Upgraded to HC 3.2.1. No complaints. Like the new Supernote app. Just wondering why it and all the other note apps in the market have an upload option to dropbox, google docs, sugarsync, etc, but when you try to upload it says that feature is not working yet (or something similar). I've tried all of the tablet note apps and they all give you the same message, uploading ability, but won't work yet. Supernotes is the same way. What's up with this? Must be something in Android that isn't yet available. All the developers have put the feature in their app, but waiting on the technology to catch up to implement. Frustrating cause I love the Supernote app, but really need to upload to take advantage of cloud storage. My workaround is to use QuickOffice HD which handles uploads to Dropbox, Sugarsync, and Google Docs. Works great, but is more for documents and not notes.
That's strange.
I've never had a problem with any of the note taking apps saving to dropbox.
I just did a supernote test and a paint note and a regular note uploaded to drop box just fine.
might be a dumb quest but do you have qdocs app on your tab? Others have had this prob but also did not know you needed to have the app on the tab for the upload to work.
Are you referring to Google docs?
I don't know what qdocs is....I don't have that loaded on the TF.
No problems sending Supernotes to Dropbox here. Sends it as a JPG. Sends to Google Docs just fine too.
Would be nice to have background web sync of supernotes, but the Android based Sharing is great for the moment.
This app is a real product differentiator... I hope Asus have some more planned.

I think what he means is, do you have the apps for evernote, dropbox etc installed on the tablet, as the share to function wont work unless you have the apps for the options installed.
Regarding Supernotes: I tested again. What I find is you can upload a .jpg file but not a text file. It says that the text upload feature is not available yet. Such as, save the note as a .docx file and try to upload. It will not work. So, if you got text document files to upload, then what am I doing wrong??
I need text file upload for work stuff. .jpg does me no good in sharing work file notes between computers. I use the TF to take notes in many work related meetings. The text format is most needed for mobility.
Yes, I have Dropbox, Sugarsync, Google Docs, etc. loaded on my TF. I have yet to find any note app that will upload a text based note to any of these formats. Am I missing something? Also, what is "qdocs"? I can't find that app on the market.
Thanks.
sorry for the confusion...yes i meant Google docs
I can upload as text file tho on mine....Google docs.
EDIT..my bad that was a doc I only used keyboard on in supernote and it was evernote which it uploaded as a txt to.
Thanks for clarifying.
I only use drop box... no google docs.

I just switched from an iPhone 4 to the Inspire and I would like to have everything synced all the time like MobileMe. I did the whole Gmail syncing and the contacts seem to work great and the mail however I can't get the "notes" folder in the mail app to show all the notes. Any help?
First search the marketplace for "google" there are alot of addons.
I know reader is there i use it. And groups, photos etc. can also all be reached by going to www.google.com/ig and logging in. I have found no real limitation with the stock browser and igoogle yet.
Hope that helps.
unless im thinking wrong here, android doesn't really include a notepad app like iOS does. there are a few different cloud solutions, but i believe it will involve you copy and pasting your memos into a new app. i like diigo.com combined with powernote on android.
good luck
Actually I'm referring to the folders in the mail itself. On my computer it shows the notes in the folder but once I view the folder on the phone it only shows one note.
My picasa albums are syncing to the gallery app but when I try to upload new pics it says account information can not be retrieved. I went into settings and checked and there isn't a specific picasa login, only the Google one. I suspect this is the problem. Has anyone found a way to upload to their picasa album from the native gallery app?
I think this is a problem with HoneyComb. I have tried other apps from Market, like QuickPic and Picasa Tool and they all exhibit the SAME problem like the Asus's Gallery app: uploading to Picas ALWAYS FAIL. The upload box is also the same throughout these applications, so I am sure any apps that have the ability to upload to Picas uses the same function call from HoneyComb.
I am seeing more and more issues with HoneyComb... boy, Google really was rushing the table OS badly.

What's the diatribe?
As a test after finding this thread, I clicked a pic I took with my TF, tapped the share icon, and it uploaded instantly to Picasa.
Picasa uploads work just fine!
Google took their time and made it right in this case. Speaking of case... case closed.

Uploading to my Picasa album works from both internal memory and from my Lexar 32gb microsd, in case it's of any use I use the Prime! v1.4 rom and netformer kernel combination.

I have the same problem and just gave up on this. It's definitely a bug, it looks like the Picasa Uploader (that can be used by other apps besides the gallery) fails to retrieve my account data. For instance, I cannot see the list of my web albums in the dedicated dropdown menu.
It looks like it only happens to some people here, but it's frustrating.
Also, on my Froyo based phone, Picasa uploading just works fine, and the Uploader does list my albums correctly.

