[Q] Disabling the Multi-Window button GN10.1 - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've tried searching for this but only found stuff in the SGN2 forums.
Is there anyway to disable/move the Multi-Window button? This button is making some of my applications considerably more difficult to use since it blocks functionality partially in some apps.

Yeah hold done back button to disable.. also you can just drag and drop the icon.. so you can have it where you like it!!

Or flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36852275
Doesn't get in the way of any apps Ive tried

I've just tried this. The back button method doesn't work and the button is not draggable. I had been trying to avoid flashing, but looks like I might have to.

Is there really no way? That multi windows button is pretty annoying, and I never use multiwindows. That zip merely makes it translucent but I guess it will have to do. =/

If you have a custom recovery installed then you can follow JamMasterClay's instructions in this thread.
However, the icon replacements he offered were not quite what I wanted since I wanted to remove the button completely. So, I just downloaded one of the button mods that he has available and extracted the zip, replaced the two png files with the two originally posted by heavylildude in this thread and created a new zip archive. Then used the newly created archive as per JamMasterClay's instructions. The floating cascade window is now gone from my apps (you do lose the functionality, but it's worth the trade off in my opinion, but you probably do want to back up the undo zip in case you ever want it back).
There may be an easier way to do this, but I wasn't sure if you could just copy the two png files directly into the apk.

[MORPH] Beam Me Up! download/upload icons

This is a Morph file for CM 5.0.6.
The icon is a guy being sucked up into a UFO when a file is being downloaded or uploaded.
Downloads = Green beam
Uploads = Red beam

Do you have any screenshots available?
Not currently, I have to reinstall the SDK on my comp and I have been too lazy to do it. I will try to get some up...
Really neat and original. Will try these out in a bit.
You have a bunch of additional files in the morph. Aren't only the 12 .pngs needed?
Make sure you add it to the Morphs thread.
edit: trying it down, downloading earth-live wallpaper (its big) to see it

Think he's referring to the layout and xml folders (that have files in them) that probably don't need to be included.

Ahh... thanks for pointing that out. I will try to figure out what is necessary (still learning) and take out what I don't need. Thanks again.
One more thing, in both upload/download cases the stick person is seen moving up to the ship.
I renamed the 6 download images so that the guy moves downward for downloads and upward for uploads. (attached for convenience)

Extended Power Control Widget?

Does anyone know where to get the extended power control widget I've seen in a few people's screen shot?
It has seven toggles instead of 5 I think. I saw one in the market but it's not the same as the one I'm looking for.
bump........
U mean switch pro ?

Nice, thanks. Do you know if there are any transparent or cyan colored versions out there?
EDIT: Actually the one I want is on post 2 of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=692609
... ideally with cyan colored dots.
It already comes with 3 versions, semi-transparent/completely transparente/original. U can always theme it ur self Unzip, change images and resign. Or if u got windows u can use this apktool script i made today...makes modifying apk's easier.
Here
Its a batch file so windows only.
http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.extendedcontrols
Here is link for extended controls
Thanks guys. I think I like the no background version of Switch Pro. I have to learn how to modify these things so I can get cyan dots instead of green dots.
Its a png inside the apk. Use the tool to extract it. Then inside the out folder find the png, it'll b a green dot, modify it then select options 2,3...

i signed up for the appbrain website and chose extended controls. when i go to my phones app and i sync extended controls shows up but when i press "install" it takes me to the market and cant find the app. what am i doing wrong? thanks for any help
It means the application isn't available in your country's market.
Use MarketAccess to make the market believe you're from another country, eg the US
Extended Control is a protected app and won't show up on Froyo, well for some people running Froyo I suppose. You'll need to do this [MOD] Fix Protected Apps not Showing on FroYo
I had the same problem with the same app today. I did the push and was able to buy the app soon after.

[REQUEST] Fix Voice keyboard!

Okay.

