[Q] S Pen keeper... - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is a useful feature on the note 2. Any way to get it on the note 10.1?

That would be a useful feature for sure! And as far as I can tell it wouldn't be any problem implementing considering the hardware spec. since the device doesn't actually track how far away the pen is but tells if the pen is out and the device is moving with the screen turned of. We know that the tablet feels when the pen is out and do have an accelerometer so it's just a matter of software implementation, if samsung doesn't give us the feature hopefully a third party app will.

any update on this?

Using tasker and note buddy (spen helper) you could set this up.
Setup a profile with note buddy plugin set as pen removed, and then add another condition such as gesture, and have the task be some kind of warning/vibration.

[Q] Gesture Features

Is there anyway to add the gesture features from the GS2/3 on the Galaxy s 4g? Gestures like Panning apps and widgets across home screens, putting the phone face down to hangup, and swiping hand across the screen for a screenshot. That kind of stuff.
You can do some things like that using tasker, it's on the play store

Tasker Help
Ok I really really need a step by step guide to show me how to use tasker. I want to be able to pan the widgets across home screens by tilting my phone after selecting it from the drawer (like in the Galaxy S 2) I just don't know how to apply the settings on tasker to do that. I have a vague idea but I can't seem to get it to work. I don't know which action actually addresses the widget motion across home screens

Swiftkey

Is anyone out there using Swiftkey tablet. I use it because of the Dvorak keyboard layout, mainly because the Note doesnt seeem to support keyboard layouts other than Qwerty.
When I type in Swiftkey it seems to be registering multiple keystrokes. This doesnt happen in the stock samsung keyboard or SlideIt
No problems here. Try uninstalling and then re installing

Did you try Polaris Office and S Note.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but to no avail. Still does it in these two apps.
I'm using SwiftKey without any issues. I've used both Polaris and S Note. Did you try a restart? Could be some sort of magnetic issue that might be resolved that way. Big bummer. Sorry.
I have swiftkey on all my devices except the Note10.1.
Does Swiftkey support big, small hovering and split keyboard like original keyboard ?

It supports big and split, but no hovering.
does using a keyboard other than the stock one still allow you to use the S-pen instead of the keyboard whenever you want to? I know that the stock keyboard has the setting button that you press to select text recognition for using the pen within the browser.
Think it's a common issue but I can't get SwiftKey T to learn from my Gmail.
Anyone else having this problem?? Or have a suggestion.??

I'm using SwiftKey 3, but I've been experiencing a lot of freezing+force closing when using it with Chrome.
Hovering would be nice. It offers all else that I need.
Hi all,
I work for SwiftKey. Please be sure to post bug reports (one at a time) on our public forum at support.swiftkey.net. We also welcome suggestions there. Regarding Droidcarp's note that there appears to be some difficulty with personalization, our Dev Team has been made aware of this report and they are looking into it for you.
Again, our public forum is the best place for suggestions and bug reports. This allows us to streamline the development process so we can continue to make SwiftKey as excellent as possible for you.
Thanks very much,

As long as you dropped in, HWR would be good, too. Sammy offers a hover keyboard and HWR, also. Started using their split keyboard - very nice - and offers HWR.

Any idea how to get the handwriting key to be included?
It is a shame the standard samsung keyboard doesnt support dvorak
Definitely needs handwriting support and the arrow keys like the phone keyboard.
For now it's fine to leave the stock keyboard set on handwriting and use the keyboard switcher in the notifications to switch but it would be useful for it to be integrated.
Also maybe a way to adjust the width, in split mode it seems too wide and I have big hands!
I switched to swift key also from swype today and noticed an echo like effect in snote, working fine in the xda app but broken in the snote app.

My stock Samsung keyboard can no longer provide haptic feedback after installing the SwiftKey tablet, does anyone have the same problem.? I think doesn't matter how you change the settings, and it just doesn't vibrate

[Q] shortcut to fullscreen note making

Hello good people,
One of the main reasons I bought the note 10.1 was because of it's note taking options. Finding the double tap with the s-pen, creating a small note was amazing.
Problem I have with this small note is that it doesn't have all features (for instance shape recognition) and it's too small.
Is there a way to have a shortcut to a full screen s note new note? Or does some other app support this?
I don't like it that i have to press s note, press +, select template before i can make a note...
Isn't that what the snote widget is supposed to be for? Never tried it though because I do prefer ln in most cases.

.......... that is awesome......... didn't know...
Are you rooted? When you are, I think you can use GMD spen control to create a custom gesture to a full snote.

Icon order

Is it just me or can I not customize the order I want my apps in on the smartwatch 2? I press the menu button and the only options are alphabetical and frequency used. Is anyone else having this issue or am I just missing something?
Thanks!

Only thing you can do is use Frequency, and keep tap the app you want to order and the home button. You can also tap it when watch not connected to phone.
Yeah, this seems one of the strangest missing features IMO. I don't see why you can't simply re-order them in the Smart Connect app, either - would that be so hard? Either way, the favorites thing is not so bad until the watch goes and forgets the order you had them in, which can be mighty annoying. It's happened to me only once so far but, like aseeme555076 says you can sort of force it to order them how you want.
sw2 extension: "This is the official Sony application for SmartWatch 2 SW2. It enables you to utilize all the powerful Android benefits of this innovative smartphone accessory*. With this app, you can decide how your smartphone interacts with SmartWatch 2, what app extensions are available for your watch and how they are arranged. "
I tried several times to arrange them, "click and drag" but it was impossible, they didn't move :laugh:
Anyway, I miss this feature.It would be great to put them in a certain order. I wonder why Sony didn't make it possible to arrange them from the phone in sw2 extension app.

[APP] Hovering Controls (emulates Air Gesture from S4)

If you like it, please support!
OP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2351974
The app imitates the beheaviour of Air Gesture from Galaxy S4 (some options need root like gallery swipe and browser scroll) It also emulates Quick Glance, Air Call accept etc etc..
You can also control your music/video players, start your desired app on a move, switch to previous apps, jump to launchscreen....you can check the features bellow.
I had the s4 and remember this. I now have the s5. Did it not come with this? I can't remember where the setting was on the s4 to look on my s5.

S5 comes with it, called Air Wake UP. But this APP offers more functions such as you can hovering your hand above screen to lock it.
I like it. One thing though....is there a way to disable it showing on status bar as running?
