First of all I can't seem to find how to insert a picture from my clipboard on here right now... so that's the first question. How do I attach something from my clipboard on the xda app? Second, when I use my spen to draw around something to add it to my clipboard I don't see the option. I can share it with scrapbook and many other apps but how do I just send it directly to my clipboard and then be able to share something from my clipboard on here?

The clipboard's really more for traditional "cut/copy/paste," not for managing content. That's why you'll never see clipboard as a share to or from option. Most of the stuff you clip using S Pen ends up in the Gallery. For example, a screen capture pops up a menu at the top after it's captured. If you select the "check" in the upper right corner it's automatically sent to the Gallery. You can also select "share" and you'll be given a list of places and apps it can be sent. Clipboard's great if you're amassing content by category but it's not great as a means for storing a single clip of something with the intent of sending it somewhere else.

If you pick the share option and send it somewhere you can discard what you've created without saving it. Whether you realize it or not every time you copy something while the keyboard's active it's accumulating in your clipboard. If you check it and have never emptied it I'll bet you have dozens of historical clips you've made in it. The default is pretty much "save" across the board when you're creating something unless there's a cancel or discard option presented.

I am wondering if anyone has figured out how to tag people in pictures from your WP7 device before uploading to Facebook.
AND...How to upload video to Facebook from phone from album.
Thanks
Can't upload video yet, well by default. I am unsure if an app exists to help with this. Currently I have to use Zune on the PC to work with my videos.
Tagging, not sure, seems like that is a browser enhanced feature that would use silverlight, flash or js that the newest internet explorer doesn't seem to recognize.
Pretty sure you can just tap the image you are uploading to tag it. I did it on accident and I think that was how. It might have been within the actual Facebook app. Idk

That didnt work...Cant figure it out but will keep trying.
Tagging is done by either long pressing or double tapping, can't remember but I've done it before, too lazy to try now.
Make sure you're doing it in the dialogue just before actually uploading the pic, the one where you name it and such.

Tagging can be done using the fb app for the Wp7. Tap and hold for about 3 seconds on the face that u wanted to tag, then ur fb friends list would pop out. This of course is applicable to photos which have already been uploaded.

It also has a weird behavior... From my experience you need to tap for three seconds, and then let go for the name list to show itself... I thought it should have popped up regardless...

Didnt work on the focus.
Also, no go with the other recommended method.
I was able to tag photos (really hadn't tried before).
1. open the facebook app
2. click on the photo you want to tag (already has to be uploaded to facebook)
3. In the photo view, long press on the picture, you should see the bottom menu drop off, then your contacts pop up and you can click who you want to tag it to.
I'm a developer and I want to develop my first official market app. I've developed a couple of applications but just for personal use and experience. I have gathered a group of very talented developers and we are onto something big.
What would be an app that you would like to see developed? The app (or apps) with the most popular demand will get started on immediately.
We've been considering a couple of ideas. Anyone down for Airplay for android? tun tun tuuuuun..or maybe not. Maybe a crazy cross platform game?
We are open to suggestions.

This is an easy one
Develop and apk that fully integrates your Contacts with your Calendar. So if I want to schedule an appointment with John I just go to is contact record and select "make appointment". It then creates a link between John and the Calendar for that appointment. So if you are looking at the appointment you can easily call John, navigate to using address or add notes to his record.

Thats not a bad idea. I understand where you are coming from. It would actually come in handy. It would have to be an extension to the original android operating system. Unless I were to make an entire new contact app that would integrate these features easily.
Towards the end you say "..looking at the appointment you can easily..."
do you want to be able to just click his address from the calendar and open up navigator?
I'm too lazy to pick up the books and relearn what all I need to know, but, I've had this idea tossing around in my head for awhile.
Make an app to basically create a data set and determine your battery estimated maH, and if you need to recallibrate it. Once you have all that data, there are tons of things you can do with it as well, its just a matter of making the program light weight enough to run in the background so it doesn't re-do calculations and eat up juice.

