Video Chat for Kids? - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Themes and Apps

Hello. I'm getting ready to go on a business trip for a while and thought it'd be nice to video chat w/ my kids (6/8 yrs old). They both have their own Samsung Tab 2 7". Can anyone recommend a video manager with child controls?

Skype and fring , i really never try any app like that.

I have Dish Network and a sling box, so the Dish Network app is the best for me.
Slingbox all the way. Have had it on my last 4 phones. Can watch any program from home on my phone. MLB and NFL too.

All those flash streaming sites work just fine

I have a slingbox as well, currently using it on my T-Mobile G2. Getting my Thunderbolt in the mail from Amazon tomorrow. How well does it work in HQ mode with VZW's 4G LTE? I'm sure the answer is obvious, but just wanted to ask anyways
Im a fan of just going online and using flash 10.2! runs great and better quality then other apps
Tv.com or Droid streamer work ok

I haven't been in an area with the 4 g yet. But I did get the car dock. Reminds me of the Droid 1. Can watch my slingbox and listen in my car speakers on the dock. Not that I would do that or anything.

It works very, very well. I stream from a 922 and a 722 with the Sling adapter and both work without stuttering.
Jetflicks is my favorite TV app. Download from the market. I believe it's around $3 a month but it's definitely worth it! Loads of current shows and the update constantly.

Playon rocks but you gotta have it set up right

Using Playon here as well, Netflix and Hulu along with tons of broadcasted TV stations. Lovin' it.
I've tried them all except Slingbox. MobiTV is $12.99 but worth it to me. Get it in the VZ App application.

better than the paid TV show stream? I love that app, it's got every show I've looked for and at like $7, totally worth it
Megaviewer pro is great for movies. On time payment for access to just about any movie. App found on the market.

does this show movies that are being shown in the theaters?
hbo Go
I'm a big fan of the new HBO Go app. Not the 'full' HBO catalog but not a bad selection at all. Unfortunately you have to be an HBO subscriber on participating carriers which is very lame but these things will change in due time I hope.
SLINGBOX all the WAY!

Situations where a galaxy note would have been really handy?

Since the anticipation of getting my galaxy note I've already noticed a few instances where I would LOVE to have one already. In general, I have this habit of writing random crap down on paper, and folding the paper up, putting it in my pocket, and losing it later. I'm a pack rat, so if I don't lose them, the papers just build up, even though I don't read them. It would be so handy to just have them all stored in my phone.
I'm looking for some specific examples here. I think this would be kind of fun to talk about.
Specific examples for me:
-while watching youtube videos about Starcraft strategy, I would want to write down the build order on the note, then alt tab into the game and try it out, references what I wrote on the note.
-Quickly writing down my schedule at work, so that I can program it into my phone later when I have time.
-writing down what my coworkers want me to go order for them at random restaurant i go to
I hope that I find myself in tons of situations where I have to use the pen. Only one I can think of is to pass time at work drawing random pictures.
Using the s-pen to take notes while on conference/speaker phone call . I think that will be handy.
Also I understand smemo (?) can be synced with evernote of which I'm a big user.

If you get the format down, you can send your handwritten note directly to you s planner (google calendar)
Also when getting a PDF or document, you can take a screen shot, sign or mark up the document and send back. Very convenient.
You can also do a voice recording for a note, handy when driving.

I have started a channel on youtube for video game related content. Deliberately being a jerk in online gameplay. Example: running up behind someone on Call of Duty and kill them in some humiliating fashion. I play a lot of games in a night, and having my phone nearby to jot down what map, date and what it is I did would help a lot.
I could do the same with a notebook and pen, but come on... S pen. ;-)

Somebody probably posted it to Sammys page to promote their video. Samsung definitely sponsored it, but it's not an official commercial.

