App compatibility out the box - Galaxy Note 10.1 General

I have had my note 10.1 since xmas and have left it alone as far as rooting and roms go unlike my Note and Note 2, I have found a good few apps including games which will not work sometimes ones that the market says are compatible with the Note 10.1.
I find it strange that some apps will work on the smaller notes but not the 10.1 is due to it being a tablet design?
Any one else had any issues or has any who has upgraded to JB found that apps that didnt work now do?
I would love to now your thoughs.

I havent found anything incompatible. What are you having issues with?

Touch Detective was the last one i couldnt run?

All my apps work including many from SGS3.
jje

delete - Sorry misread. I'm not on jelly bean

Could someone try out Touch Detective it is free and on play store so i can see wether my issue is device specific?

I can't get Heroes of Order and Chaos for example and a couple more that I don't remember.
I tried to edit the device name in the build.prop but no success...
Edit: Play Store says that my phone (Nexus One) and tablet (8013) are compatible

I also could not get Heroes of order or Chaos to work but it works on my Note 2? Is it the processor?
Does any one know if other devices usse the same type of processor?

I think the GS3 international, Note 2 and Note 10.1 have the same GPU Mali 400.

My Nook reader did not work on 4.1.1 but does on 4.1.2, go figure.

Hopefuly when i upgrade to JB tonight it will solve some of my issues with apps.
As bigger screens and tablets become more common hopful JB being the latest os is more big screen friendly.
And yes i have looked into it and the note, note 2 and 10.1 all have Samsungs Exynos processor????

Cant download games or apps that i bought from Previous Andriod Devices

I bought games like NFS, Sim City Deluxe and others but cant seem to put on the Tab 7.7 and I know its compatible pls help. Does it have something to do with the region. I got the HK Version
Could be compatibility. NFS cannot run on 7.7. Downloaded from Samsung Apps and only see white blocks when running.
Both NFS and Sim City Deluxe are reported to me as incompatible with both my Galaxy Tab 7.7 and Galaxy S II when I look in Market on the web.

Hmm.. you are right. Forgotten about Chainfire3d. Probably try that later.

[Q] This app is incompatible with your Galaxy S4

I am a bit unhappy and confused on why most of the gameloft games show incompatible in Play Store. May be its because these are not designed for the S4 screen.
Another Question , The game NFS Most Wanted works very fast and flawless in NOTE 2 but is very slow in my S4
RAM management is poor in S4 :crying:
Any suggestions pls....
Answer: Wait for the developers of those games to support it.
C'mon now... the S4 is just weeks old so you can't expect every app/game will be able to run on it properly.
Those games aren't even optimized yet for newer phones so just wait.

"S Note" application /samsung disappointment. BEWARE

I used S note a lot on galaxy Note.
Then bought Note 2 - used S-note even more.
Then I bought Note 10.1 - and got dissapointed, the S-note app for 10.1 were older and missed some fetures.
Now I bought Note 3 - a much newer "S note" app, that converts the notes to a new format. - that note 10.1 never got an update for...
So. using Samsung proprietary app, which they (dirty bastards) do not update using Google Play, is a big fail. It makes me stuck with old version of the app, something that would not happen to any normal Android app on google Play.
Morale of this story is: do not trust apps that are not updated via google play for all devices.
Solution ?
I've tried to copy the note3.apk from note3 to my note 10.1 , but for some reason, it fails to install every time.. and I do not know why ?

I was hoping that the update that just came out would of had the new S-Note app in it.
I hope someone can convert it over for Note 10.1 2013 use..

DAMN
just bought the 10.1 yesterday BECAUSE of the s-note?!??!?!!
damnit!!!
have you tried copying over the note2.apk?
I think it's flat out ridiculous that we have to be stuck with old versions of software because the companies are too greedy and only focuses on new products and selling new hardware/software. I mean we've been on 4.1.2 since release and 4.3 is rolling out to other devices. Couldn't we at least be on 4.2.2? Come on Saumsung. I love your devices but this is craziness.

Check out Lecture Notes, works well & offers may more features than all versions of stock software. Since when do the hardware mfg's have to offer all software? They don't provide updates via Android Store because they can offer updates via firmware, so why should they have to pay Google for a service they already provide? My advise open your wallet instead of your mouth.

Well, Samsung does not need to pay google for free updates via Play, - and could resctrict it to their devices.
On the other hand, they could provice updates using Samsung apps market, which they do not....
finally you write "because they can offer updates via firmware" - and that's the main problem: they did not.
- While you are prety cocky with "My advise open your wallet instead of your mouth" - you brought one great suggestion for an app... purchased.
thanks.
Trying to understand the issue ...
I must be missing something here. My notes work fine on my Note 10.1 (2012 edition) and my Note II.
There are some minor differences, but I can still read them on both devices.
OP is fruatrated because not all Samsung devices are using the same version of note-taking software, right?

My take is the newest version on the Note 3 will convert notes from 2/10 to a newer format. And the 2/10 do not YET have the newer version of SNote to use the newer format.

Ahhh, so when you work on things with your Note 3, they are no longer compatible with your Note 2/10.1(2012) ... that's no good.
What happens when you try to open them? Would you be willing to share a screenshot of an error or ... ? Your Note II/10.1 just won't see them?

