Is there any software that allows us to take notes by typing and drawing pictures on the same file? Like onenote does. (i know there are some where you can do it separately , but that is a huge annoyance in class)
Not sure if this is what you're looking for

Take a look at BlackInk. Not quite what you are probably thinking of. I have been using it for work and got rid of my paper notes altogether.
There sure does need to be an official OneNote app for Android...

The problem with this app is that you still need to type and draw seperatlly. There has to be SOME app that you can use to draw and type on the same file!
Try Handrite, http://www.appbrain.com/app/handrite-free-handwriting-note/my.handrite it allows you to write by hand or type from the on screen keyboard, you can also draw anything you like and it just scales it down and adds it to the line of text as if it was a type symbol.
If i did this for graphs, i would never understand what it is saying. Like in my economics classes we use supply and demand graphs, and i need them to be big enough to draw in detail
you can use tabnotes, this app allows you to handwrite and draw, at present, I don't think you can type which is the only drawback.

As you know, those of us with Galaxy Notes complain about the "lagginess" of the device and the inaccuracy of the S pen. There is an app called TouchScreenTune on the Play Store for Galaxy Note that lets you adjust the S Pen accuracy and the Screens responsiveness.
The free version lets you see that the app actually does work and the licenced version lets you save the settings. The licence is 5 bucks. And, of course, your phone has to be rooted. But I would highly recommend TouchScreenTune.
nice finding! looks good... i hope the author of this app makes money, but on the other hand I hope we get the fix for free on ICS...
Thanks for the info. The offcenter calibration of the s-pen have made me not use it at all!
i cant find it in the market

Overpriced and completely unnecessary
And the full version is an out-of-market purchase?
No dice.
That said, I'd hardly classify $5 as "overpriced" if it works as advertised.
Wasnt this a free app originally made for the Galaxy S II? What happened there?
I remember just grabbing the apk over at the S II forums before

yeah it was intended for the GS2. Perhaps this is a placebo effect people are getting on their note? lol
installed trial, tested, changed offsets, tested
WOW, NO DIFFERENCE.
uninstalled.
I actually did purchase the licence myself and I do notice a difference. Is it perfect? Not really. But it does make an improvement...at least to my eyes anyway. I have a pinball game app and since I increased the touch screen sensitivity, the flippers respond more quickly. Not as quickly as I would like, but an improvement none the less. As for the s pen settings, it works as advertised. But I wonder why Sammy didn't include something like this in the settings menu in the first place. Maybe with the ICS update? I hope so.

In the trial version the settings are lost when the phone locks.
Spen calibration is really only an issue for left handed ppl who curl their hand when writing... other ppl probably wont experience it. Its very noticeable when i write. Lecture notes app has a calibration setting for writing I just use that.

I have to agree! The reason for the slight offset of the S-Pen is due to the natural way you hold a pen when writing on the screen. Therefore Samsung set it like this purposely. After a short time you get used to how this works and it becomes natural.
I did find another app though when looking at this.. called Jotter (for Galaxy Note only) it has a 100% palm rejection when writing on the screen, so it feels more natural to rest your hand as you write. I tried it for the 15 minutes and it worked well, but I don't write notes enough to justify spending £3 for it.
in order for this to work properly there needs to be some code that is put into the kernel. We on the i717 have a debug kernel that DA_g created that has KALLSYMS + KALLSYMS_ALL in it. Im not sure if this alone is all that is needed but it does make my SPEN more precise as apposed to not having this at all. But in order for this to work I had to use da_g debug kernel.. any other kernel it didnt change anything....
Am I the only person slightly dissappointed with the software side of the Galaxy Note? I enjoy a bit of cooking once in a while, so was going to write up some recipes in S Note. But, so far, it has been a nightmare! It certainly is not as easy as commercials would have you believe...

For example, I wanted to write ingredients into a table but shape match failed to even recognise an almost perfect square.

Probably!
I find it really easy to use and have pretty much stopped taking anything but my Note to meetings at work, shopping when I need a list, annotating images and sending them via email, etc.
I've even used the MHL out to connect to a projector and do software and process diagrams on it!

If you aren't getting on with S-Note try another app instead of moaning about it. FreeNote is free and pretty feature rich.
I don't know I use S Note quite a lot as my journal. Doesn't really use it for work.'coz I use s memo for that. But yeah I do think it's quite usefull

Well, I have found an option in "Settings" which means that my finger doesn't let me draw - makes it easier now that I can now rest my hand on the device's screen whilst writing.

