Guide On How To Get Multi-Window On Xperia Z2 - Xperia Z2 General

WARNING! I'm not responsible if something happens to your device! Proceed with coution!
First, you will need to be on any Marshmallow build for Z2 which can be downloaded by the Marshmallow Beta forum somewhere downwards this post.
Then you need to use the Astro File Manager and go down to the /system folder.
Go to the build.prop file and open using text editor.
Scroll down to ro.build.type=user and change 'user' -> 'userdebug'
Save and exit. Now reboot your device.
Open your Developer Options in your phone's Settings and scroll down to the 'Drawing' section. There it will say 'Multi-Window Mode.' Click and activate.
Now open the recents app and click on the frame icon on any app in the upper right corner next to the cross.
Congrats! You have gotten Multi-Window mode!

Are there any other disadvantages of running a phone with "userdebug", maybe additional services that drain the battery? But I guess those just come on after turning the "developer options" on.

no disadvantages at all. Developer options are just initally deactivated since Multi-Window is a bit buggy. It doesn't drain battery at all

I never tried on stock rom.try replacing default setting app with this one.make backup of original setting first.
If it works ok,otherwise restore your backup
A nooby question- u said we can just backup settings app instead of doing the whole nyandroid routine, but i can't find an app specifically named settings (in tb pro). Am i missing something or is there an app in /system

Using root explorer go into system/app and copy setting app to SD.
Now take out the setting.apk from the zip provided above and paste it in app and change permission to rw-r-r and reboot your phone.
If it did not work,replace your original apk in same way
restarted, and it works.

Change S-View Cover Background?

Is there any app or root tweak that will let me change the background for S-View Cover?
I'm sure there are images I can swap out in a root folder, but I have no idea which one. . . .
+1 for this feature.
Should be under settings... changes the color not background though.

Yeah, I saw that. But I'm looking specifically for a tweak or image location that will allow me to put anything I want in it. Like a family photo, custom photo, etc.
I had the G2 for a few days and was able to do that with built in settings, but this one is different.

hello !
yes you can !
Extract the framework-res.apk of your custom rom, open with winrar v5, change or replace with your mainbg_pattern_mainarea.png on directory : res/drawable-sw360dp-xxhdpi .
On note 3, copy on your sdcard, and with root explorer replace this on system/Framework (reboot is automatic when you change the .apk) enjoy!
Background
Think I'm on to something!
I think I might have found a way. I deodexed a couple of files and decompiled them. Found some code that sets the Alpha to 10% on the background image of the s_view Cover. Going to try setting alpha to transparent. Once I figure out how re odex them I'll try it out and post my results. Probably gonna have a snow day tomorrow so I'll be working on it!

[MOD] Kids Mode for T31x KitKat TW Roms

KIDS MODE
Do you have kids that love to play with your tablet? Yeah, me too!
Now you can let them play without worrying about what they are going to delete or simply mess up.
Kids Mode allows parents to control which apps and media are available and time limits for each day.
Once installed, Kids Mode can be accessed by using the icon found in the app drawer.
This mod comes with a kids camera, media viewer, and sound recorder as well as the kids launcher and parental controls. You can download more apps in the included Kids Store or allow access to any downloaded app from the Play Store.
Flash the zip in recovery. For Stock Touchwiz KitKat based roms only.

v2 - Fixed Drawing App
Kids Mode Update v2
V2 has been uploaded.
The Drawing app has been fixed.
If you already have the Kids Mode add-on installed, you can just flash the zip attached to this post instead of re-downloading the entire add-on again. Flash in recovery, no wipe needed.
It appears to have installed just fine (in application manager), but I have no shortcut. I do have stock kitkat.
Any tips on adding the shortcut?
Thank you for sharing this.

You are more than welcome to try, but this is based on 4.4.2 and much of what is required is baked into the touchwiz framework, so it likely will not work with 4.4.4.

Help with iracasting on Nougat 7.0

Hi all. this is my first thread.. and i don't know whether i am posting it in right place or not, coming to my concern,
Miracasting was working perfectly when i was on marshmallow. but since i have updated to nougat i am not able to use it anymore. Right now i am on this custom rom 'http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/development/rom-debloated-prerooted-deoxeded-t3372600 nougat also disabled the option for 'enable wireless display' however after some research i edited 'build.prop' and added this 'persist.debug.wfd.enable=1' to the last line which restored the option to enable the wireless display, now my problem is my nexus 6p disconnects automatically with in 2-3 secs, even before reflecting the screen. Any solution ??

You would probably need to flash a custom ROM that includes that feature. I don't think One Plus has any plans to add that feature to OOS.

I mean any developer made mod module to enable it without flashing other ROM.

You need to create a folder on your SD card (see attached image) within to main Tasker folder.
Ensure the file format is .xml then import via the Tasker menu
Easy as that.

It may stop working because Google is removing accessibly settings for uses other than disability.
I use the app Silence! Do not disturb premium.
Works really well.
