[!] Screen off Memo Note 5 ported [i] Unrooted/rooted - Note Edge Themes and Apps

Note 5 goodness on Note Edge!
Enjoy this wonderful app by @xperiacle which gives you the Screen off memo, s-note thingy without unlocking the screen, in an instant! I'm linking the thread instead of the app so you go and thanx him there (and perhaps me? ).
Basic steps :-
1. Change s pen detachment option to none.
2. Run the app once.
3. Profit
Original link by xperiacle- http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/themes-apps/app-screen-off-memo-t3196790
Tested on N9105G 5.0.1, N915F 5.1.1.
Almost every other variant.
Let me know if it doesn't work
P. S. This only works on DEFAULT LOCKSCREEN. If you have any other lockscreen it might not work like Go Locker or something else.

When i pull out the S-Pen the Screen goes on an there is no Screen Of Memory Function. The Air Commander is starting.

Change option to None when S pen is detached.
Then you need to click the app icon once. Next turn screen off by pressing the power button once. Remove spen then it would automatically show the s off and you can write anything you want

915F, 5.1.1, ok.

My device wakes up when I pull out the s-pen, the memo does not start.. Any help?

This thread was created with the intention of sharing a new feature . There has been a miscommunication between the original creator of the app and the one who tweaked it for non-root users. Until its sorted out,I cannot share the apk links so plz do not pm me regarding it. I mean no disrespect to anyone but rules are rules.
I will update the thread as soon as it is sorted out. In the meantime im updating the OP with the original link of the app which you can use by changing build.prop. Further details you can see in the aforementioned post.
Thank you

The new update v1.3 from the original thread works on my Note Edge (SM-N915FY) !!

It also works on N915T

Works on Verizon as well!! Love it!

I have followed the steps, started the application, turned off the screen, everything as instructed, but still the screen wakes up with s pen detachment and the off screen memo does not start.
Any suggestions/instructions???

Yes I installed v 1.3 from the original thread but with no luck to work.
I don't know why, while others confirm their success with the same apk and with different note edge models i mean N915 F/G/T/FY.
I think I have an application that is conflicting with screen off memo.
I will keep trying.

What is your lock screen setting? Turn it to swipe. S pen detach shortcut should be off instead of air command or any other function.

Hi skyhigh73, the s pen detachment option in s pen setting must be put to none. And the app must be click once. If you have done that, then sorry, can't help you there.

I think it needs some lock screen security to work. Swipe will do.

How did you go with problem?

Thanks all for your help.
Finally I got it to work.
The problem was in the lock screen. I was using (Google Next Lock screen application) which was incompatible with off screen memo. I removed the application and changed the native security settings to swipe instead of pattern which was also incompatible with off screen memo. And it worked finally after rebooting and starting the application once.
Thanx for all for help and patience.

Glad you got it working. I'll add it to OP that it works with default lockscreen only.!

[Mod][Fix]Lockscreen fix when accessibility option is enabled

Hi guys! Again here's another mod from me. This mod should fix the lockscreen issue when any apps requiring accessibility is enabled.
Just push the apk in
Code:
/system/app/
replacing the original one with this mod.
Sorry guys was not able to make a flashable zip my phone is the only device I have right now to access the internet(no computer) so would really appreciate it if someone can make a flashable zip for me
Update
Added flashable zip
Download here
And as always... Deodexed ROMs only. Don't flash in a pure stock odexed ROM it will break your lockscreen.

