Reachability Cursor [APP] - LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Saw this app in a video a few minutes ago. Handy for larger phones and/or small hands.

I just released an alternative to that app, you can find it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.quickcursor
Thanks!

I tried it out.. Seems pretty neat... Haven't used it much yet but it could be useful when you don't have an extra hand to spare... Nice app.

[Q] Using the Nook Color for College Classes?

Hey All,
I have used these forums as my main resource for android for a while now, and this is my first time having to post a question because everything is usually so well documented.
I bought a nook color a while ago, and have love it. I take college classes at night, and obviously would love to use it during said classes. Getting books, and PDF's for it are easy enough, but i am looking for an app to take notes with. I am not a huge fan of using a touchscreen keyboard to take notes which i have done in the past. Does anyone know of a solid handwriting recognition app that would be useful for class? or any other applications that would be useful for class in general?
Thanks You.
I don't think it may work fine for that purpose at least you have a stylus and a handwriting app cause its kinda annoying to take fast notes in this keyboard wether you use portrait or landscape mode because of the size

There has to be something a little more intuitive to take notes with than having to type everything... right?
So far, the best I have seen for handwriting recognition on android works like so:
Write a word
Wait
Omfg, it guessed wrong, rewrite word
Rinse, repeat until it gets one word right
Class is over
Do yourself a favor and buy a pen and paper

