Nice find. If i reduce the size of the icons they fit perfectly in the edge.set to autohide and your ready to go.
Needs way to arrange the apps in the order you like but good other than that(Lists in order you add them at the moment)

yep, nice find; hope there are more like this coming for the edge!

Great find! And they say the edge isn't very functional.. lol

Thanks! This adds much functionality to the opposite edge and enables both sides to be utilized. I'll be curios to see what the battery consumption (if any) is.

I just downloaded and am going to give it a try, thanks.
I don't want to jump the post but I think since its in the same vein those playing with this sort of thing might want to give Swipepad a spin around the block. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.conduction.swipepad.android You have to buy into a number of different add on apps to get full functionality and I think the buy in is too steep for what you get but if the stock functions work for you it can be a nice add. Right now I have it set up as a grid of work contacts and it functions well in that use.
Edit... Ok, fiddled with the app, totally dig it. If the guy keeps going with it he has a winner.

It just needs more functionality otherwise it is the best i could have found. Thanks to the app developer

Great find, been looking for something similar to when I had my note edge. Started to live by the edge... This brings me that much close to it. Wish we could get/extract a working apk from the note edge. I tried to take the sidepanel.apk but I didn't take... Any thoughts?

Perfect app for the edge....just have to block notifications for it to get rid of the constant stat bar icon. Thanks for the find!

This app is so great. It really cleaned up my home screen. No more need for a favorite apps folder!

How do you get the actions such as notifications or home button working. There greyed out for me.

I did the survey and it didn't work. I hit the x after I did the survey not sure if I was supposed to do that. Should I uninstall and try again? Well that didn't work. lol

There is a paid version i think those are available in it

I like this app a lot and I would pay for it.
Du you now any possibility to disable the dock and to use the full screen like on the Note Edge? May be there is the option to get and install the launcher from the Note Edge

I've purchased the Apps+ version and its good but how do i remove the notification in the notification bar and also from the lock screen?

Go into your application manager in settings. Then choose this app and uncheck notifications.

Hold down tap on notification and select 'i' and then disable notifications for program.

ICS 4.0 & All the Little Things! [undocumented features]

Just wondering for those of you who have the device already, have you guys found some neat features/tricks using 4.0 that haven't been documented or heavily advertised?
I would love to make a list of these features for other users to explore...
Lets get this started
List:
Reserved........
I know it's documented,but it was still a surprise to me - you can now finally delete apps straight from the app drawer, by dragging them just as if you were going to place them on the desktop,but then putting them in the recycle bin on the top.
No affiliation with apple. Or siri.
Sent from my samsung gt i9250 which is in the wrong country.
Nobody's talking about the search app. It's way better than the one in Gingerbread. Much easier to find stuff in your phone : music, app, sms, docs, etc. The old one was returning web search suggestion in 90% of the result... useless.
Search in browser let's you edit suggestion if you want to add something to it. But we lost popular web site suggestion
Just read it on Pocketnow but you can make folders in the favourites bar. Apologies if obvious.
When in the stock browser and you change orientation, tap the screen to make it rotate.

which runs TouchWiz, so it's not stock Android
Rotate the phone to the right whilst in any stock app (so the speaker grill and front camera are on the right). Notice that the back, home and task switch buttons have moved to the top of the screen so that they stay on the right.
When using an ics app hold down on an icon in the action bar to get a description of what it does

Not heavily advertised, but it should be:
The quick control in the browser. Almost the same as on honeycomb. Activate it in the labs settings of the browser. Love it!

This is known about, however you said undocumented and I haven't a single document for the Nexus/ICS apart from on one which came with the phone,telling me how to fix the battery.
Hold the volume down and power key, and you take a screen capture. Which is very handy on occasions

If you tap the volume button which makes the volume bar appear, you can then press the icon to the left of the volume bar and it toggles between ring and vibrate.

In settings/about phone. Tap repeatedly on the android version number (4.0...) then a little android appears. Keep ur finger on it and it grows into a screen animation.
If u didn't know about this,I guess u r now thinking this is a joke. Or is it?
Need someone to test; try swiping the web pages up/down using 2 fingers
, is it a feature or a glitch?

Pie seems great, but...

