[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] lennie:
One of the things I've found within the first couple days of using this phone is that gestures are locked to Samsung's launcher, particularly the recent apps gesture. I do not want to use the Samsung launcher but is forced to because it has to keep running in the background in order to have this gesture (is a waste of resources to have 2 launchers running at the same time).

I read somewhere that Google will take this away from them in the next OS update.

About bixby, you will have to use an app blocker if you don't use it or don't want I running in the background. I use package disabler pro (bought from their website not from the app store), you can also use ccswe. But package disabler pro can disable all and every app, ccswe cannot do this in order for them to stay in the play store.

I've been a devoted Note user since the Note 2, upgrade pretty much day 1 on every release but I've found. I've noticed that Samsung has been slowly taking away some feature while locking others. They've lied about screen size/real-estate, battery, removing and locking the ability to track battery usage. I honestly feeling this will be my last Note device until Samsung start doing the right things again.

It's funny to see how different folks react to things in a different way. In my opinion, the Note 10+ is not only the best Note device Samsung produced to date, but the best device Samsung produced to date, period. I have had prior Note devices as well, either because I've owned them or had an opportunity to use them and the Note 10+ to me feels and functions as well as the Note 7 did for its time. We all know what happened to the 7 unfortunately and what followed the next two years was absolute crap. Samsung was conservative because they were scared. Note 10+ returned to what made the Note series great - huge screen, big battery life, beefy specs. I have the S10+ and the Note 10+ is a far better, and significantly better performing device. This despite the fact that they are built on the same basic platform. I am yet to find a flaw on it, but I see plenty on the S10+. Not sure if something is different about the 5G device or whether the software is just really that immature to lead to the dissatisfaction you are describing.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] mike2518:
Me exact thoughts! I've had almost every note made as well as the S10 e, S10 plus. The note 10 plus I have is way better than the S10 plus period.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] FCORivers:
I guess there's no discussion about how good Note10+ is over every other Note before it, is good to clear that out.

Now, here's the deal, I'm not a fan of any brand of any product, I'm almost picky about the food I buy and clothing, sure. I had a Galaxy S2, then S5. And then a Nexus 6, the best phone by far including every other phone after it, which I used for 2 years. Then a LG G6. Then an S9 (which I kinda loved/hated the same way I do this one) that I gave to my daughter and got me a OnePlus6T, the closest to rank next to Shamu.

So as you can read it's not like I hate the brand or anything like that, I hate how Samsung adds so much makeup to Android that it doesn't feel like Android. The Screen Gestures, as I mentioned before, is a Android 10 problem that I didn't seem to have on my 6T, but all that Bixby crap and the way the icons look and how their themes suck so bad, it's like a bunch of Korean 12 year olds put them together. It's just the way Samsung makes what should be a great experience as I had with the 6T on A10 feel like bloated and opaque.

My wife and daughter loves it thought so I guess I got that going for me. I'm getting money back for both my S9s which I'll use to pay for the phone and sell it as fast as I can.

For example, My Nexus 6 had most of the amenities or features that this phone has, obviously the camera technology and fingerprint scanning had advanced greatly, and no stylus but wireless charging, face unlock, you name it, it had it plus Google security patches monthly for 3 years and a still ongoing Dev community... I mean, it even use the same microsim.

So you see, it might be faster and everything but the Samsung skin is pretty awful in my opinion and I had just forgotten how much I hated the Bixby crap, I was very happy with the lack of a dedicated Bixby button thinking stuff might be better but is worst.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] dhorgas:
I hear you for sure. Unfortunately I also don't have much to add to the discussion. I currently don't have Android 10 and won't get access to it for another month or so probably. I expect a January release for Android 10 for the Note 10+ broadly. Maybe when one of the fellow members rocking the 5G version get theirs they might be able to help more. Sorry I couldn't help beyond providing some info earlier in the thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] FCORivers:
It's all good. No need to say that, you did offer an option which I appreciate.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] skinnytoo2:
Look in your accessibility settings. There is something enabled that is causing your issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] FCORivers:
Nah, there's nothing active there bc I don't use none of that plus is also not something brought in from migrating to this phone since I started fresh on this phone.

As I wrote before, I read it is tied to A10 not allowing gestures on 3rd party launchers but it worked fine on my OnePlus6T.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] lennie:
That's great [MENTION=4900975]dhorgas[/MENTION], not trying to knock what you've said or how you feel about your device in any way but I guess it's a subjective thing. I know what I paid for, I know what they told me about the device and I know what I got. You are clearly contented with what you got and that's OK.

