Is that for real?

If so then that awesome I read that it still experimental the software the developer has designed, how is everything after the changes to the third column?

Fine though. there is a slight bug where you can't disable 3 rows of tiles.

Is this if you upgrade to GDR3 or can it be used for all version of WP8?

Only for Interop-Unlocked Samsung ATIV S unfortunately.

I have ativ s as far as i know its not interop unlocked im on 8.1 gdr3 through developers app program. Is this a feature if i wait long enough i can get with full release of gdr3? If not ill interop but will have to take a lot of time and effort to research before i do it.

This is awesome news. Gonna look into this when I can. We're moving this week so probably not for a few days at least but still. This is fantastic.

Hi, nice feature. Does it need Windows Phone 8 SDK? I've removed the SDK for a while because it enables Hyper-V and installs Virtual Hub effectively breaking my IPv6 addressing.
Will I be able to install the XAP from SD card via Store app? My device is dev+interop unlocked.

Works great! I just used the registry editor in SamWP8 Tools app to enable it.

What Key/Value should be modified? I mean, if it's done by editing registry settings only, this can be done solely with Interop unlock helper app.

Enable 3 rows of tiles on your ATIV S with this registry tweak! (GDR3 only)



Code:
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\OEM\Start]
"ScreenSize"="dword:000001"

Works fine here. Thank you for making this possible!

That registry tweak is the only thing needed?? So if I interop unlock, that tweak is all I need to do?

This only makes me want it on my Lumia 1020, that much more.

I'm the developer of WP8 version of WPH Tweaks and the one who found the registry key. If you have any questions, you can ask me

For those manually editing the registry, please note that there are 3 possible values, 0 is for small screen (default), 1 is for medium screen and 2 is for large screen. I have not tried the differences between 1 and 2.

This might be the only time I have been jealous of a Samsung phone!

WP 8.1 comes in 2014, you can not be on 8.1. GDR3 is 8.0.10512 so you are on that, not 8.1.

Im on the fence about flashing my device to GDR2 so I can get GDR3 and then this. I just hate the fact I need to instal EVERYTHING and waste basically a full day to my phone (ridiculous when you think of it really)

A question for you who have this enabled... Are the smallest tiles big enough so your not accidentally hitting wrong tiles, or the medium tiles big enough to have information on them and still easy to read them in normal viewing?

I have all the files downloaded, but Im hesitant...
