[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Toys Samurai:
Is it even possible to launch S-View programmatically? If so, someone could just write an app by checking the magnetic sensor.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] MohammadAG:
There's a check done in SystemUI, so no.

This can be solved by case manufacturers, it seems that this isn't a move by Samsung to kill covers, but rather to make the covers more integrated, and this came as a side effect (whether they knew about that or not I don't know).

I'm guessing that on 4.3, they never checked the ID since there were only S-View covers, so reacting to the magnet was enough (as long as there was a chip on the back).

In 4.4, that may have changed to checking the ID to distinguish between normal covers that should just toggle the display, S-View, and S-View with charging. It defaults to no case though.

Case manufacturers can simply make a similar chip that feeds ID type 1. I'm no hardware engineer, and I barely understand chips and how they work (this may even be solved by simply writing to the chip on current cases, if that can be done).

I'd love it if someone who knows a thing or two about EE can comment on how much BS I said :)

Edit: One more thing, I'm guessing they didn't check the magnet alone because of the issues that happened on the S4 (people working close to magnetic fields had the S-View screen shown all the time they were in that magnetic field)
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
but can you make the app compatible to 4.3 and maybe put in a setting on whether we have s-view or normal flipcover???
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] glimpsofreality:
I tried the case without s view window that doesn't turn sview on.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] CVonV:
does anybody get this bug too?

If I open and close the cover such that the s-view window shows up, my stock music app (not the widget) opens a blank screen? I can only open it properly after a fresh boot without having the s-view window show up.

interestingly enough, if you boot with the cover closed, it won't boot in s-view.. and even if you wait for screen to turn off and the press power, it'll be the normal lockscreen.

edit: i've tried a clean reflash and the bug persists. if i disable the module in xposed i can open the music app with no problems

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] lukesky:
In 4.3, there were 2 types of cover already, the S View with the window, and another without window but it still wakes the phone up when you flip it open.

I too have the Spigen Slim Armor View, and it worked for one day, and all of a sudden it stopped being 'detected'.

I believe this has been incorporated into the dowloads for Xposed framework.

You install the xposed framework.apk and then enable xposed, go to downloads and find this or something similar there....

Good work here though.... :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] arcmanov:
I found it there as well, but I get a toast saying 'Downloaded file is not a valid APK (or incompatible)'

I guess I need to upgrade to KitKat for this particular mod to work.

It's not working for 4.3.

Something was changed in 4.3 to kill the functionality it seems.

This solution is for

Kitkat only. For 4.3 any case with chip should work.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] guyversudo:
4.3 NO the Spigen case does not work. Not on stock or rooted roms. They @ spigen are working to find a fix but Intel then you can send it back for a refund. If this could be modified to use on 4.3 we could test and see if this would fix the problem. There is a large number of people on 4.3 with this spigen case that are having this very same issue the first 5 to 10 minutes it works but then after it stops. I was able to get it to start again one other time simply by accident. never again. no reboots no pulling out the battery no taking the case off the phone. This patch for Kit Kat maybe the solution but I to and unable to install. I'm looking at the code. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks sudo
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] jjairoph:

I almost break my device trying my new spigen cover works! You made a great work fixing this terrible problem with samsung and its new policy about accesories.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] o0o.paw:
For those that have been having issues on 4.3 with the cases not working have you tried wiping the Davlik cache with Mobile Odin Pro ?

I was having intermittent issues with my non genuine case after installing / removing apps or making changes with Xposed. The only thing that would restore the S View functionality was a fresh install each time and it was driving me crazy. A simple wipe of the Davlik cache a reboot (and then a reboot again for some reason?) and everything works again like normal (you may also need to change the S View screen colour).

The only time I ever have to do it again is if I use Xposed or the Wanam module to make a change :eek:
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
since the dalvik is part of the normal cache it shoudl also ne able for the non rooted user to clear the cache using stock recov.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] magnum870:
I would really love to see this sort of a mod for the window-less cases, so the magnet sensor could be used without the chip. Well technically I wouldn't use it for the case, I would add a magnet to my belt holster so when I put it in the holster the screen would sleep and when I removed it the screen would wake. I had this sort of a feature way back when I had a Blackberry, and would love to see it come to Android devices. And maybe even if someone had the time to program and app/extension to allow it to change ring modes when the magnet is sensed (my old BB I had set to vibrate in holster, but ring out loud when not in holster, pretty cool in my opinion, kinda miss that function). I know it may be a fantasy filled dream but these things would be really cool to see.

Anyway, I'm glad there are people out there that are way smarter than I working on ways to make things work that get broken with software updates.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] CVonV:
i've done a bit more tinkering with regards to the music app bug

the bug: if you close the cover such that the s-view window displays (as in closing the cover while the screen is still on) and then open the cover again to unlock --> the samsung music app opens a blank screen

but you can open it normally again (without rebooting) if you turn off the screen first by pressing the power button then closing the cover and then opening again. unlocking the screen by the power/home button doesn't fix the issue.

magnet issue

ok,first of all,awesome job,all nice and good,but i have a problem,when i open the cover all way thru back,its activate the s view function,why ? can anyone knows?

ty alot
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
probably because your magnet seems to be a bit strong. when you flip it to the back the magente and the sensor for that magnet overlap once again and if you have bad luck s-view COULD activate...
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] effekt10:
any ideas to solve it? something to block the magnet?

http://www.technobuffalo.com/2014/01/27/samsung-galaxy-note-3-third-party-accessory-fix-coming-soon/

Following Samsung’s release of Android 4.4 KitKat for the Galaxy Note 3, owners of the smartphone noticed that the device no longer worked properly with third-party accessories. There was a bit of concern that Samsung was trying to force consumers onto its own devices, though that’s not the case at all. Samsung recently responded to a request for comment from TechnoBuffalo and shed some light on the situation.

“We have currently identified a software compatibility issue with the Galaxy Note 3 update to Android 4.4 (KitKat) and select 3rd party accessories,” a spokesperson told TechnoBuffalo. “A software update will be available shortly. We are committed to offering a diverse and reliable mobile experience for all customers, providing continued support and solutions for any issues that arise with product updates for both Samsung manufactured and third-party accessories.”

Samsung did not provide a timeline for the release, though the good news is that a fix is coming. So don’t throw out your third-party cases and docks just yet, hopefully a solution hits your phone soon.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] glimpsofreality:
Is because this app only activates cover via magnet, which in located just at the lower left corner on the touch screen. When you move the cover all the way back magnet comes close to the sensor again and sview activates. I hope it explains

Anyone else having this bug?

cheers for the confirmation mate

yep i can duplicate this bug. but you can circumvent the restart fix by doing the fix i posted about with the music app ie turn screen off with the power button then close and open the cover :)

i decided to test this.. it does work.. you have to hold on the speaker button until it goes green to enable it.. ie don't just touch it

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Silberpfeil3110:
So I upgraded now to KitKat and it was one of my biggest mistakes of the last time.

I bought the Spigen SView cover and I really love it and I thought with this Xposed Mod everything will go fine but it wasn't.

So at first I can't use the case properly like I did on 4.3, I just want to sum up the problems I uncovered.

-) sometimes scaling is wrong and the status bar is not on the right position, i.e. the clock is outside of the window,

-) the music app won't work proper with this mod, black screen as already stated some posts above,

-) the Air Command Window won't show up,

-) home button is not working anymore with the s view cover closed which is in my opinion the baddest thing.

Maybe we can do something, i.e. port the previous apk from sview. Maybe that could solve some of these probs...!?