A few of the roms have the ability for PIE which i assume is a PA thing. I am a currently using PAC and it has the ability for pie, And i see the amazingness of it but i just cant see how i can use it.... I swipe in from edges all the time on my phone for different things and pie will always get in the way of that... It has a "Trigger area" but i dont know what thats doing because its not changing anything... You should be able to move the trigger area to any section of the top, bottom, left, or right sides, like not the whole left, burt only a small section of it....
Also, shouldn't you be able to add additional apps to it? wouldn't that make it even more functional.
Who came up with this? is this a google thing? an OEM thing or did a Dev do this himself? It seems incredibly polished!
Pie can do all that, go into its settings and explore. Ull see it does only swipe in from a certain side and u can assign apps or whatever u want for it.

I guess i wasn't clear, I know that you can pick only one side, but i use swiping in from the side in other apps. On the launcher, i swipe to go from screen to screen, and anywhere I pull down notifications. In chrome, the verge, dolphin, astro I swipe in from the sides. And alot of times I swipe in from top or bottom where I'm scrolling, it just gets in the way alot...
Why I meant was, you should be able to use only a portion of the side or top, like just a little bit of the top or middle of the left side would activate it.
Oh okay got ya. Seems like that would be useful. Contact the dev and see if u can get him to implement it.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using XDA Premium HD app
What is pie? Browser?
Edit: Ok, got it, Pie Control. Looks nice. I'll try, thanks.
The default trigger is usually the middle side and can be set for left and right not just one side. The trick is not to swipe right away. Just tap the middle of the edge of the screen and it will trigger pie. Then u can swipe to your desired pie action. This way should not interfere with other swipe function. After a while you'll know how to trigger it quickly. I love this app on the note 2 as I do not need to deal with the capacitive buttons anymore or to reach all the way on top to drop the notification bar.

you can change the length and thickness of the activation area under pie settings. make it as small and thin as you like. for me it only activates from the very center of the very edge of my screen which leaves the majority of the rest of the side for swiping gestures

How do you change the length? I dont see any option to change the length. I can only change the thickness and location of the activation area whether its left, right or both. Mine is showing the whole length of the side of the screen as the activation area.

Edge Navi (Edge navigation panel with Back Button etc)

Hey guys
I'm new here, so I don't know if this is the right place to post these kinds of threads or may violate minor rules,
so I apologize in advance.
I made an app called "Edge Navigation Bar" and what it does is, it adds an edge panel that has recent apps, home, and back buttons.
I made this app solely for individual use purpose and then thought why don't I share it? So I post this thread.
As I said, this app was made for individual use purpose, and still in progress, so it may contain some glitches,
so let me know by posting replies should there be an issue.
It is free of charge, of course, with no ads so it should serve well as a substitute before some neat apps are developed.
Have a good day!

Pro version is out!
Pro version has all the functionalities of basic version, plus full customizability.
You can register custom buttons with custom actions, icons, colors, placement and etc.
Support the developer, help him earn his daily bread!
Add an Edge Navigation Panel to your Galaxy Note Edge that has a notification / recent apps / home / back / lock button on it!
The panel shown in the first image, is panel 1.
Panel 1 has 5 buttons: 1.Red Stripe, 2.Yellow Layer, 3.Blue Home, 4.Green Backspace, 5.White Lock.
1.Red Stripe: shows Notification Bar (double clicking will show Quick Settings)
2.Yellow Layer: calls Recent Apps
3.Blue Home: functions as Home Button
4.Green Backspace: functions as Back Button
5.White Lock: flips the panel (double clicking will lock the device)
If flipped from panel 1, panel 2 is shown.
Panel 2 has 5 buttons: 1.Red Layer with Slash, 2.Yellow Up Arrow, 3.Blue Camera, 4.Green Down Arrow, 5.White Lock.
1.Red Layer with Slash: kills background apps, clear memory cache
2.Yellow Up Arrow: volume up
3.Blue Camera: execute stock camera app
4.Green Down Arrow: volume down
5.White Lock: flips the panel (double clicking will lock the device)
If flipped again from panel 2, panel 1 will be shown.
To uninstall this app, you have to undo the 3rd Step.
This app was tested on Samsung Galaxy Note Edge SKT (SM-N915S)
Any attempt to install and run this app on any devices other than Note Edge will cause CTD

I have searched and searched to find a way to implement custom soft menu
without root permission but dead end
If you can guide me the way I can definitely make one
Non generic way would suffice if there is general solution
since this app is only for galaxy note edge
This is something nice to have if you guys have root. search xda: LMT Launcher. Fully customizable , must have app for rooted phones.

