hi all
i just saw clips of the much talked about galaxy note 10.1 with a s pen.
well my flyer can do the same tricks except the part where i think htc forgot to put some pen compatible handwriting recognition apps in it. one engineer may have been booted due to this, but i dont know.
what interests me is the S Note app that samsung specially made for the note. i humbly request the devs and the gurus to see if it can be ported to the flier. would really want to use it as my flier currently runs on the other notes app from the lenovo tablet but i cant export entire notes from it.
would be willing to donate to the worthy cause.
regards
saneem
i doubt it.
the app seems highly integrated into the multiframe based desktop. and functions part of that is required for the app and its binaries to work. so this is probably not going to be ported as standalone.
the Photoshop touch app does work, so i tested right now while playing with the rom.
crayon physics work too (childrens game)
Thank you very much for the infor...
I am using the flyer for my daily diary and work related stuff and since it can fit right into my Coat pocket, the IPAD owners dont really feel comfortable around me. the Best thing is the pen, but the lenovo app ported has its limitations in exporting the text and so i sometimes feel discouraged.
I remember WM2003, the notes app and the word app in my IPAQ both converted to handwriting to text and that allowed me to do substantial documents in my hand. Wish the IPAQs lasted.
i am still offering to contribute to any person who can build such an app...
Appreciate your replies...

I was wondering about S-note myself. I have the Galaxy Note 10.1 and I'm actually leary of using it because it probably can't be ported off the Note. Samsung doesn't have a good track record of keeping their devices updated and I'm afraid to put my notes in it and be trapped to one device or even one platform.
I'm looking for something more universal, that would work on any Android tablet, not just the Note.

If you want to use handwriting recognition for Flyer/Android, there is an app called WritePad. It's ok.
Hey guys!
I just ordered the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (P5100) 10.1" today via Flipkart (Indian Online Mega-Store) and it is expected to arrive in a few days. I'm really excited that it's going to be my first tablet, but mostly because it'll be the first Android device I own. I've been living with my Nokia N8-00 (Symbian Belle) for about 2 years now and I finally have a replacement.
Along with the excitement, I had a lot of questions about the device. I'll just list them below, so it'll be easier for you guys to answer them
1. Have I made the right choice?
The first thing I thought to myself after I pressed the 'Buy Now' button. I bought it mostly for watching movies and the TV shows that I regularly download from the internet. Some rigorous browsing, downloading of music, and mostly showing off my photos to other people (I'm a photographer and having a portfolio on-hand is a good idea). I haven't demoed the device before, but my friends have all said theirs works wonderfully (granted, they own the 7" version).
2. What is rooting? Do I need to root my device?
My friends keep talking about this rooting thing. I'm a new android user, so I lack the basic knowledge of these terminologies. Will I need to root my tablet? Is it safe to do so? What will I benefit from this procedure?
3. What are the best apps I can download?
I want to know what are the best apps I can install on my device for my particular needs (mentioned above). I also wanted to know how I can customize my device to the fullest extent. When I had an iPod Touch, I jailbroke it and installed WinterBoard to use custom themes and icons of my own choice. What is the procedure to replicate the same on an Android device?
4. Is Android App Development easy?
What language is it generally coded in? I have a basic understanding of HTML/CSS & PHP, a firm grasp on C# and .NET (from Windows 8 Development). I'd like to try my luck in the Android App genre, how many have tried the same and do you feel it is easy for a beginner/intermediate?
I'd really love it if you guys could help me out starting with this new journey of Android! Thank you all!

