App Lock in Touchwiz? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any in-built app lock feature baked into Touchwiz? People say Touchwiz is feature rich compared to other ROMs, but disappointing to see nowhere in the settings whereas MIUI has it.

No app Lock. Only screen Lock. Try playstore.

There is an App Lock feature in some Note 5 ROMs. I'm currently using Phronesis 5.0 and it has this feature. Alternatively, there's an app named AppLock in Play Store which does the same thing.

Some apps

Can anyone suggest me a lightweight music player and a sms app that would allow me to schedule messages?

The most lightweight music player I've used so far is Ubermusic, really smooth on my Milestone. It's a little bit basic, but with the Metro skin it's beautiful. PlayerPro is more complete, and it wasn't really heavy when I used it.
But the messaging app I just used the stock one so far, so I can't help you.
for messging the smoothest was metro messaging beta (less features) and followed by pansi sms(lotta feautres)
do add a thanks if it helped

This can be achieved by apps. Super video is a floating video player, air calc is a floating calculator, floating banner gives you a onscreen menu to start apps and view widgets.
/edit: oh yeah, forgot about floating browser.

I have always wondered why android does everything full screen. On a phone with limited real estate OK I can see that but on a tablet with a lot more real estate why don't we have a more desktop like experience? Ii hope key lime pie bakes in multi window functionality because its quite silly to waste so much space since there are plenty of people who truly like to multitask.

I agree, a multi window mode would be awesome.

Its the app developers that need to implement it, not the rom. The functionality is already built into android.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk HD
But if the app developers dont use this function then what is there to do about it?
Could it be built into the launcher so that all apps will have a frame around it where you can change between full screen and windowed mode? Just like in Windows

??? I get the translation of "La Polla" to be "****" ???
+1 for the option, I would also like my launcher to be split as well. I like to have a 12 x 6 grid of icons, would love the launcher to rotate as two separate 6 x 6 grids
This won't happen until Google makes it in Android. The only way to make it responsibly is to implement it as an opt-in api. But, only Samsung or Google have the clout to make such an API and actually get developers to use it.
CyanogenMod developers wanted to improve Cornerstone but we were literally threatened by a Google employee on Google+. While Cornerstone was exciting at first, I see where the Google employee was coming from. Multiwindow, if done badly, will cause even more fragmentation issues for application developers.

That's right. But in Spain (I don't know if it's the same in South America), it's used as an equivalent of "sweet" or "cool" times one thousand.
It's really common, but not usually used in written form.

Looks like google translate leaves a lot to be desired.
I recently used it to translate the word Preto from Portuguese to English. The results are shocking, I reported it to google
Hey guys, I've heard that the official AOKP ROM for the N10 could be getting multi window in the future. If you head over to the thread some users have asked about it and apparently the devs have plans for it. besides that, its a lightning fast ROM

Any app, kernel or ROM support this?
I have a number of apps where I'd like to keep them running in the background, minimised or windowed but keep running, and currently they basically close themselves if I swap to other apps. Examples are Hulu and Slingplayer. I think I know why Hulu behaves like that.... its to try to bully you into watching the commercials, not sure why Slingpayer does it though.
On a desktop OS like Ubuntu or Windows I can just run multiple apps concurrently and they run independently of if on the screen or not. Good for doing something else whilst Hulu plays its commercials.
I've been searching and seems the OS has the hooks but the app must enable itself? Is there a ROM which allows it? OmniROM seems to??
I've only played with stock Android and a few kernels so far.
I got a Nexus 7 I can brick as a playing system til I find a solution to then put on my N10.

See my signature below for a link to a working split-view custom ROM (Tempest). It can be tempermental as it is still a work in progress. For YouTube in split-view use an alternative playstore app called Viral. In my opinion it is better than Google's app anyway as it provides the options users have requested for a long time.
Tried to find appropriate thread but this might be the closest. My N10 is still rooted & running 4.3.1 and I haven't found a compelling reason to update to 4.4.x because of the slew of reported problems others have experienced with their updates. Also I don't want to lose the split window settings menu unique to the larger tablets, which I understand has been lost with 4.4. Has that split menu settings been restored in later updates of 4.4?

If you just want to take notes then there are alternatives. If you want those notes to be fully indexed via ocr the it's a little bit harder I'm afraid

Post your Homescreens

Well, not much to tell about this thread. The title says it all.
Post your phone's Homescreens and do mention the icons, launcher etc. used.
Be nice to everyone and have fun
I will get my xiao mi 5 soon!
I genuinely do like MIUI but got a little bored of the same look after being with Xiaomi now for a year (had a Mi Note previously
Using Nova launcher as I like the smaller icons. Weather time line widget and switch pro widget as I find it easier to change settings than use the drop down menu.

i'm really enjoying the default theme and the stock icons of miui7, imho it's pretty much the sleekest and most elegant interface on android. it's clearly inspired by ios, but i find it much more appealing.

Enable Samsung Labs? (Remove app drawer)

Anyone seen a way to enable Samsung labs on the AT&T model? I want to disable the app drawer and use themes. Currently I have to use Hola Launcher to go without the app drawer but it's getting super bloated.
Thanks
By all accounts that I have seen that function has been removed from the AT&T model.
