Hey,
Anyone know a remote control app that'll allow me to control my Sony tv via ir? Can't seem to find any that actually works.

What about the one that comes with the tablet, watchon?

Hah, duh.. I guess the eyes are the first you get blind on.. Kind of thought that it required a set top box, but it works fine just selecting a random one during setup and removing it afterwards.. Nice with the remote in the status menu. Thanks

Try also Peel Smart Remote, works well.

Hi all,
I love my GT and the keyboard dock it came with (plus all the shortcuts). I use them nearly everyday together for taking notes in class, but I HATE that holding the backspace key will end up deleting everything I typed. I wish it would just continously delete until I let go, like the stock keyboard. Is there any way to remove this "feature" or make Swype or the stock keyboard the default for the dock?
Changing it everytime I dock my tablet is annoying and every now and again when the screen turns off it just turns back to the samsung keypad.
TIA

Ever tried SwiftKey X Tablet? It seems to do everything you mentioned so far, some say it has dock support but I wouldn't be too sure. You might wanna test it, the app is free ofcourse. If you feel you like it, buy it

Is there an app/widget (for root or stock) that can activate the profiles created in samsung tectile app? I don't want to have to have another tectile just to return to a normal profile, would be fine doing it from a widget. Currently I go through the app to return to a normal, kind of a pita...

I don't know about an app to trigger a tectile, but you could use Tasker to change what you want.
Steep learning curve, but incredibly powerful.

I don't know why but I read the title as "testicle." What the hell is tectile? I've never heard of it.
Edit: Ah, nvm. I did a quick google. Believe it or not I've had 3 different devices with NFC and have never even used it once.
I'll give Tasker a try. I am alright with learning curves. It looks like I can create a "normal" profile and just activate that through a widget. Thanks for the response.

NFC task launcher can set the NFC tags to have 2 tasks, I. El. One to mute sound, then tap again to turn sound back on.

Hey guys. Just thought I'd see what everyone uses their multi app Windows for. I think it's a great idea but I can never think of 2 apps I'd use at the same time.
I turned mine off because i dont like the tab thats on the side of the phone. Texting and browsing is one good use for it. Easy to copy and paste links between the two. Although its pretty easy to swap between the two using the home key too.

I usually use mines for copying information into a notepad / memo.
YouTube and a browser bc YT stops when its in the background and with a mod'd YouTube apk, I can listen with the screen turned off
I haven't used it once, the phone switches windows so fast

Student GMail -> calendar. I get notified of school meetings and stuff all the time. Multiwindow makes it very easy to copy over the information into my Google calendar.
But that's really my only use for it. It is nice for this purpose, but I could live without.
Copying links/addresses or other information to a text is a good use, as is from any app to a note taking app.

On TW if you hold the back softkey button while multi-window is enabled it hides the bar until you want it again. Simply hold the back button once more for it to show. =)

Custom ROM that enables multiwindow for all apps or root with multiwindow manager.

i usually use it when balancing accts. i like reconciling manually since i always seem to get double entries doing it "automatically". ff up top and anmoney at the bottom. works better with a tablet though.

I have to agree, aside from the cool factor of actually being able to do it, I have not found a practical use for it.
I use it when copy/pasting login credentials from LastPass.

Cool thanks guys
I have used it a couple of times to text while I watch a movie or video.
Before I had the phone, I thought I would use the multi-window a lot and was excited about it.
Tried using it a few times and it just wasn't clicking for me.
I think if I could incorporate my apps with it or if it were more intuitive, maybe I would use it. I don't know.
As of now I have it disabled.
I would like a better app switcher, though. Something like Zephyr for the jailbroken iphone.

I'm new to these forums obviously so I'd like to take a start at sharing probably one of my favorite Note 2 apps. I normally wouldn't post a thread like this but using this app has made my experiences with the N2 SO much better that I just have to share And heck, maybe we can turn this into a favorite app thread.
It's called ShareKM and it works great, check it out

This app is spectacular. Pairing over bluetooth with a desk dock has already changed the way I use my phone at work. I usually listen to music from my phone so now I can just drag my mouse to the left and interact with the phone, even control volume with the mouse scroll wheel and play/pause with the Function keys on my keyboard.
Great find! Everyone in the office is pretty jealous of this today.
yea ever heard of Mobizen?
Hey everyone. I'm still pretty new to Tasker. I've only been actively using it for about 2-3 weeks. I think I've got a pretty good handle on it, but there's something I can't seem to figure out how to do. I know that by default, Android doesn't allow any app to modify another's notification in the pull-down menu but if I could get take to simulate a tap in the upper right corner where that button is to clear all notifications, wouldn't that do the trick? How so do you get take to do that? I read the was a shell command that you could run that was basically "input tap x-coords y-coords". Tried that but it didn't work. Any ideas?

run shell -> input tap x y
x y are the coordinates (activate them to show on screen in developer menu in settings)
is that what you've tried?
Yeah. And it didn't do anything. I even tried different coordinates thinking that maybe I was trying to use coordinated that were too close to the border or something

Welcome to Tasker. As far as what I'm trying to have done with it and my notifications, read the original post. It explains what my goals are
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 4
Tried and tested, run shell -> input tap x y -> ensure use root is ticked, I have been using multiple tasks with this exact command
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4
Finally figured it out. It was all in the details. I didn't use root and I also had the word 'Input' with a capital 'I' instead of lower case. I guess it has to be all lower case
