S pen button toggle in s note. - Galaxy Note 10.1 General

I've just updated to Android 4.1.2 with my note 8010. I noticed that 4.1.1 had the feature where you could toggle through the different pens in s note by clicking the button on the s pen. However I could never get this to work.....when I press the button it changes to the pencil from whatever writing tool I'm using....and clicking on the button after that does nothing, it just stays on the pencil tool.
I thought this would be fixed with the 4.1.2 update, but it hasn't. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
I can't even find the settings to enable or disable this feature now.

It kind of works for me on 4.1.1 (now 4.1.2). You have to have preset pens set up from the pen menu. It will toggle through them as you press the SPen button. It will also select the eraser sometimes too. It's not brilliant but it works OK.

That's great thanks. It works now.....I didn't realise that's what those presets were for. It now toggles them all perfectly. Although the eraser never comes up at all.

All working fine now. The eraser comes up everytime once I get to the end of the presets list.

[Q] Samsung GSII Rom Question

I'm using the HD2 Samsung GSII Rom and I can't get the applications button to where it should be (the right side) it just stays centered. Also I can't put any other apps in the 4 other spaces next to the applications button. Any Ideas?
Attached is a screen shot.
Have you pressed the 'applications' button to go into the app drawer? Once there press 'menu' bottom left hard key. Then 'edit'. You should be able to move the button and drag others onto the dock from there.

Exactly what I was looking for, thank you.
Is there a way to disable or uninstall the Chinese keyboard? I have no use for it.
Sorry, don't have a GSII but if it's the standard keyboard that ships with the rom then I don't think so.
Need to do a bit of searching my friend.

Keyboard tapping sound not working

Has anyone else experienced the problem with the keyboard tapping sound not working for the Samsung keyboard. I've tried everything in the keyboard settings menu.

close power saving mode or increase media sound from settings , or from accessibility
Tried that and it didn't work. Anyway got fed up with it and downloaded the keyboard from android 4.2 from the play store. So now I can do the swype functionality and no buggy tapping sound.

[Q] Disable keylights on PAC

Hey just signed up with my new email and I am unable to post of the PAC forum yet. so i figured i would get some help here. Anybody have any idea how to disable the back and menu key backlight. I hate the lights coming on even for just a second, its a unnessecary (but small) battery drain, and i really like how flat and black my phone looks and would rather not have those buttons show.
You may disable key light as it. Setting/my device/display /touch key light duration /always off. If I helped. Press the thanks button.

Thank you but i think that is how to disable to lights on the stock rom. I am using the 9/4 nightly of the PAC rom. the setting is not under display and lights.
It used to be under advanced settings. that is no longer an option. any ideas?
Use a different launcher like nova, apex or adw, long press the home screen and add shortcut. Add advanced settings. There ya go

Move settings across to the left so you get the screen with PAC settings scroll to 'buttons' down the bottom and you can turn them off in there

You can turn off hard keys. (sm-p600 mk1)

Sorry if this is old news but I seen a few people asking if you could disable these especially over at the clean Rom thread cause the developer included soft keys in the rom. Anyways again I'm sorry if this is old news but you go to accessibility/access control. It then walks you through a series of steps like if you want certain parts of the screen to not be affected by touch and so on. I thought this was pretty sweet. Not sure if it's for all models and firmware but worth a shot!

I'm on stock and I can't find Access Control in Accessibility. Is this a CleanRom only feature?

No... I'm stock right now. I don't remember seeing it before so not sure how I got it there. Maybe from exposed?

It's all the way at the very bottom of Accessibility. It is listed under Recognition. Turn it on. Then hold down the home button and and volume down to enter the wizard.
It should be helpful for when I do note taking at a meeting so I don't have to worry about touching the physical buttons. But for Button Savior Pro it disables the Home, Menu and Back so it's not something I can have on all the time. Plus the notification drawer cannot be interacted with anymore while this mode is on.

It can if you have nova launcher pro. With a gesture. The notification drawer that is...

I can open the drawer just fine. You just can't touch any of the notifications after you open the drawer.

Weird... Did you x out of the past that says disable parts of the screen with touch? Wonder why it does that.

[Q] Bottom part of screen stopped working, any suggestions for replacement navbar?

So the bottom centimeter of my screen stopped working (portrait), which means that the navbar doesn't work (duh) and the part I need to tap to send a message doesn't work (which really annoys me.) I need to flip the screen then type, then flip the screen back to send, or type something with "P" in it. For now I'm using pie but it's really inconvenient. Do you guys have any other suggestions to compensate for the broken screen? I'm trying to find an app where I can have a separate floating bubbles for home, back and recents, but none of the ones I try seem to work, or are good.
You can try mipop and see if that works
