    S note , Formula match missing ?

    Actually, works with any keyboard. Just tested it with SwiftKey selected. I made a video just now about how to use wolfram alpha on the Note 3:

    S note , Formula match missing ?

    I've made a slight edit to my post. You can only do it inside the input text field in S Finder. It is really really buried in there.

    Streaming Videos from Dropbox restriction

    Aaron, you can now stream the complete video off dropbox with some apps. AllShare Play and ES File Explorer allow you to link cloud solutions and stream the entire video without downloading the entire file first.

    [HOW TO] Install Adobe Flash Player on Galaxy S4

    Adobe Flash Player still works great on the Galaxy S 4, but only on some browsers. I was surprised that they have even blocked it on the stock browser. But it works well when used with the right browser. No root necessary. Step 1: On your S4, go to Settings -> Security -> Enable Unknown...

    Streaming Videos from Dropbox restriction

    You can get around this by using AllShare Play. Link your dropbox in the allshare play app. And voila, you can play more than 15 minutes, uncompressed if you want to. Make sure you have the file itself in the AllShare Play video folder (it gets created when you link the dropbox account, just...

    Official Android 4.1.2 Video Review And Features List for Galaxy Note 2 (SHV-E250L)

    Yes. 480p gets those diagonal lines across the screen and you can't make out the picture. I used to get it all the time on 480p and 240p. That problem has disappeared completely for me.

    Power Saving mode consequences?

    I would guess Power Saving mode decreases heat, which is better for the CPU. But the CPU is durable. I don't think there's any practical gain in life of the CPU because you're using it less. If the CPU is good for 5 years at normal usage, and you're extending it to 10, what good is that when...

    4.1.1 -> 4.1.2 = exactly 400% the brightness, WOW!!!

    Just incase anyone is curious, here are the JPEG and CR2's. These pics are not glamour product shots. They are for the purposes of measurements off a highly calibrated light measuring device. You have to look at the EXIF information. The whole point is to take the same picture with the same...

    4.1.1 -> 4.1.2 = exactly 400% the brightness, WOW!!!

    Dave, I would have 100% agreed with you until yesterday, before I got the 4.1.2 update. And I can't say this will be the same experience with everyone. I believe it may be the carrier that has a say in these things, and my carrier initially put a very low maximum brightness, and now this thing...

    4.1.1 -> 4.1.2 = exactly 400% the brightness, WOW!!!

    For the test, I used some professional light measuring equipment (my DSLR). I captured an image at F/2.8, ISO 400, at 0 EV. Maxed out brightness on the Note 2, with Auto adjust screen tone off (important). I used a completely white picture shot at the same distance. Before update: Shutter...

    Sign This Petition: Dear Samsung, please make 64GB/32GB Samsung Galaxy Note 2!

    The internal storage (18MB/sec write, 44MB/sec read) is twice as fast than a class 10 micro SD (~10MB/sec write 20MB/sec read). I don't know about you but I'd rather not have to swap my internal storage with a external storage that is half the speed. Also rooting and replacing the kernel may...

    Galaxy Note 2 Battery Life Review (After 2 Weeks)

    haha, sorry. I'm not sure if that video is auto captioned. On the officially captioned ones, my gf is doing the captions for me. She is not familiar with the tech terms, and also, English is her hobby, not a primary language. She is helping out lots though and the translations are improving...
