S-pen multifunction? - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all!
First post in here, ive been lurking this forum for at least 1 year, and helped me tons!
For once, i have a question about my note 10.1 that i feel you guys can help me on!
So ive been playing dead trigger on my tablet, and had a couple of hours of fun. But then i asked myself: hey, wouldnt it be cool to use the spen as an aim (basically do what my tight finger does in game) and use the button on the spen as the "shoot" button?
Basically, is it possible to map the button on the spen?
Thank you, and i hope this is a good question

I didn't know either. Cool! Thanks OP!
I love my gadgets, but I don't have the desire, nor the time, to try and check every little trick out for the first 15 hours of purchasing a device...so, thanks OP!
The "...common knowledge..." comment made me chuckle (that's right...I used the word "chuckle"...) because I started thinking of the Jimmy Falon SNL "IT Guy" character...LOL!
To the op, its common knowledge because there is already a post talking about this snapshot function in the g2x forum so....search before posting -_-
OP, Ignore the rude ones. Great info. Thank you!!
Nice i did not know this feature either! I would love to see a list of features and stuff in a stickied thread
Thanks wanted to show off my quadrant scores to some friends via mms and this tip worked great!!

Smartphone Hardware Survey

Hello Everyone! I've created a Smartphone Hardware Survey on Survey Monkey to get people's opinions on items like buttons, form factor, memory cards, and screen size. I think it will be pretty interesting to see what popular opinion shows.
I've tried to be as unbiased as I can in the creation of this survey. In a few weeks when we've gotten enough responses to have a good data set, I'll update this thread with the results. Please only fill it out once. Thanks for contributing!
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/JTSR5J9
note to the mods: If possible, I'd like permission to post this in some of the more popular device forums. Let me know, Thanks!
Completed the survey

Everyone. Thanks for all the positive talk. Sorry I couldn't get those questions in at this time. The free version is limited to 10 questions. Maybe at somepoint this might grow a little bigger. We'll see what happens for now. I've got 11 responses so far. I'm really hoping to get over 100. We'll see if that happens.

I think you can do a survey with Google Docs ( don't know how, but I know there is a way). Try using it.

Done. Would definitely like more questions. My personal stake is audio quality and GPS.
For all those wanting more questions, I don't want to add on so as to keep the results consistent. However, if this is successful I could do another one down the road.

Is there a way to auto update cracked android apps?

I've recently made the switch from iPhone to android and i'm still getting used to all of the ins and outs. I've recently seen that snappz market has been shut down unfortunately (side note anyone have another Site?). Is there a way to auto update the cracked apps like the normal apps?

Well hello there, new user who rushed into not only using the xda forums, but also downloading the XDA app and posting without reading the rules!
I believe you are going to be extremely happy with what I have to offer. You see, unlike the above post who just told you to read the rules -although in an indirect way, I'm going to be more helpful and give you the link so you don't have to bother searching!
There it is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=530
Now you have to be extremely careful with the following process: anything you do wrong may result in permanent and irreversible damage.
First of all, make sure your mouse is plugged. If not, plug it in. You might need to install drivers. Next, hover your mouse cursor (that little pointer like object on your screen) over the link I just posted above (should be in orange text). As soon as the pointer turns into a hand of some sort, RELEASE YOUR MOUSE STRAIGHT AWAY. This is crucial. Now all you have to do is to click (use the left click button!), and read the rules!
Was that so hard? I most certainly hope not
I also think I should remind you -in a very friendly way- that you have already read and agreed upon these rules. Or should have. Now imagine the cure for all diseases was written in there. You wouldn't want to miss that, huh? I don't think so. So next time, please take a minute of your -certainly precious- time reading the ****ing rules before clicking on that shiny "New Thread" button.
Thanks.

I had to make the same decision. The prime was my first choice, but imho the note 10.1 is better for school, especially since all our books are in PDF format and needed good annotation features.
Samsung I think is more stable and has better quality control.
Nothing does, but if you already read the threads, and you had the effort to post your stupid pointless comment, dont you think your comment should atleast be helpful

Let me explain to you how xda works. There is a "read first, then ask" policy. If you want to be endlessly flamed here, keep asking questions that have already been answered 100 times.
If you REALLY want to be flamed, then insinuate that your time is more valuable than ours and that we should invest in answering your question while you obviously have not.
Read first then ask.

