Is there an app out there for writing code? Something similar to notepad++ would be pretty cool. I know there are ssh apps and basic note writing apps, but anything specifically for code writing? Thanks!

how about looking at the basic introduction to the android sdk and the eclipse plugin?
Sorry I wasn't very clear, I actually meant an app for writing code from on the device.. not necessarily code to be executed on the phone, but an app for writing code using the phone. I have a folding bluetooth keyboard with my dell streak, which makes typing very doable, so it would be cool if I could find an app to do that, though I haven't had much luck so far.. Thanks, Brian

CM6 includes vi.
Don't know about stock ROMs. Never ran one long enough to find out.
There are a few text editors on the market. EStrong File Explorer includes one that is on-par with plain-vanilla notepad.
Theoretically, you could port any pure-java IDE. But, performance is likely to be, shall we say, sketchy.
I remember using some decent pure-Java text editors several years ago. Might want to look into porting one of those if none of the Market editors is sufficient.

I know it might seem far fetched, but I thought it would be nice if there was any way to change values in games. I've had no luck finding any so far, and I'm not sure if the concept is possible.

Here is a link to something that I thought was nice. It is a windows phone 7 keyboard with the sounds included. It works great and i thought that i would share it with you. A description on how to install and use it is also in the link along with download.
I take no credit for it i just wanted to share it with this forum all credit goes to frostincredible.

remember to thank him if you like the keyboard.
FYI: This is actually a re-skinned HTC keyboard, which was the best keyboard around for a while... but it's been surpassed now and doesn't compare at all favorably to the stock Gingerbread keyboard, the Motorola multi-touch keyboard, or SwiftKey. The HTC board isn't even multi-touch, for example.
EDIT: Thought I had seen this somewhere: a much, much, much better option if you want a WP7-themed board is this themed Gingerbread keyboard (flash in CWR):

I saw this one as well but when I tried to install it I always got an error about amend scripting or something like that and never really looked into it. If there is a way to fix it I would really like to try this one out. But I currently really like the one that I posted in the op.

Sorry how do you go about installing it in clock work? Also does it replace the stock one? I love how wp7 is so easy to type on but tried the op one and It didn't feel right.
I'm confused myself. its in an amend format which wont let it install. the file type was not used after android 1.5 yet this is obviously a fairly recent thread that this was posted in.

I did find a way to install this. you have to run it through a program to change the script but i forget where i found it at. I will post a link when I find it in the mean time try out google for the answer.
I did find a thread on the board for a program called Amend2Edify. is that what you used?

I don't think there is one.
It'd be good to have one btw...
I've seen some demand for this, but I don't understand it. I can pretty much type 50 WPM on a computer keyboard. Typing code on a phone would be a pain IMO Now, if you could use a portable USB or Bluetooth keyboard, count me in!!
The closest I can get is my Asus Eee netbook, my Droid X and a USB cable. It's very portable, Eclipse or Intellij runs fast enough. Just don't run emulator!!! LOL

This would be handy for developing on a tablet that is for sure. A good start would be a Android Java friendly code editor, at least you could tinker with the code and then try it out when you are back on a complier.
I imagine with a bit of scripting, there could be a way to remotely use a pc with Eclipse running to receive altered files, compile and return the apk.

No, I think you misunderstood me. If I were to go to someplace, say a bookstore, I take my Asus Ee Netbook running Eclipse, my phone and USB cable. I code on the netbook, run the code on the phone.
It's an extremely compact and lightweight option for me.

i find.the emulator too slow. Makes me wonder why the need for emulator. why not just code and run directly on the phone or tablet.

