Well on my rom it only works with spen. Im using criskelov6. And I read from rocketrom thread that if you do not use autobrightness it improves your batteryusage for some reason :) don't know if true but could be. So i find this quite nice exept it works only with the pen. What firmware or rom are u using? :o
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rquinn19:
I don't use Auto Brightness either so it does come in handy. 99% of the time min brightness works, but when it doesn't I can just tap and hold the middle of the status bar and slide it either way to increase or decrease. It's worked on every rom I've used and I've used almost all. Using stock, supertweaked LA6 (i dont think it has a real name).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] cs_allu:
If i just hold my finger somewhere it doesnt change brightness but i tried sliding it then it works without pen, thanks!

hi guys,

just to share some of the tips I have with the Galaxy Note.

how to use pagezipper to auto load the next page..

Imm sure some of you already know about pagezipper. The galaxy note can give that desktop experience. Page zipper is an awesome code that loads the "next page" automatically without the need of clicking next.

1. Download either Skyfire or Opera Browser from the android market (I’ve tried the other browser but they don’t seems to work)

2. Switch to desktop mode

3. Click on the bookmark button and type in any name for this function

4. At the URL column, copy and paste this code:

javascript:(function(){if(window['pgzp']){_pgzpToggleBookmarklet();}else{window._page_zipper_is_bookmarklet=true;window._page_zipper=document.createElement('script');window._page_zipper.type='text/javascript';window._page_zipper.src='http://www.printwhatyoulike.com/static/pagezipper/pagezipper_10.js';document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(window._page_zipper);}})();

5. Save the ‘bookmark’ (this bookmarklet function)

6. Click on this ‘bookmark’ whenever you need to use the function. For a test, go to google.com.sg, type in a search query and test this feature! Also, do visit any forums thread where you can test this function as well.

You may visit http://www.printwhatyoulike.com/pagezipper for the bookmarklet to be use on your desktop computer.

I am doing this for a Samsung Mobile Singapore facebook contest.. so for more tips like this.. visit http://on.fb.me/notereview, click like and subscribe the app, click on review button and look for my name Yihao Lin ..

If you need to charge your note quickly and safely from 0% - 100% in 1 1/2 hours. Then use the (original) samsung car dock charger in your car.

Tried a few times and always charges much quicker than both the usb/mains chargers.

Hi, I am SII user planning to buy Note.

can some one help me about chipset of note shipped in India??

I tasted a Note in the shop with Zdevice App the app showing me different chip set name rather than Exynos.

In my SII it showing correct Exynos name.

any help would be highly appreciated.

In portrait mode, you need to hold above the note. In landscape, it's to the left, like he wrote.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] prasad.adam:
Edit: Worked now! In fact there is a text which reads "Tap here to hide S Memo Lite". Gosh, how could I miss it :(

No luck for me. I am entering SMemo via a application (Root Explorer) by pressing SPen button and double tapping on the screen. I can scribble note on SMemo but cannot go back to the application from where I had arrrived at SMemo by either tap & hold on left side of the note or top of the note. Only way I can go back to the application is either by saving the note or canceling it.

Are you able to go back to ther application by tap & hold method? If yes, then it could be my kernel/ROM issues. A question. Assuming you can go back to the application by tap and hold method, then how do you go back to earlier note?

When I lie down lazy, holding my phone upside down---------------- s-pen turns into a magic wand !!!!!

I have spybot s&d on windows. I copied its host file entries on GNote. Don't know if it was necessary but it ain't gonna hurt.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] maxh:
Sounds like your s-pen is defective. The pressure sensor is in the s-pen itself; the phone/screen senses the pen position inductively (no contact) and when the tip presses the sensor inside the pen, it knows it's contacted the screen. If yours is activating the sensor just under the force of gravity, I'd call it defective.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M3TALLICA:
You don't have such problem ? It performs magic only when I hold the phone upside down.

Edit:

I still have 11 months left of warranty. I would use this wand for a while, then take to the service center.

*** Root users only ***

*** Root users only ***

In the system\build.prop file there is a setting:

#windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=140

the # comments it out. If you remove the # I find that the screen is even more responsive. It states it is only for Wacom device, so perhaps it is the placebo effect.

I also added this line on advice:

debug.sf.hw=1

Apparently it allows hardware acceleration for windows animation. I am not sure, bit I have noticed that Folder Organizer windows are definitely popping up much faster than they were before.

Add to home

Long press on an empty space of a home screen opens up "Add to home" menu that is otherwise called by Menu->Add.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] AspiringDeveloper:
I don't understand using an app for this. Just make a shortcut, choose 'Activities', scroll down to camera, select it opens the camera activities, choose 'camcorder', done.

Now you have a nifty shortcut with a cool icon to boot.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] roxxy:
Its because you need a rooted device for that, or maybe some kind of launcher. On stock os there is not an "activities" option..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] AspiringDeveloper:
Ah, there's always that. I rooted just yesterday and I've been using LauncherPro. I couldn't tell you which one was the culprit as I only checked that business today.

Use 'white board pro' for handwritten widget notes on the home screen. S-memo does that too, but with white board pro app, you can set background colour (which i did to black), so that it matches the wallpaper (which is black on mine). It can be transparent too.

Another tip to add to the list.

Similar to searching contact names in list view using first two letters mentioned on tip 15.

You can also search using first two letters in the apps drawer in list view. Useful to search apps if you have hundreds of apps like me. Found this accidentally just now.

I just noticed something. Don't know of this is already known. I don't even know if this is ROM or kernel tweak or not.

You can pause music by putting your palm on screen. You don't have to be in music player. MUSIC will pause as long as your palm is on the screen.

Did some experimentation and discovered that it basically needs 7 touch points. Music will resume as soon as you lift your palm.

This method does not show you the screenshot and allow you to edit it. The s-pen method does.

Both are useful, the s-pen when you want to annotate, and the palm when you do not, or for lots of images in sequence.

Your s-pen is defective. The tip is stuck, permanently triggering the pressure sensor inside of it. The pressure sensitivity happens inside the s-pen, rather than on the screen, and shouldn't happen until it contacts the screen. It seems this is a fairly common problem, but still improper action.

Yes, both are true. You hold the S pen button, then tap and hold on the screen. The palm method is a bit hit and miss unless you have big palms.

for the palm swype, it's not "flat out" on your screen, rather the "edge" of your palm that swypes. (think of it as shaking hand with someone...)

Are YOU serious? You didn't know how to take screenshot with s-pen and annotate thereafter? It is the central feature of this device! Just press the button on s-pen and touch the screen with it for a couple of seconds, you will get your screenshot ready for annotation.

another tip (if it can be classified as a tip) :

although not 100% all notes have this, most of the people seem to have a problem with touchscreen not working too well when the note is plugged into a charger. If this affects you, just use the s-pen while charging - I've noticed it doesn't suffer from this problem when charging.
