Install build prop editor from play store. Scroll down and find “persist.splitwindow.support_all” and set the default value to “true”. Reboot

Unable to install apk?

Downloaded an apk to the root of my sdcard. When I click to install it via ES File Explorer, I can't click the "Install" button but the "Cancel" button works. Any help?

I've had this issue with several. Tonight it was the Samsung S Suggest and Samsung Apps apks. Had the same issue with the Amazon Appstore apk a few days ago.

The two Samsung Apps you reference are system app that need to be pushed to the system/apps folder... Use root explorer and paste them into that folder then reboot. Yay...

Not necessarily true... I side loaded both these apps just fine in EsFile Explorer. Try going into recovery and fixing permisions and clear cache/dalvik, bet you already have install from unknown sources checked, but double check just in case. But in the later, it would prompt for you to change it when attempting to install :/

Blasphemy...
No.. Actually good catch... I misunderstood the app answer and was thinking about system apps. But the samsung Apps is a download-able one. Sorry to OP...

Just tried fixing permissions and wiping cache/dalvik. No dice...still won't let me press the "Install" button. Guess I'll try loading them to system/apps but this is bugging me.

Are you using any kind of brightness adjusting app like Lux or Screen Filter? I found that after disabling Lux, I was able to install the apk fine. Then I re-enabled Lux after.

thx man. Strage thing is that rootexplorer cant instal apk´s with enabled screen filter but with es explorer works both (enablade and disabled Scr Filter). btw i have a nexus 4 with 4.2.2
Same problem with Lux and Root Browser. Had to disable Lux and kill the process with System Panel, then reenable it. Also on a Nexus 4 (this was just the thread I found with a Google serach). Is this a bug with Lux or Root Browser?
It's a known bug with lux

Yeah, what exactly is Lux doing that would mess with side loading?
I found the bug that had been filed for this here. It's marked as resolved. But it's definitely still present for me.

Unable to install any apk
I have the same problem, have tried to install any apk but the "install" button cannot be clicked. Before i installed Battery Doctor app, still able to install any apk. yes there is an option to put brigthness to auto adjust, is it the cause of problem?
another thing (OOT), my wifi always turn off for no reason, what is the suggestion?
N7000, ICS stock rom and kernel, CWM rooted
Thanks...
Yes, install button going disabled is a bug in android systems, not just Lux, or because of any other brightness reducer app!
If u have any brightness reducer app, it results in disabling the install button for installing any saved app(apps from playstore install without any problem).
Disabling this app will enable the "install" button. :thumbup:

Instagram not working properly

Okay so i am on the All star rom 4.1.2 based off the nexus 4.. When i take a picture with instagram it does not load on the app until you upload it. like i cant view it before posting it, so when i change the filters i cant see the difference. i heard you can fix this in the build.prop area. Anyone would like to help me out? Thanks.

Go to developer options and check to disable HW overlays. I had the same issue and found that solution online somewhere and it worked for me.

Removing T-Mobile Mobile hotspot

Does anyone know how to remove the stock Tmobile Mobile hot spot app? My Note 3 is fully rooted. I looked through many threads and no luck...there is no apk for it under system/aps
Download Titanium Back Up from the Play Store and search for it under "batch freeze". Just make sure you have just the hotspot checked or it will literally freeze all the apps in your ROM..

it looks like the hotspot app may be linked into the SecSettings.apk......
I have the same problem & it looks like the hotspot "app" is really just a link to the tethering menu (like louforgiveno was saying) & thus cannot be frozen. The only real option is to hide it in your launcher. I see you haven't posted in a few days so if you've figured out something else let me know

Evil ATT Address Book

How in the heck can we stop this monster short of rooting and debloating? Everytime I try anything with contacts there it is and I have to hit the back button to escape. There doesn't seem to be a way anywhere to kill this atrocity of an app.
Okay, call me stupid, it gives more options NOT to use it once your SIM is active. So used to HTC Dev Editions, or GPE. Mods can delete.
You should be able to disable it through Apps in Settings. What I usually do is just have it set up then in contacts under settings manually uncheck it so it doesn't sync anything.

They don't let you disable it on the G2, I doubt they'd do so on the G3. One of the reasons I ordered a T-Mobile version.
You'd probably have to do a root-debloat to get rid of it.
I rooted and it's gone after some debloating.

Download titanium backup and freeze all of the AT&T apps this way they can be unfrozen when you need to do an OTA.
Simple....root it and use a root uninstall app. No reason not to root

On my LG G3 I had the same problem and later on a friend asked me to do this and it worked perfectly.
Go to the dialer and type *#*#2666#*#*
Select "Registration" and choose "Completed"
And you should be ok.

[Q] Download Booster

I heard that the Note 4 has Download Booster on it, but I haven't been able to find it yet. Anyone find it yet?
I was hoping for this feature too.
I also read that there is a feature to add a few second delay after you hit send in text message app which gives you a little window to cancel sending the text message but I couldn't find this feature either

The s5 had this, not sure about the note 4. It wouldn't really matter anyway tho, because the carriers strip it away
I think I saw an article that only T-Mobile will have the download booster on the note 4, all i found was a smart network switch, don't think it is anything like the download booster.

What does the auto connect to pass point networks option do? Is that networks like restaurants and stores with free WiFi where you have to sign in to accept their terms and conditions?
Edit: sorry for quoting your post I thought it showed it in your picture. But it is one of the options under the advanced tab.

The phone has it just like the S5 but it is hidden. If you use a third party launcher you can unlock it. Using Nova Launcher for example, you can go to your home screen and click add a shortcut > click activities > click settings > then scroll down and you should be able to find download Booster. You can then use that to enable download booster. But otherwise it will be hidden in your actual settings menu until a developer unlocks with a mod or something.

3. Click on Shortcuts.
4. Click on Activities.
5. Scroll down to "Settings" and click on it which will open up a long list of things.
6. Scroll through the list till you find Download Booster. Click on it.
7. Now you will have a shortcut on your home screen that will take you to the download booster settings screen.

It's not gonna show up in your actual settings because it's hidden by default by your carrier. Some developer will have to make a mod to have it show up in your settings but now you'll just have to go through the shortcut you make yourself.

This seemed to keep WiFi on when screen was off. Probably uses more battery.
We need help from the people who actually unlocked it completely on the sprint S5 to unlock it on the note 4.
Thanks what a great tip.

I suspect I may have gotten an update or something is blocking it. I do not see it at all in the list of activities from Nova launchers shortcut menus. Anyone else not see it?
