[Q] Best app replacing a notepad at work? - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know there are plenty of threads discussing good note taking apps for school. I need an app that works great for work, specifically replacing a notepad. What do you guys use and recommend?

Without a doubt LectureNotes , I have tried S Notes first, but you will find lecturenotes does all and more. I use it at work in meetings, for minutes, updating PDF. I now take just my Samsung galaxy note 10.1 with lecturenotes on into meetings and don't even take a normal pen anymore.
Worth also getting PDFView by same company, for the pdf annotations.
I have to say that the developer if first class, very helpful, responsive and trys to take on new ideas.

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

Sync s-note with original note phone

Hello.
I have a Galaxy note phone,and I was planing to buy a nite 10.1 tablet. But before I want to know if is possible to sync the notes on S-note application between the two devices. I think is important.
Thanks in advance.
It looks like all you can do is just share the .snb files between the two. Not very elegant, but looks to be the best we have at the moment. Hopefully future updates will bring tighter integration.

I used Dropbox, then paid 4.99 for pro unlock key. Perfect. Syncs both ways. Very nice so far.
I think you can use a feature on the Note called wifi direct to transfer things back and forth between the two devices. Give it a try. I don't have the Note phone so i can't, but I know this feature is supposed to work. Let me know how you make out.

In theory, yes - but the S Note doesn't auto sync

To sum up answers, no. First SNore does indeed auto-sync. At least on Note devices. For integration, the SNote will not sync from one device to another. It sucks really, I have the Galaxy Note 10.1 Tablet & the Galaxy Note 2 phone, no integration, hopefully that changes!

My note 10.1 and original note ( gt-n7000) sync well with no issues.
My notes sync between my note 2 and 10.1. You have to have an active Samsung account and be logged in on both devices.
I'm trying to do exactly that, and on my Verizon Note 2 it says under the Samsung Account "Sync Disabled" with no apparent way to enable it. It looks like a carrier greyed out feature. Anyone else seeing this?

Looks like I've found a way around this with Dropsync.

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.

[Q] which suits me with my course?

2 Basic Choices are the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
What I like with the SG Note 2 is it's portability. However with the SG Note 10.1, I can do video editing, note taking, and a lot more easier and it's pre-loaded with Photoshop which I think I can begin with as someone without any knowledge in photoshop (or can't I?).
Not to mention that the SG Note 10.1 has an accessory called BT S Pen, which I think will solve my problem of carrying a large phablet. Any smart ideas on how to carry the BT S Pen?
For my course, I am yet to shift to any of the 3: Game Design and Development (an IT course), Animation, or Digital FilmMaking
Also, I also consider taking a multimedia course since I want to be a concpet artist in a game company but since it's multimedia, I might not like some medias there O.O
The reason why I have those 3 is that I love to tell stories though I don't think I'm that good when it comes to writing O.O
Whenever I watch animes and or movies, I always have that feeling of making me want to do one. Specially animes. But I like games too. In short, I also need a course advise. I am an artistic type of person too
Bottomline is that I want to be a concept artist and or tell my stories through anime or movie.
So anyone there ready to help me?
Also, can you recommend an up-to-date laptop that will best match your course choice for me? (particularly Samsung - yeah, I'm a Samsung fan now xD)
**I have posted threads like this in different forums and not even one answered. So I'm really hoping someone will answer and help me the best they can. More importantly, I will eternally appreciate any response here. Thank you**
If you want to see my answer to my question, continue reading
I think I would pick SG Note 10.1 since my problem is solved with the BT S Pen.
I think I would go Game Development or Animation since I can make concept arts when I pick one of them. But I still need to hear from you -.-
If you get a good laptop then you won't need all those apps on your phablet,right?In which case,I'd go with the galaxy note 2.If you would still need them,then you would get the galaxy note 10.1,in which case there would be very little use of your laptop,right?Think about that.I would personally get a good laptop and the note 2,then I'd get the best of both worlds.But that's just me,comes down to your choice,really...I really don't know about your course,though.

Thanks for the fast reply sir.
My reason for going a phablet and a laptop is for portability. The laptop will serve as a workstation and the phablet will be for presentation purposes and a little bit of finalizing. At first I had a problem when I thought there would be no other way to answer calls since the SG Note 10.1 is large. Later did I know there's the BT S Pen which will make calls easier to answer. Not to mention, with a style xD. Honestly, I was inspired by Asus PadFone.
About the course, don't worry because I'm sure and hoping someone will say their opinions.
Thanks again...

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!
