Just wanted to let you all know that there is an app in the Google Play Store which does help us GS3 user to have multiwindow.

Its not the same as Multi window but it does look a good starting ground while we wait for the Official update to come through from Sammy.

It does cost but only 0.99p here in the uk.

I have provided a link below and it is Fully Compatible with the International Galaxy SIII I9300

Multiscreen Multitasking

Screen Shots

Enjoy
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] chwads2k8:
I have the multitask multiscreen app and its no good so don't buy if u ask me
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Nick Fury:
Yeah your probably right mate. And of course its not as good as the real Multi-Window but I found it and thought I would post it just incase somebody wanted to try it.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] wajiman:
Today i saw an applicatio in play store can't remember its name but it said it was for multi window enabling on Android devices though i Did not see on which devices was it compatible.

Edit:

Here is the play store link of that application:

how did the gallery and camera from note 2 ported fast? can't they make the multitasking too? i'm really noob at these things, just asking xP
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] coolhof:
If you read the comments you now why its not ported.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Arsaw:
Because multiwindow feature is integrated into the framework. Porting this feature would mean porting the framework which would required a lot of coding skills to make it compatible with S3.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] megafabian03:

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] guest115:
I guess that it won't work on AOSP, because of the missing Touchwiz Framework. Same problem I have/had with SMemo of the JB Rom. I guess Multi View will be available on Stock Rom, if it will be available at all. :(

btw, there is a xml in framework-res, which you can edit to add more apps to the multi window.

Today the 1st Note2 rom with multiwindow feature has been released.

It contains a multiwindow.jar and multiwindow.odex inside the /system/framework/ folder, but it's not enough with just copying those files into our roms, I guess some more files would need to be modified so it can work in our jb rom.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] eybee1970:
ok, guys,

I diffed 2 different Note 2 ROMs (1 with multiwindow, 1 without), to point out the differences responsible for making multiwindow work.

This is what I could find out:

you need 'multiwindow.jar' inside /system/framework (inside attached 'multiwindow' package)

you need 3 additional xmls inside /system/etc/permissions (inside attached 'multiwindow' package)

and the most tricky part: you need to port smalis inside 'android.policy.jar' to make it working (original Note 2 android.policy.jar inside attached 'multiwindow' package)

--> there is one complete folder inside \com\android\internal\policy\impl\ called 'multiwindow' ==> you for sure have to add to your android.policy.jar

--> there are several code-changes to be made inside \com\android\internal\policy\impl\PhoneWindowManager.smali (at least to define backbutton working for starting multiwindow

--> maybe other changes in same folder to other smalis

I also attached the android.policy.jar from Note2-ROM without multiwindow --> it is for devs to diff and find out what to port in a more detailed way....

Unfortunately I am not good in porting smali-code, but for sure others are able to do that! :)

I guess, if this succeeds, there is a good chance to make it working on other Sammy-Devices, such as S3 or Note1....or the feature depends on more then just that - who knows ;)

So please all: spread this to devs....;)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Mr.Mefisto:
