Good afternoon everyone,

In the spirit of improving our phone, one enthousiastic member @shaikhsumair99 started working on Multiwindow.
At first I was a bit sceptic, but I decided to join him.

In this thread we'll keep everyone informed about the Multiwindow and eventually the download for it will come.
To mods: Don't delete this post please! We want to combine forces and keep people updated about it, as the download will not appear in 24 hours, I beg you do not delete this, cuz we're trying our best to contribute something

An exact changelog of every step taken will be posted here.
If anyone wants to help, you're welcome to join!

Progress has started.

Actually when we add flashbarservice.apk to system/app eventually MW toggle appears replacing the sync toggle at the end...
After searching for some hours in the sqlite editor (available on play) I've found that in settings provider many things are missing...
But by default MW switch is enabled so I can somewhat confirm that MW is not a kernel related feature...
I was keen on sharing my findings hope it was helpful...

It was helpfull for sure!
But the toggle doesn't have to be replacing Sync toggle, that could be simplier by adding a line into SystemUI/res/drawables/arrays
If you add one line in that the toggle will be added, instead of replacing another one.

OK ppl !
You got me interested into this topic again ....
Some one pass me the framework.jar, multiwindow.jar,android.policy.jar and services.jar also the flashbarservice.apk from galaxy grand duos ..
We r going to take multiwindow from grand (for some reason...which i cant explain right nowand yes it is a firmware specific feature not kernel related issue at all and plz write your firmware somewhere coz it helps ...mine is xxlqe )make sure the above mentioned apps are deodexed
U can take it from Bali boxer's ROM(make sure u download the deodexed version cause his ROM is in odexed format too) in galaxy grand duos development

please note -

i am on a low speed connection and hence I can't download the ROM(a big sorry for asking all those files)....
I can only help u people with these files otherwise please don't expect anything from me...
