Tintin, Video Editing, Powerpoint? - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been reading a lot about the Note 10.1. Frankly, tablets are a luxury for me as I already have a decent desktop at home, and don't really like carrying more stuff than I absolutely need, when commuting 2 hours back and forth every day. And I already have the Note 5.3, which frankly is a little over rated for its s-pen integration.
But now I want the tablet, thanks to all the marvelous reviews and comments I've seen! One burning question which I have is games. I'm not a heavy gamer but there's one game which I really liked on the S2, which doesn't work on the Note: Adventures of Tintin. Can someone confirm whether this game can be installed and played in the gorgeous mode? Rather than the laughably ugly 2D mode?
Another question: how good is video editing on this tablet? I'm asking this in behalf of someone who's considering getting an ipad with imovie (spelling?).
Lastly, is it easy to create or edit powerpoint slides with the Note? Its fiddly on my phone, but I imagine it to be much better on a larger device.
TIA!

I downloaded it to my Note 5.3, backed it up and side loaded it to the Note and it comes up saying, device is not compatible with this game. Please request a refund. So it would seem it doesn't work on the Note 10.1

Of course you can create or edit powerpoint as you like and its better on device have a big screen like Note 10.0 , and it come with Polaris Office preinstalled app , more easy

Thanks for the replies. I'm kind of sad about Tintin not working on the 10.1. May I know of it runs in the"gorgeous" mode on your 5.3?
Yeah, you're right about editing ppts, it should be a lot easier on a larger screen.
Now I'm just waiting for thoughts about video editing.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app

Wow, that Tintin game downloaded over 830MB of data into the phone to even play.
anyway, I honestly can't tell if it is in gorgeous mode. I don''t see any mode setting anywhere. It looks like it is. lol

Music production

Hi all,
Anyone know of any decent music production apps? I've got Uloops but compared to Tabletop for the iPad its pretty dull.
Hope there is something a bit more feature packed avaiable on coming soon.
Cheers
I picked up SPC when it was free a few weeks ago on the Amazon Appstore. Check out the video on the market page, it's a lot of fun.
I don't know of anything in Android comparable to GarageBand on the iPad but if you do find something along those lines (or anything else of interest for that matter), be sure to post it back here!
Caustic is pretty good
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.singlecellsoftware.caustic
Nice, cheers for both of them, will give them ago.
There's a decent app called Plasma Sound HD which is kind of like a synth pad. Worth looking at if you havent already, hopefully it will work in conjunction with some of these apps
Try Reactable.
I can't figure out how to use it but I only gave it a try for 2 minutes. It's $10 but should work similarly to this:

Chordbot lets you play around with chord sequences and provides various musical styles to dress up the chord progressions. I found it helpful for musical compositions and trying out different melodies to go with the chords.
What I like in chordbot and similar apps is... there is only the name of the chord and no information what notes it contains. I never got to learning all the chords names I just use them by intuition (I'm self learned, you can hear my music on Jamendo - search for Tomasz Kucza - and in my games). On Android I tested only Caustic - it's quite fine for fun.
So, what was the ultimate verdict?
Pros and/or Cons....?
Some of these apps are a bit pricey, and I was curious to see how they worked out.
Also, what are you creating? (Genre)
Thanks in advanced.

After trying a few apps I'd say it's a waste of money - these apps are nowhere close to DAWs like Ableton/FL/Logic etc. Maybe FL Mobile will be something good, but if you really need to produce music get a laptop.
I agree they are all a waste of money for producing but they are ok for just for fun.
Might plug my pad into my studio and get caustic used as a synth cubase as theres a sound on it i want to use in a track.
Apart from that they are all a bit of fun

[Android] Droid Anime 2 - Watch Anime

We have updated Droid Anime. Droid Anime is an application that streams anime videos to your android phone.
You can download the latest version here
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.droid.animev2
If you want more anime like Naruto, Bleach, please consider buying our Pro version from our website
http://droidanime.com/Pro
We are currently testing the app before re-releasing it in the market. Would love to have your feedback.
The videos do not work on Low Res devices
Decent app and decent video quality.
It would be nice if you put up currently airing shows and just generally more shows, because 18-19 shows - which I've already seen most of - just doesn't cut it.
Nexus S i9023
Thanks. Can I have your android device model?
We just started adding yesterday. We'll be adding all over this month and the next. If it's not too much trouble, can you tell me a list of Anime we should add?
We're adding Naruto and Bleach now. Taking too long due to the large number of episodes that we have to upload and make compatible with the app.
Ive been searching an app like this for weeks. I'll try it later.
Suggestions:
How about offline watching?
Sent from my E15i using XDA App
You mean downloading Anime from the app and watch it later? We were planning to add that feature. But, since it'd put a heavy load on our servers once everyone starts downloading, we thought we'd leave that feature for the next version by which time hopefully we'll have more servers.
IF you meant watching anime from the app when there is no internet connection, that won't be possible since the app size would exceed Gigabytes. No one would download it.
Would be cool if you post here if the app works on your device.
Thanks
I have no comment

Let me ask one obvious question before even trying this: are they dubs or subs?
Because dubs suck and I will only watch subs.

