[Q] Keyboard shortcuts? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys!
I hope this has not been discussed and it's not a dumb question.
I just got my first android phone which is the note3. Ex-apple fanboy and man am I glad I switched!
Dont think I can ever go back to my iphone ever again.
That said, I cant seem to figure out one feature. Is there a way to create keyboard shortcuts? Ie - type omw and the phone will convert that to on my way?
I have looked online and all over in the phone and this is driving me insane!
Thanks again!

I don't actually know if there is a keyboard out there that supports it. SwiftKey doesn't and the Samsung stock doesn't either. Smart keyboard might have this feature, you can try search for it in the playstore. But if it's not that important to you, then I'd suggest to try SwiftKey instead. It's a killer keyboard and I bet it will blow your mind if you're used to Apple's keyboard

thanks for the informative post!
I guess I will have to keep my eye open for something of the sort in the future.
Out of curiousity, I thought I read about some form of screen recording function on the galaxy note, but have no yet found that either.
Is that a feature of the note3 or an app? All I can do is screenshots it seems...

The Note 3 does not have screen recording. It is not limited to hardware though, so it is possible in the future. Screen recording is built in with Android 4.4 and above, so you might see the feature in the upcoming 4.4 update for Note 3. However, it will probably not arrive until January sometime is my guess. It's also worth noting that especially Samsung is known for removing some of Androids core features and add some of their own. Therefore it's not sure that we will get screen recording with 4.4 for Note 3. With that being said, you can download an application that offers screen recording, however that require your phone rooted. Keep in mind that rooting will possibly break your warranty.

Thanks for the info! Rooting Isn't a problem, and I'm ok with the warranty thing. I actually pay a monthly fee for an extended warranty because I drop phones a lot
I wish Samsung would be more like the Nexus series!
Any programs that record the screen that you guys recommend?

I don't know any myself, I just know there are a few in the Play Store. I never had the need for it myself, so I haven't tried them out. I'd recommend searching in the playstore and looking for the most downloaded one as well as the one with most stars.

Don't wait for Screen Recoring in our Galaxy Note II N7100 ...

Pretty sure that most of Note II usesrs were waiting for the screen recording option that Samsung already announced ...
we were thinking that future software updates will add that option....
but that will not happen as Samsung already declared it on their official website in FAQ section that they will not add that option due to potential copyright concerns in some regions.
here is the article :
[FAQs] Smart Phone : My Galaxy Note II , GT-N7100 does not support the Screen Recording function?
Although Galaxy Note II,GT-N7100 was introduced at IFA event in 2012 with a Screen Recording function.
Samsung have decided not to include this feature in the final product due to potential copyright concerns in some regions.
As a result, Samsung does not, at this time, have a Software upgrade plan for the Screen Recording function.

Ye i figured they had killed this idea, in my view it has more to do with current versions of Android than anything else. Consider how many screen recording tools are on the play store and how many of them work properly with JB... err none!
If you want to record your screen get an MHL cable and a HDMI capture card only full proof way right now to do screen capture.
Anyone else want to way in with screen recorder conspiracy theories or am I on my own on this one
I don't think people are waiting for Samsung to do it. They're waiting for someone to jack the apk somehow and leak it in the Internet so they can flash it into their phones.

Some people have got the APK and have been looking for how to implement it, but there appears to be a host of libs and framework files required that we simply do not have.
Without those additional files we cannot use it.
The best alternative is to use Screencast, but root is required.

Soooo..... Are they going to remove the screenshot feature as well? Maybe disable the microphone? Axe the camera too... prevent any files from being download to the device?
I think Sammy just fed us a steaming spoonful of BS.

Torrents can still be downloaded to a device, much easier and better quality. You can also use the video camera feature if you're separate, but really, who uses recoding for pirating video? They can disable audio and problem solved. Our reduce it to 15fps... or a dozen other things, but they should remove or completely.
I need screen casting to help debug apps, not to pirate videos. Lots of people have legitimate uses.

AT&T Note 8 Question

I currently have the wi-fi Note 8.0 and love it. I would like to get the AT&T model but is it rooted yet and does the multi-window option work? Finally is the AT&T note stuff here or is there another area to look for? Hopefully these questions don't sound to dumb.

Rooted Yet - No
MultiWindow - Yes
This is it for AT&T Note 8 LTE SGH-I467
I'm sure that it will be rooted soon. (I Hope). I got one a week ago and love it. I only want root so I can install Titanium Backup. Custom Roms are nice, but I just want to be able to debloat and have a good backup
since this is a question, you should have posted it in Q&A....

I agree, I should have caught that.
The AT&T model is not rooted yet. The multiwindow feature works great. There is no specific forum for the AT&T model so we discuss it here. I highly recommend picking it up if you can. I'm absolutely in love with mine. It'll be even more awesome once they get it upgraded to Android 4.2.
I too purchased the AT&T Note 8. On the morning it became available actually. I too love the Note 8 and highly recommend it. Especially so with the bundle deal that brings the price down to $199.
That said I have found a few issues that are in need of fixing. Firstly, of course, is the ability to root so one can use Titanium Backup to debloat. But also many have found that the screen freezes momentarily randomly. If you want to use it to play games you will be disappointed. Also, every time you power up (boot up) the current version of the software resets all factory defaults so that 3rd. party keyboards for example are deselected and you have to manually select them as default. I personally have also found that the Samsung calendar as well as google calendar doesn't automatically sync with your Samsung and/or your Google accounts, you have to do this manually as well.
these are all reasons that I bought the wifi version; we already have root, there are custom roms/kernels, custom recovery, and since there is wifi almost everywhere, and where there isn't, I can tether to my Note2, I didnt see any reason to give ATT another dime of my $$$$
hope you guys get root/custom recovery soon, because a tweaked, debloated,OC'd Note 8.0 is nothing but fun!

I hear you. However, some of us who were buying new phones anyway the AT&T bundle deal pricing of $199 for the Note 8 as opposed to the $499 retail made sense. Yes, I would liked to have root already but I will live with the wait in light of the initial cost savings. Now when can I get a Note 3???? :laugh:
not sure where you heard the wifi was 499; I got mine for 350 at Best buy, and I think there are places selling at 325...
but yeah, 199 is a nice price....
Note 3 is a ways away, i think!
I'm sure you'll have root soon; maybe send a pm to Chainfire, and see if he is working on it yet...

I also find that Chrome has problems. I don't know if it's a Chrome issue or a ROM issue but Chrome seems to not get click placement right when tapping on the screen, especially when using the pen. You have to tap below a link to get it to actually fire. Very annoying. Even with the brand new Chrome 28 release a day ago, it still does this. I'm using the stock browser until this gets resolved.

Is almost certainly a Chrome issue. Chrome 26 works fine. The problem was introduced in Chrome 27. I'm sure it'll get fixed eventually. In the meantime I'm just using the stock browser. I didn't see it as a big enough issue to do something drastic like taking it back.

Last night's update of Chrome Beta (their second patch for this issue) fixed the problem for me. It will likely be a number of weeks before the patch makes it to the stable Chrome release.

Yeah I just saw that. Thank God they fixed it! I want to use Chrome rather than the stock browser. I hate that sites I open on the Note 8.0 don't get synced to my other devices. haha

Okay, I thought I was either drunk or crazy. I swore Chrome was registering wrong clicks and it would eventually just stop with the input all together. What a terrible bug - I too was forced to use the stock browser. Glad it's fixed in the latest release. Let's hope that makes it into the Play store sooner rather than later.

Hello Fellow S4 Users!!!

Hey all!!!
I've made my return to XDA after about a year of using an old blackberry when my last HTCrap broke.. I was so sad without my android I spent time fussing with my iPad Mini and it wasn't the same!
So over the weekend I finally switched from T-Mobile to AT&T and I couldn't be happier with my service (the LTE is FAST!!) nor the phone cause this S4 is such a treat as I'm sure you all know.
So as I try to get settled back into what was the daily XDA grind of helping fellow users and always trying to gain knowledge of our device and anything Android I felt it would benefit me if I could get a jump start in my new community!
I have a few questions that I know I can/will answer myself but I would value all and any input from you guys
So first off... What's gone wrong with the ROOT???? I was so excited when the S3 came out boot loader unlocked already and all... I had even pre ordered that one at one point.. But here it seems there is only a select percent of users who have attained root on their phone? Seems as if we as a community haven't quite unlocked our phones full potential yet!!
My next question stems from that last question. How is the development scene looking for our device?
I know the Samsung legacy has been a very attractive platform for some wonderful developers in the past, and that was something I was looking forward to with the S3 and is still true for my S4! My question is how good is our outlook?
Anyways other than that just little questions I have that I am sure i'll figure out as I get back into it all
Any good apps you guys could recommend that have maybe gained a footing in the past few months?
That's guys and I can't wait to get to start poking around and helping out as our device gets rolling!!!
Cheers!
Matt

Oh and also guys!!!
This is my first Samsung phone I have had all HTCraps ever since my G1 it was all those htcs!!!! So even though I've read lots about the odin and that USB Jig thing and all that from the S2 days and such I don't quite understand what that is and why it is that we have to pay attention to such on our Sammie's... So if anyone could point me in the direction of a good guide to learning that maybe I would be much appreciative!!!
Thanks!!

A lot will depend on which firmware you have. If you have mdl or mdb your pretty much good to go. BUT, take your SIM out now and do some research. If you have mf3 you only can root, no custom recovery or flashing roms.
Edit, and no odin back to stock. Very important to consider.

Will the US Note 3 come with auto correct?

