I think it would be extremely handy if you could put a widget the size of the whole screen and take your stylus out and then write a quick note right on the widget without opening an app is that possible? I haven't seen any apps in the market or figured out how I could do this with s note.
Settings -> s pen -> open pop up note ?

Pop up note isnt a widget though. Id like an app that allows you to write directly on a widget so that you can write a quick note on your home screen and you will see it as soon as you look at yout phone again. Basically like a simple reminder. Id be willing to pay for an app that allowed it but im just not sure if adroid will even allow a widget to basically be "updated" in such a way.
Ah. I read the intent as having something immediately when pulling the pen, not that it had to stay saved on screen in a widget.
As widgets can be interactive, it shouldn't be that hard for a edit toggle on a note widget. Maybe I'll play around with writing one.

Im looking for an app that I can use to take notes while i am in a call. I use my Voicmail a lot and need to write down a dozen or so calls throughout the day. Looking for something that can easily switch between the dialer and the note page as I need to write a note go back in to press delete then go to next message then write a note...on and on and on.Does anyone know of such an app?
Have you tried evernote? It's very handy and syncs with the cloud so the notes are accessible anywhere.

Have a look at Quill on the market, it's a pen taking app, use a stylus or your finger, you can save as a pdf or pic, might be something you would like. If you don't want to type of course.

Hovernote might work for you. It's actually an overlay application that will just sit on top of the dialer, or anything else, and lets you type into it and save as a text file.
Personally I like Papyrus. Works great for taking notes. Not sure if that is what you are looking for though.

I use Papyrus Ex, it's sort of like Papyrus except it doesn't request permissions to take over your whole phone and sniff all your contacts, all it asks for is read and write to SD card. You can change where it stores too, good for when you flash roms or backup, that way you don't lose your notes.
Try Colornote
S note that comes with s3... you can use your finger or stylus to write on pages

Fit planner is a cool planner/note app I have been using which basically gives you a fresh sheet each day to jot on... a new update is coming out which has option to launch when spen is removed. May be great for not TW roms and still have popup style note taking

Do you have a link? I don't see any such app in the Play store, nor is a Google search returning anything.

The new update is up on the play store.. launches on spen eject and closes when you return it just like popup note. Has changeable background and a fresh page with date each day.. great as a journal.. log or just for notes. I am not affiliated with the developer at all I just think its a nice simple app that works well. Check it out

Thanks for the heads up just bought it. Looking forward to trying it out!
Bought it, hate it. No reminders make this app basically pointless. You could open up any note taking app and do the same thing. The buitt in calendar is way better.

thanks man, I just go the phone today, coming from a note 1, so its a whole new ballgame!
My like of it is simply for a popup snote replacement and daily organized note or journal... not intended to set reminders or appointment. That is not what it is for.

Stock Note 2.. up to date..
for some reason I cannot find my email Icon. I just started a new job and we have to use exchange. I set up the email account via Sync accounts..
Now here is the kicker.. I cannot find the EMAIL icon in any grid to place it on my home screen. I looked into Settings... App Manger.. All and there is an icon there for it. .But for the life of me I cannot find it anywhere to add it to my home screen for easy access..
Anyone know how to magically make the icon reappear on my phone with out having to do a wipe?

I assume you are on the TW stock launcher? If so, try this: touch and hold empty space on home screen... select "Apps and widgets".... under Apps tab, select "Email". There's also an Email widget on the Widgets tab
The widget works.. but I am just looking for the email Icon.. I cannot find that little guy any where..
Is it hidden or disabled

Go to your app drawer then tap your menu soft key. The show hidden apps is at the bottom of the list.
There are no apps currently hidden... it never showed up in the app drawer this way. ..

If you can set up your email and you have a widget that works I sure do not see how you could have lost your email icon. Did you tuck it away in a folder? Post screen shots of all your app drawer pages if you do not mind.
Here you go.

That is weird. The only odd thing I noticed was that you have two gallery icons. The only thing that looks like email appears to be Microsoft's icon. Are you running any icon packs.
Everything is stock. ..no packs what so ever.

If you're rooted, go to /system/app folder and see if you have "SecEmail.apk" or "SecExchange.apk". If you do, you can try reinstalling the apks. If not, you need them. Easy to root if you're not.
Not rooted.... still can't figure it out. .. The icon does show up for ways to share attschments etc. ..
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
Install a file explorer that will allow you to get to /system/apps then tap on your SecEmail.apk, you will have to enable unknown sources, it should try to install the email apk. I do not know for sure if it will install or not and it may not even help. Reset your security setting for unknown sources if you want afterwards if you like. I have heard that some Samsung apks cannot be installed after initial boot.
It starts the install...but it does not complete it. I have astro by the way.

so i've seem to be having trouble with the multiwindow. All the wrong apps are in the multiwindow tray and when i try to drag a certain app i want to use in multiwindow mode from the 'edit page with all the rest of the apps' the app is wrong.
for example 'whatsapp' the messenger app isn't in the tray on the left. So i press edit to find it along with all other apps in the page that shows up.
I drag 'whatsapp' over to the left multiwindow bar and it turns out to be another app like calculator and when i look at the edit page again whatsapp is there and changed position. and this is the same with most of my apps in that page. no app is their actual app.
anyone else having this problem?

Does it use multiwindow control if so there is a delete services data and that is there to fix that

Apparently it is possible to write directly on the S Planner month view with the S Pen while in landscape mode on the Note 10.1. But I can't find this function in the Note 8. Is there a way to enable this, or is this only possible on the Note 10.1? Is there another app that allows this? Preferable with a month view widget that shows the s pen marks?

I just poked around a bit, and got a dialog telling me I can jot on the planner but only in portrait view.
I was able to scribble on it in portrait view, though
Thanks. I was able to make it work in portrait mode. Too bad the scribbles don't show on the monthly view widget. That's what I was hoping for...

I don't have a Note 10.1, but I'm guessing it doesn't. It seems they just changed the same option from landscape only to portrait only. It would have been a cool feature. But without that, I have no reason at all to not switch to Nova. The potential for using the S Planner was the only thing holding me back. I don't use any of the Samsung apps, and I like Nova way better than Touchwiz, Lecture Notes better than S notes, Google Now/search WAY better than S Voice, and I'm sure I will find a better calendar too. I'm trying two now that has a monthly calendar widget. One of them supports the S Pen hover too, so maybe in time they will add more features.

It's called aCalendar+. Only the paid version supports hover I believe. But we got $25 free Google Play bucks to spend, so I'm trying it.
