[Q] Export S Note Audio? - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone have luck extracting stuff from SNB files, or just exporting the audio from S Note? I have been taking all my class notes in S Note this semester, and while I can export my writing to PDF, I can't export the audio in case I want to do something with it later.

A possible solution, from a Windows PC. Sync your .SNB files to a PC somehow (Dropbox, USB cable, etc.). On the PC, change the .snb extension to .zip. Windows Explorer can then open the resulting folder. Hopefully you will find a usable audio file in there, if Samsung is using a standard audio format. But I haven't used this find audio, I just played around with it to see if changing it to .zip was a way to access the notes images without converting. It wasn't, as the note image I found was sized more like a thumbnail than a readable image.
Hope that helps.

EDIT: Just tested this with audio. Yes it works. The folder should contain another folder titled 'Media,' in which you'll find an .amr file that I was able to play on my PC with QuickTime.

rename files from .snb to .zip then open in explorer
that will solve your issue. go into the snote folder in the zip file and then the media. the .jpg files will be images of your notes.
Thanks

rename .snb to .zip
Thanks, works great.

Can I ask you how you knew (other than playing around with it) to change the extension from .snb to .zip? Just trying to wrap my head around why this works.
Thanks.

Well, when you are dealing with an unknown format for the first time, it's always helpful to open in a hex editor and check for the first bytes, which usually act as file header to indicate file type.
in .SNB file case, this translates in ASCII characters PK
which means its a package file... from where you can try to unpack it; i.e. unzip it in case it's a zip package.
or you can always have 7Zip as your best companion, and first thing that comes in mind is to try and open it as a package through the context menu to see what is there.
Then normally you should look for an xml file or any structured format file that lists the content of the package.

PK = Phil Katz

Just to set the record straight, PK does not stand for Package - it stands for Phil Katz, the inventor of the Zip format. The original program (on DOS) was called PKZip and it quickly became the standard instead of ARC ("Archive") files that had been invented by SEA (System Enhancement Associates). SEA sued Phil Katz because of his clone of their tool (and use of their trademark), which he called called PKArc (later renamed to PKPak).
So he started over and created the competing Zip format that eventually prevailed (he open-sourced the format). Unfortunately, he had a troubled life and died from an overdose of alcohol. You can read about it more at the PKware web site, wikipedia and many other sources on the web (including a somewhat angry diatribe by the founders of SEA).

It works
Thank you Very much.... Finaly i can copy my poems to Ms Word...
Thanks again...:good:

There are other online arguments too about .snb and none of them is perhaps aware of that, except one as he eventually said that you can install it on Windows 8 as of perhaps and later. But you can install it in earlier Windows for i did and it did operate at its' best practice. R.O.F.L.?

Tweaked AudioPara3 Volume and Distortion Solved

I could never hear anybody with the AT&T AudioPara4 file. I performed the registry tweak to switch to the stock AudioPara3 file. You can use Diamond Tweak to accomplish this as well with the 100db European Limit tweak. This improved the volume but distorted the speakerphone at the higher levels.
After trying a couple AudioPara3 files I decided to tweak the stock AudioPara3 ROM file. The files I tried didn't tweak the levels proportionally and/or didn't solve the issue. I've been having problems with the earpiece not being loud enough and the speakerphone distorting the call. When switching between speakerphone and the earpiece I would have to adjust the volume.
In my tweaked file I modified only the earpiece and speakerphone volumes. There are 5 volume levels for each.
The volume on the speakerphone was the same for levels 3, 4, and 5. What they did was increase the gain each level which caused clipping of the audio. What I did was shift everything up two levels and added two proportionally quieter levels to the bottom. This give none to slight clipping at the highest volume depending on the caller.
For the earpiece I shifted everything down a level and added a proportionally increased 5th volume level. This provided the additional volume I needed without clipping.
Now I can switch between the earpiece and speakerphone without having to adjust the volume level.
Make sure to backup your old AudioPara3.csv file. You will need to use Total Commander to copy the file to the \Windows directory. Afterwards soft-reset and enjoy.