Glovebox - Edge app

Wonderful app that uses the edge very well for edge swipes. I bought the paid app a long time ago so I don't know what the free version offers (if there even is one lol)
Once you get it set up with the icon packs and folders it's great. I've completely removed all apps and folders from my home screen.
here are a few screen shots.

Another +1 for Glovebox! I tried Apps Bar too -- it was nice but Glovebox has more customization. FluffyR's comment about XS density is exactly what i needed/wanted. Also the fact that it supports icon packs is excellent, i'm using the one i have with Nova Launcher.
Always buy full version. We have a good amount of good devs and the more we support the more good devs we'll have in the future. Great app dn good find OP
This app is amazing and smoother than any other side bar app.

I like it a lot, but sometimes it takes a while to open apps from it, anybody else experience the same?
If I open the app from the drawer it opens straight away, so I expect it to be caused by Glovebox...

I loved the app but looks like there's some issue with my phone or I'm missing out some settings. I have the clock widget on my phone and whenever I use it, it starts from the bottom of it and doesn't covers the whole soon rather just the part below the clock widget. The same happens in the app drawer as well, would love a solution for that.

I am facing the same issue, it takes longer to open a app from glovebox than opening the same app from homescreen even when the app is in the recent app list.
It takes even longer if you have cleared all running apps and then you open a app from glovebox. Another than this lag issue rest all great.
I already bought the app and used it but went back to the old homescreen setup since it took so long to switch between and open new apps

Turn off screen gesture

Hi all. New on this phone, I've searched for this but could not find, so maybe someone here could help me. Is there a gesture to quickly turn off screen (had a gesture on my old nexus that was double tapping home button)?
Thanks in advance!
You could try 'Edge sense plus' (check the play store) to use the squeeze function to turn off the screen instead of launching the assistant. Personally I use nova launcher and swipe up to turn off the screen.
I'm sure there are other alternatives as well, but that's my 2 cents
I use the app called edge gestures on the play store. Works very well for me!

Is that the app that costs 1,77? Wich are the possible gestures for screen off?
Do you have the possibility to use the fingerprint sensor to turn screen off?
Thanks!
Yeah it does cost some money but I can't remember exactly how much. There is a native screen lock option for Android 9+ and I don't think there is any fingerprint gesture. It's primarily for the edges of your screen.

You could try turning on accessibility menu in the accessibility settings if you don't mind having a small icon to the right of the pill at the bottom of the screen. When you click it, there are several options given and lock screen is one. It's not a simple gesture swipe or a simple double tap but it may be an option.

Tried that, and it works, it appears a person button, and when you press it, it gives a lot of options, and the lock screen is one of them. I will keep using until a easier solution if found. I can not believe android will not include a gesture option for this by default.
I hate to have to press a button to lock the screen, they end up breaking/wearing so fast.
Thanks all for your responses, and other solutions are welcome. Cheers! :good:

Forgot to mention though that with it, when you open the camera app, you'll get this '5 second burst' label on the screen that some find annoying but I, for one, don't mind it.
Oh and when you're down and feeling blue, that small person icon seems to be ready to give a hug so just look at your phone. Hahaha

It's swiping/tapping from either the left, right, or bottom of the screen.
I use Wakeup touch Nexus, which, apart from letting you wake the screen using the proximity sensor, also allows you to turn off the screen by touching an icon on the desktop https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wolandsoft.wtn

I use Wakeup touch Nexus, which, apart from letting you wake the screen using the proximity sensor, also allows you to turn off the screen by touching an icon on the desktop https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wolandsoft.wtn

I found this very useful, i mean... not the app but it moved me to find the right one... and i found it!

This one can create a toggle in quick settings... (the padlock) its great!, you can use fingerprint to unlock, and all working fine (no root required).
:highfive:

Thanks, but looking for gestures apps or ways to lock the screen.
Check this widget out. It is invisible and adds double tap to lock functionality to any launcher.

Works without root in Android P or with root in Oreo and lower. In both cases, fingerprint unlocking works afterwards.

It works and adds functionality to accesibility. Nice contribution! Thanks! Although will be using this, i'm open to other possibilities. Loving this phone!
