Hello and greetings.
I've been wondering if it's possible to use s pen features with fingers and not the s pen? I've searched alot about this question with no luck.
Any suggestions?

If you want just for drawing i can use iBis Paint X. The app is very good for drawing more than S note.
The app used for any android device without pen. So its morebpowerfull if you have note phone.
If you mean for screenshot/ crop / or other like pen out you cant so it

I'm looking for a shortcut to the scroll capture option without having to take use the pen.
Wrong section, this should be in Q&A.

Hello. Today I flashed a rom, and there are no S-Pen applications. Is there a possibility to install them afterwards?
You have posted in the wrong forum.
But to answer your question: no I'm sorry. The s pen apps from samsung need samsungs touchwiz to work. You have to find alternatives. I miss them too :/ but with that said some of the alternatives are quite ok.
Next time search before posting.

It really depends on what ROM you flashed. S-Pen apps are not supported with cm9 or any cm based rom. You can search about it.

It may be semantics, but cm9 does not make the s-pen useless. Sure you can't run Samsung's s-pen applications, but there are applications that seem to use at least some of the s-pen features. I recently downloaded "Papyrus". You can write easily with the pen and it knows the difference between the pen and your finger. (You can write with the pen and erase with your finger). I found this quite effective. The pen button is functional as well. I was so impressed I assigned Papyrus to my "Home, Back" key combination. (I haven't used s-note long enough to know where Papyrus falls short however).

S-pen apps, please re-read my statement. I'm on cm9 nightlies right now and I have tried that. The pen was not taken for granted and I have been using it. Thus, you are stating what I've stated, just made it brief.
What S-Pen apps are there that are not done better with 3rd party apps. I am using Clean Note 3 at the moment but have remaoved all Samsung apps including S-Note. Papyrus is just better than S-Note. In fact I can't remember when I last used the S-Pen as I have terrible hand writing and can't draw so it is wasted on me.
No it cant be. I'd try that also when im on Paranoid android rom.
First. I backup s memo when im on stock ICS.
And try to restore when im on paranoid android.
It says "Application not installed" And it stay in it.
I recommend to use MIUI beta 6 or Criskelo v7 rom.
It has a S memo and S note
I only need the calender. is there a good alternative?
No, and frankly you should have read up better before flashing - it is pretty common knowledge that Samsung exclusive apps aren't going to work on a non-Samsung OS. It is like having Internet Explorer on Linux!

Hey all,
So if you own an original galaxy note, this video is a way to prepare you for the departure between you and your galaxy note in order to move onto the galaxy note 2 (in a fun way of course!). It's a rumour round up but done slightly differently

Thanks man, glad you liked it. I'm particularly interested in the extra S-pen apps that Samsung may include. Hopefully there'll be an improvement in that regard and maybe they'll also include the windowed multitasking like the note 10.1
It 's too early to talk of the Notes 2. Comunque bel video
Cool video man

I noticed in your video there were some SPen apps that had full screen or at least hid the notification bar. Do you happen to know what SPen apps hide the notification bar? I'd rather not use the stock SPen apps as I fear notification bar burn out since I usually spend quite a long time on the screen.
Thanks and as always you make great vids. You must be a graphic designer or a video editing guru cause the presentation value is always top notch.

Hey there, I only used S-note in that video and it still has a notification bar on the top, where did you see the full screen app?
Cheers for the response man. It means a lot
James; awesome stuff as always.

Nice Video compilation, but we´ll see what the note 2 really brings, real soon...
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 default hovering pen icon is just a tiny little dot...
But I wish it could be changed to another shape like cursor on PC destop...
Pls help me.
Thank you.
Hmm, in LectureNotes you can select the size of the hover so it shouldn't be impossible to change in other apps as well like a launcher.

