[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] nirurin:
I got this just now. Had an hour of playing around (and looking up windows help guides to figure some stuff out)....

Oh..Em..Gee.

This is an insane program. It is like a full windows animation program, on a tablet.

And strangely, it wouldnt work on any normal tablet, only ones that use a pen. Fingers would be way too thick to hit these menu buttons, and the contextual help only comes up on "mouse-overs".

Colour me impressed, this tool will be something awesome when it is released. There needs to be more like this! Programs that the iPad could *never* have (unless they release a non-capacitive screened iPad, which I doubt they would).

Sketchbook pro has most, if not all, of these features. Not sure on the blend and smudge for the android version, I know that the iPad version did. Check it out in the Play store, it should list the features.

It is a very good program, and I have been told by an Autodesk employee that a new update that will add all sorts of nice new features, and will be coming out "soon". Though how soon "soon" is, is anyones guess.

Dont take my word for it though (I'd hate for you to spend money and then blame me if I was wrong!!!) so check out the Play listing for sketchbook pro. Make sure you end up buying the "Sketchbook Pro for Tablets" one though, if you do buy it.

Edit: There are blend modes using layers.... but no smudge tool in sketchbook. Not on android anyway, it has been on the iPad version for a long time though. I would *think* that it would get added in the upcoming update. Sorry I couldnt be more help, I haven't yet explored the colouring side things on android...

However, I hear good things about a program called "Infinite Painter", made by the same guy who does the Infinite Design app. The pictures I have seen done using it were very impressive, so I expect that might have smudge/blend tools. I would check that one out if I were you. It has a Note-specific version of the app, which is nice!

This is a link to the Free version. Probably has adverts or limited saves or something. The paid version isnt expensive though.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] XenomorphXx121:
I use sketchbook pro, best app for drawing I've used and easy translation from photoshop illustrator but slightly easier for stuff like adding layers.

Lacks the one thing it needs which is palm rejection which would make it a worthwhile purchase.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] nirurin:
It's the app I used on iPad, but trust me when I say the iPad version has a lot more tools in it. Don't know why they've been so slow with the android one.

An update on my infinite design findings... It's good. But it's missing some necessary tools, such as Path joining and being able to select-all. Also it seems you can't have your line be a different color to your fill...

Vector graphics users will hopefully understand what I mean lol. I miss my iDraw program on the iOS. It had everything. Maybe someday soon a program will catch up to it!

Although I still need to try that new TouchDraw program that's on Samsung apps... It looks promising, in theory.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] asdfuogh:
Because people think of Apple users as "artists" and Android users as geeks.

Anyway, tvpaint looks ridiculously complex!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Magnesus:
I once was quite good at using TV Paint (when it was called Mirage) but I forgot almost all of it. It's a very specific program. :) Right now I would kill for MyPaint on Note 10.1. I'm considering porting it - but it uses Python which is not available on Android AFAIK.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] nirurin:
Its probably generally quite true, but as an artist AND a geek, I am happy with my wacom-powered device. So they need to start making apps for it!

Saying that, I had an email from the developer of the vector app I use, and he has finished his other project for now and is back to work on his next update for this app. So things are moving forward!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] nirurin:
I was just about to bite the bullet, and spend the £5.50 for the TouchDraw app from the samsung store when I noticed.... It is only compatible with Jellybean 4.1+.

Which hasnt been released for my device yet, officially.

Lame.

Might be time to root.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Jonphinguyen7:
Flash CM10 and never look back. (Until Jellybean suite comes at least)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] kenhicg:
If i root and flash cm 10 how do i get all the samsung apps back on my tab?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] nirurin:
Thats the problem (as far as I could tell) with flashing CM10. You lose all the samsung stuff.

Yeh sure, a fair few of the apps are pretty useless... but you would also lose DualView and the multiple windows thing (multiview?), and the pen folder (though I'd like to be able to add my own apps to that folder)... I'm sure theres a couple other nice things the Note has that gets lost too.

Maybe once the novelty wears off I'll move onto CM, but for now I like my DualView. And I hear it only gets better in jellybean.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] kenhicg:
It's only a matter of time before we get jb. I can wait a littile while. I have until the end of Jan. Im sure we'll get in a couple weeks. I have cm 10 on my thrive so im not missing anything. I actually kinda like touchwiz. Didn't think I'd say that but it's not bad. Besides if i put cm10 on it it's pretty much like all the rest of the Android tabs out there. If i wanted that I'd have bought a nexus 10.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] nirurin:
I ended up buying the TouchDraw app from the samsung app store, and have been using it to play around with a drawing. Its still in very early stages, but I though I would give a first-day review.

