I'm trying to get some help with my Note 3 running Free3 2.25, basically whenever I use chrome it opens in a window. The same as if you opened it with the S pen window. I have tried everything I can think of to stop it from doing this. It's really annoying since I have to use the S pen to click on the bottom left corner to get the maximize button to appear and the click that to go full-screen. It will do this even if I switch to another app and have it it the background.

Solved!
Actually I found a solution for this problem, you need to install the Xposed Framework and the XHaloWindow module and blacklist chrome. This fixed the issue on my Note 3 with Free3 2.25 and my brother's S4 running C-ROM. It should work on other ASAP and Samsung ROM'S too.

First off, very impressed with the phone, but just trying to figure out this problem; did a bit of a search first and I couldn't find anything concrete so I wanted to see if you guys could replicate it or think of a fix.
When using the default internet browser, if I hit the button in the top right to open a new browser window, it will go into the "window manager" screen. From there if I hit the "add window" button in the top right with a plus sign, it won't do anything. The only way I can open new windows is if I use the menu button on the bottm left. Furthermore, if there are multi windows open and I try to close one, it will give me the "Unfortunately the internet has stopped" message. Same thing happens if I try to back out of the "window manager" screen.
Any thoughts?
dont use the default browser because its terrible
Yeah I figured I'd probably end up using Chrome anyways, just wondering if anybody else is having this problem or if it's a bigger issue with my phone.

Im experiencing the same problem when I try to close windows in the stock browser.
I have no solution for you but hope that by posting this it will draw the attention of someone who has a solution.
And yes, other browsers are probably better but I think ALL stock software should work flawless.
Yes i was have same problem (dont have find this thread) :

Hello,
I have all air gesture options on and none of them is working, sometimes the air gesture symbol appears on the top, but rarely. Does anyone have this problema?
Thank you.

yes my wife's note 3 n9000q model has the same problem.
Any tips to solve it?
I've noticed the same thing, I think it's ROM related, because if you actually go in every gesture and click try it, it works just fine.
Also the gestures do work just kind of strange, I've noticed it with screen off, when you keep moving your are over the sensor a lot fast, the preview screen does come on.
Also answer Call and screen shot movements work fine.
For me I don;t use them as much, specially since the eye stuff work great, I would just leave it alone, I thinks it's ROM not hardware so changing the note won;t help. But I may be wrong, I still have like 10 days to exchange so if someone knows more info please share
Problem solved.
Went to the shop and replce it for a new one. the sensor was broken.
I don't get the icon, but it does work.
Not that I use it, it drains my battery to much.
Hey Guys,
So here's the explanation. The Air Jump icon which looks like a hand with directional arrows around it only appears in the embedded email application on the Note 3 as well as some select 3rd party applications on the Google Play Store.
On the Galaxy S4 it appears in the embedded browser as well to allow users to scroll through web pages by waving your hand from bottom to top or top to bottom.
I'm not sure why they have left this out but i imagine it's because the phone has smart scroll already which might make air jump redundant.
Hope this helps.

Has anyone tried to pull the Browser from the S4 and install it on a Note 3 to see if the air gestures work in that? I too was disappointed when I got my Note 3 because I actually used the full page scroll and left/right page switching a lot on the S4.

Maybe your sensor was indeed broken, but mine is fine (Works with Air Call Accept, Email app)
I can't seem to be able to use the keyboard to type in the top app when I use multi-window. Pressing any key reverts me to the app on the bottom half of the screen. I'm using Swiftkey btw. Anyone know fixes? Thanks in advance.

I believe when you are using Stock Keyboard, you can detach it and move around when in Multiwindow mode. But i don't know about SwiftKey, play around in it's settings and see...

Wow bro i was exactly in this moment post this issue.
I have the problem to i cant type in the upper app whatever the app is, i also use siwftkey. Have you find any solution? this happened to me after upgrading to kitkat sm-n900.
I tried undocking swiftkey and it worked, but it can be the complete solution. There are some pics of different apps , another issue is that when i want to edit the multiwindow apps the option to go play store is not available.
I don´t know were to look, if any of you know something please share
Thanks
Nope, sorry man. Currently i'm just sticking to swapping the top screen with the bottom whenever I need to type. Tedious though
I have this issue too. I noticed that the stock keyboard doesn't have this problem.
As a temporary solution I used tasker with the note buddy plugin to automatically switch the SwiftKey keyboard to stock.
I know it's just not the best solution since you always have to pull out the s pen, but it's something.
For those who don't have tasker, there's the SpenBoardswitcher.

Has there been and solutions or updates to this? Driving me nuts. I noticed that after I updated my note 3 to 4.4.2 on att this issue presented itself
Swiftkey doesn't support Multiwindow. It has never officially done so.
Ugh. Quite frustrating but it is what it is. Thanks for the response.
Hi Forum,
I have a bit a problem with my newly upgraded Note 3. Been searching online for a while now and not getting anywhere, so I thought I might start a post here to ask the experts and hope it would help some others with the same problem. Thank you all in advanced.
I have installed the leaked 5.0 rom on my note 3 only recently and everything seems to be working perfectly fine except I can no longer able to use the swipe down gesture to pull down the notification bar. At first, I thought it was the 3rd party launcher I am using that has compatible issue, but after the trying out 2 other different launchers (even paid for one), the problem still exists.
Basically, if I move my finger all the way up to the top and pull it down, it will work, but if I use the swipe down anywhere gesture offered by 3rd party launchers, it will not. And yes, I have tried different gesture options but none of them works.
Given Note 3 is a large phone and I have been using the same way to pull down my notification bar for many many years, it's very inconvenient for me to operate the phone now. And I am pretty sure there's many more out there with the problem who would understand the frustration I am having now.
I am not sure if it's the rom or if there's anything in regards of the settings... if anyone knows anything about how to fix this. it will be really great!
Anyone? Any ideas? Please?
Hello, after a lot of search I still can't find a solution.
When choose „minimize" there is no little square on top of screen, it just disappear. Another thing is there is no pin next to X symbol so I can't pin it as widget. But this may be non stock launcher issue. So far, no solution is working. I remeber it was working fine. Now, when I minimize a note and it disappear I have to create another one, which is not showing as it is not created , then I have to click air command then S-pen window, sometimes twice, and after closing Spen window minimized note appears! Who knows why this works this way and not working the way it should?
I don't know if this will be permanent but I found solution, working so far!
I changed color of action memo background and I can minimize memo and it stays on top.
