Hope that it gets root access quick. Maybe a custom rom could add the feature back to the phone

Yeah, it doesn't work. It's just like Blocking Mode when the S3 was originally released. You could find it and turn it on in a similar way, but it didn't actually do anything when turned on (even though the icon was displayed in the task bar just like it is for this).

Yup the GN2 was the same way. It required extensive code to get it working right due to the integration with TouchWiz. I am hoping this might be quite a bit simpler.
I am going to compare the t-mobile code and the vzw code to see the differences.

[Q] Multi Window mod for s4?

Couldn't find this anywhere but on the s3 the devs had a mod to use ANY and EVERY app on multi view. Is this mod available for the s4 yet? It's annoying not being able to use certain apps simultaneously other wise great phone
Also, do you think that devs will be able to make any mods or tweaks with the air view/gesture features? Like switch between recent apps with the wave of a hand or something?
Works on s4!

It works exactly as advertised. After enabling other apps, a simple reboot is needed. From then on, whatever app you've added to multi Window will be available to use with any other app in multi Window.

T-Mobile User Using Omega Questions

I absolutely love this ROM. I'm keeping an eye on the camera updating thread for a fix.
Does anyone know how to get the 4g icon back for my data icon on status bar?
Is there a build prop edit to make it read from a different system ui area?
I've read a lot about omega dark theme but can't find it for the life if me. This a lot community and hope to run across another member who's been here and done that

What about t-mobile. Can I just change to what t-mobiles build prop says and I'll have the 4g icons back? Have you tried this yourself? Was there any negative impact on anything? Thanks

Well I went for it. I'm t-mobile so I put the t-mobile build prop in and my 4g icons are back. The at&t would have worked fine also. Thanks sooooooooo much C13v3r0n3

I'm confused. You're a T-Mobile user asking questions about Omega, which afaik is a Euro ROM. And this is an AT&T forum.
Is there an Omega port for the AT&T phone? I don't see one in the ATT dev forum.
I've been thinking about flashing the i9505 version of Omega just to see what all the fuss is about.
I'm a t-mobile user. Flashed omega I9505 rom and my dedicated t-mobile kernel. Everything is perfect
I thinks awesome with all the options we have on this phone. Is only going to get better as AOSP source is going to be released for our devices. Not that I want to run AOSP but it opens the development flood gates even more! We're off to a great start. Best I've ever seen on a new device

Yea it all works fine, im not really sweating the firmware message. I was just digging around in the apk looking for that message and I was going to get rid of the check all together but I cant seem to find the code.

That would be awesome. More then likely there's no update for it, maybe it just needs to verify something in the kernel? Hope you get it

Kernels are beyond me at this point, im thinking its in the framework apk or something, I swapped the camera apk from a stock att rom and it did the same thing.
So far I have swaped the lib files the apk and the cameradata folder, none have worked.

I'm use to seeing that t-mobile 4g icon so never paid close attention to what exactly was going on with 3g to hspa+ normal transitions. I'm seeing the 3g to H constantly bouncing back and forth. Does data try to stay on 3g unless there's data demand and then it reaches out for a better hspa+ connection? When looking in settings /status it's indeed bouncing back and forth. My data seems to be the same using both the epct-mobile.com and the fast. T-mobile.com APN.
Do you think this is normal guys or should I try to find a fix. My data is ok doing speed test. Around 9mb down average. I would think that it should stay in hspa+connection?
Thanks I would really appreciate any clarification or if another t-mobile user using I9505 roms could share there experience. Thanks

Under all apps it is called clock widget. Not sure what the official apk name is. It's probably the lg one that you mentioned. If you dont mind,PM me a link on the files so I can grab them or share them with me through google if you would like.
The lg clock widget definitely has references in it to quick cover. I was only able to look at it for a bit, but it had all the colors and mentions of the fancy watch faces as well. I didn't see where that would get activated though. I was going to look at lglockscreen tonight to see if there was a way in there to add more widgets. Let me know if you find anything and if i can help. Good luck

So i haven't found anything in the framework. I'm gonna see if i can get ahold of systemui or the launcher app and look into both of those. I did however create a slightly modified clock widget app for quick window. If someone would like to test for me... The only differences should be that purple is changed to green and i took out the backdrop faded 8 behind each number. I would appreciate a tester to let me know if the mods worked or not.
Thank you. link below

Yup I tried the same logical step, but to no avail.. SMH at Samsung! I did download the Data Enabler Widget which does the same thing, but still disappointed as to why they would remove an important toggle.. At least give us an option to restore it!

I personally have never found a reason to want to toggle data on and off so I never even noticed it was missing. That being said, would you be able to use Tasker to watch for another quick toggle (such as S Beam or Blocking Mode) to activate/deactivate and then toggle data accordingly? At least that would give you a solution more closely related to what you are used to. Just a thought.

Change kitkat lockscreen wallpaper?

Jellybean allowed you to change either lockscreen or home wallpaper. Now kitkat changes both at once it doesn't ask which one you wanna change, or am I completely missing it? I Googled it and can't seem to figure this out -.- this is on Beanstalk on my s4, girlfriends Verizon s3, and friends att s3. so I know it's not just me lol.

Its not intuitive at all. I installed a theme and then couldn't get rid of the lockscreen wallpaper. A theme can override your normal wallpaper by setting a lock screen wallpaper. To fix this you need to go to settings -> themes -> lock screen wallpaper -> clear
Took me awhile to figure this out. Hope it helps someone else.
