Adding apps to MultiScreen - Is it similar to the Note II? - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

On the Note II, multiscreen apps are apparently dictated by a whitelist. The folks in the Note II forum have figures out how to edit said list to include user installed apps. Does anyone have any insight into whether or not jelly bean is bringing the same sort of method for multiscreen?

I had read this somewhere and I do not know how true it is for apps to be able to do multscreen extra codes needs to be written in app for it to work irrespective of whether note will allow it to do it or not

multi screen questions

Hey, I know its kinda early as most of you probably don't even have the note yet, but I was curious on how the multiscreen feature works. Can you use it with any app or just Samsung's special apps. Also is the feature packaged as an apk in system app files as to have the possibility of being pulled from the note and ported to other tablets. Thanks, and enjoy your new tablets.

As for now, it only works with Samsung Apps.
Maybe a custom Rom can change that, or a root app.
I was wondering this as well. I'm hoping there will be some way for third party apps to make use of it, but I'm thinking that's probably a pipe dream.

Its a great feature but only works for samsung apps sadly
To make it useable for other apps, Google would need to amend Android to support a virtual split screen. As long as split screen is not part of the OS itself, it will remain a specific solution.
I think the apps that in the multi screen is quite good, you have the snote, internet, polaris and email.

To all that would like to see this in non Samsung apps: send a question to @Samsung-dev twitter asking them to publish an API for this. It may not help but it cant hurt. I for one would love to see a published API for this and the mini apps. They have one For S-Pen, why not for these features also. Should be a value add for their tablet if there were community apps that could use this stuff.
Thanks was wondering about adding apps with UEALI3. Would have been great to add ezPDF to it.
This ability is part of the touch wiz interface.. Its a propitiatory patented framework Samsung will not share it with anyone. Trying to port it can cause severe security issues as this is based on pop up notifications. This is the reason the cornerstone split screen software has not went very far.There was a big write up about this and the cornerstone software on xda tv months back. I looked and cant find it
Currently on ics it's only possible with samsung apps. But as seen with the Jelly Bean updates in India it's going to change to all apps.

Can someone who has it already tell us how the look and feel is for the split screen.
I'm thinking about buying it to replace my 8.9 tab

Is there an S Note Popup?

We have a popup window available for S Memo by double-taping S Pen. But, is it possible to change this to an S Note popup like on the Note 2?
I doubt the existing S-Note application supports this float note sort of feature.. We would need the S-note apk from Samsung Galaxy Note II

Really want someone to port it. Don't want to waste money on a new device where, besides the better S Planner and S Note, I don't think it much better than its original.

It's only a matter of time, only wait for the Note 2 to become available .
Press 2 times with S-Pen on touchscreen

IMO in new note there is hardware part which like a small push button inside SPen holder so when we remove the SPen that indicates that pen is removed from the phone. By this way only its possible for new note to recognize spen is removed and using this method and accelerometer it identifies spen is left behind, so im afraid that we the Note1 people will get this feature with jellybean.

S Memo Lite is different from S Note Popup. S Note Popup lets you move the box around the screen.

Will we see expanded multi screen capabilities similar to the Note 2

I know no one has a crystal ball, but I wondered if anyone had seen or heard anything about expanded multi screen capabilities. The Note 2 allows gmail, chrome, YouTube, Facebook, twitter and more to be split screen. I would love that even more on our device, what with the bigger screen.

Not for sure but I would guess that will come with the jb upgrade
many are using the beta update can anyone confirm the same being present ?? I think most of the updates seen in note2 should come but after a certain period of time
Paul obrien has posted the modifications to insert in the applications code to make them work in note2 multiview. Do you know if the same code can be used to make them work in multiscreen on the note 10.1??? Thanks!

Couple of questions in one thread....

First Question:
For those people running a 4.2 rom (CM10 etc) - how does this effect your use of the s pen??? Do apps like s note and s planner still work???
Second Question:
Im currently on 4.1.1, now is there a way to have the Galaxy Note 2 way of doing multiple apps (multi view/tasking whatever is called)???

One feature you'd like to see implemented in 5.0

For me, ReadyBoost when plugged into a PC or using extSD/USB drive.
Probably never gonna happen though!
International S III 16GB / Dualboot 4.1.2 Stock & Cyanogenmod 10.1 / Gokhan's SK
An option to keep specific apps in memory. If used properly, it'll give any smartphone new life.
more gestures
Well im a themer so id LOVE to see easier stock keyboard theming!