Yeah, it does in LectureNotes.
I currently working with Screencast creating math tutorial and post it on youtube. But I think the student would be confuse if they couldn't see the hover. There is a problem when recording on LectureNote, it's lagging (paused somehow). So I chose S-Note (built-in app on galaxy note 10.1), my problem is just the tiny hover. There is no hover setting in S-Note
The pen pointer has changed in the 4.1.1 (something) rom I'm using on my n8010, it's a small light blue ring with a hole in the center that matches the s pen's tip. I find that it's nicer than the dot, but I didn't see any new options to change the icon. It would be great to have some more customization, especially for using drawing apps.

I see your problem. I use YouTube lectures from Kahn academy and similar videos all the time, some have a pointer and even though I prefer that most videos doesn't and it's usually no problems if the teacher is switching colors and tell where he's writing. Some courses are better than others, math is imo pretty straightforward compared to other classes where you have to make and edit large flowcharts etc. But that of course depending on what level of math we're talking about.
A way around your problem would be not to use any recording tool but to actually record the screen itself. Ie, just like you take a screenshot but like a video instead. This however, usually requires root and that might not be something you want to if it's not your tablet. I also think there are programs to record your voice simultaneously too, something I don't think SNote is doing.

I recently went to the samsung app store and picked up sketchbook pro note version with the spen button shortcut, I was under the impression when I picked it up I could mod the spen button to any shortcut I wanted and this is not the case. I was wondering if there is any way someone that knows how to modify it so that spen button would bring up the eye dropper tool, I use the eye dropper a lot for blending and would really appreciate any help ty

Try Clover Paint out. You can customize what the S-Pen button does (on contact, or while hovering). It's a pretty powerful painting app, and the UI requires a little getting used to. IMO, it's the best sketching/painting app on Android.
I do really like the way sketchbook work but I'm willing to give it a shot, you have a link?

Sorry for resurrecting that thread, but I bought Sketchbook Pro a few hours ago.
I've been playing with it and enjoying it, but was wondering about a few things that keep me from getting the full experience. Was hoping you guys could help me out or point me in the right direction.
1. In LectureNotes, the S-pen has this little dot on the screen where the pen points... Any way to enable this on Sketchbook pro?
2. Is there some way to make use of the S-button ? Would really love to use it like a one-time eraser as in LectureNotes.
3. The resolution seem really low... Zooming in just shows extremely blurry lines, as opposed to Quill or (again) LectureNotes. Increasing the size doesn't help... Any way to change that ?
4. And also block the canvas from resizing because of the palm... It gets pretty annoying.
If none of that's possible in Sketchbook pro, is there any that actually can do all that and is similar it?
Thanks in advance !

enable pen mode in the options will solve 1 and 4
what's the difference between the version in play store and the one in samsung store...
I bought the one from the play store
Pen mode is already activated, the only response my fingers get are the resizing and menu browsing... I searched every option (again) I could find, could not find anything related to my post above.
I don't know about the Samsung store version however, I always use the Play Store. But I doubt the versions be different.
What about infinite painter for note

Figure this...
I rooted my Note3 and happily installed CyanogenMod11 nightly (KK4.4.2). All fine and very happy, but I miss the S Pen features and apps.
How would it be possible to get S Pen features back, but remain on CM11?

You cannot get all the features back however you can try
GMD SPen control, as it has some SPen functions, used it myself without issue.
for pie control and more i use LMT.
great app ! would be cool if you could trigger the pie with the s pen button.

Hmmm... GMD looks promising. Thanks alot. But... does your answer also mean I can forget about re-flashing S-Pen API separately somehow, and re-flashing the original S-Pen apps? Is that a totally stupid idea?
I know some of you readers will think "well, why did you root and flash another rom from the begining, if you liked it before?". Well it was originally full of bloat - we all know that - and the only thing worthy was the S-Pen features and the pen itself.
Anyone tried?
Thanks again.

Yeah you can't flash SPen stuff due to it being dependent on the TouchWiz framework.

I like the menu pop up when you click the pen, to take screen shots and take a quick note. Honestly I rely on them daily since I use my phone for work also, I probably wont flash due to this.
