Noticed a lot of new software being released for the note as part of the Galaxy note challenge... galaxynotespenchallenge.com
My favourite so far is Papyrus, the notes are vectors, so you can copy and paste or move them. Still in beta, I'm thinking this has a lot of potential.

Thanks, I think this is much better than S-memo.
Thanks.
That is cool how you can use your finger to delete.
I like the organisation of the notes too, with multiple pages per note.
Although I haven't used it, I think Freenote has a better system for actually entering in and editing your handwriting. Whilst you're writing word, it lets you undo each stroke, similar to Papyrus, but once you finish a word, each word is saved as on object in the note and then you can select individual words and edit them. I think this would make going back and correcting spelling mistakes, poor penmanship etc. a lot easier. Plus I like the way you can highlight text in Freenote.
I think if Papyrus can get some good functions for S Pen button, that would be cool too.
Awesome... Got it installed now. It's pretty smooth, and I'm glad to see that the sheet size is essentially unlimited.
Anybody have any idea where the note files are stored? I can find the PDF file if I've tried to export the note, but can't find any sign of it before attempting to export.
I am on Criselkos ICS ROm and my pen is not recognized by Papyrus. Anyone else having this issue?
great app
Thanks, this is a great app !
I particularly like the fact that everything you write becomes a vector. I understand this is only a beta but here are a few suggestions that could possibly be implemented in a final version :
- if writing (or drawing) becomes a vector image, why not add tools that allow you to change size / orientation ?
- i noticed you can not (unless i missed something) copy/cut a part of a note to paste it on the next (or any other) page. This is quite frustrating if you've started taking a note and finally decided you'd rather have it on the next page.
I personally set my page size setting to A4 as a standard. That way when i export my files (via dropbox or directly send them through email) they appear in a "normal" size for computer users (including me for filing or archives...).
The feel of the writing is very smooth, sensitive and overall enjoyable. Keep up the good work !
Can someone please post the apk? Notes running AOSP ICS are marked incompatible on the market

I have installed it, but the s-pen does not function whilst using the app.
There is a setting that says "enable active pen" but it is greyed out, saying "this device is not active pen enabled"
Thanks!
I can't select "active pen" in settings.
ICS Stunner.26
But the pen does work!! although a bit slow.
I'm not able to download this app from the Play Store. I'm on Stunner. I think it's because Neobuddy uses Nexus framework right now and it isn't compatible with it supposedly.

Definitely still to slow but has some potential, I'm still very partial to lecture notes (ICS only), the pace that that guy update the app with tweaks is crazy, if anything he has too many settings, but the advantage is you can tailor the note taking to your style.

I created this application out of my need as I used S Memo for taking notes, meeting minutes and using the widgets as the sticky notes. I found memo to be the closest one but widgets was broken and I decided to create a new application based on SPen SDK 2.1
Features of GNote
1. Multiple widgets which remains even after reboot. Widgets are updated as soon as the corresponding note is edited.
2. Multiple pages with easy navigation
3. Update existing widgets note
4. Simple toolbar which can be hidden.
5. Notes Gallery for managing notes. (image of the first page of the note is shown in notes gallery)
6. Notes Gallery - Multiple notes can be deleted.
7. Images from gallery and camera can be added to the note.
8. Settings - option to disable back key
9. Settings - option to disable finger touch.
10.It remembers last used pen and eraser settings and uses the same when the app is launched next time.
11. Very smooth and does not lag.
12. Clicking on the title bar of widget opens a new note
13. Clicking on the body of the widget opens the note corresponding to the widget.
Compatible with ICS and JB.
Change Log
0.2
1. Add Images from camera and gallery
2. Layout changes to improve user experience
3. Added Settings and about screens
0.3
1. Background colors can be added to the notes. The same will be applicable to the widgets
2. Settings - Left Hand (Please report if not working fine)
3. Settings - Option to enable/disable pinch zoom
4. Notes Gallery now shows the count of pages in each note.
5. Note is saved without any confirmation. Further, you can save the note on demand using the save button. Note is saved when you navigate to some other activity or on exit of the application.
6. Some Icons changed (still a WIP).
7. Saves the notes faster. reduced the saving time by 50%.
an many insignificant fixes.
0.4
1. Note can be shared now
2. Note can be exported as a png image
3. Text can be added to the note
4. Tool tips are added to the toolbar buttons
5. Selected tool is highlighted in white(applicable to pen, eraser and text)
6. reverted the icons to holo light theme
7. Minor Bug fixes
If you find any bug please report it here. Do not forget to mention the Rom on which you are. Do not report bug if used other than galaxy note
You can donate to me by using about dialog from the application or from here. Donations are not necessary and will not have any effect on the development of the application.
Special Thanks to
g_aquarian for donation
Thanks to Devmil for his color chooser.
Please press thanks if you like my application. At least I deserve that
Put it on the Play Store.

