Air command not showing up anymore? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a strange problem,
After restoring some apps i can't get the air command to show up..
Pressing the s-pen button does nothing
And detaching the s-pen usually triggers air command (I've set it that way in the settings)
But now it only pops up a message on top left "S-pen has been detached"
Any idea why?

Bump, still cant get this to work.. theres probably something conflicting with air command just like accessibility conflicts with one handed operation

Settings > Controls > Air Command
Now I saw it.

I continue to have a problem with Air Command disappearing. I ended up completely wiping and reflashing along with wiping my internal (which I never did coming to Sacs_N4-N3), everything is running smoother now, and AC was working. Then I tweaked the animation settings (going from .25 on all to 1x, and changing from stock speed in Nova to Relaxed), making sure I paid attention to where the setting were to change back if anything happened. And sure enough, AC disappeared. Even after changing everything back and rebooting I can't get it to come back. Is there anything I can flash/push to system to get it to come back (framework, systemUI) or some setting I should change? And I've tried just toggle off/on in settings with no luck. Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem. Obviously there is something in the settings that mess with the Air command. When I did factory reset and no restore settings restore from google everything started working again. Somehow, I've changed something that broke the air command service from starting and listening to the pen bus messages

Interesting. I have all animations turned off (under dev settings) and Apex is set to the highest speed. Air Command works perfectly fine.

Auto Rotate

I installed the froyo beta, and ever since then, my phone won't auto rotate anymore. Ive already ODINed back to stock, it still wont work Any ideas or help?
-Edit-
I downloaded Accelerometer Test to make sure that the accelerometer wasn't busted. It's working fine. The phone just will not rotate.
Only two things I can think of:
1: Go to settings > Sound and Display > Make sure Orientation is checked.
2: (If using Launcher Pro). Menu button while on homescreen > Preferences > Behavior Settings > make sure Enable Auto-rotation is checked.
Other than that, no idea :\

On stock, the homescreens wont rotate unless the keyboard is slid out.
Is it rotating on the browser and on pictures?

No. And if i slide the keyboard out, it rotates. But then it gets stuck in landscape unless i go to something that forces portrait mode, such as the home screen.

Ah if its even getting stuck in landscape mode than its got to be something framework or .apk related.
Beats me, sorry man :\ Hope someone is able to help you more so than I could.

pay attention to the bump at bottom on back.
I hung said bump off the edge of table

THANK YOU! I had the same problem and this fixed it. Of course, i had to root my shizzle again. By chance did anyone with this problem run the Froyo 2.2 built-in calibration before this came about?
Oh wow, thank you so much!! The fix using the terminal emulator totally worked for me too, I thought I was going to have to go back to stock to see if it would fix itself! After running the lines in the terminal, it still wouldn't automatically detect orientation, so went to the display settings, unchecked orientation, and checked it again, and now works perfectly! The lack of orientation was so frustrating, especially after using the keyboard and the only way to fix it was turning off the screen... thanks again!
Does this increase the speed of rotating in froyo beta cuz i noticed the rotating is really slow

This helped for me. I was having the slow rotation problem as well. This fixed it. I didn't see results right away though. Took a few minutes and a restart to work

Just wanted to bump this. I had issues with auto rotation broken after going to DK28 and downgrading back to DI18.
I didn't test if it fixed it or not, however it did remove the annoying lag on DK28 when the screen rotates. Only reason I was downgrading
What terminal app did you use?
It says "su" is not found

Air Gesture not working

Hi... sorry for my bad english
I've just bought GS4 since yesterday and I found an odd problem...
When I enable the air gestures for example air jump, air move etc. none of them works.
but when I try the training section they work correctly...
even It's icon doesn't appear on the status bar, but it appears when Im trying the tutorial... and It just disappears when i go back to the menu..
And I have not installed any rom or update yet...
any Idea?
oh I got why it was happening...

I found that when u enable it, it just works when on certain situations... for example when u are viewing pics u can go to next pic with air gesture or when u have a call u can answer it... but when there's no use for air gesture for example when u are in menu it's automatically disabled...

I'm in the same boat. Air View works maybe 10% of the time across all apps that support it. The odd thing is that I took my new S4 into an AT&T store to see if they could figure it out. They checked all the settings, which were correct. They were stumped also. We could get it to work rarely, just enough to frustrate you. There were two guys trying to figure it out. They finally just gave me a new phone. We set it up for my account etc., loaded everything from the cloud backup, and what the hell the new one does the exact same thing. We just sat there and looked at it in disbelief. We must have played with both phones for an hour and a half and made no progress. I even started deleted various apps (I don't have a lot), but nothing. I'm totally stumped.
did you guys figure out anything, because my sgs4 gestures do not work at all, none of them, and they are ALL switched on in settings...
Very odd...
I used to have problem with air gesture .but noe its working good .
Check that
menu-my device-accesibility-put magnification gestion to off
AHA about Gestures not working!
For some reason, Samsung has hidden toggles for the gesture features WITHIN the gesture features... what I mean is if you toggle ON the gesture called "air gesture", NOTHING WILL HAPPEN unless you then tap to the LEFT of the toggle switch, and go INTO the Air Gesture sub-menu. Once you are in there, there are 5 OTHER toggles which must also be on if you want to use all the air gesture features.... WEIRD that Samsung did this without saying "Tap Here to select Air Gesture features" or something...
Mark.