Great, was waiting for this one. thx.
Hi! Added flashable zip
Question....
May I ask what were the issues with the apps using open accessibility? I use Knock2+
and if I need the fix, which out of the two attachment do I need? Do I need to flash both of them? or just the second one as the file name suggested its purposes?
Just come across this thread from a post on the trickdroid forums...
This is great....just installed the zip on my HTC One and its seems to be working perfect at the moment....if theres any issues I'll post up after a days use...
It's made me a happy chappie tonight..:good:
Cheers

For instance, I have a pebble watch that requires the pebble app. The pebble app requires that you start the service for pebble in the accessibility settings. So an option at the top under services you have to turn on. As soon as you turn on one of the services there - as far as I know any service not just pebble - it will make the lockscreen broken. So from that point on just touching the lockscreen anywhere will unlock the device. You don't have to swipe up the lock or clock anymore. And you can't pull any of the app icons up to load into those. It just unlocks the device as soon as you touch the screen. The big problem with this is if the phone is ringing in your pocket. As you pull it out of your pocket and it rubs against your leg/pants, it will unlock/answer the call. Now occasionally I don't want to answer the phone. Its been a big problem.
Thanks to the OP for this fix. You are a life saver! Or at least a sanity saver.

I flashed the zip in the download link and now my phone won't go past the "starting apps" screen after boot and before lockscreen shows.
I even reflashed the rom (dirty) and it won't work. Can you make a flashable file which puts the original files back so I can adb push it on my One.
I am on Trickdroid 5.5.1. by the way.
Please Help.

I have replied to your PM. Please check your inbox
I can't reproduce your problem so please try wiping dalvik cache or deleting the folder /data/data/com.htc.idlescreen.base/
And if it still persists try doing a factory reset instead.
Doing a dirty install of the Trickdroid ROM should have restored the original lockscreen app so I'm pretty sure it's something to do with your dalvik-cache.
Just try wiping dalvik-cache for now it shouldn't delete anything so it's safe.
So I guess the fix can only be used if you're rooted and that sucks cause I am not

Is there a specific place to report these bugs? I mentioned this issue to them on the technical support form, but I'm not sure if it's the right place.
Either way, thanks for the help OP.
Yes it should be on the technical support.

I was wondering if this mod would negate the option to disable exchange server security? I've flashed trickdroid and applied this mod, but now my exchange server is requiring a password/pin on unlock. I'd like to be able to disable this when I'm home in tasker and I have that setup, but now it doesn't work. I think it was this mod that removed that feature from TrickDroid. Do you know the answer?
@Riyal since installing this fix I have a problem with the proximity sensor while on a call. Sometimes the screen goes black as soon as the call connects and the screen doesn't come back on. Sometimes the screen doesn't turn off when I hold the phone to my face and sometimes it does turn off but won't turn on again.
Is this problem related to this fix? Is anyone else experiencing this?

Hi! I'm not sure about the exchange server mod as I am not using it. I'll take a look at the mod soon and see what was modified on it and see if it conflicts with my mod.
And by the way could you give me a tutorial/guide on how and where to get an exchange account to test? Pardon but I don't really use that feature at all.
Anyways I am using exchange activesync on my phone right now but only using live.com account. And I'm not sure if having a private exchange server is needed.

(APP) LMT launcher

Just tried LMT Launcher which works really well alongside the ones sense 5 launcher, it adds a lot of functionality which just works so well once your used to it and you set apps that you'll like.
Here is the link to the said app and i'm in no way affiliated with the development i just wanted to share something i'd found.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150
for me to get it to work properly here the settings i activated, everything else is left at stock and i'm running the newest version.
Autostart - enabled
Gesture input - No known device yet
Activation area thickness - 40
ISA 11 - checked
then all your left with is what you want to set to your short cuts.
I haven't bothered with gestures but there are so many options it's insane.
Well done to the dev who made it, working well here
I love LMT. I used it on my Hercules, and soon as I rooted, I put it on my one. I love being able to launch everything and not having to clutter up my home screen. I never ventured into anything but the pie launcher, so I can't offer any help besides there.
Is there a way to have lmt launch the app gallery? Can't seem to find that option

You have to launch it as an activity. So go to activity, gallery, then choose the main launcher one. It's the second I believe.
I'm quite new to it m8, you'd be better off asking in the thread I've mentioned.