You see how the background is only as far as the keys are and you get the white (or whatever color the bg is of the app your on) sidebar and bottom stripe?
You can't see that on the original LatinIME.apk.
See, this is the original.
Its that dark gray background on the LatinIME.apk that I want fixed on the Voice Keyboard.
Come on, is no one gonna help me? I was told it was easy! I have no idea how to fix it, but I was hoping someone would!
I'm playing around with the APK a bit, its called "VoiceSearchWithKeyboard.apk", formery "VoiceSearch.apk" and "LatinIME.apk". I was hoping to find a transparent "Such_and_such_Image.png" in the new one, and the same image, only not transparent, in the old one. So far, I'm not seeing it. Perhaps its something deeper, something in the XMLs?
I can see you don't like the way it is now, but I think most people do, and I believe its working as intended.
Perhaps someone more experienced can help shed some light?
***Attached are the files in question***
In this post Konipub has a flashable zip for his rom with voice keyboard that doesn't have transparent background(atleast not in HIS pictures)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6182240&postcount=2
So I removed all the key layout files from my phone because some of them had different names and I know the zip wouldn't over ride them; and I flashed it. It looks just like the one from darches google ****s. I don't know if konipubs picture is inaccurate, or perhaps the background file is actually a file from the framework-res? I almost feel like it must be. Will do some heavy digging tonight!
: Disregard:
Its probably in an .xml within the layout folder. That keyboard bugs me when its like that as well...I'd dig through the .xml's, but ive been too tired to even focus on it...Try the Droid X keyboard, its nicer.

Thanks. I actually do have Froyo with CM6 Test Build 0 right now, but I think the VoiceSearchWithKeyboard.apk was removed.

I take it back, I think the problem is because the. .apk is for high resolution phones. I'm willing to bet there s an hdpi folder instead of mdpi. Yup, I was right this is for high Res phones. Its an easy fix.

If it's an easy fix, do you think you can do this? Please say yes.
And I almost gave up all hope.

Sorry guys, I should have been more clear. All this consists of is icons and a wallpaper. To achieve the "look" you need a few simple non-root programs such as better cut and folder organizer to change the icons. I also used adw launcher to get the iPhone styled app drawer and the dock you see in the screenshot.
Absolutely no root required!
I use ADW Launcher aslo but I cannot figure out for the life of me how you got 4 icons on the bottom like that. I mean the quick launch icons at the bottom.
you need to disable the page dots, then you are able to select the choice to add 2 more buttons in the place of the dots.
Excellent. I have it now...one more question...how do I replace the dialer? I have all the other icons replaced but when I go to create a new shortcut I do not see dialer as an app?

on the Incredible you will have to select new "Activity" in BetterCut and it is listed as Phone in there.
Excellen thanks. I found it under activities and it was called phone.
Cool work. Looks good...it was only a matter of time until someone wanted their incredible to look like an iPhone. Lol oh the irony! Because when you hold it...it gets reception
I did it just for fun... i switch between ADW.Launcher (my iPhone theme) and LauncherPro (My Android theme) just to switch it up. To be honest, when using the Android iPhone theme I always feel like that is how the iPhone OS should have been!
hey rocket man! do you have a page with all your icons?
all of the ones i ported are in the zip file. i'm thinking about making a "goodies" page on Grafixpressions.com where all of our fun stuff will be posted, but it may take me some time to set that up!

Great job, these icons look cool. Not trying to be picky, but you spelled "dialer" wrong (dailer).
ouch thanks.
I'm still new to customizing and such, how do I put these icons on my phone?

If your running a rooted phone with a custom ROM, you should be able to hold down the icon until a little edit icon appears, and you can select its icon from there. Be sure to place your icons folder on the root of your SD card.
Yes my phone is rooted and I see the Edit option at the bottom when I click and hold an icon but the gear symbol next to the word Edit is greyed out and won't allow me to drag the icon to it.

I have to use a launcher for that. Go launcher Ex is amazing and free.
I use adw launcher and its awesome as well. Like it better than the rest, but its whatever works best for you.
