[Q] Dock station screensaver/widget - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone
I bought my n8000 few weeks ago, and Im pretty happy with that.
I decided to keep it unrooted and on stock rom to keep all the s-pen features and so on.
I was using few Samsung devices before (like sgn2 sgs2) and they were showing some weather/clock screensaver when the device was placed into official dock station. I bought EDD-D100BE dock and I was expecting there to be something similar. But when I place it into a dock nothing happens. Is there any option to do the same stuff on n8000 without installing custom roms? Maybe some app from market will do that?
Or I should wait till Samsung will add a new firmware version?
thanx for help

Try using Desk Clock Plus from the Play Store.

[Q] any app which makes Admin/user accounts, for kids tab2

Is there any app for tab which makes Admin/user accounts, so kids can be safe & restricted to their user account & privileges.
I am planning to buy a tab for my kid, on my phone they mess up by opening non related apps & setting changes like enabling /disabling wifi bluetooth & many other settings.
I found an app called kids place (actually its a launcher) which restricts the kids to an extent but was looking for a better option with proper control as admin has on computer.
kids place actually restricts them from the tablet interface all together, that not what I want. Interface should be available to them but they should be restricted to certain privileges, they should not be able to change settings & use apps which are not assigned to them.
if you get an tab that has jellybean, you can create 2 accounts with terminal emulator. with other account you cant change settings, atleast the more sensitive ones. you can hide apps etc

Tab2 as of now is being shipped with ICE 4.x.x version not sure if samsung will upgrade it to jellybean.
Only google nexus 7 tab is being shipped with jellybean which is already overbooked, I would have to wait for months getting that.

That would be awesome if that is true but meanwhile I found what I was looking for the app already exist but I never came across earlier neither in play store nor at xda saw anyone discussing it.
SwitchMe is a unique application for root users that allows you to log in and out of multiple installations of Android just as you would on a desktop computer.

That is good to know I can wait 2 weeks if that is happening or can buy now & update later.

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

hey guys, I'm looking at buying a few note 10.1s to use with work and I'm really interested in the Mira cast functions that ship with android 4.2. is there an update due that anyone knows from Samsung for the note to 4.2, and if there is will it support Mira cast?
if bolt, how does Samsung's own sharing work? I really want too be able to plush a custom app we have at work upon into I TV/ projectors and clan isn't an option.

Depending on exactly what you are trying to accomplish, it may already be capable via AllShare Cast. I can show my Note 10.1 screen on multiple note 10.1 devices, I think 8 is the max (I have only had 5 going, no more too add or test), but using AllShare Cast, the other devices would display whatever my screen is displaying. This will also work for newer Samsung TV/Displays, at least natively on their "Smart TV's" from 2012 for certain. Also, their is an AllShare Hub accessory that can be purchased to do the same thing on any TV/monitor/projector with HDMI input. It works with both audio & video & while the hub is a bit expensive for older tv's ($99.00 USD), if you register a Samsung device on the Samsung website, you get a code good for %50 off up to 10 items. I used the code to get the Hub for $49.00, as well as for a Navigation & a Desk dock.
It is great for just about anything except racing or fast action games. There is a small lag, nothing major, almost unnoticeable, unless you are playing a game where a few milliseconds can be the difference between wrecking or making a turn in Asphalt. For everything else though, it is pretty sweet. I use it for my older Plasma in the media room.

Note 10.1 already support miracast via allshare cast, if your tv supports miracast it should work on it and if not buy allshare cast dongle

Perfect, thanks guys sounds like just what im after! I dont suppose there is a developer kit for allshare cast around? It would be nice to add it to an app im working on without having to move away and set it up first?

All share cast will mirror whatever is going on on your tab, it is like connecting the tab via hdmi to a screen, so if you run your app on note it will show on every connected device

Galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition launcher

Hello everyone, I wanted to know if it is possible to install the launcher of Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition, in my tablet without the need for root or recovery, maybe a modified launcher similar to that. Or, if this is not possible, I would like the launcher of Galaxy Tab 3 10.1, to look like my note 10.1 to a new Samsung tablet
If you can find the APK, then sure... Although you won't be able to push it to the system without rooting, so it'll act like any other launcher replacements out there. And you'll have to find the APK.
to Much framework related Changes won't worK If no one takes hes time to do So
Im going too look into that tomorrow today its party
I know that my files will work because note 3 file manager does but Its too Small and doesn't fit
See pictures

Installed a samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 inch in the car dash

Hi everybody, i set out to install an Galaxy tab 2 10.1 inch that i had and wasn't using in the car dashboard. And i am finished with all the bondo work and painting and everything. So now its time to setup the galaxy tab itself. So i would appreciate any advice you can share about what you think would be the best Rom for it. Personally i was thinking either CM12 or CM13. And either programing my own launcher for it ( i have an old android tv box launcher project i can probably repurpose for this ) or going the "AutoMate" way. And ofcourse the plan is to install Pushbullet for the notifications from the phone and Here maps for the gps.
Any suggestions or ideas/opinions for Rom, launchers and apps are welcome. I know that the chances of getting a bunch of "google it" responses are pretty high and for those people i have to say i have googled car tablet setups and installs for the last 2 months.
I think cm13 would be great...as you are not gonna play games....
Marshmallow would be great for your use.

Japp CM13 seems like a good choice, ive installed it today. had a litle trouble with the marshmallow gapps package that is linked in the cm13 thread, got an error message constantly so finaly downloaded gapps from opengapps.net and that one installed without any problems.
