I only lookup contacts by using the keyboard in the Contacts application, and I really miss the way the Treo let me search contacts from the Today screen by using its full keyboard. I would like an application that gives me a keyboard with a lookup bar right in the Today screen, but since that's not available, can I at least get the keyboard to pop-up automatically without me having to open it up every time I open the Contacts application?
One way I see this feature implemented is by using MortScripts. Does anyone know of another/better way?
Thanks a lot,
Hi, this is My first post.
I would like to be able to use hand writin recognition on S-note in split screen.
so the idea is I have a lecture running on one window through Youtube or video app, and then another window I am using handwriting recognition to take note's on s-note, is this possible?
when on split screen hand Writing recognition functionality does not seem possible as there is no option for it.
Thanks.
Hello
A couple of questions about how handwriting recognition works for the 10.1:
i) Is it available for all apps, i.e. handwriting recognition can be selected for any app which has keyboard input?
ii) Assuming your handwriting isn't a scrawl, how good is the recognition, (e.g. how does it compare to Windows 7/8 tablets)?
Thanks for any feedback

Yes it can be enabled in any app that support kekeyboard input, and comparing it to other w8/7 tablets i havent tried them but handwriting recognition works perfect, fast and never faild to recognize my writing also i have a bad hand writing
Sent from my GT-N8000 using XDA Premium HD app
I can be pretty slack with my handwriting and it works pretty good with a 95% accuracy rate. The 5% it doesn't, I'd have trouble reading if I hadn't wrote it then and there...
This doesn't really help the OP, but I thought I might as well stick my question under the same header.
In the keyboard setting is a tick box for "change to handwriting recognition when Spen is detected" and I'm wondering how it's implemented as I have not noticed anything happening. I always have to change the keyboard manually. Wether I remove the pen or use my spare one. Thanks.

I've tried and it somewhat works... but with varying results.
It surely doesn't work instantly (as one would expect). That is, if you have your keyboard out and you pull out the pen the keyboard doesn't change automatically and instantly from "typing mode" to "handwriting mode".
In a simple text editor (as Jota text editor) it works this way: if you have the pen out and you tap on the note as to insert new text, the type of keyboard is hw recognition. Then you put the pen in its slot (the keyboard stays out and doesn't change), close the keyboard (the keyboard disappears) re-tap on the note to write something else and the keyboard popping out is now the classical typing keyboard. The reverse also works.
In some other apps this behavior is not replicable. Maybe because these other apps "remember" (in the cache?) the last type of keyboard used and this overwrites Samsung "pen-detection" function.
Anyway there's a wonderful (and genial) app that automatically and instantly changes the keyboard (i.e. from the samsung stock one to another choosen one, i.e. some keyboard more advanced for traditional typing) with the pen's pulled out or in. It's called SPenBoard Switcher. The link is here.
(Unfortunately it's necessary to have a rooted device to install it...)
Thanks for your explanation. I didn't expect it to work instantly, I just never noticed it doing anything at all. But then again, I rarely use the attached pen, but one of those bigger ones. I will definitely give the suggested app a go.
Hi,
i am sure there are many questions like mine but i didn't found it.
I am looking for a sNote 2014 alternative for my N8020.
I want to handwrite a text and want to transform in letters if i am ready with handwriting. as i know it only works with sNote 2014 Edition or?
Hoping for help.
All the best for you Guys.
Well, I would suggest LectureNotes, but it does not have everything you want. It doesn't have handwriting to text function, but in every other way, it's much better than S Note. There's also MyScript Notes which does support handwriting to text, but it lacks many features that LectureNotes and S Notes has.
Been looking for a way to sett the pen as trigger for changing the handwriting recognition when the pen is removed.
NOTE I KNOW there is an option in the settings to automate just that, BUT it doesn't allow me to choose what handwriting recognition I prefer. I use My Script Beta , prefer that over the built in handwriting recognition.
Anyone found a way to catch / trigger pen removal as a task in tasker??
thanks in advance

Anybody? Does anyone even have a suggestion? Or an alternative apporach?
