[Q] Multiview support? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can you do multiview on all apps on the note 2 or only selected apps can be used on multi view?

All apps... if you can flash the mod... need to be rooted or have custom rom
handwritten from my note 2 (N7100)

It is a selected few at present but the list is getting longer day by day. greader is now available on the multi-screen bar as is LectureNotes. My guess is that more and more will soon be available. Wether or not Google or Samsung allow competing apps ie other browsers than Chrome in the future is anyones guess.
My phone is not rooted.

Has anyone even gotten the Official 4.3 update yet?

Like the title says, has anyone gotten it yet or did Android central just assume because the leaked Samsung time line for 4.3 updates had proven on 2 other devices that it was correct? All the videos I've seen on TV 4.3 on a note 2 are kind of lame.
The main points to the upgrade are
- sound and photo in camera
- s4 style settings menu
- knox (which might void your warranty)
- a couple new icons
- new gpu driver (6% boost I think)
- daydreams
- lockscreen widgets.
Things were not getting
- S4 weather widget
- ANY note 3 features (air command..)
Any thoughts?

While I have not received any update
I wonder if the update was pulled. Sprint changed their site today and no longer indicate the availability of the 4.3 update

I haven't received it and when I am notified, I will not be taking it. I like having root and I want nothing to do with KNOX so I will be waiting until the guys over in development get some ROMs going and with that will come at least some of the features not included with stock. For now, just forget about it and go on with daily life. I know that seems stupid, but it makes the time it takes to actually get the update you want go much faster.
From what I can tell on Sprint's site, they probably changed it because people were calling in like crazy wondering where their update was when it is being rolled out in waves and maybe not at all yet. It WILL come soon though and there will be all kinds of fun to be had with the new software I am sure.

Found this on Google by searching "samsung stock calendar app"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.concentriclivers.calendar&hl=en
Does that work? The dev note says it won't be updated anymore but it looks like the stock 4.1 calendar.
I had to take off kitkat because of that plus not many uses for s-pen, and instead I just installed 4.3 DN3 Ditto Note 3. It's the best ROM I've found so far and it has Note 3 features and it's Samsung account friendly. What's a Note II without the S-pen, I even have a Note 8.0 and I sync calendars through Samsung account.
I did have to update the bootloader to 4.3 before flashing the ROM.

Action memo from the note 3 on my note 8?

Is there anyway to get and apk for the Action Memo from the Note 3 installed on my Note 8.0....I love the widget on my Note 3 and use it all the time...
anyone have the apk?
That would be nice, trying to remember if I saw it in the Samsung app store.

Now which note are you transfering to?
Your title states Note 8, yet you ask Note 8.0... they are two diff devices, with two diff Androids.
I see a few Note 8 guys are messing up our forum threads with Note 8 questions.
Action memo was never introduced to Kitkat on the Note 8.0.
There are a few action memos plucked from Kitkat versions of phones and ported, but have odd formatting without using framework app settings.
You can modify your build prop to reflect the Kitkat tab and clear your Samsung apps data and cache to use Galaxy Apps to download a copy. Can't say if it will work or format properly to our screen dpi. I did do one update from Samsung so my Action menu is a bit newer than the ones floating around the S2 note II threads.

[Q] Galaxy Note II Emojis

Good day.
So, I have a Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100). It is not locked to any operator and it has stock Android 4.3 installed via Kies a few days ago. I heard that there should be support for emojis in this Android version. My gf has a Galaxy S4 with Android 4.3 and she has the iWnn keyboard with all the colored emojis. When I try to find that keyboard on my Note II I can't. There is no keyb with that name. I can see some emojis in apps and messages but no color and no posibility to type emoji without using Google keyboard (installed as an APK). The Google keyboard has only a few emojis.
How come everyone else with a Note II has this iWnn keyboard installed but not my phone? If it was locket to an operator I would understand, but since it's bought not locked to an operator I don't. Could anyone help me with this?
And also, how come the S4 range has the colored emojis and not the Note II/other models? Isn't the version of Android the same?

S4 is newer than Note 2 after all. (And both phones aren't stock android after all) so Samsung can still stuff new stuff into the s4, so download a third party keyboard (I use go keyboard) or grab the apk from your girlfriend's phone and hope it works on your note 2.
Smack that thanks button If I helped!
Always make a nandroid backup before trying anything risky

Well, I didn't have time for that, however I will try it some day. Thanks to all for the tip.
Instead I got myself a SM-N9005 (Note 3). And, if possible, I love this more than the Note 2! :cyclops:

Is this for me

Im the current owner of a s6 and iphone 6. The iphone is my main phone, i use the s6 as a tablet at home only (no data on it so only wifi).
I like to multitask. My typical day would be switching between apps (messenger, youtube, browser, es file explorer, email, and notepad)
Problem is i can only have to working windows open at once and switching appa activates the S6 ram mangement bug (closes background apps)
I know the note 12 can do 4 windows, but id like to stick to a mangeable size like a Tab S 8.4 or smaller
Can the tab s do 4 windows at once? Or am i stuck having to get a note 12?
It looks like it can do two open at once, but multiple windows in the background open, one of the multi-windows videos mentions an hack to have more than 2 windows open at once, but since i dont use multi-windows i dont know if this is what you want.

There is a hack available to enable 4 way multiwindows on the tab s.
Also many of the custom roms already have it enabled.

Not sure but could probably be ported seeing as the tab s hack was ported from the tab pro.
