I love using the Create Pad for note taking while reading (i.e. using Note Saver), but enabling note taking automatically opens the small live preview window in the bottom right of the screen.
Is there any way to close, resize or reposition this preview window without stopping note-taking mode?
The window is not too bad in landscape, but in portrait mode it often covers the content I'm trying to take notes of!
I am sure this still bugs most of us with the Android version. I decided to root and found if you disable com.hanvon.portableink (Floating Windows) that you can toggle all you want. Nothing happens apart from it toggles mode. If anyone knows of a non root way of disabling this it could be handy,

I watched the video of the 2.2 software for the galaxy s and noticed they had an "orientation lock" button in the quick launch buttons at the top of the notification bar. I absolutely hate the automatically switching orientation setting but there is definatly times i need to use the phone in landscape and its a pain to switch it. I am wondering if this is something that is possible to add to our current software? i searched but couldnt find anything for this for the vibrant.
anyone have any ideas how to implement this? or is it something that well just have to wait and see if its an option when we get 2.2.
thanks

Would be nice, and i like how the Euro is Vibrate rather than Silent. I could do away with the Bluetooth for a auto lock. Wish Cyanogne would pick that up.
Yeah, the rotation of Android pales compared to the iphone. It's always been disappointing to me.
Have you tried Curvefish's rotation widget in the market? It's free and a very nice looking 1x1 toggle switch.
Use switch pro widget.
The ability of accessing it in the notifications bar is what I want.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Download Quick Settings in the market. Basically it gives u the option to keep it in the notification bar and access the orientation change (and ever single other setting) with a swipe and 2 clicks.
I promise u will not find a more convenient solution. The app is definitely Top 10 in the entire market.
I've been searching for an answer to this, but haven't found anything. Maybe I've missed something?
If I recall correctly, in 4.1 I was able to open the notifications by just tapping the notification area. It was very easy.
With the 4.2 phablet UI, not only are my notifications in the farther corner from my thumb, but I have to do a full swiping motion to open them. Half the time I don't go far enough, and it bounces shut again!
Is there any mod or app to allow opening the notifications with just a tap? Or maybe to change how far I have to drag for it to decide to stay open.
NOTE: I don't mean an app that adds a home-screen shortcut or widget. A)I don't need another icon on my home-screen, and B)I want to be able to do this from inside any app.
Thanks.
Hi guys,
I know there is a way to disable the package "Floating Window" but this also disable the note feature while you are using another app.
Is there a way to use the Note-Feature while the preview is in background? i have to take much notes while I am in different apps like Skype and the preview is blocking content.
If not it seems the yoga is nice to have but not really usefull cause I already need a piece of paper to take the notes.
Best wishes
The best I found is to use a package disabler to toggle the floating window. It takes a bit of setting up, but I have an icon on my home screen which lets me turn it on and off at will. It is such a silly thing, but really ruins the usability of the tablet.
Hello,
Since PIE update I have an annoying problem.
2 side bars similar to edge sidebar (when its closed) appears on my screen (see screenshots).
Theese two bars don't have any actions and can't be swiped., but make little vibrate on swipe.
The main problem is the right sidebar is too close of the send button (messages/whatsapp & messenger) and make half of it don't react (and send message on click).
Here is my observations :
- it's shown over all elements (desktop, app list, all applications)
- it's not visible on lock screen
- it don't show up in Android safe mode
I've dig for hours, and try several methods without success :
- reboot (look stupid, but must be said )
- disable the real Edge sidebar
- disable Samsung Pay
- remove autorisations for ALL apps to overlay on other apps (screenshot)
- change default keyboard (with swiftkey & Gboard)
I've turn my display to night theme to highlight these sidebar, but they're still there in day mode.
I'm now out of idea... the fact it don't show up in safe mode would orient me to app issue. But due to overlay settings no apps are supposed to being able to do this (except secure folders that can't be disabled)... I have many apps it would be painful to remove /reinstall them...
Did anyone already faces similar issue?
Any idea on how to fix it, or where to dig for?
Thanks a lot in advance for your feedbacks, any help will be highly appreciated

I have the very same problem. By using instragram, I have noticed that I cannot click the like button when the like button is near the white bar. So I am thinking that the white bar shows where the edge of the display is disabled to block "unwanted" touch. I also find it very annoying. Help?
Resolved. Before the Pie update, I have installed here from XDA a package of various apps ported from Pie I think. I had to uninstall the one called something like "one hand +". Once uninstalled, the two bars got removed.
Ohhhh Thanks for your fix !!!!
I've dig around Good lock features yesterday, but forget this one.
Problem solved!

Its real really full screen as far as I can tell
The very top of my screen is the Twitter bar. The punch hole is centered on that but obviously the screen cap won't capture it so I drew it.

You could also use Monument Browser which has had the same feature for a while, has a desktop application for windows and has a lot of features that are difficult to find. However it's a nice step for the Samsung Browser
most of the browser will make a black broder where the punchole/notch ist, so this is nice
This is an irregular practice, yet it makes the telephone simpler to deal with, while keeping that Infinity show looking sharp.

Instructions to compel applications into full screen
Go to Settings.
Select Display.
Tap on Full screen applications.
Switch on/off to choose which applications get the chance to go full screen.

This doesn't work with all apps. If the app has the capability the OS won't Force the status bar, otherwise the apps will continue to performance like they have before. Most apps don't support a full immersive mode because in previous versions of Android it was built into the OS and apps didn't have to support it.
Edit: I should rephrase that because I'm not taking into account the knotch area that didn't exist when immersive mode hit android. It seems immersive mode ignores that.

This is what i mean... The statusbar becomes a black border and the screeb behaves like before so no more screen area to use
Samsung browser beta just became my default browser again. Wish edge would implement this. I was pissed when they removed it so now I'm a happy camper that they've returned the feature.
