Note 5 features I want on my Note 4 - Sprint Galaxy Note 4 General

First one is signing PDF without downloading any other apps. Second one is using the spen when screen is off for quick notes. I would love to have these features on my note 4.

The only thing we won't get I'm sure will be here by 3rd party is a click pen. Lmao. I'm good with the note 5 plus edition or aka note 4..m

The "capture a whole Web page, even the offscreen bits" feature would be nice. So would the enhanced camera app with manual controls.
As for the "offscreen writing" feature, the fact that it only works with S Note is what kills it for me. I'd much rather use OneNote since it's what I've grown used to with my Tablet PCs over the years, and the Windows version of S-Note that I can grab here is pretty terrible by comparison. (Can't grab the Windows Store version, it just flatly refuses to let me, as if Samsung arranged it to only allow installation on their ATIV PCs.)

And MST for Samsung Pay, too. Too bad these things can't be added with a software update.

I think that below rom port will fit with you

Marshmallow update on the Note 4 will enable s-pen usage while the screen is off.

S Note is useless!

Am I the only person slightly dissappointed with the software side of the Galaxy Note? I enjoy a bit of cooking once in a while, so was going to write up some recipes in S Note. But, so far, it has been a nightmare! It certainly is not as easy as commercials would have you believe...

For example, I wanted to write ingredients into a table but shape match failed to even recognise an almost perfect square.
Sent from my GT-N7000
I think it is very useful. Especially the math formula recognition
But, it just does not seem to work. It just feels all very awkward.

Probably!
I find it really easy to use and have pretty much stopped taking anything but my Note to meetings at work, shopping when I need a list, annotating images and sending them via email, etc.
I've even used the MHL out to connect to a projector and do software and process diagrams on it!

If you aren't getting on with S-Note try another app instead of moaning about it. FreeNote is free and pretty feature rich.
I don't know I use S Note quite a lot as my journal. Doesn't really use it for work.'coz I use s memo for that. But yeah I do think it's quite usefull

Well, I have found an option in "Settings" which means that my finger doesn't let me draw - makes it easier now that I can now rest my hand on the device's screen whilst writing.

I use S Note for storing recipes, as I like to do a bit of cooking and I can easily capture text and images from recipe sites into S Note - ready to test the recipes whenever I feel like it. I also use it for any other general notes that I need to take, but I utilise S Memo for taking memos. This means any tasks or reminders, which I link into S Planner, or a shopping list for example.

That setting just makes it so that you can only write with the pen. You can rest your hand on the screen with or without the setting. Palm rejection is built into the OS.

Yes, S Note is very immature peace of software. Especially its hand writing recognition is a joke. Useless. The only usable is MyScript Note, ported from Lenovo. I think this company delivered its engine for S Note's math formula, thats the only feature usable.
For me its a must have device now, won't leave home without it, I do have a few other phones but somehow I m beginning to feel there are rather obsolette even my S2 or One X. Who needs a Tab

Is the S Note app available on stock Gingerbread firmware or is it a new feature of stock Ice Cream Sandwich firmware?
I apologise for my rather stupid query. I cannot seem to recollect as I am presently on a custom Gingerbread firmware.

The hardware is good, even the S-Pen. But, S-Note itself and S-Memo as well both feel rather limited. What do people here even use it for?

Initial thoughts just received it

I still have my non rooted note 2. I had a nightmare reinstalling my back ups the ones on my memory card could be found .Thank for my phone explorer that saved the day for some .
Also Kies didn't work with this at all it days I need a new version which I could find.a whole day wasted so far .(this is one area where iPhone is leaps above.)
Seems to take longer to turn on.
Overall I like it and the back is good non slippery.
Haven't had time to check it all or the pen apps but I few things I notice .
No Polaris office but there's a Polaris viewer only but I can't find it in the apps.no radio.and the my files manager seems complex.
I have a gps app called Osmand from my old note and the maps where on the sd card but it doesn't seem to find it.
In fact only my music and photos where recognized none of the data or backups where recognized.
I'm using nova launcher but the touch wiz is real fast now .
Screen is great too early to tell about battery .
Haven't tested the camera yet .
But one bug thing for me exchange active sync is white and Grey now much better to see.
The one thing that has left a bad taste is the back ups I used my back up pro to my memory card plus even nova back up couldn't be found but Kies has to be rewriten.
Please ask any questions and I'll try to help as I still have my old note.
Also my bookmarks didn't come over using the standard samsung browser en en though it's synced.
Sorry if this post is disjointed just wanted to update you all

Hi mate, I want to ask you about the speaker performance (sound volume and quality) of Note 3 compared to Note 2 because there are some contradictions between which one is better and also about the sensitivity of touch screen and stylus! Don't forget to update us about the battery performance of your Exynos powered Note 3 and contrast it with your Note 2! Thanks and have fun with it:good:

Its been abt 12 hours I m using Note 3 and have been a user of Note 2 also the speakers are better then Note 2
Plus its placed beside charging point which is very good and the sound is very clear unlike Note 2 where keeping it on a table blocks the sound and makes it choppy
I loved the Keyboard its superb
Over all the device is very fast not lagged even once so far half the Ram free if all apps are closed
The Touch is very responsive and the screen is flat
One more thing this device is not for some one who wants more flexiblty as its little big and ideal if used with 2 hands
Hope this helps

Amazing app found for our device

If your Samsung note 10.1 2014 edition is rooted
Check this app out https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ma.wanam.xposed
It's awesome, you can customise the notification drawer etc
Best thing is you can trick the tab into thinking it's not customised under security setting and setting it to m official, this mean you can receive updates normally through settings

Looks good but wouldn't receiving the updates undo root though?
Most likely but doub there will more than a couple more updates like kit kat next year. Worth it , doesn't take long to re root it

Can't get this module to work. Changed several settings but it has no effect (even after reboot). You got it working on your Note?
One thing I've noticed and that's a show stopper for me, is that if you've got a PIN unlock set, the unlock screen is forced to portrait mode. The way I've got my tablet charging on my desk this means that it's upside down. Note that this module works really well on my Note 3.

Definitely a great app. It's great to check to see if there's actually any updates for my device, since the coverage of this device's updates seem to be very hard to find and different for different areas of the world.
But way more importantly, the main feature to get this app is to add any app to multi-window, like the other Note devices could do with MultiWindow Manager (which doesn't work for 10.1 2014).

Just a heads up.... you're not allowed to post in this subforum unless you are the developer who has developed something to share with others.
This thread should have been posted in the Q&A or General subforum.
With that said, if you want 4.4.4 then you have to wait for it to be released for Note 3 drivers/firmware or you need to flash an AOSP ROM.
I don't understand why you want a ported rom, just porting the UI, apps etc is enough for me. We're never going to have the full functionality of the Note 4

I just want all the new multitasking things like the Recents and the Penwindow enhancements.
From what I understand there must be some new lockscreen effects too but I'm not sure also from a user's perspective it would be simpler to have a note 4 ported rom instead of flashing over the needed apps mods boot animation etc etc to make a 4.4.2 room look like a note 4 rom my opinion of course no harm intended but from a devs perspective it wouldn't be same case I believe. ..

Note 4 multi window functionality for Note 3

Hi,
I've been searching the internet for a solution to have the Note 4 multi window functionality for my Note 3 (especially the floating window part). So far I've only found partial answers, but no real solution.
So here's my question: is it possible? If so, please point me in the right direction
Thanks!
If this is what you mean by multiwindow, flashing a Note 7 ported ROM might be the easiest way to get this, can't say about stock ROM though as I've only used stock for a week or two

Multi window is implemented in any Note3's stock rom since... always ! It's odd that you ask this question.

This is cool for people without a Galaxy Note phone, because it adds the functionality of the Pen App Launcher. But what this module does, I can already do with the stock rom of the Note 3. What the Note 4 (and the following Notes) make it better is that they've bundled all the multi window functionality into one "app" or "launcher" (don't know how to call it).
On the Note 3, you have the regular multi window functionality (with the sidebar), and the floating window functionality (which can be launched with the S Pen, or a Pen Launcher App).

Everything you are describing that the Note 4 does can already be done in Note 3 but maybe you just don't know how to do it yet. Are you referring to being able to open up Facebook in normal mode and then trying make it in to a floating window? All you have to do is have the Multi-Window option "On" and then drag, with either your finger or your pencil, from either top corner drag down and it turns into a floating window.
YOU CAN ONLY DO THIS WITH SUPPORTED APPS (Chrome, Facebook, Whatsapp, etc...)
You need a custom ROM (Like Phronesis N7 that has already been mentioned) to be able to do this with ANY app
Let me know if this answers your question. I am not sure why you think the Note 4 has something extra when it has the exact same features and the Note 3 Multi-Window features.

I'm afraid you're completely wrong. What you describing the Note 3 can't do. Another extra functionality the Note 4 has is that you can create a floating app if that app is in split screen mode. You can only get a floating app with the Note 3 by using the S-Pen Launcher.

Well, it also depends on what version of stock ROM you are on. I had previously stuck with stock Lollipop 5.0 and I could easily access floating windows without the use of the S-Pen
I think if you are on Kit-Kat it's a whole different story. What version are you on?
