Since we have a really big screen on our Galaxy S4 its sometimes really hard to pull the statusbar down. I'm already using an app like "statusbar expander" to pull it down by pressing a softbutton. But then i switched to ParanoidAndroid and i found out that tabletUI set to 420dpi is the perfect solution for our phone! But with PA i dont have the SGS4 camera, the music player, or things like s-view, or the video app for example. I discovered that on other samsung devices it is possible to have tablet UI WITH TOUCHWIZ like on the Note2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2216311) Can somebody please make a TabletUI Touchwiz ROM for our S4 ? I would donate some money and shure others will
If you use Nova launcher you can use gestures to pull down the status bar. If I swipe down from any home screen it pulls it down. There are several gestures to choose from.

My admin enforces PIN on Android plus encrypted PIN, which is annoying as heck.
But the real downside seems to be that I can't add any widgets to the lockscreen. I have no issues on Windows Phone or iPhone to take a picture from the lock screen. Any clue how to do this on Android w/ Knox?
I'm on a Galaxy Note 3 using stock 4.4.2 ROM, updated via Kies. I am not rooted.
So my questions:
1) Can I add a camera shortcut (or other shortcuts) to the lockscreen with PIN protection via a settings change within TW?
2) If I remove the PIN and make the change will it stay once I add the PIN back?
3) Are there apps or other launchers that will modify TW to allow changes to the lockscreen?
4) Is Root or ROM required to make these changes? Any helpful threads I need to read?
Hope you can help. I'm pretty annoyed at the level of customization needed to make a simple change...
I did it with Widgetlocker. Add a camera to their lock screen and set that action to log you in for access to that app only. Works well!

I have enabled softkeys using gavitybox/xposed framework but some apps do not run well with it... e.g. the dialer overlaps with the softkey... see attached

some ported Note 7 rom have options to swipe on icons to disable or uninstall them. Could you please tell me what it is called ? just like the force touch of iphone. Note: it's present in stock rom of modded note 7 for note 4 and not some launcher function like nova etc.
Theres any s4 apps and launcher compatible with express?
