This happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I posted here (don't know how to refer you to a previous thread) and got a great response from forum member DenverCZBob, as follows: Pull out the s-pen and start a new note. Tap and hold the icon that looks like a microphone. A new menu will appear...

Worked like a charm. Thanks so much Bob. Jeff

The standard Samsung keyboard has gone missing! Now, every message I type & every input box I need to put information in, expects me top use the S-pen. How do I get it back? And how do I tell my GN2 to ONLY use S-pen input if & when I want (such as when I have the S-pen in hand)?

I'm not real good at keeping strict track of these types of things, but seeing as how I've had the phone for exactly one month and received my Samsung "care package" 2 days ago, I'd have to say it really did come faster than advertised. Way to go Samsung - let's see Apple copy that! Ps - that...

Finally, a question I can handle, lol. I'm 5'4"; the only problems I have encountered are the fit in some of my pants pockets and one-handed operation while lying in bed. Otherwise I don't seem to use the phone one-handed. My wife (5') also has a GN2 and I haven't heard one complaint from her...

Yup, this is a friendly place indeed. I'm not much into social media, but do want to add my wishes for a great '013! And congrats to DroidXcon.

saw this over at the xdadevelopers site in their Galaxy Note 2/Accessories forum. not a fan of FB, so was happy to see someone comment that it worked even without being a member. registered for my wife's GN2 & got her a Mint cover, then re-registered mine (with a different email) & picked up an...

@creccaj1, thanks. So, I guess if I click INSTALL in Google Play and my device is not connected, it's just going to use whatever method it can to install the app. And, conversely, the only way I can control when or how an app gets installed is by being able to download a .APK file, correct?

Still a noob, so I'll probably kick myself when I see the answers, but here goes... When I'm at work, away from Wifi, I try not to use up 3G/4G data. If my device is connected to my PC via USB & I download/install some app, say from Google Play, will the it automatically use data or will my PC...

I thought the simulator was for those who hadn't already purchased the Note 2. How wrong I was! With apologies to Bogart, Synycalwon, I think this (the simulator) is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Thanks DroidXcon (ha ha, I just got the pun in your nickname - it took typing it to sink in!). Not surprising you'd be the first to reply. Being from a somewhat "older" generation I prefer written supplements to vids, plus being at work now kind of limits what I can comfortably do. I'll check...

First off, thanks to all of you here who have expressed your opinions, good or bad, on the Note 2. And thanks to member "kxs783kms" for mentioning the price on Let'sTalk.com, with a special thanks to member "tooter123" for suggesting price matching at Best Buy. It took visits to 2 separate...
