Hello, I have the note 4 on Verizon, and realized the settings menu is list, not the tabbed view that I prefer.. There's not an option in settings to change it, but in nova you can trigger an activity within settings to launch to what looks like a beta tabbed view.. It looks incomplete or something, anyone know a better method?

There's no difference in Settings between TouchWiz and Nova - they're both launchers and Settings is a different app. In Nova, you can have a tabbed view in the app drawer, if that's what you're talking about. You can't do that in TouchWiz.

In the device settings, the default is set to list, but on other carriers you can get a tabbed view of the device (system) settings. In nova, you put a shortcut of an activity of the tabbed mode settings app on the home screen, and it launches a tabbed view. I'll post pics to help explain

Show us a screen shot of your setting menu. It should look like this.

This is what my default settings looks like, and in the settings I only have edit quick settings and help, no "view as.."

Thanks for your intent, but as I previously mentioned, Verizon disabled that I guess.. So I'm looking for a workaround.

Sorry, didn't realize that's what you were trying to say. I read it as you couldn't find the option. My bad!

Wonder the same thing. Instead of removing their bloat, they remove something that people actually use.

I agree, Verizon needs to do a little more thinking and less conspiring on what they can do to mess with customers.. ;)

If only they had better coverage where I live.. I'd get spotty 3G and okay 2G ha. I'll stick with Verizon while I can :p

That's why it took me FOREVER to leave Verizon and go to T-Mobile. But, now, in my area, my coverage on TMo is exactly what I used to get from Verizon and my bill is half as much. Very happy defector here! haha.
