Hi Guys,
When you take a screenshot with your spen (click button and hold on screen), your screenshot gets opened automatically in an annotation app.
Any idea what that annotation app is?? Can you open a previously taken screenshot with that app ?

Go to gallery>any pic. Press menu. Select Edit.
It will take you to an app in Samsung Apps. Its called Photo Editor. You can get it from there the full app is excellent! With many more features
I have Photo Editor which I had downloaded from the Samsung Store. Is it that app then which opens automatically when you take a screenshot with the spen?

Yup.
Positive.
l think it is just built in as a part of the screenshot app itself. It looks different to photo editor, but you can do the same thing with photo editor anyway lol.

Yet some might say root or use diff launcher or..., I hope this might be considered in next ICS updates:
Launcher: ability to hide app icons in drawer if I want to.
Data usage: ability to prevent app from using wifi beside mobile data foreground & background if needed (firewall).
Gallery editor: frames effects.
Email (not Gmail): more refresh options such as every 2 hours & from time to time....

Only one atm : Reduce lag in scrolling on some occasions
1) Reboot option when holding the power on/off button
2) Easier way to mass text people
3) Ability mass select individual text messages (in each thread) and then delete them
4) Better stats on what is using the battery
5) When saving panoramic phots, do it quicker and don't delete the picture if the phone locks before the picture is saved
Increased video recording frame rate and enhanced stabilization, reboot option, faster unlock time from the lockscreen to the camera app, enhanced UI responsiveness, built in memo app and voice recorder app, photo editing app kinda like the one on the GS2 and battery saving tweaks

Make the back button relevant when multitasking. Right now, if I hit back after switching from one app to another, I go to the home screen instead back to the previous app.
Customizable lockscreen is mine

Got one more: Swipe Left to REALLY close app in recent app view and swipe right to just get it out of recent app view

the gallery should be able to open jpg files that are in a .nomedia directory and go to previous or next pic like it where a normal picture...
this worked that way on old android version
since ICS if i open a picture in filemanager that is in a .nomedia directory, the galery does not known how to open it...
its ok that it is not shown in the gallery app by default, but if i open it from filemanager it should open ...
Mine would be sort the browser out :
Permanent desktop option ( like browser+ has)
Smoother scrolling
Rewrap text as an option
And i hate the way when tap in and then out it has rerender it , kida reminds me of checkers
Still think its the best browser iv used but fixing these is a must
I'd like to see a higher res and flash for the front camera.
Consistent ui!
We do have a photo editor, and for a note taking option, press the microphone button in the search bar and say "note to self" then speak your message.

I'm talking about more features added onto the photo editing options we already have and not talking about voice memos that translate into text I'm talking about a notepad and a voice recorder to save voice memos

I just want an update lol.
I would like.
*full manual camera setting ISO , shutter speed, manual focus.
*wakelock display in battery stats to show what apps are miss misbehaving so we can report them.
*fix the lag that came with 4.0.2
*fix the wifi drop outs.
*put the toggle wifi GPS ect in the drop down bar along with settings or make it customisable.
*customisable notifications like light flow app.
*fix the all alarm app, when you launch it just launch it straight to the set alarms not a date and time screen.
Everything else is sweet.

From what I remember you can set one that is stacked from a folder selected from gallery. Long press screen > add widget > gallery or photo frame.

Yeah I have tried the stock photo gallery widget, but it does not do timed transitions through the pictures. I have to swipe down on the widget to see a new picture each time
edit: found a pretty good replacement, wont let you pick specific pictures but does change pictures in set intervals

Is anyone else having trouble taking screenshots? Whenever I do it successfully shows that the screenshot is taken and I can view it in my gallery, but whenever I try to share it, it's just a black image. Does this have to do with the screen settings or something? Also if I take a screenshot and try to open it with an app such as Pixlr, it shows the image but it is like distorted with a grid array of black squares. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

What app are you using to share the image?

I was using the default app with the phone. I also tried using Pixlr and it does the same thing. Like when I try to see the image in my gallery at first it is black on the preview, then when I actually press it to open it it shows the image. When I back out, it is back black again. The screen like flickers as well on certain images, I am assuming because of the adaptive display? I tried taking a few more screenshots last night and it seemed to work, and then a few hours later it went back to showing black images.

No, what I mean is when you click the "share icon", which app do you use to share the images? For example, do you share using Gmail, Pushbullet, Hangouts, etc.? Also have you tried turning off Adaptive Display? That shouldn't be the issue but you never know.

Ah, I was using Kik or directly through text messaging. Like even in my gallery the screenshots show up as black, unless I click on the image than it loads. I have the screen on Basic right now and its still doing it. Its weird as I tried doing a few last night and it began to work normally, and now its doing the black image thing again.

I have the same exact problem with the Verizon version. Screenshots turn very dark and get diagonal lines. If I use Photos to view them, they're just black with diagonal lines. Then when I text these images, the recipients get black images too. I've factory reset the phone, and that fixed it... until I started downloading my apps and Samsung updates. I'm not sure which app creates this issue, but it'd be tough to hunt down the culprit one by one. (I have over 350 apps).
To take a screenshot it's the volume up button and the start key. May it helps you some.

what is the "start key"?
I also faced similar problem like u few months ago, when I took screenshot some times it show in gallery and sometimes a black image with no thumbnail error come, dis was because of low memory, so try to free up some internal and SD memory, use clean master to clear to cache memory, or clean files manually.

I'm sure you're being sarcastic. To most, it's commonly referred to as the 'Home' button. On later Touchwiz devices, you can just swipe your palm horizontally across the screen to capture a screenshot.
I dont know what device you are using, but on the t mobile s6 edge, volume up and the home button do NOT take a screenshot

Works just fine for me.
LOCK button and home button, not volume button.
Press them both at the exact same time and hold them until you see the snapshot.

It was Vol Up + Power button on other devices like Nexus, pure Android. And CM roms.
But Samsung has always been Power Button + Home Button.

settings/apps/(select whichever gallery app you use currently/app settings/set as default/ tap this then tap "clear defaults". Launch your gallery app and give it permissions to be the default

That didn't work, the camera app just goes into its own gallery.

You can't change what the camera app opens to. That's fixed in the app itself.

Thanks so much for the help, @joeldf and @Youdoofus. I was wondering if this is possible with root access. I'm trying to do the same thing on my OP8T to change the shortcut inside Camera to go to Google Photos. Perhaps there's a way to 'redirect' all attempts to open Gallery?
