I cannot access anything from double tapping the screen now that I installed the new Null Rom. I want to be able to get to the standard Note 3 settings for Volume and Brightness, as I shut down the volume while sleeping to avoid hearing incoming notifications, and to adjust screen inside or outside. Any settings in Nova or other that may have caused this, and how do I get this feature back? Thank you.

Thanks, but did read, and he only talks about double tapping the Home button, not the screen.
Lock the screen in Nova settings, then set the double tap gesture to whatever you want.

Just got done chatting with fOmey. Looks like we can get something similar but we need to install gravbox from the rom to get the settings. I have have quick access to what I need. I will work on adding in a tutorial next week some time.
Nice options with gravbox
Adding to almulders reply, if you want the stock double tap experience you have to use the normal systemui.. not the full systemui.
The double tap action expands the notification panel in the watch system ui, when you use the full system ui this obviously overwrites this and opens the standard notification panel.
Gravitybox enables additional toggles, which will allow you to toggle sound mode etc.

Thank you very much fOmey. I appreciate all your work, but being in USA I found that the only real feature that i would use is the Google Search. I am hopeful one day for a fix to our bluetooth issues on AT&T, but until then I will keep checking in to see what else you and the great community can add. I cannot regretfully ever hack my phone rom, as i am on a Corporate exchange system and had to sign off on a policy stating I would not do this type of thing. I would have already tried the International one otherwise, but I am a Director and cannot get in trouble over this with the company. Thanks again.

Hey guys!
I'm wondering on how to remove the TouchWiz lockscreen because I'm about to use Lockbot wich act buggy with TW Lockscreen, it shows the TW Lockscreen before switching over to Lockbot.
Is there an APK somewhere i can remove to get rid of TouchWiz lockscreen (the one with the puzzle sliding etc.) ?
Thanks in advance masters!
Im in a similar predicament, i actually am using a passcode right now so it doesnt look like touchwiz

Thank you for your reply, the problem is I cannot use Lockbot now because the TW Lockesreen messes it up. Also on Exlair (Android 2.1) it is not possible to set up a passcode, FroYo is needed for that plus this won't fix my Lockbot issue either. I alreafy did some diging in the APK folders but couldn't really sort it out. You are on FroYo I believe? It is possible to set a SIM pincode but that doesnt help aswell.
PEACE!
The free app NoLock will remove your lockscreen entirely, if you press power/home to wake your phone it will immediately be unlocked. There are several apps on the market to replace your lockscreen with a different style but in my experience these aren't completely satisfying - sometimes the original lockscreen appears for a splitsecond, other times they're just not as responsive and may take a second longer for you to unlock the phone.
Regardless, just try searching the market for 'lockscreen' and see what you find. WidgetLocker is pretty good but not free.
Indeed I am on Froyo, I wasn't aware it isn't available on eclair. Well, if anyone else finds further development besides market apps that seem to slightly lag please help out!

This is exacly my problem, LockBot is one of these tools, it shows the default TW Lockscreen for a second before switching to LockBot Lockscreen, this is exacly why i want the TW Lockscreen removed
Oh and thanks for thinking with me
Download SGS INFO on the forum here install and run the app selecting set powerbutton action. Select the tickbox and this will permantly disable the lock screen until you select otherwise.
The beauty if this is that it doesnt use a 3rd party app to do this just provides a shortcut to hidden options within the SGS.
Hope this helps.

You can also easily revert back to the stock lock (...and two smoking barrels! ) screen by modifying the code in /system/framework/android.policy.odex.

i installed the app. but when i choose set powerbutton action, i have only this one on the list :
shutdown: enable to shutdown on end call long press.
thats not right or ?
which code must i enter to disable lockscreen.
and would it be the same code to reactivate the stock lock screen ?

when i tick off the shutdown option, then 3 things happen:
1. the question if i really want to shut down my phone is gone. (i think this is the real action, what it does)
2. when i restart my phone, the sim card is not accepted, its even not asked for pin. i tried 3 times, so its not working
3. the lockscreen is gone.
so i need an other option, maybe i will deinstall it completly.

Hello I'm kinda of a noob to this stuff (not kinda really lol) and I was wondering where can I locate this sgs download on the forum
As you can see I did search this topic...can't even find an answer on google. Which worries me...
Often, I'll swipe down from the notification bar which turns the app I'm viewing, if capable, into a multi window view. This is incredibly annoying. Coming from the Note 4, there was a quick toggle (or in settings) to turn this off. I can not seem to find how to turn this function off with the S6. Any help out there?
I was just going to post the same question How the hell do you turn off that annoying multi view crap?
I wanna know this as well and how do I turn off the lightof the back and the cent button also?

I found the new MultiWindow gesture pretty annoying. On my S6 every time I swept down on the notification bar using one hand I'd always create a floating window. On other Galaxy devices there is a Quick Toggle to turn the MultiWindow feature off/on. The ability to control the feature is still in the S6 however it is not exposed in the user interface. I wrote a small application that can either enable/disable MultiWindow or bring back the MultiWindow Quick Toggle. It was primarily written for the Galaxy S6 however it should work on most of the devices that include Samsung's MultiWindow. Look for "MultiWindow Toggle for Samsung" on the Play Store.

I stumbled across a custom quick setting app yesterday and I thought it was worth sharing. It's kinda limited at the moment but you can change tiles, hide status bar icons and enable percentage in the status bar battery icon.

The app does allow you to add a custom tile though, which is more than you can do with the system ui page. Hopefully it gets more features soon.
I'm on stock and neither of these work for me.

make sure you hold it down in the center of the cog and I would give it like a good ten or twenty seconds if need be. Mine took two tries and then it worked perfectly.
Still no go..
I'm using a rro layers theme but don't see how that can effect it.
You have to hold it down for a while. I did it for 10 seconds.

The cog actually spins under your finger, use a stylus or something that will allow you to see the cog whilst you press it.

Do you have a little wrench near the cog? If you do, it's already enabled. Then, go into settings and scroll to the bottom.
ill give it a shot but none of that is there...no wrench and no action when holding.
also make sure you dont have animations in dev settings turned off. animations must be on for it to work.

Hello,
I did a little searching but could not find anything specific to my setup. I'm going crazy trying to get double tap back on my phone. I know double tap to wake was working earlier in the day then I messed about in settings and I just can not find what I did that caused double tap to wake not to work, I'm running the Cataclysm rom on an otherwise stock 6.0.1. ANy help would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise, I'm going to go crazy and haunt you all.
Thanks
See if you changed something in smart lock.

I personally really liked MIUI10's recents panel, and not a big fan of LOS's.
I'd like to have a "clear all" button that I can easily access (though, not at the top), and I feel like besides "lock" and "close" it might be useful to have () to get to app's info page (e.g. to clear cache) and a button to go to its AppOps or privacy guard.
Maybe someone knows of something similar already out there?

go to google play and download Recently by Chainfire. this will give you the close all button back. it will also shut down apps that have been running X amount of hours and you can limit it to only have X amount of apps displayed in recents.
