[Q] Notes limited to 10500 Characters - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys,
I have a large text file that I need to work on.
On every phone and tablet I have used I have been able to import the file and view it's content.
However, since using the G3 I have noticed a problem with character limits.
The G3 will not allow text files greater than 10,500 characters to be imported.
Thinking this was an issue with the Notes app I have been using for a number of years I tried installing App after App all with the same consequences. Once you get to 10,500 characters it then stops importing and you can not add any further text despite the keyboard showing you the text being typed.
QuickMemo+ is worse, in that it only allows 10,000 characters but I'm not concerned with this.
What I need to know is why is it I can use any other Android phone or tablet and with a Notes App installed I can then paste the entire contents of my large text file yet the G3 has this 10,500 character limit.
Any takers please?

Thank you for your reply but I don't know about you but if you then save the document and then try to open it again in anything but OfficeSuite it cuts the document down.
Basically OfficeSuite is quite heavyweight for the task of creating a .txt file and security is non existent.
This is why I have been using 'msecure" which makes everything not just password controlled but encrypted as well.
I have tried a great number of Secure Note taking apps and everyone of them cuts out the large file.

No problem, you did not mention originally that you were looking for a secure / encrypted note app.
If i come across something, I will let you know.

Thanks... In the meantime though I'm sure there is an issue with the G3 and character limits.
It's okay on certain apps such as Evernote and OfficeSuite but the secnd it's put into a Note app from Google Play it hits the limit.
Try downloading an app such as 'Pocket' by Tim Clark or 'Secure Notes' by Innorriors and create that same large text file, you'll see there's a character limit issue that's only evident on the G3.

Guys,
I'm pushing this again to see if any of you have an idea what is going wrong with my note character limit.
Since I first started this query I have tried numerous Secure Note Apps (in Google Play type Password Notes) and then tried to add a very large note file. Each and every time I try I get the character limit where I can't add the complete secure note.
If anyone knows of a secure note taking app that will allow large note files to be added please let me know.
Thanks.

So, no one is bothered their G3 has a character limitation!
I managed to gather from a fellow G3 user he too has the exact same problem, thus indicating this IS an issue directly with the G3.
Any Dev want to come forward in a possible answer?

Mike
I have investigated this further and it seems the limitation is built in to the G3. All you can do perhaps is have an indexing system where if the note is over 10,500 you split it into -
eg.
Hyper Frogs Note part 1
Hyper Frogs Note part 2
It seems to only be a limitation on the LG G3.
Can anyone work a solution to this?

Appreciated Gavin.
At least I can rest easier now knowing it's not my actions that have caused this.
Neat trick in splitting the note file, I never thought of doing that. I'll do the transfer later this evening, which will probably end in a file split into 3 or 4.
Definitely better than nothing at all.

[Q] Can I use SketchBook Mobile on my 101 ?

Hi everyone !
I bought a Archos 101 for Christmas, when I bought it, it was because:
- I wanted a big screen to browse the internet. (101 does great)
- I wanted to have a multimedia tablet. (101 does great)
- I wanted to use it to draw. (Here is the problem)
So my wish is to use Sketchbook Mobile on my 101. I bought SBM on my Galaxy S, and I hoped I can use it on my Tablet but I don't find it on the Android Market !
(I used the latest gAppsInstaller).
I tried to take the apk file on my Galaxy S and install it on the tablet, but each time during the loading of the app, it disappear and a window pop up and pop out very fast (I can't read the message).
I tried an other method:
-I did a backup of SBM on my Galaxy S.
-I move the TitaniumBackup folder on my 101.
-I rooted my tablet with the help of this topic.
-I installed TitaniumBackup on my 101.
-I tried to restore.
But there is a message which there is an installation problem..
Someone has an idea ?
Thanks for your answers and sorry for my bad english !
PS: I tried Express version, and it works fine..
Use Titanium Backup to make an unencrypted backup. Then just move the apk file over to the Archos.

What do you want to mean with "unencrypted backup" ? Without the Market link ?
Because when I do a backup, it give me three differents files but not an .apk.
And I ever tried to install the apk I took on my Galaxy with Root Explorer but it didn't work...
Isn't a problem with the license ?
Thanks to you !
Open Titanium Backup and then tap Menu/Preferences. Uncheck Enable encryption.
This will allow you to back up the file as a normal file.
If there is a license then that could be an issue. You would need to find it and copy it also.

I know, it's bad but yesterday I found an .apk file of SBM on internet, so I tried it, and it works !
So I think it's a license problem, where can I found this file ?
Sorry, I'm in noob mode this week
I have the same problem. it's a license problem.
where did you find the apk
You can certainly try, but I think you'll find the screen responsiveness makes drawing more maddening than enjoyable.
I just used this pic in another thread to demonstrate, but it happens to be relevant here too.

Upper portion was drawn slow and delibertately, lower portion was scratched off quickly. The problem is that the Archos doesn't like to register new inputs anywhere near as quickly as it should.

