What is the name of the memo pad app that comes pre-installed on the Exhibit II? I installed a custom rom and thankfully all those useless T-mobile apps weren't included, but the one that I actually used and loved isn't there. I remember the app icon having a T on it. And I can't find it anywhere in the app store.
I've tried other memo apps but I either don't like them or they have ads. That pre-installed one was just excellent.
Any help?
Thanks.
By the way, if I can't get this particular memo app back anyone have any recommendations for one that's similar? One that's tiny(in file size) and just plain simple. I don't need any kind of syncing or any other fancy features. Just want to open the app, jot down a note or two and be done with it. With no ads of course.
EDIT: Could have sworn I posted this in the Exhibit forum... So if mods want to move it there then that's cool.
Hi All,
Have Googled, Binged and looked thoroughly through XDA and have not found an answer, perhaps because it's such a piddling issue, but it's annoying me.
I have a stock Verizon Galaxy S III (SCH-I535) running Android 4.1.2 with Kernel 3.0.31-861013. I don't like the stock app that pops up when I set it in the desktop dock (Model EDD-D200BE). Specifically, I don't like the background it uses or the screensaver it goes to when it times out. (piddling, right?)
Q1. Is there a way to change that background and screensaver to use a live wallpaper?
Q2. If not, is there a suggested/preferred app that will replace the stock app that will allow me to change the backgrounds/screensavers?
I'm not talking about themes for the S III. I've tried those and they change everything PAST the dock screen, but the dock screen and screensaver remain the same. So either those apps don't change the default app, or I'm using the wrong theme(s) app, or I am missing something very basic (apologies if there are potholes in my "information highway"). I am also not talking about changing the apps in the app tray.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
So I did some rummaging through the forums and what I found was a small app (xperia thing), that could launch other apps directly. I was actually looking for something like maybe I could swipe from any edge of the screen (kinda like Samsung s6/7 Edge phones) and a small window thingy would come out with a scroll-able list of all my installed apps so that i could launch the app from whatever screen I was on. Would be really glad if somebody could make such an app/ notify me if something similar already exists.
Also, is it possible to have a Small App that could [turn into]/[launch any app within itself as] a small app?
Sorry for being a noob.
thanks.
Hello. I got the Gear S3 Frontier for Christmas from my girlfriend. She got it off eBay, and I believe it's either an Asian or a European model since it came with the European power plug, and instructions and box is written in either Chinese or Japanese. No big deal. Only thing that's bugging me is when I ask S-voice for information like weather, it comes in Celcius, and can't figure out how to change it, even though AccuWeather is in Farenheight. Any way to change this, or convert the software and firmware to US? Thanks
Have you tried changing the setting in the Gear app?
Launch the weather app (not the widget) and tap on the 3 dots on the right. This will bring up unit selection.
The weather app is fine..For some reason svoice gives it to me in celcius..I'll just open the app instead for now.
Patched in OneUI 4 beta 2, working on a fix...
A proof of concept for custom widgets and apps on the cover screen. A GeckoView-based browser for the cover screen.
What works
- Custom widget
- Browsing the web
What doesn't
- On-screen keyboard
- Session saving
Important notes:
- No root required, but Samsung Health must be uninstalled to use this
Download it here: https://github.com/CarudiBu/SubUI-browser/releases/
Let me know if you encounter any bugs or have any ideas for more cover screen widgets / apps.
Teying to download but its a zip file. Tried to change ext to apk but issue with parsing

Care to share how you get widgets to run on the cover screen? I found nothing in the Samsung documentation. Thanks!
I am also digging through your git repo
Why did you have to remove Samsung Health to make this work?

Proof of concept of custom widgets and apps running on the Z Flip3 cover screen. Adds a widget to Z Flip3 cover screen that lets you launch a web browser-like app on the cover. - SubUI-browser/app/...

The first thing you may have noticed in digging through git is that the app spoofs that package to get it to work as an official widget.
Yes, I did. I cannot use that. Maybe they will provide an official sdk soon. Thanks!

Widgets running on the cover screen is only possible if the app pretends to be Samsung Health. The criteria for the Samsung settings app to show an app in the widget list is for the app to have a widget with a category of '2048' and the app to be a system app or have the Samsung Health package name.
Full apps can run on the cover screen without anything like this though. The second screen is seen as a second display in Android. The reason this app requires a custom widget to launch the custom app is because the second display is only activated when the phone is closed, so something on the cover screen must launch the app for it to appear on the screen - I use the widget for that.
There is another method, however. It's not shown in this app because I only found it a few days ago, but it's the intended way to show things on the cover screen and is the same way the camera preview works. There's an example of it here: https://github.com/CarudiBu/SubUI-mirror. Using Android's presentation mode, the display is woken up even when the phone is open and an app running on the main screen can show something on the cover. If an app starts showing something on the cover screen with presentation mode and the phone is closed, what it was showing remains on the screen.
Thanks for that!

Sounds like it could be used similar to the ROG Phone 5 Ultimate rear display with some sort of management app.
I also started messing around with the outer screen and noticed you could launch other apps that would then display inside it from the spoofed Samsung Health widget.
I started putting together a launcher to access all my apps without opening the screen. The only caveat seems to be that the keyboard will not display.
Always impressed how quickly, "man I wish my phone did this" goes to "ayyyy" with people like you. For anyone interested, emulators with a bt controller makes for a great stealth gaming device. Is there anyway you can flip the outer screen so it's either upside down or portrait? Maybe even with accelerometer support? Also would it ever possibly work while keeping Samsung health installed? Thanks for the great app, gave this phone the best missing feature.
Please release the app on Samsung Galaxy Store
It would be much better.

You have to replace Samsung Health to do what could loosely be considered an exploit. That wouldn't go over well.
Sorry and thank you in advance. I can't seem to change widget to my own personal widget via settings cover screen widget. I unistalled Samsung health and downloaded correct file.. c I uld u tell me what I'm missing?
I've successfully installed it and it works perfectly. But how can I change the WebPage? At the moment I just can read reddit.
As for widget ideas: did anyone make a voice recorder already? I'm a journalist, so recording interviews without needing to open the phone would be nice. Also, I think the cover display would be just great for the needed interface (start/pause/stop recording buttons, one to play the recording, save/delete recording buttons, and visual audio waves).
