How do I turn off the sidebar? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hey folks:
I have been looking for days to turn off the little sidebar app with all the shortcuts. I can't find the app to disable or the setting to turn off!
Any one know how?
Thanks,
Saltheart Foamfollower

Try long pressing the back button
It took me a while to figure out as well. If you want it back long press it again (multi window must be enabled)

I've seen so many how do I or what is this threads it's crazy. Have we got so lazy where we don't read manuals? You tube Google. Come on folks let's try just a little bit.

Or you can use the Multi window button in notification panel.

Home button wakeup

Hi note II xda!
I'm trying to stop the home button from waking up the screen, but with no success. I've read a thread which said to edit seckeys.kl , but I don't have such a file. This is the thread :
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1836758
Now I'm asking you, what should I do to disable home button wakeup?

I personally like the home button starting the phone.

I'm using WidgetLocker , which means if I press the home button it wakes up directly without even going to the lockscreen, that's why I'm trying to get rid of it.
Nobody?

Disable clicking

Anyone know how to disable the click on the keyboard? Seems simple but have yet to find the option outside if turning the sound of completely.

When the keyboard is open there is a settings button next to the space bar. Hit that go to advanced and turn off the sound.

Lock screen apps

How do we change which apps are on the lock screen. I cannot find the settings anywhere.
I want to add Gmail to there since that is the main notification that lights up.

Right there in settings where ud think it would be.... I understand though, sometimes we just overlook something no matter how long we search for it...

Where is it? I still don't see it. Can you take a screenshot of it for me. It's not there.

Shortcuts, right under wallpaper in settings/lockscreen. U must have swipe to unlock, as unlock type to get these options I think...

[Q] Question: Can you force the home/back keys to stay on screen at all times?

Question: Can you force the home/back keys to stay on screen at all times? Like say if you go into the camera the buttons disappear. Is there a way to force them to be on all the time?
Yeah mine are on all the time.

They don't disappear on mine. However on mine the icons turn into dots sometimes, like in the camera. Not sure why.

Buttons stay or go away based upon the app you are using. Camera...they stay on. Netflix or any other video, they go bye bye. Varies by app I believe

Volume slider popup location question

Hello
I have a simple question.
I might be wrong, but im writing this because i dont think i noticed it before.
In the stock video player app, when you press the volume keys while playing a video, where on the screen does the volume slider pop up show up?
For me, it shows up in the very bottom of the screen in the middle. In both horizontal and vertical views.
Is this normal? Because i could sware remembering it being in the top-middle portion of the screen...
Can anyone go and check in the stock video player and see where your slider pops up?
Thx in advance..
