Love the app, you really have brought the s-pen to life!! But I notice I cannot install apk's with it running, the dialog shows, the install button is not disabled, but I cannot click it. If I disable the app I can install just fine.

I would like to see actions with just a press of the s-pen button. For example, I would like to be able to change pen colors while writing by simply pressing the s-pen button rather than having to open the pen menu.

On my Note 10.1 (JB 4.1.1, German stock rom, rooted), there is a strange bug which I could track down to SPen Control after three factory resets.
I noticed suddenly, that it was no longer possible to install .apk from outside the Play Store. The effect is/was, that when trying to install an apk from system level, the message about the already existing apk pops up (if existing) and afterwards the window showing the permission requests of the app.
There, as long as SPen Control is active, the "install" button does not accept input. The "cancel" button instead works as well as the arrows inside that window to open/close detailed views of the requested permissions.
As soon as SPen Control is terminated (stop service and exit), the button works again.
So, this is a workaround (before manually installing an app, exit SPen Control), but nevertheless, that should be fixed.

This was fixed. Please update the application.
1.1.1:
- Fixed: Samsung screenshot gesture working when disabled.
- Fixed: Install button would not work when installing from file system.

Fix was successful, my problem is solved. Thanks for an excellent implementation and the quick support.

awesome app!
But i wonder... would it be possible to Start the Service when you unplug the pen and stop the Service when you plug the pen back?

_If_ this is implemented, please make it optional. I have a second external pen (with clip and eraser) which I use and the internal one remains in place.
That's why I do not use the "power saver" feature to enable the digitizer only in case of a removed pen.

I'm investigating it and if possible I will add option for it. This only make sense if I can start application with this event. If I need to run service for it to work then it does not have any meaning, because application is "sleeping" when there are now events. Or in developers terms, thread is in "waiting" state and it does not consume cpu time.
I developed other application Gesture Control for touch gestures and despite there are more touch events that SPen events, applicatio never appears in battery stats on my devices. I don't think you will notice any battery decrease with SPen Control too.

ah sorry my fault. wrong Word!
i dont really care about the Service it's more the app in the Status bar thats annoying me!
And the Note 10.1 does Support app Start when you unplug the Pen. altough you cant choose your own app.
(But somehow its broken for me now.... maybe because i flashed another Kernel or other stuff.)

Great app! +1

I bought the application and works really well but it would be very useful (and easier) to create custom gesture by drawing them, like G for google or F for facebook for example.

Just tried this with Paranoid Android and works. Sweet now you can have SPen and not be on stock based roms. Awesome!!!

I'm working on graphical gestures. I have all engine ready, recording and recognition. Just need to finish settings activity and decide how to combine old gestures and new gestures. If I add graphical gestures, do you think it is ok to remove old path based gestures completely?

hmm, I don't see the point - I am on Omega 2.0, Holo-Launcher an Chameleon launcher, and there is the s-pen-setting where you may choose the action when pulling out the s-pen, an it works like a charme. Launches S-Note when pulling out the s-pen.
Do I miss something?

You can disable the auto-launch from the system I guess... Can't say much here as I don't have the note 10.1.

I would like to open a shortcut or bookmark that is placed on a home screen. Example: I create document in s-note or what ever app I use and save a link to it on one of my home screens so when I tap on it s-note or what ever app opens straight to the document I have started. I would like to have it so when I remove the s-pen the document opens with the correct app ready to edit.

You can choose the shortcut option in auto-launch and create a new shortcut which should be auto-launched, which will be the same one you placed on your home screen

I don't understand what you mean by "you cant create the shortcut again". The problem is I don't see a way to find the homescreen shortcut in the s-pen helper open shortcut listings.
I will checkout the app you mentioned but it seems it is only for s-note and then you have to use the name the app says and not your own document name.
BTW thanks again for a great app and you great support.

