Features like the air view, and the flip to silence or any of that.
I don't want it, but a friend of mine needs it. Also, preferably, without reducing the smoothness of vanilla.
For stock w/o root if possible but will root if needs be.
Are there apps that do this or does he have to flash something or what?
Look at Locale or Tasker in the Play Store for flip to silence. Air View will only be found in TW.

Uhm. Actually air view was the more important of the two. No app / mod that supports this?
as far as im concerned. Air View is hardware. you cant add it

Yep. I've tried using the S-Pen on my phones and they never work. So air view would probably not work. It would probably need extensive hardware and software modding to get it to work.
Isn't air view basically just a combination of your front camera and proximity sensors?
What about the eye scrolling thing?
Or the thing where when you look away from the phone the video pauses?

All those things are a TW feature/Gimmic only. They will never work on AOSP based roms. Even the GE version of the S4 doesnt have those things.

So there's absolutely no way of getting them on the Nexus 4? Damn.
Alright. Thanks!

Im looking to get a new tablet, and i'm torn between the N10, and Note 10.1. The N10 blows away the Note in every way but the ability to run more than one app on screen at a time. I want to be able to view my security cameras, and still run other apps outside of that. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks!

It is a framework mod in android that allows multiple apps to run on the same screen. Google.

dont know what its good for its pretty much just a screen saver for when phone is in a dock or is charging
i rather have the screen off when charging
This is a stock Android feature so its not a gimmick Lol. I use it to show my clock when its docked on the wireless charger. The only problem is that Samsung for some stupid reason took out the clock daydream... Can't wait until I get CM 10.1

Because there are so many people saying airgestures are gimmicks and a lot of other features but they all work and most are useful. More useful than daydream

Yes I argee most of these S4 gimmicks are very understated. But I also find daydream useful and I miss it a lot (now I have to buy a alarm clock for the time being)...

I'm planning on getting the htc one but some of these features seem really cool on the s4, so my question is do you use them all or are they just a bunch of gimmicks.

Really the only one that has impressed me is the eraser mode on the camera that removes moving objects... otherwise, all the "smart" features stay off. Battery hogs to the max.

Unless you use the "smart" features you don't know that for a fact. I have been using the smart features on and off for over a week, with the features / gimmicks on and running there isn't much battery drain at all.
While a lot of the features are gimmicks some are actually very useful.
Smart stay - (the best one out of all them, should be in stock Android)
Quick glance - (use this all time while it's on my desk or on a table)
Air view - (helps me dig through text messages fast and zoom in on some websites)
Air gesture - (I actually go in the gallery a lot and this makes browsing photos more fun and... natural? in a sense)
Palm motion - (use this all the time to answer phone calls and mute or pause music also use it to capture screenshots
Direct call - (I have to admit it's nice and very useful to just directly call someone while simply just moving the phone to your head while in the texting or contacts app)

I used Air View for a bit but it made my screen too sensitive which i used those specific programs.
besides that the only Air feature that i might turn on is Air Call Accept. And it only works during phone calls so its not bad.
The watchon TV controller thing is a bit weird. Doesnt work all the time..
Today I was eating lunch with my phone next to me. Got a call and used the gesture to answer and have the speaker turn on without me touching the phone. That was nice. Voice control camera is cool, but saying different things changes how the camera shoots. I'm still figuring that one out.
Thanks for the replies, none of these sounds useful to me.

OMG... I wasn't trying to come off negative, sorry if it seemed that way. I just hate when people like to call out facts when they haven't even used or tested the subject themselfs.
Notice I also said "unless" you did use them yourself.

Alright, i apologize for the snap judgement. Im fanatical about battery, and they do drain extra, which to me is unacceptable for what you get in exchange. Was much more impressed with the smart stay than any of the new ones, and depending on how many times you let the screen almost time out it can add a fairly substantial amount.
Your right, i should probably rephrase my 'hog' assessment, im probably more picky than others about battery. .

anyone use the new fancy cover with the window on it with any of the custom OS's out there?
none of them appear to support it either the "magic" ability, nor the special window support at all as far as I can tell

If your using a touchwiz ROM you should be fine... The screen turning on and off with the opening and closing of the cover is related to the proximity sensor and the window showing texts and missed calls always shows up there in that area on the screen so it should always show through that window

I think it uses magnets like the apple branded ones and the Nexus 7 covers.
The curiosity I had was more the functionality regarding the ability to answer calls and such without opening the cover.
It doesn't work to turn the screen off/on at all btw, There's an app you can get to do it, but it's pretty craptastic.

pie controls or goodlock? i dont have also.. but i search on google. so far no malware
I JUST started using PIE controls by coolace (due to having seen it on this threat). It is working great so far, no slowdown or hangs or anything.
I am using snapdragon Note 9
Thanks for mentioning the app by the way, I think it might be favorite edge/gesture control now (have tried many)
have a look, wondering this is normal ? but i done nothing on my phone ...

btw my is really slow right ?
i found one funny issue with my pie control, if i open pie control in any screen other than home screen, it work perfectly but in home screen it take few second to load, any one have idea what it cause ?
I am actually taking back my recommendation on this app...
more than once I have had it kind of "take over" my screen.
What I mean is, any touch on my screen is attempting to touch something in PIE control (and not actually graphically showing PIE control, btw).
you effectively can't do anything at that point.
Its been a few days since I stopped using it, but I really did pretty exhaustively try to figure out how to stop this.
I really liked this app's "swipe" method instead of pulling the PIE out and having to like hold on a button for a quick sec, this app lets you do it in a smooth swiping motion.
Anyways, ive given up and gone back to onscreen navigation keys.
Every method I have tried (including XDA's navigation) has had some small hangups that eventually have problems working.
And no I haven't reported errors and such in respective threads, I just give up because my "lots of effort into having a hacky phone" days are behind me