Like the app, very useful! It would be nice if we could change the background color of the widget and maybe try to steamline the widget title bar, it takes up space. All in all really like it and see a lot of potential!!
Thank you!

Customization and Background colors will come later as I need to tackle some of the basic stuffs like image and text. All suggestions than can improve user experience are welcome and are potential candidates for future releases.

Nope.
Be aware that someone can do it before you and "steal" your app by this way.
There were some cases like that in the past.

I would have paid $25 but Indian users cannot sell paid apps currently on market and there is no way for me to regain those $25. Do you know any other alternate site where I can upload my application.
If i'm not totally wrong, you can upload your app to the Play Store, but you can't sell it. It has to be free. Or if you want to sell apps on the Play Store, you'll have to find a person (that you trust 110%) who can sell your app(s) on your behalf.

I searched a lot but the only answer I get is pay $25 and upload free or paid apps. Since, this application is free, its best for me to host it on XDA.
Have a disclaimer after installation which says "this app is free. If you bought yours, get a refund now." or something. XD
WOW!
really great application especially the lag-less writing with the pen. very impressive! even on the note cm10 preview
thanks very much
I think this should be part of CM 10 for note when it's ready. not of the ugly play store
the delete with finger idea is not that good I think - cause when I write I tend to touch the screen with my Palm rest accidently...
what i would like to See is an Option to disable the touchscreen and/or the back touch-Button --- so that just the pen is working

I've been playing around with Mark Wei's splendid http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688531StandOut library and thought I'd share one app I've been finding useful.
It's very basic and very beta.
FloatNote v1.0.4b
Edit:
Thought I better provide some info
This app is very simple. It floats on top of other windows and lets you scribble notes or little sketches.
I wrote it for me and my phone so I know it runs okay on a Galaxy Note under cm9.
It's written for the galaxy note stylus so pressure increases pen stroke width and the side button gives you the eraser.
Select ink colour by swiping your stylus along the rainbow thing on the titlebar (the title text shows the selected colour). Click the sidebutton when touching the rainbow to return to black.
It autosaves your note and autoloads it when the app opens again.
Resize the window with the triangle in the bottom right corner.
I'm using the android native API so it may work okay(ish) on other devices. If it does, let me know.
Enjoy...
Nikad
Latest Update:
Version 1.0.9b
Changelog:
Major rewrite - had to do away with Mark's standout library and reimplement some of its functionality.
Hide and restore from the notification bar
Share note with other apps, email, etc
Saves position, size and pen colour.
Lots of bug fixes and improvements in performance/reliability
Important:
This app requires API Level 14 or higher to detect the stylus so you need ICS.
There are known issues running under Touchwiz so stick with a CM9/CM10 variant.
Know to run okay on the Galaxy Note International, I717 and the HTC Flyer.
If anyone runs it on other devices I'd love to know!

No quick launch yet, sorry
If you've ran the app already, you can launch it from your recent apps. But...
Improvements in mind include being able to hide the window and then show it when you click on the notification (I had this on an earlier alpha and just need to add it back in).
Multi-page note: support for more than one page.
Share note (with whatever).
I'm not going to go too heavy on functionality though. The idea was to be simple and uncluttered.
Thanks for you interest...

