hey everybody,
just got my brand new cardock and played a bit with the 2.2 brand new car home..
It's pretty cool and easy to use but there's something that can make it maybe even better : what about those empty spots on the "second" page? You've got maps, settings, brightness and then 3 empties...
I'm wondering if there's any dev out there willing to mod the app and try to get those empty spots customizable;
What if we could set a direct sms , or direct call, or custom app launch on one of those empty spots? Maybe even better if we could have more than 2 pages...
This is just an idea, but I hoestly don't have the needed tech skilss to make this happen so... anybody willing to contribute/help/make the dream come true?
Everybody's contribution is well appreciated
This is somethine also I want. I want spotify on that second page.

Agreed. Would be nice to add apps to those empty spots.

Has anyone dug into the code and see if the carhome has shortcut intents?
Since there's no way to actually modifiy from the UI, I think that's how google may have coded it.
This is a great idea for a mod. I've used the Car Dock V.2 app in the past, but went back to the stock Car Home. I have zero skill in coding, but I wonder if it wouldn't be simpler to create a car home app that retains the look of the Google app, but with some similar functionality to Car Dock V.2 (long press icons to add shortcut, change icon, etc... and add maybe add extra screens). I don't know about the rest of you, but the Exit Car home annoys me too. I much preferred it in 2.1 when you could go into the standard launcher, but the home key would take you back to the car home. Just a couple of thoughts.
I know this is my first post, but I really think the car app is one of those where the stock app, just misses the boat.
So, glad to see some of you feel the same needing of a better car dock app...
I really hoped holiday time could bring a dev/coder to take a look at this thread, but it seems like some more advertising is indeed needed!

Looks like Car Home is proprietary Google software like GMail. I couldn't find any source and/or the ability to use shortcut intents
Prof-KOS is probably right, would be easier just to make a look alike
I think Google did a very disappointing job on with car dock in froyo
For now I have configured one screen of adw launcher with things I need for car mode. Then I have installed dock nothingness to disable the car home. And also car dock settings app to switch on-off Bluetooth etc...
Is it possible to even color the car dock icons, maybe with a morph???
Hey guys, did you try custom car home?
It's doing pretty much what I was looking for so if anybody is interested may give it a try
Let me know your thoughts, It's pretty basic but usefull for me

Google just updated the Android Car Home, now it's a stand alone app and customizable.
Great! Too bad I can't update through the market with CM6, guess because it's a system app..
Could anybody post the app or remind me the adb commands to do the trick?

ye, anyway I found my way out with adb so made it on time and got it from the market... is it really disappeared in the meantime? Saw also modaco tweeting about that...
[EDIT]
I pulled out the apk if anybody should need it...
I had two Car Home 2.2's in Titanium Backup-- one was "CarHomeGoogle.apk" and one was "CarHomeLauncher.apk"
I deleted both of them, and now there's no icon for Car Home-- I have a feeling I shouldn't have deleted CarHomeLauncher, but I forgot I needed to reboot after I removed CarHomeGoogle. D'oh.
Anyone have that launcher apk?
moskuito, I couldn't get that apk you posted to install by directly downloading it from here to my phone

I'm currently using QuickPic as my slideshow program, but the one thing I find is that the image don't show up 'full' screen, and I mean by hiding the bottom taskbar. Are there ANY programs out there will can do this (hide the bottom taskbar) and show images at full res of the tablet?
I'm really interested in this, too. Even some of the office programs like Polaris or Quick Office don't seem to have a way to view slideshows (like PowerPoint presentations) in a way that completely fills the 1280*800 screen.
Don't think it's possible. Probably something hard coded into Honeycomb because of the lack of hardware keys, but I could be wrong.
I have an idea how it could be helped. But I don't have time to write an app that does that - so maybe someone will. The idea is simple: rotate the screen to portrait, but show everything in landscape. That way you have nice 1200x800 screen resolution (because the stupid status bar in on the right, not at the bottom).
Also if you can - star this issue in Android bug tracker: http://code.google.com/p/android/is...=4&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars
And this one maybe too: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=15408 (but it's closed so probably noone from Google reads it).

Replying to a 2 year old thread with app recommendation....I'm going to just think your a shill. But you did make it obvious with your signature, so I guess just a evangelist for your app.
Since this thread is a live again. I use Digital PhotoFrame, because it's one of the few that support reading the photos from a network storage (NAS).

I actually use it with my Touchpad Android4.0 so that it autolaunches (via tasker) when docked.

I'm the developer of digital photo frame. First of all, thank you for buying the premium version. Some other user figured out how to autolaunch with tasker. I can't post the link yet (new user ...) but the title of the google group post is "Tasker, Digital Photo Frame Premium, and Autorun"
Anyway, the settings should be

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.
Hello guys!
I am starting a youtube video dedicated to gaming and apps on our Galaxy Note (at least for now only the Note) and I would appreciate any input, suggestions or request.
I show on this video , NOVA 3 with a PS3 controller. I am using sixaxis application for it and also attached the Nova3 profile I created for it. It can be done better but it works for now and just in case someone wants to try it.
I hope to create some intro for my videos as well so any recommendations on what program to use for editing and creating intros etc is welcome.
Well I hope you enjoy the video and I will be working hard on the channel.
Next on the list is to get improved audio by recording directly to the camcorder form the phone output. We shall see how that turns out.
Regards
Youtube Link for NOVA 3 on Galaxy NOTE
* I was unable to use the YOUTUBE option here so if anyone knows how to use it, please let me know. lol
To use the Nova3 file with Sixaxis, just unzip the file to the \sdcard\data\com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller\profiles folder.
Interesting
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wmNfpTVBfo&list=UU2aVtEgFA_ZKN4dIbyVW5dQ&index=5&feature=plcp
you can do it also with our note
Do you have many touch profiles made up for the Note? Maybe you should start up a topic. There is another thread on xda, but not many 1280x800 maps.
Thanks for the Nova one!
I do not but it sure sounds like a good idea to make more. I just want to learn how to do it better. If you notice, when moving the camera around the movement is not as smooth as when you do it with the onscreen controller so I am trying to find out how to correct that then a better layout of buttons and I will be happier with it
love the idea i just subscribed to your channel

Yeah, I made a profile for Back Stab, and it doesn't work very well. I have to tap analog 2 to move camera around.
Hopefully there'll be some updates to sixaxis controller in the near future.

Did you select Relative Touch and Wrap Mode for the "view" controller?
For the intro, I'd recommend adobe after effects. Find some intro templates and just change the text. I'm sure you'll like it

Somehow having issues.. when I make a touch map with sixaxis I can't use the screen anymore (manual finger input) to actually go to the game
That is strange. I can do everything with the touchscreen even when mapped. Are you on ICS or GB?
Can you try doing your own profile?
Oh yes, I've only been on my own profile. Haven't tried the map provided here because I like to look around with right analog etc
I'm on Stock Rooted ICS Rom with Franco Kernel 5
Hello... do i need to root may phone to use this sixaxis controller?
Hello everyone, I just finished editing a little SFX pack that is using Kylo Ren's lightsaber and wanted to share it with those who wanted to give it a try (as it's a little more savage than the classic ones).
I used this app to edit the sounds, so I can also recommend it for those who'd like to spend time making their own packs.
And if you have some nice ones to share, feel free to do so.
I just tried them. They sound great.
P.S. They work great on my Tab S7 too.
Where was this when I still had my phone? I've been doing this little trick since the Note 9. If this was able to be done two and a half months ago I would have kept my s22 ultra. Is there a way to do this and make the phone system read writable or R/O? Would love to buy it again and delete apps. Thanks.