By can't create again I mean that if you cannot find it in the shortcut menu of spen helper. Currently you cannot use any shortcuts which are already on the screen. If I find any way to retrieve shortcuts which are already on the screen I'll add it in a later version

[APP] AIR Command Shortcut - Launch Air Command with a Finger click

Hello Friends,
Just want to share with you another app - Air Command Shortcut: a shortcut app that invokes the Air Command menu. I initially showed this app a few weeks ago on this post video. This is initial BETA release.
Action Memo, Screen Write, S Finder and Pen Window can now be launched with just a finger click but Scrapbooker still needs the Spen to draw a target window. When spen is inserted while clicking Scrapbooker, a preset app will open instead and when spen is detached, clicking Scrapbooker will function as normal - meaning you need to use your spen to draw a target window to be saved by Scrapbooker. A toast message will let you know when you need to use spen or not.
Pen Window will launched with a preset window size but if you bought my other app - PEN WINDOW LAUNCHER, clicking Pen Window will launched that instead so you can use your preferred window size and position.
Download it below.

Thank you @xperiacle
Worked at my end.

Awesome work bro..
wowww.. working great. keep it up.

I see someone created Air Command shortcut too (I posted mine yesterday ). Thats cool maybe you will have some better ideas how to make use of it. On topic, I noticed you have same issues that I had troubles with:
1) you change detach action (hint - restore it back).
2) you leave phone in 'Detached S Pen' state so if you open this app with finger (and you don't attach spen manually after that) it will trigger S Pen Keeper alert that you forgot to attach S Pen. (hint - I send attach intent to prevent it but maybe there is better solution).
Hope this helps.

So ..
How if you want to launch it with other apps ..
Like browser..
YouTube....etc.

It is an honour to have you here, Sir...you are indeed one of the great devs around. And THANKS for the tips.
Sorry, I know you posted first about the Air Command shortcut but I have been working on it for a few weeks now as you can see in my previous video link in the OP. I just never got to post the initial app because I am having some technical issues. I got most of the menu items working except scrapbooker which works partially for me due to system-level permission issues which I am still trying to fix without having to mod any system file and if possible without the need for root. Apart from that, it seems most are working. I will probably offer the user the option to change some of the menu items. So instead of Scrapbooker or S Finder, may be they would like to launch their favourite app instead. Again, thanks for all your work. Keep rocking.

What do you mean launch it with other apps? Do you mean change the menu items with like browser/youtube or launch the menu items at the same time launch other apps like browser/youtube in one click? If you mean both, yes it is possible but I am still trying to iron out some technical issues. The app in the OP doesn't include those options yet. It is just the basic shortcut app but the final release may or may not offer those options mentioned depending on how I would be able to fix some issues.
The thing is I am still exploring because I don't know what KitKat brings. It seems a lot has changed internally. I haven't tried it yet as I am waiting for my region's official release.
Anyway, I will update the one in the OP with some more features soon.

It cool that you are working on it too. I didn't imply anything when I said I posted it. Its not an original idea or something. I just wanted to point out issues that I had and see if you found better solutions. Keep up the good work :good:

I just updated Air Command Shortcut app with some fixes. Action Memo, Screen Write, S Finder and Pen Window can now be opened with a Finger click. Scrapbooker still needs the spen but the app will launch a preset app when it detects that the spen is inserted. When it detects that the spen is detached Scrapbooker will launched as normal - meaning you need to use the spen to draw the window to save.

Great work again together with your Pen Window Launcher even better and your announcment is promising. One suggestio (?) I don´t use the Browser, i use chrome but his is peronal tase. Is it technicaly possible to choose what shortcut i want?
Edit: And another question. Is it possible to link the Pen Window to the Pen Window Drawer of the Pen Window Launcher instead of Pen Window Lancher itself so the Pen Window Launcher Notification wont start?

Yes I used the default browser app as the preset app when Scrapbooker menu item is clicked (when spen status is inserted) but it definitely can be changed once I finished the settings UI. It is also possible to launch your favourite apps together with any of the other menu items in the air command.
Thank you for the suggestion. I will modify the app so it will launch pen window launcher with the pen drawer directly without notification. It's just a small change, I might be able to update it in a while.
And by the way, I already uploaded a new version of Pen Window Launcher in the Play Store. @and2 Could you test and let me know any feedback. Thanks.