Hi there! so, it means that SBX and SBM are fully working on Archos 101? I was thinking they can be used just with 512mb and archos have just 256...
If so, can you make a video about it? i want to buy this tablet, and it should be one of the best reason to do it...
Thanx in advance!

would there be board properties we could control in the local.prop file to adjust the input sensitivity and delay between "strokes" I get the same issue when i type, here are a few options from this thread :

for a few days every few hours even though i had it set to 30 minutes it didnt work right. now its been updating every half hour and still the same crazy data. i mean its only a few lines of text for each article. i only have 10 newest showing. it doesnt make any sense. something has to be going on in the background that i dont know of.

the battery life was probably terrible if it used this much :/
That's crazy! Have you mailed the developers? It must be images or something, text couldn't add up to that. Maybe leave it connected to your wifi and run wireshark or something (if you've got an adapter that will run promiscuous mode properly) - maybe you can see what it's doing...

Images? Forget about images, this has to be downloading high quality videos to get to 9GB.
I have some serious security concerns about what this app is doing. You should try to sniff the data and see how much its sending versus receiving. I'd be curious to know what IP addresses it is communicating with. Did you install it directly from the market?

Hi,
I am the dev of this app.
1. when you have such trouble, please contact me by email (hopefully somebody did).
2. check if it load images and images sizes. It doesn't load 'thumbnails' from the websites, but full images if thumbnails are not available ... so, if the website use big images of 2Mb ... it can goes quickly.
3. disable widget cache if it was enable
4. here is my widget with 3h refresh period and 8 feeds :
http://pureapps.planethoster.org/images/presentation/pne_data.png
5. if you use the internal viewer, all browsing you does in the viewer is counted ... video streaming, downloads...
@deekjx : For comments about 'security concerns', dump the UDP/TCP trafic if you want, there is nothing hidden. But, please, be careful before publishing such comments. Now, if the app doesn't come from the market, you can be right... few users reported Pure calendar hacked bersions containing viruses because they got it from a 'forum'.
Please, email me logcats just after a manual refresh to check what is wrong.
Same for me too
Switched to manual update worked fine. contacted dev through market

Who wants to try and get the S-Voice apk working?

The S-Voice apk was just posted in the S3 area http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26293573&posted=1#post26293573
I've installed it on my GNEX and it installed fine, made it through the tutorial as well, but it crashed when I tried to change the wake up phrase. Anyone care to give it a shot at making it work? I was going to start with something simple like editing build.prop but I can't seem to find any info on what the S3 is listed as.
It's now working perfectly!! Nex7er in the Note forum discovered if you install the app from system/app it works perfectly and I can confirm it runs perfect on the nexus!!!

I installed on latest CM9 nightly, no issues here. I installed it normally without being in system folder.
Edit:
Seems too clunky and pointless/useless. I can do all those commands by tapping the screen manually and I'll know they are correct rather than relying on a sketchy voice to text algorithm.

To each his own I guess. As a guy with only one arm I can state for me, it is MUCH easier and faster to say "new dental appointment, June 5th at 9am and then confirm with yes then it is to:
open apps, select calendar, click the month view tab, flip to June, click on the 5th, select "new" on the 9am tab and then type out dental, etc...
Running bamf/jamesbond and get a force close on it
Cleared data on it and reloaded... Skipped trying to set a new wakeup and it will go through to asking me "which app do you want to open "
Unfortunately no matter what I say she comes back with that same line.
Of course, restarted again and didn't bother to wake her up... And now commands work.
Tried and seems to work pretty good

Probably it's searching for SGS3 alarm app
Can confirm that adding appointments and checking weather work though.
Timer will work as far as countdown, but doesn't seem to hook into any vibrate/ring function to notify you when it finishes.
It took me a few tries, and I only got it to install by skipping the setup part of it. The apk claimed I already had s voice installed. And, when I went to remove it, because it crashed despite installing it from system/app, it only gave me the option to remove updates. I'm running stock ROM and kernel. Unfortunately, I don't see how to get to settings for it, so I'm stuck calling it "Hi Galaxy!"
Here is a copy of the APK if anyone wants it
Been using it for quite some time, actually. It's been called into Axiom roms for awhile now.

If the alarm worked - it'd be fastest to set alarm that way.
Also, the timer would be nice if it actually did something when the countdown finished.
Little things like that I could see it handy for... plus for answers you'd look up on google, could be quicker to answer at times.
Installed it like any other apk. I am stock and not rooted. And it has worked tip top since the start

After some digging I found that with the Galaxy Nexus at 4.0.4 is having issues because its based off of 4.0.3 Workaround is to install the app under system/apps instead of regular installer. I used root explorer and had R/W enabled placed the file and opened/installed from their.

[Q] So... Anything new on Smart Updates?