The converted notes become invisible for old s note application. (not much to screenshot)
I would share the current s-note3 app if anyone is better at finding out why it won't install on the 10. 1
s note app with Samsung Apps Store
It will probably roll out with the next OS update. Samsung committed to take the 10.1 as far as 5.0. I'm betting it will go to 4.3 before Christmas since compatibility with Gear needs 4.3 and they want you to buy a Gear for Christmas!

2 or 3 weeks
I had the same problem called the dutch samsung helpdesk he told me this problem would be fixed when 10.1 update to 4.3 in about 2 to 3 weeks.
other differences
The new SNOTE stores its files in a differnent folder on the sd card and in additon, the old snote could handle folders of notes, but the new one doesn't seem to support this.
EDIT: It does support folder but you have to tap the "recent note" and then the menu allows you to create a folder. The only way to possible share between verison I can see is to export from Note3 to pdf and then import the pdf in Note 2. Sucks..

I was also quite disappointed with S Note. I used Samsung Note 10.1 (2012)'s S Note extensively, and sync them to the Samsung account. Just bought the 2014 Note 10.1, and to my surprise, the old S Notes don't sync over.
I resorted to Syncing with Evernote, and then opening up in Evernote in the 2014 edition. When I click on the notes, it says I have to covert them to the new format. When I did, it looked like everything was mucked up. Diagrams all went out of alignment etc.
Anyone know what to do to get around this??

The best would be if somebody managed to install note3.apk from a newer device, on the 10.1
Do you still have the old one? If so export the notes to PDF. Maybe lots of work but should get them moved.

Does PvP2 support the N7

Hi, as you may know, Plants Vs. Zombies 2 is finally available world wild for android users. It's just launched yesterday.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ea.game.pvz2_row&hl=en
Problem is, it doesn't seem to work with the N7, at least with mine. Somehow I can't start the app, the screen just goes black and nothing happens. It works perfectly on my Galaxy S3 though. I don't know if it's ROM related or it just doesn't support android tablets. Is any one having this issue as well?
The link you attached when I clicked it it said not compatible with Nexus 7.
This link Plants Vs. Zombies 2
Says it is compatible with Nexus 7
Weird. It's actually the opposite for me. The link I provided says "this app is compatible with all your devices". The link you give me doesn't.

[Q] should I buy it ?

Hello guys
I want to buy the tab 4 t230 mainly for reading pdf files
is it a good tablet and how about its performance ? I don't want it to be all laggy
thanks for your help
I don't know about the 230, but I have the 330 model and reading PDF files, and any other sort of document is a overall good experience for me. One could make the argument that bigger is better, but for me having the 8" model in horizontal or even vertical layout has worked quite well when it came to looking at notes, editing documents or even reading textbooks for college lectures/classes. I haven't noticed any lag when it came to just looking at a file, only when it came to running graphics intensive games.
(Quick summary) I use the 8" tablet daily and love it. recently, I purchased two textbooks from the play store and reading them and other PDF files work perfectly. :good:
-still it's always good to browse around.
Update: Before I made the purchase on the 8" model I read around that if you have a little bit extra it was a good idea to buy the 8" model over the 7" cause of the different processors inside. So it's all about how much you're willing to spend.

Edit. I would not buy the 7...
I bought the 8 and the below is for the 8...sorry. I forgot to mention that.
The tab in itself is decent, but with samsung pushy BS Apps the tab is slower...
However, should you buy the tab >> Root device with Towel root >> Freeze / uninstall all bloatware >> Install nova launcher >> Disable animations system wide >> Move larger apps to SD >> Presto = You've got a good tab!
Samsung software is not needed whatsoever. You can get a huge performance advantage by removing bloatwares and providing near android stock performance with nova launcher and animations disabled.
srsly no, i am still unable to root it, for the same price i would suggest a nexus 7
I rooted it out of the box a night or two ago. Just got it.
Same here, root capabilities were available a few weeks to a month after it was available for purchase back in june. I bought my tablet back in May when it first came out. However, I would still agree that a nexus 7 would be a good purchase if you just want to use a tablet for reading PDFs. Actually the Nexus 7 2013 edition is on sale for $159 on Ebay. The Nexus is still Googles current-gen device as of now and has many accessories and what not available, while it took months before I could even buy a cheap case for this tablet ( Better cases and accessories are out now, just not a plethora made specifically for the Tab4).

What is your device model? My tab is the 8 inch one. The 8 and 10 have similar specs and processor whereas the 7" tab has a marvel based processor and thus is different methodology to root.
Also, Yes I did update to latest firmware on my tab. Opened the box, ran updates, and rooted all about 3 days ago.

thx for replying, mine is the 7 inch SM-T230, guess i will wait awhile
I do too know if I am speaking out of place, but can you return it and get the 8? Fr9. What is love ready Modders are having issues with the 7. The 8 and 10 are where it's at. I believe the 7 will always be sluggish.

yeah its a gift from the telephone company, if i get to pick i prolly will go with the 10 inch one, or the new sony z3tc
Ah, you might be out of luck until they can find a better root method for the marvel processor in your model..
Thiugh, reportedly if you go to the towel root thread it has worked for 7 inch users.
