OK my droidx there was a phone icon in the recent call log and I believe the address book that I could tap to call the person. With the gs3 I have to open up the contact first and then hit the call button. Anyway to make it call directly from the contact list?

swiping to the right on the contact will call , to the left will open messaging.
I'm pretty sure this is on by default... if not you will have to enable it.
Oh fantastic that works great. Is there a post with other such tricks?

Nice find, thanks!
It pauses for about 1-2 seconds which is a little annoying - seems slow, but it's definitely better than clicking everywhere!
Is there any way to get the ICS dialer on here? (rather than using something like Go Dialer)

so if anyone watches vampire diaries,, klaus sends a picture text on his Gnote,
I CAN NOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO THAT
help is appreciated..
please and Thank you!!!!!
the episode was Season 3 episode 18 i think.. half way through..
he basically writes and clicks sends,, and the image got sent,, not a typed message.
so if he a word his handwriting would've shown as a picture rather then the typed word,
i have the note, and i would really love to be able to do that
There is a round about way.
In smemo write your message, then hit menu button, then share with and messaging.

Use GO SMS Pro as your messaging app. It's built in.. I use it all the time.

doesn't really work that well
so when i tried that, it sent them a link to a website, which had to be clicked in order to view it.. so that isn't working.. any other suggestions?

if you want to use a pre-existing pic, just press the attach button (its a paper clip on the left side of the text input window), and choose from the options below
....or you can use the note to take a screen capture by holding the pen button and long pressing the screen, then draw/write on it and share via GO SMS Pro
.
ok i get that, but is there a way to free write and send it quickly? without going through allot of buttons,, is there a quick and easy way,, say i wanna just text with mms?
It depends on the phone. If they are a GO SMS user, they receive it directly, otherwise it goes as a link.
I guarantee that Klaus was using GO SMS on his Note. I saw the episode.

I'm using CM9 and during a call, there are no options to mute, hang up, hold, or anything else in notification tray. This is the one thing I loved about the Samsung variant of Android. Do I simply need to install a dialer app from Google Play to get this functionality, or is there a feature in CM9 to enable this?
Can anyone help me get this functionality? Thanks in advance.
What would be the point all those buttons are on the in call screen in ICS?

If you are multitasking outside of the phone app while in speaker phone, isn't it pretty quick to pull down the notification tray and click the phone so the phone app opens (which has all the options), then just switch back to what you were doing? Doesn't even take 5 seconds to go from browser to phone, back to browser...
Although it would be a nice feature, it is not a necessary one.

To start with, how about posting questions in q &a? Thread moved to q&a.
My friend at work has the note II on at&t. When he gets a text a little widget or notification pops up on his lock screen. A pretty cool little feature, but I cant get it to work on my phone. Did verizon disable this feature? Thanks
you need to find out which application he is using to handle his text messages......there are several. I believe handcent SMS allows for a pop up message for text messages.

Are you referring to the notification bubbles on the lockscreen with the number of missed called/texts, etc? If so, I have a fix.

There's handsent, chompsms and even SMS Popup that does that.
If you want the bubbles on the lockscreen, delete /system/csc/customer.xml

what else is changed in deleting this? Or what does deleting this do? I open it up and see stuff to do with mms and bookmarks.

This worked, I now have the bubbles. The problem is evertime I receive a new notification I get a pop up over the lockscreen saying "swipe over the icon to view the missed event". I have to press ok each time to make it go away.
Anyone else seeing this and how can I make it stop nagging me
Thanks

You need to be root. I did it with super manager ( its free) but you can try root explorer. Dont forget to change the permission from r/o ( read only) to r/w ( read and write).

I think it's a pretty good step...
I like how you can select the manner in which you would like to communicate: hangouts/sms/google voice, which gets me wondering why they're saying Google Voice isn't integrated.
One thing I don't really like, is that it opens a new chat/hangout even if you're on 1 contact. I think it would be cool if you carried the conversation with the same person within 1 window regardless of method (sms/hangouts/gv), but that's just me.

Looks nice, but I'd love to see them add a widget or two. I've gotten used to my messaging thread list taking up a home screen, which is very convenient.

So I downloaded the new 2.3 APK, and I didn't get the Google Voice integration of texts and voicemail. I do have the ability to send and receive calls, but there was no prompt nor an option in settings to get texts and voicemail. Am I missing something?

I just downloaded it last night. Was never a big fan until now. I love the integrated dialer that you can use wifi to make calls. It's pretty cool. As far as your prompt, try clearing data and opening it up again as that was the first screen I saw - asking if I wanted to turn on sms. I hit yes and it imported all of my messages right from the stock app, which I promptly froze...
I got that, its now my default SMS app, but the google voice texts aren't integrated like it should be. Other are reporting being able to send texts via hangouts as your google voice number, but the only option I have is at&t.
Some are saying its by invitation only right now. No invite means the option in settings will be hidden

Oh... I got it now. Sorry, misunderstood you. Yeah, the only option I have for sms is my normal number.
Hey I figured it out. You need to have Google voice installed. Then hamgouts asks if you want to integrate google voice SMS. Say yes. Them there is a new setting in hamgouts SMS that allows you to default send from your phone number, google voice number or SMART RESPONSE which is whichever number you last used for that contact...

Mine works as intended without Google Voice installed.

Probably a bug with hangouts, but notice the capacitive buttons still respond when in a call. That is, when the prox sensor gets tripped, capacitive buttons should be disabled, but they're not. Doesn't seem like the screen is shutting off entirely. On another phone, in a dark room, I can still seem some backlight.
Well excuse me if this is in the wrong section. But this problem is present in every phone with kikat. The during call dialer is horrible. I can't search for contacts and I can't remove a number! How is everyone fine with this, also is there any workaround...
While in a call push the home button. Call is moved to notification pull down and you can do what you want with you're phone.
