Thanks.....

k bro, 1 Question...

Sony says latest update for this phone is 11.2.A.31

But phone shows 11.2.A.21.... why ???
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] zzztidurvirus:
That depends on region. Quick way is to use .ftf or you can mod build string in build.prop or use pc companion - repair.

I'm about to pick up a replacement phone and I noticed that the RegawMOD root method no longer works.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1690919

What's the best root alternative? If there isn't one, I'll just keep the my current rooted phone. The only thing wrong with it is the accelerometer no longer works. I can live with that if it means that I won't be able to easily root the new phone.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] xperiacle:
Hello Note 8 users,

As a favor to a friend of mine, I made a MODE switcher app that allows the user to switch between the default PHABLET interface and the alternative TABLET interface. This app also allows the user to switch between an alternative Multiwindow mode as shown on the pictures below.

Requires: a rooted note 8 tablet with busybox installed (works for both odex and deodex).

1. For safety, make a backup.

2. Ensure you have busybox installed. If not, install busybox installer from the Play Store and use it to install busybox.

3. Install an alternative launcher like Apex, Nova, ADW, etc. just in case TW Launcher crashes when switching from one mode to another.

4. Download the app below and install. Launch and enjoy. Make sure you grant it root permission when asked.

DOWNLOAD

5. A THANKS would be nice or you could buy me a COFFEE. :)

NOTE: For those having issue with Play Store in tablet mode, the solution is to use the multi-dpi Play Store from the following THREAD.

CAUTION: Use this app at your own risk. I am not liable for any damage or loss due to use of this app.

2nd day that i am testing note8 and very happy to see you here xperiacle...your work is getting better and better...keep on rolling

But i have to wait yet to root this as i ordered 3g version but got wifi only...so waiting for exchange the devices.

Great device is note8 indeed, with this even better

Thank you so much - tablet mode great to switch to when using BT keyboard and mouse!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] Miller Time:
Thanks a lot for the app.

I am a rookie here and have a issue with this app.

My device is rooted and installed BusyBox pro for the first time.

Then, installed this app.

The mode switch works great, but Multiwindow Mode doesnt work.

it says "ERROR: Missing permission file."

Could someone tell me what I have done incorrectly?

Thanks in advance.

---Modified---

I rooted mine with "Framaroot"

(app, build.prop and play store compatibility question deleted - but I don't think it's relevant any longer. Restored build.prop, reinstalled this app, now have no issues with play store visibility. However, it is useful to remember that play store can be impacted by build.prop issues - if you do see a visibility issue, a restore can be helpful.)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] xperiacle:
[MENTION=1270297]chipwizz[/MENTION] & [MENTION=1446621]ianbbaa[/MENTION] - glad to see you roaming around this thread. Did you guys bought a note 8 and leave me behind in the note 1 forum? I'll be with the note 1 for a longer time I suppose as I can't afford any new device at the moment.

Make sure you have "com.sec.feature.multiwindow.phone.xml" in /system/etc/permissions folder. That is the missing permission file.

Yes, it changes one build.prop entry (ro.sf.lcd_density=177) to achieve tablet interface. Play Store may be an issue for some but the solution is to use the multi-dpi Play Store which you can download from HERE.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] roustabout:
What was surprising to me was that after I reverted back to 'phablet mode' I was seeing GPS not loving me.

But this morning I reinstalled after redoing the build.prop and for now, at least, Play is working fine.

Thanks for the link to the play store that ought to hold up if I go back.

Samsung's done some weird stuff with their hardware buttons -- both Button Savior and the back button on the tablet style interface tend not to work very well or often when you try to "back" with them. I'd hoped to be able to disable those hardware buttons by being in tablet mode, but not yet.

I grabbed the key test app a bit back and the hardware and the soft keys do send the same codes, so Samsung must have written something in that grabs inputs on those lines and prioritizes it.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] kaipro:
It 's reboot when calling or receiving call.

How to solve this?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] chipwizz:
Don't worry brother. I still remember the days I was saving for note1, will not be moving so early.:)

Real action started after you and ianbbaa displayed some magic of tablet and multi window. It is interesting stuff you created in terms of switching mode. So happened to checkout in the interest of note1 replication.