Okay so we all know the S4 for the US carriers had the auto correct feature disabled without any way to enable it (Thank you Apple). Installing an international keyboard resulted in extreme lag.
The big question is will the Note 3 keyboard suffer the same fate because of the Apple lawsuit? I know some of you dislike auto correct but for me typing without it is an infuriating mess. I like Swiftkey and the Android keyboard but I really like Samsung's number row at the top and would prefer to use that instead.
Perhaps N2 keyboard could be ported in case it's disabled?
Why not download Google keyboard from play store
Never mind I see you mentioned that already
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
If I'm not mistaken samsung keyboard is the only keyboard that supports multi-window
Auto-correct isn't universally reviled?
hmmm so nobody knows the answer to this one? I was about to make a thread and found this one thanks to the XDA feature before creating a thread, previous ones pop up....
But this questions sort of suggests that the International version of the Note 3 comes with auto correct within the new keyboard.... why would the US version not come with it? can someone confirm? i loved the Note 2's keyboard but it didnt have auto correction... just word prediction but you could not enable auto correct, press the space bar and continue typing on the keyboard... this should be a no brainer feature to have but for some reason, Samsung keeps finding a way to avoid adding it to the features..
again, can someone confirm? we'd appreciate it a lot
My phone is unbranded&unlocked and I bought it here in the Middle East so I have no idea what US or EU carriers will have.
But yes, it does come with auto-correct although they call it "auto-replacement".
Other included options: Auto-Capitalization, Auto-Spacing, Auto-Punctuate, Predictive Text Continuous Input, Character Preview etc...
The AT&T version most certainly has all the auto correct features you could ever want, even with hand written

I've owned Android since the good old days of the Google G1.
I don't think I've seen 1 version of CM that ran perfectly, no ROM was ever 'finished'.... so I'll be staying away from them from now on.
I'm actually probably NOT going to root my Note 3, can't see what I need to root it for tbh.

My first was the original galaxy i7500 but my cm experience was on the milestone 2 then g2x.
I really like cm when a device is no longer supported by their respective companies.
When I had the nexus 4, I used the latest cm 10.2 nightlies because to me the stock AOSP was lacking a few functions.
The note 3 has its own set of functions that I don't think we will ever see on CM.
However, would be very nice to have a dual booting system so I could flip flop between the two.

If the s4 has it, I am sure the note 3 900 will get it too.
One the biggest reasons for getting the 9005 was because I wanted to stick with a SOC that is easier for devs to work with.
Especially about a year from now when Sammy releases the note 5 and forgets about the note 3, we can at least update to the latest Android with CM

I usually run Paranoid Android on all my devices, but my experience with stock/rooted Note 3 so far has been fantastic, so I'm probably just going to run with things as is for the time being. Once PA releases I'll probably have to reevaluate though ;p

I'm actually probably NOT going to root my Note 3, can't see what I need to root it for tbh.

I kinda feel the same, I bought a few apps recently because it's not rooted. and these apps I'm happy to support because I use them on a daily baisis, like business calendar, poweramp, mx player etc. but I do find root useful for ntfs micro sdcard, especially when a file is bigger than 10GBs.
but what I really liked about a custom rom was editing minor things, having 8 icons along the screen horizontally. instead of what right now, 4? also all apps are HUGE dpi. I feel like when I load my mail. every mother fcker can read it from 5 metres away from me lol..
Ill Probably try it but wont stay with it. Lately on my s4 ive been preferring modded TW roms and will probably continue that with the N3

Not Cyano itself, but I'm waiting for an AOSP derivate, SlimBean.
I don't want to even see Samsung's bloatware ever again.
I'm done with rooting and adding ROMs. I've rooted just about every phone I've owned, and they've never ran 100%. Something always had an issue and not running properly. Today's phone are almost perfect anyway. The Note 3 is bad ass just the way it is! If I do anything to it, it's maybe using Themer to give it a fresh look, but that's it?

I have been pretty impressed with the performance of the GN3 even after rooting. I am also using the s-pen functionality a lot more than i anticipated. I doubt there is any need to go the CM route.
A little off point, but someone mentioned they hadnt rooted yet. I had gone a week without rooting and was fine, but i had to root for tethering (havent installed an app yet though). So far, i have also included quite a bit of additional apps for the Pen Window - VERY handy.
I just need a ROM that will allow tethering.

I will just to try it out but touch wiz has a lot of useful features that are too give to pass up. I will end up switching between the two.

what are these features?
I really hope Samsung implements LG KnockOn gesture though... to save me from pressing the hardware buttons again and again
Maybe a stupid question, but why are we not seeing any AOSP roms at this time ? With other devices they appeared much faster. Dont get me wrong, no trolling on ETA. Cant wait to see this beast (snapdragon 800) run stock android
I'm just waiting to be able to root my phone without voiding its warranty due to KNOX :/

multi window, pen window, air view, S note to name a few. And I generally like the look of touchwiz as well.
