[Q] looking for note app supporting UNDO/REDO on android - General Questions and Answers

Coming from awesome note app on IOS and very disappointed with notes app on Android and BB. Tried note everything and FiiNote and none support UNDO. If I accidentally pasted wrong text or deleted some text, it's a hell lots of effort to recover. Can anyone suggest any note app supporting UNDO/REDO?
As developer myself, I don't believe it's that hard to support this basic text editor feature.

Implementing a phone number search box, like in the SMS app

Hi XDA,
I'm writing my first Android app, an open source webtext client for Irish mobile networks. The current version of the project can be found here: https://code.google.com/p/webtextr
There's one thing I'm having trouble with though. I'd like to implement a ‘recipient’ text box, where the user can start typing the name of a contact, and after each letter is pressed, it searches their contacts database and provides a drop-down list of suggestions. Then the user could click on a name and it would insert their number into the text box. This would be just like the way it works in the stock SMS app when you go to compose a new message.
Does anyone know how to implement this? I've been looking through the source code of the stock SMS app here https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_Mms/tree/froyo/src/com/android/mms/ui. But... it's *very* complicated and not especially well commented.
Any help would be massively appreciated. Once this is added, the app will be fully functional and perfectly usable.
Bump? Anyone?
I've figured that I should use an AutoCompleteTextView. But any examples I've found online have been broken in some way, and seem to use the deprecated People class.
Is this really as hard as it seems? I'm suprised Android doesn't provide an easy way of doing this...

[Q] Joining s note mini stickies together?

I was wondering if there is a way to join s-note memos together or continuously write in s note mini. I was watching a YouTube tutorial video and taking notes while it was playing but I had to keep saving as I went which meant I ended up with 6 or 7 memos in note. I really need to be able to join them together or some how set it up so that when I get to the bottom of the page I can go to a new one or make it larger so I can keep writing. Is this possible in s note mini?
Thanks

Privacy Ace App: Is it any good?

Hello Friends,
My name is Ivaylo and I am new to the forum. I decided to make a registration, because I wanted to ask for some help from you guys. For the past few weeks, I have been looking for an app that can help me protect my personal information (Facebook, Phone gallery, Call logs, etc.) on my smartphone (currently using Samsung Galaxy S5). I have tried quite a few free apps from Google Play such as AppLock, Smart AppLock and the like. Among those, I came across this app called Privacy Ace. To be honest, I liked the design and interface of Privacy Ace. Both very pretty simple and user friendly. On the other hand the other apps I tried (i.e. Smart AppLock) offer more features (i.e. 'Observer' feature; if someone tries to access your phone and enters the wrong password a few times, the app takes a picture of that person and later on you can see who has tried to break into your phone). However Smart AppLock, for example, has kind of a clustered interface. It was really difficult for me to find out how to use the various features of the app. I really got frustrated while trying to figure out how to use it. I am not the most intelligent person, but I know how to use smartphones, if you know what I mean. Still I am looking for something that is simple to use and can get the job done.
So my question basically is: has anyone else tried Privacy Ace and is it any good? How is the app performance-wise? Should I give it a try? Feel free to suggest other apps of the same type too.
Thanks for the help in advance
Cheers
Ivaylo

[Completed] How can I extend the personal dictionary shortcut entry length on Android 4.4+

My problem is that I have no way of pasting text in this specific app which I use constantly because it won't allow you to tap & hold to paste and the keyboard I use doesn't allow for an easy, consistent, error free way of pasting (e.g: a simple clipboard button...).
My question: Is there a way to extend the length of the entry for a personal dictionary shortcut on Android 4.4. I am using a custom ROM (CM11) and am therefor on Android 4.4 with a Samsung Galaxy S4 when I could be at the most recent update. There are so many apps that boast about power to the user over literally every aspect of your device and that boast about being able to DO and SCRIPT literally ANYTHING so long as you have a rooted device, which I do have, but none that I have tried can fix my simple issue.
If there is no way I can modify the allowed text length for a personal dictionary shortcut, is there any way I could add a simple clipboard button to my current keyboard (Google Keyboard) or relatively easily create my own keyboard with similar aesthetics to the one I currently use and similar functionality while adding a simple clipboard button?
Can I create a script on my phone (rooted) that works like the personal dictionary shortcut of Android 4.4 in the sense that typing a shortcut (brb) will produce a chunk of text (longer than be right back) but that has more flexibility (is not limited to a mere ~50 characters)?
Is there any answer that would maybe possible be sufficient for anything along these lines of the questions above?
Also, this isn't very important, by why in the world does Google think that a simple, minimalistic, clipboard button is too much to add to their keyboard. Some dev made a blanket statement that whenever and wherever you want to paste text, you can always use the simple tap & hold feature. However, there are SEVERAL instances where this is NOT the case, one of which being my situation.
Finally, I realize this is XDA assist and I'm probably not posting this where I can get a sufficient answer but I have no idea where to post this on this forum. I don't want to post it in four different places because that tends to be frowned upon...

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
Yeah, it's rather a missed opportunity not to have clipboard functioned built into the AOSP keyboard, or even Google Keyboard. Although, there are keyboards out there that do. TouchPal comes to mind (as my phone is currently using it), and the Hackers Keyboard has a CTRL key, which leads me to believe that CTRL + V will work (but my tablet is upstairs at the moment).
If alternative keyboards are not your thing, the first place to ask for options would be with your device experts (in spite of the custom ROM). So I will leave this thread here:
> Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500, i9505, i9505G, i9506 > Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [HELP THREAD] Galaxy S4 | Ask any question | Noob friendly
Please note, you will need to have an XDA account to post there.
Hope this helps, and good luck!

(photo) Studio (in Samsung Galaxy S5) Installation to A70

Apologies in advance, if I'm posting in the wrong part of the form. I really do not know where in the forum to post this.
Anyway, I used to own a Samsung Galaxy S5. It has a built-in photo editor within the gallery app. It's called 'Studio'. I really love that studio app. Now that I have a new phone, Samsung Galaxy A70, I am not happy with its built-in photo editor. I still want the Studio app of the galaxy S5. There are fine tuning things the Studio app could do that the photo editor could not do.
Question: How do I install the studio app of the S5 to my A70? Is an apk available? I've been searching on google and cannot find. Please help! Thanks and I really appreciate any response.
