One thing I miss from Note 2 is the pop up browser. I don't know why Samsung took it out of Note 3. Even though pen window browser is useful, pop up is just quicker and instantly open any links in small window. So here's the apk that I found from Note 3 International thread and sharing back here. Works perfect on my note 3. Install just like any other apk. No root needed.
Only problem is don't maximize the pop up window, it will crash since the app is not linked with stock browser on Note 3 and doesn't know where to open.

Thank you! I really missed this from my OG Note!
First...Thank you mutantblack for this apk. I never had this on my Note GT-N7000.
It is working on my N3 as long as I don't touch the arrow in the upper left corner. I assume that is the full screen button you said to avoid!
Is this only available on the home screen? If not, how do you bring it up elsewhere? Thanks for any help.

Click any link you wanna open, as long as you don't set any default browser, it will ask you which browser you wanna use to open the link. Choose the pop up and you are good to go.

You can resize the window any way you want. Can choose mobile or desktop versions of websites. Can open more then one window. You can even full screen the window ontop of anything your doing. Heck its free give it a try.

I found that if you go into Settings > Device > Open Multi Window > check "Automatically Open" works similar to the pop-up browser... only a few taps faster.
I think this is the replacement for the pop-up browser... now when you click on a link from an email or something... it will pop open a multi-window instead of a box. That is what I have been using that seems to replace the box pretty well.... because I know I didnt want everything to open in the box... so I would always have to leave the prompt to ask each time... this method seems to save a couple taps.
Thank you!

OMG this is amazing. U just made me love my Note 3 even more! I loved the pop-up browser but this does save a fair few taps. This integrates well into your everyday use-flow maximising the multi window capabilities better. I honestly think they should have had this option turned on by default!:good:

**This post is mostly for Noobs** Thought I would post as it is very useful to know.
Here is how to change the lcd density on the charge manually.
**YOU MUST BE ROOTED**
1. Using root explorer go to
System>build.Prop
2. Make sure read/write capabilities are set and long press on build.Prop
3. Choose edit in text editor and the file will open
4. Go halfway down until you see lcd density =240
5. Change the density to a lower number such as 200. This will allow for a much higher resolution.
6. Save and exit
7. Reboot
***warning! If you set the density too low your phone won't run the rom correctly. Not advised under 160
Beautiful. My screen feels huge now, I went with 190 and it seems to be good, nice and small for my good eyesight. I just needed to resize my keyboard height and I was good to go.

You have to be using Root Explorer from the market, then at the top there are buttons that say mount r/w or mount r/o, just press mount r/w and then you can edit the text.
You can use Es file explorer, it has root capabilities and is free.

via the market, send the dev for that keyboard a message saying that you would like to have that keyboard accept any lcd density and they should do it. I have done this for every app of mine and they have changed it. 95% of the apps should already have this built in. Some devs only put 200-240

Here is what my dialer looks like after adjusting the LCD density. It doesn't affect the phone.apk's ability to make phone calls... its just a little smaller. Not sure if samsung will respond to mere mortals like us to adjust their code to accept multiple densities.... lol

Don't forget to hit the thanks button... That is the kinda stuff I get motivated about. lol
After flashing the brilliant MIUI rom, i decided to check out the stock launcher. It is one of the smoothest launchers i've used on my infuse other than Launcher Pro, however i was disappointed to be confronted with a I-Phone like home screen experience where all the apps were hanging around willy nilly! Hence i found a simple solution to the problem and it is only 2 steps .
Instructions:
1.Put all of your apps into a single folder except for the ones that you plan to keep on your home screens.
2.Download Alt Drawer and put it in your dock. This will now be your app drawer!
There you go its as simple as that! The experience is almost identical to other launchers.
However to add an app from the app-drawer, u must close the app drawer and grab it out of your folder where you stock-piled all the other apps.
Hope this helps someone...first thread on XDA hope i dont get yelled at
Here is an implementation of what i'm talking about:
My home screen with alt-drawer being the right most app on my drawer
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And on this screen you can see alt-drawer when opened up.
Also i forgot to mention earlier, alt-drawer is very very customizble.
You can change lots of settings
(i.e Background transparency, icon size, font size, font color, side-side scrolling/vertical scrolling, hide/show notification, orientation etc)

This a handy way to get an app drawer. Ive been running MIUI on my Sony X10 for quite a while now. I typically had put all the apps in the tools folder, but the AltDrawer0.7.1 apk works great.
Does the app have a setting so it could scroll side to side like in Touchwiz?

YES
take a look at the screenshot those are all the options. The style option for me is grid...there is another option called page-page which is horizontal. just get app lol its free anyway
Looks like a nice addition. I was just throwing all my apps in one folder and sticking it on the dock. Works basically the same way, but not as customizable.
Nice, thank you I may just try Miui now because of it my friend lol.
thanks for this man. really helpful. I saw another mod, but not as flexible as this. I hope they implement that app drawer concept that's getting big cred on the miui.us site, but this will due until then if that ever gets implemented

I notice that sometimes when I open up the App Drawer, a blank screen comes up before the list of programs appear. It can be up to 6-7 secs.
I tried the suggestion of using Titanium to make AppDrawer a system app. Tried to find the app and move it to the other location, but couldn't find it. Will try again.
Any other suggestions?

Make sure it's on internal memory not sd card. Use Root Explorer and move from
/data/apps to /system/apps.
Works fine after that.

Sorry, android only allows system apps to change location settings.
GPS can be toggled in this app due to an exploit in the AOSP power-toggle-widget.
But for example on Samsung phones, this is not possible (samsung changed the widget settings).
I would if I could. Long click GPS icon will bring you to the location settings page, wich is still faster then browsing to it with the normal settings app.

