Hey,there´s a way to view apps in multiwindow mode? I loved XMultiWindow and this module is way better than that,can you make a multiwindow mode? I mean,to detect the size of the screen and cut two apps in the screen?
[Xposed Framework Modules] agrenwa:
I'm loving this mod, thanks so much, I'd like to suggest having a different way to launch the floating button, I find myself many times accidentally pressing the floating button, a solution can be by having a shortcut to launch the floating button and accessing that shortcut via a pie launcher (LMT) or via any gesture launcher, like this the screen can be free and clean and still you can launch the floating window button whenever needed.
[Xposed Framework Modules] g4_e:
+1 please make a shortcut we can use for LMT like he said devs
[Xposed Framework Modules] refgd:
I can't do anything for other Launcher. you can ask the developer who develop the launcher to add Category "FLAG_FLOATING_WINDOW", when they launch a app. Just like what I said:

For Third Launcher

Intent.addCategory("FLAG_FLOATING_WINDOW");

startActivity(Intent);
[Xposed Framework Modules] g4_e:
I meant it more like if you could make a shortcut that when opened opens the app selection for floating window apps. That way it would appear as something you could assign as a key in LMT on the screenshot below. So when you triggered that in LMT it would open the selection. It would be like an alternative to the floating button. Just add it as a shortcut or app you could select. Thanks:good:

home screen problem on miui

Great multi window module, the only module that work but doesn't make my phone bootloop, but there's problem at home screen, it keep show one app in floating mode, when i open another one, the early app goes hidden, i use MIUI 7 on redmi note 2, thanks.
[Xposed Framework Modules] armaninyowph:
Great module, dev! But I have a suggestion. Please let us add some system apps so I can add the Package Installer app. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] blubbiflubb:
Would be great to add an option to change the color of the floating button, or even change the button itself. ?

Kindly Regards. :D
[Xposed Framework Modules] alahkel:
I guess that the two killer features now would be:

1) single per-app floating icon for minimized apps (like on samsung touchwiz's multiwindows system): you have a floating app running, tap on the minimize button/menu and that single app minimizes into a new floating icon. If you touch the floating icon that single app that was previously minimized comes up again as floating window (preferibly in the app state frozen when it was minimized at first, but dk if it would be possible to do).

2) customization of the floating app panel (when you tap on the floating skyolin button)

But just like this the module is great, really

Floating button

First I must say I love this module. I've been longing for multi window functionality for a long time and I was never satisfied with the limited Samsung version.

I'm on a CM rooted S5 and it works perfectly!

I know others have requested something similar, so I just want to point out what would work even better for me:

How about a long-press option for the floating button, where you can choose to temporarily close it and move it to the notification area? The button hovers over open windows, either floating or fullscreen, and is somewhat in the way. Is this at all possible? Then, by tapping a notification, the button will be brought back to the home screen.

Error with Skyolin Helper

I am having an yu yuphoria (Android Version: 5.1.1 )

I have installed this module ..... all works fine

But all the features of the application disappear when clearing all the recent applications

That is all the applications added to the skyolin helper does not open in floating mode.

And I have to open again skyolin helper app to get the other apps open in floating mode.

Is there any fix for this problem...........

By the way I love this module but help me with this issue.

Thanks in advance.....
[Xposed Framework Modules] IceBreakr:
The multi window functionality is perfectly implemented.

But i faced a bug:

The floating button vanishes and app FC when it is cleared from recents(mokee 6.0.1)

Request:

Is it possible to add an option place a homescreen shortcut to launch an app in multiwindow mode?

Then this module can be used with tasker,pie etc.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DThrawn:
Hi, really good work, thanks a lot.

Just a suggest, if is it possible to make a heads up who ask for use this mod when we install a new app, or a option to launch automatically the new app with this (we can maximize after also it's not a problem). Because return in xposed options for every app's downloaded, for look for your mod and search in all my app. It's not a problem but just many times i wait for a lost time for make that.

[Xposed Framework Modules] wilsonhlacerda:
This module is the best floating / halo one for Android, at least till MM 6.0.1, but unfortunately is abandoned. Developer does not reply here anymore for a year. The website is down. He / she has another app on Play Store that last updat was 10 months ago.

Well, but one feature I miss a lot: to trigger the opening of the floating apps drawer by third party app, or by a shortcut / widget. I mean, I miss an alternative way to open the drawer that is not the default floating button. Unfortunately there is no activity for that.

Have anyone managed to do that? Reversed engineering the apk and found a way to trigger the drawer opening code that is used by the floating button?

An way to trigger the opening of ONE app in floating mode is documented on OP's first post. And also in the middle of the thread by another member of how to do it by script (Tasker). But would be useful to find a way to open the drawer itself, with all the apps, and not only one app.

Thanks for any help.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] NotATreoFan:
So I just finished copying my ~40GB of music to the SD card, with plans to use Samsung's stock Music app for listening to local music. I got on the train this morning, and the app was missing! I disabled some things in Package Disabler Pro over the past week with the phone, but never Music or anything else similar. It doesn't show at all on the phone now.

Also, while trying to test Root Explorer's issue with writing to our SD card, I found it to be missing from my app drawer (Nova), but showing up if I search for it. I haven't hidden the app at all, and even more, it doesn't show under TouchWiz or Google Now Launcher either.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jouda5:
Hello,

I am looking for solution on how to connect Shield Tablet to devices with VGA/DVI input.