Works just fine. I have no idea what you are doing wrong.
Simply put, I'm in gallery, tap pic, tap share, tap picassa. Select album, upload. (inserted an old sd card and used a pic that was still on it)

I tried mine with stock 3.1 rooted, and have problem. Tried with Prime 1.5, have problem. The error I got is "Failed to authenticate". However, all my other app, like mail, gReader (RSS reader app) works fine. Also, the Gallery app CAN connect to my Picasa account and DOWNLOAD pictures FROM my account. It's just the upload that failed.
Maybe its the rooting? If Google CAN PREVENT rooted devices from renting movies from he Android Market, maybe they're doing the same thing for Picasa.
Same problem exists for me on 3.1
Hi there,
I'v updated to 3.1 and the same problem still exists for me. No difference, weather the pic is on the internal memory, or the pluged in SD card. Can't upload pictures to picassa!
Any further suggestions?
I had a similar problem with google docs
I tried numerous times yesterday and was not able to upload a document to Google docs using Polaris office. The message I received was unable to find the share. I tried this morning and it worked. Weirdness.
I have been testing the sync feature to google docs/drive of all my notes. What I noticed is after I sync the first time I try adding another word to note and sync again, it deletes what I just wrote. Please advise if you guys are experiencing this issue or advise if Im doing it wrong.
Here is what I do:
1. Create note and write something
2. Save note
3. Go back to S-Note screen where all notes are and select Sync
4. Choose the new note and click sync
So far so good. I see it in Google drive.
5. Open note back up and write a word or something
6. Repeated steps 3-4
This time, my new change has been deleted and now shows what I initially committed. ??
Hey guys, quick update. Guess Sync only works one way on S-Note which is why I had issue.
I ended up creating a dropbox account and download app called dropsync. Dropsync allows me to do 2 way sync and does so automatically. Now when I add notes, create new ones, or delete one, dropsync will ensure to sync with drop box.
Pretty legit I must say.
I use an app called Folder SYnc and it will do two way sync. Use with several Cloud accounts. There is a free version and it is a great app.

Same question here, I am asking me if it is possible to edit .snb file on Google Doc or with a Windows app. Otherwise, the sync is only a backup solution, but no more...
Im syncing them as .snb so you can just consider it a backup. At the moment, I dont think there is a PC application that will allow you to modify the files. Im hoping Samsung will make their kies software have access to open .snb files from PC.

If I edit a note that has been createdin the other device the whole thing goes wrong
the page and everything is still there but I loose the part of the note created in the original device.

This is the BEST solution. Works very well. The syncing which comes with S-Notes should be avoided at all costs. Evernote and Google Docs are very incomplete and difficult to use. Dropbox rules.
A similar solution for your PC.
The only problem in using Dropbox with your PC is that the files you want synced must be in your Dropbox folder.
Well, actually no. You can create "symbolic links" from any folder on your PC to your Dropbox Folder so that Dropbox will sync them. This can be VERY convenient if you have large document or database files you wish to keep synced but don't wish the originals to live in your Dropbox Folder.
This is VERY easy to achieve with something called "Link Shell Extension" found here:
http://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/hardlinkshellext.html#contact
Just follow the directions. It talks about doing "hard links" but I have found doing "symbolic links" works just fine. Once installed, you simply right click the folder you wish to link to drop box and select it as your link folder. Then you right click your Dropbox Folder and select that as the destination. Then if you open your Dropbox Folder it will appear that the folder you have just linked is there, but it's not, it is in its original location but now Dropbox will sync it.
Cool, right?
P.S., make sure you get your free 50 GB of space from Dropbox first

Do not be so critical, for a simple backup, it is far easier to use the sync included in S-Notes than the Dropbox solution...
IF we could use the .snb with a software on a PC, perhaps it could be interesting to use Dropbox, but really, without any possibility to edit, don't complicate your life, use simply the backup solution included in S-Notes :angel:

With all due respect you are wrong.
The built in syncing does not properly account for upstream and downstream updating.
For instance, if you use the built in sync feature you can literally never delete any notes locally as the sync action will simply restore the ones you have deleted. Try deleting a note that has been previosly synced using the stock feature then run a sync again. I reappears.
Drop Sync works properly. If you have deleted a file locally it will not replace that file when you do your sync and the deleted file will be removed from your Dropbox account as well.
As such your Dropbox becomes a mirror image of your device. This is how syncing as opposed to just backing up is supposed to work. You can also control this behavior even further in options if you like. In addition you can command Drop Sync to sync automatically in the background at regular intervals.

