hey,
I found this feature of taking notes on a black screen with the note 5 very attractive and someone wrote on gizmodo that it's already available for the note 4. can someone point me to it ?
Double Tap screen
Hi
The feature we have in the Note 4 is when you pull out the SPen double tap the Display with it while holding the SPen button, it goes straight into Action Memo.
Make sure you have Enabled it in the Lock Screen Settings, tick: 'Action memo on lock screen'.

Hi guys, im a new user of the Note 3. On the N2 I could use the S Pen button to go back by drawing a < on the screen, and others commands like that. In the N3 I can't find the option to do that. Any suggestion?
One workaround would be to press the back button with the S Pen. You can use the capacitive buttons with S Pen on Note 3 (no such feature on Note 2).

Yeah, I was wondering that maybe that was the reason the function of drawing a back command was removed, and even in the official website they seem to omit the tutorial of the navigation with the S Pen that the N2 had. Thank you very much for your time.
Hi
i used to capture screen shots in note 2 and note 3 using the s-pen button then touching the screen
But in note 4 i must click it to open air view then choose screen writing
So is there any way to add this option again without air view ?
Thanks

When I pull out S pen screen write is an option or you can swipe your hand across the screen or press the button to Smart select
I mean to hold the pen button and touch the screen just like note 3

I'd like to know the answer as well. Don't like having to choose from screen write or palm swipe.
Hi
Is there any way to get double tap to wake up feature on note 4??
Why would you want this feature when the Note 4 has a home button?
I would also prefer double tap to wake over pressing the home / power button.
Simply because when double tapping the screen you have your tumb on screen ready to go, unlike using the home button.
Added this feature to my M7 (which I was using before the Note 4) as this feature was not included by default: I had to flash a custom kernel, really loved it.
Using a flip screen at the moment on my Note now , so I have not bothered to get DT2W (as flipping open the case awakes the screen).
Kind regards, Stefan.
Hi,
I just bought this phone, upgraded from my Note 4. Basically on the Note 4, there's a toggle and setting for multi windows, but I dont see it on the Edge+? Where can I find it?
Also, on the Note 4 I can hold the back button then a side panel will appear with the list of apps that can be used in multi windows. But holding back button on the edge+ doesnt do anything?
I've done some googling but didnt find anything useful, pls help.
Press and hold the recent apps button. Available apps will appear at the bottom of the screen. You can scroll left and right through the apps. Just select an app and it will fill the top half of your screen. Second app selected will fill the bottom half.
Hi,
What you mentioned is split view. In Note4, if i have a full screen app running (e.g. games), then when i hold the back button, it will allow me to open another apps as a popup window so I can let the full screen app running while looking at the pop up app. But the split view doesnt support this as both apps need to be split view-able
I keep trying to do a print screen by pressing the rear power button and volume down but its very difficult as most times the volume just goes down. never had such an issue with the g4 I had
another thing is double tapping and going in through the draw password.
when double tap the screen it doesnt give you the option to draw the password. I have to swipe first then I can draw the password which is a pita. any way to enable a double tap to go straight to draw password option? why dont this people test these things?
how the hell do I disable google assistant crap "ok google" ?
1. easiest to do the screenshot with the VOL- button just before power.
2. No.
3. not sure as i like assisstant.
@rocketman1 I keep trying to do a print screen by pressing the rear power button and volume down but its very difficult as most times the volume just goes down. never had such an issue with the g4 I had
This one can be easier, you can use the quick memo ( Aka Capture + Plus )options and it will take screenshots for you, as i believe holding Vol down will do the quick memo screen shot if its on in the settings under ( Shortcut Keys)

This is to keep your code from accidentally being put in during pocked use if it turns on. I dont believe it can be shut off without some bigger edits to systemui

disable the google app from your app settings.

disable the google app from your app settings.

Or just disable the Google Assistant, if you prefer:
Here's how to disable Google Assistant:
1. Open Google app
2. Tap on Menu (three lines) on top left
3. Tap Settings
4. Under Google Assistant, tap Settings
5. Scroll halfway down the menu, and voila! A toggle to turn the Assistant off.
2. Funny, coming from the G3 I had similar questions. Not sure I need to swipe before entering knock code. Worked fine without on the G3. At least you can knock directly with the screen off, bypassing this, but sometimes I turn on my screen to see the notifications and the extra swipe is an annoyance.
3. Unfortunately if you disable it in the settings, then you lose the "Ok Google" from Google Now. Instead it just prompts you to turn Google Assistant back on. Similarly, if you turn on Google Assistant but don't give it Web & App Activity + Device Information data (which is every app switch you do, every movement of your phone or touch of the screen), then it takes your question but then just *****es at you.
Only workaround I've found for now (probably won't last forever) is to set your keyboard language to English US Virgin Islands, a region where Google Assistant is not yet supported. You might need the root app Language Enabler or some other method to enable that language. Hopefully someone finds a better resolution.
