I can't find the option for personal message on the lock screen on my note 4
It's there on my note 3.
I don't miss the option, but I just want to get rid of the one that followed from from the note 3 after synchronization.
The text is "Galaxy Note 3" that I made.
Not so funny to have on the note 4.

Well, I'm sure you have figured it out by now but I had the same problem after updating my GN4 from KitKat to Marshmallow and finally found it! So, at least for anyone else finding your post, here's where to find it:
Settings > Lock screen > click "Show information". At the bottom of the page you'll find "Owner information" which you can add/edit.
Settings > Lock screen & password >Lock screen message
There you can add a personal message on your lock screen.
Guys, I'm sharing few tips to enable S-Pen features on CM/AOSP based ROMs for Note series devices (works like a charm on Note 4 & Note 3).
The S-Pen feature is sorely missed by the users of Note Series and there are certain apps available on PlayStore which restore the maximum possible functionality on above mentioned ROMs. However, since these apps are not known by many, I've decided to make a thread which can benefit users who want CM/AOSP based ROMs without loosing the S-Pen functionality.
Hence, here are the steps:
1. I've tested this on recently released CM 14.1 ROM by @hsbadr for Galaxy Note 4 and it works flawlessly. Do checkout his ROM & appreciate his work by thanks and/or a donation.
2. Install following apps from the PlayStore:
a) CM S-Pen
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tushar.cmspen2&hl=en
b) Note Buddy
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tushar.spen_helper&hl=en
c) Screenshot Crop & Share
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flextrick.universalcropper
d) Sketchbook
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adsk.sketchbook&hl=en
e) Scrrenshot Ultimate (Optional as Screenshot Crop & Share is good too)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.screenshotultimate
3. It is recommended to install SuperSU as well because some apps may not work well with in-built root of the ROM. (I used Emotion AOSP in the past with in-built root and the apps did not work properly but with CM 14.1, apps work fine with in-built root. So, test your options. For some it may work & for some, it may not...)
4. Also, due to SELinux policies, a problem might occur that may hamper apps functionality. So, for that an app called SELinux Policy Changer (not available on PlayStore because of Google's policy, but available on XDA) can be used.
5. Open CM S-Pen AddOn app & tap on "Detection Disabled" to change into "Detection Enabled".
6. Open Note Buddy App & tap on "S Pen" tab. Enable this feature & then tap on "Auto Launch" menu.
Enable it. Tap the button below that says blank+ and choose Application Shade. Give it a name as per your liking. Close out the window & then Pull out the S Pen. Tap on the + symbol in the top right hand corner & tap on applications and add Sketchbook. Tap on shortcuts and add Take Screen shots for screen-write. Also, tap on shortcuts and add Take Screen shots for screen-write.
7. For S-Pen sounds, take a look at the below thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2474218
(Since I don't use sounds for S-Pen, I've no experience on how it sounds or work)
8. Open the Screenshot Crop & Share app & enable all the permissions that it needs. For simplicity, you can use "Floating Bubble" feature that places a bubble (similar to FB's Messenger Chat Head) which will let you to take a screen-shot with all the available features with just a click.
9. If you want a pointer for your S Pen then it can be enabled through phone's settings under Language & input. Scroll down to the end of the page & enable "Show icon when using Stylus" for a pointer.
10. Screenshot Ultimate is full of features but it might give some errors to some users or some users might find it bit finicky to use. So, I would suggest to use Screenshot Crop & Share.
For setting up Screenshot Ultimate, open the app. Let SuperSU give it root access. Next, the app will take a minute to set itself up. After it is done, click on Triggers and scroll down to custom shortcut and open custom shortcut settings. Select as follows:
When clicked----------> Take Screen-shot
After screen-shot---------> Edit
Notifications--------->Vibration, sound & toast
Timeout----------> 1 second
Go back to the app's home screen & scroll to settings and open open "General Settings." Change format and quality to your liking. Scroll to timeout and click Disable all timeouts. Close the app.
11. For performing the screen-shot writing:
Pull out the S Pen & once the window opens, click on Take a Screen-shot. After the Screen-shot, a screen titled EDIT options should pop up. Click on Draw. Draw something. Click on settings and save it. Click on view and open it in your gallery. From there you can share it on any app as per your choice.
That's all.
Start using S-Pen features on CM/AOSP based ROMs with ease.
In case of any issues, write in comments section & I'll try to help you out in minimising them.
If everything works, don't hesitate to hit the "Thanks" button.

Thank you very much for this explanation.
I haven't known that there is s-pen for cm/aosp roms until you tell me that.
Great to find a guide how to get it work.
If you could add screenshots to your thread to see s-pen and it's functions it will be great.

I remember that you asked for a help about S Pen feature on CM ROM.
Now, you have one....
Will add pictures soon.
What I really want is palm rejection. It's the only thing that is lacking in AOSP roms
Nice info and write up! Thanks!
Hi, thanks for sharing. I have a question, do you know how to get the heart rate monitor to work with CM/AOSP ROMS? I tried installing S Health on CM14.1 but S Health doesn't seem to detect the HR monitor. Thanks in advance.

Any chance of functionality on a n910t running LineageOS based ROM? Ive tried switching to permissible and tried using the CM pen app and it just crashes.
New to ROMs here and could use a little help.
Running a LOS 14.1 on my SM-P900.

hello,
Good day!
I would like to ask if anybody here is also experiencing missin cast button/setting in S7 Edge? The only option I have to use my Google Chromecast is by connecting using the app "Google Home".
I would like to use the Cast button in quick settings so that I can view the whole screen of my s7 edge and not just by App

Install "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock" and "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ztc1997.fingerprint2sleep" this apps. Open Fingerprint Quick Action app and enable. Select single tap action and select Launc app or shortcut. Tap Single tap app or shortcut and select Screen Off app. Now tap your fp sensor and activate Screen Off And Lock device administrator. Everyting is ok.
Good day.
I had a really f*king disapointment with galaxy's S10 battery life, and i'm thinking in buying a Galaxy S8.
But for that i would like to ask some questions before regarding android PIE upgrade, for anyone that already have it:
1. Is the battery better or worse than Oreo?
2. Does the camera app still accept "surround shot" option? (In Nougat if you install the app "surround shot" from samsung, in the camera app it would appear an option to take 360º photos)
3. Does the system still stores the fingerprint with a password, or removes it completely? (In Nougat after i registred my fingerprint and chose another unlock method, it asked if i wanted to store the fingerprint and asked for a password or samsung account password)
4. Does it have double tap to wake like S10? :fingers-crossed:
5. Does the always on clock has the option to show only with tap?
Thank you.
