Wow, what did i find on the note 8? A secrete maybe - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

On Gallaxy Note8. go to settings then go to About phone then scroll down to Android version then tap 4 or 5 times repeatedly fast it will bring up a Big letter N on that letter N tap fast 4 or 5 times repeatedly and then touch and hold the N a little symbol will appear below the N a circle with a line through it and then touch the N and hold till another symbol appears as a cats face,, what does this do? Have you guys seen this?, please let me know if you have any ideals what it is turning on, maybe a secret to unlock all the mysteries of the world,, hopely,lol, thnx guys.

Holding it makes a cat face appear, holding it again makes a stop sign like symbol... My guess is that it's enabling and disabling something, no clue what though... Good job finding it though. EDIT! It adds a tile to your quick tiles, a small dish that gives you the option to place food on it... Which I'd imagine leads to some game somehow...

It creates a quick tile icon that you can add the drop down menu. You can leave snacks out on the plate and the cat will come and eat it.
I'm allergic to cats so I leave this off.

Its a cat collector thing. it adds a quick settings tile you can put "food" out on a dish and cats will come. Not really a secret.

It's an old thing Google has been doing. In older versions of Android you would get different and almost impossible to play mini games.
It's just a fun nerd thing
Now they changed the game type hehe.
I haven't tried but thanks for sharing I will try it asap.

It's a catlog

Sorry mate, you haven't discovered the 'holy grail'.
This is well known, it's called an 'Easter egg' and is a sort of quirky present from the developer's.
It changes with each new version of 'Android'.

Indeed it is.

that is the Google easter egg that is embedded in every version of Android, sometimes it opens a cheap video game like on lolipop and jellybean

Since you found that, go into quick settings, and add Empty dish. Choose a food, and sometime later, you'll receive a notification that a cat has arrived. You can name it. Make sure you fill the now empty dish again, to get another cat (if you're that crazy).

It's not working on my Verizon Note 8. I get the N, but I tap and hold it and nothing happens.

That's kind of funny and sad.
But only sad because I remember the jelly beens would fly all over the place. They come a long way for sure though.

Tap on the N 11 times. But on the 11th time, hold it in. A cat will appear on the bottom. In the setting now you will find it on the bottom to add to your notification bar.

Crazy...pffft...i have 29 cats!

[APP] zMooth gesture app to replace keys

Just finished publishing zMooth gesture app in android market, it will allow you to use gestures to mimic back, home, menu and power (Pro version) hardware keys.
I wrote this app to be unobtrusive by using minimum amount of screen space but at the same time be very easy and intuitive to use. If you use for couple of days you will understand how easy it is to use.
after you install the app you will see a blue area at the bottom of the screen, swipe left on this area to go back, swipe right for menu and gesture a up-arrow(^) for home.
I highly suggest that you try using different gesture length and speed, it is very sensitive at default settings.
I picked the gestures which will have least conflict/collision so that when you gesture you don't have to worry that it might fire the wrong action. The aim was to make them error resistant and build user confidence in gesturing.
you don't have to do complete swipe or draw arrow symbol correctly, just a small quick gesture will work.
The swipes don't have to be perfectly horizontal, you can do them at an angle.
Small swipe/gesture will also work, they don't have to do be as long as they were shown in screenshots.
I didn't pick any complicated gestures because back, home and menu should be achievable with out giving a second thought, after couple of days the fingers should move with least effort and finger flexion and MUST be easier than pressing buttons.
Android market link
Need help or something is not working?
Support is built-in to the app, "Preferences->Help" will resolve most issues. If not resolved just contact me through "Preferences->Help->Contact Support" and I will be happy to resolve any issues. You can also use browser for FAQ / Common Issues for more info.