I don't have a BT headset to test this with. The file is easy to tweak as it is just a CSV (comma separated value file). Don't edit with Excel as I noticed it changed the spacing in other lines. What I did was open it in Excel so it was easier to read and then changed it with notepad.
The values are stored in hex. Use the windows calculator to convert to decimal so you can get the volumes proportionally increased. Lines starting with F6 - F11 are for the speakerphone and F12 - F17 for the earpiece. I changed the rxVolume and codecRxGain columns per the post above.
There is an F18 line that states BTHEADSET but it only has one volume level. There is also F0 - F5 that are HEADSET levels. You might try tweaking those. There are also G lines at the bottom for specific vendors, but I'm not sure when they are used.
Tried your file but it saves as an excel spreadsheet its to be csv file right how to convert it then?

Tenxo,
Your Windows Operating System is set up to associates a csv file to your program Excel.
This means that in your case, Excel is the default program to open any csv file.
You might want to save the csv file to your hard disk. Browse the folder. Use your right mouse button in the windows explorer, with the focus on the csv file and open the file with another program (i.e. Notepad). You can edit it and save the new result.
rsw686's tip is to view a (copy of a) csv file using Excel as this can make it more user-friendly- readable. But never assume that edditing a csv file in Excel and saving it will be usable for other programs.

I tried that and was able to save the file with .csv but it still shows up as opens with excel although the name has changed to audiopara3.csv it still opens with excel...
Could you post the file as a csv so it could be just moved to the windows folder without extra converting.
Thanks

There is nothing to convert. You just copy / paste the downloaded file onto your device. I place it on the storage card and then use total commander to copy / paste it into Windows.

You are very correct...It shows as a excel file on my CP but on the phone it shows as correct csv file...I feel so silly for not moving it over to the phone first to check it.

Downloaded fine and copied to to the \Windows directory. Do I still need to modify the registry so the system knows to use the new tweaked AudioPara3 file?
I do not have access to a PC at the moment. When trying to dowload AudioPara3 file from thread it open in a new window in Opera on my phone.
Guess I need to download later at home.
As far as I can tell this particular file didn't make any difference on my phone. I put the file in my \windows directory and changed the registry setting to point to this new audiopar3 file and rebooted. Still sounds the same. Did I miss any steps?

Have you used diamond tweak to disable the 100db sound limitation? This can also be accomplished with a registry editor. The key to change is
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev\AcousticFile
The stock value is \windows\AudioPara4-xxxxxx.csv. The x's vary depending on the provider. You need to change this to \windows\AudioPara3.csv which will tell it to use my tweaked file.

No, I didn't use the Diamond Tweak, I simply changed the registry settings (the same ones you indicated above) from the stock \windows\AudioPara4-_att_20080703.csv to \windows\AudioPara3.csv After that I performed a soft reset.
Is this audiopara3 the same size file as the original one, 67.2k I'm just trying to make sure that the file I copied is the right one.

Mine shows 67.2k in the file explorer. You might try downloading the file from your phone and comparing it. What did you use to copy it to the \Windows directory. I know that Total Commander works well for this. I'm fairly sure you did this, but you did make sure the volume was turned all the way up when making a call?

Mine shows the same size in Explorer as well. I used Total Commander to copy the file (which I put on my storage card) to the clipboard. Then I navigated in TC to the \windows directory and did a paste. Yeah, I turned up the volume
Maybe I'll try downloading the file again. Can the file be downloaded directly to the phone or must I use a pc? When I tried it with the phone it just opened the .csv

Sounds like you did everything right. Here's a zipped version that should download directly to the phone. It could be that you might need to tweak the file louder. I bumped it up a notch which made a big difference to me, but maybe not as much for others.

[Q] Where do the files i download from IE go to?

Today I downloaded a zip file which contained some songs. I downloaded them from mediafire using my HTC hd7 which worked perfectly and I could play these songs. The problem arose when I wanted to play them again but was unable to because I could not find them. I tried using file explorer and looked in the temp folder but was unable to find them. Does anyone know where I would be able to found it?

Really? We can do that?
Surprisingly yes however if u close it you won't be able to find it again
Bump anyone know?
i have a same problem but i have 2 problem like this. first one is where is going file when download from explorer and the second one is from email attached files ??
It depends on the type of file
Documents you can do a save as and make them available in the office hub
Pictures are available in the picture hub
I don't believe you can save music and videos, those are likely being stored in temporary internet cache that you don't have access to. If the zip file was in your email, you'd be able to open it again from the email attachment (potentially without having to download it again).
That's quite retarded, why would no Microsoft staff notice these simple issues. Like the copy and paste feature....shouldn't that come with the phone without the need of an update:/
Like Apple with iTunes, they want you to handle your media with the Zune software.
I can't understand why Microsoft follow Apple?
Until WM6.5 we where kings and now with WM7 we are starting to walk again like a 2year old baby.
Because everyone liked iPhone and nobody liked WM6.5
And so Microsoft think why not to lock my new 7version so people just follow me too!!!mmmmmmmmmm
In file manager, navigate to \Application Data\Volatile\EmailAttachments\Attachments(Numbers)\

Goto \Windows\profiles\guest\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5
You'd find your file(s) in one of the folders with funny/coded names along with other Internet Explorer cache files.
Note that the \Windows\profiles\guest folder also contains other IE temp data (such as History and Cookies) should you also need them for whatever reason.