Its pretty good.

That is all.

....ok I'll go into a little more detail. Anyone who has used iDraw or a similar "full illustrator" style app on iOS will probably like it, it has a nice user interface that is *fairly* intuitive, though there have been a few occasions where I've been stumped on how to do something. Fortunately, unlike Infinite Design, there is a full (and fairly decent) online help manual for all the tools and options, which has been very handy so far.

In fact (so far) there has only been two things missing from the app (and I have emailed the developers about both of them, so maybe I'll find out they are in there somewhere). These are :

- An eyedropper tool. If you have coloured in a face, and now want to use the same colour somewhere else, you cant use the old "eyedropper" to select that colour from the page. There is also no "colour pallette" to store your favourite custom colours.

There IS a full colour wheel, so you have the full choice of colours, just no way to save them. Sad face.

HOWEVER, in TouchDraws favour, instead of the colour wheel you can chose "RGB" mode, where you can select the RedBlueGreen values for the colour you want. So if you write down a list of your fave colours RGB values, you can recreate them exactly.

Not as easy as an eyedropper or a palette - BUT it is a usable workaround for the time being.

- The other thing missing, is rather minor I suppose, but its something I used a fair bit. You can't change the opacity of a layer. Its not much a big deal, and I worked around it by changing the image opacity in a different program before importing it into TouchDraw (actually used Photoshop Touch for it, so theres a use for photoshop touch anyway!!), so again, its a problem that can be worked around fairly simply.

Other than these pretty minor missing tools, and a bit of a learning curve on how the paths tools work, this program has pretty much everything you would want. At the moment, it is probably better than infinite design, on a day to day basis. Though Infinite Design has a lot more of the clever creative tricks up its sleeves, it needs a couple more updates to work out the kinks and add the features it needs to play with the big boys.

I will be keeping an eye on both these programs, and in the long run I think I'll be glad to have paid for them both.

Even if not, the most I've lost is £5.50 (TouchDraw price) or £3.19 (Infinite Design) so its not bad either way.

Any there we go, I hope this has been helpful. Long story short, if you like vector design tools, TouchDraw is actually very good. Probably the best tool available at the moment. Only available on the samsung app store in the UK though (no idea why).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] nirurin:
Update on TouchDraw (in case anyone was interested).

I recieved an email from the developers.

- A colour Palette is being developed, and hopefully will be in an upcoming version 1.4

- Eye Dropper tool is on their to-do list, but probably not until after christmas at least.

- Layer Opacity is easy for them to implement, they just had not had it requested by anyone so far, so may be crowbarred into an upcoming release.

Another nice development team it seems.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] robnil:
I am not sure why people are so keen on the palm rejection. For it to work in SBP you need to put down the pen before the palm. That is just very frustrating. But look, if you have ever done any work with real colors and pencils you know you just cant put down your palm on the drawing there either!

This is what I do on the tablet, and on paper. I fold a piece of paper as a shield and place my palm on it. It will protect the colors on the paper and shield of the touches on the tablet.

:)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] XenomorphXx121:
Actually I do put my palm down sometimes for things like small details you have to and trying to paint while your hand is always upright become awkward, perhaps you don't draw and paint the same way anothers do, on my Wacom tablet I was used to just resting my palm as it became convenient and easy and really shouldn't have to put bits of paper down as the software for this tablet should already have it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] jedah:
Or if you're wearing long sleeves, just stretch your sleeve to cover your palm while you draw. At least it's not like traditional media where you'll get pencil or paint smudged onto your clothes.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] asdfuogh:
Or wear gloves? I mean, LectureNotes has a really nice palm rejection for the spen so I wish they could do the same thing for sketchbook pro.. sigh..
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mingwa:
Second that.

Yes, I do not touch my palm when doing traditional works but it's when I'm working with a stand and not yet go into detailing. We shouldn't have been bothered by palm rejection issue when going digitally. My wacom-penabled tabletpc gives me pleasure experiences as I can rest my palm anywhere, ergonomically working without leaving any stray marks and that's what I love about painting digitally. I don't have the same experience in SBP on my Note and ThinkPad Tablet, it's also frustrating as it's usually mistaken for pinching gesture.

Back to the topic, here is what I've been using (in order of preferences)

1. Sketchbook Pro: despite it's restriction, this is still my most favorite. Tools and colors are easily accessed and saved through palette or radical menu, nice brush sets. Attached below is the making of my recent work using SBP. Still I'm really jealous with iPad's users, not only do they have lots of powerful art apps but SBP is also at v2.7.1. What did Autodesk treat us Android users? 2.1 for ages and a minor 2.2 update!