I reformatted phone and installed phantom rom again. After restoring apps with titanium, I got the fc again, indicating that it was a problem related to a specific app. So I tried stopping some apps. Eventually, I found out that it was wanam xposed recent update that was causing the fc. The new features added were causing the problem. So, I disabled the new features on wanam xposed and now there is no fc problem. Thanks.

great app so far i have seen.

But it works fine with the SPen as usual, when pulling it out or pushing the button.
EDIT-
Still not working after a clean rom flash and data wipe, thought i'd better make sure as i had removed many system apk's when i tried before. Any news on this?

Where can I get the donate version to access setting?

[APP][ROOT][2.2+]ScreenOff - Soft Screen Off(Respects Smart Lock Feature) v1.2/v2.0b

Hi,
Important : Requires ROOT
This is a simple App that emulates the click of Power Button.
Handy when u want to reduce wear and tear of the physical button or if the button is not working.
Currently the following method of Trigger are available:
- Using the Swipe Up Assist action which usually opens the Google Now App
- Application icon (In Launcher)
- Shortcut
- Intent Support - Use 'in.pathri.screenoff.SCREEN_OFF' as Intent action to trigger screen off from ANY App, including TASKER
Following are planned to be added:
- Widget (Is it Needed?? )
- Tasker Extension
Advantage over other similar apps in Market:
The usual 'Screen Off' 'Screen Lock' Apps that are available in market, makes the 'Smart Lock' feature introduced in Lollipop not work. Also this makes the timeout period set in the 'Automatically Lock' security settings to not work.
Since my App uses shell commands (and hence the need for Root) to emulate Power Button press, both Smart Lock and 'Automatically Lock' settings work.
Disclaimer:
AFAIK should not cause any problems in any device since nothing dangerous is being used. But still the usual disclaimer : ' I am not responsible for any damage done to your device, hand, home etc... LOL '
Have tested so far in the following Mobiles. Would be glad if others test it out in various mobiles and report here.
Nexus 5
HTC One X
Change Log:
v0.1 - 5th Jan:
- Initial Version with only Google Now Swipe gesture support
v0.2 - 8th Jan:
- Added the following:
Application launcher
Shortcut
Intent Support : 'in.pathri.screenoff.SCREEN_OFF'
v1.0 - 18th Jan:
Modified code to support more Devices. Probably must work in all Android devices irrespective of Android Version
v1.1 - 20th Jan
Shouldn't be showing in recents anymore
v1.2 - 20th March
Added icon for the swipe up gesture
Fixed a bug that was causing adding shortcut to crash in certain launchers(AFAIK GEL based)
v2.0b - 30th March
Adding a new material icon - thanks to @slider112

Regarding overriding the swipe up gesture in ur Note 3 , I think it might be possible with an Xposed module. I have never written one, so not Sure. I am ready to try to make a Xposed module, If it's ok for u to test it out in ur mobile (have no previous experience in writing Xposed module, so a word of caution )

I have tried that mod already it doesnt replaes the gesure action.

[APP] Screen Off Memo [Update: 21 Sept 2015]

