This is weird. 50% of the time i unlock my note, there is a random app that opens right away. Usually its the weather, instagram and even s-health open to the heart rate monitor. Anybody know why?

Same happening to me. Are you using the stock launcher? I'm using Nova. Wondering if it's launcher related.
Sent from my SM-N920S using Tapatalk
For me it occassionally opens one of my folders on the homescreen. Also on Nova.
Using Nova with prime as well. I will contact dev to advise of the problem

This is a Novalauncher problem that has been around since the S6. Don't know why it's not fixed yet.
It seems as we shouldn't not count on devs to fix this anytime soon as some people have had the bug since the S5.
In order to make a custom fix, maybe somebody can help me with tasker? I'm just getting started with it and have no idea how to program that. All i saw was an option to set tasker to go to page 0 but i don't know how to tell him to do that when the phone is unlocked. Would anybody be kind enough to tell me? BTW i'm not rooted.
Thanks

Maybe have Tasker go to page 0 when the power button is pressed. Should be under hardware or something.

I found the page 0 setting but nothing about screen on or unlock

How do I change home screen page in Atrix HD (4.0.4), so its not the first one, but the middle or 3rd .
I found a way to do it for other phones, but it had to be rooted... any way to do it without rooting?
Touch home. Press and hold screen you want to move. Move it where you'd like it.

I think what Ranfot is asking is how to change the default home screen from 1st position to 3rd so his phone wakes up to the 3rd position all the time. Other then loading a different launcher I couldn't find a way on stock. Maybe someone else has figured it out.

I too have not found a way to do this. Kinda silly if you ask me. It'd be so easy to do, and it seems every phone has the ability to do it EXCEPT the AHD. lol, good job Motorola.

Not possible, because of the quick toggles screen feature.

Hi, I have a Note 3 that I just rooted. I installed bri315317's Dynamic Kat 1.4 and GravityBox. I am trying to configure my double-tap home button, but it's not doing anything. Anyone else running into this issue?

Also in wanam under system there is a option to change long press home (choose what you want it to do) I remember seeing the double tap option somewhere I will see if I can find out where it is

The double tap home has worked on every other ROM for this device and all TW ROMs I used on the S4, but this ROM.
Gravity box does work with TW and the like, they just won't support it if it doesn't function correctly.

Do you think it is because of 4.4.2 roms? Or not working with 4.3 roms also I never use the double tap so not sure just trying to help out

I had a rooted S4 with 4.4.2 and the double-tap in GravityBox worked fine with that ROM (I forget which one)...

Working for Me!
Sorry, I'm a bit late to this thread. I have the Galaxy S4 and I can't guarantee it will work for the Note 3, but I was experiencing this same issue and was able to fix it by simply checking the "open via the home key" in S-Voice. Hope this helps someone else experiencing issues. :laugh:
Wow! This waa driving me insane. I had it working perfectly on my Note 2 ans when I set up my Note 4 I had the recent apps list showing when I double tapped the home key. Then I started checking out rhe device and out of nowhere, the double tap stopped working. I can't tell you how much time I've spent on it. I eveb sat there with my Note 2 and compared every single setting and they were identical to one another. The second I read your response I literally face palmed myself. I vividly remember unchecking the box as I waa going through the settings because I wasn't using it anyway and it was around the same time it stopped working. It goes without saying that it was tbe issue. I suppose it needs to be set in order to be manipulated by GB. Sorry for the long post but I'm thrilled to have it working and wanted you to know you helped.

Man i registered on this forum only to say THANK YOU SO MUCH! That's genious, i would never ever remember i turned this feature off in S Voice on my Galaxy Note 3 SM9005 and that it can affect doubletap. BTW the other program PBMC (Physical Button Music Control) can override it but it has ugly delay for every Menu keypress option
Wondered if anyone else has problems getting some of the tasked stuff to work with lolipop. I personally can't get secure settings plugin to work now with the pattern lock disable and re enable. any ideas?
Same issue. It'll "fix" itself to the correct seeing after a reboot. Haven't worked on it to figure out why though.

I appreciate it but I think I will wait on a legit fix from the devs. I guess that's the price you pay when you have the newest of the new.

No worries. It seems like the device admin isn't sticking (as mentioned in one of the links) When I toggle it then it toggles the pin. Until it's officially fixed I've resorted to using location trusted places (hope they do a Wi-Fi trusted location soon).

