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.
Alright, I know app editing and repackaging isn't one of the quickest or easiest (especially with a whole graphical overhaul) process, but I was wondering if someone, if either bored, or looking for something to do, could make an ICS themed Spotify app. The current one really looks horrible in my opinion and id rather have the cool blues over the nasty green. Just a though. I wanted to attempt this myself, but I honestly suck at editing graphics. Idk. Let's see some ideas! I know there would be at least a few other people that would love this.

Hi, I got the VBA emulator on my mac. I got a bunch of Roms off of coolrom.com and these Roms work great on my phone but when I open them on the VBA they are tiny , you can not enlarge them, also there a no controls on how to operate. So what I'm asking is where can I get good Roms and how do I use the controls.

If you're having that much trouble with the emulator, try another one
I have VBA on Windows - it lets me re-size and you can check out what the default controls are through the menu.
If it works differently on a Mac, perhaps as suggested try another one.
OK I'll try that thx but any suggested emulators

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.
Keyboard and mouse have Motorola works for me.
Hope you have as much fun n productive as I have...

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.

I apologize if this has been asked, I didn't find it on a search.
I can't recall the last time that I didn't have a rooted phone. I want to try out the nexus out of box for a bit before rooting, but I was wondering if I can change the DPI on a non rooted phone. I hate using stock phones where I feel like an old blind person from his big the words are.
Also, I have never owned a nexus. Since it's stock android, no bloatware from carriers, what are the benefits to rooting a Nexus? I've never messed with the clocking of the phones. I mainly enjoyed it for customization and DPI.
It may seem like dumb questions but while I may not be tech dumb I'm no dev!

To my knowledge, it is impossible to change the DPI - or pretty much anything - without first rooting or flashing a custom firmware.

The stock OS has options under Display and also Accessibility to raise the size of display fonts. You may find this more satisfactory than changing the DPI, as the latter can screw up app interfaces.

Thanks, I will try this first. I've changed the DPI on all my rooted phones so I'm used to that. I'm just not sure when I will root the N5

I would say rooting a Nexus is like rooting any device.
You are open to many more possibilities android has to offer. As you've rooted before you know that already
But since you wrote that you've only done so for certain customisation reasons then there's a lot more you can learn if you want to.
I for one need root at least. Keep it stock image but rooted is a bare minimum.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using xda app-developers app
I would at least unlock the bootloader first, so that you do not have to worry about data loss when you do root.
