It's hidden like in stock android phones. Type "about:debug" in address bar and go to settings in browser. Scroll completely down to UAstring and set the desktop mode. The browser forgets the setting so you have to set it again after restart I think.
Thanks didn't know about that..but tried it..checked desktop..and its still loading up mobile sites..ughhh really sucks

Install dolphin hd browser - I wasn't going to do the about: browser crap every time either. User agent is in the settings menu in dolphin.

Install a different browser. IMO I have used them all and xScope 6 is the fastest. It also lets you set to desktpp mode so every site is full.
However if you want a mobile site,you can set the settings for each domain as well.
Ok thnx guys ima try both of em out see which one I like

Tried a few browsers and im liking xscope alot. thanks
I use dolphin for mobile and xscope for desktop. That way I don't have to switch the settings back and forth.
So it seems that only certain apps work with multi-screen and it is not just samsung apps.
Here I plan (with your help) to create a difinitive list of all apps that will work.
I have already noticed that some apps allow themselves to be splitscreened even when they do not appear in that list e.g. official twitter app.
Some apps you will find when you press the edit button, you can then drag them to the main list, or remove ones you do not use.
Samsung Apps
- ChatON
- Email
- Gallery
- Internet
- Messaging
- S-Note
- Video Player
Google Apps
- Chrome
- Gmail
- Maps
- Talk
- Youtube
Third Party Apps
- Facebook
- Official Twitter app
- Polaris (Viewer)
Note: you will need to be using Samsung stock keyboard to benefit from typing when on multi-screen mode, otherwise your keyboard will cover the entire bottom screen.
I just installed the official Twitter app and it is now in the multiscreen menu tab

weird its not showing up for me, did you login to the app? maybe its because I have not logged in?
What about S-planner and Calculator app? I would think these would be two of the most useful to use multi-screen, or at least floating over the screen like the galaxy tabs.

a '*' denotes that the app works in split screen but cannot be selected from the list, it must be activated first then another added as the second screen, therefore two apps with the '*' will not be able to be paired together.

Mine had Twitter in it from the time the multi view was installed.
I had to press edit and drag the twitter icon from there.
Splanner and calculator do not work in split screen.

Thanks for the info. Bewildering why they would leave out calculator and S-planner from split screen. Two apps that would seem to benefit most from it.
Maybe Samsung will add more apps at future firmware updates.

Anyone know if there is a multi-screen api that devs can use to make compatible apps? It would be epic to get tapatalk and Skype added to the list.

Would love to use Skype with Multi-window. A video call while being able to use the phone.Actually, imagine Skype with video pop up. That would be fairly handy.
Looking forward to the future of the Note 2.
Ohh, This splitscreen rocks
Waiting for Skype to be added in this list

If anyone gets a chance can you see if Netlix will work, possible by opening it then adding something like Facebook to the screen. Thanks in advance, I'm so excited about getting this phone.

Press and hold the back button for 2-3 seconds. If nothing happens then your firmware doesn't support multiview.

Title says it all, I keep going back and forth, the only annoying part of using Chrome is that when you try to to scroll horizontally it is a little trigger happy to switch tabs/windows.

I use Chrome. I have the occasional tab switching problem you mention but it really doesn't happen often the way I use it. Being able to sync bookmarks, passwords, history, and opening tabs from other devices is invaluable to me.

Never used Chrome on a phone before.
I had the forward button on my Xoom tablet on the address bar.
I use dolphin find it the best overall. However some financial sites block transactions on Dolphin but work ok on Chrome. So for those I use Chrome.

Yea, On a TABLET. The ONLY way to obtain a forward button and tabs at the top like a tablet, You would need to wait for CM10 or something for Mutiapp DPI.
You wont be able to do that on STOCK rom..
Chrome and Dolphin here. The only thing I hate about Chrome is the lack of an exit button.

Boat browser is my favorite, better than dolphin IMO, chrome sucks on android.
The stock browser not supporting a permanent desktop-mode is enough to make me look for a replacement though, this is a HUGE letdown for me. Not only that, but the removal of flash content makes the stock browser almost useless to me other than the text preview function.
However, It seems the stock browser is the only one that supports text preview without opening a link (mostly useful for various forums) in addition to smart scroll.
Which would be the best browser that supports flash while not being laggy/bloated with features and also having a permanent desktop mode?
I've found the latest chrome update to be really slow. In comparison, the stock browser loads the same page/pages in double quick time. Am I the only one or is it a general problem across the board?

I also found Chrome to be too sluggish. The browsers with the highest ratings at least based on reviews were Dolphin & Boat. A lot of the reviews on Boat said it was very snappy, very fast and that imo is probably the biggest factor with Flash support and a permanent desktop mode right behind.
been using chrome, but slowly trying to convert myself to the default browser so i can actually use all the gestures that i paid to have on the damn phone
I personally love dolphin with the jetpack installed. Normal browsing, jetpack turned off. When watching flash, jetpack turned on. With that turned on, flash works like dream on this phone. Can watch full episodes of Colbert no problem =)
firefox
Chrome.
Works great.
So people using Chrome. ...does it have flash support?

Hello, I need to hide sms messages from one contact. What is the best way? I prefer free app but you can post paid apps too.
Thank you very much.
Have root? Try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.security.firewall. if not try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.project.memoryerrorthree.

I know there's a modified MMS.apk in Slimbean that allows you to blacklist messages and calls from as many contacts as you want. I've seen it in a few other ROMS too. You can just flash one of those and not have an extra app. Or just extract the apk and move it to system.

It has no additional icon, you get into by dialing 1234 then dial on the keypad, and it's opens it let's you put anything from one contact there (sms, mms, calls) and you can only get into it by using the code. Also, the default code of 1234 can be changed, and the app doesn't require root. Also gosms has a private box built in to it.

I can +1 that. I use Vault daily and this is by far the best Android privacy app I've seen. It was just a SMS hider, but now hides photos and videos and even locks apps now!
Plus, its privacy is polished to the extent that if you press back from the app, it also disappears from recents menu

It may be the best, however, costs about 7 bucks but it's well worth it. The developer always updates and listens to his customers.
that's a built-in option with Handcent.
long press on conversation and select blacklist.

Hi,
I have been experiencing slow notifications on my S8 ever since I bought it, specifically with apps like Twitter and Skype. After research, I tested turning off the app power monitor, but that did not help. Then, I tried disabling the google app and the problem was fixed. However, I do use the google app on a regular basis so I would like to find a different way to fix the problem. I have also tried a phone reset with no results.
Thanks in advanced for any help!

Go really if that works by stopping the google application.
I have it like that, but there are many other things that I lose when I deactivate that function, for example the dictation to google voice, a function that is widely used by me.
I read that Nougat did not pass.
Amazing that there is no solution to this. There is no other solution?