2. TVPaint Pro: a robust app! it's practically a full x86 program, enough said! highly productive as you can use an external keyboard for shortcut keys but it requires a learning curve and still takes time for me get to used to it

PS Touch: has almost features I'm looking for (lasso tool, free transformation, cropping tool). Due to its limited brush types, it should be much better if size and opacity slider can be brought outside (yes, I'm greedy for productivity)

3. Infinite Painter: really nice brush sets which quite nicely imitate traditional mediums, UI is so-so but performance is a draw-back

4. Layer Paint: not using it much though I think it's good for inking. The deal-breaker for me is that it's so inconvenient to access eye-dropper tool and color palette

***. Honorable place goes to LectureNotes :D the current version does make doodling real fun! Pen with colors are easily accessed, there are even lasso tool and transformation on-the-go!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] D.T. Nethery:
I'm a professional animator. I have installed the Open Beta of TVPaint Animation for Android on the Galaxy Note. LOVE IT. :good: The drawing tools are as responsive and detailed as on the full version of TVPaint that I use every day with my Cintiq 21UX . I have had to make some changes to my workflow to adjust to the smaller screen real estate of the Galaxy Note , but I am surprised with how good TVPaint feels on the Note. The main thing to remember is that this is the full version of TVPaint ported over to run on Android , so no additional UI development has been done on it yet to make it "tablet friendly" (in the clean, stripped down way you have with something like Sketchbook Pro Mobile or Photoshop Touch) but despite that I find that in terms of the drawing and painting tools it completely blows away Sketchbook and Photoshop Touch. (plus you can ANIMATE with it , not just do still images, with full 24 fps motion , camera moves, particle effects ) .

This is still an Open Beta for TVPaint on Android, but my experience with it so far is that TVPaint and the Galaxy Note 10.1 are the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Oh, the other thing I should mention is that the use of a bluetooth keyboard with trackpad and/or a bluetooth keyboard with bluetooth mouse are essential to make TVPaint on the Galaxy Note fully functional. Like I said, the UI has not been re-designed from the ground up for tablets , so it assumes you have a keyboard and a mouse for certain functions. (shift , right click , left click, alt, ctrl) . I'm using it with small bluetooth keyboard and trackpad. Very happy with the results so far.

My next purchase is going to be the Wacom Penabled tablet PC stylus with eraser tip .

.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Beards:
Yes, I've been using my old Fujitsu Siemens T4220 TabletPC Wacom Pen with the Note 10.1 and it is brilliant.

Besides being easier to hold than the S-Pen the button press on the pen works in two ways ~ press down for screenshot and other similes to what the S-Pen button does, press up and it's an eraser or simply turn the pen over and the top of the pen is now a very good eraser.

That and I have a collection of different nip types, one being black which gives a better resistance on the screen with a more natural paper feel to it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Reiman76:
Been using mostly SketchBook Pro and Layer Paint. I love the UI of SketchBook but it still seriously needs an update that enables palm detection, portrait mode, and the ability to change canvas size. I hope it gets these features soon.

I just ordered two screen protectors for my Nexus 7 and thought I should share this deal with you all.

I found it here: http://goo.gl/9Yx6U

www.xtremeguard.com is still having a Black Friday sale with promo code "70off1", and use "80OFF3" if you need three for the discounted price of two...

I don't know anything about this brand but a screen protector for $1.50 and FREE shipping is a good deal. The code appears to work for everything in the store
[LG Nitro HD] Technocian:
I have used XtremeGaurds back since when I was rocking the T-Mobile G2 a few years ago. They are VERY comparable to Zagg Invisishields and are made of the same kind of "self healing" rubbery material. Do not clean these with alcohol and you'll be fine, use some soapy water if you are crazy about sanitation like me. Alcohol will react with coating and create a cloudy streak if you press down against the screen with an alcohol wipe and get it to react.

I've always used 80off3 code, they've had that code for at least a year now. Get these instead of Zaggs, they are just as good.
[LG Nitro HD] theandroidboss:
Do they have some screen protectors for the nitro hd. Are they really nesicary because this phone has gorrilla glass.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Firehawkns:
Guys, wondering if someone could give me some direction to restoring my TF101 to working conditions.

I have a rooted TF101 that was running 9.1.2.27.

This setup has been running great since .27 (not done OTA, Found here) came out, so I haven't bothered upgrading recently.

Fast forward to this week and it seems the Tablet started locking up at some point in the last couple days I hadn't used it. This would cause a battery drain until the device turned off. Upon rebooting I could get into the OS for maybe a minute before it would freeze again.

