Hi,
Tomorrow my Galaxy S5 will finally arrive. I've already watched a few unboxing and review videos. Now my question is, can you use the fingerprint to lock apps like Whatsapp and Twitter etc. ? I've seen an app called LastPass. In this app it is possible to use your fingerprint as a password but it costs 12$/year. Is there any developer who could make an app like this for free?

You sure were quick there and also wrong. There is in fact a way to have fingerprint lock on custom apps

I've noticed some apps like Facebook and weather bug, if you access their notifications from the lock screen it won't take you to the app like others like the stock messaging app would, you have to unlock the phone THEN it will take you to the app

For 3€ (the price of half a ham sandwich over where I live) you get a lot.
Search for "tasker android" on youtube.

Less than a week on the market and the fingerprint sensor has been hacked already! Glad I didn't switch!

Glad you didn't switch? LOL That's probably the dumbest thing I have read all day, no offence. You can fool any fingerprint scanner like this pretty much. I tested this on my payroll time clock scanner and the same thing. It's not hard to do.
Yeah but with the PayPal integration, if someone hacked your phone with the fingerprint scanner, your money isn't safe really is it?

This is the reason they are putting it less secure than PIN and Password as a screen unlock method.
So first they need to take a picture of your fingerprint and print this with thick inkt than the need woodglue

Seriously, did anybody really expect, that this fingerprint reader cannot be fooled??

So just use a regular pin like you do on your note 3. Your logic is kinda flawed.
All they did was prove it can be hacked like any other password. What they neglected to mention is that the preparation needed for this is so much harder than just looking over your shoulder and stealing a regular password or pin.
The best password I had was on cm7 for my droid x and x2. It was a gesture swipe on a background of your choice but it allowed for multiple swipes and with no hints or bypasses it was impossible to hack. Never understood why they discontinued it and it hasn't been implemented in android yet.

Isn't that the case for any form of password? If someone got your PIN/password/pattern, they could have access to all of those things you mentioned, without ever needing your fingerprint in the first place. So...what's the problem here?
Pro tip: Everything is hackable. Thinking otherwise is only being naive.
Hi everyone,
I've recently updated to KitKat and everything seems to be fine. However, I really don't like the new email app (not that I like the old one) so I am just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for an email app that works with the multi window function?
I've tried a few but nothing works.
Thanks!

If you root you can add any app to multi window and even have 4 way multi window

Aquamail. It also allows access to my corporate mail without having to encrypt my tablet. Which is nice. The stock app couldn't do that and the company wanted me to use mobile iron which I understand to be terrible.

Hi all.
I disabled s voice out of the box when I got the note.
A few days a go i was playing with it and installed s voice again and i tried it how it was in my car. Well it's funny but im not going to use it so I wanted to disable it again but now it's greyed out.

Try to disable it with another app say ROM toolbox. Needs root.
