Absolutely, I figured that. I am just working with different dpi settings now on different apps to get it where I need it. It's getting to where I need it now.

When I read the OP for the first time, I was worried I would have issues getting this beast to come alive the way it was ment to but man, it just booted right up into an outstanding rom build.

'Thanks' isn't enough for your hard work... I really liked that ROM

Almost everything is Perfect :) :)

[MENTION=4758472]jazzespresso[/MENTION], In accessibility settings, interaction control can be enabled but it doesn't work... it says I should press (Home + Volume Down) but nothing happens
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
I don't know what it supposed to do, never used that...it may even broken in orginal Gnabo's ROM since our this is also based on that.

can you explain what it should do?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] AhmadLight:
It's useful when you want to disable the ability to touch the screen in certain areas (or for the whole screen) :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
yeah it does not do anything...it does not gives error or anything, so it is hard to debug since no catlog cane be produced. I will ping [MENTION=4823947]Mikyno[/MENTION] and see if he can replicate this his side...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] usn.mustanger:
Absolutely fantastic ROM! It has really brought my Note 8 back to life! Rock solid, great features, and snappy! Great work, and THANK YOU!

A few questions, though:

1) Why are there two different My Magazine apps? I didn't install anything other than the base ROM. I assume I can safely delete the one with the lower version number, correct?

2) Is there any way to change the pen size on the pop-up handwriting text entry window? (This is the little window that poos up when you hover your S-pen over a text field and tap the little pen button that appears.) Currently, the pen size is very large, making using this feature a bit awkward.

3) What is this widget? It's on the second home screen of the default (out-of-the-box) setup. It's been blank (says "Loading...") since I installed the ROM.

Again, excellent ROM!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
Answers:

1)Yeah that's confusing, since both has same name and even same app icon; one of them is Headlines (from S5) and other's MyMagazine (from Note3/Note 4) - so don't delete them unless you really really hate it.

2)I am not sure how to increase that, I will check into, but no promise.

3)That' Samsung Apps Widget. It starts having issue after Samsung Apps updates itself and call it "Galaxy Apps", thus breaks the samsung apps widget. Just remove it from your screen. I will look for another one that works. Or if you prefer, you can go system\app, search "Samsung*app*widget", delete it.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] AhmadLight:
Before using this ROM, I had Civato's Rom installed and it had ViperFX & Boeffla Sound Control installed which increases the maximum audio you can get...

Now I see that sound is very low :(

I tried to install ViperFX manually but I got into bootloop, didnt try Boeffla yet :confused:

Also, I see that you've included MusicFX option in "Sound Settings" but I don't find the app itself to configure audio..
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
MusicFX is not configurable app, it does not have an interface (google stuff).

Sound Alive, yes you can configure it.

we know the sound is relatively weak, and not loud, that's because orginal Gnabo ROM is for Note 10.1, which has front speaker, but this tablet does not, so it needs some modification, which I am currently working to figure out what would be the best settings.:confused:

Even if ViperFX & Boeffla Sound Control installed, you may not able to increase the sound.

Search ViperFX and Boeffla in XDA, I believe it needs some spesical install instruction, etc....just installing may not work...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] CCallahan:
*Edit... Nm. It is working.

Has anyone been successful getting screen mirroring to work? It says "connected" but does not show anything on the screen for me. Just trying to find out if it is my device or a limitation of the rom.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
I believe it only works if you are using

stock ROM

and

stock kernel

. There's some developers (in different threads, do search in XDA) made it work with custom kernel, but honestly I have not tried since I don't use screen mirroring nor reading mode.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] CCallahan:
It works. Just had to tweak some things.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
tell us what you did, so i can post it under OP post for others to reference it back :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] LeandritoG:
Hi developer,

I have three questions.

1. These launchers work in Portrait and Landscape mode?

2. The language of them follow the system language or are they in English only?

3. If I want to return to the native launcher of Gnabo rom, what do I do? Do I have to install the rom again?

PS: My tablet is the GT-N8000

Thank you.

could we port some apps or feature from tab s to our note as tab s once had 4.4.2 :confused:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
possible...so watch out for v3.1 SE next couple weeks.....keep in mind not all Tab S apps (4.4.2) can be ported over to this ROM....
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] LeandritoG:
Hi jazzespresso,

I installed "TouchWiz Magazine UX Launcher (SE version)"

But the navbar turned black and lost his transparency... So I came back to my native launcher...

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
it should

not

. Go to settings --> app manager --> all---> touchwiz home - clear data and cache...while you there, clear data and cache for Magazine Widget too, reboot it right away.

also if you using xposed apps such as that changes status bar color or navigation bar color, disable it. it may not play nice Magazine UX launcher.

keep in mind, you should not have navbar turned black....I have been running it for weeks, no issue so far...

note 10.1 2012

could we flash this amazing rom in note 10.1 2012 since it has gnabo rom :D

i have lost Transparent Navigation Bar how to bring it back
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] LeandritoG:
Maybe you discovered the problem...

