[App] Fast Notes Post-it Widget - Yet another sticky note widget app

Hi Guys,
Thanks to Moogoat for his great work.
Fast Notes. It's yet another sticky note widget, but focuses on a slick, easy-to-use interface for quickly adding your notes. It also includes some extra features, such as checklists and changing widget colour based on proximity to due date, that I haven't really found in any other widgets on the market.This widget is ad-supported, but users can opt out in the settings because I know how much some of you hate ads!

[Q] Need some help tweaking my Android

I come from a jailbroken series of iDevices and I need some assistance. I'm looking for a few of my favorite iOS tweaks on Android.
The first one I'm looking for is something that makes use of gestures. The app in Cydia was called Zephyr.
For example:
1. Swiping up from the bottom brings up the all the current running apps (the same as holding the middle button on the i9000
2. Swiping from the end of one page to the next switches between apps.

3. Add an toggle to the dock at the top to kill all running apps.
4. Add other toggles to the dock such as flashlight
5. Move Multiple Icons at once
6. Theme carrier logo icon/name.
Thanks

oh yes I'm running cm-10.0.0-galaxysmtd.zip from here: download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=galaxysmtd&type=stable

*bump*

So after having my new Galaxy Note 2 device for a few weeks, I have found the answer to most of my own questions.
1. GMD Gesture Control (****ing fantastic applications that allows for your own and some build in on screen gestures. You can map them to certain apps or built in functions).
2. Simplistic Framework. (Allows you to remap hardware buttons, tweak and edit general UI preferences and settings.
3. Omega Rom (Custom Rom with lots of built in goodies and loads of toggles.
In case anyone else is looking, those are my top 3 suggestions.

A few launchers from the market do these functions also

Download Apex launcher or Nova Launcher for ICS and up. Go Laucher also have that features you're looking for,.

[Q] Where is the torch widget?

I have owned Galaxy SII, Galaxy SIII and Galaxy Note 2. They all included "torch" widget in stock UI out of the box. It was really handy as a flash light.
I can't find torch widget/app in Note 3. I know I can install a 3rd party app but I would like to run as few apps as possible in the phone to save battery/RAM.

It's now called Assistive Light.

I do not see Assistive Light in my apps or widgets. I am on stock touchwiz 4.3. Can you post a picture if you have it?

Wallpaper Scrolling

Is the Note 5's inability to scroll wallpaper as you cycle through the home screens a bug or working as intended? If it's not a bug, is this function removed because of Samsung/TouchWiz or Android 5.1.1? (I'm coming from an LG G3 that had 5.0.X on it and it scrolled the wallpaper.)
To be clear, this was the feature that would move your background wallpaper slightly left or right as you scrolled in that direction through your various home screens- I believe it was called parallax effect?

I don't yet have the Note 5 - hopefully wont be too long. But this is a Touchwiz thing and is working as intended. It has always had a static background for as long as i can remember (at least back to the s3). There are some live wallpapers which allow scrolling other than that you can use a different launcher.

This feature was never there in touchwiz... We always used Root, xposed and wanam mod for it to work on TW ( wanam xposed does have tons of useful features for touchwiz)..
Or you could use another launcher like nova

You need to apply the wallpaper using the change wallpaper function in Nova! Works fine using Apex. Make sure multiple scrolling homescreen is on!

Feature not part of TouchWiz
Scrolling wallpapers have never been part of Touchwiz and probably won't be either, they would face so many performance issues with it if they did implement. The problem being they've added the new wallpaper effects that are similar to the motion features on iOS.

I guess you only had touchwiz phone last couple of years or less.
Live wallpaper is way more demanding than scrollable wallpaper and it's still around . In fact I'm running live wallpaper with scrolling effect on both lockscreen and desktop in nova without performance issues. Old galaxies and notes never had issue with that particular feature either. Sammy just likes to force differentiate themselves, even if its extremely dumb. Like having app selection option be set as default ,the first time you pick something.
The last sentence ...no contest....but not much of a compliment.
I'm sure though i saw scrollable option somewhere on touchwiz launcher just recently (checkmark in lower right corner in wallpaper selection). Probably when setting screen from desktop (long press). then again too lazy to confirm now, as i only see tw launcher twice a year. When i buy a phone and when i sell it. Provided i don't have to warranty the thing

S8 launcher and bixby

I just wanted to ask if anyone has tried installing the s8 launcher, bixby and the s8 AOD.
I remember doing this on the s7 edge. With android 7.0

yes...
check out this thread ..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-active/development/rom-mod-release-t3635879

Thanks for the reply. I was actually wondering if anyone has added the apk with out root. If you do a quick search online people have installed the s8 launcher apk, on the s7 and s7 edge.