You will be good as gold if bluetooth every gets working... A nice mini keyboard would solve your problem
I hear ya man... that would make my life so much easier the day BT gets up and running.
brandsdragon.com/products/product_26269.htm
Nice cheap little mini keyboard like this one would fix my problem.
I did see an handwriting recognition app that is similar to how the old palm pilots used to do hwr, but i hated using in on the palm, and still hate it on android.
http://www.appbrain.com/app/genial-writing/com.zenpie.genialwriting
This is the best app I've found so far. My biggest problem has actually been the NC's screen. There don't seem to be enough contact points or something to make for accurate enough writing.
Can't wait for the BT day either.
I mostly use my Nook Color as a supplement to my desktop at home in college. We are a big Google Apps school so we share everything over Google Docs. I use quickoffice to access my google docs from my nook and view my presentations and notes no there. I do everything except take notes on there, because its just not possible. Wait for bluetooth and then we might have progress.
Here is a decent, admittedly roundabout set up i've come up with: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10689802#post10689802
Also, I did see (but didn't buy) a stylus made for ipad and other capacitative touch screens (such as nook color screen). It was $14.99 at microcenter in the ipad accessories section. Could work well in combination with a sketchpad type app... not handwriting recognition, but just handwriting.
Thanks for all the input guys, sadly it seems that i will have to wait until we get BT working. I have been paying attention to the progress of some of the people working on enabling BT. Does anyone know if there is a particular BT initiative that has been making more progress over the others?
At the moment there is only one person that I see working on it in the bluetooth thread.
My plan (I will start using my NC for classes tomorrow) is to use an app called blackink. You can have different notebooks for class and either draw notes or type notes. You can also sync to evernote and dropbox. At the very least I will be using evernote, dropbox and a scanner to minimize the files I keep from classes. But yes, if a working BT happens note taking in class will be much easier!
Seriously, what happened to taking notes, then transcribing them later, adding details, revising? For me it helps solidify the information in my WET data storage.
I teach first year English, am a grad student, and I use this thing with taking notes, reading pdfs, etc. The best setup I've gotten really fast with is using Evernote (which syncs between my ios devices and my Macbook) with the SlideIT keyboard. Certainly faster than trying to use handwriting recognition or the few times I've played with the ipad on screen keyboard. I usually ignore errors and clean up the notes later when I'm at my macbook. Almost as fast as writing by hand, for me at least.
Nb I also really push for my students to use Evernote. The Mac version is slightly more full featured than the windows one, but both are good and the android and ios versions are great.
Sent from my Nook Color
I tried a targus stylus made for the ipad and it didn't work out too well at all. I tried it in magic doodle and it can't even draw a straight line or circle consistently. Something about the nc touch screen just don't make a stylus conducive for sketching or note taking, cuz apparently reviewers thought the stylus worked great on the ipad. Can't wait until a tab with integrated wacom is released.
this is an offbeat solution, but in my classes, i have a macbook air (11 inch). i use the tab only when i surf and use it to stay low profile.
I've been using my Nook Color in class for about a week now. I'll share my thoughts.
1. Note-taking is a pain, and you'll only complicate your life by trying to use handwriting recognition or drawing software. I work at our campus computer store, and people have tried for a year or more to use styluses for handwritten data entry on capacitive touch screens. The mushy point on the iPad stylus that allows it to work is much closer to Sharpie thickness than a typical pen or pencil. Unless you want to have hundreds of notes that look like they were written by a kindergarten student, you should go a different route.
2. Evernote is not as useful as I had hoped. I'm used to having the ability to record audio notes with my Droid, and that's impossible with the nook at this point because it doesn't have a microphone. I've seen audio minijack add-ons for the iPod Touch that would record audio despite the lack of native support, but it will be a while before we see that on the Nook, if ever. That said, I've also tried typing on both the default keyboard and SlideIT, the latter of which cannot hold a candle to Swype. My solution? I carry a small notepad and record the audio to Evernote using my phone.
3. eBooks are extremely frustrating at times. I had to pay ~$4 for a copy of the novel My Antonia on Amazon because the free/cheap versions often lack effective ways to navigate. You can flip through a paper book, but, in the Kindle app, trying to navigate to a certain chapter without a Table of Contents is a huge pain. I'm definitely spending less than on print books, but you can't count on finding free options.
4. The native note-taking abilities in the Kindle app are beautiful. I've noticed probably a 300% increase in how much I interact with text when I can touch the text to highlight it rather than having to get a highlighter or sticky note. Being able to see all notes and highlights is also great. Yes, that's more of a Kindle-specific thing, but it looks gorgeous on the screen, and I like that the display is true to the size of a book.
5. Productivity use will remind you how far Android has to come. I've yet to find a clean, simple, and easy-to-use to-do list that can sync to Google Tasks and not look terrible on the screen. Similarly, until moments ago when I saw another post here, I was frustrated that the Calendar didn't work. There have been times in the past week that I've been close to soliciting a developer to create an app that fills the gaps I see.
6. I'm an English major, so a lot of my professors are against having technology in the classroom. I've found that they've all been accepting of ereaders because they assume people won't be using them for Facebook/Twitter/whatever. That's a pretty awesome side, but I'd prefer to use my MBP and MS Office to record my lectures along with markers in the text for going to specific parts of the recording.
I look forward to the day that Bluetooth works on the Nook or when someone creates an iPad/XOOM-style keyboard dock. I know a girl who takes her iPad to class, docks it, and loves the whole experience. I want that, but for half the price and without the walled garden. Still, though, I think the Nook experience would improve dramatically if some skilled developers were given enough motivation/compensation for their efforts.
again, no ipad. macbook air 11. trust me on this u just open and type.

Jorte looks good and works great for me. Give it a try if you haven't already.
Not too useful for school right now, mostly using it as a document viewer in class. Beats a smartphone for simple note-taking in a pinch. Laptops are much popular in my current school than my old one in the US, so the 'less disruptive' tablet issue doesn't apply.

Best use of notes

Could users list their creative and best uses for the Notes application. Emailing, notes, websites etc.
websitess
Oh well I definately use it like some sort of print screen application.. things I try not to forget I write over it and save it as my note..also I can find it as jpeg in gallery so its good for that type of use. When Im bored I draw but since lately my screen got scratched I avoid it..
Know this is more digital pen answer but what is notes without pen

I thought this thread would be inunaudated with great uses...........
To be honest, I simply use the notes application with Evernote on the PC to record all of my customer meetings. The audio integration works excellently and has reduced the volume of notes per meeting. No longer do I have to carry multiple paper note books with me nor flip through pages to find prior notes. Very happy!
My wife and I recently went shopping for a new dishwasher. It was cool to be able to snap a picture of the floor units and take notes (including wriiting down the model numbers to look up online reviews). In case you haven't tried it, pictures you take while the notes app is open are embedded into your note.
screenshots to small
hello,
one question concerning the screenshots made by notes. Is there a way to make them bigger? I'm not able to read the text in the screenshots because of too small and I canot zoom in or find the parameters to save in another size. The screenshot size is ok when working on it (just after creating the shot) but when I safe the note and open it again the size is too small.
thanks a lot

Use the Evermore app in parallel. Images in notes are able to be manipulated.
A bit of a pain, but i have the two apps set up different ways which works well.

