If you're running a rooted Galaxy Note II or Galaxy S 4 and want easy access to some things that normally require manually editing system files, we've got the app for you. It's called Note 2 Hidden Settings, and does exactly what you'd expect: offers access to otherwise hidden system settings.


***REQUIRES ROOT***


This app enables you to easily change hidden settings on your Note 2 (or other Samsung device), such as:


• Adding a shutter sound on/off option to the camera
• Turning on Infinite Scroll mode on the launcher and app drawer
• Extending how many contacts you can join together



These modifications normally can only be made by manually editing a system file, which can be dangerous and very inconvenient. This app makes the process quick and painless.


Features:


• Shows which options have already been enabled, even by a different app or manually
• Creates an automatic backup in case something goes wrong
• Nice looking Holo interface
• Supports devices which implement feature.xml or an others.xml file


Note: App is not compatible with AOSP roms.


Tested devices:


• Verizon Note 2
• International Note 2
• Galaxy S4
• International Note 1


If the app isn't working or if you have any other questions, please email the developer and a fix will be on the way.

Google's latest Android release, version 4.4 KitKat, is anticipated to be available this month alongside the upcoming LG Nexus 5 so that as we are nearing the state announcement, the leaks are shown.


According to leaked image, the Android 4.4 KitKat is going to be featuring new location settings menu with a simplified layout. Renamed "location mode" the new settings entry will offer three different modes rather than the currently available multiple selectors for every location tool.


However, these are merely speculations based on the leaked image. We are not sure how real this is, you should take it as a grain of salt for now.