I use the xposed module called Flat Style Colored Bars...

I will try to install the launcher again...

But I have one more question:

About the 3 apks inside the folder "priv-app": "MagazineBriefingWidget", "MagazineHome" and "MagazineWidget"...

Do I have to install them like I installed the archive "TabS-SM-T700_MagazineUX_Launcher"?

I installed it using the command "644"... Do I have to install the other 3 apks in the same way?

Or can I install it just clicking in each one of the apks and clicking in install application like I do with apk outside the Play Store?

Thank you!

---------- Post added at 07:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 PM ----------

Well, I don't know what I'm doing wrong...

First I tried to install the 3 others apks by clicking in them, but it was impossible...

So I tried to do with the 3 apks the same way that I did with the launcher apk, I copy them to "priv-app" and seted 644 permission for each one of them...

But the only thing that I saw in launcher is 6 blue light blocks...

---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:37 PM ----------

I also tried to clean data end cache of the 4 apks...

InícioTouchWiz (sucess)

Magazine Widget (impossible clean data and cache, disabled options)

Minha Revista (My Magazine) (impossible clean data and cache, disabled options)

Resumo rápido (Magazine Briefing Widget) (impossible clean data and cache, disabled options)

So I reboot in recovery and I did wipe cache and dalvik...

But the 6 blocks without nothing persists in homescreen...

---------- Post added at 07:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 PM ----------

Oh...

Forget everything.... I discovered now that by clicking in the blue light blocks we can select some item like "musics" or "business" etc.

My doubt now is.... It was necessary copy the 3 others apks "MagazineBriefingWidget", "MagazineHome" and "MagazineWidget" to the "priv-app" folder and gave them 644 permission to each one?

Anyway... I did this...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
man!, this is not so difficult, you are making things way too complicated. First, Flat Style Colored Bars does NOT play nice on Samsung TouchWiz ROMs, so don't use it.

Second, when you install ROM first time, it comes Magazine UX launcher as defualt, so all should be working the way it supposed to.

Third, now if you somehow remove Magazine UX Launcher (this priv-app\MagazineHome.apk) and put back Stock SecLauncher.apk, then if you want to go back to MagazineHome.apk launcher, remove stock SecLauncher.apk and then put back MagazineHome.apk, and give permission 644. Now "MagazineBriefingWidget" and "MagazineWidget" are part of Magazine UX launcher, so make sure they are still there, if not, put them back, and give both 644 permisions., once you done these steps, reboot your tablet...once tablet reboots, go Settings --> Application Managers --> All, and locate TouchWiz Home, MagazineBriefingWidget, and MagazineWidget, and clear their data and caches, and reboot your tablet once more time.....once it reboots, all should be working....

clear like mud?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] CCallahan:
Sorry for the delay. To get screen mirroring to work I didn't change anything on the tablet. Just had to get all right on the hardware side. Synced up through a Roku 3 and it worked fine. Sometimes it is temperamental and doesn't want to connect but that is not a rom thing but a Samsung thing. Just have to keep trying until it connects.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] LeandritoG:
And now I installed right.

Deleted the native launcher.

Moved to the priv-app folder the 4 apks inside the folder downloaded of the launcher that I wanted.

Clean data and cache of the new TouchWiz Launcher installed...

I Also removed the Flat Style Colored Bars before installed everyrhing to see if the navbar stays transparent... But no success.

The navbar continues black...

And I see that something in launcher is wrong (relationed as the size)... After I upload some images...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] LeandritoG:
Hi guys,

I do not expect you to solve it but you can analyze the images...

But in addition to the black navigation bar, there seems to be a problem related to the size of the launcher, specifically in the bottom. :good:

I see what's going on, you have soft-nav bar visible, which should be not...intesting...I will check it out and let you know.

Flash this thru recovery : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347780194

reboot your tablet, once it reboots, please check. This should remove soft nav bar.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] LeandritoG:
I know Gravitibox is not really recommended for roms TouchWiz based...

But it was the way... I used the module to decrease the size of the navigation bar...

Notice the difference... Now it is better...

But I have one issue in Magazine Launcher... I can't add the S Plannet Widget (have 3 widgets of this, but no one works)... Nothing happens when I try to add them... And I also can't add the Gallery widget (shows the message: Gallery stopped).

-

One more information...

The module Flat Style Colored bars can change the colors of the navbar of this launcher... But can't give transparency to the navbar... I think it is curious...