Well you're in the wrong forum. This is the original galaxy tab forum. Might want to post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1596
Our tablet here is laggy and slow, so you're not going to get proper opinions
1. It really depends on if you have a desktop computer or a laptop as well. If you don't? Sure, it's good for browsing and some other things. But I find watching video on it to be awful, the screen is just too tiny in comparison to an actual monitor, nevermind a TV screen.
2. Rooting allows you to access commands and run apps that you normally wouldn't be able to do. Most of the time, on this forum anyway, it also involves flashing another rom like Cyanogenmod to get even more functionality and remove some of the bloat and crapware that comes with the tablet (like touchwiz).
3. I use Firefox, Apollo and Android's built in gallery. The Android Market also has top paid and free app listings
4. Apps are written in Java and aren't too complicated if you have knowledge of the language and device.
I think it's cool to play around with... But Push comes to shove when doing work related things I never go to it.
I use it for writing down lists for groceries and for grabbing screen shots etc
I use mine to draw and sketch a lot.
It's the main reason I've only had the note series for years.
I use it for work all the time. Being able to jot down notes and thoughts quickly is the best!
Pen? This thing has a pen?

when i first got a Note device ,
way back ....Note 2 and then Note 3 and Note 4 ,
i hardly used the S pen .
Started seeing the value /ease, to do something on my Note 5 .
Really missed my Spen on my S8 + .
Yes, i use S pen a lot now .
Apart from notes etc .
I use Spen for my Klwp theming ,where i found that the navbar gets in my way,
when doing precise value selections etc .
(Navbar either visible or hidden ).
I also sometimes uses it to preview a link or general scrolling .
Also sometimes when using keyboard .
It's just faster than i can type ,with my "dumb" fingers .!
I'm an artist and the pen is specifically why I buy the note phones. While I do all my major work on an ipad pro and desktop, the notes are my go everywhere sketch pad, pretty much everything I draw starts as a rough sketch on the note.
I use the pen to make quick notes at the meetings, shopping lists at home, any time I need to make quick note. I used to use pieces of paper, which usually would get misplaced, then had to look for it, no more. My kids love to draw on my phone as well. Probably use my phone more often with pen, than without it. It's like a mouse on my computer. I feel like dedicated iphone user, only couple models to choose from and high prize to pay. I tried other (without spen) phones, but it doesn't work for me at all.
The pen is very useful, other than the taking quick notes (much faster than virtual keyboard) the most useful thing about it is signing PDF documents, i can pretty much fill out a PDF, sign it and then print to PDF (so no one messes with the signature) without the need to print and scan and much faster. Can do the same for paper forms using Office Lens or Scanbot. Also Microsoft's Remote Desktop client beta version works wonderfully with the s-Pen if you want the portability of a smartphone but the full power of a desktop that's a great go to.
Edit: also anyone looking for a spare s-Pen should look at the s-Pen that came with the galaxy tablet S3, it's a more robust pen, bigger, feels better in the hand and the button works better. Only downsides are it does not store inside the phone and it's not waterproof.
I use my Spen everyday. It's nice to use it to go through your phone. Then not to mention the best part copy and paste anything.
I'm new to the Note universe so I have not used the S Pen much....yet.
I use my S-Pen a good bit - as in at least a few times a day
Notes for both work and home.
Sometimes to mark up a photo to send someone.
I set up to have S-Notes back - so I can make a quick note and have a reminder
Used my trusty old Note 4 for a good while - it is still going strong!
I have the Tab S3 so i sync notes between devices. I make notes every day. I make a note on my Note8 to make sure i don't forget ideas and plans. Very important in business. Writing notes helps me remember information. I use OneNote and Samsung Notes.

OneNote is indispensable, the ability to sync notes between the Tab S3, Note 8 and PC (laptop and desktop) makes it essential, and that's not bringing in the ability to share your notebooks with others. The fact that the desktop app is free and has OCR ability makes it a no brainer. Also Office Lens will scan direct to your OneNote too.

The S Pen is far from essential- but in addition to its "unique" capabilities- I just like using it instead of touch when I can. It seems more precise and if I daresay hygenic.

