galaxy s6 theme store ... possible ? - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody
I m wondering is there any way to enable samsung theme store ( s6) on our note 4 like this :
http://www.sammobile.com/2015/06/18...themes-released-today-in-samsung-theme-store/

That looks cool! I hope it gets integrated into our software releases too

We'll get that theme engine in 5.1, if we're to believe this redditor: http://www.reddit.com/r/galaxynote4...e_4_getting_the_new_camera_softwareui/csaf1rl

doubt it

I really do hope that Samsung will bring in a theme store in the next firmware update for the Note 4. As it is right now the GUI is way too bright even with the brightness settings at the lowest level.

It has nothing to do with the operating system (LP,MM) it has to do with samsung adding the framework to be able to apply the themes. In short we will never get it from samsung, but it can be ported from Galaxies S6,S7, or N5. We will eventually get a ROM base on other newer phones.

S note 2014 lack of features

I bought galaxy note 10.1 2014 to use in college, I noticed that the old version of S note has features that the new version doesn't, like auto shape match, I really need that feature and I don't know how to get it in the new version of S note.
can anyone help me with that ?
It's no longer "auto" you can use the transform tool. It's the dotted cloud icon

I know that, just the auto is so much better then that transform tool they put in the new version. so i was wondering if there is any way to get it back,
The older one had a tool for equations that seems to be missing too.

[DISCUSSION] Android M for Bacon!

So as some of you may or may not know tomorrow is Google I/O. And like last year Google will be announcing Android M. It will also most likely release an "M Preview" for the Nexus 6 and 9. Do you guys think it would be possible to port the M Preview from the Nexus 6 to OnePlus One. Also this thread is for everything related to Android M for the OnePlus One
Do you remember situation with Lollipop? I think it will be in the same way
It may be possible, though unlikely. It's just not really worth it. Too many bugs and instability. This time around I'll be looking forward to ports for the nexus 5. As I think it won't get Dev preview
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
Android M Developer Preview will be available today for Nexus phones. How long until someone makes port to Bacon, or how long until we see first ROM:? :fingers-crossed:

Here they go!
Guess it would be pretty sweet to get a little blend of a ROM with the cherry pickins from the Android M preview.
I think we will get the android m port when Google releases the sources of it.
Liking the new Google photos app, seems pretty slick and great that they detached it from Google+. Seems like they've refined Lollipop a bit and added some decent features. I've seen theres an option for dark theme built in now, maybe not as big a deal to us as we have total theme/customisation control, but the Nexus 6 users are going to appreciate that with their amoled display. Interested to see the app permission/privacy thing in a bit more detail as well. They sorted the volume control (mostly) with an expandable panel although is silent mode still missing?
Android M comes with App Permissions which is slick! Doze mode sounds cool but it doesn't seem to work with Google Play Services
If anyone is interested, the new google camera, search app and play services from the M-preview are already available on apkmirror (haven't tried them, son don't shoot me if they don't work).
Is it me, or is M just a slight update to lollipop?.. Why M and not 5.2?.. Most of the "features" are apps, not the OS.. The OS only got a few changes and is still virtually Lollipop.. I'm happy for the update, but, I had higher hopes for a full "version" jump..

I've tried them - DO NOT INSTALL !
First, you have to manually uninstall existing apps (uninstall updates, disable the built-in apps, reboot device). This allows installation of the new packages.
Second, the device will NOT boot - the new GMS triggers a crash in ProcessManager which brings down the whole system - you will probably have to re-flash the entire shebang.

Google app is working fine and Google Camera crashes on Panorama. that's all I've found atm.
So just GMS must be avoided. Also, for me apps installed just fine w/o uninstalling/rebooting
You guys should explain if these apks replace system apps or Google apps from play store

That's expected as you need a system lib to use the feature and installing google camera as a user app does not provide that.
It is clearly not possible to port this over. Our device uses heavy caf optimizations in kernel and framework (includes CM and Oxygen). Simply using the frameworks and app core from m will always result in a not booting device. We will have to wait for the source to be published.

Snooze has me intruiged , seems like its Project Volta but forced at a system level instead of waiting for developers to implement into apps
Is it possible to do fingerprint scanning via the screen, with software? Or does it have o be a separate piece of hardware?
I assume hardware
Do we have to wait for I/O to end before Google throws the switch to the M preview? I for see several servers crashing for about 2 days or at least 6-10 hours before a stead fast DL.

Is Android M really going to look the same as L? There has to be at least a little bit of UI changes.
I've never flashed a developer preview before. Is it possible to flash with a nexus toolkit or does it need to be done in adb?

It is really pretty underwhelming for a version uptick. It seriously looks like you could use M and never notice you didn't have Lollipop. Seems like Google is going all Mozilla in terms of versioning.
They already mentioned that there were minor tweaks to the core experience, but they probably don't feel they were worth highlighting.
L was a huge visual revolution. Why did people expect M was going to have a big graphical overhaul or update?

Probably because most people expect a major name-branded update to have something they'd visually notice....not a collection of under-the-hood bug fixes and side improvements that you could easily never notice. Because all the stuff they highlighted are things that even power users might never touch or notice were there.
I suppose that's fair, but on their yearly update schedule I'm betting just about every update in the future will be name-branded, and I doubt they'll all be UI-heavy. Either way, I still see a lot I'm excited for. Android Pay will be nice as someone who uses but has grown tired of Wallet, and contextual Google Now in apps is pretty cool as well.