Sorry for the quality, I never posted videos of phone screen's before, didn't know how difficult it is to capture these screen's on video.
Omg! I was dreaming about app like this
This is my second HD2, and I'm a little paranoic about using screen-off and back key
Big thx.
Hmmm, I can't set Display Height below 20. If I set less than 20, turn off the app, this always back to 20 value.
Secondly, would be great to able to set position of the bar (not only the bottom).
klusek1985: I personally never turn off the app so never noticed it. I set min as 20 so people don't accidentally make it too small. is 20 being too obtrusive? what lcd_density are you using?.
going to sleep will be back tomorrow sometime.
I use HD2, so it is WVGA. Density is 240 (NexusOne rom)
Imo 20 value is too large for me. Maybe you can unlock full spectrum of values able to set ?
I understand an option like change color of bar etc. will be avaible on future versions ?
Again, good work
Great job man!!! I always think pressing the back button is a very extra movement... and you just save the world!!! ha ha.... thanks man for your effort! Appreciate it. I think this app is cool...
First impression is really good, I would like to see some features as:
- Ability to move the zone to anywhere on the display
- change the colour of the zone / change colour of gesture draw
- make the zone / gesture draw transparent (top priority reqeust from me )
- set the size of the "popup" box / disable bigger box?
- disable draw area if application X is running (like widgetlocker - dont need this nice app when the screen is locked) (high priority for me again )
- maybe later, add custom draws? draw a square and launch application X
If these feature will come in the future... well what should I say, that would be awesome
Really nice!
Edit: Cant find it on market yet
Edit2: Bug found:
When chaning the height I have to reenable the app otherwise I get an error "error executing gesture, please restart app"
Sometimes also happens when device gets into standby and wakes up.. (need to confirm)
Was planning some of the features you mentioned already. Thanks for feedback. App is in market now, updated the OP.
I installed from Market, and I can set 10 (size) now
Thanks for this work, it's usefull, but i've a problem with the height, i want 10, in setting it says 10, but when i do the first gesture on my home, it come back with 50 of height, and in setting, it show me 10 ???
P.S: in green, my home would be happy

I will try fixing the height issue today. (hopefully I will get some free time at work).
It's like a dream come true! Thank you! Please keep updating this!
This is really handy!
But I would like to have home on gesture up, instead of having to draw an arrow.
Left:back
right:menu
up:home
Heck, if there's time. Why not let us create ur own gestures for app-launching ect?
And transparancy would be nice, but I see that's already been suggested.
Even if you decide not to do this, I think I'll keep this app on my phone.

you don't have to really draw the complete arrow (or left/right swipe), just do quick gesture up and down. up arrow is like home symbol(like roof of your house).
try to decrease length/time of gesture and see how sensitive and easy it is. I put long lines in screen shots just to show for beginners.
version 1.0.4 pushed to market, hopefully fixes height issues that you guys are having.
Thanks for the update, now, i can have height on 10 ...
Sorry, but in green, it's possible ?
Great application, fast and smooth. Only I can't lock on sense rom...
Very nice app. Just one suggestion. Isn't it more intuitive to swipe up to access menu? Usually the menu will slide up from bottom of screen so I think it's more natural to swipe up?
Awesome App, i was tired of pressing the home button on my hd2.
On an hd2 running typhoons 3.0.1
^ goes to home screen
Left does nothing
Right brings up the menu
Zmooth 1.04
ya since menu slides up gesture should be slide up, you can actually slide up inclined as shown in below screenshot to pull up the menu.
I picked the gestures which will have least conflict/collision so that when you gesture you don't have to worry that it might fire the wrong action. The aim was to make them error resistant and dependable.

Others have reported similar issues that sometimes go away with a reflash of the ROM you are using. If that doesn't work try a different ROM (or more likely a different Kernel)
try this
Go to setting - applications - manage application - All - samsung keypad - clear data
Setting - language n keyboard - samsung keypad - Reset all setting (last option)
Hope should work

Try to use other Key Boards on Market..
Try Clearing Data of Stock Samsung Keyboard
i had problem too with Stock key board.. its process consumed around 100MB of RAM
i cleaned data and it came down to 20-25MB
ALSO TRY TO TURN OFF CHARACTER PREVIEW... I got my problem solved with this
thank you
Thank you very much guys ~ !

mine something similar to yours. but mine just hang all of the sudden. I'm like typing typing and it suddenly BOOM ! HANG ~! and mine hang quite often. But nowadays i found a solution, whenever it hang/ i can't type anything. I'll just have to leave it there for 1 min or 2 mins and then it will be back to normal, or i can just keep on spam any key until it appears on the screen

Here's one on how to speed up the Note 4...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAXtjgrfgEY
I have this little trick
I used a SGN2 with 3 frotal buttons. Menu--Home--Back.
Anytime I need my screen doesn't turn off I pressed menu button, if the menu appears well I pressed again menu button and screen was still turn on.
Now my SGN4 has this 3 frontal buttons Recent apps--Home--Back
If U use some kind of apps (for previous android versions) you will find that menu is hidden, and not all the time the 3 points menu shows up, then WHERE'S MENU BUTTON?
Well the trick is this
If you PRESS and HOLD "recent apps" button you will activate MENU BUTTON.
Try it
I'm loving the copy text feature of the s-pen. Sweet
Sweet Note 4
SixAxis controller works a charm with any game that supports native android game controller - GTA:SA, RR3, PicaSim are working for me, haven't tried much else.
The note makes for a pretty decent portable gaming platform.
You can register up to 6 fingerprints.
When setting up fingerprint 1, scan a finger 10 times then hit register and scan a different finger for the next ten. Hit done.
Repeat for fingerprint 2 and 3.

