I think developers should create like mods or apps to interact with the phone more while using the s-view cover. Like screen flashing with a sms icon when receiving a message. I am down to put money for any developer to start working on this.

Personally I wouldn't recommend one, there's really no way to check notifications and the music widget only works with the lg music player
Only good thing about the case is when you open or close it unlocks/locks the display

This is exactly why i would recommend it. I love that it locks/unlocks the phone without the double tap or touching the buttons on back. I find i never have to touch the buttons on back now (Not that it was any trouble - just never need to). But - to each his own.
I love it. The window is perfect for the camera as well when its flapped to the back.
Only thing I don't like about the the case is that it doesn't show battery and constant notifications for all apps like the Samsung version does.
Wouldn't be a problem if the notification light worked with every app. Maybe in a future update?

Hi guys
Has anyone found out a way to add shortcuts to lock screen with pin-lock.
My only solution is using the s-view flip case from samsung. I want more shortcuts!
Has anyone found out a way to erase with the s pen in s note WITHOUT keep going to the eraser on the tool bar.
The button on s pen used to be the eraser on the note 2 but on note 3 it only does screen capture, annoying!
TIA

i think you can only have shortcuts if you do not use a pin/password. maybe if you are rooted there ay be a solution, i dont know though. sorry, but hoped i helped!
What about the s pen is it bc of the att rom or all note 3 s pen is like this?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
Again, if you are rooted maybe there are mods that will allow that for the s-pen. I honestly have not seen anything like that at the moment though, sorry

You can add shortcuts and then apply pin lock. The short cuts will stay. If you want to change them you would have to turn off the pin security.
So I guess I could root the phone but is there a stock rom, general for all note 3 where we get all basic function w/o bloat wares...im not a fan of custom roms.

Is there anyway to stop the screen on Notification? I am rooted and I will happily delete a file or modify code if someone knows the answer.

What do you mean by screen on notification?
Sorry what I mean is when the screen turns on when you get a text message. I do not want the screen to turn on when I get a message.

Open messages. tap menu, settings, and then more. About midways You will see an option to preview message. Make sure that is not checked.
No that just prevents me from seeing who texted. I need to disable the screen from turning on

I did some surfing and found that the screen coming on is an AT&T variant exclusive and cannot be disabled. Sprint's version as well as Verizons does not come on. The preview option still lets it come on, just does not tell you what the message says. So you will just have to live with it unless you want to sell yours and get a Sprint version.
While that's not happening lol. Maybe I can find the build prop line and edit it. Thanks though. If anyone else has figured this out please let me know.

That does not control if the screen wakes up or not when you get a text. That just controls if it shows on the status bar and yes that is stock even for AT&T. His issue is the phone wakes on text and he does not want that. At least not so much that the screen lights up. That feature is an AT&T feature and cannot be disabled with an AT&T ROM.
It seems the attachment in the pic has the option for turning the screen on setting off. I like the stock tom and do not want to change it. Is there a way to just side load the mms.apk from his rom?

If you want to install and use safe strap then you can load and use the xnote ROM. otherwise due to the bootloader being locked there is no side loading on this version of the Note 3.

The post above yours by solarenemy (quoted below) seems to imply that sideloading mms.apk from another rom wouldn't even solve this problem (I don't know whether or nor mms.apk could be sideloaded - I think it could be, via the usual rigamarole for changing system apps):

This sounds like the sort of thing that should be possible using xposed framework... Though I don't know if any modules exist yet which do it.
Flashing ROMs would require safestrap, and could surely get what you want even within the limitations of the locked bootloader - but this is, I think, more dramatic than it needs to be to get what you want.
Your right. There was an option in Wanam. I would have never have thought to use that. Thank you so much.

I had the same issue with Note 2 and now with Note 3.
Fortunately I use Google Hangouts to handle my SMS/MMS and the issue does not occur with Hangouts app. I know its not a solution but I could not find a proper way to disable this with the default messaging app.
On a side note, I still have issue with Calender reminder pop-up which turns the screen on and there is no way to disable it. I have 100s of calendar entries synced through my Google Calender which has one of the default reminder set as pop-up on web interface which triggers the full screen pop-up on phone as well waking the screen.
Solved
In either case. There was an option in Wanam which gave me the feature in the mms settings.

The app is horrible especially with the stock keyboard. There is really no reason for this much screen to be taken up by the keyboard and text box. here is a screenshot of the stock app with Swype keyboard. you can see one message at most. http://i.imgur.com/ZhrM8rx.png
I've began just using the hangouts for mms with people. I'm not sure if this will work for everyone.
When I tried a couple other messaging apps that looked like stock 4.4 I started sending and receiving double messages. I really want to use another app because the stock version is horrible, but I'm resigned to using it right now until I can figure out how to fix this issue. It's probably my fault somehow, but it shouldn't be this difficult to figure out how to not send double messages constantly.
anyhow, the phone is awesome so far other than the messaging app.
does anyone know how to change the text size/messaging box in the stock messaging app? the settings were no help.
You could try hangout. That is what I am using now.

I just edited the OP to say just that lol. This is my solution for now.

I actually had an issue with that when I first got it as well. I kinda just ignored it, until I got EvolveSMS. It has a small text window so the keyboard only takes up half the screen instead of 75% of it. Give it a try.
I like it. Just press back to read the entire convo
Sent from my LG-D959 using Tapatalk
If you pinch or spread 2 fingers in the text box where you type it will enlarge or shrink the font size of the entire convo

hangouts FTW..
I just started using hangouts for my sms/mms also.. wondering though if there is a way to have the contacts app launch it for messages when I go into my contacts app? Or do I just have to start up hangouts all the time or maybe another contacts app that allows you to set what to launch into for messaging?
I'm using the EvolveSMS app.... It's a paid app tho...

Thanks for this. One of my gripes has been resolved.
I do love how it pops calls and texts on the screen in a bubble when you are in an app
Is there a way to customize which apps appear in the quick window when the case is closed? I want to change the music app to use power amp instead of the default music player. Also is there a way to check texts via the quick window instead of owning the cover?
