[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] pb1379:
Funny thing... Installed Swype Beta (via Swype Installer, after removing the preinstalled Swype), and guess what? It installed Swype for tablets, giving me a wonderfully tiny keyboard, with the one handed option added! Saves tons of screen real estate :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] robot1000:
Had that happen to me as well

I couldn't work with the keyboard being that small. I wish there was a way of manually changing the height to suit individual needs.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] pb1379:
Agreed, the keyboard is minuscule, and I feared it being unusable at first sight, too. Yet, very surprisingly, it works marvellously, the detection algorithms and mechanics apparently being incredibly well developed. I can type reliably by tapping as well as swyping... If you didn't yet, give it a try, it's really astonishing!

No way to change the keyboard height is actually one of the main reasons why I'm looking to replace the stock Swype keyboard. The other is the horrendous popping up and hiding away of the prediction bar, drives me nuts!

There's rumour of a way to change the height, apparently, by editing one of the settings files. Didn't try that yet, though...

Google Calendar Trick

This is a Google Calendar Trick I found on the note.

If you need to move an appointment around in the day view, long press on the title of the appointment and you will be able to move it to another timeslot.

If you want to extend the appointment, then long press on the appointment box (blue box) in the day view and the size of the box will become adjustable.

This is much handier than having to open and edit the appointment to change the time or duration of the meeting.

Can anyone advice how to reset back the dial kaypad back to normal?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SpyderTracks:
Unfortunately, the touchwizz apps including dialer are not sizeable to custom dpis. The only way to retain useable function is to set one handed operation (which looks as though it is set on yours). Else you can download a custom dialer and contacts app like ex dialer.

I've tried it. It doesn't work very well. If you sync to Google, then remove a note from your phone and sync again it will not remove the same note from Google but instead bring back the deleted note to your phone again. If you want to delete a note, you have to delete it from your phone AND from Google before syncing again.

I can't really get the palm motion for the screenshot. Is there some setting you have to turn on?

Also in the Galaxy Note ad there the user seems to click his finger to take a screenshot of a video. Anyone knows how that works?

Anyway I don't think it's been mentioned that you can control the FM player with the packaged earphones. Long pressing the call button starts and stops the player and regular pressing moves you to the next station.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] galaxytab1:
No settings for palm shot, just try not to touch the screen at any point.. I mean touch the whole of it at once. Maybe, try swiping over with index finger alone. I feel better that way.

Whatever they show in ad, video screenshot is not possible.

Thanks for the radio tip.

What happens is if you disable auto-rotation in landscape (it'll turn itself back to portrait), the s-pen calibration will remain in landscape and it will draw to the left or right of where it should in portrait.

Enabling rotation (or locking it to the orientation you use when you use s-pen) should fix that.
