I apologize if this has been discussed, I really did search and only found one place where this was asked, but there was no answer. According to the Samsung 7.7 features page it says this "Mini Apps : Upgraded so you can choose and edit your own Mini Apps tray. You can easily access favorite features such as Calendar, Email, or PenMemo as a pop up over full screen applications. " So obviously my question is this. How is this done? Or is it even possible on my model? Thank you and again sorry of this has already been addressed.
If you look at the bottom bar on your Tab you will see an icon that looks like an upside down 'v'. Click on it and it will bring up your mini-apps tray. You can launch those mini apps over the app you are in.

I think you misunderstood my question. I know about the up/ down arrow and the mini apps. But it says that is is Upgraded so you can choose and edit your own Mini Apps tray. So Im trying to figure out how to change them if its possible on the wifi only 6810. Thanks

I was able to get it to work by applying one of the systemui.apk files from here. I am able to edit the mini apps now on my 6810. Thanks

Im not totally sure which one I used, but it might have been the one in post 19. But that one will change the icons as well. Im not sure where you might get one that is stock. The same author of that thread "Ssaass" makes an app called "Wizzbar" that might help you. I may be able to make one for you. Upload your systemui.apk and Ill see what I can do.

Ok, didnt think I forgot about you did you? I think this is what your looking for. The edit function shows up when you press the mini apps button. Lower right corner, cant miss it. This is all stock icons with edit function built in. Hope this is what you wanted. I tested this on my rooted stock 6810. Let me know if it works.
PS: For anyone that might want to know how I did it. All I did was use the "layout" folder in the Res folder from the apk that has the edit function. Then rezipped, changed name and permissions, and put back into system/ app.
Awesome... Thanks for your time. I'll try it when i get home tonight. I'm thanking you now anyway...

Yes, it works, thanks... But what I didn't expect is that you can't add any app you want, it's just limited to some samsung "mini" apps which really su**s!
I wonder if there's a way around that...
Thanks again I really appreciate it anyway.

I'm running TAZv9 mod and have a nice looking color mod that makes my phone look and run really nice. Just curious if there was anyway to change the color on the screen that comes up when you are in a call. It has a red background when the call ends and green while you are in the call. Is there anyway to change this to a blue or whatever when you are in the call...basically is this something that can be skinned with one of the programs that is out there(MetaMorph).
I'm 41 years old and my 20 yr. old son has gotten me into this whole rooting thing. I appreciate you all letting an old guy hang in your forum. I write test software for a living so I am interested in maybe getting to the point where I can start messing with my own software apps, etc.
I'm sorry if the question seems really dumb to all you bright young people, but I couldn't find anything about it on the search button.

I can probably put together a quick metamorph for you. The file is in Phone.apk
So instead of the green gradient you want a blue gradient? And keep the red gradient when it ends?
Just place the attached file on your sdcard in "AndroidThemes" and use Metamorph.
Yep. That is exactly what I want. Thanks!

Hey, not sure if you have had a chance to make that blue gradient yet? I was thinking I might just try to do it myself. So, do I just find the file on my phone, copy it to my

Copy it to my computer and then use something like photoshop to edit it?
Sorry about the two posts...I was replying from my phone and somehow hit the menu and send as I was typing away. Is that file recognized by most picture editing software packages or do I need to convert it somehow? Thanks for any and all information. If there is a post or Wiki about this somewhere Im sorry...please point me in the right direction.

Just download the file and your computer. Hookup your phone and mount the sdcard. Then create a folder on it called "AndroidThemes". Next download "Metamorph" from the market. Run it and select the "blue-in-call" theme, and apply it.
Yes...I figured that out and it looks great. My questions were about what you used to modify the graphic (Photoshop)? Im hoping to start modifying some stuff and make my own graphics to use with Metamorph.
Thanks again for your help and for not flaming the old guy!

There was a blue gradient in the apk already. I just renamed the file.

Install the following app. Download from my dropbox account.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38673648/apps/HoneyBar_v1.0.5.apk
Needs root access. Press on the white box in the middle of the status bar to hide it and press on it again to bring it back. Enjoy!
I know you had good intentions (haha) but it's been mentioned . Idr where the thread was though.
I'm sure it's been mentioned. But I thought it's nice to provide another source for this app. Besides, here is something that you might not have thought of.
A friend of mine is lecturing at a university. He's starting to use his TF hooked up to a projector and write notes using writepad stylus, the only note taking app for android that has palm rejection. It's great.
The problem is it is very easy to accidently touch the notification bar and pops up the notification window when you're writing. Writepad stylus solves this by having a flip screen to upside down feature. But when you have it hooked up to the projector, everything is upside down. So, he recently asked me figure out a way around this.
Hence honeybar.
Now, you don't have to flip the tablet upside down to write. Simply hide the status bar and you're set.
I think that was the point of me starting this thread. It's not just for hiding the status bar. It's what you do with this ability.

Is the source posted somewhere?
If not, no problem, I can run baksmali and take a look. I ask because I have heard similar requests to put stuff on the status bar.
Thanks!

Hey guys how are you all?? ... hope you are fine..
hey i need to know if is there any app which can launch others app's activities... i had recently installed CM9 on my defy+ and i found the lock screen options has a very amaizng cool option which can lunch any app from any of its activities.... so i can start for example facebook directly from my profile view activity... is there anyway to run such activities directly from a console.. comand line or any app which does the same out of CM9???
thnks it would be very cool :victory:
Questions go in the Q&A section
What do you mean by "console"? A Terminal?
Anyway, I have Apex launcher on my device and there it's possible to place shortcuts to specific activities on homescreen.
E.g. I have a shortcut pointing directly to the tethering settings activity.

Hm I don't think that this is possible (but you simply gonna try that)... for me it's more like a 'shortcut' to save you time that you normally spend tapping on your screen.
I just got my first Note series phone. I was wondering if there is anything I should straight delete after turning on the phone for the first time.
Someone said delete the Tmobile app cause it can show you're rooted? I held down and moved it to Remove spot., but does that delete it from the phone?
If anyone knows of any others that would be much appreciated.

No, system apps can't be deleted unless you are rooted. They can be disabled tho, which will remove the icon from the App drawer.
What you did, was just remove the icon from the desktop.
Ahh. Ok, thanks for the response.
I think even though I disabled some of the apps. Some still show up in App drawer. Like Music. I disabled that cause I have 3 freakin different music players. Like why the hell do they do that?
Anyways it's still showing up on my App drawer.
Rooting is really tempting me. Even though this is my first Note and have no experience doing it.

You should try using a different Launcher. Such as Nova or Apex. They have the option of 'Hiding' the icon that you don't want shown in the app drawer. Maybe you should start with that since you are new rooting.
Oh i thought you needed to root to change the launcher. Thanks for that info.

You can completely change the look of your phone without rooting, but you won't be able to do a lot of the things people like to do.
Here is a link to a good article on various launchers: http://www.androidpit.com/what-is-the-best-android-launcher
I really enjoyed Buzz Launcher for a long time, but I'm using Smart Launcher now with Cover Lockscreen on top of it. Can't wait to get my Note 4 and make the big from my Note 2.
Do the BlackBerry keyboard predictions work everywhere? They don't work in chrome for me especially when trying to type in the address bar and on Google.

Nope it doesn't work in chrome, there was a modified keyboard here on xda but the poster removed it.
