[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dwitherell:
Hey all -

Just thought I'd take a sec to summarize suggestions that have been thrown out there along with my thoughts on them:

- You PMed me about this as well - sorry I haven't responded yet. I really am unsure how this is all implemented, so I currently am unaware what can be done. I'll have to poke around in SamsungIME to see if I can figure out what goes on there, but no promises on that one. That being said - if you discover anything please let me know :)

- I'm sure there will be some wallpaper sorts of things - [MENTION=2801895]AkaTheMacDaddy[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3054487]JaeKar99[/MENTION] drove those into existence last time, so I would expect something similar again. That being said, I can't speak for them on whether this will happen - but at bare minimum I can throw in a few I've found that I like anyway.

- As far as the air command stuff - what sorts of modifications were you thinking? I poked around some of the guts for that one and... well it was rather confusing anyway lol. That being said, I at least know where to look so that's a start anyway lol.

- Hmm... while I agree on the convenience aspect of it, I also agree with that TBO makes things pretty easy so my gut says to leave this to the end-users and TBO. Plus, I would hate to have included things that are no longer up-to-date with what TBO offers, and the risk of this scenario happening would be there if I pre-included things in the install.

- I actually spent some time already trying to mess with this, and even though I set things in csc and even smali-hacked the flags when that didn't work, it doesn't appear that the flip-data-on-to-send-mms-then-flip-it-back-off function is working. I don't mess with such things usually, so I may be missing something, but currently it doesn't look like I can make this work unfortunately.

- On it and done (at least half way so far) :)

- I talked about it a little before, but this is currently beyond my meager skillset. I'm in no way a real "dev" or anything, and the scope of implementing such a thing is regrettably beyond me as of right now... That being said, if anyone finds information on how such things could be implemented, I'd be happy to give it a shot :)

- I am unsure if I will include the data traffic bit this time around... I might (assuming it still works with little to no hassle on 4.3), just because it's a simple flip-it-off-if-you-don't-want-it sort of thing, but yeah I wasn't overly impressed by it.

- The clear-all-notifications-for-things-with-icon-notifications idea is interesting, but I don't even know where to start looking for such things. This would be more than the clear function, it would be a clear-and-mark-as-read sort of thing. I'm not sure I have the chops to pull off such a task unfortunately - mostly as I would have little to go on for a place to start... Just thinking out loud, it would need the list of apps with notification-on-icon stuff, and (more critically) some function to process things as read... that last part is what I would get hung up on I think. Nifty idea though :)

1- I can talk to Alexea on the spen floating icon change bit - things like icon changing seem more theme-relevant, so I would have to defer to her expertise on that one :)

2- Given your further explanation... that was a stock feature on the Note2, and one that does not seem to be implemented on the Note3 (not even buried and hidden in SecSettings as far as I can tell). As sshafranko said though, you can set a widget up so all you need to do is a single swipe and you'll be to the camera... better than nothing :)

3- See earlier comments on this... short answer is it's a bit beyond me I fear

4- I'm not sure what I will do on the kernel end, but to be fair adding in kernel options to the installer isn't a huge task. The limiting factors here will be overall file size of the installer, frequency of kernel updates (and I suppose stability is a factor there, but I doubt it will be for long), and most important of all the okay from the kernel wizards themselves to offer a version. This will likely be a close-to-done decision.

5- But of course :)

- I'll have to look into whether I can add an exit option to the stock browser. I know in earlier OS iterations there was a switch that could be flipped to offer the exit button... I'll have to look into whether that still exists :)

Thanks for all the great suggestions folks! Hopefully I didn't dishearten folks with the number of "too tricky for me" responses :) Keep the suggestions coming!