No Solution: Syncing / Editing and then Syncing S-Note to Google Drive?
Well, I described my issue here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2203479
Background: My company is a Google Apps for Business enterprise user and I need handrwritten to text notes for a lot of meetings. The ideal solution is using Google Keep, or S-Notes with S-Pen and then sync to Google Drive.
Situation: 1) When I use Google Keep everything works fine until I open the document in the Drive and it is a Polaris, or Kings Office file format, not Google Docs - and not editable; 2) When I use S-Note, everything works until I open, edit and try to re-save the file within Google Drive. I get an error message: "failed to save document" and then I get "Saved /data/data/com.google.android.apps.docs/cache2/......"
The Solution: I can write directly into a Googls Doc using the S-Pen but prefer using Google Keep, or S-Notes.
From reading this thread it appears no one is successfully using Google Keep with S-Pen, or S-Note to save / sync documents to Google Drive; edit those documents; and then re-save, or re-sync to Google Drive?
Thank you!
It does appear that NoteSync is the best approach to have notes SYNC with Google Drive

Out of all the services I like SugarSync the best. I can sync my S-Note folder and it will automatically sync new notes and keep them up to date if I make revisons so it is a set and forget back up solution. If you want to try it use the referral link below and we can both get an extra 500mb.

Where is the "local folder" for snote?
to sync s-note
I have tried and tried many apps and methods to sync s-note across devices. ONLY THING i have found to work.
I use a app called DS Cloud for my Synology server.
I Created a folder on the server called snote
I created a folder in my snote directory on my note 10.1 and note 2 phone.
Reason for this is IS if you sync from the default location you will sync templets There are different template Version of S- NOTE ON Each device.
So once i did the above i Told ds cloud on the desk station to share that folder .
on each device i have to sync the folder i called my notes inside the s- note folder. That way is does NOT Sync the templets and app information.
To get them to google drive. From my Disk station i sync the snote foilder with my google drive account.. This is just for a Just incase my home internet is down.
The issue your having with notes being over written between devices i think is because different s note versions..
Hope this help anyone. its only way i can get it to work properly for me.
OHH I LOVE Synology disk station.

I think you should be able to do this with Polaris Office however it does not work very well. There are two other options, either you convert the document into a pdf and use a PDF annotator such as ezpdf or there is a new app called textmaker which allows you to mark up text like MS Word but the app is expensive although there is a free trial availableon their website at the following link:

Here are some notes I made on using Polaris for ink notations:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1856691
I haven't found another office product that allows ink annotations either. I did install MobileNoter SE HD recently. Its an unofficial OneNote app for Android that has tons more functionality than the official OneNote app, including ink annotations that will be captured and synced back to OneNote on a PC. Here is a link to that, but FYI its $15 (but worth it if you are a heavy OneNoter).

Thanks for the link. I checked it out. The functionality looks good, but the implementation for me is a deal-breaker. From the description of the app:
" The documents you want to annotate and share are securely stored in your Soonr Personal account in the cloud so you must be connected to the internet to access them."
So you have to store your docs on their cloud server to annotate and access them, and there is no off-line caching of those docs. Sounds like the functionality is just a gimmick to get people using their cloud services.

Not to be rude like our "VP"........ but you are in correct. You can offline cache either in office formats or the pdf(annotated format)
When you have a doc on your screen you can either back arrow to save it as annotated to the cloud account. or if while it is on the screen you can hit the upper rt corner menu and down load which will cache it. What i have noticed is the down load did not seem to work if you are just in the soonr menu and long press a file to download it that way without it on the screen open. For me it must be open on the screen and DL from upper rt menu to cache.
I DL'd this app this morning to try it so i have not played alot with it but this is what i know so far. Seems pretty good though.

Many thanks for the further insights. If you do download/cache it, can you open it in the sonnr app without an active internet connection to truly work with it offline? Or is the downloaded version "read only," still requiring an active connection to their cloud to make further annotations on the cloud copy?
I love the idea of the app, except if I have to be tethered to their cloud to use it.

yes it will work in their app, let you work on it and when you are done place it in a pending upload state until you are back on wifi. than it will update in the cloud. Still trying to work out everything- will take another look at it over the weekend.

I have the same issue. You can't attach any thing other than images from a cloud service like Google drive using the Gmail app. Attaching local files that are on the phone works. This new integration with Drive has broken this.
Thanks for replying Kayno. I wasn't sure if it was just me doing something wrong.
A workaround is to open the PDF using drive and then save it to the phone, them use a file manager to attach it.
It was much easier to attach direct from drive though. Hopefully the app developers are on it.

Hope they fix it as I do like the new file picker integrated within gmail but that's no good if we cant attach any files other than images and videos.
Another work around is to attach your drive account to a file manager like Solid Explorer which works very well with all cloud accounts like Box, drive and dropbox. Save your file from there to your phone and then share it as a gmail attachment. I know this is also not ideal
