New TouchWiz UI for Marshmallow users, removes Sprint branding (no root) - Sprint Galaxy Note 4 General

Some of you may have seen this:
http://www.xda-developers.com/samsu...iz-is-a-ui-giant-leap-forward-two-steps-back/
Turns out it appears to work for the Note 4 Marshmellow users as well. I've been using it for only a little bit, one change I noticed is that it removes the Sprint branding in the upper left without requiring root. I searched for the app in Galaxy Apps, it wasn't available there, but you can download the apk attached to this post
The recent apps feature is pretty terrible, but it's something different you guys can try.
EDIT: I tried this with the fingerprint scanner, it made me not able to get past the lock screen, all I saw was a blank wallpaper. I guess it works on the Note 4 but not optimized for it. I was able to finally get past it by clicking on the notifications, messing with the settings on GoodLock, causing it to crash, and then my phone rebooted with it uninstalled.

This is interesting. I'm testing it out to see how it goes. Can you say anything about battery life compared to without it?

CAREFUL!! I just set up finger print scanner with this to see how it functions, now I can't get past the lock screen, all I see is my wallpaper, even in safe mode, I might have to do a hard reset :\
Edit: finally got past the fingerprint scanner after the app crashed and made my phone reboot, and then gave me the option to type in the password instead. It worked great prior to setting that portion up though, so mixed feelings about it so far.

negative. there's a lockscreen bypass you can flash in TWRP
it simply disables your lockscreen. I have seen it and for some time, had it, but no longer thanks to a goofed internalsd format ;(
if you find it, please post link!

It felt laggy to me, I've already taken it down. I love the notification bar though

are there any added features? i.e. multi-user support or even a theme store?

not really imo, apart from letting you group notifications and setting alerts for them, and making the notification pull down menu look closer to stock android.
Edit: I take that back. When you take a screenshot now it comes up with 3 options, more/share/crop. If you hit more, it lets you take a scrolling screenshot without having to use the s-pen.

Is it work for note 4 lollipop?

Alright, well, I jumped back on board to see if I could make this work for me. What I did was install the APK as usual and then used TB to delete the system UI (launcher). Since I use NOVA anyway, I also deleted TouchWiz and TouchWiz Easy crap... This setup has me running faster and with better battery life than ever before! Can't wait for a kernel for this MM situation!

That's crazy that you deleted TouchWiz, didn't even know that was possible lol, hopefully you don't run into any issues, because I had it crash once which caused it to just uninstall itself from my phone.

Good Lock updated with some gesture controls (Which I have yet to test) and bug fixes.

Is this easy to revert back to standard UI if I don't like it?

Edit: I'll answer my own q, there is an uninstall option in the settings.
This actually seems pretty nice, I appreciate the chance from the same old Samsung noti dropdown.
I am missing the wifi calling on quick settings already, however.

Three options in the settings. Uninstall is one of them

Instagram Problem

I have been searching trying to figure out an answer. When I use the LUX filter when editing any picture on instagram it throws a bright green tint over the whole picture. The LUX is the little sun looking icon when you are editing and usually it brightens the picture. I use it often and miss it.
I tried re-installing and clearing the cache. Can anyone verify that it is doing the green tint, or is it just a problem with my Att S4?
Screen shot attached:
Also I noticed if you go into camera setting and try to activate "Voice Control" the camera app force closes. Really not a big deal but I like that feature.
Mine too.
Well at least its not just mine. Bummer though, I emailed instagram about it not sure if its on their end or samsungs.
My camera doesn't FC though. It opens the voice settings in the settings app. Try going to Settings-My Device-Voice Control and see if you can turn it on there.
Dleet
Ok so the issue with the LUX feature (the little sun) survived today's update... everyone go here
https://www.facebook.com/help/contact/?id=364531043625021
and report the problem so that it is corrected asap...
the more of us that report it the more likely we will get an update patch...
Go to Advanced Settings and uncheck both boxes. Should be good to go.
Still, they need to fix the real problem.

happens to me, too. even after unchecking the features in Instagram + cleared Cache for Instagram.
I'm on stock i9505.
Problem still persists up to today..
I have an AT&T Galaxy S4 and the Lux option is completely missing from my Instagram app. I sent them two emails with no response.
Is anyone else missing the Lux option?

Nope just for s4 or certain devices...
Both my HTC vivid and Samsung infuse still have the option, both are on latest version...my HTC vivid is on rooted stock 4.0.3, my Infuse is on slimbean 4.2.2 -so I know its not related to android version...it probably checks what device it is through build.prop...maybe if you change your device model through build.prop and clear instagrams data and reboot you may get the option back...maybe

Aaaaand this still hasn't been fixed to this day (on the GS4). Unchecking the advanced imaging processing button helps a little bit but it still jacks up the images with jaggies on diagonal lines etc. And still no lux button. Hello, Instagram?!?!?

