one of the things I noticed was the ability to add users/profiles is missing. This is a core functionality of Android and has been present for quite some time now.
I've gone through the settings many times I have been unable to find a way to add profiles. This is especially useful for people who have small children yet still allow them to use their phones to play children's games, etc. If anyone knows how to utilize this functionality within the Galaxy Note 3, please let me know.
Thank you.

Unless I'm misunderstanding you, the profile feature which was added in Android 4.2 is only for tablets (of course unless it's hacked in).
I thought the 4.3 version allowed user profiles for phones too.

I don't think so, as my Galaxy Nexus 4.3 doesn't allow different user profiles as far as I can tell.
Nope.
The feature's only been enabled for tablets. 4.3 brought Restricted Profiles, but it didn't add phone support.

We'll probably get a ROM that hacks it in, don't worry.

It is possible find somewhere/install program like VideoPane (iOS)

Hi all
It is possible find somewhere/install program like VideoPane (iOS)?
I like watch TV Online on Note Pro but want use it in window
Someone know something about this tweak?
Thanks
P.S.: and how stream from Note Pro to AppleTV?
...plz dnt kick me about this stupid questions maybe
I switched from an Apple ecosystem to Android when I bought the note, that included changing from AppleTV to a Chromecast. Using that you can stream to the TV using chromecast supporting apps, and with more apps if you install "Allshare cast".
You can also do full screen-mirroring if you've rooted the tablet and use "Mirror-enable" to allow chromecast mirroring to work.
Android is not as neat in terms of in-built support at the core-OS level for streaming as much as iOS is unfortunately. But most things can be achieved with some tweaking, but I wasn't aware of anything to properly talk to the AppleTV as it pretty much exclusively used AirPlay as its method of communication.
As for VideoPane - you'll get some of that functionality from the multi-window/popup window sidebar thing if you add more apps to it. Not all apps are supported tho. Again, if you're rooted you can circumvent this limitation with a tweak that allows you to add any app to the multiwindow thing.
..and if you go the whole hog and put a customfirmware on like the recent Cyanogen mod, then the sky's the limit - tho there's a wee issue with it at the moment, so maybe hold off until version 11 is released before going down that route.

Thanks buddy for great answer
Great answer.
I'll just add that if one observes the Galaxy Note 4's feature set they'll see something promising; the ability to take any multiwindow supported app that is full screen and reduce it to a windowed application by dragging from the upper right corner of the screen. Hopefully at some point this feature trickles down to the Note Pro and Note 10.1 2014 edition as it would be a great feature to have and would be a positive step towards achieving what Videopane does on iOS.

Newbie programmer and Oneplus 3

Hi.
I am a hobby newbie programmer who would like to make my own android apps.
I say sorry before hand, if maybe some of my questions dont make sense or is a bit weird. Mind you I am a beginner, so I may confuse some things up.
Right now I dont have and Android Phone, But i am considering buying the Oneplus 3 as my first Android Unit.
My question is will this be a good phone to start developing some very simple Android apps on.
I am a bit confused about the Oxygen / Marsmellow OS.
Is the Oneplus 3 fully programable as every other Android phone even it uses the Oxygen OS ?
Can I use a tool like Android studio to develop apps on the Oneplus 3 like just out the box. Or will i have to do a lot of setup and download all kinds of weird stuff before I can get it to work ?
Also are there another phone in like the same price range that would be a better choise regarding i want it to work with Android studio without having to hazzle with all kinds of combatibility problems ?
Awww, your questions show that you'll have a loooooooong way until your first working/usable Android app...

@mic68:

> Yes, fully programable its based on android 6 marshmallow so no problem there

>Yes, you can, but you should first start by reading the tutorials and maybe consider working with the android studio builtin emulator.. the apps which work there, will work on your 1+3
Also are there another phone in like the same price range that would be a better choise regarding i want it to work with Android studio without having to hazzle with all kinds of combatibility problems ?
>in this price range? no.
but yeah, you should really start by reading all kinds of tutorials and youtube videos..

GLTools with the HTC 10 on Nougat problems

Hi all,
Been trying to get Half life 2 to run on my HTC 10 (great game from back in the day which would run perfectly on the 10)
The game is from the catalogue allowed only by nvidia devices like the shield, Half life 2 has been ported over.
GL Tools allows certain games to run by spoofing certain parts of your android version afaik.
In the past you should be able to simply install the APK and the data which would normally reside in Android/Data/Obb but this no longer works as it used to.
I've bought the app by logging into my friends shield and buying it (£9.95 ) so now my phone when opening it does actually see that it's licensed but the game continues to fall flat.
My friend who has an S7 on Marshmallow with the same settings has it working perfectly.
Has anyone used this before? GLTools? OR have any insight as to what settings would best suit our phones?
I'm running Viper Rom 5.9.0 which is Nougat, I may try to roll back to see if it works but if anyone knows of a way around that i'd love to know.
Spoke with the dev who's advised me that android version shouldn't matter but i can't see any other difference between our phones besides hardware, I've changed pretty much every setting, the dev also provided me with a script but that didn't help.
Any advice or experience would help.
Thanks
Bump, I am also trying to do the same but I am trying with a stock rooted nougat rom. Will do anything to make this game work on this device. Any advice?

If you'll do anything then rollback to marshmallow..It'll work. Nougat just does not like half life 2. Simply put.

Very seriously considering getting this phone but I need ask some questions first...

I have an old mediatek based redme note4, so very much due an upgrade. The cameras on this look pretty decent and good enough for my youtube vid work...
But I have one issue i want to address...
On my old Note4 using MiUi ive noticed that A LOT of system programs dial home to aliexpress servers... I assume to Xiaomi controlled servers... Ive noticed this quite regularly when doing certain tasks like using Chrome or email, or installing apps...
Now I want to get this phone, I kinda need to know that there will be some roms going around that will strip all this crap out. Annoyingly though I like MiUI as an interface. I just dont like this phone dialing home as much as it is.
So got the few questions.
As its snapdragon, i realise in all likely hood there will be custom roms. What will my likely options be? Lineage? Will there likely be a MiUi with the nastiness stripped?
And I also, when I root the phone to do all this is there anyway to mask the root? I use banking apps that wont run if the phones been rooted...
Anyway I realise its early day. Just thought I should ask. I might be getting the phone around december or january...
We can expect that there would be xiaomi eu rom support which is debloated miui with additional languages. (Also with their shi**y roboto font)
Custom roms may not be your favor cuz they usually give you same boring aosp experience whatever you install.
Magisk has a "hide" feature that allows to have root and still use Bank apps.

This typically doesn't work anymore, or it works with very high efforts for a short period.
Mine is arriving today and I will be unlocking the bootloader ASAP.
Xiaomi usually let you unlock the bootloader although you have to wait and the custom ROM scene for past Xiaomi devices has been good (I've had both a Mi 5 and Mi 9 and can testify to this).
So long as someone builds for this device, you'll probably end up with a fair selection of ROMs to choose from including customised / debloated versions of MIUI which aren't too bad either