Since you are trying to find a tablet to use at school I'd recommend to buy note 10.1. I'm also a student and I have the same motive than you. I don't own note yet since my operator here in finland doesn't have notes for sale yet. I've been reading these kind threads as mitchellvii told you to do as well. Yet I understand that not everyone has time to read forums expecially if one wants information fast buy note because of its multitasking advantages and the s-pen. Splitscreen is in my opinion the most useful thing to have in a tablet used for studying. There is a lot bigger resolutions on other tablets screens but 1280x800 is enough and even it isn't I'd still buy note because of it's ability to multitask hope this helps!

I would recommend the Galaxy Note 10.1. It IMO is really the most productively designed tablet around due to the multiscreen and the popup windows allowing you to do more things at one time.
As to those that feel they don't have time or that their time is so important that they can't offer a helpful reply, I ask you to please do not waste your time posting a responce to my questions, if you don't desire or have timetime to be helpful. I mean no one is forcing anyone to post answers to any questions.

Sorry but we feel that if a question has already been asked and answered 1000 times a new member should respect the Forum and do some research before asking the same question again. The experienced members who help a lot of people find this very annoying. It is clear from the OP's arrogant response that he made no attempt whatsoever to research prior to asking his question. Why should he do any work when we can do it for him? It's just basic forum etiquette.
Like I said, clueless is cool, lazy is not.
I used my Prime+keyboard dock to take notes all last year for my classes, but it wasn't the most reliable thing ever. I had quite a few random reboots in the middle of class and lost a good deal of notes many times.
The Infinity, as far as I know, has more or less the same issues.

Be nice. We've all made forums blunders at one time or another. He asked the same question on the TF700 forum and they were helpful (albeit one-sided). You're making us look bitter.
OP here's the link to a v-e-r-y long thread comparing the two devices. Shorthand: to get a HDMI-out port, FHD display, and an optional keyboard you're sacrificing quite a lot in compenent and build quality.

Yes, you are right. Let's encourage laziness. Sorry, my bad.
Imagine that. Mitch in the middle of another negative thread.
I hear eye of the tiger in the background.
With that said if your not going to root it. Note 10.1. No discussion needed. 10x better straight out of the box.

I recommend you spend more time helping others than criticizing those who do
I've had the prime and the note, note wins hands down. The stylus is much more useful than the keyboard. The plastic body is actually better for Wi-Fi signal strength. If you need hdmi or usb out you can always buy the adaptor.

I'm bored and my time is free so I'll tell how I came to the Note. I owned every Asus tab with keyboard. My daughter was going back to college so I was gonna let her have my infinity and keyboard. One week before she left the Note launched so we went down to Bestbuy and grabbed the first one and brought it home to try. I never really trusted the Asus because of ANRs and crashes so I didn't feel comfortable letting her take it because I know she would be *****ing about it when something went wrong and believe me with Asus its always something. She used the Note for a couple hours and said it was great so I grabbed it and put it through the paces side by side with my infinity. After about a hour I was boxing up the infinity and on my way to Bestbuy to exchange for a Note of my own. My daughter has told me many times "the Notes the best thing for school hands down" when I ask her how it compares to her iPad2 (charger caught fire burn wall in her apt and got money back) she said they're too different animals. We are both trouble free and happy and the world is a better place..... because she's not complaining

Curious. PSX4Droid.

So I've been playing some old games of mine on my SK, through psx4droid. Yes I have the original copies so no worries. But I've come to notice that I can only use up to 2 hard keys at once? I play Twisted Metal, but I can't turn and shoot while driving at the same time. Is there a way to fix this, or is this a hardware limitation on the Sidekick 4g's keyboard? Any info would be appreciated (and I think this is in the right section for a post, I appologize if not :\ )

Yes, only 2 keypresses can be detected at once. No, there's no fix for this. Many threads about many phones with same problem here on XDA. Makes me sad too...

Damn, not what I was hoping to hear. That blows :\ thank you for the reply though.
I wonder if there ever will be a fix. Hmm...
Personally I use a PS3 controller using the sixaxis driver. It's very cheap and works great. Plus the author is here on XDA.
Well... I can't always have a PS3 controller with me. That would be a bit geeky
Still, its kind of a reasonable workaround could be worse haha.
And you have a full set of controls

I remember reading something on XDA front page a few months back about a phone that was able to fix the 2 button limit. Forgive my bad memory, but all I can remember about the problem/fix is that it used the term ghost something.
Either way, it was an exciting new development on an upcoming phone back then - definitely after the time of SK4G. 6 axis + TV out.