I have been using it for a while now and have had zero hiccups at all everything works as it should.
So weird, but I can't seem to get it to work at all. I'm very familiar with the app, having used it on the last couple of phones through multiple roms. I've tried 2 different Sense roms and 2 different AOSP based, with no luck. Everything starts and stops like it should, it just won't activate when I swipe across the area. Ah well, nature of the beast, I guess. I'll keep messing with it...
YouTube app launch
I recently got my HTC One and unlocked bootloader/rooted.
Installed LMT launcher so I could get the Pie Controls - they look awesome and keep my homescreen clean.
So far so good, I've set all 10 pie segments to launch apps.
All of them work, except for YouTube.
Tried assigning it to various different pie segments but never works.
All other apps launch successfully so not sure why YouTube won't.
I've not got a high enough post count yet to post on the main LMT thread posted by the OP so hoping one of you guys might know why this is happening... Or if anyone else has YouTube launching successfully via LMT Pie Controls.
Cheers

Hi guys.
I have LMT included in my ROM for HTC One. I made a video on how to configure it. hope this helps you
The video is recorded on a Nexus 10, but the idea is the same.
I loved using PIE/LMT on my Nexus 4. I wish we didn't have the hard nav bar on our One. That extra space looked awesome on the N4.

can gestures use on one?
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
LMT is great on the One, especially with that huge HTC logo
The only downside is that you still need to be able to assign one of the buttons to menu to get rid of the three dot bar in apps like facebook. If you don't do that then the three dot menu bar gets in the way of LMT and you can't use from the bottom in those apps
As a little workaround on 4.2.2 to keep a long press on home for Google Now, I am using Paul's Xposed mod designed for 4.1.2 and assigning a long press of the back button to menu. Long press for menu doesn't work on 4.2.2 roms, but it still gets rid of the annoying three dot menu bar.
Another quick tip:
To get one of the pie segments to turn off the screen, use keycode 26 in Advanced Commands: Key
That saves a lot of finger acrobatics to get up to the top of the phone. Along with the volume buttons to wake this is great for anyone with small fingers
Any idea how to get the Dialer to come up? I've tried everything I can think of to no avail.

Assign your pie segment as 'activity'
Then go down till you find 'people'

LMT Script for launching the Power Menu (shutdown/reboot)
Just an FYI for anyone with a HTC One (M7) that wants to use LMT to call up the APM (Simulate long press power button) this is the script code to use:
sendevent /dev/input/event2 1 116 1
sendevent /dev/input/event2 0 0 0
sleep 1
sendevent /dev/input/event2 1 116 0

The main LMT thread has mostly Nexus and Galaxy events so it took me a little time to find this out for the One.
Hopefully this post will help anyone searching for LMT Power Menu script on the One.

Need help with screen shot editing(SOLVED, I'm an idiot)

From the time I've got the note 8, I've always been able to just take a screenshot and right after that it'd open my screenshot and i'd be able to edit it straight away (drawing on it etc.). However, for the past few hours now, that doesn't work anymore, initially it stopped opening the screenshots straight away but, it would show up in the notification panel and I'd click on it and be able to edit it like before. But now even that doesn't work it shows up in the notification panel and I click on it and it give different apps to open it with (paper artist etc.). Any suggestions? I haven't installed or uninstalled anything recently, I'm running the stock rom. I haven't touched anything to be honest but, it changed all of a sudden. Am planning of doing a factory reset, but I'd rather not. I'll be really grateful for any help.
edit:-ok, if I click edit it only opens with paper artist
I just a factory reset, but even that didn't help. Any ideas? Anyone please help, I'm desperate

Hmm i had never thought of that, I had been taking the screenshots using the swipe screen method. I just tried using the s-pen and it worked like before. I used to take the screen shots like that before(s-pen) and only recently started using the swipe screen method. My memory tells me I edited the screen shots the same way using the two methods, but I'm pretty sure my memory's wrong. Thank you so much,this had me bugging out.
Just wondering, when you take a screen shot using the swipe screen method on your phone, does it let you edit like it does normally(using the s-pen) or does is bring up the choose app thing?
Anyway thanks non the less, much appriciated.

