Some Awesome Hidden Secret Features of Samsung Galaxy Mobile Phones

All these hidden secret tricks will also work in other
    Google Android smartphones.



Today in this topic, I'm going to share some hidden secret features
present in almost all Samsung Galaxy* series mobile phones. These
features might be very useful for many Samsung smartphone users.


I have successfully tested these hidden secret tricks in Samsung Galaxy
S2 Plus, S3 and S4 mobile phones and they should also work in the latest Samsung Galaxy S5 mobile phone. I'm sure these tricks will also work in other Galaxy mobile phone models.

So without wasting time let me share the secret features:

   [TIP 1] Two Finger Swipe to Reveal All Quick Setting Buttons in
    Notification Panel*

We know about the *Notification Panel* which is displayed at the top of
our mobile phone screen. It shows various useful stuffs such as current
time, battery level, network status, etc. When we swipe the notification
panel down, it shows some *quick setting buttons* (also known as *toggle
buttons*) such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Sound, Mobile Data, Sync, etc.

Did you know that if you swipe the notification down using two fingers, it shows all quick setting buttons? Just use the two finger swipe down
trick and you'll have immediate access to all quick setting buttons.



    [TIP 2] Direct Access to Common Settings Using Quick Setting Buttons*

Did you know that, you can launch a quick setting button's setting page by long pressing on that button? Open notification panel and long press on any quick setting button (toggle button) and it'll immediately launch
its main settings page.

For example, long press on Wi-Fi button and it'll launch Wi-Fi settings
page.

So you can use the quick setting buttons as a direct shortcut to launch
their settings page along with using them as a simple toggle button.

    [TIP 3] Direct Access to S Voice Application Using Home Button*
*S Voice* is a built-in application present in Samsung Galaxy mobile
phones which works like a personal assistant. You just need to speak and
it'll answer your questions and perform various tasks.

Did you know, you can launch S Voice application directly by pressing
the *Home* button twice? Just double tap on the Home button present on
your mobile phone and it'll launch S Voice app directly.

If you want to disable this action, launch S Voice using double tap on
Home button, then open its settings and uncheck "*Open via the home
key*" option.

*PS:* You can also long press on Home button to access Task Manager
screen which shows a list of recent apps and allows you to clear the
recent apps list.

    [TIP 4] Direct Access to Google Search Using Menu Button*

Did you know that you can launch Google Search by long pressing on the *Menu* button (left button) present on your mobile phone? Just long press on the Menu button and it'll immediately launch Google Search page.