I would not pay 1,020.00€ for a "Novelty". I already spent near that when the SGS8+ came out.
For me the Note S-pen is the reason I buy......'the Note'..... Its more than a pen its a mouse. I like the hover part when placed over an email or document and it gives you information about the content without opening the mail or document. I can wizz through my emails only opening ones I need to reply to in a hurry. There is so much more to the S-pen.
Ryland
It's the only reason I bought it.
When I had my Note 5 I would use it to jot down random ideas. Also it's really great for meetings. I can write down and organize my notes. Plus it's convenient when used with certain apps. You can hover to see additional content. I've used Evernote and the Galaxy Memo app in place of it but it's not the same

ditto, i use it to sign contracts and other documents in my line of work. also use it to draw on screenshots of software/hardware diagrams prepared using PowerPoint. i'm always writing on pictures shared with friends and i use it for SNote Action Memos, too.
For Mouse Over Actions...that just one...it's awesome. Plus, no fingerprints on the screen. Once you get used to it...you'll find that you may prefer to use it to navigate through the phone with it.
Trying to find a good app for lecture note taking with my Galaxy Tab S6 (which is on its way). I seen literally hundreds of reviews, videos etc. I've made a short list of (possibly) the best available apps for android, but I'd like to have the opinion of experts on this matter. Why am I being proactive with this? Well my tablet was received damaged and a replacement on its way, but I'm really running late with my notes and workload piling up.
I don't mind paying for a good app, as long as it does the job it was intended for. I take engineering notes with lots of math formulas. Handwriting OCR is a must. My humble shortlist after doing my research is:
- Nebo
- Squid
- OneNote
- MS Word
Most of these apps were exhaustively reviewed with an iPad, so I'm not sure which one of these, or any other I missed can do the job on the Tab S6.
Any opinions or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I can only speak to Nebo. I bought it for it's excellent 'written text to .txt' function; aslo does Word (.docx), PDF or HTML. It is in continual development, and they've added some new features just in the last few weeks. Works very well at deciphering even my scribbles that I can hardly make out.
Something to check out is FiiNote; I'm just now starting to evaluate it, (as a replacement for Joplin, not a note-taking app, but good for information consolidation).
FYI, my work-flow using Nebo and Joplin us to scribble notes in Nebo—>convert to plain text—>paste in to Joplin.

Thanks TiTiB for your input. I've purchased and tested Nebo with the Tab S6. Handwriting is indeed faster than OneNote. Math formula writing is again much better. The downside, you cannot import something from pdf, like a graph or a photo from your notes into Nebo. Export to Word works well. I try to do some formatting and inserting graphs using Word on Windows, which takes some time. Dark theme is also not available, which should save some battery. Have you noticed that any of these features can work somehow?
Other than that, Nebo is a very good app.

I have not used any Word functions (nor even Word, for that matter). I don't use Nebo fo anything other than 'scribbles-to-text' ability. I use Joplin for 'consolidation' of text and image/pdf files; tho, like I said, I have FiiNotes installed and am evaluating that app.
Noteledge maybe?

So far I've tried more than a dozen apps and none of them seem to be able to do what I'm trying to achieve!
Currently trying to test Joblin. I'll try Noteledge then and see how it goes.
I'm afraid that buying the Tab S6 for becoming more productive in note taking was a waste of money and time!

Can you please elaborate on why it's a waste of money and time? I'm considering buying a Tab S6 (or iPad 10.2 + Pencil), also for lecture note taking and would really appreciate your opinion.

I extensively tested the Tab S6 for note taking only, nothing else, since I have a lot of homework piling up. I spent more than 2 weeks with that. I could name over 20 note taking apps that I have tried in the process.
The ones I worked with the most since I found more suitable than the others were OneNote, Nebo, Notion, Evernote, Joplin. Every single one of them has something missing which is covered by the other. It is not my purpose to mention pros and cons of each of those. Bottom line, I straggled trying to figure out a way to work more efficiently than taking notes either on paper or using MS Word on the laptop. In the end I realized I was much faster with the laptop!
Tab S6 appears to be an excellent machine, very fast and handy if you are on the go. It's probably the best android tablet out there at this point. However, the android apps are not as good. I've purchased paid versions of some of them above, but still I wasn't efficient enough.
Most of professional apps out there for tablets are demonstrated using either iPad Pro or Surface (YouTube videos). So I was misguided to buy the Tab S6 since I thought that it could cover all these. Big mistake! If you want to make a shopping list or a to-do list on the tablet fine, but that's about it. Besides I don't know why should anyone bother with that anyway, just use the phone.
Don't get me wrong, the Tab S6 was an excellent machine, but cannot compete with the power or multitasking of a laptop. I'm saying "was" because I gave up 2 days ago and I'm back to the old fashion way. Currently, I'm looking for a WACOM or using Notion on laptop to evaluate and see if any of those can to the job efficiently.
I almost mainly use OneNote for note-taking for work, works great for me... And I now noticed OneNote introduced dark mode which is great for oled screens. Every now and then I use Samsung NOtes for a quick random note.
But give some concrete examples of what would be missing because right now it just feels like your greatly exeggarating here. The very general 'every app was missing something' doesn't help either.
I use mainly written notes btw, bought the tabs6 as a replacement for my paper-note-taking primarily.

If you want details, I'll try to be brief:
-OneNote: probably the best of all I've tried, but, I had to use 3 different versions of OneNote to complete my notes, plus MS Word in the end. OneNote on android for taking handwrtitten notes, which by the way cannot recognize math formulas, and I have a lot. Fortunately auto sync on all devices, so used OneNote on W10 to insert graphs and tables. This one has a dark mode as well, but many features are missing. The fully loaded OneNote 2016, which unfortunately is being phased out, has everything, no dark mode, but that's not a problem. Then export to docx, which needs some further formatting and corrections. One problem there, math formulas are extracted as images, not formulas! But overall, OneNote was the best I used. Finally realized, I was faster typing everything on my laptop using Word!
-Nebo: very good with math formulas and all these are transferred as actual formulas when exporting to Word. Dark mode as well. Cannot import tables or graphs, so I had to do this in Word with laptop. Still faster with the laptop!
-Joplin: Excellent app, but still more complete on the Windows version rather than the android app. Didn't practice much with this, still much to learn.
-Notion: excellent app, many possibilities, like Joplin, more powerful on the Windows version rather than the android app. Still much to learn from this.
The handwriting recognition on the Tab S6 is excellent, but I have the impression that everything is done from the tablet itself, not by the different apps. So all the credit for the text recognition goes to the tablet not to the apps, which all use the same input method. I could go on and on, but I have homework to do. I'm stating my honest opinion here, nothing to do with manufacturers or anything else. Unlike many videos posted on YouTube and others, which present things in such an incredible way, giving wrong impressions at times, especially for apps.

OneNote 2016 for Windows is some kind of a Swiss army knife to me... especially with Addons
Because of the downgrades in the 2019 version, I bought OneNote 2016 (Office Home & Student 2016) several months ago.
And the Onetastic-Addon :good:
Good news regarding OneNote 2016?
@euclid444: for math formulas, did you try
- Microsoft Mathematics-Add-In for OneNote (for windows)
- MyScript Calculator 2 (android)
I want to add Lecture Notes to the list.

At first I doubted that it would work and it totally overcome my expectations.
It works fantastic. Note = you really need to use 200% scale at S7+ native resolution.
Main use case it to use it with USB, Wi-Fi is mostly useful as remote display during presentations.
It supports pen and touch so you can make it as tablet! Just awesome
How I use it:
I've two 24" monitors as main displays and under them I've S7+.
Usually I use it as display for YouTube, Spotify or for browsing PDFs/documents
Sometimes I use it as tablet for shared whiteboard at MS Teams.
Meanwhile I have S7+ I had two presentations at work and it was great to preview PowerPoint (what's on and what's next).
IMHO must have. It's amazing enhancement for may daily work.
Got any demos/videos you can share?
This looks pretty interesting to say the least. I want to give it a try, but need to wait for Samsung to ship out my tablet first.
That being said, I feel a bit weary having to install software on my computer to make this run. The website itself also appears to be fairly barren, and not very confidence inspiring in terms of support for the rather expensive app. And lastly, you only have one post on these xda forums, which isn't necessarily alarming but does raise a few questions in regards to your motives - are you the creator of the app or have any affiliation with it? It seems a bit suspicious to only have a single post on these forums and it's to advertise a $15 app.
Anydesk is a solid application that's free as well..

I understand where you're coming from, it does seem a bit sketchy, and after some digging around, it does appear that he is not the developer. The actual developer is KeloCube and is from Finland. He is legit new developer, who is very responsive to emails, opened to any feature suggestions, etc..
That being said, the app itself (price went down to $10) is truly reliable and performs really well. From many apps in the similar category I've tried, it outperforms them all. This one is the least sluggish and has the lowest input latency by far. The reason being that the app was originally meant to turn your tablet into a graphical pad and needed to be as precise and responsive as possible.
The software is necessary to install the required drivers, as it supports pressure-sensitive stylus when using your tablet into a graphical pad for Photoshop, graphical design and stuff, and to set the correct IP when connecting over wifi.
Been using the app for about 3 weeks pretty much everyday for university and haven't encountered a single problem yet. It supports 120hz over a USB-C connexion too, which is nice. Although your PC must meet certain requirements and your tablet refresh rate must be 120hz (obviously).
I'm in no way endorsed or have any affiliation with him.
I just like to support smaller developers who often deliver high quality apps that may very well be superior and perform better than the ones more commonly used, and I feel they deserve more recognition.
I can share demos / videos upon request
How does it compare with spacedesk (multi monitor display extension screen) - Apps on Google Play ?
My S7+ comes in the mail soon ... I've use Spacedesk on my previous Tab S3 via usb.
Does anyone know of anything like this for Mac?
I'm using a similar app called "Duet". Just like this one you have to install an app on your PC, but the performance has been very solid. It supports Air Connections or USB Cable Connections. To use the air connection both have to be on the same Wifi network. It's been flawless for my use over the last few weeks. I tried the tablets native Windows screensharing feature, which worked well, except it doesn't keep the tablets screen active and it doesn't count the use of the mouse on the PC so it would disconnect every 10 minutes unless I turned the power settings to not turn off. It was just a pain. With Duet I have it set to auto-connect, so as soon as I turn my work computer on it automatically connects my tablet and uses it as an extra monitor. I believe its' only $9 as well.
Samsung Tab s7 now natively supports screen extensions. You can use your tab as 2nd monitor now. I am not sure about Mac, but I use it frequently on windows. Should be same with Mac but can't really comment
If you are having problems with the native support, you can always try SpaceDesk. Used to use it on my S6. Worked very well. .

At first I doubted that it would work and it totally overcome my expectations.
It works fantastic. Note = you really need to use 200% scale at S7+ native resolution.
Main use case it to use it with USB, Wi-Fi is mostly useful as remote display during presentations.
It supports pen and touch so you can make it as tablet! Just awesome
How I use it:
I've two 24" monitors as main displays and under them I've S7+.
Usually I use it as display for YouTube, Spotify or for browsing PDFs/documents
Sometimes I use it as tablet for shared whiteboard at MS Teams.
Meanwhile I have S7+ I had two presentations at work and it was great to preview PowerPoint (what's on and what's next).
IMHO must have. It's amazing enhancement for may daily work.

I just installed the demo version. I have set up the display, but I can't finger paint in Photoshop. I can use my finger to control tools in Photoshop, but the image does not react to my finger moving a brush. Any ideas ?
I purchased the app for Android. It does not work as advertised with Photoshop.
You can access Photoshop, but you can't interact at all with the image (no brushes, masks, selection tools, healing, etc).