[Q] Multi window does not work

Hello,
The multi window option of my GN3 doesn't work, the bar on the left hand side does not appear when i keep pressing the return button.
Of course, the multi window option is activated in the settings.
By the way, my GN3 is rooted.
Can someone help me fixing this problem ?

Check if the multiwindow toggle is on at notification or quick toggle menu.
Did you freeze com.sec.android.app.FlashbarService, by any chance?
If yes, that's the multiwindow bar you froze.
If no, are you long-pressing return or just clicking it? You need to hold return, not click it.

Peculiar. What it does for me when I press Multi Window is a cycle of three settings:
1. Show the (<| toggle (bad graphical representation) on the right (or left) side in the middle of screen.
2. Hide the toggle completely
3. Show the bar.
Try clearing the cache and data on com.sec.android.app.FlashbarService. If that doesn't help, try wiping the system cache in recovery.

I did that as well and i wiped the cache partition but it still doesn't work..

Other than a factory reset, sadly no.

I tried to reset my phone with a rom stock thanks to Odin but it didn't work. I think that the method that i followed was not correct.
Can you tell me how to reset my phone with Odin ?
Nobody can help me ?
I'm waiting for solution too. .. but my case is it kept force close the flashbar service.

Hey Folks,
i did not want to open a new thread for this topic, so i searched and added my problem to this existing thread.
Since a few days my Note 3 (N9005) is also not able to use Multi Window.
The Option in Settings is not highlighted and can not be turned to "on" anymore.
S Pen Window works (but only with standard apps like calculator, browser etc.)
Screenshot of Quick Settings: (Notice gray background of the symbol)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxAZku3RVKxcRGNubUY0c0JnVVE/view?usp=sharing
I did not change anything in the last few weeks (only a new microSD (32GB))
Everything Stock, no Root, Official 4.4.2
Maybe there is a solution other than factory reset
Thanks a lot!
Greetings

Just reinstall MultiWindowTrayService and FlashBarService...
Ok,
that sound easy. But where do i find these services?
i took a look around in the file system, but did not find anything.
can you maybe share a link for the .apk´s from a reliable source!?
Edit:
After trying some .apk´s (from android host) they all respond with "app could not be installed".
Any other ideas maybe?
i dont want to restore my device/data but it seems like it is the only option.
Thanks a Lot!

Slightly wet the button area, now the home button keeps triggering non stop.

Ive tried the following solutionsb

Phone is currently sitting in a bag of rice so let's see how that goes.
Meanwhile, can anybody think of a way to disable the home button (perhaps through terminal or something)? Because the phone would basically be usable.. I know there are button settings, so if only I could somehow put home button as "no action".

The thing is the constant pressing of home button makes me not able to navigate anywhere.
The only place I can actually do something is in recovery, because the home button doesn't actually do anything.
If there's a way I can enable it in terminal in recovery mode that would be great.

Hope the moisture dries out and your fingerprint reader starts working normally
Tip of advice for everyone who has problems with the fingerprint reader after it got wet or started to get crazy for any weird reasons at all.
Drain the phone battery until it dies. Then try to boot it up to drain even the last power in it.
Then recharge the phone.
By draining the battery and recharghing it you reset the phone's sensors.
Be lucky some of you aren't living in a country like me where the weather is moist all the time. I had to do this method thrice this week ??

How to let the application run in the background of the operating system in android 7 EMUI 5.0, Huawei-Mat 8?
In the previous version, Android 6, the application should be kept in the Protected Apps, but after updating the operating system the Protected Apps disappeared.

It doesn't say it anywhere but you have to restart the phone for each change there to take effect.

Not receiving notifications when you should be? Here's a Huawei oddity that we've found to be irksome with some apps not sending alerts/notifications even when all settings are apparently correct (WhatsApp is our problematic one). It's to do with EMUI's strict power efficiency. If you stop receiving notifications try this (to access Ignore Optimisations): access Apps (method above) > hit the blue settings cog icon to the bottom > select Special Access under the Advanced tab > Unrestricted Data Access. Here apps can be granted always-on data irrelevant of what other settings state. source: www.pocket-lint.com/news/140204-hua...-tricks-take-charge-of-your-mate-9-p9-honor-8