FACT CHECKERS UNIT is a web series. You need to keep up to date on your pop culture. This is not a comercial at all its an episode of FCU and has nothing to do with Samsung at all and is not made by Samsung the stars just get paid to endorse Samsung products on their show just like other tv shows and movies do with other brands. Its kinda like how James Bond will drink beer instead of liquor for the first time in the next James Bond movie, cause Heineken paid him to drink their beer in the movie. This episode came out about a week ago and was watched by millions including myself. Every episode of this season has featured the Galaxy Note in some way. The season started in Jan and the season was called FCU2 GALAXY NOTE. Get your facts straight!

New episodes premiere on MTV.com and HULU but you can watch all the episodes on youtube and thousands of other sites on web. They relesed a statement not too long ago saying there third season would incorperate the Galaxy Tab 10.1 in all episodes.

Thats the default Samsung dialer. You can use video calls without an internet connection or with one. Not sure how it works without a connection but it does. Anyway AT&T has disabled video calls on their devices so we don't have it on our version of the Note. Maybe someone can add it to a rom if they haven't already.
Edit: Here's a video of the video calling

That video call would be awesome!

[Q] Is the note worth it now?

I like mine, and since I bought it I rarely use my Nexus 7. There are better phones and next month is Google i/o so you could wait for that. I don't regret getting mine.
I thought the Note was worth it over a year ago! That's when I got it. If you watch movies, you'll love the screen size! It's an awesome device once you give it root access and flash the new 4.2.2 software. I don't use my note for games so I can't help ya there.
I game hard on mine with a ps3 controller definetly worth it.

Anyone switch from an iPhone?

I've been thinking about jumping ships to an iPhone 5 and I'm curious if anyone here came from it why? What downsides would I be walking into? (What upsides did you have coming to this phone?)

Had an s3. Thought I missed ios and traded my s3 for a 4s. Terrible idea. Ios is so boring. Nothing worth getting the iPhone 5 unless you want a crappy smaller phone. My gf gets pissed at her 5 constantly. Battery life on it sucks

The whole iOS is boring doesn't mean to much to me anymore I don't really mess with my phone besides rom updates. I was curious about the battery life.

I had an Evo 4G. Was curious about the iPhone so I got an iPhone 4. It was cute for a while. Then it's charm wore off quick and it just became dull and boring. I sold it and got an Evo 4G LTE. I soon after discovered the Galaxy S3 and fell in love with Android all over again.

Had a iPhone 4 (jailbroken), switched to GNexus and was surprised how good the phone was besides the battery life (and thats lol when u compare the Gnex to the Note 2) .. I could do a lot more things on the GNex then the iPhone 4.
Once I switched to the Note 2, it wasn't even close.
Don't go full retard imo
I'm glad I'm getting some opinions that aren't blatant fanboys. I was playing with one and don't think I could do it. Not to mention iPhone guys who wanna trade want money on my side (I have over $200 in accessories for my phone already)

My friend just recently switched from the 4s. He has been am iPhone fanboy, even though he claims he wasn't a fanboy, ever since he got his first iPod and iPhone. He just got sick and tired of Apples little walled in garden with the iPhone even when jailbroken. He saw my Note 2, played with it for a couple weeks and then made the switch. He is absolutely in love with hos Note 2 and says there is no way in hell he will EVER go back to an iPhone!
The only thing he dislikes is there is no way to sync his iTunes music, playlists, pictures, and videos. He was using Kies but since he flashed Vanilla Rootbox, which he has been on since the 3rd day he had his phone, he cant find any app for syncing his music tjat works with a USB cord.

There are certainly more (and a lot of times better) accessories for an iDevice; play music thru the media cable, earphone/headphone buttons auto detect the device, more choices when it comes to cases etc

He is currently using iSyncr but the problem he is running into with it is that it doesn't sync any metadata, like how many times a song had been played and all that good stuff.

My wife had an iphone 5 and she thought she would love it because she likes her ipad so much but right away she noticed that she can't see it too well because of the small screen. So she traded it for the note 2 and loves it way, way, way more because of the size. She says it was a great trade.

I went from a 4s to the N2. I have no regrets, and I thoroughly enjoy this phone.