I actually removed some of the deeper system level tasks I've been using with securesettings in the past on my N6. I assumed many of them wouldn't work with the new OS and didn't feel like mucking around with them. If possible, the devs will figure it out eventually.
Thread revival!

Awesome. Thanks for the quick reply!
Anybody know why Tasker can't turn on WIFI tether through either the system or secure settings? I've tried this now on three different ROMs.
So I found a workaround---- visit the Tasker Groups at this post here.
Does anyone have car mode on their note?
I cant find it on mine. Checked in the status bar options and also all through the settings with no luck.
I heard that aome carrier versions do not have it. Im wondering if im in that boat (i purchased mine on a plan through Telstra). Mine seems to be a standard version though as there is no physical carrier branding on the phone, only incthe software when it boots up.
Im really surprised and disappointed that with todays techniology, i have a phone that cant assist me with the likes of reading back emails, sms, etc and all thst handsfree stuff while driving.
Please tell me theres a way i can add this function. If need bw im happy to install a different firmware that had this included.

I think it is a carrier thing, not sure though. You can Google Samsung Car Mode and there is an XDA member who uploaded one that works on the SM-N920I version.
Legendary! Found, installed, abd now one safe happy driver. Thank you!
Im going to have a look and see if i can install the stock standard OS without the carrier restrictions and apps. Seems silly to remove such a useful tool. Hate to know what else im missing

Originally it wouldn't show up in the galaxy app store. A week ago it did. Downloaded it and have some issues with it so I have removed it for now. After using it Google voice won't hear me and also have issues with using a Bluetooth headset with it.

Hello everyone,
I have been having this problem for a few weeks now, and it has gotten to the point where I think something is SERIOUSLY wrong with my phone.
I have a 512gb UNLOCKED N960U1. Never rooted. I'm a little OCD with my app arrangement so i have every app on my phone in folders so i dont have to get a finger hernia scrolling through everything.
My problem is that I use low-power mode often. I also like to turn in on while driving, and charge my phone in the car that way. Lately when coming OUT of low-power mode, I've found that my apps have DUPLICATED. Every. Single. One. Doesn't matter if the phone is charging, or not. They duplicate, BOTH APPS OPEN, and I have to uninstall the second ones with no data loss to the original(?) one.
I also like to change my themes weekly. Thats what originally started the problems. Recently, after switching a theme out again, I found that the phone had emptied out my folders into a giant CF in my app drawer. Thinking "at least its not old school Samsung LAG", I just put them BACK. No biggie.
NO GO. I did that THREE SEPARATE TIMES. I have 425+ apps on my phone. Sometimes SOME of the apps will be removed from the folders, sometimes ALL of the apps.
The breaking point for me was when I took it off of low-power mode as I was leaving the car, and the apps spread back out, and SOME WEREN'T EVEN SHOWING. Furious, I knew I was going to use my tapatalk app to get onto XDA to ask for help or guidance. Tapatalk Pro is on my phone, but WAS NOT SHOWING IN THE APP DRAWER. So i searched for it instead. It came up in the SEARCH, but not alphabetically where it SHOULD be. Now when you find an app by searching, if the app comes up, you can long press it and it will give you the option to "locate" where the app is store on your phone (folder, which screen, etc.) When that was done, the phone froze briefly, and then did nothing.
Im at my wit's end on this issue. The most horrible part is that I can't find ANYONE who is having this issue other than me. Phone has not been dropped, no cracks, nothing.
What the hell is wrong with my phone??
This is the most horrific problem I've ever read on XDA is all my time here. Sorry that I don't have a solution to your problem, but just reading through your post is terrifying.

Are you using 3rd party launcher? If you don't use low power mode does it still happen. What are using to change themes?

No third party launcher. I use the standard, built in theme options when I switch themes, and the themes are downloaded from the Samsung theme app/store/part.

Unfortunately thats exactly what I did. I started putting my apps in folders as everything was downloading. I also began to get rid of apps because I figured that definitely didn't help.
By the time the phone finished downloading all my backup'd apps, the two apps I deleted were BACK, and the apps came out of the folders I had just put in. Back to the same situation. :silly::crying:

Since what you're experiencing is most likely a software issue, you may want to factory reset and try not restoring any of your backed up apps, just manually install the basic ones and see how it behaves for a few hours.

I'm reviving this thread because the problem continued on the the Note 10.

Now I'm too scared to try it on my Z Fold 3.
This is a SOFTWARE issue...not a specific phone or app issue.
