Enable Multi-window in android 6 marshmallow - One (M8) General

How to enable multi-window in Android 6 Marshmallow:
There is a workaround to get split view mode on your smartphones, if you have rooted your device. To activate multi-windows in your devices, here are the steps you need to follow:
- Install Marshmallow on your Android smartphone.
- Root your device
- From Google Play Store, install a file manager app with root access.
- Open the newly installed file manager app and grant it root permission.
- Go to /system/ directory and open build.prop file.
- Inside the file, change the value of build type from user to userdebug.
- Save the build.prop file.
- Reboot your device.
- Once back, enable Developer Options: go to Settings > About Phone > tap on Build Number seven times.
- Go back to Settings > Developer Options > go to the bottom of the Drawing category and enable Multi-window from the options.
- Congrats.

After Trying many methods, i found that non of the build.prop values was changed.
I think it not HTC that excluded this feature, it all about the rooting i think.
CAN ANYONE CONFIRM?

Works with M8 GPE, just tried.

Did you use the traditional rooting?

Yes, and System Write Protection Disable Mod.

I also stated in the OP of the rooting thread, if you are going to modify the system anyway, just go with the traditional root method. Chainfire disabled system write while using systemless root method to maintain system partition integrity.

After using it i can definitely say Multi window is poorly implemented, not worth using. Not as easy as Samsung's implementation.

Ya its still a very much alpha I would say.. Maybe in the next version we will see if fully implemented.

It had worked for me...thanks

World ok. Know thats not like Samsung one but, well we didnt have it

Why post that here ? This is a multi window thread....not a how to root thread ?!

Yes I know, but multi window NEED root, Sorry anyway.

Didn't find the file in buildprop to change to userdebug but did flip on multiwindow in developer options.
How will I know if it's working? How to make it work now that it's turned on?

HTC_IME (custom keyboard) for Tattoo.

the guys in this thread have put together an awesome keyboard replacement. however, because of Tattoo's small resolution, even the low-res version looks like this:

I don't know how to modify the keyboard so it would work on Tattoo, but maybe someone else can. please go to the original thread if you think you can help developing the app.
+1 would be cool!
I also posted in the original thread... I hope someone fixes it! =)

Hey Thank you. Let me see if that works
No, It doesnt work . I got this messege Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_INCONSISTENT_CERTIFICATES]
How did you install it ?
You have to push it with ADB.
Im doing this:
Code:
adb remount
adb push HTC_IME.apk /system/app
adb push Clicker.apk /system/app
adb install -r HTC_IME.apk
adb install -r Clicker.apk
adb reboot
You don't have to install it ! Just reboot and it's done.
I did it. it keeps the huge keyboard
This is how my keyboard looks, its hard to tell but each letter is a little bit vague but it works ok... i would like to know if anyone else has this problem, its almost like each letter looks hand drawn with a pen !!!
..
fixed
ignore my last post !!
was on wrong track.. tattoo res unsupported, in process of fixing now..
.
some news from that thread:
It's not technically difficult to port the mod to Tatto. However, I don't think that I will ever do it given what I have to work with now. I don't have the time to keep several code bases up to date (spare time project after all) so I must be able to share code bases between the different resolution versions. The two current versions are from Desire and Legend. They are essentially the same from a code point of view so it's feasible for me to keep them both updated. The current Tattoo version is an older HTC_IME generation with several differences in the internal logic. It's possible to port my hack one by one manually to the Tattoo version, but I don't have the time. The source code is posted so anybody who want's to start working on it can do so...

I get Install_Failed_dexopt when trying to install?!
Well I can try mess a bit around with it... but it's smali files which isn't my strongest site, sadly
Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general
though it would best match t&a, let me know when it's solved and I will move it accordingly then
I checked again the thread and in the first post there is no longer a warning that the keyboard doesn't work on tattoo.
however when i did a quick search though the pages i didn't find anyone who would successfully install the keyboard on tattoo. someone mentioned that it doesn't work correctly, but only in landscape mode.
i will try to install the latest (27) version later today and will post screenshots afterwards.
I've tried the newest v27 and the keyboard is still too great. No Screenshots there because nothing changed.

