[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimfun:
I can't seem to get the Note to move into any kind of handwriting mode (other than S Note and similar apps). I'd hoped to be able to use handwriting in Office, gmail, text messaging, etc. Any suggestion?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrADP:
split screen with s note then copy and paste or share via....
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alabama978:
I don't have a note 10.1 (yet!), but want to know if you write a complete page of notes using handwriting can it be turned into a text document using software on the device?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greenzkool:
when you click on a text field and the keyboard pops up, there is a button with a T on it to the left of the space bar. Hit that and the handwriting recognition input comes up.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjwilber:
I haven't got mine yet - arrives tomorrow, so this answer is based on what happens with the Note 5.3 that I do have. There is a setting for the Samsung keyboard which switches to handwriting input when the pen is detected. Have a look to see if that is a setting on 10.1 too. It is under Settings->Language and input-> Samsung keyboard->Pen detection
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjwilber:
Just a minor addition to this. The T might not be there - it might be a cog, or a microphone. There are three dots on that button. Press and hold the button, and you get a popup offering you text input, handwriting input, speech input, or configuration. So there are four options, and depending what the button is currently set to, pressing and holding gives you access to the other three options.

I'm waiting for Surface Pro or similar because it's the way to have an ultra book and a Note 10.1 with windows in the same package, but what do you think guys? I I mean, it's a good option or should I buy the Note and then a new ultra book with Win 8? I don't know which option is better, and also I don't know exactly the price of every option

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] iofthestorm:
It's likely that the Surface Pro will be in the neighborhood of $1000, or at least priced around the same as an ultrabook. Also, to be honest I don't think it's that likely that Windows 8 will succeed in getting a lot of touchscreen friendly apps but with Android you already have that (but it's debatable whether there are enough tablet optimized apps). Windows tablets are fairly nice for handwriting but I imagine everything else would be a pain. Of course, my last experience with a Windows tablet was one that would be 4 years old if it hadn't died catastrophically after just under 2 years, so maybe the Surface Pro will be great and Windows 8 will have a lot of touch optimized apps but I doubt it. Also you're almost certainly going to get a thinner body and better battery life with the Note than the Surface Pro. I considered the Surface Pro for a bit too but after learning that it'll be priced like an Ultrabook I decided the Note 10.1 was for me. The most important part of a PC is the keyboard IMO, I don't really see the advantage of having a tablet that runs Windows when we have a capable mobile OS with a vibrant app ecosystem already.

Edit: I figure though that if Surface Pro is amazing and the Note underwhelms, worst case I'll sell my Note 10.1 for a bit of a loss and get that instead, but I just don't think there's any reason to have a compromise device that has a Core i5 but needs to be light and thin and last long. Anything that needs a Core i5 is going to need a proper keyboard/mouse/work environment anyway.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] richB7:
I have the Samsung Series 7 Slate with Win8 on it as well as the Note. Two different devices with two different uses. The Note is for apps, watching media, playing games and such while the Slate is for doing work. The slate with apps could do both but not yet as there are not enough apps for those things I use the note for yet. The slate is a notebook replacement which the Note is not.

The slate has a touchscreen with a wacom digitizer and pen, core i5, ssd and is very fast. But it's heavy in comparison and the optional Bluetooth keyboard you have to lug around though it's small. Plus it starts around $1300 plus.

So at this time I have and use both and don't see either replacing the other soon.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] iZan23:
The main reason is for note taking and engineering windows applications, that's the main reason I want two gadgets or one which let's me do both things. Also

I want to see videos and browse the Web but is not the main purpose

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] redviper666:
Everything about this post is wrong.

1. Surface Pro is unlikely to be $1000+. The anticipated price range is 600-700. But for now we don't know.

2. Windows 8 will have a slew of touch capable and touch friendly apps coming out at launch, and by Jan 2013 (the release date for Surface Pro) will have just about everything covered.

3. The UX for Win8 is really really good. Today I was watching some videos in bed before getting out with my Note 10.1. I found it stupid that I couldn't swipe from the left to change apps and swipe from the right to get search. The split keyboard on the Note is really nice for these situations but the position of the app switcher button, the home button etc are very uncomfortable to use when using both hands.

BUT even if all these points were not present and infact were bad for Win 8:

4. The biggest feature of the Surface Pro over Note 10.1 is OneNote. There is nothing comparable on any platform. I love my note 10.1 (I have two!) but nothing compares to the handwriting support for OneNote. I can write on the page and easily convert it to text. I can take a fully handwritten page and convert that to text with minimal hassle. S-Note is a nice app but handwriting support is really far behind.

When Surface Pro is out, Note 10.1 like devices will have no chance in competing even with much (or slightly) lower price.

Which is not to say that the Note isn't incredible. It really really is. I love it. But OneNote alone changes the game.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Craiq:
Can you plz describe more in detail in which situation you are using the slate for work what the note can't do

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] HasC:
For this feature there is an excellent app called 7 notes on Google play, you can hand write your notes within the dedicated app and convert them to text later on. Text can also be formatted although limited however the handwriting recognition is really excellent. One note no doubt is the industry standard however there are alternatives that get the job done.

The handwriting panel can also be used for text entry of required on any app however, if used outside of the dedicated app, it will convert your handwriting to text on the fly.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] aalupatti:
Cant agree more on the topic of onenote...

This is one of the best products ever... Always loved how amazing this is... Nothing comes close..

Sadly android and ios implementation are terrible.. I would rather use the webversion...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] richB7:
MS Office apps. Yes you can use Polaris or whatever on the tablet. Remote desktop onto office desktops using corporate RDP. Visual Studio .Net. Engineering design tools. Of course many aren't available for Win8 yet so some of what I'm talking about were for win7 before I upgraded to 8.

I'd suggest using the Note provided the apps you want run there. If they don't and you do have some other wintel box then you can run those apps from the note using something like spashtop remote.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] redviper666:
QQ I bought the app and it doesn't let you write on the screen. The thing I wanted was for writing on the notes and later process the strokes to text. Oh well, the keyboard (Mazec) is pretty nice with the auto scroll. Worth the $1.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Craiq:
for me the text recognition is very great

I write everything with it and don't use the keyboard any more

with some settings its even more great for me (check them out in the keyboard settings)

Gesendet von meinem GT-N8000 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] HasC:
You can do the above, I do it all the time. Use the dedicated app and Keep your stylus on the Mazec Menu Icon on the bottom left and a pop up will allow you to use stroke mode, the handwriting input panel will change colour. Now when you write, the notes will be in your handwriting, to convert them to text later, longPress on any part of the handwritten text until a menu pops up and pick convert.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] redviper666:
Yeah I figured that out but I was hoping to get free form writing on the note itself. The samsung keyboard also have such a panel though I think that Mazec one might be a bit easier to use (though it has more trouble recognizing my handwriting).

Incidentally if there anyway to change where the autocomplete suggestions appear? As I am left handed its impossible to see the suggestions as I write. Iff I could move them to the bottom of the keyboard instead of the top that would be a big big benefit.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
If the W8 tablets have capacitive displays they''ll suffer the same issues all tablets before them suffered (regardless of OS). What separates the Note (s) is their inductive displays and all that goes along with that. If they do have inductive displays it all comes down to who implements the s/w better. I think you guys are expecting way too much from W8 V1. It took Android until V4 to become passable. Debating the theory of W8 tablets is fun. A lot can happen on the road from theory to practice. I for one want to understand why some of the biggest name OEM's are shunning RT. It's more than just price and competing with MS in h/w which shouldn't be difficult.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] iZan23:
Well I was talking of the Pro version which already has great pen apps like One note or zenbrush, photoshop, etc

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Craiq:
as I know the Note has capazitiv and a induktiv layer! Capazitiv is for your finger and induktiv for the pen

And the Win 8 tablets with pen would have the same

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mi7chy:
You really can't compare the two because the Surface Pro will probably be ~2x more expensive, apps probably much more expensive like they are now, it'll be hotter running, with shorter battery life, bulkier and heavier. The Surface Pro won't be much different than installing Windows 8 on my Thinkpad. I bought the Galaxy Note 10.1 instead because I like competition and want to see ARM devices grow more powerful as a desktop and laptop alternative with superior power efficiency and lower cost.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] iZan23:
Well of you read the first post, I was asking between a Note 10.1 plus an ultra book or a new windows 8 convertible with both capacitive and digitalizer layers, to be able to use a Wacom style pen, my fingers and the Keyboard, and all of this to take notes plus Engineering programs like Ansys or Catia

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
I don't think there's enough info available on W8 tablets (Pro or RT) at this point to have anything but a theoretical conversation. The HP TouchPad with webOS was a great product killed by a lack of an eco-system. What's going to be any different, especially on the consumption side, with W8? Pro's not due out until years end and RT will be the launch pproduct. I can't see it doing what you guys are hoping for at the price points being discussed. The success or failure of W8 tables will take months to determine. The biggest differentiator is MS Office support but that's not a motivator for a lot of people or iPad wouldn't be as successful as it is. With consumption being the number one use for a tablet ,being as late as it is, W8 has a tough road to hoe.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] freedomispopular:
Like Barry said, until we know price points, there's really nothing to discuss. Rumor has it RT will debut at $200, which seems too unlikely to be true, but in order to make a dent in the market, Microsoft is gonna have to do something spectacular like that. And if they can gain market share, third party developers will develop for it. I also am looking forward to the Pro tablets, but I seriously doubt they'll be as affordable as the Note. I've been reading they could be $600-800, but I really don't think there's any way they could be cheaper than an ultrabook. The relatively cheaper price point is what drove me to the Note, and unless the W8 Pro tablets are affordable and/or blow everyone away, I can't see myself getting one over the Note.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] seitys:
I debated getting the samsung series 7 slate and note 10.1 for a few months and decided to go with slate for full windows.

1. It basically came down to applications. Onenote trumps all from what I've read. MS just has much more experience with inking and that was my number 1 concern.

2.Touchwiz doesn't have a great history of providing a quality alternative to stock android. That will change over time but it will take a few months.

3. The only two apps I could use to replace note taking on android seemed to be lecture notes and samsung's own s-note app. Reviews on s-note app pointed to a slowdown when you wrote too fast (The Verge). Lecture notes seems great but the indexing functions are a bit confusing to use (I tried it on my Nexus S 4G).

4. I don't want to spend my time flashing custom ROMs and trying out new apps in hopes that one would be sufficient for note-taking.

5. The samsung series 7 slate only cost me about $700 after shipping, tax, and accessories. I wish the build quality was better though. I really hate samsung's plastic approach to all their hardware.

6. The leap in android devices is pretty great every few months. The Exynos 5250 seems to destroy current gen processors (including the 4412), whereas sandy bridge won't be as much of a jump to ivy bridge. In other words, I won't be itching to sell and buy again for a while and the device will hold better value as a % of purchase price (esp since I purchased mine refurbished). As an example to the drop in value, look at the tab 10.1. Now, it's worth no more than 300, although realistically you can find it for 250 and that's been out for a year or less.

Of course the downsides are battery life, weight and heat.

Also, I'll bet in 2 years or less, intel will start to destroy all these ARM processors with Haswell, Skylake, etc and we won't even have this argument. Their focus starting on Haswell is power efficiency. Admittedly, they got caught with their pants on the ground for not forseeing the mobile segment but that will quickly change.

Like I said before the question is: Ultrabook(~900€) + Note 10.1(500€) or transformer tablet with Win 8 with keyboard and digitalizer? (>1000 € and I have to wait until january

For me my TF101 Transformer does everything I want from a tablet - apart from having proper stylus - but is a little slow. Note 10.1 should be perfect for me. I don't use Windows on my PC anyway, so I'm not looking forward to Windows 8 - I'll probably buy it though so I can write apps/games for it but I'll run it in VirtualBox most likely.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Craiq:
but none of this programs are made for touch.

my previous laptop had 13. 3"and it was bit to small (1376 x 768 px)

and you have good chances to run in driver problems without a dedicated graphic card

the next thing is the low CPU Power for Ansys! I've a i7 3615 for this what a major difference.

Battery Life is also very great.

