Ok everyone, 1st time poster here hoping for help (without being beaten up about my question).
I have moved from Samsung Galaxy Note 4 to One Plus 3. The phone is great, BUT I really really miss two items from my Note 4
The Samsung Dialer - It has Video Chat to other Samsung users built in, the Google phone app seems a little "sparse" to me (just my opinion)
Messaging App by Samsung - It shows when other samsung users are typing and gives status such as "read" once a message is read.
Is there anyway I can get these two items Phone & Messaging onto the Oneplus 3 phone as my primary apps?
Please let me know - Thanks for being awesome & helpful !
Won't anyone help me determine is this is doable ??

more than likely not
Highly, highly doubtful. Someone can chime in with more knowledge, but that is pretty deep framework stuff from what I know.

You have to have a Samsung device for those to work. They need Samsung framework and drivers to work at all and any port would not have the Samsung to Samsung options. Also the read recept is just that. It can be turned on in most messaging apps, but won't do any good if the other end has them disabled.

Hi all,
I just had two questions relating to the Galaxy Nexus which I bought a couple of days ago
1. When I receive a text or email, on my old Galaxys S2 it used to have a number next to the icon. For example if two people had text me, the number two would show up next to the text message icon informing me. This doesn't appear to be happening on my Galaxy Nexus. Is that normal?
2. One of my favourite widgets on the Galaxy S2 was the Mini Paper widget. I've got the .APK for it, but it doesn't seem to install on the Galaxy Nexus. Does anyone know how this widget can be installed?
Hope someone can help me out
1. That is part of touchwiz, the Samsung equivalent of Sense on HTC devices. The Galaxy Nexus is a pure Google experience device, but you can find widgets on the Android Market that will give you badges for SMS/Email.
2. That APK might need the touchwiz framework to work, no idea though.

Thanks for the reply ZeroBarrier.
Regarding the first question, I just wanted to make sure that this was universal to all Galaxy Nexus' and not just mine LOL. Strange how this feature doesn't exist though as I thought it was very useful on my S2.
Regarding the second question, if anyone does know how to get the Mini Paper widget working on the Nexus Galaxy, please let me know
Regarding the Mini Paper widget, have you tried ColorNotes from the market? Not EXACTLY the same but gets the job done

I've tried ColorNotes but didn't really like it to be honest mate. The S2's Mini Paper
I feel is the best quick note taking widget out there. Everytime I try installing it, the process just fails
Surely there must be a way to make it work? It's only a small widget LOL

So it's not possible at all then to get this widget ported over to the Nexus?
I heard somewhere that Touchwiz widgets require the Touchwiz framework.
*cough*
The same goes for Sense widgets, Blur widgets, and any other manufacturer-UI widgets.
I just picked up my Galaxy Note 3 yesterday and one of the things I noticed was the ability to add users/profiles is missing. This is a core functionality of Android and has been present for quite some time now.
I've gone through the settings many times I have been unable to find a way to add profiles. This is especially useful for people who have small children yet still allow them to use their phones to play children's games, etc. If anyone knows how to utilize this functionality within the Galaxy Note 3, please let me know.
Thank you.

Unless I'm misunderstanding you, the profile feature which was added in Android 4.2 is only for tablets (of course unless it's hacked in).
I thought the 4.3 version allowed user profiles for phones too.

I don't think so, as my Galaxy Nexus 4.3 doesn't allow different user profiles as far as I can tell.
Nope.
The feature's only been enabled for tablets. 4.3 brought Restricted Profiles, but it didn't add phone support.

We'll probably get a ROM that hacks it in, don't worry.
Any way of getting it? I have a rooted note 4 if that helps. Anyone that can help lemme know
+1 I've also been hunting for this. I heavily use S-Note on my Note 10.1 and would like to sync (using FolderSync) to my Note 4 for compatibility with Action Memo (which is now baked into the S-Note v4+ app).
*Edit: @moabizzi - Since you have a rooted Note 4 you should be able to back up the S-Note app using something like Titanium Backup and grab the .apk. Something like this... http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-all-things-root/263876-saving-apk-using-titanium-backup-file.html

Did this work ?
I've been wondering about this as well since Action Memo was merged into SNote on the Note 4. Having Action Memo be an entirely separate app and on the tablet is kind of an annoyance now.
Ill try it tomorrow and report back
@moabizzi Any luck?
I was reading into a bit and realized that it would need a bit more work than just uninstalling the current apk and reinstalling the one from the note 4. it needs SPen functionality which would need those files also deleted from the 10.1 and transfered over from the note 4. anyone on good terms with a dev that could look into it for us?
I took the apk from my note 4 and installed it on my note pro 12.2. No go

Thats what i figured, it needs some system files probably with a modded base to recognize it as a note 4

It will need new S Note apks and some of the system/lib files.