[Req] Ebook by samsung electronics

I managed to download the ebook reader from this link
zune://navigate/?appID=b90a5d54-601d-e011-9264-00237de2db9e
but now I cannot find a way to side load my books. if anyone has any idea please help. if you want I can also upload the xap file.
thank you
Update:
the program is located under Applications/Data/B90A5D54-601D-E011-9264-00237DE2DB9E
I then went to Data/isolatedStore and found the 2 books that came with the program, but when I copy my books they do not appear when I launch the program. Then I downloaded a free book from kobo, through the software, and a new folder "Digital Editions" was created with the book I downloaded.
I copied my books in that folder but still nothing. BUT, when I changed the title of one of my books to the title to the one I downloaded, it appeared in the software under the photo and title of the downloaded book, but opened my book. a small victory but not enough...
BTW it was a epub book, not pdf, I still haven't managed to open pdfs, although this program supports pdf.
in IsolatedStore, there is a file EBookstorage.xml and a EBooksettings.xml that I havent managed to copy to my computer to check what is inside; I believe that the solution lies in there. But maybe not...
for every book there is a corresponding image file, so maybe the only thing needed is the image file of the book cover...
I am using this app on a HD2 NODO rooted (Thanks Yuki) without any other problems.
if anyone can help, I would appreciate it. it will be great to have just one app to read both epub and pdf.

the app uses epub.
you need the epub and the cover image
name the books accordingly.
use isostorespy to access the isolated storage. on the root of the applications youll find the epubs(marked as unknown file, as well as some jpegs of cover art. you also find an xml file - bookstorage.xml
copy bookstorage.xml to pc and add entries for your new book. the epub and cover art must be dumped in the app iso storage root.
edit the xml to include your books... this what i did to mine

25000 .txt files - problem

Hi,
I am musician and have big lyric collection, around 25.000 files.
They are all saved in .txt format.
Since i got Transformer idea was to have it with me on my gigs instead of having huge 17inch laptop.
I tried to copy files, from external HDD, over WIFI, from SD card ... and its taking so long, last time i stopped it after almost an hour of transfer. And i think i got only around 3000 files copied.
Do you have suggestion on how to quickly copy/manage all those files on tablet? (no problems on PC whatsoever )
I appreciate your help.
Thank you.
Buy a damn fast SD card and reader, and copy the files to the SD card through the PC.
Or get an USB HDD and plug it into the TF.
Copying millions of small files always takes ages, and flash chips are especially bad at this. And the flash chips in the TF isnt exactly the fastest performing available.
Even my SSD disc on my PC slows down a lot during small-file writing (sometimes as low as 10MB/sec, compared to ~530MB/sec on larger files).
So basically, copy them within, to or from the tablets internal memory will take years. Only "solution" would be to zip all the files so you end up with 1 big zip file instead of 25k small files.
Thanks for answer.
As i mentioned, i tried to copy them from external USB Hard Drvie, as well as SD card, Class 10.
I forgot to mention that i tried to zip/rar files, copy to internal SD and then extract to a folder. Same thing happens. Veeeeery slow. Takes ages.
Yeah, the issue is youre writing to the internal memory, which isnt capable of writing very fast.
Your best solution would be to just keep the files on the USB HDD (if you got USB port for your TF) or the external SD card
Not to mention that transfers of many small files is generally the slowest of all, where large single files are generally much more efficient. No matter what you do, you still can't avoid that problem. My suggestion would be to do as others have said and connect the SD card directly to your computer, transfer them, and then put the SD in your transformer.
looks like that will be my only option
thank you guys

dont know if this method will help but, you could use 7zip to compress the files into 1 file from a PC, there is a 7zip app for android that can open it up and view the files. so you dont have to uncompressed it on the tablet
7zip http://www.7-zip.org/download.html
7zip on anrdoid https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsInJ1LnpkZXZzLnphcmNoaXZlciJd
with 25k files, i think you need database. may help make it easier to search and sort through so much data.