Hrck mods(Color and stock roms only)

I spent my earlier part of this evening making this with a tool.It's an aroma installer package and for those who don't know what that is it's a mod which gives u an extra GUI in recovery and allows you to pick what mods you want to install.It's limited right now and read all here before messing up your device and coming back to report an error you made.
Disclaimer:I'm not responsible if your phone explodes,shocks you or melts or whatever.Do this at your own risk if there really are any.
The first version of this mod has 3 sections.
-You'll find root apps.Framaroot,root tools and xposed installer.Choose if you want them.
-You'll find nodo camera mod(don't use if you aren't on stock),and the xperia gallery app and more in the app section.Don't install oppogallery2 if your not on the stock rom except you want to try and you know how to revert.
-The clock widget section is a choose one only option to choose between the Oppo green,red,yellow clock widget respectively.Don't choose the 3 or you'll end up with the yellow.I included the order in the title so you don't have to remember.(due to renaming issues I had with the aroma compiler you need to go into /sytem/app and rename any oppodigitalclockwidgetG or r to "OppoDigitalClockWidget.apk")
This is the beginning and I'll add more and keep the package apps updated.
Hit thanks to say thanks and happy flashing.This are all compiled by me so if you share give me credit.
Thanks to:

go read Somewhere what is an aroma installer and what is its purpose.Don't bug the thread. Read and understand before posting.
all I am saying is this thing serves no purpose. none of these things require recovery to install so you've effectively only increased the complexity of installing them.

It's an all at once install package of all those apps. I maybe doing debloating very soon and ur comments are just discouraging me. There is more to the power of aroma and I started with apps only.

Ok now I understand, it's a work in progress. My apologies.
A debloating script would be a welcome alternative to installing Color Mod
although, may I suggest, we keep the debloating script and the bloating script separate?

Thanks for the aroma installer, add as many options as you can, I really appreciate it myself. I really don't see why their should be any complaints at all, the aroma installer is a very good option. If you don't want the mod that is in the aroma installer then don't select to install it. I don't think some people know what aroma is, and how Dev's make things easy for a lot of people with this tool and really how nice of a tool that it is. It really makes things very simple to add mods and apps and do so much more with your device in a very easy way, its as easy as it gets to be able to select what mods, apps, and so many other options in one simple to use tool. keep the installer going add whatever and as much as you can, and once again thank you for your time and hard work.

[ROM] [TW 5.0.2][T800] EnlargedUI / Custom DPI

EnlargedUI ROM
I now present an Enlarged Verison of touchwiz in which is what I think it should look like. Many users have complained about the small dpi and such in which I hate it too. I have discovered that changing dpi works fine on systemui and framework. Unfortunately, not so well for samsung apps as expected. So hope you guys enjoy this!
Features
-Most of samsung apps included for samsung experience.
-Custom DPI that you can change
-LargerUI
-Themes coming soon​
BUGS
Few apps crashing, Wallpaper chooser broken, and some more
DOWNLOADs
EnlargedUI v1 T800: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952609385
SuperSU FOR ROOT: https://download.chainfire.eu/740/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.49.zip
INSTRUCTIONS​Make sure your on an Lollipop Bootloader​!
1. Download ROM and latest SuperSU beta from link
2. Make a backup in twrp
3. Factory reset, then hit advanced wipe and wipe system
4. Flash rom and supersu beta.
5. Wait 20 minutes and done!
6. There is no setup wizard just because of it broken. Simply just go into settings and put your stuff in.
7. Keyboard should work by default. If not just hit swiftkey and set it up
THANKS To..
@Tkkg1994 for the huge help!
@ykkfive for big help in theming (fixed shift bug)

Since I'm lazy, and hate making custom roms.. I might create a mod zip to make dpi larger. Of course it will replace some of touchwiz apps but I don't think people will mind. I should of thought of that lol. I will set the dpi to the one you suggested for T700. For T800 (this rom) it's set to 340dpi. Will work on the mod zip sometime soon.
At first moment, I suggest 384 (320+ 20%). I hope, when you break this development it will be possible to adjust it.
It will be best to use it with most popular t700 rom (@basic), but it is more complicated and I am sure you must coordinate wit him about this.
So, if you make it first for stock rom, I will test it with pleasure.
Just give me instructions...

If you don't mind having svoice, Samsung camera and a few other Samsung apps, then I could come up with something. I'll use 384 dpi when I start on it.