They say that the Honeycomb upgrade will expand the use of the Pen and the notes application, Hopefully................
I have actually been using it in class to record the lecture while taking my notes on it. I use it in landscape mode. It takes a bit to get used to and find what pen settings work best, but after the initial curve it works fairly well. I will switch between it and my etextbook and blackboard all at the same time. I have to keep an eye on the back button but have been satisfied with being able to see my notes appear a they were written when the lecture was going on. I bought a transformer this weekend to use for my textbooks and blackboard to take the load off my view. yes I will be using two tablets in class at once but it still beats a huge laptop or a bunch of books and spirals.
I'm a graphic designer for a clothing company. I use it take snap shots of clothes we have made protos of and make comments of changes that are required. Some meetings I'm taking notes while listening and recording comments from merchandisers on what styles sells best. Also while I commute to work in NYC metro, I would usually see few designs I get inspired by and usually sketch the concepts. Its a general good source of data, since I carry it with me everywhere I have access of my thoughts and inspirations on the go. But after making these comments, I really hope HC makes better use of the Tablet and pen. It is lacking in some areas and it is not always the most enjoyable experience. Sketching is okay at best and the longer files tend to be a little laggy. Hoping for a better sketching integration of notes and evernote.

Note Taking App That is comparable to "Notability" from IOS

I just got my first android tab(TFP). Everything is so far so good. Frankly was really worried since there are tons of people whining about Wifi, bleeding and even short charger cable(lol mine wasnt short at all)
Either way, biggest and maybe only disappointment i have with my tablet is that there is nothing on Android Market that is comparable to "Notability" from IOS.
If you have an Ipad, you know what i am talking about.... I looked around for a while and cant find anything as good. I was wondering if anyone can make an recommendation on a note taking app that is similar to Notability.
I've never used the app, but have you taken a look at Evernote? Or am I completely off base?

bit off base, Notability is focused on handwriting with fingers or stylus. With Evernote, you have to type notes or have to draw it.
Wouldn't it just be as fast to type than to write anyway?
Booya!
Hey!
I am using Epistle and once I got familiar with the interface I don't feel like switching.
As for hand writing - there are some keyboards that come in handy. I am using SlideIT and while not hand writing it's ridiculously fast to type this way.
I have been wondering the same thing. My co-worker has an ipad2 and I think notability is freaking awesome. I was trying to find an equivalent for my Xoom and can't. Why cant someone make an equivalent? Notability is awesome and only costs 99cents in the app store.

I don't have an iPad but I do have a tf300 and would love to have Notability or Penultimate on Android. The only apps I found that are similar to Notability or Penultimate are:
- Papyrus Beta (seems to be the only one with Palm rejection)
- Writepad Stylus
- LectureNotes
- Handrite Note Pro (another user recommended "Genial Writing" as a better app)
I'm not sure about that claim, but that's what I found so far.
There are some more related android apps but some of them have mixed reviews, and do not seem very reliable.
At this point I have not found an app that comes close to Notability, and it seems that Notability won't be available for android (at least not soon).