Yup just like the crazy differences between Froyo and Gingerbread. Or the transformation of Jelly Bean into Kit Kat.
In reality we have no idea what visual changes will be made because the software is not finalized. The M preview is just a dev preview so that apps can be updated with the latest APIs from day 1. They barely showed anything as it relates to M that would show any real visual differences.
People act surprised that M looks the same as L. Look at Google history most updates don't change too much (if at all) from updates. ICS to JB etc. Yes GB did have a green theme but that was already having several updates with minimal ui changes except maybe a launcher. Hell even KK was very similar to JB. Take away google now launcher and visually they look the same

The most frustrating thing is there are allegedly "1000s" of bug fixes from reports. They claim they're in the M preview, and they claim said preview will be available later today....I know this is a revolutionary thought, so hold on to your hat, but why not push those fixes to Lollipop and publish 5.1.2 next week? Rather than force users to have to wait possibly 5-12 months for an update they may never get (depending on their device OEM)?
The alleged number of fixes in M are an order of magnitude greater than the number of fixes in all the Lollipop updates for the Nexus 6, combined, thus far. And Lollipop is still pretty buggy, especially if you're not on a Nexus.

IIRC KK brought a bunch of notification tray improvements in ICS and JB. But that was ages ago, and I'm going off memory. Also KK ran a ton better than ICS or JB.

Substratum not working

hi guys
i have an s8+ running renivate ice note 8 port. problem is i can't seem to get substratum to work for me. i apply the theme without errors and when i restart nothing happens. i'm running magisk if that matters.
any help would be appreciated
...
Maybe the addon (sungstratum) is also needed for a rooted s8(+). I have used it without root and after rooting it still works fine on my s8
Make sure both Substratum and the Samsung add-on are installed from the play store and up to date, and that you're using up to date themes that support Samsung, also installed from the play store.

Exactly. Also, stress on the compatibility of the Theme with Samsung, click on the theme you like and read the description. If it supports Samsung, you'll find it listed there.
I had trouble with it, because there is currently no free "samsung-compatible" theme on the Play Store. I had to buy Swift Black($1.99) because it was Samsung compatible, and wa-la! That works just fine.

Substratum recent did a really dumb thing and broke every single theme that hasn't explicitly enabled Samsung support, suddenly without absolutely no warning or notice to devs or users. The best part is they didn't do it on purpose, they just have a bug that no one who knows how cares enough to fix. Ive literally pointed to the diff and line in the code that's broken but I can only get one person involved to even remotely care and they don't code (they do support/community stuff).
It's gotten ridiculous to the point of that I'm going to have to fix it myself, which means spending part of my weekend setting up Android studio so I can make a 5-10 line code change.
What's even more sad is that apparently some senior substratum devs are essentially openly hostile towards Samsung support now and apparently just killing it (despite it at least currently working almost flawlessly) for Oreo instead of keeping it.
I really don't want to have to fork substratum but it's one of the reasons I love this phone. I'm not going to buy a lame ass pixel 2 xl because some angry devs think it's good practice to screw over their users.

[MARCH 10] Good Lock 2019 with Android Pie support

Good Lock 2019 with Android Pie support is finally here.
Many Good Lock fans were not excited to see that most of its apps and plugins no longer functioned properly when the*One UI beta*was released for the Galaxy S9 last year. The development team later confirmed that they were working to make Good Lock compatible with Android Pie.
For those who are unaware, Good Lock provides users with an array for customizable features for their handset. The first ever Good Lock app was released in 2016 with compatibility for Android 6.0 Marshmallow. Samsung then*updated the app in 2018 with support for Android 8.0.
The core features in Good Lock*include Quickstar, Lockstar, Task Changer, Routines, Clockface, Edge Touch, Edge Lighting and more. The development team has said that the updated version brings some improvements for these features as well.
Task Changer gets new styles for recent apps while MultiStar enables some of the Multi Window functionality that was removed from Pie due to some Google policy. Much of the functionality remains the same so you’ll be familiar with it if you have used Good Lock 2018.
Good Lock 2019 does not remove geographical restrictions. It’s only available to users in the United States, South Korea, Australia, Singapore, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Samsung’s list of supported markets isn’t complete but some other markets like India do have it as well. It can be downloaded there*from the Galaxy Store.
Do keep in mind that Good Lock 2019 with Android Pie support is available for the Galaxy Note 9 and older flagships running Pie. It does not work with the Galaxy S10 currently. An update will be released later with support for the new flagship series. Those who have Good Lock installed already can update from within the app or get the APKs and install them manually.

TUTORIAL :
What you want to do is hold down on the home screen on Nova Launcher and hit widgets. Then, choose the activities widget. Then once it loads, look for the apps that you have installed. The list of the ones I have been able to found are: Lockstar, One Hand Operation+, QuickStar, Routines. Edge Lighting+ and Edge Touch have their own icons.

Install QuickShortcutMaker from the Google Play Store and open it. You are going to need to do this every time you want to change settings for some good lock features because the Good Lock UI is broken in any country that isn’t South Korea.
There are different app names for each feature to change. You need to do this for LockStar (Lock Screen Options), Routines, QuickStar (Quick Settings Options), and Task Changer (Recents Menu Options.) You can click on this then select the first activity in the list. Then click the button that says Try, it will open the settings and allow you to use the Good Lock tools. You will need to do this every time you want to change the settings until Samsung releases Good Lock for other countries.
Can somebody help me with the lockstar app ? It won't show a clock and I can't select apps . Don't know what's wrong with it .
The clock is activated in the show tab so it's not that
Any ideas what apps or settings maybe conflicts with the lockstar ?
Good Lock 2018 on Nougat
Hi guys, I made run Good Lock on Nougat. It makes me create new combinations, but when i press apply the app crashes.