I use S Note for storing recipes, as I like to do a bit of cooking and I can easily capture text and images from recipe sites into S Note - ready to test the recipes whenever I feel like it. I also use it for any other general notes that I need to take, but I utilise S Memo for taking memos. This means any tasks or reminders, which I link into S Planner, or a shopping list for example.

That setting just makes it so that you can only write with the pen. You can rest your hand on the screen with or without the setting. Palm rejection is built into the OS.

Yes, S Note is very immature peace of software. Especially its hand writing recognition is a joke. Useless. The only usable is MyScript Note, ported from Lenovo. I think this company delivered its engine for S Note's math formula, thats the only feature usable.
For me its a must have device now, won't leave home without it, I do have a few other phones but somehow I m beginning to feel there are rather obsolette even my S2 or One X. Who needs a Tab

Is the S Note app available on stock Gingerbread firmware or is it a new feature of stock Ice Cream Sandwich firmware?
I apologise for my rather stupid query. I cannot seem to recollect as I am presently on a custom Gingerbread firmware.

The hardware is good, even the S-Pen. But, S-Note itself and S-Memo as well both feel rather limited. What do people here even use it for?
Ok, so I don't buy a cell phone for the calculator function...but really, is this it for the built in calculator?
No memory, no reciprocal, no nothing really. I know I can download a million different ones, but I'm not missing anything am I? One of the most advanced phones in the world is beat by a 99cent calculator?
Only thing else I could tell you is that there's an advanced tab if you swipe from right to left with sine, cosine, natural log, etc. But yeah that's pretty much it for the stock calculator. I don't ever use it because I have a TI-89 on mine and that's what I use all the time. It's actually better than my actual TI-89 because I can over clock the emulator CPU so it'll run around 3 times faster than my actual 89.

I love my TI-89t. Had never looked for an emulator for android before, but that's awesome.
In response to the original question: I would say that the best value of Android is the fact that it was designed to be modular. Back before the G1 came out, I can remember watching a video by the engineers which touted the ability to replace any app on the system. This was imho the revolutionary idea that put Android on the map. I think this is a good example of this philosophy in action. If you don't like the default, you are free to, and they have made it easy to, change it.

Hey guys,
Do any of you know or use any photo editors that allow you to add effects via fine tuning using fingers so that essentially I can use my pen to do it even better!
In case I'm not clear, what I mean is the ability to add filters and effects by touching parts of the photo rather than having it applied automatically to the whole image.
Now that I think about it, I could have sworn there was a samsung for app that... but I can't find it? I remember seeing something on the store demos.
Adobe Photoshop Touch could be?
And wrong section

And yes sorry this is probably suitable as a question rather than a discussion.

Try "Picart", was designed for S pen"
Nice I didn't know picsart had s-pen, I tried it ages back and hated the fact it couldn't do high res images or most of the filters without internet.
The apps looks quite different now, I'll check it out.

I have, it was my previous favourite on the old phone, it's a great editor but there is no brush or pen support, in the sense of using the pen to apply the effects on parts of the image.

Ah, you literally want to paint them on?
Then Photoshop is probably your best bet. Apply the effect to a duplicate of the layer, turn on layer mask and brush away the parts of the effect that you don't want.

Ah yes sure, it's this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.picsart.studio
It's improved a lot and not so bad once you take the ads off. I think one of the reason I ditched it was it required an internet connection as a lot of the filters are processed server side.. which is nice until your on the move and loose internet...
Otherwise it has pretty much everything there, all the filters you could want and s-pen support (brush) so you can paint on the effects on the picture.
I looked at Adobe photoshop, it does look good, a bit steep and probably not your 5-min quick effect type but very advanced.

If you go in to recent apps, you can grab a multi view capable app by its header and drag it on to the screen. It turns the app in to a pop up window. So if you're using the browser in full or split view doing this turns it in to a pop up preserving all your info.
You can also do that by dragging down your current active window from the left or right top corner, drag it down to the center of the screen. Need so practice before u get it done, but when u do it correctly u will feel so easy haptic feedback.
If u got root and have an app like MW Commander which u use to make every app multi window, it will also enable this pop up view for all apps.

Hey there. Are you getting a Note 5? It's really an amazing phone and you and I both go through enough phones to know the difference. Samsung's pulled a bunch of features and settings out and I miss some. But the benefit of thinner and lighter s/w paired with uber fast memory and storage is a smoothness and tightness you'd expect from an iPhone. It's pretty too.

And it is really useful too. I use it a lot e.g. when I need to quickly refer to a note I made while browsing and I do not wish to even minimize the browser , there are a lot of such instances.

You can still do it now but it takes extra steps.
Looks like Samsung is going backwards. Or did I buy the S6 by mistake?