-

And about this instructions:

Flash this thru recovery : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347780194

reboot your tablet, once it reboots, please check. This should remove soft nav bar.

I'm afraid to do that. I'm not sure it will work. Would not know reverse the process on error . And I would not want to install the rom again...

I prefer to wait for a new tester for GT-N8000... :)

Thank you...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
This ROM is for GT-N5110 (Note 8, not for Note 10.1), our tablet Note 8 does not have soft keys, thus has hard keys, thus having soft nav bar (as shown on your screen) is unnecessary, and takes screen space.

understood why we removed that....

Keep in mind, playing around diffrent xposed modes and apps may screw up your tablet if you don't know what you are doing...so be warned...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] LeandritoG:
Yes, my model has soft keys...

But I tried to install one of your launchers cause after I asked this:

This rom could have Flipboard Briefing on home screen... =) (about GT-N8000)

You said this to me on "[ROM][N8000][N8013][N8010][4.4.2] Gnabo Rom V8 [AIR COMMAND - NOTE 2014 APPS ]" topic...

not just that, you can even have my port full blown Tab S Magazine UX launcher, and bunch of other goodies if you check my Gnabo Port for Note 8 over Note 8 community thread!

And after you said:

yes. if you want to use that, you need to delete current seclauncher app......check out detail in my ROM thread here: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-8-0/development/rom-gnabo-rom-port-note-8-gt-n5110-t3153960

So I came here...

But ok, I tried... Thanks anyway! =)

Does anyone know how to successfully update Samsung account service? Has been asking me to update ever since installing the rom but always fails.

Also, followed directions but still cannot get lockscreen wallpaper to stick.

Thx
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
I am not sure why you can't update Samsung account, never had this issue during my testing. What I should recommend? well, try to clear data and caches for samsung app (galaxy app), or also uninstall update...go back remove your samsung account from account, and then reboot into recovery, do clear caches and then advance -- clear dalvik, let your tablet reboot..once it comes back, add your samsung account thru settings -- account.

open samsung app, it should let you login....

Now, wallpaper thingy; while you are on touchwiz launcher home screen, press on empty space, select wallpaper, from wallpaper pop up, select Lock screen, then it should bring up secwallpaper app, look at top, pull down and select Lock Screen again (it default reverts it back home), and pick wallpaper, and click Set as wallpaper.....done....

lock your screen and unlock, it should display new wallpaper that you just picked...

"Toolbox menu in settings will not be implemented as in this secsettings it's really buggy (unfixable). Use S5 toolbox addon app provided in the ROM to choose which apps you want in toolbox (more than the stock 5 apps). Don't add more than 10 apps because you will get bootloop! In addition,

when toolbox is on, install button of .apk files won't work

[MENTION=3081342]CCallahan[/MENTION]

there's going to be v3.1, that's not going to have a lot of new stuff, but mostly performance improvement related to changes that I am working on it.

I got Tab S's Magazine UX launcher and UI in this ROM, but now I am thinking it may be too heavy for this tablet to handle. Also installing more apps on your tablet decreases the performance as well.

but what we can do? this is almost over 3 year old device!, and still this ROM is as good as it gets.

Hello jazzespresso,

Thanks for this new update. It's wonderful!

However I don't know if I'm having the same problem as I did when I was on the jazz rom.

Email isn't working again. Tells me that sync is off.

I found my original post that solved the problem with email before (Quoted below).

I was wondering if I used the same files from that post, that it would fix it.

if it does, would you be able to make a flash able zip if possible?

No rush. Just thought I'd ask.

Thanks!

[quote name="ordio" post=58865457]Hi jazzespresso,

If you need someone to test this, I certainly can for you.

OK so I missed restoring the exchange apk (overwritten by my daily titanium backup). Just needed to know the other files. Thank you.

I'll nandroid backup then restore, backup the exchange apk and restore again and let you know.

Thanks.

find SecEmail_Tablet.apk and SecExchange.apk in system\app folder (use root explorer to get there), delete them and reboot your tablet, and then download this one (see link below) and extract it and copy both apk files to system\app and give both apk file permission 644, and reboot your device.

once reboot it, don't open email app yet, go Settings --> Application Manager --> All --> and find Samsung email apk, and clear data and caches, and do the same thing for exchange...and now go head open your email app and set up your account..

Well, I'm able to set up the settings for logging onto my exchange server (i have to do manual setup though). As soon as i finish the set up, i'm told that "Sync is off".. and nothing happens.

I exit Email, and go back in.. and find all my settings gone.

Odd, just now i tried it again, and after completing the settings, instead of going to the screen where it asks for the name of the email, it went back to the "set up account" screen.

Any clues...

I can't seem to export any of my logs when using any of the logcat apps ... got any alternative app suggestions so i can try and export the logs?