OK I hope this makes sense. On my Sprint note 4 you have your screen and then at the bottom you have the captive buttons as well as the physical home button (we all have that) now if you are on your home screen and want to slide to the next screen either right or left.... slide your finger on the black line (bottom of my screen) no matter if its across the whole bar or only part of it. I have attached a pic I got off the net to show what I'm talking about. I hope other carriers have this enabled as is so easy to flip between screens. I've only found it to work on the home screen though.

Oh, you mean the home button shortcut gesture - thanks, I hadn't heard that referred to as a hotkey before.
Still, on my stock 5.1 phone that gesture shows as a temporary white circle as long as my finger is still pressed down on the home button (waiting for me to drag upwards and get the shortcut list) - not sure why the OP would be seeing a grey circle or why it's remaining on the screen, aside from a bug.

The "Sticky Soft Keys," do you mean? I thought that was highlights around the soft keys, but could be wrong.
Thinking about it, that home button shortcut seems dedicated to Google Now in Lollipop (i.e., I was used to it being configurable in TouchWiz) - I tried disabling Google Now as an experiment, but holding your finger down on the Home button still brings up the white circle overlay.
It's almost as if that overlay is staying resident for the OP after possibly being triggered (as a guess) - even though it's inexplicably grey on his phone - so, I wonder if holding down the Home soft key for a few seconds and then letting go might make it go away.
@Davesssssss : if you hold down the Home soft key, does a different circle overlay appear? If not, can you swipe up and get a prompt for opening the Google Now cards? Going back to a home screen, is the grey circle still there?
This is all just testing to determine if that circle is related to the Home button, but thought it might be interesting to try.

So, you hold the Home button and swipe up, then it goes away temporarily? But, it shows. up again how. much later, please?
Are you on stock 5.1 with no root and locked bootloader?
I'm still leaning towards an app that is somehow colluding with the Google Now launcher via Home button but that's probably do to my lack of knowledge, most likely.

Bottom corner sensitivity

Hi,
I got my P30 Pro couple of days ago, so far everything is pretty smooth, but one thing really bothers me:
The sensitivity of the bottom right corner; I'm using SwiftKey with no dedicated emoji key (=you have to long press the enter key), and 3 times out of 4 it doesn't take the long press.
And my long press duration is 200ms...
Anyone having the same issue??
I think the corners are less sensitive by default to prevent accidental touches. Due to it having a curved screen, it's easy to activate app icons on the bottom left and right with your palm. On my s10 plus, i always accidentally launch apps which are situated in the bottom right. Never had this issue on the p30 pro so i guess it's better this way.

I have an emoji key on SwiftKey.
Look down to the left of space bar.
Maybe it is due to your theme or setup.
Plus when I type stuff it offers emoji too.

7:50 I think we all have the same problem I check it I have less sensitivi on bottom center and it works fine when You turn on in "programer mode" show touch and 1 more option to show data about touch when You turn it on touch start work fine. Can You check it ?
I am having screen sensitivity issues in general with this phone, i am finding i am having to press the home button a few times for it to register sometimes and also when i unlock the phone when i have notifications, i am sometimes having to press the notifications a few times before they open also.
I am using still on firmware .124 so not sure if when i get an update if it will fix that?

I'm on 153 and it's not better
screen sensitivity on my P30 pro is great, even with the tempered glass on.

I posted a similar topic, but got no response. Mine seems to be unresponsive on the bottom left part.

Hi Shaunydub,
Thank you, It's indeed the way i set up my keyboard, but it's done on purpose, I've always used SwiftKey like this and I'm used to it.
But I guess, I will eventually have to switch to the dedicated key...
As far as Emoji suggestions, it's a different option, I have that too

I didn't notice it on the left side as the only long press I'm using is on the right side. But I guess it is the same...
I'm pretty sure it's indeed a software prevention for not activating button while holding the device, but yes my question was more does it bother someone else than me?
I don't remember the version I got from the box but yes updating to 153 didn't change anything for that...

It didn't happen before.... started happening roughly around 2-3 weeks ago, and it's the same on 153.
Does it improve if you disable the feature 'Accidental touches' or whatever it's called. It could be worth a try..

If you're talking about "Mistouch prevention", unfortunately it doesn't help as it's only blocking the screen to be turned on when the proximity sensor detects something like when it's in your pocket.