Nice! Thank you for this. Works great on Sensation.
Thanks for testing it out guys.
@Orbiting234, Negrobembon
We're mostly concentrating on Subs. Except for maybe DBZ/GT and Pokemon since these two Anime were enjoyed by everyone in English Dub.
@Wolfteam20
Once we finish adding anime, we'll release the app in other languages.
@Zephiel
Thanks for finding that. We found that there is no HSOD episode 13 and we linked it by mistake.
@MasterFace
We'll be adding anime series with titles from now on. Yes, we did notice that the tap highlight is not quite right in the Anime index, but we're not able to find out why.
Thanks
Works great here. Only bummer is the small GUI.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Thanks for this. Working great on my droid charge.
Suggestion: More shows, obviously. Maybe a poster of the show, and then the episode list. I think that would look awesome, and would make the app distinctive from other streaming apps. Maybe take the approach that EZ Stream TV took, that app is awesome.
Looks nice so far
Even though I've already seen them, I recommend you to add Nichijou and Cromartie Highschool. Both because they are fun and is still enjoyable on a small screen.
And maybe a design upgrade - especially the icon - would be in it's place.
If I have more, I'll just use your site.
Works on Samsung Fascinate 2.3.5.
As many times I have seen it, Evangelion should be added.
where is the link for download ?
thanks

Suggestions for buying my first tablet (Remote connection, note-taking)

Good day guys!
I've always used a laptop as my main PC, mainly because I can bring it to university, now I would like to build a desktop and would like to use a tablet to connect remotely to my new desktop and type any notes of documents directly on my PC.
As I would be taking notes/writing documents, it would be necessary to have a keyboard dock, I'm not too sure how the thing with docks work, if only some tablets can have them or if there are universal docks.
Additionally, it would be great if the tablet could play Full HD, or 720p at the very least
Price limit could be up to $500.
Thank you very much for your help everyone!
P.S.: One more thing, separately from the hardware, what is the best app available to do remote connection?

$500 + tax? lol well here we go, You didn't ask for screen size so I'll give some 7 in ones too.
All tablets have an HD resolution, but the only one that has Full HD is the Prime Infinity. To be honest each one has a great screen. Some tablets come with a dock that's is meant for them (Asus Transformer Prime and Galaxy Note 10.1) but each tablet also can be paired with a Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse if you want. Also you can use a USB input dongle with the Note and Prime so that you can use a regular keyboard too (kind silly though =D).

Best Remote connection app is TeamViewer 7 Here's the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teamviewer.teamviewer.market.mobile&hl=en, and here's the program you install on your PC http://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/windows.aspx.
For me it works pretty much with lag doing light task. So typing and make notes should be a breeze. However, you may experience lag if you are trying to watch a movie on it. I got lag when I tried it out, but I think it is because the GPU on my device (Galaxy Player 4.0) is not powerful enough. These device either have Mali-MP 400, Tegra 3 or Tegra 2 which are far superior. So I hope this helps you, and if you want I try and post reviews of each device.
Wow! Thanks a lot! I wasn't expecting such a detailed response!
From the suggestions you gave me I had been looking at the first three, the other two look really good too! I had been leaning mostly towards the Asus, although the Note also looks tempting, I'll have to do some thinking.
I've also had the galaxy tab on my watch, but it looks like the Asus is better.
Thank you!

Lol yeah. But it isn't like super customized. I just use Go Launcher EX, and tweaked some of the objects using their theme maker. It took a while to find the images though, and I had to photoshop many of them, but it came out well.

Scroll down, and you should see it.
I was going to make a locker for it (still might) but I got kinda lazy =D
Wow! Awesome! I think I'll work on my own theme when I get my tablet!
You can get a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 refurbished on Amazon for $340. This is what i use, it has amazing battery life and a very clear screen! If you remote connect to your desktop it will waste a bunch of battery, but what you can do is type your notes on your tablet and sync them with Dropbox so they will automatically be shared with your desktop. Dropbox is AMAZING! I highly recommend it if you haven't checked it out!