The concept is so that you can create an appointment for a contact in your calendar that is linked between the contact and the calendar.
For instance, when I make an appointment with Joe, Joe's information such as his phone number and address are instantly accessible from the calendar. That way if I need navigation to Joe's address I can access it directly from the appointment without having to manually type it into the calendar program.
These links could also easily allow me to say "show me all appointments for Joe". Or if I am on way to Joe's and running late I can call or text Joe from the appointment record instead of having to look it up.
The idea is to automate and reduce duplication of effort. Never type the same information twice - link to it instead. There is an app called "Contact Event" that comes close to doing this the but it doesn't actually create a link, it just pastes contact data automatically into the calendar record when creating it. The difference would be the link which would make it a relational database concept as opposed to just cut and paste.
When creating a new contact your app should also generate a Primary Key that uniquely identifies that contact. Then when you make an appointment for that contact, you simply drop their Primary Key into the appointment record, link the two tables and you are done.

Interesting...I'm gonna check Contact and Event and see what it's like, I would just have to beef it up a little bit. I will get back to you one this but I like the idea.
An app that lets you add on to the existing code to your liking.
Or a series of apps, a basic twitter client, a home launcher, a clock widget. Something easy we could build on *from the phone* without the use of Eclipse. If that's at all possible.
We now have Stericson's Signapktic app that allows us to sign zips, apks, and jar file from our phone so we're slowly getting closer to something like that.
Stericson's apps are pretty awesome.
How about and app that lets you dynamically re-arrange your homescreens without havin to drag icons around?
You can do this in the MIUI Rom but I hate the apple-like interface so I dont use that rom.

One thing I'm have an issue with is multiple contacts for one person on the GS3. I've tried combining the contacts and it works to a point. Here's what I like to do:
1. Combine my contacts and have them use the Facebook photo for the contact. How do I change it so it doesn't default to a pic I had setup as the Google contact?
2. Why do contacts keep getting so distorted after a wipe and reinstall?
3. How do I get the contact pics top take up the entire pic area when in call instead a small pic?
4. Is there a faster way to combine contacts?
Thanks for the help

First I think there's a rule about bumping your own threads within a certain timeframe... so might want to watch that
As to the questions:
1) When your in a contact, press MENU, then "Mark as Default", this will let you choose the default picture, call number,etc... if you're facebook account is linked to this contact that will be one of the pictures at the top. (Now if the pic's aren't being pulled from facebook, that's a whole other issue, and you'll need a 3rd party app to do that it seems)
2) Distorted?? What do you mean exactly? Pictures lowering resolution? or something else.
3)When I'm in a call the picture takes up the top half of the screen.. which is the pic area... are you saying some of your pics do NOT take up that entire half space? Or that you want the pic to take up the entire SCREEN? If it's the former, my guess is it has to do with your picture resolution... try using bigger pictures? (Mine are approx 452x604 resolution , originally used on my Evo 4G).
4) Faster.. nope Clicky Clicky Clicky. I did mine during an episode of America's got Talent. Also be warned, the stock ROM has a limit of combining 5 contacts as a maximum. Custom ROMs can override this, and if you're rooted, there is a file you can edit yourself to increase the amount you can join (No flashing needed, just one text file edit, the feature.xml file in system/etc)

1. Set as default worked great!
2. Pics have a really low resolution. Not sire if it has something to do with pics being possible restored from a back up or something??
3. I usually have to go in an reassign the pics in order for them to be larger. Again I think this has to do with them coming from a backup pic associated with the contact.
4. Yeah, I know. I'm gonna edit the XML file now.
Higher Resolution Pics
The resolution of the Facebook Contact pics suck. Anyway to bring the pics in a higher resolution?

Hello,
In the next couple of months I'll be on the road a lot conducting interviews with over 100 people. One thing I like to do is keep a picture of the people I interview so I can better recall that particular interview. So I'm searching for an app for the Nexus 7 that will allow a person to take a picture on my Nexus 7 and there be immediate contact information they can fill out like, Name, school, date, etc... Does anyone know of any particular app that can do this?
Thanks
The stock app "people" allows you to take a picture when adding a new contact. Just open up the app, tap new contact button and tap the photo area. After, all the rest can be filled in.