Never had a problem with emulator speed on MacBook Pro. I just like using the emulator to get the program going and then transfer to phone to check alignment stuff. I made note that I DO NOT run emulator on my netbook....now THAT is slow! LOL
Not to mention, I need the screen shots from the emulator for Google Market

This has been on my mind for a little while now and I've been waiting for either Google or CM team to make it happen but...So anw have anyone ever thought that it would be awesome if we can have folders within folders ? Sure the idea of creating folders to store a specific category of apps has been around across multiple mobile OS platforms, but personally I haven't seen one that would let us users create one or more folders inside that initially created folder. It would be great if CM team, or heck Google can put this into Android. We would be another step ahead of iOCrap.
The reason they didn't is because how many folders within fillers would you want? Put too many and it overflows the system. Probably the reason why it isn't there yet. A lack of demand is another possible reason. It isn't as low level as file system, which has this. This would be running in java vm then in an app.

Folders within folders is something programmers have been able to do since DOS. Probably before that. There is NO technical reason why it would be impossible.

I did not say it was impossible. I stated some possible reasons why it has not been implemented. This "folder" is on a higher application level than it is on a file system. Therefore out would take more resources, albeit probably not a whole lot.

I don't even use folders. Just hide ones you don't use.

Well, 2 dimensional folders should be enough (only one or more folders within the initially created folder is allowed). Thanks for your reply though
New thread further down the list! SWEET!
I got this tablet for school, trying to go paperless. I came from TF-101, now my wife's, so I know how things work. My question is, what is the best most stable Rom for this device? I like customizable roms but stability is a must. Any ideas out there?
I tired Omega but had problems connecting to my schools wifi, we have to use a third party app to connect, went back to stock and no problems.
Also, whats the best keyboard and word document for this bad [email protected]# machine?

Unfortunately there is no specific one rom.. U will have to try a few roms and see what fits the best.
Omega rom has been the best for me, but very slow with updates..
Keyboard - best is the default one but lacks spell check.( there is a mod available in this forum) . I use swiftkey for typing and default for handwriting..
Word document -i like officesuite pro but Many like polaris , etc are good too

Im starting to think just leave well enough alone. I love it so far and each day I find something new. Tried Omega and collection v6. Stock seems to be the best so far.
Any ideas on dock able keyboards and can I use a mouse with this. Im thinking full laptop replacement.
S- pen is nice, but sometimes you just have to type.
Ps
Odin is awesome, its like flahing roms and restoring is completely encouraged.
A word app you might want to give a try is CloudOn, a free app that is as close as makes no difference a full MS word and Excel for your tablet. It's not perfect and it lags a bit (at least here in Europe, maybe it's because it's webbased and the servers are in the US) but it has the advantages that all equations, tables, pi pictures, figures and so on you have in your document is displayed properly.

try redemption rom :good:
First off congratulations on the note 10.1 !. Personally I would stick with stock, maybe root it, debloat it and enjoy. There are a lot of great roms out there but there are a lot that suffer from weird quirks and glitches, Also I would advise against using any custom kernels or overclocking as they have a tenancy of causing crashes in my experience

I'll second CloudOn, and also second the lagging. If you need to do some serious work in Excel, I don't thing it can be beat. Else you can usually find me in Google docs for first stays of papers, notes and things like that.
As for keyboards, I picked up a Microsoft wedge bluetooth keyboard and couldn't be happier. I found a new in box item on eBay for $45 shipped, in stores I think they are closer to the 60-70 range.

Hi
For me if you are looking to take notes then use Payrus, its free and geat to use.
Have you tried the free polaris office.

Nothing against any developer, but without source code hard to get perfect results. Most very good considering.

+1 to Papyrus.
As I just got this tablet a few days ago, still undecided whether I want to keep it or not, the smaller development kinda surprised me.
If you're using it to replace paper for school, you're best off with a rooted stock rom so you can do multiwindow everything but keep everything stable. Also, lecture notes + dropbox => golden notes.

Indeed, but what he is asking for is something stable and stock imo is the most stable, not saying there are not good roms out there, but the last thing he needs is his note crashing after have written a Bunch of stuff for school

You missed my first post, "the best rom is already on it".
Correct. The standard firmware is very stable.
I use lecturenotes to take handwritten notes it also allows you (with the extra plugins) to record the audio while you make your notes. You can even record the audio plus a video of the notes so you can play it back after.
Another small recommendation, if you like mind maps simpleminds is great.