I decided to wipe the device, I went into CWM Recovery and wiped all caches and then tried to wipe all data/factory reset. It is at this time I get the following error:

Error removing /data/data/com.android.browser/databases/webview.db-wal!Error formatting /data!

Try starting back up and get a boot loop.

Upon reflashing the ROM, I find the TF101 in constant boot loop not making it 8 seconds into the bootup before rebooting.

I can still get into recovery so I try various kernels and roms with no success. Through searching I find CWM 6.0.1.4 and load it. Everything loads normally and I can now wipe data/factory reset, wipe all Cache even format all parts. I try to flash every ROM I can get my hands on from stock to older roms that I have ran succesfully to EOS Nighties, Every rom goes into Boot Loop after about 10 seconds.

Any Idea on where to go from here? I have been reading threads for hours now with no solution.

MODS: Putting in DEV since this is a Rooted TF, but if this should go to Q&A please move
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomTcom:
This question should be in the QA section...

But your stock ROM was ICS and the newest EOS nightlies are based on JB which have different partitions. If you flash back and forth with ICS and JB you could be running into problems there.

Have you tried the option in CWM called "Fix Permissions"? This is supposed to reset the permissions correctly for the system apps area I believe which helped a lot of people with force close issues. It's worth a shot.

Are you installing ROM's from external SD card or the Internal SD card? That shouldn't matter but I have always stuck with the External SD card.

One thing you could also try is to wipe the big 3 several times a piece before installing the ROM. I found it had made some ROM's load better when I encountered a few issues. Also, stick with one ROM either ICS or JB. Going back and forth will cause problems.

Also, I remember that from ICS to JB, some ROM's required the ROM to be installed twice literally after it installs install it again or some ROM's may reboot themselves back into recovery to complete the install.

Try that with the ROM you pick to get things back on track.

There is also some "Super Wipe" scripts floating around but I believe they were for a specific ROM and I think it was ICS based. You should be able to search XDA for that here in the Dev section.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Firehawkns:
The ICS to JB isn't the issue as the issue started happening randomly with a ICS Rom that has been working for 4+ months when it has never had anything put ICS (well HC when I got it last year). Trying the JB rom was a near last ditch effort

I tried Revolutions superwipe several times, didn't help.

I probably completely screwed it up now in frustration. Tried to load the stock rom and now Recovery is screwed and it is boot loop so I don't think I can connect it to the computer now.

Hosed you think?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Firehawkns:
So now the question is, with a Tab that won't stay on longer then 8 seconds and no longer has a recovery, is there any other hope? I'm guessing bricked.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Firehawkns:
Yea, I can do the power + vol down and then up and get the recovery android guy, then he goes on his back and a red exclamation comes up (which I believe means no recovery mode installed

I can also do the pwr + vol down and then wait 5 seconds and get the wipe device or android options, but it won't let me choose anything, 10 seconds later it reboots.

Will try tonight, but I believe all of those involve the computer having time to recognize the device, which it doesn't stay on long enough for the computer to recognize is and it won't seem to connect USB when the android guy is up.

Thanks for the info, truly! I had searched for Drivers, but not naked.

That worked and it allowed me to use Easyflasher to get CWM back on.

Now I am back where I started, I have tried loading several Roms. Everyone hangs up about 15 seconds into first boot while the setup splash screen is on (for example the dotted circle on stock Asus rom or the simon says color circle like the JB rom or what ever it was in the ICS rom I was using. Something in the tab is stopping it from booting on up.

But I can now format everything and wipe data. I can connect APX mode. Anything else I can try from there. Starting to seem like something Hardware is busted. :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grgmre:
Did you fix permissions while you were in recovery? It's a long shot but that may help. You may have a folder that's chmod'ed incorrectly. If so that'll prevent the system from being able to write or read to that folder making it impossible to install to, or run from it. Fix permissions, re-flash and reboot.

I know TomTcom mentioned it already. I don't see if you tried it in your replies though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Firehawkns:
Yea, I tried that first. Sorry forgot to mention.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cabraswell:
Are you able to flash the stock firmware using Easyflasher?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Firehawkns:
yes, I am able to flash to stock rom I got from Asus and the one I took for Rooted with stock on the forum. The flash, and it gives you the initial progress bar on first boot, then reboots at the end of the progress bar and goes to the Asus with the moving circles for about 5 seconds then keeps rebooting from there.

In a PC world I would wonder Ram issues, Over heating, or insuffecent power supply at this point. Not sure what to think here.

Is there a way to use TWOP and delete everything you see on the system and then reflash?