Yes, they are not made for touch but if you have a transformer with Win 8 yo can use the trackpad or plug a mouse, even if is only the tablet. That's why a want a Transformer with Win 8, because they are super versatile

feeling torn apart

For me the price is not a problem so I don't know what to buy. On one hand you have full Windows machine on the other you have app choice and touch optimized interface. Now that evernote is Integrated with scrapbook and s note, is one note still such a big advantage for surface 2 pro? I am already an evernote user. How about sketchbook pro? Have to cough out extra 50 bucks and not have pinch to zoom? How about Photoshop is it possible to run 300px/inch A3 format and use brushes on sf. Pro? How does it feel to use 1 kg tablet to take notes on meetings? I so desperately would like Windows to win this game so I could buy it and have both the best of Windows and the best touchscreen experience. I really need help to decide on this... Help
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] karaern:
But it won't win any game. ?.spoon even there won't be any game.

Neither Intel nope ms can get the things, where they had run to.

These so called simple tools, apple and Android had just overwhelmed that PRO machines. ?.

I tried the Surface and found that is us better than or equal to Note for note-taking, but far inferior for pdf annotation.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] boristhebad:
What program are you using for PDF annotation on the Note? I had PDF Annotator on my Windows Tablet, and loved it. Vector based, easy erasing, native PDFs etc. Everything I've tried on the Galaxy Note is a huge compromise. LectureNotes is the best I've tried, but doesn't read them in/save them natively (and I need to annotate lots, so the time loading/exporting them in is not trivial). And it converts text to bitmaps and does everything bitmapped. Other programs have nicer native reading/saving, but then the Spen support seems terrible (no erasing with the eraser end, no button support, no separating finger/Spen, etc.). I wish I could find something on my Note that did what the Windows programs could do.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] karaern:
Majority of ppl Use many different apps that really do the job done. So you can try some. Although you can like to be stuck to Win apps. Sure you can but this doesn't mean that there is' no another Apps and world out there. we talk about mobility when we have tablets . :rolleyes:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] boristhebad:
I have tried a number: ezPDF, Repligo, Adobe, LectureNotes, but none come close to doing what I could with PDF annotator in Windows. I want to have a good program for Android, but haven't found a good one. I was hoping dtziheucdavis could say what he was using that was better than Windows programs, as I've not been impressed with the Android offerings. I'm not a Windows-freak. I want to use my Note well, just seems like no one has a good PDF annotating app for the Note yet.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] dtziheucdavis:
I used pdf annotator. Paid big bucks for it too if I remember correctly. I still much prefer annotating pdfs using the Note with ezpdf. It's literally most of what I use the tablet for and the reason I got Note and not iPad.

For me, I really just need a pen and bookmark handling. Ezpdf does all that quickly and smoothly. With Windows, the programs just have way too many features I don't need and I find the programs too distracting. In my case, my use is low end end and simplistic that I really do not need all the extra features of windows, great as they are. I only need Dropbox and ezpdf. Gets the job done.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] karaern:
Absolutely agree. Ezpdf is really useful one, just need to get familiar with the options etc

Hey guys, I'm back this time with some Jellybean MIUI Love

First week that Xiaomi has put out Jellybean roms, I think i took care most/all issues. Google Now is added because, well, I think I'd hear about if it didn't :P

So I would like to proudly introduce...

MIUIAndroid 2.9.21

DOWNLOAD HERE

The issues everyone had yesterday are now fixed, just re-download and re-flash! (As of 1:45 PM 8/18/2012 CST)

If you notice any issues, please let me know here, or feel free to tweet me @thebignoob

Using the AOSP kernel source here: https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/omap/+/android-omap-3.0

P.S. Any current MIUI users have any comments about battery life? How does it compare to AOSP ROMs?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arikaru0:
On official MIUI v4, with GLaDOS kernel, I got over a day with moderate use

JB may be crappier, due to the fact that it is JB

Sorry about everyone having issues in the past 24 hours, fresh image has been uploaded and tested, this time with better luck.

Super embarrassed that I put up a bad image, live and learn, right?

I'd recommend a custom kernel after you get it to boot as it is using Xiaomi's kernel for the GSM Nexus. Franco and Lean are my goto.