The build quality on the N10 is exceptional, I don't think anyone can say otherwise but saying the N10 is significantly better performing than the S10 is nothing more than your bias showing in the face of all the comparison speed tests widely available. Significant? No. Exaggeration? Very much so. By the way just letting you know colors are better on the S10 screen than the Note 10 but that's neither here nor there. Performance is not a Samsung thing, it's Qualcomm. You shouldn't be giving Samsung credit for things they didn't do.

My few gripes with the phone might not be significant to you in any way. By themselves they're pretty small but together they're hard to overlook in in my day to day usage.

1) Screen size, they lied but didn't lie. Screen is correct 6.8" but actual screen real-estate is 6.5", almost the same as on my N9 which is 6.4" in immersive mode. There is no immersive mode on the N10. They artificially blocked it by having a semi-static banner there. Not a hardware problem, just a conscious decision made by Samsung as if they know how best I should use my phone. I was duped into thinking I would have a bigger screen to use.

2) The screen color are horrible, their choice of pixel color was a bad choice in my book. Now the screen has an even more reddish tint than even the N9.

3a) Battery size. They plain lied about this one. Some people might be fine with this, others might think they know all about how batteries work and will proceed to defend the company's actions.

I remember when they use to show mAh usage for all apps, they removed that. Now they have battery size mAh disclaimers? I'm getting the feeling it was a conscious decision to F us on the battery.

3b) battery tracking is petty much locked. when they removed mAh view they locked full tracking, why? Because they were getting ready to F us on the battery, that's why.

4) Gesture lock. What they did is lock the recent app gesture into their crappy launcher. You'd have to have it constantly running with full access to the device in the background in order to have full gesture while using a different launcher. Just like they use to lock gallery with a different app so if you should disable it then gallery wouldn't work.

With Android 10 we should at least have control of gestures which is a good thing for consumers like myself. But the road I see Samsung going down is a road I don't feel I should be investing my money, not like my money will be of any significance to them in any way shape or form but at least I want to feel comfortable when spending my money.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] pcriz:
The gesture issue isn't a Samsung move. The same issue exists in other Android 10 devices in regards to third party launchers.

https://ww.9to5google.com/2019/11/12/android-10-gestures-launchers/

The problem is with Google's code, not to say Samsung couldn't fix it and flow the changes back into the base but that could take longer to get approved than to just let Google fix it and flow it up.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] lennie:
No, no that's a separate issue. What I'm talking about is on Android 9 running on Note 10, not Android 10 beta. If you fully disable Samsung's One UI launcher then you will lose the recent app gesture. No error no warning. If I should use a different launcher then I would have to keep the Samsung launcher also running using up resources even though I'm not using it.

I usually go full immersive, no status bar, until I need it, no navigation bar. Full gesture. And now Samsung is artificially preventing people who wants to use their phones that from doing so.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] pcriz:
Android 9 made a change allowing the launcher to customize and control recents. The launcher controlling it needs to be a system app. It's why you can't have Nova controlling how recents looks.

Again this is a change brought on by Google's implementation. Far be it for me to defend Samsung from any ****ty practices but I do like to lay blame where it fits and this isn't a maneuver by Samsung to prevent you from doing anything.

Let's say for the sake of discussion that Samsung did this on purpose, what would be the end goal in it all? It's not like you can't use any third party launchers that you want.

What resources are being used by simply not disabling. At this point, in my opinion it's splitting hairs to claim "resources" as a valid concern when it comes to not being able to disable it when your device has 12gb of ram...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] lennie:
Hmm, then I wonder why the gesture is system wide and not just when the launcher is active on screen. The fact that it's system wide means something, right? If you use a launcher like the Microsoft launcher and enable gestures it'll only be available while the launcher is active. So what gives?

Oh and by the way I haven't really used nova in years.

And I sort of don't really care what their end goal is, could be just a deterrent to have people used their default launcher, who knows,who cares? I'm not going to sit here and try to figure out their motives are. What I do know is that a seemingly system wide feature is disabled when I disable the default Samsung launcher. And as I've mentioned before I've see them do this on other apps before. So its not so easy to just point the blame elsewhere. I guess Samsung has figured out how to make a launcher feature be a system wide feature.

Resources, it's valid for me. From my point of view you seem to be OK with whatever. I tend to keep a close eye on battery, ram, storage etc. I save battery where I can so when I need it I have it. I guess that's the mindset that comes with the benefit of getting 10 to 12hr sot instead of 6 to 8. I don't have unnecessary things running in the background using memory and battery power for no good reason. If I'm not using it, it shouldn't be running until I'm using it.

