Air Command with SPen not a Circle - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

On my Note 9, when I would use the air command it would open the apps in a circle/fan. On my Note 10 it's opening in a straight line, and I feel it isn't as usual and a bit more tedious to get to things. Is there any way it can be switched back?

As far as I have seen, samsung changed it, no options

That is terrible.. It is so unuser friendly now.

Yes, the circular menu was way better

Is this faux outrage? Or all you really this upset about it?

I am not outraged, or upset, I just liked the circle better

Good one!

Agreed circle was much better. Have to move my whole hand now rather than just the pen.

My head is spinning. You can always try loading the old apk if you really want to go nuts...

Also, once the phone gets UI 2.5, the Pentastic app/Goodlock module has a lot of customization for the S-Pen shortcuts layout.

I.just installed the pentastic module, yes, now the air command can be a circular one, but, it is small ! Although it looks better than the vertical one, the size does mot look right, well, imo

I have a Note 9 and it used to be a circle, now it's a straight line. Help, please.

Install it. You can find it in the Galaxy Store. You can customize the Air Command menu.

What functionality do you lose with non-stock launcher?

Title tells all.
Just curious what others have noticed doesn't work, especially with the s-pen. I know it wouldn't have its own page, for instance.

As far as I can tell the Buddy Pages are it. I'm curious to see other responses as well.

yep. so far only buddy pages are missing (I wonder if that can be implemented)
I feel stupid now. I never used one thinking I'd lose the spen and multiple apps.
I've noticed you can't use the 4x4 Samsung Calender widget either
You also lose draw-able screenshots without stock launcher. The first thing I might really miss. =/

Custom-shaped screen shot works fine on mine on Nova, even with custom DPI.
Odd, mine "thinks" like something is happening, but nothing happens after that.
Edit:
OK so it is working, saving the image...but isn't it supposed to pop up and key you edit/save it and then have the option to share it? Maybe I accidentally turned a setting off.

Here is a question for you guys. that EDITOR that loads when you take a screenshot? how do I INVOKE that?
when I goto edit it tells me to download an editor. I would rather just use the one that comes up when I capture a screen shot??
I'm thinking it was not included with Production ROM. At least, that is what I am running and it's not working.

im having the same issue as you. Cut out image is not working properly. Im on Note Cards V2.0 with Go Launcher Ex. When i was on JellyBomb it was working fine.
The images are created and saved, but that nifty edit & send pop-up is gone. Perhaps an apk is missing. I'll report as soon as I learn more

Not sure what happened to that thread, but I'll drum up the link real fast.
This should work.
Note, I believe this version of the .apk is from the original LJC ROM. I don't foresee and problem with it, but as always, use at you own risk.

Aokp + cm s pen helper + s pen helper = s pen features on aosp!

https://www.dropbox.com/s/eebkzugsm7ek12s/CM S-Pen Addon.apk <--- CM S PEN HELPER. starts a monitoring service in AOSP ROMs so that SPEN helper becomes functional again!

Interesting...
Side-loaded first apk, now the phone knows when s-pen is detached and reattached but 2nd app (from the Market) is a little goofy. I can get it to either put a link to Papyrus in the status bar when pen detached, or do nothing. Neither is very helpful.
What am I missing?
3rd app is just weird, lol
I can see the potential

This is actually pretty cool. I'm on cyanogenmod and I hated how the spen didn't vibrate when it was detached. Now with these apps it vibrates and shows a detached notification plus makes the same sound when detaching(if you have the stock sound files). The third app is nice but it's kind of slow/laggy when you slide it out. I uninstalled it because it made my phone seem slow. If they fix that I will download again
thanks,
dump question, if official 4.2 rom comes out with the spen app for android 4.2, will the spen app be use on the CM 10.1?

MIUI is sort of a combination of the two. I don't know how they do it exactly but MIUI is the only ROM I've found that has features from both TW and AOSP.

Hello I am the developer of the first 2 apps
I have uploaded the first one to the play store now https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tushar.cmspen
And the second one was made for Samsung based ROMs so there were a few UI changes needed to be made. If you update it now it should work fine.
Sorry for the inconvenience

If you could make an app that let's me use HDMI out on the phone, i could say goodbye to Touchwiz forever!!
Both apps now working great! Removing S-pen now turns on the display and opens Papyrus instantly, and closes it when pen is reinserted.
5 stars, and will buy pro version.

Delete Halo?

Now that Halo is open, I foresee pretty much every ROM update to now include it. Personally, I don't see the big deal about the feature and wonder if there is a way to delete it from a ROM either prior to or after flashing. Anyone know?

Well, I understand that. I'm just wondering if there is anyway to get rid of it. If not, I'll have to live with it being there. In my eyes, just not enabling it would be the same as having a Facebook app even though I'm not on Facebook.
Maybe I'm missing something. Is there a way to disable it in settings, so I don't have that icon in my notification pull down?

Its part of the framework. So I don't think so. You could always use a ROM without Halo.

Bummer. I just noticed that at least 2 ROMs I poke around with have updated to include it..so, I'm guessing most will eventually and my options for avoiding it will be limited. Not a big deal and maybe I'll grow fond of it, but I don't think so. Seems kind of redundant to me..I'll just have to learn to live with it I suppose.

Yeah. Its more of a feature that compliments the expanded desktop mode where you dont have a notification drawer visible. But not everyone wants that. I feel the same way.
For example, I use expanded desktop but just the soft keys are hidden, I leave the status bar visible.

yea it is getting baked in as is being done with uxylon, carbon and what seems now to be p.a.c.
while with p.a.c. it is using its PA pulled parts for it, uxylon and carbon have it baked in so there really is no removing it
Like every option, it should have a disable option...

QuickPulldown on Sense?

There's an option on most AOSP roms i've used where pulling down on the status bar from the left or right directly opens the quick settings (pulling down normally reveals notifications). i've seen the setting called "Quick Pulldown" in most custom ROMs
Is there a way to get this functionality (xmod etc.) in Sense based roms?
EDIT: here's an xposed mod i found that adds this behavior

All you have to do is swipe down with two fingers instead of one.

It is impractical to use two fingers. I also wish you could just swipe from the right side.

With gravity box you can pick to swipe from the right or left for quick settings.

I was messing with Sense Toolbox, and even some of those Mods made Bonestock start jittering up a bit. I clean installed and decided that I'm not going to keep noodling around for no reason. Sense 5 as tweaked by Andy is perfect.

yeah exactly. instead of all-in-one packs i've been trying to install specific xmods for the few features i want/am missing.
I like Andy's flashable zips to add things on. All I really needed extra was the long press back to kill. I can't stand idling programs even if Android's memory management and battery efficiency has improved.

S6 theming help

So my question is:
Is there away to get the s6 to look and function like an s6 edge?
The reason i ask is because i had an s6 edge for about a week and i hatted it... not software wise mind u but the edge screen was so anoying, every time i did anything one-handed the palm of my hand would oppen a random app in the side bar. I like the layout of the home screen and would like it on my s6 mostly the sidebar without the bottom screen shortcuts.
Thanks in advance for any and all help

You can flash an S6 edge ROM. Just install S6 kernel afterwards and perform the touch panel firmware update and you can get all the S6 edge features. Some don't work though cause of the lack of extra screen space.

I'm actually quite stumped now.. Grr. Lol. It shrinks the window, but not the content. I'm thinking somewhere in framework.jar, am.jar, services.jar or android.policy.jar may hold the key. I might wipe my phone and try and test the jars from the edge plus ROMs.
