This may sound a little trivial to some people, but the percentage sign on the calculator app seems to work differently to many standard calcutors I've used before e.g. on a standard calculator enter:
10*17.5%+ (would give 11.75 correct).
some other calculators you could even use 10+17.5% would also give the correct answer, but using HD2 app using:
10*17.5%+= (gives an error)
10*17.5%= (gives 1.75 correct, but you then have to +10 to get the full answer which is not good if your starting figure is not an easy number like 10 )
10+17.5%= (gives the wrong answer)
Sorry for the moan.
we've had this discussion before. I assume you are flipping the phone to landscape to get the % symbol, right? and i assume the wrong answer you are getting is 1.75?
In portrait mode the calculator acts like a business calculator, , in landscape it acts like a scientific calculator.
All scientific calculators would give 1.75 because what it is seeing is
10 x (1/100 x 17.5) ((mathematically, 17.5% is the same as saying 1/100x17.5, or 17.5/100)
= 10 x (0.01 x 17.5)
= 10 x 0.175
= 1.75
To do the sum you are doing in portrait, (adding VAT, are you?) use 10 x 1.175
to remove vat do 10 / 1.175
To do it in landscape, as you discovered, you would use 10+10x17.5% (personally I would use 10+(10x17.5%) for clarity, but thats just habit)
10+10x17.5% reads as "Ten plus 17.5 percent of ten"
Heres another one for you , , in portrait mode, type ' 2 + 3 x 4' answer 20
now do teh same sum in landscape mode, , , , , answer 14!, , , good eh?
Its because a scientific calculator follows mathematical rules that mean multiplication is perfiormed before addition, which is why in maths you would put (2+3)x4 to get 20, whereas a business calculator calculates as you go, so when you press the x it adds 2+3 automatically.
Many thanks for your reply.
I totally understand all the forumulas but it just seems a long way round to get a simple percentage, especially when compared to using a normal calculator such as a Casio.
hehe, yeap, and if there was a % button in portrait mode, it would probably work like you expected, sadly there isn't.
Hi there,
Can anyone pls tell me if there is any financial calculator for HD2. Many thanks in advance.

It's way too basic.
No undo/redo.
No automatic cloud backup.
No selection tool.
No thickness setting for the pen.
Unable to create separate notebooks.
Unable to insert text.
Those are just the basics that I found to be missing, but it really lacks so much. S Note is fantastic and came free with our phones. :thumbup:

Im a note freak...and from a note creativity standpoint this is #1 for Note2.
Hi guys,
just my humble opinion on the essential apps that might greatly enhance your Note 10.1 '14 experience:
Note 10.1 '14 A P P - E S S E N T I A L S
- MyScript Calculator (Complex calculations via S-Pen, 100x better recognition than SNote)
- Stylus Beta (Alternative to the original keyboard recognition very innovative)
- GMD Gesture Control & GMD SPen Control (Customizable SPen gestures and actions)
- Multi Windows Manager (Multiwindow capability to all apps)
- ezPDF Reader (PDF editor)
- Papyrus (Simple notes, no bloat, great performance, erase with your finger, PDF/PNG Export, Cloud-Sync, touch-pressure-sensitivity)
- Quickoffice (duh)
- Aldiko (IMHO the best ebook/pdf viewer)
- Viral (Enhanced youtube player, choose the real video resolutions)
- YouTube Remote (duh)
- Autodesk Sketchbook Pro
- Autodesk Ink
- Photoshop Touch
Please post your additional must-have apps, maybe with a few words describing their added-value.

Quick Office? Try it with a Bluetooth keyboard in the spreadsheet function. Try Lecture Notes.

+1 for LecutureNotes
Pen window launcher, to add any app to pen window and start them without air command.
4 way multiwindow (and you may skip pen window launcher because you now can run any app in a small window).
SPenBoard switcher, to switch to stylus beta when pen is out.
Also Moon Reader Pro is a useful app to view/read books with htm format.
Office Suite Pro is as nice as Quickoffice.
Office Suite is better than Quick Office.

anybody wanna post up a video of some of these apps? That would be helpful...
Why Sketchbook Pro? Is it different with the pre-installed Sketchbook for Samsung?
Lmt Launcher is a must have....

For me, most useful apps have been:
Fx file explorer: easy and user friendly but powerful.
Titamium backup : certainly ess for someone like me that change the rom every week! !
Colornote: I tried many note keeping apps, for me this was most useful.
Navitel and viber and of course xposed module with wanam to customize multiwindow apps.
Which "Multi Windows Manager (Multiwindow capability to all apps)" works well on our Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition (SM-P601). Can i get the link to play store...... Thanks
Does anyone know if you can get bigger work space with Evernote? I find the workspace to be too small. The working space for 1 page in like LectureNotes are much bigger but LectureNotes lacks the option to transform handwriting into text.
