How to get the Mont Blanc digital content for free - Galaxy Note 4 General

This morning i worked out how to get the digital extra Mont Blanc content for the Note 4.
Full details and screen shots on my blog http://gavinsgadgets.wordpress.com/...e-mont-blanc-content-for-samsung-note-4-free/
What you get is 2 new wallpapers and 5 new s-pens in S-Note.

That's cool. Do I need to keep Nova installed or can I uninstall it after I add the goodies?

worked like a charm

You can also use the QuickShortcutMaker app, no need to install a new launcher.
Wallpapers are there, but the extra pens don't show up in S-Note.

If you installed the app the content will all be there.

I did install the app, I see the wallpapers, as I've said.
I worked it out, the pens only show up in new notebooks. I was trying it on an existing one. They only work with the Mont Blanc template, which is now the default for new notes.

That's how it's meant to work

Anyway, you can go to More Features > Mont Blanc content and untick Set as default, if you want the old templates back.

They are only fixed images. The swirl in the ink effect unlock setting in lockscreen.

Works good for me thanx :good: .

I dont have Mont Blanc
When i go to and expand popupuireciever, MontBlanc is not listed there. This is Verizon model note 4. Was this not included on Verizon? Or did I miss something?

That's a real shame Verizon models don't have this extra bit of software available.. don't understand why this would be left out either.

is anyone able to obtain the wallpaper files or path to the Samsung Apps installer so that us VZW folks can partake? i looked at all of the promo material between montblanc and samsung and don't see anything that says Verizon or any carrier for that matter is excluded from the exclusive montblanc content...darn shame. any extra assistance anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated! great thread!

Htc sense 7 launcher for s6/s6 edge

HTC SENSE 7 LAUNCHER FOR S6/S6 EDGE​
Ok guys, so far this is just a base for a project, currently my device doesn't have root, therefore I'm doing what i can without. Therefore here is the sense 7 launcher working that can be installed on your Galaxy S6/Edge. Install both APK'S
Once/IF we get root i can definitely get things working better. However, in the meantime, when placing widgets you can jut tap them, and move them later.

Just stalking the forums lol. The wife got the Gold Edge so I figured I would look around and kill some time. I'm worried about the battery life for her use. She got the gold edge because it was pretty lol. Why did you not really like the edge?

No Notification Badge Numbers on icons
I assume because we arent rooted yet on this one that the Numbered Badge icon notifications that go on top of the App Icons won't work until we can get it rooted and figure it out? I have the sense launcher installed and when i get new emails or text there is not badge number on top of the icons?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/htc-blinkfeed-plugins-devices-08-03-2015-t3049438
I have that version running on my S6 Active and it works great. I had an HTC One M7 before moving over to the Active and after using it for a couple days I started missing that Blinkfeed and this seemed to cure my fix. Kinda like the best of both worlds, the only other thing I miss is the front facing speakers, but I guess the military ruggedness will have to make up for that.

[App Req] Stock Lollipop Dialer for S6

Hi! Anyone else missing the stock dialer features? I like how you can search Google for numbers and show who's calling. Is it possible to have it installed on S6 replacing the default dialer?
Thanks for your help!
I miss stock dialer too!
Me too
Bump. Perhaps one can port it?
I would like that too. Bump!
You can check this (updater script is not mine, I just changed the apks)... I still haven't an S6, but I use them on my Nexus
Contacts work. Dialer FCs.
I'm assuming flashing any zip will trip Knox? Any longer way to update workout it by chance?
Same here!
The Samsung stock dialer is SO UGLY!
Coming from a Nexus 5, this is the most annoying thing about my new S6 Edge.
2nd annoyance: the notification bar is as ugly as hell... :-/
Can't wait to get stock lollipop dialer on my S6!
Yes, I came from the nexus 5 too. Google should have the dialer on play store.

Yeah it's crazy. Why would they go to the trouble of making their own Clock app but then have it be inferior (both in terms of functionality and aesthetics) in every way to the Google one? Instead of making an inferior clock app, they should have allocated some programmers to making the flash LED turn off.

[APP] S Note 5.2.04.25 W/ Extension Pack & S Note Widget (working action memo)

**Welcome to the Fox Den!**
After seeing a lot of information about the S Note and the extras on the forums,
I figured it would be best to put it all in one location.
I did this for the Note 7 for a while as well, so here we go.
The S Note version included in this download is not the latest version but it is the last version that includes the Action Memo components.
The widget and extension have been tested and work seamlessly on my own device. I cannot guarantee that they will work on yours. I only found and hosted these to help not to support.
If you want support, call Sammy...
And as always, I cannot be held liable for the damage or malfunction of your device using these files,
you proceed at your own risk and remove my liability by continuing to the downloads portion of this post!

I only use the Action Memo

I have installed all of the apks and no action memo option for me on the Note FE with the Note 8 app ports.
The widget doesn't work either. I'll keep trying.
Thank you for compiling this for everyone!

