I can't WAIT! KitKat is destined to be totally amazing. Delicious is the perfect word for it.
I can't think of much to ask for as far as features go, but I do hope we get a perfected User Interface.
KitKat will probably have a few easter eggs, like when you tap on Settings>About Phone>Android Version, you get a KitKat animation or something. But, I do hope for amazing new features that are surprising, since Google is full of ideas and everything.

some skins ?

I'm still happy with gingerbread (rock solid). I make calls, text, surf a little, stream music, gps, etc. Will kitkat change my life?
Everytime I try some new rom, I always go back to GB. I'm sure kitkat will be nice on phones it was made for, but I'm tired of being a guinea pig for stuff that doesn't work 100% anyway.

Could be great a better performance for the batteries.

Previous SNote?

Hi guys!
I got my Note yesterday and after I've upgrade it to the new Android version I've got the new SNote as well and I'm not a fan! My palm is accidentally zooming when I rest it against the screen in a way the previous one didn't and the buttons at the top bar was much more intuitive to me.
Any other with the same problem and maybe a solution? I am open to new better apps as well, I've tried LectureNotes but as an engineering student I'm really in to the SNote shape/function/search the web functionality and I have not seen any app that's anywhere near SNote considering that.
Thanks in advice!

You can disable hand writing so only the s pen is activated, the button can be located at the lower right side of the screen just right of the add page button. The symbol is a hand. Hope this help

Thanks! That was the first thing I did, but the zoom is still active at least when the pen isn't near (14mm/~1 inch or what it might be) and in reality I don't have the pen that close to the screen at all times. The strange thing is that I didn't have these problems with the previous model, maybe they changed it in some way when they added the "pinch to delete page" functionality? And besides I liked the little arrow that completely minimized the toolbar and gave me a blank screen to write on which have now mysteriously disappeared.
I think there is an apk file with the previous version somewhere but even though I've been Google it for the last hour I can't find one! Anyone who has it on their tablet?

Hats the new Snote app. I liked the fact that the menus would hide to increase size of the page for writing, and switching from pen to eraser was jn one place on the right. All gone.

hi, i gt the same problem, eng student too, apparently alot of users have same problem, its been around before we got the update in uk, since aug 2012 as far as i know, i tried many apps, paperus might be a gd one for us but it aint as good as s note, i emailed samsung and i think if alot of users does so something might happen to improve it, or if any devs could jus take the zooming option out,
would you mind emailing samsung so that they could get a massive user feed back.

Exactly, to me the ideal is to have a blank piece of paper and be able to put the tools needed (maybe different pens and the function/shape thing) as floating boxes just like you do at CAD programs etc. SNote got just that, and to be honest SNote was a huge part of why I bought this tablet in the first place. Now it's kinda useless though...

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one having troubles or disliking the new SNote, the more that have problems the faster a solution will appear I hope. I have actually only tested LN besides SNote, mostly because LN is great in any way but SNote it isn't. It doesn't have the mathematical function recognizer nor the shape recognizer and just doesn't seems to work as well with the rest of the system. Like the "screenshot, drag and drop" that works like a charm in SNote where I can look something up at Wolfram and paste it to my notes. It does have some advantages over SNote though, I feel the pure writing is better on LN and it have for example the really simple but so useful feature of "select part/text and move it", more easy to customize background etc.
Not at all! I thought of the same thing myself, I just wanted to check if I was the only one having this problems. But the easiest and by far fastest way to deal with it would of course be if anyone had an Old SNote apk file to install. Adding a "lock zoom and pan" option won't solve the problem with the whole new version suck, and I think getting them to get back to previous versions will be difficult.

That's actually not a bug I think, you can adjust the screen brightness in many apps individually. I'm not quite sure where in the new SNote though..
Sent from my GT-N8010 using xda app-developers app
I got a reply from Samsung Sweden today where they apologized and told me that I, for a cost, could get the previous SNote version if I got the tablet to a service center. On one hand I think it's great that they actually give the customers the option of having the previous version back but on the other I think it's rubbish having to pay for it when it it because the new one is working like ****. There might be a chance that the downgrade will just be a couple of bucks but I'm afraid it won't.
I'm going to reply to Samsung once again, this time with a movie I've made that illustrates the problem with the shape and math identifier. To be continued..

This is obviously a solution however to me this isn't an option since I think everything from the general flow to the multiscreen capabilities is that much better than on ICS and even though SNote is a big part of this tablet LectureNotes is not far behind. But don't get me wrong, I wanna have both of them working!
I made a simple video that illustrates the problem with the shape and math identifier, even though that's just a small bit of the problem with the new SNote feel free to use it for example in contact with Samsung!

Thanks for your answer!
No it's not, I've got 4.1.1 and have the version 5r16958FV03 so it's not even close. However, I don't think everyone's got these strange problems and I don't have them all the time either. But it's way too often to be acceptable, especially since the precious one didn't have any problems what so ever (as far as I could tell).
Have you noticed any other bugs or are your version of SNote a stable functional one?
Another thing I noticed now when I looked up the version of SNote is that I have not one but two "programs" named SNote, the main one of 8.8MB and another one of about a quarter of a MB. Is it possible that the smaller one is the upgrade? I couldn't disable it in any way unfortunately, and when I forced it to stop nothing happened in SNote but that might be because it started up again.

I only have one issue with this version, and it seems like the battery draining is huge with this version, otherwise, it looks very, VERY good and pretty stable for me. I'm happy because finally it looks even better than the iOS version, and the emoticons button is now placed in a more comfortable area.
Thanks for the heads up.