Android restricts the toggling to system only. I'm not completely sure though, so I'll do some googling again.

In the new version is written, that the trial version is over. But there was never written that this is an trial version. There are only differences between the functions in the beta and the pro.

I got a suggestion, tell me if you like it (this will gold for all people):
-User will get a 4 day trial of all functions
-After 4 days, you won't be able to use Configure anymore, and the data already configured will be reset
-When you install the PRO version , everything will come back.
Deal or no deal?
Tell me if you have a suggestion too.

Sure it does. It's not a statusbar replacement, it just has a UI like it.
About swiping it up: I'm working on this, but bugfixes are more important in my opinion.
You can press the statusbar close shade anyway to close it, it'll do the same as the back button.

The MW Manager requires the Xposed framework, but I don't believe Pen Window does.
The MW Manager and Pen Window Mod are independent of each other.

What doesn't work? After I enabled it in Xposed, I just opened the MW Manager app and it worked.
You might have to contact the developer for support.

I'm in the same boat as you... The Pen app worked for me, but not the Multi Window Manager; and I made sure it was enabled and rebooted multiple times, but still no change. In fact, I found out the Wanam Xposed seems to do the same thing the S Pen App Mgr does so I removed that one, but the MWM app doesn't seem to save my changes. And this is the app I prefer to use for multi-tasking really...
I'm rooted with Root de la Vega and installed MWM via Google Play, and it does ask for root rights when it wants to reboot, but no change on my MW side panel after that... I guess I'll try installing via Xposed Framework next..
RakeIn
When I take my s pen out and air command comes up I still get the pen window option but nothing happens when I click on pen window. I've been reading up on this and I believe I deleted some bloat that I still need. Does anyone have the RakeIn APK?
nice tread

same here. S pen apps work but the apps dont show up in the multi window after i selected them.
Anyone figure out what's not playing nice with the multiwindow manager not to work properly?

Hey yes ..... The apps you select in the mw manager you have to manually fill in the bar.... The app just makes them compatible

Hi everyone!
I made a replica of the watch from the pause menu in GoldenEye 64 for my SmartWatch using an app from the Play Store and 3 simple .png files.
Thought I would share in case I wasn't the only person who thought it was kinda cool haha!
The app you need is this... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kaybit.smartwatch.customwatch&hl=en_GB
Then download the attached .rar file, unpack and copy to somewhere on your phone. I copied them all over in a folder so that once it was all set up, I could add a .nomedia file to the folder so the files wouldn't show in the Album.

[Tutorial]
Im sure you can all work it out, it's quite simple but just in case you need a little guidance here it is
Install the Custom SmartWatch app.
Once installed open its settings from your SmartWatch app list.
Tap on "SmartWatch 2 Settings".
Tick "Custom Ananlog Clock"
Tap "Create Custom Analog Clock"
Tap "Backgroundimage", search for the GoldenEye Background.png file and open it.
Tap "Hourhandimage", search for the GoldenEye Hour Hand.png file and open it.
Tap "Minutehandimage", search for the GoldenEye Minute Hand.png and open it.
That's it, however I also opened the "Battery Settings" and ticked "Activate Low Power Mode" so that the screen dims to grey scale to save power. You can have the watch display in colour all the time but the battery will last less than a day.
This app will automatically open itself on the watch if left idle so it replaces the stock clock app, and you'll still receive your notifications. Just tapping the screen will bring back the colour and light, pressing the home button will exit out to use other apps. You'll have to get used to doing that instead of pressing the power button like you would with the stock clock app because this is technically a running app and pressing the power button on the watch will close it and bring back the stock clock.
Enjoy!
[UPDATE] After using my GoldenEye design for a few days I noticed that when you tap the screen to make it light up again to read it and show the colour of the background, it took quite a few seconds. After contacting the developer of the Custom SmartWatch app and talking to him over the last couple of days, he has been amazing and updated the app to better support this kind of design.
The app now has a few more options under "Battery Settings" and if you enable "Monochrome Mode" and the "Faster Screen On" settings, the clock will still dim to grey scale saving battery, keep the background visible but will light up a lot quicker after tapping the screen. Feels far more responsive!
Credit to Kaybit for his awesome app!
Nicely done
I wasn't aware of the app before, I'll give it a try and use your base as a template.

Thanks, glad you like it .
Yeah it's a pretty cool app, I had it with my SmartWatch 1 but it was never as customisable as this. I noticed that it had been given an update and tried out the new options and ended up with this. To be honest if you have even just a little Photoshop knowledge the possibilities are endless!
Nice one keyz86 - thanks for the files!

Going to take a look at this later. Looks really good. Thanks for sharing both the app and your own design.

This is pretty cool man! Nice to see this sort of thing going on over here - we can't let those Pebblers have all the fun now can we?! It's just a shame that notifications don't appear as normal using a custom watch face but obviously, the finger is aimed at Sony for that.
Well done bud, this is definitely something I will be showing my friends ha ha

Thank you! Glad to see this post wasn't the waste of time I thought it might be haha, really wasn't sure if anyone would be interested!
Yeah shame about the notifications being different but it doesn't bother me really, they still show up and tapping on them brings them up in full
Man,that's pretty kewl ......I've got some ideas for some nice faces
Will post them here when I get them together

If you need an idea... How about a Star Trek LCARS style watch face!
This is AWESOME! Is it possible to use a digital clock display instead?
I installed it, it works when I tap the screen, then it goes to low-power mode for half a second, then blank screen. What can I set so it stays in low-power mode?

Maybe you need to uncheck Monochrome Mode in Battery Settings?
