Just picked up a G2, love it, and the slide aside feature is actually nice. Is there a way to push your apps to the side and then not have to worry about doing the 3 finger gesture to keep them slid aside?

Just jumped from a diamond to a pro which I'm loving except I hate the fact that the pro wakes up if you slide the keyboard Has anyone found a trick to turn this option off?
Help me out here, i've been trying to figure out what you wanna do with your phone, when you slide it out and you don't want it to wake up, but exept using it as a slightly unefficient ninja star, i don't find a way.
I just dont want it to "wake up" when moving around in my pocket
Yes,it's quite annoying for me as well,but I can live with it. In the pocket I don't see any problem,because I need to slide relatively long stroke out(>1cm) to get a reaction,which I cannot accidentialy activate(in comparison with Kaiser it is very good-it's reaction is 3mm). But for me is bad,that I cannot disable autorotation while slideout.
I think I know the answer....but I am hoping someone knows if there is a way to turn this off. It's so big. Hate it. As far as I can tell...its not optional.

Nope, can't turn it off.
not yet, give it time for the framework to be ripped apart. root and s-off have just arrived, patience
Agreed that it's a bit large, but I actually like the feature.
My biggest complaint with the TB (other than TFT vs SAMOLED screen) is the placement/arrangement of the capacitive menu buttons at the bottom of the screen. I don't have tiny hands, but they're not particular big either, so the size of the phone and the placement of the Home button make it just about impossible for me to use the phone with just one hand like I do my 4" phones. My thumb just can't reach the Home button when holding it in my right hand without risking dropping it, so it's difficult to do the long press to get the recent apps screen up. I can comfortably drop the shade and select from there, though, so I like it. Obviously a YMMV thing, and accessing the Home screens still takes two hands for me.
yeah, the recently used apps in the notification bar was poorly thought out. It's redundant as holding the home button does the same thing and isn't needed. If they were going to put anything up there, it should've been the quick toggles like the Galaxy S line of devices.
Yes...I also miss the quick toggle from Cyan....I still find myself pulling down the shade only to realize its not there.
And I miss being able to dismiss notification with a sideways swipe.....A LOT!

Check out Widgetsoid. It does what you want but takes a bit of setup
Couldn't you just use a different launcher like ADW? Or is it built into the framework? If so, what a turn off.
I've not been using the S-Pen the way i thought i would. The reason for it is because i often have problems that my palm accidently touched the notification bar or that my hand triggers a gesture set in GMD Gesturecontrol.
So what i'm looking for is a way for the device to register if the s-pen is near the screen and then deactivate gestures or even go full screen so i can't hit the notificationbar.
Has anyone found a App that can do something like that.
I know there are Apps that give a trigger for when the s-pen is detached, but i'm often holding the pen and still use my fingers for pressing buttons, so i'm not looking for that.

i thought that the Note 10.1 itself disable finger touchs when the s-pen is near the screen, isn't it @@
I thought so too, however, when holding the pen near the screen gestures still work.
Guys I'm absolutely in love with the functionality of the iPhone X's home button. If there's a developer out here with a kind soul can you please make an app/mod that gives the S8 that exact functionality? A thin bar that you grab and pull up to go home, slide up and hold for a second for multitasking, and swipe back on it to go back. It's genius and a much better implementation when compared to Android's virtual buttons.

Swipe up from bottom gesture was awesome on my Blackberry Z10. But apparently it was confusing to the average moron consumer bcuz they weren't used to not having a home button of some sort.

That's the beauty of Apple's implementation tho. There's a super thin bar that you have to slide up, which I think is more intuitive. You could use All In One Gestures to get the slide up gesture but it accidentally enables all the time.

Get an iPhone X!!! LOL Kidding!!!
Might want to look for Meizu mods, that's where the nice gestures come from
I use Edge Gestures app (with immersive mode of the nav bar). It knows this features, but only on the side edges. I have tried to persuade the developer to the bottom edge, without success up to now. This app has little battery drain and memory usage, and ask only necessary permissions. I love it, prefer to All In One Gestures.
My settings:
Left Edge
Swipe up- Home button
Swipe Down - Google app
Tap - Recent apps
Hold - Scroll to the top
Double tap - VLC
Left - Settings
Right Edge
Swipe up- FB LIte
Swipe Down - Browser
Tap - back
Hold - Gmail
Right - File manager
Double tap - Drive
Very fast and usable.
Since I got rid of the Nav Bar - it was annoying - I use both edges for back (swipe up), home (swipe down), and recents (double tap) with Edge Gestures, and Wave Launcher (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wavelauncher&hl=en) from the bottom to access apps and such. It's very responsive and amazingly customizable. You can change the icons and make it look like Mac OS toolbar (Please don't).

Just use this app called GMD gesture control lite offered by good mood droid developers from play store, here's the link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.goodmooddroid.gesturecontrol
Work flawless for me on my s7edge powered by bat-man rom with low battery consumption , you can make swipe gesture started from any edge of your screen, even from the top or bottom of the screen, you also can create your own gesture. If the app didn't detect the edge part of your screen, just calibrate your display from the setting inside that apps, before it didn't work also for me, after calibrate it will works. But, unfortunately you have to buy the full version if you want to get full features, there is also the free version of this app if you wanna to try first. Only this app I got the gesture function near to the iphone x gesture features
use at your own risk.
Press thank's if it helps.
Hello everyone,
I am coming from the Oneplus T7 Pro to the Note now because the other device had an issue. But what I am trying to figure out is the swipe back and forth when on webpages and apps. On the OnePlus it worked great as an out of box option. I would just swipe and it worked. But this note 10 does not do this I have to use the buttons at the bottom. Is there anyway to make it work like the Oneplus or am I SOL.
I do use Nova for my UI since I cant stand Samsungs.
Thanks for any help guys.
Idk how gestures work on OnePlus, but I swipe from the right edge of the screen to the left to go back, swipe up from the bottom right edge of the screen to see recent apps, and swipe up from the middle or left edge of the screen to go home. I use Nova as well. The One Hand Operation+ app (in Samsung Galaxy store) enables swipe left to go back. You can customize swipes a variety of ways, including swipe right from the far left side of screen. But I am right handed, so that gesture is pretty useless for me.
Only works with OneUi

Best app
Works for Samsung exclusively

This might be the single greatest nav gestures solution ever, thanks for the info! I'm on Nova and have bottom nav gestures but now with Goodlock and One Hand Op app I have right side screen gestures as well. Best of both worlds!:laugh:
