Spen app - select and search - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am looking for an app that can select text on the screen and do a Google search. There doesn't seem to be Amy development on the spen itself. Anyone find any 3rd party pen apps out there?

Because the stock software doesn't do this, I find the SPen a gimmick.

When keyboard is open, long press the microphone symbol (bottom row, between SYM and spacebar). A bar with six icons will pop up. 3rd from the left (looks like a battery to me) will open up anything in clipboard. This is the only way I'm aware of but not sure if there's another way.

Thanks for pointing this out. Also if you long press on one od the items in the clipboard, it opens a contextual menu with additional options for your clips. I like the lock feature. I've always used an app called "Clipper " but I'm gonna play with Samsung's Clipboard app and see if I like it .

Thank you guys for this. I didn't know that was possible.
Is there a way to get to the clipboard if you're not using the Samsung keyboard? I am using Swype.
Thanks again.

Good question. Occasionally I'm in some text editor and I see a panel of clipboard of copied and cut text snippets, but I don't know how to recreate it.

Yeah, I've been using Clipper for about 3 years now, the best I've found so far. I like the sync feature with the PRO version because it sync's across all my android device. I like that you can create sets, I have an email set that holds all my email addresses. Very handy little app. Haven't had any problems using it with my Note 3.

[Q] what is this feature and where is its settings?

First, sorry my bad english ☺
So,when I put my finger on the bottom of the screen and slide up, appears circle with google and memo. What is this and where can I adjust it?
Tried to search forum, but no luck, cause I don't know its name ?
Seems like like most people call that feature the "nav bar ring" or "navigation bar ring".
That's the most I can do to help you. I'm not on a stock ROM anymore and can't recall any ring-specific settings.
My brother, who is new to Android, was just asking me about this yesterday. I did some research and it appears to be part of Jelly Bean and not an LG feature.
I cannot find anywhere to modify the apps shown on the swipe up in the phones stock settings. It looks like some Cyanogen developers are looking into it.
I did find there is an app called Google Now Swipe Disabler in the market that will let you change the top app option only. That might help for the short term, in the long term I think XDA will deliver the goodies.

Hope this helps.
Correct. The ring is AOSP. I can't say for sure if stock AOSP allows for customization, but I believe it does. I know AOKP has allowed customization of it for a long time.
It is from Jellybean and LG modified it. No setting for it that I'm aware of.
Thank you all!
Quite strange it don't have settings ability..
Google Now swipe up, my Nexus 7 has it and there no built-in settings to modify the swipe settings. The above link only disables it, but the swipe up function is still there, just with nothing to select.

It's one of the most irritating functions of the phone. I will never use Google now. But it happened I accidentally pressed the button of it.

Lost access to Pen Window

I lost the ability to use the pen window, the thing that allows you to draw a square, and an app will appear in it. I'm not talking about the pen window manager, where you add apps, I'm talking about the functionality. I must of deleted or frozen the wrong app. Anyone have idea of what it was?

Check it this app. It's an air command shortcut.

Any way to change delay when holding home for recent apps??

Hi, im running xnote v8 and was wondering, if there is anything available wether as an add on, wanam module or root app or an in rom tweak that can shorten the delay between when holding the home button to bring up the recent apps as I find it too long even on stock touchwiz.

Have the same thing here

I use xposed framework, and the module xposed aditions, you need root for this
When ever I tap on xposed aditions, it judt gives me a little prompt saying "This module does not provide a user interface" the module was already installed with the ROM I believe, tried Uninstalling it then reinstalling it but it doesnt uninstall although it says it does. And updating it doesnt work either as it saying "an existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is installed.
Any advice?

the reason there is delay when you press home button, is because system is waiting to see if it's double press to bring up voice command screen. There is a menu where you can disable double click and that should make wait much shorter, but I can't remember which menu is it ATM. This works on stock, I can't help with custom software.
Look in the Play store for Switcher. You can swipe from the bottom, left or right side of screen to open recent apps.

just install nova launcher or go launcher ex and create a gesture, one or two fingers sliding up to show the recent apps. a lot more convenient and quicker to access recents.

This seems like a much better option than trying to map a double click of the home key. Here's to hoping it works!
