4.4.2 easter egg! - Galaxy Note 3 General

I found a neat, but insanely infrequent easter egg :sly:
When you go to settings> about phone and tap the 4.4.2 box it takes you to a "K" screen. (Not the easter egg)
Tap or long press the "k" and it takes you to the "kit kat" screen (still not the easter egg).
Long press that and it takes you to a screen that is reminiscent of windows phone.(almost there!)
When you press the tiles they fly in and out and change. The images on the tiles represent the OS designations from Donut to Kit Kat. If you play with it long enough though you will find, (here it comes!!!) A Key Lime Pie tile. It is VERY quick, just long enough to notice it, I've tried to get a screenie of it but samsungs slide to capture is just wayyyy too slow. Just thought that might be interesting to some, seeing as everyone was hyped up on this OS being designated Key Lime Pie. Well played, Google. Well played.

I found 4 fast taps on each screen works & long press on KITKAT logo to get final screen.

Sorry Mje, got thumb happy on the thanks button. Also, awesome. I couldn't get one to stick around long enough for the capture.

just curious as to why you use slide to capture screenshot. why not just press the power button + home button combo? much faster

To take a screen shot, go into settings - dislplay and there should be an option saying quick launch, tap that and select screen capture.
Hope i helped.

the quick launch setting was removed in the jelly bean update. so yea use power and volume to take snapshots you need to get the timing right as you need to hit both at the same time not one then the other.

Another PIE option

I'm a fan of lmt but it's a little tough to set up. This is more like Paranoid pie but different. Both apps can function at the same time too.
Copy of Dev's op. The free download apk is in the thread and also a link to the play store to donate to the developer.
****************************
Pie Control
Ohai Pie! 
First things first. This is not Paranoid Android's Pie.
What is this app?
An app like Paranoid Android's Pie feature with a lot of functions and features.
What this isn't?
This is not real Pie feature of PA.
Why is root needed?
Root is needed for some functions. Although some functions can be used without root, I did not allow it as people would ask why the other features do not work.
SCREENIES
FEATURES
1. Can be called over any screen.
2. Fully customisable trigger points and pie.
3. Light weight.
4. Best part? Compatible all the way from Froyo for the first time!
Controls available
* Home
* Back
* Menu
* Volume Up
* Volume Down
* Power Off
* Play Store
* Search
* Pie Settings
* Music Controls

Please tell me if there's any bug so I can fix it.
This is just the intial release. I'll keep adding features accordingly.

Click the link in the op. It goes to the dev's thread. It's not a launcher at all, just sits in the side or bottom and like you see in the pics you can add shortcuts that will be available on any screen your on.

pie v touchwizwhich ma
pie options are pretty sweet but for some reason i just have to have my touchwiz features for s-pen. switching between roms its more of a preference only option between the two. I like the best of both worlds. i switch roms every week lol sometimes more then once a week depending on whats new the devs deliver today lol.
so much and so many good projects to choose from all excellent work

What TV Control Options?

Thinking on getting rid of my Note 3 and getting the M8. I wanted to know if it has the ability to change the source on a TV and navigate through the menus with arrow/enter buttons or something? Also, can you control it from the notification shade? See the attached pictures of what the Note 3 has.
Thanks!

Yes it controls my Samsung plasma and led TV. Input controls all work. No on the notifications screen.
It does have a feature for the notification pull down. IMO, the HTC remote app is far superior to that of Samsung's watch on.

LOL Yes, it does. And a very cool HTC TV app to control it. I find it funny this is now a huge deal...I remember doing this with my OLD Palm Treo 650 back in the day...and then the backlash for a long time on how an IR blaster is useless yada yada and phone companies got rid of them basically and now it has come full circle.
Also funny, off point, with all the tablets/swivel screens/fold back laptops/tablets now are the rage. I remember back in 2003 my company bought a bunch of these Toshiba Protégé laptops, which apparently was a decade ahead of it's time as those things never took off.
This is true , I have both phones gn3 and m8 ,but tv remote on m8 is for more superior to gn3 . Controls my fios Motorola eve,Samsung smart tv and Sony surround sound . Like a champ
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using xda app-developers app
The tv app on the M8 is loads better than watch on, on my S4. Better range as well. It pulls all the channels from direct tv.. kinda like the Netflix layout. The volume rockers control volume on tv and you don't have to move from the attached screenshot to select channels. So, you can go to a particular channel and not have to " go back" to continue browsing...I'm actually using this. Every time I think this device couldn't get better, something pops out lol. Love it.

Camera Screen off?

Anybody know how to take pictures without the phones screen on , maybe by pressing the volume up and down bottoms simultaneously ? I can't seem to find an app that will do it?

It's definitely possible, but I bet will cause HUGE battery drain.

Well Pressy and klick do it so it's definitely doable.