So far I have tried using HDMI to VGA convertor (works on my PC) with cheap miniHDMI to HDMI cable from china, so basicly:

[Tablet -> miniHDMI to HDMI -> HDMI to VGA convertor -> simple VGA cable -> 1680x1050 VGA monitor / fullHD VGA/DVI monitor ] ... No succes.

Second attempt was with same miniHDMI to HDMI cable, but connected to HDMI to DVI-D cable to the same fullHD VGA/DVI monitor:

[Tablet -> miniHDMI to HDMI -> HDMI to DVI-D cable -> fullHD VGA/DVI monitor ] ... Still no succes.

I think that problem may be in that cheap miniHDMI to HDMI. It works fine with HDMI devices, but no luck with the other cables.

Any thoughts if I should buy some better miniHDMI to HDMI cable or those solutions I was trying are just not possible?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jouda5:
Update

UPDATE:

So I bough another miniHDMI to HDMI cable and it still does not work with HDMI to VGA convertor, but it works fine with my second solution, HDMI to DVI.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weedy2887:
VGA is an analog signal. Shield devices don't support the transcoding, you need an external box for that.

HDMI is DVI + sound (and now Ethernet) over the same cable. So converting the plug back to DVI should always work.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] MishaalRahman:
It's no secret that cellphone radios are among the biggest killers of your battery life. Among the worst offenders is the LTE radio, which is not as efficient as the 2G HSPA radio. Now, when you're connected to WiFi, no data is actually being transmitted however your phone still utilizes the LTE radio for connecting to your carrier's cell tower for calls/texts rather than the more efficient 2G HSPA radio. If you have poor LTE signal in your area, you can turn off the LTE radio while you're on WiFi to squeeze some extra battery life out of your phone.

Prerequisites

Root access

Secure Settings plugin to change preferred network mode

Instructions

Create a new Profile and name it Toggle 2G/4G.

Create a new State context, go to Net and choose Wifi Connected. Leave everything blank here.

You can leave the task name blank, as it is unlikely you'll be using this elsewhere.

Now, you'll create the entry task

Code --> Run Shell. These are the commands you'll need to run. Make sure you have "Use Root" checked!

setenforce permissive;
svc data disable;
setenforce enforcing

Plugin --> Secure Settings. Expand the "Actions" dropdown and pick "Device Setting." For the Setting Table, pick "global." For the Setting Name, find "preferred_network_mode1" (make sure it's exactly this one, there are similar ones that don't work). Change Setting Value to 1 if you're on a GSM phone, or to 0 for WCDMA.

Now, create the exit task by pressing on the Toggle 2G/4G profile then long-pressing on the entry task. Tasker will give you a few options here, but choose to "Add Exit Task."

Code --> Run Shell. These are the commands you'll need to run. Make sure you have "Use Root" checked!

setenforce permissive;
svc data enable;
setenforce enforcing

Plugin --> Secure Settings. Expand the "Actions" dropdown and pick "Device Setting." For the Setting Table, pick "global." For the Setting Name, find "preferred_network_mode1" (make sure it's exactly this one, there are similar ones that don't work). Change the Setting Value to 9 if on T-Mobile or 10 if you're on Sprint/Verizon.

Exit out, and you're done! Now whenever you connect to WiFi, the LTE radio will be disabled, and when you disconnect it'll be enabled again! You'll still be able to receive calls and texts while on WiFi, of course, because the 2G HSPA radio is still on.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] frrancuz.:
Its turn on/off mobile data.

Not switch 2g-4g/LTE.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] MishaalRahman:
Oops! Sorry, I left out one step in the entry/exit task. It uses Secure Settings to change the preferred network type. Thanks for pointing it out.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] frrancuz.:
Do you tested it?

SS -> run shell: settings put global preferred_network_mode XX

Its the same.

On my phone preffered network wont changed. Need reboot.

[Sorry for the mistakes.

I do not know English well.

I use Google translator.]
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] MishaalRahman:
Yes, I tested it. Make sure it's EXACTLY this: preferred_network_mode1. Note the 1 at the end. The other ones don't work!
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] frrancuz.:
I have not "preferred_network_mode1" on my global settings, only "preferred_network_mode". When I change network mode the number change - 1 for 2g, 11 for LTE.

So?

This guide is not for all?
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] enskje:
what should I use for setting value if I am not using sprint, tmobile or verizon?
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] frrancuz.:
1. Set manual 2g

Run shell: sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db "SELECT name, value FROM global;"

Store matvhes in 2g. txt

2. Set LTE/4g

Run shell

Store matches in 4g.txt

Check what do you have in "network-preffered"
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] enskje:
ok, thanks. now I can't find network_preffered1... only network_prefered.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] frrancuz.:
so, this method is not for you..

Do you have xposed? Gravity box? Intelli3g?

If not, instal this:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cygery.togglenetworktype

Tasker support.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] MishaalRahman:
Good idea on using SQLite. For anyone that can't get it working using his method, try downloading the Tasker SQLite Plugin.

[Tasker Tips & Tricks] gub:
Did you measure the battery consumption of 4G vs 3G vs 2G?

Disabling mobile data will clearly improve your battery life, however, unless you have poor 4G and good 2G and the phone insists on using 4G, I don't see how disabling 4G can be an improvement.

First of all, because 4G is faster, you will spend a shorter amount of time in high power transmit mode for a given number of bytes transferred. Additionally, newer standards typically improve power efficiency even in low power / standby modes.

If disabling 4G really improves battery life, maybe it is specific to your location. In this case, it may be better to set your script to trigger only on a specific WiFi network, or in a specific location.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] MishaalRahman:
