Thinking about purchasing a Note 10.1 - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a few questions targeted to those that currently own a Galaxy Note 10.1, first question does Hulu application work? I currently have a HP Touchpad and the application doesn't work on it. There is a work around but sometimes the browser force closes or no display shows up. The Hulu application was working fine on my HTC One S before I unlocked the bootloader. Hulu may lose a customer Besides that with the Jelly Bean leak when using split screen is there still a delay before an application responds to your touch? Last question I noticed in the Jelly Bean leak a web browser icon on the application list in the middle of the toolbar that can be windowed. Can the web browser be in a tiny window and moved around like the calculator and music player? Thank you.

Zinio for Android & PressDisplay for Android

Extract from JH3 Galaxy Tab Rom download from here. Tested work on Nexus one 2.2.1 w/ Cyanmod 6.1 ROM. only problem is that it force closes in landscape mode. I have been searching up and down for this for over half year since first heard of it earlier this year -- it is time to trade Nexus one to a bigger screen phone.
you would need to install all three apks, and only readinghub has launcher icon. from there, you can launch zinio or pressdisplay
for these who do not know yet zinio, it is the largest US e-magazine subscription provider. zinio for ios is one of the most downloaded non-game software. it has reading client for pc, mac, web flash. www.zinio.com
pressdisplay is similar to zinio only that it offers e-newspaper.
It didn't work on my Hero
is there hope for me?
thanks for the apks
tested it on my droid x, zinio couldn't display any picture
does it show pic on your N1?
and it also crashed on landscape mode.
haven't try the pressdisplaythough.
Same here
Same here. I installed on Galaxy tab and it wont work.!
Will it work on Nook Color?
working ok in my Nexus 1.
Has anyone tried using Zinio on NookColor
Has anyone tested this on Nook Color - I run the app and nothing happens.
Tested on Cruz Reader and get Force Close on ReadingHub every time. Is this 3g/4g dependent?
Works and crashes
I got mine to work loging
download my mags
open the mag and it crashes

Same here on an Archos 70.
Works quite well on my HTC Desire.
Crashes (most times) if you switch from Portrait to Landscape during a session, but zooms, switches from full view to text mode and back and swipes through pages back and forth without problem.
Been using it for a couple of weeks now.

Updated my N1 to Girgerbread, and zinio stop worked, start to appears forced to close the apps.
Works reasonably well on my motor zoom. I've encountered intermittent force closes but not enough to be discouraging. It's great in portrait mode.
Are magazines working on your Xoom? I just get crashes when I try to open it up.
Stopped updating latest magazines and now won't reinstall properly on the HTC Desire
Hopefully a supported App is coming SOON!!!!!

working on my nook color with honeycomb
Its working on my Nook Color with 2.2. never worked for me on 2.1
works great on my galaxy s, many thanks!!
Works like a charm in my SGS.
I used the instructions on GearDiary.com (can't paste the link, I'm new )

galaxy task rom 14 thoughts

Unfortunately i am not able to post in the dev forum so here my experiences with Galaxy task 14 and using the Pershoot kernel on Galaxy tab P7510.
This is a stable rom with just 3 minor flaws (which could be general android or Task Rom specific)
-stock browser back button doesn't work after one click in some sites (like www(dot)nu(dot)nl. More than one time clicking the back button is requiered)
-While using ADW launcher and closing a progrom/going back to the homescreen the wallpaper has a glitch which looks like a resize attempt or something like that.
-while playing embedded videos like in upthevideo(dot)com but also on other websites the stock browser doesn't allow forwarding the video...
I tried several other browsers without a better experience as well.
Can't wait for Task15 :>

New TF300T owner with some questions

Info: I'm running Android 4.1.1 (10.4.2.9) unlocked/rooted with a clean reinstall of the official ROM.
Hi everyone. I've had my tablet for less than a week now, and while I like it, I have some concerns.
It was an open box model (I only paid 295 usd for the 32gb version) and it acts kind of quirky. When I get a new mail notification through the gmail app, it shows the full contact picture on the left hand side of the popup, and a slice out of the middle of the contact picture on the right. It also won't show certain images in google reader (tried both the official app and gReader) until I change orientation or reload the feed.
Those two just sound like rom/app quirks, but what really worries me is that the tablet lags quite frequently (choppy framerate and delayed actions). The overall performance just doesn't seem up to par for the hardware. I'll have random 1-2 second lock ups (OS wide). Double taps on the keyboard from time to time (stock keyboard and thumb keyboard 4). Movies have frequent skips (default player).
Anyway, I'm just posting to see if it sounds like I need to return the tablet or does this just come with the territory? I apologize for my ignorance, but this is my first tablet and first experience with anything above Android 2.3.7

I believe that once Asus rolls out JB to all transformer tabs (dunno bout 101) they will work on the kernel, which is where the lockups and stuff come from

Update: I just went in and removed a lot of bloat. So far, the tablet is performing fantastically! I just can't wait to get CM9 or 10 on it. =D
Just curious...what all did you remove?

Sorry its taken me so long to respond. Been kinda busy. I'll list everything I removed, but be warned; Asus Customized Settings no longer works. Also, you have to get a notification (any notification will do!) before the menu you get by tapping your clock works after a reboot.
I removed: (.apk and .odex when applicable)

If anyone knows how to fix my Asus Customized Settings, I'd appreciate the info! If not, its a small price to pay for the performance boost. =P
Here's a topic that shows bloatware that's safe to remove, but I couldn't follow it because my phone won't display it properly, so I just had to go guerilla on it.