After days of research I still have not found the answer that I am looking for. My old note 10.1 tablet was used extensively for school. I keep my textbooks and notes on it. The digitizer died so I upgraded to a 2014 edition. I am very upset over the loss of functionality with this tablet. When I lasso something I get the option to copy it to scrapbook and a whole bunch of other programs but not the clip board or gallery. I can copy it to lecture notes but it is done in a very clunky way. With my old note tablet I would simply lasso something like an equation in a text book and I would then wait about 5 seconds and the picture would disappear and automatically be save to clipboard. I then switched back to lecture notes and I would click the menu and select Import image and then choose gallery and my lassoed image would be right there. I simply selected it, change the size how I needed it and clicked the little check mark. Done.
With the new note there is no way to save to clipboard. My only other option is to upload it to a program like photos, Picasa, drive, and so on. I should not need an internet connection to upload something to what is basically being used as a clipboard. How do I get this feature back? Do I need to root? Can I reinstall the old note program or settings? Of course samsung says that it can't be done but I find that hard to believe since the older tablet did it just fine. Any help is appreciated.
Does lecture notes not appear in the list of programs you can send the selection to? Maybe you can ask the developer to help, as ever note, one note, snote etc are all there. Much easier than copying to clipboard and then importing.
By the way, once you send it to a program, it does get copied to the clipboard automatically. You can paste it if you are using the Samsung keyboard.

Yes it does, but the issue is that when I select it, it wants to open it in a new notebook or open a existing notebook and then insert it at the beginning of the notebook. If I am in a class where I have taken lots of notes then I have to drag the inserted image to the bottom of the page, use the volume buttons to move the page down, then drag again, move page, again and again for however many pages of notes I have. The way it used to work was I lassoed something, copied to clipboard, went back to lecture notes where I had just left it, insert image and confirm. It has changed from about a 10 second process to 30 seconds or more for a single image. At this point I would be happy with removing the new snote and spen settings from both my note 4 and note 10.1 2014 and putting the old snote/spen settings back in to get this functionality back. It's just stupid that clipboard is not an option. And the ONLY reason that it seems it isn't is because Samsung wants us to use it's apps, which it has already shown that it won't support from version to version. I used to use snote for all of this but when I upgraded my phone my old tablet and the new phone would no longer sync. So I upgraded the tablet too and now wish I hadn't. The moment another company comes out with a comparable product with native stylus support, I am done with Samsung.
Yeah, It's annoying that there is no copy to clipboard option. I also use it for notes and I multiwindow a PDF reader with Lecture notes. The lecture notes option in the lasso kills the multiwindow and, as you said, it works weirdly.
The solution I found: Select whatever you want to copy with the lasso. In the apps selection bar, select the Bluetooth option (with Bluetooth off). If you see at the bottom. Of the screen, a little white rectangle will say 'Copied to clipboard'. Then a popup will appear saying: 'You need to enable bluetooth' Click Cancel and wohala!!
Paste it as you know.
I actually posted this in a conversation with acadroid, Lecturenotes creator, somewhere.
Edit: Here, better explained with images:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59873552&postcount=30
Tell me if it works..
It does seem to copy to a "non standard" clip board. Thanks for the tip. I also noticed that after trying this that if I select lecture note from the menu it is not trying to open a new note book now. It seems to try to insert the picture where I last was in lecture notes. Not sure why the change. I think I can make it work. I think the failure here is mostly not being able to copy straight to a clip board or the gallery but that is more on samsung than lecture notes. And lector notes is one hell of a step up from snote. Thanks for the tips everyone.
@sendeth: I am not sure whether this helps, but LectureNotes has an open `import image in open notebook´ in the app's import settings. If you enable this option, any image which is opened with LectureNotes or shared to LectureNotes gets directly imported (or, more precisely, placed for import) into the currently open notebook.
You might want to wait for the lollipop upgrade, or do it if you already have it available. It has the smart clip feature from Note 4, which let's you grab screen clips and keep them in a floating tray onscreen, then paste into whichever application you want. I use it all the time on the edge, and it works pretty well. Haven't tried with LN though.