Instead of "categories" i have "folders", and no search top right.
I have the build numbers that are in this thread and the snote is not updated.
EDIT: so I have the same widget you have, with the 5 icons up top. I dont have any notes so it says "no notes" which is assume should be correct in my instance.
I'm new to Sammy and the note 8 is my first ever device from Sammy, so im learning about things. Appreciate your patience.

Samsung High Contrast II theme

On my first setup of the phone, i was able to install and use Samsung's own High Contrast II theme, which is the best black theme that i used until now.
I was forced to reset my phone, and after that, logging in with the same Samsung account, i was not able anymore to find that theme.
I looked into all themes of Samsung, and there is no High contrast theme there.
Can someone please upload it here?
It was free, so i guess is no issue with that.
thanks in advance!
Do u wanna try the modded one ?
I posted it in s8+ forum
i will have a look, but i will prefer as well the original one if possible, with icons and everything.
thanks!

Yes .. or it is very similar .. i remember that it was named High Contrast II.
I have tried using that link, but i alaways get : item not available
It is really strange, as i had that the first time when i started configuring the phone, but not after a reset.
Where are the themes saved? maybe some one can upload it and share it.

That URL, from post #4, if opened with Samsung Themes, it should show it ... but it seems it is not available for Romania anymore .. which is strange, as it was.
It seems that in the last week, premium theme store was launched in Romania .. and since then, this theme is not available anymre for us.
As it is a free theme ... if someone can, please post it here (i do not know what is the path where theme APK is saved ..)
Thanks!
http://www.samsung.com/global/theme...m.samsung.High_contrast_theme_II&SITE_CODE=us To open this theme hold it and select open in another tab. After that it will ask you if you want to open it in your theme store press OK and it will bring you right to it
I have tried this, but to me it says that element is not available yet. Please try again later.
It is a bit strange, as it was available at the begging. If possible, can you please upload the app?

I have both Samsung High Contrast
installed on my phone.
I also tried to paste link to theme here, but give same message as you stated above.
Best is to search Theme Store for
High Contrast.
Search should show 2 x themes ?
The second theme Samsung "High Contrast. Sky Black" is according to my installed themes the same theme..? as High Contrast 2
Otherwise
Oxy_OS_Black by Lucas Kendi (free on Samsung Themes) is very close to High Contrast.
Just note this theme changes you navebar icons (quite nice)
See screenshots
Good luck
IT was at most popular themes in Samsung theme store. Rly strange that ppl can't find it. I'm still using it, rly hate that notifications are still white...

These are not root for Samsung bone stock. Need Substratum on your device and the Samsung add on, $1.99 I believe unless they've lowered it from when I purchased it, both from the Play Store.

Also, most of these will work except for the nav bar height. It will take some time as they're spread out all through the thread. These are for the S8+ and I'm using several on my Note 8, as I said all but the nav bar height should work.

Substratum can't do that yet, I have a couple of layers that can - one with blue and the other with red.
Are there any substratum themes that are free for our note 8?
theres a couple in here...https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/themes
So glad someone brought this up, as the only one I could find was Swift Dark. I chose the tab for Samsung devices and Swift Dark was my only option to purchase. Waste of money as it currently stands since my current theme dark high contrast from the would you believe it Samsung theme store works just as good if not better. Substratum is hyped up in imho or immature for the N8.
My take, rubbish.
Edit: shouldn't have said "rubbish" , but inadequate at this time.

I'm just using the samsung themes at this point; there are a few that are pretty nice, and until there is a BL unlock/full root for this phone, I wont bother with Substratum at this point..had it installed with a couple of the themes that supposedly work on this phone, but it borked gmail, play store and a couple of others, so off it went..
Its too bad, since I have bought around 20 or more subs themes in the past, so hopefully it will be fixed down the road.
This phone just came out, so its a matter of patience for now..

So glad someone brought this up, as the only one I could find was Swift Dark. I chose the tab for Samsung devices and Swift Dark was my only option to purchase. Waste of money as it currently stands since my current theme dark high contrast from the would you believe it Samsung theme store works just as good if not better. Substratum is hyped up in imho or immature for the N8.
My take, rubbish.

Yup. At this time, I only use it for changing my status bar and getting pixel UI settings
Always stays black if you install the ones you've updated with play store. Just install again in substratum

There are several working with Samsung now, in addition to the ones listed above. You can mix and match to make one of your own too.

When you mention working with Samsung, one still has to avoid selecting certain options during installation of the overlays right ? Meaning I cannot merely select all after choosing S8 in the pull down menu without running the risk of bootloops?
In summary, which options should one not check for installation for those you linked on your post? Or are the Samsung specific ones all bootloop free.? Cheers

I've used all, just select S8, except for the nav bar. I use another for that. Haven't had any bootloops and have been using them from day one. If you do have issues you just need to boot into safe mode and uninstall the overlay and you're back in business. The ones specifically for Samsung should be okay but the others probably not. Here's a new onr, I haven't tried it yet as I have mine setup just the way I like it.
