[Q] Any way to change 'one handed operation - reduce screen size' shortcut? - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have smaller hands and I've found the 'reduced size' mode for one handed operation is extremely useful when holding the phone with one hand. However, the shortcut gesture to turn it on it's weird: you swipe from the border into the center, and then back to the border. While you do this this gets registered on the running app and things can get messed up.
Does anyone know a way to have a different shortcut? Like double press the home key, or something similar..
Thanks!

Enable the settings in the first picture, then you get a hidden sidebar which can be opened. Press on the button and it will automatically make the screen reduced without swiping back and forth.

Thanks! That works

Lost part of HTC home screen?

I have started using the HTC Home plug-in and have chosen my own clock etc. from the excellent HTC Home Customizer. Everything works fine until I move to landscape mode. It is OK in landscape but I lose part of the right hand side when back in portrait (the scroll bar part)- see red box in image. Any ideas on how to fix this?

That's the scroll bar that should be there and is probably added from the 3rd party app that you are using for your schedule to show on the home page.
PocketBreeze seems to be causing it, when removed it does not happen. Having said that I have no issues when in a normal home screen and this has only started happening today- was OK before with this set up?
Been testing further and it is not PocketBreeze. When I enable 'any' plug-in below the HTC Home I lose the right hand side, even the built'in Calendar plug-in. Any other suggestions to avoid a hard reset?

3) press the button that looks like a tshirt

5)select the color you want then press the middle button

[Q] how to cut & paste with stylus?

I tried out a Galaxy Note in a shop the other day and couldn't figure out how to select then copy/cut & paste text using the stylus. This was in the stock browser in web forms (in a CMS).
I tried long touches on the screen with the stylus with and without clicking the button on the stylus, but neither seemed to do anything.
How does it work? (assuming select, cut/copy and paste is actually possible with the stylus)
Works like finger long hold on a word then a menu pops up (cut,copy,paste,clipboard)
ON ICS
Here a SS from it

Cut and paste
Is there any way to take a screen capture of a selected protion of the screen using the s-pen? I find it a hassle to do a full screen capture then crop. Thanks in advance

[Q] Auto rotate not autorotating in home screen

Not on home screen or lockscreen even if autorotate is ticked, only inside open apps, why, and how to fix?
appfactory said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It's the way it's supposed to work, they can't be rotated, at least not without some modifications.
The Home screen does rotate when you put the phone in the dock that barely no one has-.-
That is one of my issues, when its in the dock, like Sony presents its own product

The dock was included in the package when i bought the phone, looks awkward when it doesnt rotate in the dock, not the end of the world, but still

Flashlight app

Had a rooted Moto X set up to turn the flashlight on when I pressed and held the volume down button while the screen was off. Since the Turbo has no root, can anyone suggest an app that can do something similar without the need for root access?

Torch
I don't know of an application that will add access with the screen off, but I use Tesla LED(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.flashlight&hl=en). With Nova Launcher, I have it set to turn on my torch via that app if I double tap my home screen.
Get power toggles and you can either put a torch button on your home screen or notification panel