SideSync 3.0 and Note 3

I've been using the 8.4 for a few days now and while I really enjoy the SideSync feature to sync up my Note 3 phone when it's not on hand, I haven't been able to open a keyboard to actually type anything, respond to a text message etc.

Does your battery on your note 3 not like just drop like a rock? Seems for me when it is connected by wifi direct it just drops like a rock.
I found the solution. I installed a S5 keyboard on my note 3 and it worked after that. I'm running Effortless rom on my t-mobile note 3, that's where I got the keyboard linked below.

To install that particular zip, you need root. It needs to write that keyboard to the system folder which is only writable if you have root

"Transform into" and Auto shape options in S-Note suddenly gone after 5.1.1 update

"Transform into" and Auto shape options in S-Note suddenly gone after 5.1.1 update
Hi, just updated my device to the latest 5.1.1 Android version,
and for some peculiar reason, some features in the S-Note app are suddenly gone,
such as the "transform into" option that was extremely useful to me.
Done some googling and saw that the app used to have an extension pack option,
though nothing like that exists now in the app.
Any sort of help would be much appreciated.

This cannot be. I just updated my device to the latest android version 5.1.1 as you did yourself. I am able to have every feature i used to in the previous android version including the "transform into". When you are taking note on top of the S note app there's a "bar" with features such as pencil, eraser etc. Have you tried to extend this bar. If so; you'll see there's the tranform into button along with some other features. Try it out, let me know what happend.

This cannot be. I just updated my device to the latest android version 5.1.1 as you did yourself.

Hi, the bar was already extended, and the only options i can recall are the basic ones, such as the pencil, eraser, the cloud thing (to select things with it), and that's about it. no transform into button, and also not where it was located before, after you select something with the lasso, the option is completely gone..
Would you please take a screenshot of the app and show the option?
I am 200% sure i've checked everything.
Unfortunately I already burned the Kitkat rom on my device so I can use these features again..
but if i am mistaken, and indeed missed it, I will update again.

Look at the screenshot and:
(1) Select the area you want to transform using the "cloud thing" you mention above; which's happens to be the lasso.
(2)You should be able to see a new bar like the one in the screenshot.
(3)Now, choose the second option (quadrangle thing) and it will ask you what tranform you want to operate, for instance math formula, text, shape, shape + text etc.
Hope I helped ya at all!!! :laugh::fingers-crossed:
Hi, I have just the same problem - after the update, all these 'transform into' features are gone. I am very upset, because this features were very useful to me too.

I really don't know what to do in order to aid you. Did you check out the screenshot. Is it different compared to your S note enviroment? Have you tried contacting samsung about the issue? If not, then give it a shot.

Just sent them a letter.
Annoying website.
Limits you to about 150 letters, and doesn't allow you to attach any text files.
Sent them a screenshot with my complaint.
Hoping to get a serious reply and not a "try a factory reset"/"address your local support" kind of response.

Sorry,
It doesn't work that way. Take a look at this.
The displayed menu simply doesn't have the "Transform into" option. It only displays : Properties, Cut, Copy and delete. Nothing more.
Any ideas on the net?
Thanks.

Solution found
For anyone still interested I found a solution.
It seems that for some strange reason and for some lucky owners like me the Andorid 5.1.1 update can render the S Note not fully operational (transform into missing). So I used the Smart Tutor app from Samsung and the tech guy told me thar after checking everything he found that the only way to correct the issue was to return the tablet to its factory settings (i.e: reset the tablet) .
So there it is. You have to restore the tablet to its original 5.1.1 state. Before starting BE CAREFUL , you have to backup your data (via google account, via samsung account and even better via the samsung's Smart switch app that's you call). Otherwise the reset will wipe out/delete all personal data.
So after doing you backup watch this video to perform the reset: youtube.com/watch?v=NDp_9mfBS98. There are similar videos on youtube so again your call. The process is quick.
Once you reset the tablet and restore your data you will have to do some adjusments but you will not lose data (if previously backed up).
Everything went as suppossed and now I have the S Note app fully operational.