Sorry forum users to be off topic.

So sorry, coffe will leave soon to you as i saw your sig just today via browser...hopefully there will be more from other users as you really deserves it...

Rooted with busy box, framaroot I , model 5110, I also have multi window manager already on here could that be the problem. when I go into the app and hit multi window mode it states need to reboot so I do than after it reboots nothing it is back to the normal mode. I am trying to get the cascading window mode. Any help would be appreciated.

Try using your S-Pen instead of a finger. Not sure why that would matter, but when I press the back button on the bottom tablet statusbar, it shows that it got hit, but nothing happens. If I tap it with the S-Pen, it will actually work. Not sure why, but hopefully this points someone in the right direction to fix it?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] ammarr:
If you press to the left of the back button it does work regularly. But its pretty annoying to always have to hit the left half of that button so I switched back to phablet mode.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] xperiacle:
The Note 8 Mode Switcher app was intended for JB 4.1.2. I am not yet sure what changes are made on the leaked JB 4.2.2 that causes the app not to work so if anyone care to share a copy of the following files from the 4.2.2 rom then I will look into it and see what makes the app break on the 4.2.2 version. Please share the following files - {SystemUI.apk, framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk & FlashBarService.apk} . Thanks.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] xperiacle:
So I had a peek at the files of the leaked JB 4.2.2 and if the leaked firmware represents what the official firmware will be then I must say Samsung has definitely decided to disable the Floating Windows feature and the tablet UI interface by removing resources and modifying codes that make them work. If I were a Note 8 user, I would not want to update to newer firmwares without compelling new features because the current firmware is great enough. It just lacks great devs to unleash its full potential. Sorry Guys, the Note 8 Mode Switcher app will not work on JB 4.2.2 unless samsung decides to include the mentioned features on the official release.

5 LAYOUT MULTI WINDOW MOD...please test & report

most of u guys probably dont know who i am but i've successfully ported the multi window mod over to both the Tab Plus as well as the 7.7 and i have just created a new version which uses the 5 layout multi window which seems to be the best version for tablets...i know u may be wondering what this has to do with u guys well it just so happens that i used pure note 8 files in our mod so the systemui (which is a modded version of [MENTION=4948919]xperiacle[/MENTION] N7000 version ironically) SHOULD also work for u guys..i will attach it here and whatever brave soul is willing to test will need to push/copy it to system/app and change permissions. Please be aware...u MUST be in tablet mode BEFORE you use this particular mod and also will need to delete your phone.xml as well as the flashbar.apk. I'm not sure whats the best way of achieving tab ui for u guys but i'm using xposed framework (see post #4 in my original thread for more info) along with the tab ui module...someone please test & report back so a proper thread can be created. Of course u know with any improvements comes new issues....however i have not run into any serious deal breakers so far but your usage may vary.

DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR DEVICE...PLEASE BE SURE TO BACKUP BEFORE U BEGIN!

B]links removed...see post below[/B]

^5LAYOUT FLASHABLE (been having zip issues so this may not work which means u need to manually place the files in there proper places and set permissions...u will also still need to manually delete the phone.xml & flashbarservice.apk)

^MY ORIGINAL THREAD IN TAB PLUS FORUMS (more details & screenshots)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] chzyken:
Tested it out. There is no up arrow on the systems navigation bar to open the 5 window multiwindow manager.

The systems navigation bar is changed however, as the softkeys are rearranged and the notifications panel is slightly different.

However, I'm testing this on the N5110 and I didnt delete phone.xml because I am not sure where the file is located? Also, I acheived tabletUI using the Note 8 modeswitcher app instead of the Xposed Module.