Broken slide aside?

Is anyone else's slide aside not working? I still have the apk in my system/app but it has never worked. I have gmd and use a gesture to move between apps but I want to at least try it out. Can anyone provide me with an apk to try to replace mine if it is broken or corrupted? Thanks in advance.

You should find it in Settings, under Device and then Gestures.
if someone could send me a copy of theirs that would be great and ill see if replacing it fixes the problem. i really dont want to reset my phone just to try it out

I will admit this has me scratching my head. It does not show up in the Settings listing (which where it is with Verizon, as I have Verizon as well) but you are seeing it in the System folder. The first thing I would say is try a hard reset to see if this corrects the issue. You will need to re-install all your apps, unless you make a back up first.
---------- Post added at 12:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 PM ----------
By any chance did you Freeze it "not knowing" with Titanium. This could explain your issue??? Maybe.
No I checked to see if I froze it by mistake or disabled it but it isn't. Maybe something else I froze is affecting i?? Like I said I use gmd to switch apps, I just wanted to try it out. Not a big enough deal for me to reset. Thanks for you help though
Sent from my VS980 4G using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Have you messed with settings menu at all like you do when installing split view mod? Mine is frozen and still in gestures menu...
I would suggest reinstalling or flashing stock settings menu.
Before i rooted it used to work, but after i rooted and used gmd gestures it stoped not sure why. But believe me you don't need it i simply froze the app, plus it will hinder my gesture options of using 3 fingers.

Rip,
Did you ever figure out the issue? Its happening to me to. Im on verizon rooted with stock rom and I no longer see it in my settings/gesture menu but I see the app still on my phone. I saw someone in IRC say it was a bug with the app. But was wondering if anyone ever found what the issue is.

No I never did resolve it. Once a decent 4.4 rom came out I just went that way anyways and continue to use game swipe up gestures for home, back, menu, kill app, and to switch between previous and next apps. My nav bar is completely hidden so it maximizes screen space

[WIP 5/3/14] CSC Feature edits for GS5

CSC Features are cool because you can enable little features that are for whatever reason turned off by Samsung. Here are some that I have found across the internet.
A.) PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE MESSING WITH THIS!! Either make a backup in recovery, or make a backup of your feature.xml by copying the original/unedited to your SD Card.
B.) Download a root browser and grant it root permission.
C.) Go to system/csc/feature.xml
D.) Find the lines that you wanna change, and change it to what I have underlined/bolded. OR some are not in there and you can just add those lines right in (lines that are not in that can just be added will be highlighted in blue). Make sure the new lines are between <FeatureSet> </FeatureSet> . Now it's time for the features that can be enabled:
1. Enable call duration in call log: <CscFeature_Contact_DisableCallDuration>false</ (thanks to @eyecon82)
2. Enable camera shutter sound on/off menu: <CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
3. Add an exit menu to the stock web browser: <CscFeature_Web_AddOptionToTerminate>true</CscFeature_Web_AddOptionToTerminate>
4. Enable infinite scrolling in home screen and app drawer: <CscFeature_Launcher_DisablePageRotation>false</CscFeature_Launcher_DisablePageRotation>
5. Enable scheduled message: <CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMessage>true</CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMessage>
<CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMsgBox>true</CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMsgBox>
6. Enable prompt to select recording mode: <CscFeature_Camera_CamcorderEnablePromptPopupToSelectRecMode></CscFeature_Camera_CamcorderEnablePromptPopupToSelectRecMode>
7. Enables Rotation control icon in Gallery: <CscFeature_Gallery_AddAutoRotationIcon>true</CscFeature_Gallery_AddAutoRotationIcon>
8. Stock browser requests Desktop site by default: <CscFeature_Web_EnableDesktopSiteAsDefault>true</CscFeature_Web_EnableDesktopSiteAsDefault>
E.) When done make sure you save the changes, and reboot.
F.) ENJOY!
Gonna be working hard on this tonite peeps to ensure which ones are working and which are not... just gotta get thru stupid work first! -__-
Expect a nice update tonite peeps. PLEASE if you know anything about this stuff, feel free to add on!
Good stuff man! I did the shutter sound and exit on stock browser. I'm not sure if it pertains to what I did or if it would have any effect on it (I doubt), but I lost my ability to press and hold to get punctuation on my Samsung keyboard. Lol

I believe with original Touchwiz home, you have to MOD the TouchwizHome.apk to have infinite scroll through pages, as seen in MOD faster touchwiz launcher thread (see Index for easy link). Works from just apk push and no csc mod.
Also, here are the screenshots I promised. Says "null" for feature but my be able to MOD but wonder what it does...

Don't use any of the apps like GO. They are filled with adware and are subpar apps in the first place.

For a messenger app with emoji I recommend Textra. It might have a couple adds, but pro version is very cheap. For a keyboard app, they all have emoji. I recommend stock or SwiftKey.

