I think you should be able to do this with Polaris Office however it does not work very well. There are two other options, either you convert the document into a pdf and use a PDF annotator such as ezpdf or there is a new app called textmaker which allows you to mark up text like MS Word but the app is expensive although there is a free trial availableon their website at the following link:

Here are some notes I made on using Polaris for ink notations:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1856691
I haven't found another office product that allows ink annotations either. I did install MobileNoter SE HD recently. Its an unofficial OneNote app for Android that has tons more functionality than the official OneNote app, including ink annotations that will be captured and synced back to OneNote on a PC. Here is a link to that, but FYI its $15 (but worth it if you are a heavy OneNoter).

I think I remember some one mentioning sonnr scribble app. For annotations on office documents.

Thanks for the link. I checked it out. The functionality looks good, but the implementation for me is a deal-breaker. From the description of the app:
" The documents you want to annotate and share are securely stored in your Soonr Personal account in the cloud so you must be connected to the internet to access them."
So you have to store your docs on their cloud server to annotate and access them, and there is no off-line caching of those docs. Sounds like the functionality is just a gimmick to get people using their cloud services.

Not to be rude like our "VP"........ but you are in correct. You can offline cache either in office formats or the pdf(annotated format)
When you have a doc on your screen you can either back arrow to save it as annotated to the cloud account. or if while it is on the screen you can hit the upper rt corner menu and down load which will cache it. What i have noticed is the down load did not seem to work if you are just in the soonr menu and long press a file to download it that way without it on the screen open. For me it must be open on the screen and DL from upper rt menu to cache.
I DL'd this app this morning to try it so i have not played alot with it but this is what i know so far. Seems pretty good though.

Many thanks for the further insights. If you do download/cache it, can you open it in the sonnr app without an active internet connection to truly work with it offline? Or is the downloaded version "read only," still requiring an active connection to their cloud to make further annotations on the cloud copy?
I love the idea of the app, except if I have to be tethered to their cloud to use it.

yes it will work in their app, let you work on it and when you are done place it in a pending upload state until you are back on wifi. than it will update in the cloud. Still trying to work out everything- will take another look at it over the weekend.
So I was looking through my gallery today and noticed I have a ton of images downloaded or screen-shoted from Chrome that I used to send in MMS. I'm aware that in iOS you can just copy an image from Safari and paste it into a message without having to download a local copy. I would really like this functionality on my phone so I don't end up with a bunch of silly pics in my gallery.
Anyone know a solution for this?

It depends on the browser. I can do that using puffin browser. Just long-press the image, tap Share, tap SMS app or Hangouts and choose the contact.
I think not possible with Chrome.

That's what I figured. I've read that people with the stock Samsung TouchWiz browser could do this. Guess I need to try some different ones. Anyone have a recommended one that supports this function?

I can recommend you UC browser that is faster and saves more battery than chrome and has that function. Puffin Browser also does it and looks like Chrome PC version (they have a free and paid version which supports flash)
There are many other you can try like the AOSP, Firefox, Opera and Dolphin, but I'm not using them and can't confirm if those have the feature.
You are free to explore.
Hi,
I have a number of android 4.4.2 devices to set up for work and need to transfer the chrome shortcuts to all of the devices. I have these shortcuts saved on the home screen in groups
I'm looking for something like the htc transfer tool, but as I'm using Lenovo tablets this is not an option.
Any suggestions please as I dont really want to want to recreate them on all the devices ?
Thanks
Antony

I think I found something intersting for you: Stock browser sync bookmarks with desktop Chrome? ... post #28.
There it's described how to sync your bookmarks from destop to chrome app on android. With plain chrome sync feature.
Here is another thread about syncing chrome bookmarks: [How To] Export Bookmarks from chrome to Dolphin ... but maybe not exactly what you are looking for.
Thread closed and thank you.
I have a Google Voice backup(Titanium and TWRP) with my contacts that are lost from my Google account and I've been trying to recover them with all the associated data(pic/birthday/etc). I've had no luck on my own or asking elsewhere.

From the reddit thread you have
--> Disable Sync
--> Restore Backup
You can see your contacts here
--> Go to contacts app
--> Select all contacts
--> Click share button
You will get a .vcf file
--> Download .vcf file
--> Go to contacts on web and import the .vcf file.
--> They should be available on Sync again

Thats a bit weird. Contacts sync was an issue in older androids that's why I had .vcf backups
Well, I am not sure what DB google voice uses, but if it's not encrypted, you can view it in DB viewer for SQLite and export the contacts as CSV.
and probably import that into you google contacts.
Still no luck
You should save a couple copies on multiple hdds/flash drives. People forget to back up these small databases... until they're gone
Maybe there's a copy on a old sim card?

Yeah never thought to back them up. I just really hate that I can see them but have no idea how to get them to anywhere else. Unfortunately they have only ever been in my Google account.

I had a similar experience and but had backed them up. For whatever reason chunks of the contacts vanished.
It's important to keep copies that aren't on that device at all. In a blink of an eye a virus or rootkit could destroy them all.
I use multiple hdds that aren't synced at the same time so at least most of my data is safe no matter what happens. Cloud stuff can get wiped or become inaccessible too so I put little faith in it.
Maybe an old phone you have, some is better than none. Backed up on a laptop or by a forgotten app maybe?
Maybe still stored on Google... worth a try? Google backup might take a day or so to restore them and may not even indicate they were saved. May work even if backup has been disabled by enabling it again. Google's a mess.
Offer still stands

You need to search your brain if the Google backup is gone.
Maybe you backed them up long ago on another hdd or flash drive.
Samsung cloud?
A carrier based app?
Think and search. An old laptop or PC hdd?
You can't retrieve what isn't there though...

I've looked and no luck unfortunately.
I can see them in the GV app and at this point it isn't a huge deal to retype them from scratch, but at least some of the photos are irreplaceable.
