Hi guys,
When I use two apps side-by-side, say Youtube and Skype, and I click on a friend's YT link, Skype disappears. I want to watch videos in YT above the Skype window, instead of having to pair the apps in multi-window mode all over again. In other words, I want links to open in the other app while staying side-by-side.This was possible on my Galaxy Note 10.1, so I wonder why it's not working here and if there's something that I need to do.
Thanks~
You may need to drag YouTube from the multi window launcher and place it above Skype before clicking on the yt link.

My Tab Pro 10.1 only allows two windows in multi-window mode, so I can't fully test this scenario. However, in Settings/Device/Multi window, there is an option to open in multi window view.
Once I checked that, then I opened the USA Today app alongside my browser. I then clicked on a link in the USA Today app, and it opened in the browser that is next to it.

That is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks so much. For some reason, I overlooked that... xD

Have it also in Portugal. Very nice App. Just point the camera on the computers desktop and it copies the file from there to the device. Even can upload files directly from the phone to the desktop.
Very easy to transfer a file with this.
apk please?
does it use bluetooth/wifi?
This sounds awesome. Wonder why no Canada, buggers. Please someone get us the .apk
Can't find it.

This is one cool app, i'm currently showing it off to my officemates
apk please! its not on my bell i9000m here in canada. thanks
Available in Australia. Installed. Now it wants me to install it on my pc as well. Transferring to PC. It will use WiFi. But still cool alternative to WiFiExplorer.
Installed. Works great. Cool Intelligent app. Transferred 83mb video from laptop to galaxy in less than 3mins. Transferred a photo from galaxy to laptop in 1 sec.
Samsung does look aftr the Galaxy users.
I got it a day after I went from Eclair to Froyo so I assume 2.2 only. It uses wifi wo should be fast but I can't get it to work.
Says unsupported appliation
I don't use IE though.
Doesn't support URLs from Google Chrome. Also, no option to send a pdf file from galaxy to laptop. Can only send image/audio/video from galaxy to laptop. So, there is room for improvement.

Nope.. It works on 2.1 as well I am still on stock JG4 and it still works
Available in Sri lanka and not in India. Now this isn't cool.
But surely it isn't that hard to upload the APK somewhere and throw that link here?
Not showing on my I9000XXJPO.

chrome to phone
check out chrometophone-android-v1.7.apk or Chrome to Phone 2.1 [can't post url]
you can find it in the android market or google search
there is an addon for Chrome and Firefox, you can send links, files, text to your phone, you need a google account

Not that i know.
Yeah, not that I know of either. I've got it to open Pop up browser when I click an email link by default, so you can just do that to get the window open? Not ideal, it'll still do it though.
I would love to know this as well.
I want to set Chrome as the default application, but then if I'm in an app I would want to use the Pop Up Browser. As of right now, every time I click a link and I want to use Chrome it just makes me click again and again and again.... and again.... for each "hand off" for the browser! Arg, so annoying. The things I do to keep the Pop Up Browser option out there!
I use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.benhirashima.choosebrowser
When you want to use the popup browser, just hit the share button and select they app and you'll get a list of all your browsers, including the pop up one.
Easiest way that I've found.

Hey what's up guys. Not sure if this has already been discussed but I was wondering if there was a way to activate the pop up browser without actually clicking on link. As many of you know we are somewhat limited on the applications we can use in split screen mode. But I noticed if I already have pop up browser open I am able to navigate to almost any application on the phone. It would be great to quickly look something up while already in a game or in an app that does not support multi window.
Any ideas?

Yes, I downloaded this and I'm positive it is exactly what you are looking for. It DOES work on my t-mo GN2 without a problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1972869
here is a news post about it as well. http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...er-without-clicking-links-on-the-galaxy-note/
it is in pure apk form(simple dl and install) and will create an app. You could launch it without clicking any links, just like you would launch the stock browser.
I am 99% that is the one i downloaded and it works perfect for me
If I understood you correctly and this is what you're looking for, hit the thanks button if i I helped you out. Gl
Although I prefer other keyboards on my Note 10.1, I'm sorta "stuck" with the preinstalled Samsung keyboard because of it's very decent handwriting-to-text capabilities.
Does anyone know of equally good apps which allow H-to-T, even better if it's possible to recognize handwriting from saved notes?
Any other good keyboards which have H-to-T? I've tried Swype, but it's not as good as Samsung's...
Thanks for your input!
I've been wondering this myself but I learned to love the sammy H-to-T even on AOSP roms on my Original Note I717, and having the Note 10.1 just makes this keyboard better. Now that feature you mentioned about recognizing text from notes, now that would be sexy...if you know what I mean.
Try 7notes available on Google play, you can use the inbuilt app to write notes in your handwriting and convert later or can do on the fly conversions with any app that allows keyboard entry. The recognition is the best I have seen on any app to date.
Another app you can try is notes mobile, currently only available from the Samsung app market which also allows you to take notes and convert later.

I'll take a look at 7notes, thanks! But I can't find "notes mobile" on the Samsung Apps page. Who's the maker, or if you can just send the link?
Thanks!!

Thanks! I actually found it searching the forum here! It is really good at what it does!
There are 3-4 different note taking apps out there which have something particular about them that make them special, and things that you hate. I wish someone would make one that had it all!
Thanks again!
used a Note II for over a year now
just upgraded today to the note 3, to discover that in the S Note app, when you create a new note, THERE"S NO PREVIEW!!!
before on the note 2, when you open the app, there's a grid style listing of all your notes, each one with a preview of its contents!
Very useful when you have almost a hundred notes!
I imported everything using my Samsung account, and EVERY note on the new note 3 phone has a "cover" over the notes!! no previews!
so when i open the app, im greeted by TONS of blue (or whatever color) boxes, making it nearly IMPOSSIBLE to find the note im looking for!
are there any other users out there that HEAVILY use the S-Note app that understand my frustration???
Searching Google is pointless... and i swear ive been thru EVERY setting trying to figure it out...
why would they CHANGE THIS???!?!
anyone know how to get the previews back??
I found that if i go into EACH note, I can create a preview, and have to re size a preview box, but that would take hours for all my notes, and still doesn't solve the problem of new notes defaulting to having a preview for the "cover"
I know there's that drag down thing to see a preview.. but once again, this defeats the purpose.. its gone from a super useful app, to not usable at all!!
I need to see a list / grid of previews when opening app up!
HELP!!!
any advice appreciated!
FYI im not looking for alternative apps - so I don't need suggestions to "stop using" Snote I know its a semi-crappy app.. but REALLY>>>?? common samsung!!!

Use the S-pen and hover over them. It's not the best, but it works for me. don't think there's any settings to fix the app itself. Hope I helped.

yea.. its not ideal, but thanks! I turned airview back on, and it least i can see something. thanks for the help!
I know I hope someone finds a way to fix it entirely! It's a shame when they have something great in previous devices but goof up in the newer ones. Let's just be patient, I bet a lot of people agree with this issue! I just saw no one was replying and I'd just give you an option

This, along with losing text reflow in the stock browse, are two VERY big Note 3 letdowns.