^like he/she said. It's always been there. Works fine on the new version too.
No, I think he means the option to HIDE it. I find it an invasion of privacy (anyone who has your number can see when you're online, not only your contacts) so I don't use whatsapp more than to send my parents messages. I use Line until Whatsapp fixes that issue and bring it to a level that makes it on par with Android. Until then, I never answer people because I hate having people know when I'm using my phone to answer messages or not. One good thing in Line's favor is that it also has a PC Client version which means I get home, I can continue conversations directly, apart from the obvious privacy concern.
Come on Whatsapp, get your game on. This is an option that has been available for iOS for as long as I can remember, but you're lacking on Android.

[Leak] 4.2.2 leaks for International S3

MOD EDIT: DO NOT FLASH THE FILE IN THAT ARTICLE, IT IS FOR INTERNATIONAL S3 ONLY!
I can't wait to see what the ROM devs do with this!
Includes some of the non hardware based goodies that the S4 has.
" New features include a familiar array of lock screen widgets and unlock effects, new display modes, a re-tooled quick settings area in the notification pull-down, a new driving mode and an updated version of the S Voice assistant app. Some of the headline Galaxy S4 features like "Air view" hover-touch abilities aren't included -- that's because they're dependent on the S4's internal hardware."

While AOSP is more cutting edge, I like simple functions like Bluetooth volume working correctly as it does on TW.

I'm saying ktoonz does have a tw version of his kernel if that's what you prefer. You could try using the ViPER4Android app and mess with the settings to clean that up. I'm sure someone in that thread could point you to good settings. In not sure if fauxsound amplifies BT, but you could try that as well.

Just wanted to point you in the right direction to fix your Bluetooth issue either through ktoonz's touchwiz kernel, fauxsound app, or ViPER4Android app. You may need to tweak the settings a bit to your liking as i don't know how severe your issue is. Could be the phone hardware, a software issue, a rom issue, or the Bluetooth headset itself causing it. It's not something that's easy to troubleshoot online. Sorry if i lost you, I'm a bit sleep deprived. Sorry if I was vague or rude. On that note, bedtime. Hope you get your issue resolved.

I've never had the Bluetooth issue with a TW ROM, only AOSP.
Thank you for the insight though. Get some rest.
So once the International version gets the official update, we can probably expect to see it 3 or 4 months later thanks to Verizon.
I just read that article and watched the video. Looks like aosp but with a few design tweaks. It would be nice if they just fixed the keyboard in the update. Ha

I wish Verizon would leak more updates. Other phones I have had in the past had new roms almost every week. The Galaxy S3 has been a big disappointment in factory updates, released hardware, and support. Once Samsung neglected to release a decent wireless charge option and Verizon cold shouldered its users, I don't think I'll go back to Samsung. I miss my HTC.

Once Samsung neglected to release a decent wireless charge option and Verizon cold shouldered its users, I don't think I'll go back to Samsung. I miss my HTC.

I was looking into inductive charging. Verizon apparently offers a cover....but I can't find it.
Ha and yea the Verizon variant might see this update in September or November and it will most likely have all the cool things removed.....it's almost like they want everyone to root their phones

And that's why we root our S3's!

So once the International version gets the official update, we can probably expect to see it 3 or 4 months later thanks to Verizon.

That's an awfully optimistic time frame.........lol - guessing more like 6 months if at all. Still waiting on that premium suite.

Android Kitkat 4.4 upgreted and most popular OS for smartphone. A lot of new feature available for smartphone user.
Google also announced search technology directoly to smart user.
Below listed new and smart feature of Android KitKat 4.4
Full-screen album art:
Improved multitasking:
Extended search:
Wish I could have nexus 5 to try 4.4 gonna save money for it
tried out the cm 11 pre Alpha yesterday and it's a positive surprise!
all daily-needs are running smooth, look & feel & battery seems to be better than JB
I agree, the reduction in resources is more important to me, I only use gimmicks for about 5 minutes anyway
I think the good one at Kitkat is google use Android Runtime (ART) instead of Dalvik cache, that will help our phone runs faster
My favorite feature is the updated Google Now, and the new look too.

And less memory consumption I am assuming?

using less system resources for sure. cant wait to try it.
Better resources consumption and new flat look and feel
compatibility for lower-end devices! cant wait to try it out!
I think biggest change is using ART instead of Dalvik. It boosts performance

You can show statusbar when playing full screen games. And transperent UI looks pretty cool
My favorite feature is that it works well and is relatively bug free.

App permissions. This point is clearly one of the best.
Second best - resources. The version on my device is really light weight
I like the thing they done on it

People please, hold your horses. He's referring to the smoothness of the device as why it's not as smooth as the iPhone is. Well firstly it all comes down to the specs of your handheld device.
If you are on a popular phone or have a phone that has either Jelly Bean Or KitKat then I suggest you switch to that as it had vsync which increases the frame rate display. It makes your device run smoother than usual. If you're on a low end phone a then there isn't much you can do unless you clean up your phone a bit.

use custom rom like MIUI ROM.,
before any suggestions on how to speed up your phone or make it smoother can be answered, we need to know which phone you have ie: make, model, year, android version etc.
i say this from experience, until very recently my phone no one was supporting my phone for custom roms, no working cwm even, and still no custom kernels so to get a proper answer that will really help we need your phone details bud.
cheers

Try Nova launcher, a lot smoother than stock

Agree. One of the best launchers
If you want to increase responsiveness on your phone install Seeder. Its reccomended if you have a old or low end android device.

Either buy an iPhone, or buy a new high-end Android phone.
Or tweak your device. It's all in here.
Hey guys, even until now, instagram isn t smooth on note 10 plus, the animations on iphone are much better and they exist on instagram, not on android...why?
