Dumb little hack to get extra apps - Note Edge Themes and Apps

So I've noticed some apps say they are not compatible with the note edge on the play store.
In case anyone was not aware of you goto build.prop and change your device from tbltespr (where spr is your variant) to trltespr you get more games as the play store thinks you are a regular note 4.
The lines will be:
ro.product.name=tbltespr
ro.product.device=tbltespr
r o.build.product=tbltespr
To
ro.product.name=trltespr
ro.product.device=trltespr
r o.build.product=trltespr

I have a Note 4 & Note Edge and I didn't think of this... Great find... Thank you...

Will this also work on T-Mo? I'll give it a go to see if it works. Thanks for your help.

Like what apps does the note 4 allow that the Note Edge does not?

I think this is the most important question to help people decide to do this mod or not.

I found simcity and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic both would not download on note edge but would on note 4.

No problems, everything I post is for everyone to use as they want
Only reason I did not post there was is such a small dumb trick, figured that would be for things that do something 'more' lol.

Right now the thread has one build prop mod that crashes the camera. Anything is fine haha

Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic has major scaling issues on the Note Edge. It is either too big for the screen, or with gltools adjustments, too small. No way I've found yet to make it scale to the screen correctly, unless theres something like a .ini file saved to the device that you can adjust display size.
It's one of my favorite games of all time.

Yea, just noticed this. I never played it before today, just loaded it up. Odd that it is not working as the screen is equal to the more 4 (pixel wise) anyway.

As far as I'm aware, the stylus in that video is the original Galaxy Note stylus that comes with the US version.... may be wrong on this though... The only difference is the different colour on the thumb button, nothing else is different.
Also, as aalupatti says, the C-Pen will not work with the Note. The S-Pen uses Wacom digitiser technology while the C-Pen is just a squidgy capacitive pen with a finer point than normal. That latter part is crucial because the SIII has a higher resolution capacitive sensor than the Note so can detect smaller points.

Thanks, I don't have a Note. I've ordered an S3, I posted this video here because it was drawn on a Note and I thought it more likely Note owners would know what's going to work on their devices.

Thank you for the insight. I was looking for something like my Wacom pen for the SIII; something like the stylus in the video. Not something that other people seem to want!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
unfortunately the SIII simply does not have the digitiser layer that the Note has, so capacitive stylii are the only type that will work.
Certainly one of the major selling points of the Note!
anyone know what app is that?
That is just a different kind of note application that has an option "sketch" which fills rough gaps to nearyby lines. Pen is original
This is i9220 S Pen. Many i9220 models have gray button.
You can buy it here.

Everyone is having problems with their touch screens. There's several threads about it already. There are some suggestions for fixing it, but they don't work for everyone. Look around the forums for the other threads, they aren't hard to find.

It's a weird problem that shows up differently for many people. My phone works well except for tap to wake, which worked great when new, but is getting worse.
Have you tried different chargers and had the same touch screen problems? See below, I think some problems are related to heat

I suspect your model has less problems in this area because it isn't loaded with carrier bloatware.
I think some of the problems are related to heat. It seems the top of the phone gets very hot, especially on US carriers because of background bloatware, T-Mobile in particular. The screen and camera start to work poorly.
I blocked 95 pre installed packages on my AT&T variant using Debloater and the phone works great except for tap to wake. Sometimes I just have to beat the phone to wake it up.
Do you ever have to double tap or enter the knock code more than once to wake your EU variant?

About to catch fire?

So I have 2 units of the Note 7. One is working perfectly. The 2nd unit not so much. Looks like something is seriously wrong with the battery of this device. Has anyone else faced this? I cant return my Note 7 because I got it from UAE and I donnt live there. Is this what happens before it catches fire? Video here
Oh man that does look serious, does it get hot?

To be fair, anyone can recreate this by making a video with an atrocious sound, have 2 green lines on each side, and then keep the backlit buttons on.
That video shows nothing in regards to a faulty battery.
ISIS will now start buying the note 7 and use them as grenades so that they can smuggle them in commercial airlines

can you tell me how to make 2 green lines appear on each side?
it looks like the phone motherboard/circuit board is burning to cause that.
Wow. This brings to mind another SERIOUS problem I have just remembered.
How many of us have had "problems" with any of our Phones in the past and they have locked up and wouldn't shut down even with the Power Button with the ONLY option was to remove the Battery??
I have certainly experienced this scenario a few times over the years with my Note 4 and 2 and S2.
In fact, I set up a new thread regarding this. Needs to be discussed.
my previous samsung, i think note5, cant remember which model exactly.
in the summer when i charging the phone in the car, the phone gets really hot, but it never catch fire or explode.

there are apps that make the device do this when getting notifications. looks to me like its a poorly coded app, or one meant for older edge screen device. there is even a setting in stock touchwiz for edges to light up upon notifications.
that said, the device could very well be overheated

Hi,
It's like ChatOn, but appears to be specific to Samsung edge phones.
The reason I posted here was to start a discussion.. I wanted opinions and if anyone knew any special features about it then they might mention.. didn't really think it needed to go in the Q & A section because I had nothing specific to ask. Just thought it was a nice touch (only useful to people who had registered for it!!)
ya i got a s7 edge and always wondered about it. my friend got a note 7 and i finally got to try it out. couldn't see any reason why it is worth using

Looks like you will have to use Samsung Pass. This is from the guide.

Yes you can make phone calls over GSM-LTE Network.. its a full on phone app that you would find on a note 9 note 8 galaxy s8+ etc, and you have a true sms aka message app as well. My plan was to make it daily driver, i'm finding it bit to big to carry around. yeah i know lol, my Tab S 8.4 is my daily driver but A$$ Hole samsung havent released an 8.4 verison again.. Samsung suck for that. But other than that the TAB S4 is a beast of a tablet 4k content looks incrediblem i was watching avengers infinty wars in 4k man i could see actors zits, lol you would never notice them on full hd display. Samsung truly has made a monster of a display, on this Tab S4!
Anybody know any good deals on the T8:35? I just got a free smartphone line on T-Mobile just waiting for this baby to be used on lol. I see it brand new on eBay for $857.
