SideSync 3.0 and Note 3 - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been using the 8.4 for a few days now and while I really enjoy the SideSync feature to sync up my Note 3 phone when it's not on hand, I haven't been able to open a keyboard to actually type anything, respond to a text message etc.
I was wondering if there is anyway to activate a keyboard.
Thanks!

My keyboard auto pops up.

Same here, but I can't get mine to connect without launching the phone app each time

I have to launch the app each time too.

Does your battery on your note 3 not like just drop like a rock? Seems for me when it is connected by wifi direct it just drops like a rock.

I found the solution. I installed a S5 keyboard on my note 3 and it worked after that. I'm running Effortless rom on my t-mobile note 3, that's where I got the keyboard linked below.

Thanks! Working great now. Last question - is it possible for me to install a zip file without having a rooted phone? My note 3 isn't rooted.

To install that particular zip, you need root. It needs to write that keyboard to the system folder which is only writable if you have root

Grabbed the zip and flashed it. But now my Samsung Keyboard isn't working at all - I'm getting a force close whenever it's set as the default.

So has anyone solved this problem of having to launch the app on the phone each time? It'd be much more useful if we can keep the app running on the phone so we don't actually have to physically get the phone in order to use it.

I saw in the ads that we can answer/make calls from sidesync... but when i tried it won't allowed me.. is it just me?

I was told by a samsung sales guy in Best Buy, that for now, only the S5 phone can be used for calls in the ablet in sidesync.

[Q] Where is the S Pen Keeper Settings in Note 8.0?

Hell everyone,
My first time here. Just bought a Galaxy Note 8.0 and my friend who owns a Note 2 says her phone has a cool S Pen Keeper function.
I couldn't find the "Keeper" setting in my S Pen settings although both my Note 8 and her Note 2 show Android 4.1.2.

Only thing I know of is "SPen" under system in settings. This is on 4.2.2. What type of things are they able to do that you want also?
to detect if spen is away

My Note 8 came with 4.2.2, I have no options for s-pen keeper when it's docked or not. Is it supposed to be on all the time?

Mine Note 8.0 doesn't have s-pen keeper feature either.
Nevertheless there is an app for this. Simply search for "spenkeeper" on the Play Market.

Thanks for letting us know there is an app. I got it and it seems to work fine. The screen does have to be off before it detects the motion, that's actually a positive, it would be annoying to set off the alarm if you were working and moved the tablet.

My Note 8 that came with 4.2.2 doesn't have S Pen Keeper as far as I can tell. Try intalling the app from the Play Store, it works.

as I understand the Keeper app, app notices pen is out.
when screen times out and pen still out you get notified.
you need a non-zero delay time. that says "your pen is out and idle for { delay time } " and screen timeout
then you get the alarm
just my experience, not expert knowledge

[Q] build.prop change N2 to N3 without black screen possible?

Long story short I have a Note 2. ROM to JB 4.3. Changed the model in build.prop to SN-N900 and then got the black screen of death on reboot. Did an adb shell and pushed the old build.prop and got it working again. Does anyone know what I may have missed doing so that the phone will work after that change? Trying to get the Gear Manager app by doing the model change in build.prop
Many thanks in advance.

Does the Gear app actually work on even a rooted stock ROM...NVM AOSP?
I don't know offhand...but I'd be terribly surprised if it worked any differently than AllShare, in that even rooting your device breaks it.

I do have the app installed, however unlike your image the x/18 installation does not occur. It shows it and then goes away showing just the nfc connection screen. Any thoughts on making this function? I have paranoid android 3.9 rom, jellybean 4.3.
The watch is found by Bluetooth and they connect but then disconnect because I get a, "device unsupported" error.
Cheers!

You're probably SOL outside of a stock unrooted ROM that officially supports the device. Sounds like Samsung indeed coded it like AllShare etc.

You are probably right, but I keep hoping. I was able tonchange the build.prop file to the Note 3 model SM-N9005. I thought that would help, but no.

Battlefield 4 Commander App broken?

I can't get it to load into any servers on my new 8.4. The app will load and I can select a server but then it just hangs at a black screen forever. I've tried letting it pick servers and I've selected a server through Battlelog and get the same result either way. I've tried on different wifi networks too so it isn't a network issue. Anyone else run into this or am I the only loser wasting time playing Commander at work lol

It doesn't work for me either, it's a tablet specific issue for us, as it works just fine on my Nexus 5.
I sit at the black screen too, I think it may be a resolution issue but I'm not 100%, the thread with the apk on here explains a bit more on how to fix the black screen issue but it's for phones running, but I assume it would work for our tablet as well but I'm not running a rom so no Xposed framework to edit the obb.

Thanks.

I was able to pull the APK off a display phone, couldn't get it to install on an S7E though. Maybe I'm just dumb, but there's that so good luck.

Damn sorry. I just looked online and read you can do it with no root using es so I tried it. If you let me know how I can try again.
I'm waiting for this too.
I can get it later today, just let me know how to.As long as it can be done without root I'll find a way,
Here you go

I am assuming there is no way to do this without root access. You probably have to replace the AOD folder with this in the Priv-App folder. ES can't get there without root access, either.
Speaking of ES...how the mighty have fallen. That program is trash now.

well I tried pushing it to my S7, and it does not work as is.
Doesnt s7 have it already? I went to a store yesterday to see how s7e feels in hand so i would get a feeling of how the n7 would feel. I know they aint the same but close enough. Anyway, that store model had an AOD where i could select clock syles and calendars.

I would likento know where the Hidden Folder would be for the S-Pen Sounds so I can Change the Sound for when it is removed as well as it being put back.

I'm going to just go assume you'd need root to change the audio files that are most likely located in the system partition.
Do you have the Exynos or Snapdragon variant?
Tried to on the 10+, no joy.
Be nice if there be a Good Lock apk to do this...
It's a new phone.... you're not gonna find a way this soon in the game to do it without some other app. Do they even have root yet for it? Cause those folders you need root to view.

Yea, that was the app I was referring to. Seems decent, just gotta find some good pointers and sounds.
The good thing about Pentastic is you can install it as a standalone, good lock is not required. Pentastic is pretty good fun to use, well worth a try, just to try out new pen removal and insert noises is worth it.
Those looking to add lightsaber sounds to spen, download the lightsaber notification sounds from the zedge and use timbre app to reduce the volume of those files by 50% since they are very loud. 50% less is perfect balance.
I didn't get it on the playstore.. you can down load the apk from other sources.

Everyone is Talking about Good Lock.
What My Original Post was referring to was for being able to change the S-Pen Sounds without having to Install ANY other Apps that eat up Space and Resources.
I wish that by going through the System Files somewhere in Android that the S-Pen Sound Files Can be Found and Replaced for Both taking Out the S-Pen and Inserting the S-Pen.
Hopefully the Sounds are in an MP3 Format and can be Swapped without Any Problems and would stay even after Updates.
