Hey guys

Had a Galaxy S4 for a while and got the Note 4 recently.

I actually really liked Handsfree mode on it for getting text messages and whatnot in the car. I also liked how it greeted me everytime I got in the car (had it auto-load with bluetooth)

However I still used Waze and other apps on my phone while it was running.

Car Mode for the Note 4 with Lollipop seems to take over the entire screen. I can't do anything else while it runs.

I still want to use it, as I like how it reads out texts and then asks for a response.

However, is there a hack or other app that will let me stop it from taking over the screen and have it run in the background?? I am rooted btw.

Secondly, I wish I could get that greeting back!

Thanks
