I was wondering if our Nexus 7 can also run multiple windows at the same time just like Galaxy Tab 2 and Note 2. I havnt found any rom yet which supports such thing and some people are saying, an official update would fix that. Is there any chance we can have that on our Nexus 7?

Could you explain what you mean by "windows"? Are you talking about Touchwiz apps?
Edit: also, put Qs in the Q+A section. Actually, someone just asked this (coincidence)?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1974476
There's apps on the play store that supports multi-windows like the note 2. There's a app called "OverSkreen (floating browser)" but it doesn't have support for jelly bean yet.
The OP is referring to the TouchWiz feature of running 2 apps side-by-side. This feature was heavily advertised on the Note 2. I think it is called Multitasking (lame name, I know).
I hadn't heard anything specifically related to the N7, but I did hear that it was part of the TouchWiz framework and it probably wouldn't be available on AOSP ROMs. I am waiting to be corrected though
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!

when did they say that they will commit to take this tablet to 5.0?

Guess committed was a strong word . Saw a article about it but failed to bookmark it. Now I can only find a "leaked info" article.

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.

Given that this is how I and lots of others interact with the phone, it's a big miss on an otherwise great product.
Yes, Ivona is fantastic for now as long as it stays free (new owner Amazon has said it will stay free "until Beta ends" which could be any time). And this is the solution I've adopted.
Yes, I could root and install Google TTS.
And yes, the downloadable Samsung HD voice is significantly better than the stock voice for those who don't want to use Ivona.
But why is Samsung preventing an easy installation of Google TTS?
If anyone solves this for AT&T phones, I'd welcome a lesson on how it can be done.
Dear comunity,
I love samsungs sidesync 3.0 features. And for me it would be great to have sidesync on all android devices or at least a similiar application with the same features.
Is there anyone else who have the same interest like me and in the best case is able to develope/port an app like wanted ?
I have an Galaxy Tab s and an oppo find 7a. So i have at least one samsung device.
An alternative is to have a touchwiz based rom for oppos find 7 and other devices.
The problem is already known from htc sense features....the features and apps we want are integrated into the brand's framework so that the app only as standalo is not working.
Please help me with developing, good suggestions or at least lets start a list to demonstrate that this feature is more than just a feature to play , it is useful and needed
Greets
I'd be interested

Is there a rom without samsung stuff (vanilla style) and without Microsoft apps? I also like the new Gui from Note 7 and S7 Nougat Beta.
Well, if you want to get rid of Samsung's "Stuff", you could try Package Disabler, get google launcher for the "Google Experience" and an icon pack of your preference. Grace UX (the style from Note 7 and S7E Nougat is part of that mentioned Samsung stuff).
