anyone know any free SS apps that work with honeycomb?

Here's mine. I've moved to using ADW Launcher EX in order to be able to use scrollable and sizable widgets.

If you search the forums - I think there is a free version of Screenshot ER floating around.

On one of these wallpapers, the user had his handle above the clock. How is that done? I have also seen a few custom sets of icons, but I didn't think there were any themes available for this tablet yet?

Absolutely agree! It's crazy keeping that boring screen of icons format. Let people have the freedom to customise however they like.

Here's my current home screen, 6th or so already

Default Browser quick controls (LABS)

Hey everyone.
Did you all know that the Note 10.1 default Browser has a fullscreen mode with quick controls that are gesture based? (I wish the controls were bigger, though)
If you go to Browser settings and then to Labs section, there is a Quick Controls option you can enable. Is this new in Jelly Bean based roms?
Basically your Browser goes fullscreen with no bars and you can swipe from the left or right edge to bring up a semi-circular set of touch controls to do whatever you want.
Or, maybe, you all knew this and I am a noob.

Sorry to say it but " YOU ARE A NOOB" also its not the only or first browser with this feature. ?

Still thanks for sharing. I'm sure there are enough people who are not aware of this feature and they might be helped by your post.

It had this is 4.0 but the controls wee bigger and ALOT easier to use

I didn't know about this until I was told a few weeks ago, it's very good for quick and full screen browsing, but like the OP said; it would be better if the buttons could be increased in size.

Full screen Gallery

Why every time I try and view a picture in my gallery, the menu bar or whatever you want to call it never disappears. Even after taping the picture

when I pull up a photo with the stock gallery app it shows the menu bar you are referring to, then a second tap makes it go away, & a third tap brings it back

Yep. One tap SHOULD make it go away.

Unfortunately this seems to be a widespread problem. From what I've seen it has to do with the "accessibility"settings. I had the same problem when I installed NoLED and gave it permission under accessibility. After I turned off the accessibility feature everything went back to normal. Hope that helps.

If the status bar is gone you can swipe down from the top of the phone/earpiece and the statusbar will come back, and if you swipe up on it it will go back again. Only on a TouchWiz ROM, but it works in all apps.

I don't think it is the app so much as it is having given it permission under accessibility but I could be wrong.

Is this your first Android tablet? To resize your ezpdf widget press and hold down for a couple seconds, then choose Resize.

Noob questions thread
I think this should be re-named NOOB Questions Thread, but being new to Samsung and stylus input (I've only used the wife's Nexus a bit before, and my office is still on blackberry) the simple Qs, and patience of users to answer them, have been helpful. I was definitely getting frustrated with my magazines, because that upward swish should have been opening Google search. I'll be killing magazines and see how that goes. To me, magazines belong int he google play store.
I would sure appreciate a google experience version of the 10.1. Samsung offering their pen add-ons as apps rather than a modified OS would be an improvement. But I'm quite happy so far, and the help on this and similar threads is most appreciated.

It is my first Android tablet...thanks for the responses, but none was my answer...
If you use ezPDF and make a sticky note on the PDF, the size of the icon of the sticky note is so small!! I wanted to see if we could make that bigger, but I don't think there's is a way...

Thanks on the freeze/stop advice, but it looks like root is required to remove entirely. I keep triggering the silly MyMag screen when I really want google search which is what I expect an upward swipe from home will give me.

^ you can also move your google search widget somewhere in the middle...but really, it's annoying when I hit the home button it switches to my magazine

Show off that G3 built-in editing!

With all the photo editing apps out there, I realized the G3 built-in editing feature (which I believe is provided by Google+) is actually pretty good. Here are some of my favorite pics taken with my G3 and edited with the built-in feature (feel free to share yours as well) . I personally like the combo of "HDR Scape" and "Drama" filter along with "Vintage" sometimes and one of the "looks" modes.

How do you access that in-built photo editor? Which app is it?
I dont see any editing option with filters in the default gallery app.

I can't find it either .

Did you guys freeze google+. That's what has the edit function.

Right next to the camera icon up top.

Yes, Google+ was disabled.
Re enabling it brought back the editing options.
Thanks !

Can you guys see the photos I posted? I just realized they might not be showing up.

You guys should check out Snapseed. It's free and awesome (although the mention of hdr and drama makes me think that is what is being used)
Here is a touched up pond:

Is that ecig from a co-op buy or a main stream ecig? Kind of looks like my itaste mvp but it also looks like a dna mod.