Some app was updated with this. I do not have any GO products nor any CM ones. Has anyone figured out what this is? Could it be some Samsung 'improvement' forced on us?

I've been a paid Swype user for years now, haven't found another keyboard that suits me as well, to be honest. I tried SwiftKey, etc. and didn't care for them.
Chrooma keyboard. Dope. Nuff said. Fleksy is cool too once you get used to it and the way you input keys..its quite different. but I like swiping for words sometimes and fleksy doesn't support that. Chrooma has been my favorite since I can't flash AOSP keyboard with number row.

I have solved the problem on my device
Hi
I had the same problem.
If you can have access to a terminal in your device, you can see the running processes with ps command.
I use it to see what processes where running when I saw that screen appear once again, what I could see at the output from the command line was that two of the running process where related to a wallpapers app (KittyPlay wallpapers) and had some estrange references to the following namespaces:
com.jiubang.commerce.service.IntelligentPreloadService
com.jiubang.commerce.chargelock
The first thing that come to my mind was the obvious relation of "chargelock" with the kind of screen lock that was appearing on my device and the fact that a few days ago I have installed f-droid and this application offered to update the KittyPlay application, so I updated thinking that there was no problem with the updated app. After the update I started to see the speedcharge lock screen.
The only way for me to know what was causing the problem was to use the command line and trying to identify the processes involved.
I uninstalled the mentioned application (KittyPlay) and the speedcharge lock screen stopped from appearing.
Hope this can be helpful to solve the problem for you.
I've had the same problem for awhile now. Turns out it was GO Weather. I'd used it for years without any real problems but this is it. I just uninstalled, rebooted and the speedcharge lockscreen is gone.
It is also in GO power master but all I did was go to settings and unclick Boost Charge. There is also an option to unclick launch GO power master when charging.
I found it in zcamera.
ES file Explorer has been bundled with the speed charger addware as well.

i just plugged in my charger right now and noticed this screen... this cant be built in?? anyone else have this??

You have CM Locker installed because I used to. Now you can turn that option off or just uninstall CM Locker.

I have the exact same thing on my LG Stylo. Could it be a coincidence that I have KingRoot installed on that phone?

King root installs "cleaner" software on your device. Just find it in settings/applications and uninstall it. Just don't uninstall super user or King user

By cleaner are you referring to "Purify"?

Samsung App Themes

Anybody else disgusted with the lack of options in the Samsung keyboard and messages apps? Off to the theme store, I guess!
Seriously, look at these background choices! Chat bubble selections seem to have completely vanished on the Note 8! Who was this app designed for?
Look at this keyboard crap! Am I missing something?

Android keyboards are an interesting handicap for me. I have an iPhone 6 for work and NEVER have a problem typing on it. Android, not so much. I'm not sure if it is the way auto-correct works or just something about the layout but I can't seem to type a word on my Note (or the LG V20 before that) without messing up at least one letter. I keep thinking about trying different keyboards but then I get lazy and just deal with it.
Maybe I will give it another go with the 8.
FWIW

Try mood messenger for messages, lots of things to customize, try swype keyboard lots of things to customize too. Since htc hd2 days i never typed, i just swyped on my keyboard, even my 13 year old used swype since i gave her my note 2 5 years ago, now on her note 5. Its just my wife is stubborn to learn how to swype. ?

I hate them as well. Went right to the theme store and downloaded some pretty decent themes.
Sucks that Samsung hasn't figured out hour to them third party apps yet and system stuff a bit better

That's another thing, I'm having trouble finding just the right theme.
EDIT: Can you use a theme already purchase for the Note 7? I've been happy with that one, don't know Samsung's policy on that. It's showing up on the My Themes page in the 7 but not on the 8. Maybe when I do SmartSwitch.

Yes all themes purchased can buy used from the theme store. The theme does need to be updated for a few differences. You'll just get a message some stuff won't work.

I looked on my Note 7 to get the exact name and searched it. I was able to download it without paying again which is good. I just thought all this was seamless and what I bought before would show up once I signed into my Sammy account.

All you need to do it hit the menu in the upper left tap on my page and lastly tap on purchased items.

Substratum has some good theme/overlays that cover most of the Google and Samsung apps.
Here is what I use.

Settings>General Management>Language and Input>On-Screen Keyboard>Samsung Keyboard>Keyboard Size and Layout>Alternative Characters (This will add more symbols to keys.Also to get rid of the ugly yellow high contrast color you can go back to the Samsung Keyboard setting and uncheck the "High Contrast Keyboard".)
Hope that helps.:good:

I went back to Sammy keyboard because of scaling issues on Swype. An update placed the symbols there by default on the Sammy keyboard. As for the theme, my gripe was that there was only that ugly 'high contrast as an option! I'm using a theme from the theme store to covet that up.