Seriously, I know people who’ve bought iPads just to be able to use this app! Think about it – I understand the need for an android version but I’m going to be selfish and plead with the Devs to keep the focus on iOS
Fred Mitchell on March 3, 2012 at 6:40 pm said:
Thanks everyone for your interest in Notability. I am with Ginger Labs, the developer of Notability. Carolyn did a nice job reviewing the app, thanks Carolyn!
For now, we are focused on iOS devices, the first being iPad, and we’re considering an iPhone version and possibly a version for the computer. We’re getting more requests for an Android version every week, and will consider it, but probably after the other versions are complete.
I think the new pensuite for the Samsung Galaxy Note has some features which are similar to the ones of notability.... Maybe a port of it could come even for tablets, once we'll have the ics version..
I am the author of LectureNotes, so my opinion is probably somewhat biased. In any case, I want to point out that to develop apps for iPad is significantly easier than to develop apps for Android: There is only one hardware manufacturer, one system version, and two screen resolutions (the latter only since very recently), etc. The world of Android is much more colorful and challenging: There are multiple hardware variants, various system versions, a multitude of screen resolutions, etc., not to talk about devices that do not behave in accordance with the documentation. As a consequence, the time and money you need to invest in app development is not comparable, and this is of course true for all handwriting apps in Android, not just for LectureNotes. Please consider this when comparing apps.
BTW: In difference to what is stated above, LectureNotes does have a palm rejection, either hardware based (for devices with active pens), software emulated (some devices), or a heuristic (all other devices) (also WritePad Stylus has a palm rejection.) But if you want to do serious note taking with your device, I definitely recommend a tablet with an active pen, irrespective of what Android app you use.
Its now 2013. Has ANYONE found a comparable app yet? Has any development improved? I use and love Evernote. Just wish I could freely type, draw and write notes like Notability.

Found this old thread and I'm wondering the same thing! Does anyone have any good ideas? I'm getting a tablet later this year specifically for pdf reading and editing, and would love to get a nexus 7 rather than an ipad mini, but unfortunately notability is tipping the scales towards the ipad.

Well cant say I found it. I've found some close apps. Like Handwrite, evernote which I've mainly been using and handy memo. Not sure how close these are to Notability though.

I have found fiinote, 7 notes, free note, and lecture notes to be the best for serious hand writing I do on__l a galaxy note I feel like fii note needs major UI improvements but it is great for genetics lecture notes, because I hike my notes in my own handwriting. + the free draw has snap to grid this and the drawing us. handwriting are on 2 separate layers SO Easy to edit an switch between quickly I use the 7 notes keyboard as my input method for all things as it allows for single word edit, after writing out along string, has scrolling for a few screens before you need to confirm it and start another string. Some only allow 1 screen worth of writing, also even though it needs to be confirmed It does Still add each word you write in real time
What I want + have Yet to find is a Notability function-adding a power point the base layer so I can take notes on that in Or go. Anyone know of one? if I do PDF program I am basically adding comments in a clunky way, so I need a note taking/handwriting app I can add-ppt or pdf to and handwrite on it. My classmate can do this with notability
Note anytime

Note anytime is amazing I loved notability but for a great deal on my Android tablet and honestly hated all the apps for notes on this thing until now. Evernote only lets you add an attachment, office suite made you pay for the edit version, lecture notes is just writing, Polaris was good but no writing. I liked Kingsoft but you had to use the Samsung keyboard to write to text and it would add it to a pdf. Note anytime is above all the best.You have to just download it and go through the east tutorial!:good:

Hi --- checking note anytime, seems amazing, but I could not find a way to export a multi-page note to PDF. It's me or it's not implemented? (without that, it's basically not useful).

Lecture notes works quite well, but the handwriting is very shaky and horrible compared to Notability.

LectureNotes is promising. Noteability is awesome. LectureNotes is probably more powerful as it has a lot of customisation features. Perhaps too much in my opinion as a Noteability user.
But writing on a Samsung Note is really far better than using a squishy stylus on the iPad. I've been using S notes, the built in Samsung app, but it is too staid, slow and sluggish. Am coming to grips with LecturenNotes as I work with a lot of large sized PDFs. So far LN has been promising. Have got around to importing my first file and starting to annotate it. LN looks to deliver a lot. Let me see. The developer is extremely responsive. If that continues, I am sure my life will be a whiz with LN.
Would love Noteabiity on Android to cut through a lot of the learning curve on LN.

SoftMaker, anyone?

I played around with SoftMaker's office-like app in Beta - quite liked it, but it was never very stable (e.g., it often just wouldn't open) and there was quite a bit of typing lag when using the keyboard. Has anyone stumped up the pretty hefty price for the full release and tested it (particularly the TextMaker element) who would care to comment on its pros and cons? I guess for me, in addition to genuine multi-tasking, having a pretty full office suite is the one thing that may put me off getting a Surface - at least in its first iteration.

