Hey,
I thought about how sweet would it be if there was an app that can use the handwriting great ability using the s pen on the note 3 and combine it with another app that allow to use the s note(or any other similar app) as a wallpaper. this will allow me to use the wallpaper as a blackboard in a single press and see the changes automaticaly on the screen.
I searched a lot on every forum that i know if anyone found a solution for this and coudnt see any.
obviosly i can use the s note and then screencapture - set it as a wallpaper. After giving it a shot i found its uncomfortable and i will gave up on that idea as im looking for something more friendly without all that mess.
Any suggestions?

I have now. Allthough its pretty good it doesn't seem to help my issue as i need it to change it on the wallpaper.
I mean that if it would just auto save the screen captured to be the wallpaper it would be IT.
But it doesn't and so i'm left witht he same ritual of set to wallpaper.
Thanks though.
Any other suggstions?
Just got a Mate 9 regular on the weekend, tried to attach an image and there is no option to do so. I have tried both via the app and by sharing the photo. There just simply isn't an option to attach the image. I have searched every setting and as many websites as I can. Anyone have any ideas? Ty in advance.
Why you are not seeing the attachment icon next to where you write the text?
Yes correct.

It's fine here.
Maybe you are using a customized theme?
How do you check about custom themes?
goo.gl/photos/TqJaMLMkzMgfQ58Z9
Can't put a link to photos in.
Maybe you need to setup APN settings for mms to work?
I don't use the stock messaging app, so can't really help there, but as far as using the "share" option, perhaps it's related to this bug. Some of us can't attach an image directly from the gallery to 3rd party text apps from the share option UNLESS more than one photo is selected.
it is working fine on my end with stock messaging app and tmobile sim card
Hi
Seems like Google Photo's is hard coded to be the default picture viewer.
If you install something else you are not prompted to choose the new default as you would expect.
Disabling google photo's and trying to force new default doesn't work either.
Perhaps with future ROM?
Anything anyone achieved without root etc. till now? Thanks.
Reorienting back and recent keys seems like a no go either, what do people do to get round that?
Thanks for any tips already.

try from within the camera - take pic - review it - only allowed Google Photo's, for me at least..?

Tryna different camera. Counterintuitive? Maybe. Probably. Definitely. But you will get the option that you want.
But this has ALWAYS been the case with HTC. I have installed the HTC camera app on other phones, and it was imperative to have the HTC Gallery app to be able to review the photos after they are taken. I know that it's a different gallery app that we are taking about, but I think have the Camera App is the real issue here. The app defines the default photos app.
I may be wrong, but that's something that I discovered a while back.

You could use a custom rom like leedroid, there you can define your favorite app for pictures and it will launch from the camera.
And you can use custom roms without root.

Sure I know about that, it was just a hint to the right direction.
There are some very good guides for it.
What if you sideload the old Gallery app?

install htc album from apk mirror, then disable the google photos app. It should default to htc album then.
It should but it doesn't, and I don't know why... When I disable google photos and install htc gallery nothing hapens when I try to open photos from camera.
Any fix for this yet?
Would love to see a fix too!
I got around all the little issues with Photos by disabling that app.
Then got "QuickPic" from Google Play and made it Gallery app in it's settings.
Aggravation instantly gone. Works fine without giving an argument about everything.

on our rom you can pick any gallery app as preview album in the camera app.
I've tried many apps as I've never really used Google photos before and had no luck with any. But I've started to like it now. Especially since they added opening straight to albums in the settings.
I'm sharing another Tasker made app with one simple purpose: get you into the hidden App Notifications menu so you can change notification sounds. As many of you know this menu is not accessible through system settings. There are many methods of accessing it, including Nova, Tasker, or other shortcut managers but they all require work and a bit of knowledge. This app makes it simple for anyone. Even advanced users may find it handy.
It does not require root or any special privilege. Simply launch the app to enter the App Notification menu. This accesses the built in Android notification management system and is simply the best way to manage your notification settings.
Please hit thanks if you find it useful ?
(Because of the nature of this workaround it will only work on the official EMUI 8.1 release for now. No custom ROM or beta support, sorry. Once I've updated to 9 I'll share the new fix if necessary. I have Canadian L04 model though and updates happen here slowly)
Not working for me (P20 Pro EMUI 9 Beta). App doesn't launch when tapped.
Works perfect. Oreo