New version on its way. Just going through last testing and tweaking so maybe tonight/tomorrow morning.
Ended up doing a major rewrite just to provide a small amount of additional functionality. But it's all good! It even ended up smaller.
We now have an app that will hide and restore from the notification bar, can share the image with other apps and loads of reliability improvements.
I haven't had a chance yet to run it on other devices or on stock roms so all I can say is it works on the Galaxy Note under CM9.

I'm glad you like it. Thanks.
If you're on a call, just pull down the status bar and click on the notification. It's a bit of an illusion that it's "hidden". Really the app is shut down and relaunched when you click the restore notification.
By the way, I see you running a stock rom. Does TouchWiz not cause problems with FloatNote?
Thanks again for your interest!
Ok. That makes sense. I can restore it from the notification bar if it is hidden.. only thing the app must be up and running before that..
I do not use Touichwiz when there are great lauchers namely Nova these days.. It has been some time since I went back to TW
I use float to be called in one of the gesture of NOVA which is great. You would do a scrolling option on the screen if possible. That will help me add longer notes rather than extending the window,,
Thanks. :good:

Hi all.
I'm running Redemption 3.2 on N8013, JB 4.1.2. Great ROM, very smooth, every app has multi - window. I have only one problem in SNote, formula match is not working. When I select it, top window opens for writing but I cannot write anything with pen or finger. Shape and handwriting recognition works well, only formula match doesn't work.
Does anybody have the same problem? It's not a deal breaker, ROM is worth it. But I'd like to use this feature, sometimes need to write formulas.
My SNote version is 5r1724FV03.
Thanks in advance!

I'm having huge troubles with the new version of SNote as well, including the formula match tool. What causes the problems is a mystery since the previous version worked so well but it's clearly some issue since many with me are having the same problems. I started a thread in the apps section here, hopefully we find a solution like an apk for the old version soon.

Hi everyone, this is my first "hello world" app on the play store. I know there is another app similar to this, but I just wanted to learn how to code so here it is .
XDA Portal is an extremely light-weight, unofficial app designed to let you quickly glance over the first new articles featured on the XDA portal.
Features:
Extremely light-weight and fast
Elegant cards ui
light on memory
Application is still in beta, so there may be occasional bugs. Again, this is unofficial.

Just downloaded it and works great for me on my SGS3 with no force closes.
One little thing regarding the visual look of the UI though. The contrast between the background and the cards should be increased slightly because it's difficult to tell where one card ends & the next one begins.
Other than that, looks great & works great! Nice job!
Sent from my Xposed CM11 SGS3 on Virgin Mobile
Works great on a N5. One tip though...make the font size for the title and the body have more of a difference. The title and body fonts aren't really easily distinguishable. Another tip would be to make the background a light gray instead of pure white so the cards don't blend in as much. (Or just use holo dark as the theme).
First of all, great.
Second: Please parse the content for links. The portal is all about linking to other content.
Keep up the good work.
Subscribed, I tend to browse the portal allot. This may just be my app for that, instead of opening tapatalk, then browsing through the list of forums, then loading, then sliding out and selecting portal and then waiting.
Super light weight, and simple. Love the UI its clean and neat, haven't experienced any problems what so ever on my Nexus 5, really good creation for you first app!
Keep the updates and new features coming.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
using a samsung S3, works great, fast, stable and sharp, now there are lot of things you can implement in the visual area, like choosing three different fonts, sizes.
In some cases, once you open an article, you can see there´s more space between the image and the main title in some articles, that´s all for now.
Keep up with this fine work !!! :good:
good work,keep it up!!!!!
Can you add Android 2.3 support? Seems interesting. :good:
nothing when settings tab is pressed!!!
minimal & fast... keep it up!
Hope You will add a switcher, in Settings, between dark and light (i use trds roms), and the a ability to load also older stories, or a cut-off number selection to choose how many entries one wanna load
@sunstreak
good job, thanks :good:
first thing I've noticed that settings on menu doesn't do anything, if you didn't added it eclipse automatically add menu item called "settings" so I suggest to remove it.
another little problem maybe cuz of the small screen is that there's a large empty space like this image:
Amazingly smooth man, i'm keeping it.
Thanks for all the feedback! V1.1 should be up soon with ability to open link in the browser and removed settings button.