Still gotta DL the WHOLE app (eg. a 1GB game update) instead of just the new/replaced files that Google announced will be launched with the JB release.
Smart Update: http://www.theverge.com/2012/8/17/3248874/google-play-store-smart-updates-enabled
Anyone know what going on with that?
I don't know the technical details of the technology, but from what I read about it I assume it only works for changes in the APK. Games often contain a lot of graphic data, which probably renders this technique kinda useless
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I'm pretty sure they are already enabled but they still show as if you are downloading the entire file. So there is no way to know when they are put to use and how big the apk diff files are.
Busybox free uses it..and facebook 1.9.9 update too...
With the last updates it was finished within seconds..the download....
Interesting. So how does Google select which apps start using it? Or is it some kinda automated update adding apps to its list for Smart Update support?
Noo the devs of the apps must build it in aka support it

I'm pretty sure that isn't the case. Google automatically enables smart app updates for all (I presume) apps. This was said at the I/O conference that developers didn't need to do anything and personally I haven't seen any new API calls nor manifest lines that I need to add.

FWIW, I updated Dead Trigger the other day and it only downloaded around 500k of updated data... so, yea, it does work for games as well.
Again, it depends on the APK and the changes involved.
Something I noticed the other day: the progress bar on the Play Store was slow, and would cut off somewhere in the middle just before updating. If you want to see the real update progress, look in the notification shade.

Thats from some app you downloaded. I definitely don't have that. Did you download a VOIP app or messaging app? Verizon Pixel?

LOL nope I saw that as well.... Strange
I was looking at my file explorer and noticed this too.
Do you have any VR applications installed?
Do you have any SDK installed?
Do you dl music/ movies etc?
Any unknown sources downloaded?
Or visit sites like Bluelight/DMT nexus/pill reports/shroomery/ Stuff like that?
How about Skype?
Sorry this is literally a new pop up and im noticing alot of the questions about this have been posted recently. please answer as detailed and turthfully as possible
I do have vr camera installed. Not much else. I deleted the folder and file to see if they pop up again.
I had installed samsung ipolis at one time.
Anyone come up with any more information on this? Just came across it on my own phone today. Google search turns up a few other posts about it but no info on what it is. I am suspicious that it *might* be associated with the DirecTV app because I just downloaded it today and then happened to notice that folder in / with a last modified timestamp of today. Other than that I have nothing to go on.
I suspect it's some 3rd party tool that many different software vendors will use.
Kind of how like everyone uses Flash or Java for something or other.
After deleting, it was consistently recreated shortly after rebooting. Using this behavior and after much trial and error I found that if I disabled storage permissions for the Directv app it would not be recreated. I don't know yet if it has an adverse effect on the app to leave the permission disabled. I wonder if it is related to the app's commication with the receiver since many of the references to eyeball sdk when googled are related to messaging. Just a thought with no hard evidence.
About the file EYEBALLSDKLogs. I just got the Samsung S7 and also the Galaxy Tab E on promo deal, but my husband and I both have S5 Actives that we have used for a little over 2 years now. Best phones we've owned BTW! Any who, before downloading any apps to either one of the new ones, I of course played with them a couple of days to get used to the features and see what was new. Tab E is pretty much a big version of S7 phone. They both had this new file that stuck out like a sore thumb considering the name of the file is a bit funny, but this file hasn't ever been on our other devices and we had the different messaging apps, I had a couple VR apps but deleted Ayer a few days & this particular file has never shown up. I did notice the DIRECTTV App was already pre-installed on the S7 and Tab E so it's very likely that's were this file is coming from. I just don't understand why after using the Directtv App it shows the file size with 50mb instead of 00.0 before use, but no extensions to the file when I click on it. I did delete it but as soon as I opened the DirectTv app, Viola' it's back.

Anyone come up with any more information on this? Just came across it on my own phone today. Google search turns up a few other posts about it but no info on what it is. I am suspicious that it *might* be associated with the DirecTV app because I just downloaded it today and then happened to notice that folder in / with a last modified timestamp of today. Other than that I have nothing to go on.

About the file EYEBALLSDKLogs. I just got the Samsung S7 and also the Galaxy Tab E on promo deal, but my husband and I both have S5 Actives that we have used for a little over 2 years now. Best phones we've owned BTW! Any who, before downloading any apps to either one of the new ones, I of course played with them a couple of days to get used to the features and see what was new. Tab E is pretty much a big version of S7 phone. They both had this new file that stuck out like a sore thumb considering the name of the file is a bit funny, but this file hasn't ever been on our other devices and we had the different messaging apps, I had a couple VR apps but deleted after a few days & this particular file has never shown up. I did notice the DIRECTTV App was already pre-installed on the S7 and Tab E so it's very likely that's were this file is coming from. I just don't understand why after using the Directtv App it shows the file size with 50mb instead of 00.0 before use, but no extensions to the file when I click on it. I did delete it but as soon as I opened the DirectTv app, Viola' it's back.

Had similar files on my stock LG tribute HD. Undoubtedly picked them up after getting greedy and down loading free cracked/nodded app not from playstore. Found this searching. Idk but it appears to be a p2p, remote client app. Have not checked Hybrid Analysis site for review yet but will.
*cannot post link as this is my first xda post. The site that has the developers description is slides hate.net eyeball-messenger-sdk-v100
Woukd like to hear input as this raises concerns and is suspicious in nature. Thanks
Hello, I just wanted to chime in and say thay I think it has something to do with the Directv app. The DVR portion in particular. I noticed when I tried viewing my dvr on the app, it had a quick view feature and it must have created that folder because I noticed mine after I was messing around with the Directv app.