I don't have 9 yet but I'd assume you'll find it in settings under Notifications where it should be. AFAIK it was unintentionally left out in 8.1 which is why we had trouble. If it's included in 9 a simple search through settings should reward you. ?
Works perfect, thanks!
Works perfect.
Broken link
Hi,
I see link to the apk if broken, i could not download the app.
Does this fix work also for P10 running EMUI 8.0 ?

The link is working for me, try downloading from another browser maybe. I have no idea if it will run on the P10 but it might. If it does please report back so we can share with P10 users too. ?
This apk is totally useless. It's a joke? The same you can get if you just go to the notifications.

Apparently you do not understand what we're trying to accomplish. You cannot change notification sounds in the menu you refer to in EMUI 8, only turn them off. But there is a secret hidden menu that allows to change any notification sound for any app you like. It may look similar to the one you are thinking of but if you know what you're doing it is very different, there are far more options available. You cannot get to this menu by any other means than sending an intent, whether via command, a shortcut from a launcher or an app like I've shared. Trust me, there is a purpose for this or I wouldn't have so many thanks for it already. But if you're okay with having the same notification sound for every single app on your phone that's cool too. Whatever floats your boat. ?
We can use Nova Launcher to create a shortcut that link to this Notification settings in this thread.

You can use Nova Launcher to do this, yes. Other methods all involve installing a shortcut creation app of some kind and finding the correct settings entry. This app is for people who do not use Nova or would prefer a simple method with the hard work done for them. It's a pain digging through all those settings entries if you don't need to. ?

This app saved my sanity after switching from a LG G5 to the P20 Pro. Many thanks!
I'm sorry, but to change the sound for any app I go to config/applications/aplications/ choose the application I want then manage notification then sound and choose what I want... Using pie with a L29. I came from a custom pie rom on an oneplus 2 and, as i remember, I use to do it like that also... Did I missed something? Sorry about my English.

This is fantastic and really useful. I thought there would have been a discussion thread about this? I just wanted say thanks and also ask why the icons went from normal size in v1.3.9 to super magnified in v1.4, will there be a way to change this? Also I can't seem to navigate the new app information options very well, there are no highlight changes in the menu when you move up and down. The screenshot looks very different

Honestly, I don't remember what the size of the icons were in version 1.3.9
If there's a popular request I could add an option to choose the size.
Can you add a screenshot with how the context menu looks in your device? What version of Android TV are you using?
@easyjoin after some more testing I found that App Launcher v1.4 works fine and displays the same as your screenshot.
There seems to be a glitch that occurs when launching the app after install, confirmed on multiple devices with both versions, which I had mistaken as "super magnified" icon changes in the v1.4 update.

This screenshot shows the version of the app for phones and tablets. It seems that the Play store instead of using the Android TV activity when opening the app, as it should have done, uses the one for phones and tablets.
Good to know even if I couldn't fix it since it's a Google problem.

Well that makes sense then, and I found after testing that it's not an issue once you re-launch it.
Thanks again for such a great app !!!

Now that it's clear what the problem is, I can try to find a workaround.
Fun fact: there is a one star review on Play store of someone who complained about the size of the icons. If he had contacted me, via email or here, as you did, giving me the chance to get more information about it I could have tried to find a solution long ago. Unfortunately, many people don't know that the Play Store, as it is structured, can't be used to analyze bugs and the best thing is, after leaving the review, to contact the developer by email.