7zip on anrdoid https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsInJ1LnpkZXZzLnphcmNoaXZlciJd
with 25k files, i think you need database. may help make it easier to search and sort through so much data.

Tnx for tip, i will try 7zip definitely!!
Regarding Db,.. thats the problem i am trying to find db app or similar for 3 years now. Wanted to do this on my cell phone too.
On windows i simply use TreePad software and everything is in one big file, search-able(indexed) so i can search for any word inside text and i will get results in matter of seconds.
I wish there is something similar available on android

well, if you looking for a db app these isnt any out there as far as i know, BUT

you could try this. its like running a mini web server on your tf. and it allows you to make connections to sqlite, which is already built into android. so in theory you could be able to make a web app that stores your lyrics and allows you to access it via web browser on your tf (offline too).
it can run PHP, i've only used it to run web pages for demos nothing really heavy. never tried connecting to sqlite though.

if you are interested.
Tnx for answer Phil,...
I tried, and still have PAW setup on my tablet with PHP module installed.
There is option in dB program i use on Windows (TreePad) to export searchable (requires php) WebPage of my database, but looks like that their export is kinda buggy and That Exported site sometimes works sometimes doesnt. I contacted them and i am waiting for their answer.
I am still looking for something in this regards,... any other ideas or solutions is appreciated!
Thank you

[Q] [HOW TO] Content transfer - Cross Platform

How do you get to transfer in the easiest way - songs from an android device to a fully unlocked Nokia Lumia 710?
also..
Where do the attachments in my hotmail get saved on my local phone storage? I have fully unlocked L710 and HTC Titan. Someone sent me a few clips attached to hotmail. I can play it from my email attachment but would like to find the folder where it is locally stored after download, and then be able to play the content from Zune. Is there any homebrew app for such file management? I have File Explorer, but don't know where these attachments can be found, then moved so that they are playable in Zune Hub.
this is a great question that I would also like to know the answer to. There has to be some way to mount the storage and manage it from a pc like you can with Android.

I did not really bother trying to find the answer. But someone who uses Android in my family tried to send me a few clips of music that I really really wanted to hear. Now ofcourse I have got it via bluetooth and that I can access. However, he sent a few more by email as my bluetooth transfer was slow. I had presumed I can find these songs in the same place. BUT nope!
However, here is my progress.
File explorer -> Applications data -> Volatile -> Email attachments -> go to each folder. Each folder represents one attachment.
So I was happy after posting this that I found where the attachments are.
However, when I copy and paste the same under my Zune contents, I cannot see it in my Zune Hub and cannot ofcourse play it from Zune hub!
Zune on the phone uses a database of media files. Merely moving your files under \My Documents\Zune\Content\* isn't going to help. The only way that I know of to add arbitrary files is to copy them to the PC, then sync them using the PC Zune software. Nobody has yet figured out how to do it more directly, although I'm sure it's possible.
Mounting the phone as USB Mass Storage is just not even vaguely likely to happen. The amount of driver writing and re-configuration that would be needed... I don't think you realize what you're asking for. There are deinitely options, though; for example, my Root Webserver app lets you browse the phone's filesystem (including uplodaing and downloading files) from your PC. You just have to use a web browser instead of a traditional file manager.

That does add some light to the scenario! Thanks!
So does that mean that even though we do have homebrew file explorers, we cannot really control our attachments i.e. sandbox issue? I have realised in last two days that our file explorer functionally isn't same as those traditional WM6.5 or Android ones. Hence theoratically speaking yes we do have file explorer but not to its full functionality..which leads me to another question. So ideally what do you use your file explorer for?
Aside from aiding my research and testing my hacks, here are a few things I use file browsers for:
Copying ebook files (.MOBI and .PRC) to the Kindle directory.
Manually editing the Marketplace configuration files (for example, some downloads are even bigger than the 200 MB that Marketplace Config will allow you to specify).
Freeing up space on the phone's storage (deleting temprorary files of my choosing, rather than simply purging the whole phone).
Backing up application data to my PC.
Turning music files into ringtones/alarms/etc.
A number of these can currently be automated using apps, and there are others that could be more useful to other people, but that's what I've found to be useful.
Content Transfer
Well I have been in same situation , I went with wifi transfer option,caz its quite secured and helpful for content transfer, like you can use smartIO App, which is good op