Am I installing something incorrectly? Is it incompatible with the 5110.?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] THEDEVIOUS1:
EDIT: Actually i just checked the stock N5100 rom and apparently u guys don't even have the "com.sec.feature.minimode_tray.xml" file so i'm almost certain this is the one u need to add so i'll attach it here...forget about the rest of this post for right now and focus on the file below then go back and try xposed if it doesnt work after but i'm 99% sure this is the missing component

It shouldn't make much of a difference between the wifi only and 3g version since i made both of our versions(P6200/P6210) using the same file also (maybe missing a data icon)...so with that said it SHOULD work. I know u probably don't want to make a lot of changes to your setup but i would appreciate the feedback if u would be willing to try the xposed method to see if maybe it makes a difference so i can properly document the process needed...other than that the exact name is "com.sec.feature.multiwindow.phone.xml" which is located in the system/etc/permissions folder (same file that this thread is focused on). Next are all of your minimode files in place...they are minimode-res.apk (located in system/app) "com.sec.android.app.minimode.xml", "com.sec.feature.minimode.xml" and most importantly "com.sec.feature.minimode_tray.xml" which are located in the system/app/permissions folder also.

View attachment N5100MultiWindow5Layout2.zip

^TRY THIS (once again the zip may not flash correctly but u can manually place the "com.sec.feature.minimode_tray.xml" in the system/etc/permissions folder and delete the "com.sec.feature.multiwindow.phone.xml" while you're in there then remove flashbarservice.apk from "system/app"...also don't forget to set proper permissions)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] chzyken:
Followed your new instructions, the new multiwindow functions now.

It works using the note mode switcher app.

As far as I can tell, it can work in conjuction with the default flashbar.apk multiwindow bar.

You can set the arrangement with your 5mode switcher but also drag apps in using the default switcher.

The 5mode switcher only displays the stock apps, but the default switcher will display any extra apps enabled with the multiwindow manager.

The button next to the edit button will cause a systemui crash.

You should definitely open a separate thread. Let me know if there are any other info about my setup you would like to know.

Thx

Edit

Actually, the default flashbar launcher causes weird conflicts with the middle draggable bar, so I removed it after all. Nondefault apps enabled using the multiwindow manager can still be minimized using the minimize buttons, but won't show up in the 5mode tray.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] superman.namrepus:
I can confirm this. I got the same results. :good:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] THEDEVIOUS1:
i see u figured out why i said delete the flashbar...lol. I'm not sure if the manager module needs to be updated or there is something broken within the system ui file itself but if u install "samsung multi window manager" from the play store then u will be able to enable all of your apps in this mode also...i'm sure u guys will probably notice an icon or 2 out of place or something mislabeled but to me thats a small price to pay for the added functionality and will be fixed as soon as phablet mode gets straightened out. I'm sure there will be reports of some other issues since this is a new mod but other than something major coming up i plan on starting a new thread before the day is over...of course u know i don't actually own a note 8 so i'm depending upon u guys for feedback

Actually there is one thing i need to know now...did the zip i posted work without needing to manually move files or set perms?

[MENTION=2176838]THEDEVIOUS1[/MENTION] - I think it is great that you are helping out various devices achieve FLOATING MULTIWINDOWS but ever since this mod was started in the galaxy note forum, I have followed it closely and have been using it in all my galaxy phones and tablets and I know full well where the mods came or originated from {Floating Multiwindows, 5-Layout Multiwindows, Minimize button, Multiple Instance for apps, tablet mode/phablet mode with floating windows as well as enabling multiwindow apps, even the Samsung Multiwindow Manager app in the play store is possible because of xperiacle's work in the Note 10.1 forum and a lot more}. I have used most of xperiacle's mods and apps in my devices and I know how well they work. And it saddens me that somebody comes distributing this mods and apps in various galaxy devices forums without even giving CREDIT to the guy who made it happen in the first place, who showed us what is possible in our phones/tablets. Even his updater-scripts were copied. I am not a dev but I have been modding once in a while and the mods you are distributing have his signature all over them and you wonder why pressing that little icon on the traybar causes systemui FC (that icon is used for Expanded Desktop mode) and you obviously used a diff tool and just copied and pasted his codes (even the images/icons are the same).

[MENTION=2176838]THEDEVIOUS1[/MENTION] - NO OFFENSE, Man but I must say it is xda code of conduct to give CREDIT to where credit is due.