It's been a while but here is another app I would like to share with those still using the Note 3 like me while waiting for the Note 6 perhaps.
Screen Off Memo is a feature I like on the Note 5 and so I decided to make one for my Note 3. I have not held a Note 5 yet so I don't know how the screen off memo works except what I saw on video reviews so the app may not be as perfect but it works for what I need it for. Any feedback would be welcome.
UPDATE - 21 Sept 2015
- fixed some issues with spen detachment starting the app even when unlocked
- toned the brightness of the icons as well as the pen strokes to reduce glare and offer more readability
- fixed issue with pen thickness in the v1.2 (some users like it thicker - I might include some settings to set user prefs in the future)
- adding new notes will trigger separate notification
Hopefully the issue specially on the Note 4/Edge has been solved.
Screen Off Memo version 1.3 can be downloaded below.
Install and RUN at least once from the app drawer so the app will be registered for the broadcast action when spen is detached. To enable the app to lock the screen when spen is attached, you must activate/enable it in Settings>Security>Device Administrator.
Based on user feedback I have retained the simplicity of the app. Just added ability to add new memo. Changed some icons for simpler ones. Cleaned up the code a bit to make it run faster and as little footprint as possible. Added option to turn off screen when pen is attached. And of course, it would now run on most Note devices (API 19 & above).
The app would also run on other Galaxy devices without spen but only when launched from the app drawer. But I am trying to find a way to trigger on the lockscreen maybe via a floating button but still a work in progress. I may work on it if there is demand but otherwise might just focus on the Note series.
At the moment I am testing an immersive mode version where no virtual buttons on the screen... just a whole screen of black space to doodle on and using sensors to toggle pen and eraser or the toolbar. Still a work in progress though but we'll see....
Anyway have fun and still your suggestions are welcome. But please keep the thread on topic.
It is a free app but please don't redistribute it nor modify it for redistribution. I don't mind if you include it in a ROM as long as the info page is intact.

Installed it on my note 3 but it just crashes when tried to open app.
If you're trying to make it work like note 5 then it should work when you pull your s-pen out while the screen is off.
And you can start writing on the screen and save it to memo app or note app.
Tried this app but it didn't work will wait to try it out if updated to new version. I don't know how to give you crash log. Sorry.
Nice Try @xperiacle
Edit - I got it working by changing my model number in build.prop SM-N9005
You might also wana look into this app @oluwaponmile

@xperiacle man you are amazing. I just installed and it works like a charm. [emoji106]

One issue I have is that when I try to reach that note in S Note, I have to pull it down, open in action memo, and then click the S Note icon on the bottom right part of action memo to open it in S Note. Is it possible to make it simpler, so that just clicking in S Note would open it in S Note?

@xperiacle I missed your genius mate. Thank you. Just a question is it possible to start the app while the screen is off or don´t i just find it? Or because i use the Note 5 Air Command?
Do you have a bit more time now? I think i´ll buy a Note Edge and wait for the Note 7 maybe there is again a sd card slot and i wanne play with the edge.

But this is normal behavior for Action Memo and this is an Action Memo.

As soon as I release Spen when phone is locked, it opens this app for me. Before this app, screen was unlocked when Spen was released

I agree, but when I write to full screen in this app, in action memo I can't see the whole text/image I have drawn in this app, I see it in a window only.

Suggestion, would that be possible to prevent the screen to wake up when the S pen is dettached and re-attached back? Like in this video [emoji14]

just installed and it works Perfect on my SM-N9005 great job m8

I tried it on a SG Note Edge 5.01. but is not working correctly. I install it and when I remove the SPen the app opens for 1-2 secs and it closes. I don't know if this could be fixed somehow.

I think the Screen Off Memo of the Note 5 does not actually mean the screen is off. It is ON but samsung designed the screen off memo app to run before the lockscreen shows up and on exit turns the screen off at the same time. We get the impression that it is off because of the black theme used which is true black on amoled screens. Samsung can do this because it can tweak framework/system code the way it likes and since it is a system app it has almost all the system level permissions to control the device lockscreen. My Screen Off Memo app does not have the system level access to control lockscreen waking up or turning off so to answer your question, NO I don't think it is possible for the app to run with screen actually off.
I also made a clone of the Note 5 Air Command with more shortcuts but I am still polishing it. Will share when I am satisfied with it.
In case you get the Note Edge, I made some edge panel apps that I have not released yet. Just let me know and I will send them to you.

Well saving and opening it directly in Snote app is possible. I am not sure how many users would want the app to behave that way but depending on the number of feedback then I might do it that way in the next update.

NO that is unfortunately not possible for a third-party app. See my reply to and2 above.

The app only works on stock Note 3 TouchWiz rom Lollipop.

Thanks for all!

Works on note 4?