Funny i just came here to make a thread about softmaker office mobile
First off: There is a 30 day test version that you can try out with all features enabled.
I used it since early beta, and i've even written a full 6 pages essay for my final exams with it. There is spelling correction and everything. There is not a single feature that is missing for me. You have to use a seperate app for thesaurus, synonyms and stuff but that doesnt bother me. It seems that they fixed the typing lag issues as well, even when writing longer texts i didnt come across any lags - make sure to enable opengl acceleration in the options.
You can also install any font you like, you just have to put it in the right folder. It reads every file i've come across and displays it correctly. For my essay i had to write it in a premade file that came on a usb stick. No issues at opening it or saving it in the format it came. No display issues or formatting issues.
You can also save your files directly to pdf from the app and the dropbox integration is flawless. In a way it even makes stuff easier than on the pc because everything is integrated.
About the cons.. Well it takes some time until you know what all the buttons do, there is an option where you can arrange the symbols the way you want and there there are explanations on what each symbol does - but thats the only place where they explain it.
Also i didnt find a way to change my standard document. So each time you create a new file you have to set up the font and size before you start typing. Maybe there is an option for that and i just havent found it yet though
Also i checked out the presentation app, IT EVEN SUPPORTS ANIMATIONS! I think its the only mobile app that supports ms office animations. So you can simply create stuff on your pc at home save it to your dropbox and present it via hdmi or vga (adapter needed) out, and you can depend on it that it will display exactly the way you created it at home. Over are the days where you need to carry heavy laptops and bring your power adapter
I can fully recommend it at this point and suggest you try out the trial version.
On a side note i read about rumors that Microsoft is planning on releasing their own office apps for both ios and android later this year (probably november). So for me there is no reason at this point to buy a windows 8 tablet. Office was the last thing i was looking for. The gap is filled - at least for me.
Cheers mate
Damn, I wish I knew this a month ago... So many essays that I've used QuickOffice for. This feels so much nicer, + the animations in Presentations are nice!

Thanks for all the helpful info. Don't you think it would be odd for Microsoft to release the Surface, which most people would buy because of MS Office functionality, and then a couple of weeks later release Office for Android/iOS? (As far as I can see the last 'rumours' of this release were back in May) Still, when my ATP comes back from its 3rd RMA (tomorrow) I'll give the 30 day free trial a go. Hopefully by the end of that we'll know a bit more about whether Office proper is coming to Android.
Kingston Office just got an update... it's awesome now, it was great, but now it is awesome... highly highly recommend this great app

I think it's Kingsoft - and yes, the interface looks really good now; if only it had a few more fonts...It's also not nearly as accurate at presenting docs as Softmaker appears to be - though SM's interface is pretty demanding to get your head around at first. I guess all these small Office-esque apps are rather concerned about the upcoming MSOffice app (if it comes) and the Surface. It should certainly encourage some good work from the competitors.

Best Android photo touch-up app -Pixelmator equivalent

Good afternoon everyone,
I've been using Android for a few years now, but a month ago I had a loan of an iPad Air 2 - I bloody hated it! However, there was one app that really impressed me: Pixelmator.
It had really powerful features, like being able to hide blemishes on photographs, plus all the usual stuff like blurring areas of the picture or sharpening them. It was also a really good painting app. I wrote a review of some of its features on BeyondThePC (but as I'm a new user I cannot give you a link to the co(dot)uk site) >:>.
I wondered if anyone knew of an Android equivalent? It's really the image touch up features I'm interested in - not that my face has so many blemishes I have to spend hours hiding them!
Thanks in advance for your help!
Davy
Snapseed, Handyphoto, & Facetune (for portraits)... My go to photo enhancers...
Thanks, I'll give them a try!
Davy.
I could add...
I have Cyberlink Photodirector a go and that does a pretty good job of fixing up pictures. It's got an object removal tool that works on small things like blemishes as well as large things that take up significant proportions of your picture. It sleep has painting functionality, but I am yet to look at that. Only problem is you have to pay up to be able to work with large pictures.