Cyanogenmod for Galaxy Note 10.1

Hi all,
I recently got my self a Galaxy Note 10.1 and I'm interested in rooting it and putting Cyanogenmod 10 on it...but I'm not sure on what will happen with the features like the s-pen. What are the pros and cons of Cyanogenmod on the Note 10.1 - do you advise it, not advise it, have you tried it, what did you think and are there any videos showing the difference between Cyanogenmod and stock touchwiz on note 10.1?
Thanks and sorry for the long winded question.

Hi,
I'm not an expert but I did try Cyanogenmod once it worked great, the only thing that it's not working for me is, the HDMI out cable.
So I flashed back to a rooted stock ROM
I didn't check that they make this work yet after I restore my older ROM
the pen and everything else was working great.
hope this help a little bit
Everything will work better than stock, but you lose a few features. SPen still works, but you lose the SNote, the Peel remote function, tethering has some problem at the moment password does not work, you lose the photo grabbing feature. Lose polaris office. Nothing happens when you take the pen out. My PC does not recognise it anymore for some reason now. But it works on another PC. Something when you type it makes mistakes. Sometimes charging icon freezes, it crashed a few times already. You lose the manage connected device when tethering.
Now the better part, it's a lot faster and snappy, bluetooth is much better, connects much faster. Equaliser does not crash anymore, even via bluetooth. All the apps that was getting the "package invalid"error, is gone. Skype now works, did not on stock. I am happy with the compromises so far.

I am also interested in Cyanogenmod but havent tried it myself on a tablet.
Can anyone confirm which of these features one would lose when flashing CM10.
Will Spen pressure sensitivity and palm rejection work? that is quite important to me.
I have the N8000 which has telephony and sms ability, does CM10 support it?
I have started 'weaning' myself off most of the stock apps and some features to see if I can live without them.
I've stopped using:
Quick apps and the feature when removing stylus (Don't miss it)
Stock Internet (replaced with Chrome)
Stock Gallery (replaced with Quickpic)
Stock video player (Use quickpic)
My Files (replaced with Solid Explorer)
Snote (Snote sucks there are hundreds of good alternatives)
Music Player (Stock is actually very good, I see Opollo is available in market now)
Video Player (I use quickpic)
Some of the features that I do like and use from stock are:
Screen snapshot
screen snapshot with quick editor (press and hold snapshot button, i use that editor alot)
Peel Remote
Samsung app Store
Polaris office
Video Maker
Camera
Contacts
messaging
Phone Dialer
Gapps
Can anyone confirm if those apps/features are working in CM10, or if CM10 has its own version or other better alternatives in the market.

My note 10.1 is coming today, got any tips on how to root it?
Is there a toolbox?

Tried it but went back to stock. I would suggest waiting for stable release. One issue that stood out when I tried it was touch input wouldn't register sometimes such as tapping near the time to bring up settings.

[Q] Stock Hardware Keyboard - Alt Key Issue

Hello Friends:
After using the Galaxy S3 for 6 months or so I decided I couldn't stand not having a keyboard anymore and picked up a Relay from Amazon. It came with Jelly Bean preloaded out of the Box. I've already rooted it thanks to the fine people on this forum and though it's noticeably slower than my S3, I smile every time I get to use a keyboard again. (battery life seems pretty amazing too and I'm getting almost as much life as the genuine extended battery 3000mAh I bought for the S3)
However I'm having an issue with the keyboard. For most apps, like XDA, Messaging, Google Search Bar, etc.. the keyboard works fine. However if I am on the Internet, say for example the google home page and use the search bar on the actual page, I have to hold the alt key in to access the secondary characters instead of just pressing it once like you do normally. This becomes annoying when I want to us the @ symbol and have to hold the alt in on the left side and cross my right hand all the way to the left side of the keyboard to get that symbol. I also noticed this in the Netflix app so far.
After some searching, it appears that some Relay users experienced this problem post Jelly Bean update but my phone came with Jelly Bean preloaded so I don't have an ICS backup to go to.
Does anyone have a work around? (I can't use CM-10, if that is a solution because I depend on wifi calling all day at work)
Does anyone have the Stock ICS ROM? If that's a solution, I'll take it.
I also considered perhaps remapping the voice search key on the right side to have a second Alt key on that side of the keyboard, but I'd like to do that as a last resort.
Thanks in advance for any help or guidance.
EDIT: Sorry I didn't realize I put this in General instead of Q&A. Please feel free to move to the correct section.
RE: Alt key issue
Don't worry, CM10 is not the solution. Stock browser does same thing in it.
Check here for possible stock ROM, or I have restored my phone to ICS using Kies, not sure if that always works for newer versions of phone or not though.
What might be simpler though is use a different browser. I do not have the problem in Firefox on CM10. The ".com" alt shortcut still doesn't work, but I don't mind that much. Maybe Chrome/Opera/etc would also work?

I actually tried Chrome before to see if it would be a work around and it was not. You were right about using Firefox though, that did solve the problem! Thank you so much! Oddly enough though, the .com button does work in Firefox for me in a quick test on the Google home page.