Splitting hairs is just your opinion really, it doesn't matter if I have 12gb of ram I do the same on my 32gb pc.

Android doesn't have a setting to aggressively put unused apps to sleep so you have them running in the background every other couple seconds each app will use .2% .5% .1.3% etc. Therefore with more than 30 processes running in the background your cpu is constantly running 5 to 7%. So no I'm not splitting hairs.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] pcriz:
Let me clarify. Google. The owner of Android tied recents to the launchers with system access. Does Microsoft launcher have root/system access? The answer is no. So that's why any third party launchers gestures do not work outside the launcher. That's what gives. I mean I'm not making this up. It's very well documented with the changes of Android 9...

So in my hypothetical situation. You can't explain what Samsung has to gain yet you will make statements alluding to Samsung doing it on purpose. But now we know that is false since the initial implementation that causes your issue comes from Google's source code. If we wanted to go full tinhat, we could say Google doesn't want you to use other launchers but then they could simply remove them from the store.

I dunno if your comprehension is off but Samsung didn't "figure out how to make it systemwide". It's literally Google's implementation.

I think I am starting to get some clarity though. This isn't about learning about why the system is the way it is. It's about blaming Samsung and being right for you.

I use a third party launcher and I have yet to see the one UI launcher even register in my battery usage. Your example of 12hr over 6 hours of sot to explain why you care about a launcher not being disabled is conjecture unless you can provide a screen shot of a launcher not set as default draining a battery so bad you lose two hours of sot. Also no one cares what launcher you use. Let's not cloud this with more semantics please..

Also you do realize that an app NOT being disabled doesn't mean it's actually running, right? Please tell me you understand that. I mean do you even have a screen shot of wake ups caused by the stock launcher in the background?

I mean for as knowledgeable as you want to come off you are woefully misinformed as to why your recents performs like it does after Android 9. Then you claim hours of lost screen on time because of a launcher sitting in the background.

Let me end my comment by saying this, background battery can be disabled on One UI Home and mine shows 0% battery used and my last full charge was almost 24 hours ago. Nevermind the app doesn't even sit in the ram to affect recents. But hey, you obviously need to be right so keep blaming Samsung for Google changes and claiming hours trimmed off your battery because an app exists on your device (but it's not running though..)

From 'https://github.com/deathkiller/jazz2' I also downloaded the 'Jazz2' file, but that one differs slightly from the extracted download above.

Challenge will be to get the application up and running, because I find the written steps at 'http://deat.tk/jazz2/#running-the-application' not very clear to follow.

Hello, everyone!

I'm pleased to announce to you my game Hungry Bird!

It's a casual game, great to play during any break time!

Fly the bird around the tree and try to eat fruits, but be aware of dangerous poisonous funguses!

To be more difficult, the game pace is speeding up every second.

And remember to eat many fruits as possible, because a hungry bird is an angry bird and certainly dead!

Tap left or right side of the screen to move your bird.

Eat all fruits to get the best score.

Avoid fungus or die.

Score highscores and get coins.

Use coins to slow down gameplay.

Share scores with your friends!

Hi,

To be honest the concept is not new. But adding a another bird (AI) which try to steal the food or try to collect food early from the bird. So you need to compete with the AI. This will spice up the gameplay. I hope this helps. Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion, I didn't think about it. But you are right this would make gameplay more challenging. I will keep it in mind!

Thank you for your opinion, I will considerate it in future. Can you specify what you mean to make fungus more "different" than fruits? Do you mean about adding some additional effects to them or changing totally graphic?
[Android Apps and Games] Sucuri Studio:
You can use a coloured outline, for exemple, green for fruits and red for fungus, so you can keep the inner colors but ill be clear to player which one is edible or not.
[Android Auto General] mut:
Hey people.

I have ordered a BMW motorbike, which has a wheel interface on the left handlebar.

This wheel controls various things on the bike, but also a seperate sat nav unit (Garmin something or other)

Anyway I have found a device called wunderLINQ which will convert the handlebar wheel interface into keyboard input

It has Up, Down, Left, Right, Enter and Escape.

It also sends data from the bike (tyre pressures, RPM, speed, etc etc)

I know some vehicles have android auto without a touchscreen (Mazda and audi at least) and I wondered if there was a way to get the android auto app on my phone to act like this?

Cheers,

Tom.
