How to activate floating icon of Air Command without S-Pen? - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

I am using Staedler Digital actively and I was wondering if there is a way/app that can be use to summon the Air Command floating icon.
Please help.
Thank you.

I don't think there is any solutions.
Being looking for answer for almost a year.
anyone knows?

The s-pen has to be undocked (i.e. not in the phone, even if you do not plan on using it), under options advanced features -> S Pen -> Floating Icon
you should now have an air command icon you can click to get to the air command shortcuts (can be moved around and placed in a location of your convenience), this icon only shows up once the s-pen is undocked.

Alternative quick settings?

Hi,
So over time, I got used to how quick settings work on the N7, but when I got my Nexus 4 I started to think how much better it might be if it worked the same on the Nexus 7. As in, notification panel appears in the center, and a 2 finger swipe or tap of the icon switches to quick settings.
Is there a mod available to enable this behavior? Or does anyone know how? I guess it's not as simple as changing an option on SystemUI?
I've searched around but come up with nothing useful, so if anyone has any ideas that'd be amazing
Cheers.

How do you disable multi window on the S6?

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 mean the back button and recent button, it lights up as soon as you touch the screen, there was an option to turn this off in S5.

I think I saw some settings for it in "/data/data/<settings provider, whatever its called>/ <blah>.db" (can't remember the exact name). So if you have root and sqlLite Editor you might try looking there
UPDATE: this database is the one I'm talking about:
then click on Data
Then click Data Aagin
Then Click com.android.providers.settings
then click Databases
CLick Settings
Click System

I do have root...so this will take remove the multi window? Considering we just got twrp I may just wait for a custom ROM lol
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.

Reading Mode for Nexus 6

Hi guys,
Could someone of the devs bring the "Reading Mode" from OnePlus 5?
In fact is a Black and White screen which I found it worthy in some situations.
Would it be difficult? I don't know, but I'm waiting for your opinions.
Peace!

Instead of asking to close the thread, why not post your solution so if anyone searches in the future, they will find you answer.

Yes, you are right. So, the solution is to go to Developer options - > Simulate color space - > select Monochrome and boom, you have "Reading mode". After this, you can "balance" the light from Live display.
To make things easier:
Terminal commands (root):
Disable monochromacy:
settings put secure accessibility_display_daltonizer_enabled 0
Enable monochromacy:
settings put secure accessibility_display_daltonizer_enabled 1
I use app Terminal Shortcut Pro for this and similar commands. If you need automatics there is Macrodroid, etc. Certainly, shortcuts from the terminal can be added in a variety of applications to run it.

Disable network traffic indicators

They're kind of distracting, and imo useless. Any way to get rid of them?
Wouldn't be too bad if there was a dedicated space in the status bar for them, but when they come and go, icons to the left bounce around.

Yes I find them to be very distracting as well. I did a quick search to look on how to disable them but came up empty [emoji852]️

I ended up just disabling the data icon entirely. I almost never end up in a dead zone without signal/wifi, and if you really want to know you can use a widget or KLWP or something to make an indicator on your desktop.

How did you disable the data icon?

Enable the System UI Tuner by pulling down the notification shade and long pressing the settings gear icon for a while.
Then, find System UI Tuner in the System Settings. From there you can disable various icons.
Sony monitor their own Community forums for feedback. There are a few threads over there already about these network indicators causing icons to shift around; plenty of people find them irritating. Be sure to add your thoughts to those threads and hopefully Sony will change the icons in a future update.
I went to phone settings and found a Sony email address and sent some feedback mostly about the status bar indicators, nfc icon, auto brightness, and missing Oreo night mode (blue light filter). But I'll check out the Sony forum. Both Oreo and the phone are fairly new, so maybe it's just they need to polish the software a bit.
I thought I was the only one finding this annoying. I was about to create a new thread about it. I think what I can do for now is to disable the entire icon and install some third party app for wifi indicator.

Multi Window/Split Screen

I am absolutely certain I saw this in the settings a few days ago, but I can't find it now and a search of settings is coming up with nothing.
Basically, it was a way to set up split screen but having both sides of the screen active. This was demonstrated in the settings as having a dancing stick figure in the active window and when I turned on "both sides active" (or whatever it is actually called) then both stick figures started dancing.
Can anyone help me find this setting again? I've been through every single option in the settings and can't see it anywhere!
Thanks
I think that's a Good lock setting.

Bingo! Thank you
Speaking of split screen.....
On my s8 I could tap the middle bar of the 2 apps I am running split and it gives me option to flip the two easily. I can't figure out for the life of me how to do this on the s10. Is it possible?
