Good Lock Task Changer Update? - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

I have the SM-N976V (Verizon Note 10+ 5G 512MB). My software was updated OTA to N976VVRU6FUCD on April 14. It has been saying for a long time (for over a month - maybe two) that the version of my OS is so new that the task changer version available within Good Lock is not compatible. Anyone have any ideas when it will be available or how we can find out when Good Lock components are updated?

Yeah I heard that so I uninstalled that good lock task switcher, and then finally found the good lock homeup plugin so I installed that, and then enabled it, it made no difference as I am stuck with the default task switcher, so I rebooted and it still made no difference - it is turned on and doesn't do anything... I use Nova Prime but that shouldn't make any difference... maybe it only works with HomeUI?

select homeui as default launcher. go to home up/task changer, set it up as you wish. if the change isnt visible, reboot, then it should work. set nova launcher as default. this worked for me.

Thank you so much for this! That worked fine. What a PITA but at least it's working!

Just thought I'd let you know how to fix this... Change the launcher to HomeUI, then within homeup changer the selected task changer - then switch back to Nova - task switcher stays changed!

Actually that only fixes it until you reboot and then the problem comes back, so I discovered the homeup app needs to be an allowed to access storage - which resolved the issue. Now it gets weirder. There was last night an update to HomeUp... which only works partly...

It doesn't exist because there's no GSM radio. With no GSM radio, what would you be using it for anyway?

Great. And it can't be used for anything unless you keep digging and find a hidden GSM radio to go with it.

I just need it to run *#0*# to test the tablet
might be a noob question but what does *#0*# do on a tablet?
It puts it into test mode. You can test camera, touch, speakers, prox sensor...ect.
I have the phone dialer set as a shortcut on my tab homescreen. I will post on how to enable it when I get home.

As every pre-installed App: /system/app/. And the app name is SecPhone.apk.

The problem is that every app can define conditions and so also here the app define only be startable with a gsm. Therefore I think you will need root rights. But maybe someone here found a trick.

My tablet is rooted. Yes i know that SecPhone.apk is in system apps . my question how to have it appears in apps drawer.
Here is the shortcut i found.
Install Nova launcher.
Open up apps, then widgets, you will see a widget called "activities" long press that.
A menu will open up, scroll down to contacts, and tap that.
Scroll down to phone, you will see the phone icon, tap phone icon.
Now you have the phone dial pad on your homescreen to enter into *#0 menu.
It will not show up on the app drawer,just homescreen as a widget.

[Q] Just updated to kitkat - no transparent menu bar

Hi,
I just got a brand new nexus 7 32 wifi and it immediately offered to update to 4.4.2. Everything is working except I do not see the transparent menu bar so touted in kitkat upgrade. Is there some setting for it?

Only works on Nexus 5 with GEL.
Download Nova Launcher, it has the option to enable it.

Thanks for the replay. I searched for "Google launcher" in play store, but could not find anything by that name. There is a third party Go Launcher, I am not sure if you meant that.

How to get Icon size small

even on changing DPI to 500 or even 550, Icon size does not reduce, the text on the phone becomes tiny but icons are still humongous, its really poor design, only other option is to use other launcher but there is no launcher with google no integration. please suggest me any launcher with google now integration.
You may nees to use custom theme, best i have tried and liked is mini os theme. As attached.

You can use the Rootless Launcher (Pixel Launcher) if you have the international version. It has the Google Now add-on, so that it looks just like a Pixel phone (short of the menus).

Before you chance to the rootless launcher, you have to go to the permissions of it and enabled them (I think there are two). Once you change the permissions, you should be able to change the default launcher and not receive those recovery error messages.

Question App Gride Size

Did they remove the App grid size form the latest update?
In settings it still shows App Grid Size as part of being a setting in Wallpapers but when you go in there it's gone along with Theme matching beta.

Are you on the latest update? I found it last night (and just double checked)
Under `Dark Theme` I have `Themed Icons`, then `App grid`
It's there on mine just below where the last poster mentioned (@CJ0206 ). The good thing is it now works properly, before it was doing some comically strange sizes and things over all apps

Yeah, I had to update it, wasn't happy with the default settings for the grid layout
I am on the latest update and it's missing from wallpapers.
Clearing storage and clearing cache didn't do anything either
Just to confirm I also have the grid options available. I'm on 5x5 right now. Themed icons look a bit scheibe atm tbf

Yup. There's zero attempt to theme third party icons.
So on your home screen it's either have Google apps on display only or disable themed icons.
What a let down.
(Removed Link)
Here's what I have
I thought it was just me and was debating a full wipe and reload... but I'm still just getting things settled, I don't want to start over.
I can also confirm that I have the latest version and storage and clearing cache didn't do anything for me either. Any other suggestions?

I figured it out: I had changed my display size to small. When I changed it back to default, the option to change the app grid size in Wallpaper and Style returned!

Holy grail hahaha I tried that earlier with no luck. But I did it again and it didn't show.... But I left the settings then restarted my phone and bam!!
Thank you very much
Quick update: I wasn't happy with the look of the default screen size, so I changed back to small and the 'advanced' Wallpaper and Style options are still available. Even after reboot. It's a win all around!

Question A13: Themed icon option is missing?

Hi everyone,
for some reason I have no themed icon option in the settings.
I can only change wallpaper and system color.
Anyone has a fix for this?
Thanks!

Exactly...see attachment.
You also don't have grid spacing. Just to be sure (I'm sure you have but good to check) you've scrolled the page down right?
The obvious covered, I'm stumped. If you go into card mode and click the app info bubble, it says 13 at the bottom?
Are you using a launcher? Many of them won't support the themed icons and the switch will disappear. There are a few ways around this though

I am using Nova Launcher. But I thought since the release of A13 stable it does not depend on the launcher anymore?
i got the same here.not a big deal for me,i use klwp.
thats only work with pixel launcher as standaard.
Pro tip: turn the themed icons on using the pixel launcher. Then switch to the launcher of your choice. The themed icon switch will disappear but the system will still theme them because it's still switched on. Even post reboot. Profit