[Q] Adobe Ideas for Android

I'm aware that Adobe Ideas app has been discontinued on Android but it makes me wonder if it's possible to somehow make the older app (.apk file) run on my brand new Galaxy Note 12.2. The .apk file is still floating around internet.
I tried installing it but it just wouldn't start. Is there some sort of a hack around it?
Dying to get this app.
Thanks in advance guys!

I bought this app when it 1st came out & even with the gimped Android version it was still my favorite art app. I had the original Note 10.1 & it worked fine on it so you can imagine my extreme disappointment to find out I can't install it on my Note Pro. I really hope some sort of work around gets created to rectify this. I will frequent this thread but my hopes are not high.
Have you thought about Sketchbook Ink or Ink - Sketch, paint, draw? I've used Sketchbook Ink for a while and really like the results for the most part. It's a very simple interface and for the most part everything works as expected. I prefer sketching apps like ArtFlow or Infinite Painter, but for scalable graphics you can't go wrong with Sketchbook Ink.

Yes, I've thought about using Sketchbook Ink and as far as I know, it is indeed a really good app but I would still love to get my hands on Adobe Ideas to draw some of that vector goodness. Adobe Ideas had and option to export your project in a vector based format. That's the gamechanger. Thanks for your suggestions. :good:

Ink is a great app, I love it but I gotta say for me Ideas was lot better for my needs. The smoothing was incredible & as you stated that vector goodness was delicious(although I always wished it had more than 2 layers, my only gripe with it). I want it back!

I agree completely. We should get a team together and make an app that does all the stuff that Adobe Ideas did and more. Imagine if you could outline type and edit it on a fly. That would be quite something. I guess there are a million different things that you could throw in that kind of an app. One thing is for sure, tablet market is growing really fast and designers are adopting. Well.. at least trying to do so. There is demand but no one seems to be noticing it.
I'm a designer myself and to be perfectly honest, I wouldn't mind making a UI for such an app.
How about some Inkscape? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.gimp.inkscape Judging from the reviews, it's a love/hate thing and may not work at all.

Is note 10.1 still a good option?

I'm shopping for a new tablet and I'm considering the note 10.1. Best Buy currently has them for $350. That seems like a pretty good deal.
My question is, is this still a good option? Are there good, solid, stable ROM's out there?
Is there anything else I should know. It seems like this tab has the ability to be pretty good.
Thanks for any input you have.
Sent from my NookTablet using xda app-developers app..... yup, nook

I'm using ARHD 11.1 with Boeffla kernel
You'll find no other device at the same level with Note 10.1 at that price range

I really like my note. If you want the Spen then it is absolutely great. I take so many notes on it for school and it is extremely convenient to be able to multi task during lecture. Really i use this more than my laptop. I turn off wifi (sometimes the tablet) at night and with use at school (like 2 hours a day) for notes i can get a few days out of it sometimes a week, it depends on how distracted i get during a lecture and play games Anyway, I am really glad i got this tablet. If you dont think you will use the Spen then go for something else because it really is the biggest reason to get it. And IMO it is pointless to get this tablet to install CM10 or PAC on it, because the Spen doesnt work as well after that if it even does work. Message me if you have other questions, i will try to reply...
Thanks for the replies. I wen t ahead and bought it. But if anyone else want's to throw in their thoughts on what's good and what to avoid that would be appreciated.
Welcome to our community
There are many ROMs to choose.
ARHD (that I use) is close to stock ROM.
Boeffla kernel is enhanced kernel with OC feature.
Install Boeffla Config if you flash Boeffla kernel.
Flash Noozxoide if you want sound enhancement.
Boeffla kernel also features Boeffla Sound enhancement.
Choose a case wisely before buying one.
Strong magnetic field may "damage" wacom digitizer.
For apps....
I use 2 Office suites: Quickoffice by google & AndrOpen Office
Quickoffice is an Office suite for offline & cloud (an office suite that was bought by Google)
AndrOpen Office is a ported version of Open Office (a full office suite that was a default office suite in Linux)
Linux default Office Suite now mostly is Libre Office, a fork of Open Office.
For S-Note alternative I use LectureNotes & Write
LectureNotes is Bitmap based & Write is Vector based.
For navigating I use Waze.
Very usefull to avoid traffic jam & in some country it can show you the nearest & cheapest gas price too.
That's all for now.
Just ask if you have any questions

it's useful when you are using your device in night or dark room and everybody knows after while eyes crying and even headache can appears,

It's not nearly as sharp as a full HD or UHD/Retina display, but I've had zero issues wit it, and I do quite a bit of reading and stuff on it. I wouldn't worry about the screen unless you're really picky and willing to put more money into a nicer screen.
