Hi guys, so I have had my note for about a day now and have noticed that the stock browser doesn't have all my bookmarks! Also had a look in sync settings and there is no option to sync bookmarks. Anyone know of any workarounds?
Thanks

Samsung has removed the support for syncing Google Bookmarks from their Browser, which is one of the stupidest things they have done. They now want you to use your Samsung account

Has anyone found a solution to this yet? It's so frustrating that my Note3 has been downgraded from my Note2.

Is it just me or are facebook contacts not working? As in they won't sync with the people app on my phone. It did not work for me in a stock rom or the euroskank rom and i was just wondering how to fix it if there is a possible way. Like is this a nexus thing or something, idk any input would be appreciated!:cyclops:
Does not work for me either with my N4 or N7. Easy way around this is to use haxsync.

From your homepage on your Nexus. Go to settings> accounts > facebook > contacts sync. I think that should work
or use HaxSync.

i just tried haxsync and it didnt work, even after a manual resync and a reboot. this is gunna bother me a lot.
Facebook does not use the proper way Google wants for contact syncs, so that's why it doesn't work on pure Android OS.
Google it.

HaxSync works perfectly for me on my N4. Perhaps there is something wrong with your set up that is preventing HaxSync from working for you?

The fix is for Facebook to fix their Contact sync. Or use 3rd party programs.
Facebook thinks you don't own your contacts. If someone removes you as a friend Facebook things that contact info should dissappear from your phone. That's not right and that's not what Google allows.

Did you also download the haxsync jelly bean workaround? Haxsync is working just fine on both my nexus devices.

I did and it didnt work but i had a euro skank rom so maybe thats why it wasnt working. so i decided to go back to stock and i accidentally formatted the sd card and bricked my phone. scariest moment of my life haha, thank god for wug's nexus root toolkit. Now im back to stock, unrooted and locked. i'm gunna attempt haxsync tomorrow since i am done ****ing with my phone after bricking it!

That's the way I did it, and it worked for me... Stock rooted 4.2.1
The profile pictures sucked, though... I had haxsync, but found that Contact Sync for Facebook does a far better job getting statuses, bdays, and most important, those nice looking, hi res profile pics

What do you all think is the best calendar app for the Note 10.1?
Sent from my GT-N8010 using xda app-developers app
Hi,
I have used Touch Calendar for my phone and currently also for my Note 10.1, works perfectly and has all features I need.
whats wrong with s-planner

I've tried most of them and I find s-planner to be the best of the available options. acalendar is also quite good but I like the integration with touchwiz so it's s-planner for me

I think that also FranklinPlanner Note 10.1 (presently available only on SamsungApps store and not for all countries) could be an interesting choice (see this xda's thread)
Maybe the app is still a little juvenile and needs some improvements but it has a great UI and design (tough rather complex to learn) and a greater integration with handwritten notes than S Planner.

I'm pretty happy with JORTE calendar.
Check out Calengoo. love it!

Second. I combine it with Google calendar and you can make a full page widget.

Resize it. I use Apex launcher. It's not a true full page.
What about Pocket Informant?
They were the only game in town worth mentioning in the Pocket PC days.
I use Touchdown Exchange. Looks a lot like Outlook,, also it supports categories, That is a feature most other calendars lack.
And it syncs to exchange, so if you have hotmail or outlook.com email, you are always synced!
Google calendar.
Nothing else i have ever used has come close to what it can do.
Best calendar widget goes to Android Pro Widgets, however.

I am using it on my phone and my tablet. I have been a user since the palm version and then the ppc. The current android version only shares the name with the good old one. I guess I am only using it for sentimental reasons

I am looking for a calendar that I can make notes on and save the file in say dropbox or box.com so if I make a change on one device it will show on my other device. I don't want to use google calendar because I want my calendar info to be private.
Any ideas?

Not sure how much this will help, but I use dropsync to sync the SNote folder between devices and the notes get synced up. It might be possible to find the calendar data folder and then sync that between devices.

I find myself using DigiCal. Love the clean look.
I'm pretty happy with the stock s calendar. I've tried using a few others, but the look and feel never quite felt as good.

Again - Touchdown Exchange. Switchable profiles, pin, etc etc.
I'm using S calendar - syncing from exchange and gmail
I have also FranklinPlaneer, but it's not so good like stock one
Touchdown tasks:
Does it support Task Categories yet?
Has anyone found an easy way to get S-notes from a Note 2 to a Note 3? Evernote sync is the only way I've found so far but it's a pain.
Sync through your Samsung aco****. It takes a minute and mine failed a couple of times before it succeeded

That doesn't work if you have a VZW Note 2 with stock software. VZW borked the ability to sync the Samsung Account a while back.
How did you sync it to Evernote?
Does anyone know how to move the templates? Like to do the math formula's?

There is an sync option under setting and it lists Google docs and Evernote. It does work but you have to convert each note one at a time.

I got so pissed I just redid all of them from my N2 which was a huge PITA......
download Samsung Smart Switch Mobile from play store. if you still have both old and new phones.
Ok so I got my S5 and I love it. The weird thing and its not a big deal, but is Chrome now the standard default browser? I know that my S4 had the default/ stock internet globe app. But its missing on my S5. Anyone else? I'm on Verizon and using Nova Launcher. I already checked to make sure i didn't hide it. Its not even under the all apps app manager. Thanks

Chrome is the stock browser on the S5 (at least for Verizon...I don't want to say it applies to all versions of the phone since I don't have them all, but I'd assume it applies to most if not all). Samsung doesn't have their own browser on there as they have on past devices.