If someone can reference the right files and instructions ill give it a try and see if it works.
Other than that looks like were stuck unless we can get a devs help.
So i went through my system files using titanium back up and these are the five files which jumled out to me to be the ones specific for the SPen and functionality
DigitalPenSDK 4.4.4-N910TUVU1ANJ7*
Direct pen input 4.4.4-N910TUVU1ANJ7
S Note 4.0
Screen write 1.0
SPenKeeper 1.0.79814.158294
I made a backup of these, except SNote 4, if you need em
Impossible we need to wait for 4.4.4 or Lollipop
Hi, i am wondering if you can give a try to port the Mont blanc app from the note 4 to note 2014. I tried to install it, but it is not working.
I think it will be very nice pen style for the s note...
Hi. I'm also looking for new app. However in fact the only thing I need is to stick notes from Action Memo on my desktop. New (Note 4) edition has pin icon, which allows to create those widgets. If you know any other option to gain this functionality - let me know.
so i got some info back from a Developer and pretty much it has to be baked into a ROM. its NOT as easy as flashing the apks and working, the Sys UI has to be modified/adapated to integrate the new Snote/aircommand. I believe this is also the case for the Monte Blanc features in Snote.
Just curious which rom is everyone running? maybe we can ask the dev to take a look at it and donate to him for getting it done.

Hi have you had any luck? I'm on the note 3 and haven 2 10.1's, a 2014 10.1, 2 samsung notebooks and a samsung win 7 tablet- I dont see an updated version available for windows, just the same as the note 3.
Not really. Kinda gave up looking. I contacted a dev and he said he would look into it..... But he said not to hold my breath. Ita tied into the 4.4.4 firmware and our devices would need a rom based on those. Is it possible, yes... But its gonna take work and know how. I for one dont have the know how.
I am on 4.4.4, if I have the app, I can give it a try
Well, coming over from the Captivate Glide forums, I'd like to say that I'm enjoying most of the changes done over the years but there's a few negatives I've noticed.
I bought my Note II on swappa and it was on 4.1.1. I tried updating over Kies, and recovery gave me a red warning saying "unsupported version." After crying and fighting Kies and Odin, I finally got 4.4.2 stock from http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-2-att/development/rom-att-i317-ucucnj1-mj4-stock-odex-t2973448 and with that being stable for me, I started working on getting all my apps.
My Recommended Apps:
Flashlight: To Activate the Torch widget
AcDisplay: Minimalistic Lockscreen
Amazon Kindle: ebooks
ArtFlow: drawing
Pandora: music
Textra: alternate text/sms
Themer: amazing themes
So, I thought I'd start my introduction to the Note II community and hopefully finding out what's good and bad on the Note II and what apps, themes, and ROMs for daily drivers ya'll recommend to use.
Welcome to the Forums I'm more of a lurker here on XDA but I've had a note II for over 3 years and use this site frequently!
Thanks for the app list! Been looking for an app like Artflow for a while now!
My Recommended Apps:
1) Nova Launcher (polished customizable launcher)
2)VSCO Cam (Photo editing, with tons of presets)
3)Keep (Create notes, lists, to-do lists)
4)Power Toggles (since stock doesn't have data on/off from drop down menu)
6)DoubleTwist (Music player with podcasts)

By asking in the appropriate Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting section.
From the endgadget video you can see the samsung notes is still there...
But I wonder if there has been any tip if it has been improved or if it has recovered some features from the s-note app.
Maybe they will say something else during the the note 9 presentation.
i'm wondering this too. in the app drawer for the Tab S4, i saw Samsung Notes, but who knows what they've done with it. call me old fashioned, but the S-Note app on my now dead 10.1 2014 was already pretty much perfect for what i needed.
also seems like Sammy is really flogging the Book Keyboard + DEX experience, so that makes me wonder if they are hyping typed notes apps, especially since MS Word is pre-installed?
hope i'm wrong.
Actually didn't think MS Word was pre-installed as I thought for devices under 10" it was free, but anything over there had to be a license to run it. MS said this a while back maybe something has changed.
Anyways when typing something I can see them pushing the Keyboard aspect more since the keyboard can take up a good chunk of the screen. I'd be curious if you can still do note taking by just writing it on the screen with the Pen. Also saying that curious if the pen is similar or the same to the one that is coming with the Note 9? Doubt it, but it would be nice to have that function.

The samsung notes app is still there and you can install s-note app from the play store (whose last update is around last year note 8 release), which is still one of the best options for note taking (both in android and ios). However, samsung seems more focused in selling a stylus which can do tricks than in improving (or at least maintaining the original quality) the note taking process.

Well actually, if you go to user reviews for the samsung notes and s-note apps you read always the same: "Bring back the old functionality".
Apparently, S-note app is not compatible with the tab S4. I tried to install it from the PC play store and says it is not compatible with the tab s4 but it is with my note 8. Such a shame, I really miss the one on my note 10.1 2014 too.
I successfully installed S Note. I downloaded the apk here:

If you go into the Samsung Store, you will find the majority of updates for the Samsung Notes app there. For some strange reason, Samsung doesn't post the updates for the Samsung Notes app on Google Play.
I sideloaded Samsung Notes 3.0 that you can get from APKmirror.
New design and a few new features.
