I just bought a new galaxy note 3, and while customizing I noticed the following options r not available even though its present in other galaxy devices:
Unable to hide an app in the app drawer
Unable to create a setting shortcut (tethering) from the widget menu
Unable to have app shortcuts in lock screen with pattern lock enabled
If there is a way to enable these option, please share.
Bump!

Hi all,
I have strange problem at Lockscreen, when i press the back button at Lockscreen a grey squre appear and the only option is to slide to unlock the screen.
Please see Attached file
I've look at the Lockscreen settings but there is no option that is talking about apps (already disable it).
Hope that someone is having the same problem.
Thanks,
Roy.
I'm not sure what you mean. But if you want to add a widget scroll the top half until you see a plus sign, tap it and choose a widget.
If it's short cuts, that's done through the menu somewhere like in your pics

It is not really a problem. I don't really understand you too but if you want apps on the lockscreen you have just to go in settings and when you are in the lockscreen there are in. When you swipe widgets pages the apps disappear and you have to swipe to the top for seeing it.

thr s always two way to access lock-screen setting;
setting > display > lock-screen
security > lock-screen (or screen lock)
on lock-screen option u press on it (instead of disable/enable toggle) then u will go to complete setting of lock-screen
:good:
Maybe I didn't explain myself I want to disable the widgets so I will not get the grey squre.

How do you add a settings shortcut for battery and wifi manager on the home screen? I've been scouring through the widgets and nothing seems to appear, normally with all other phones a "settings" widget is available and you get to choose which settings you want a link to.
Thanks

i was using the galaxy note ii for a while and loved settings widget/shortcut. i moved on to the galaxy note 3 on a different carrier. i also have sm-n9005. both note 3s do not have the settings widget. it is frustrating. what i recommend is installing action launcher by chris lacy. it will add 2 widgets to the widget launcher/menu. choose the activities widget. the list of apps and settings that populates is more extensive than the note ii's version. there you can add bluetooth, data usage, wifi, and tethering one by one. after creating all the shortcuts i needed, uninstalled action launcher. remember to keep touchwiz as your default launcher in the beginning of the process.
(on a side note, action launcher is great. i even purchased the pro key. however, i just don't like the way apps look in folders. in addition, 1x1 widgets do not align properly with regular app icons sometimes. as for 4 row widgets, it automatically adds margins/padding so they look more align with other same sized widgets. some 4 row widgets on touchwiz go edge to edge which is annoying. in regards to the s pen features, air command did not pop up on action. honorable mention, shutters is a great action feature. last mention, i don't use action on the note 3.)
hello everyone, my name is opey i'm kinda new to the whole Samsung galaxy s4. I'm on 4.3 right now and i want to be able to use a cam lockscreen widget so i can have quick access to my cam. I can't figure out how to get the widget to my lock screen. can anyone help me out with this?
Well I don't have my phone nearby. But I think the option is at on the second tab on the settings screen. I think it's called my device. And in there is option of lock screen and there you need to check option for enable lock screen widget.

Hi, I am wondering if there is a way to keep the Multiwindow function on but hide the little tab that overlays on every screen. I know I can enable/disable miltiwindow in the notification toggles, but I would rather have it hidden and turned on. I have the Note 10.1 2014 and I much prefer the way they did that multiwindow where a swipe from the right opens it up and there is no tab overlay. Any apps/mods that will do this?
Also, is there a way to easily add all of my apps to the multiwindow list? I have MW apps manager but I still have to manually add each app to the list that is available, and I can not sort the apps by name which makes it a huge pain to find the app I want quickly. Thanks.

Hold down the back button to hide it, again to show it.
Search play store for multi window manager.

I've been unable to find any lock screen apps that can override the TouchWiz lock screen. Such apps either state 'not compatible' in the App store or they simply don't work (e.g. the TouchWiz lock screen still takes precedence).
Without rooting the Tab A and flashing a custom ROM, has anyone found a way to replace the lock screen app?
Thanks,
M.
I'm using that : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.achep.acdisplay&hl=en
Make sure to go into Settings and switch the lockscreen to None when using another lockscreen app.
