i want to use a stylus to write a note. but i don't know how gtab suppot stylus.
i hope anyone can help me
thanks a lot.
PS:my english is very terrible
I am also looking for a stylus but so far no luck. Anyway, I will let you know if I find one that works.
Welcome to the forum.... what nationality are you?
You'll need a stylus that's compatible with a capacitive touchscreen. Something made to work with Ipad or Xoom. You can also make your own with a piece of anti-static bag (the silver ones).
do you know any app note suppot stylus well?
I have never tried a stylus with the Gtab. You could try the canvas app in Gojimi's ported adam apps thread, but you'll probably need to search for a notes app that will work on the Gtab with a stylus for your purpose.
Gojimi's Adam Apps for Gtab Thread
2 apps
multiNote and NoteEverything can make notes with a stylus. As the previous poster said, get one that is iPad compatible. I find that the notes don't work as well as a tablet PC stylus.
I purchased a stylus from Amazon which is sold by BoxWave. It's just a generic capacitive stylus.
I've not been really impressed with it, it seems like I have to push down fairly hard to get it to work.
I have not used it with any note-taking apps yet.
REVISED: I've been using it for a couple of weeks now, and I like it. I am using it on my Aria as well. Very good for the price.

This one works. My friend has one for his ipad and i tested on my g tab. Not sure where you can get one though. The tip (unlike my other stylus) is not "rubber". It's soft (really soft) -> can be pushed in with minimal strength.
Edit: It seems to be from 3M and heres a video showing how soft the tip is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiA-pc2ssMA&feature=related
Edit 2: Im now stuck on Youtube because it seems utterly good! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXgxAJf9j-g
Just found a new stylus by wacom,bamboo stylus
http://www.wacom.eu/index2.asp?lang=en
Looks promising, should be due out this month. It has the thinnest nib of any stylus on the market, and since I take alot of stylus notes (maple paint and genial) I think this is a must have for me.
I have ordered it from their site, delivery is within 14 days, i am currently using the Boxwave one but like this one because it is the size of an average ball point pen which I would prefer. Hope it works as well as or better than the Boxwave. I went for it because of wacom's reputation.
Can be ordered from here:
http://eu.shop.wacom.eu/Bamboo/Bamboo-Stylus/Bamboo-Stylus?c=9149
ordered a dagi one as the bamboo looks pretty pricey for.....a possibly better designed rubber nub. I use a wacom tablet and know they make some nice stuff, but it doesn't seem to be much different than the cheaper alternatives out there.
The dagi should be interesting with the clear tip and red dot so you can see where you're pointing, gonna play around with autodesk sketchbook mobile with it.

I am interested to hear how this one works out. I am currently using a targus which works great for me. but want a little more precision. Please update this when you get it....
Think will order one, will give a review of it when received, but probably be a few weeks before I get it
does the wacom pen work with the TF-101? I am confused....

Its not anything that will work like a wacom tablet + their stylus. This is just a regular capacitive stylus with the nub at the end of it, it just so happens that wacom makes it. Theres no interactivity between the stylus and the device other than the contact of the nib. So yea, it will work fine with the TF101, as will all capactive styli on the market today.

It takes a little getting used to to hold it properly and to put the right pressure to get that disc centered, but once you do, the lines start at or very close to the dot, depending on whether i am holding it right. It takes a bit of getting used to, and seems more suitable for drawing and sketching. This is because if you're doing quick swipes i.e. quickly jotting down notes you might not get the disc centered before the tablet registers the touch, causing a fairly inaccurate input.

That doesn't sound too promising. I'm expecting mine to be delivered on Monday. Was going to use it for handwrite note taking
I ordered the DAGI too.
I'll also provide feedback once I receive it.

Well the way I see it when u are handwriting your movements should just follow your first stroke. I tried writing quickly and found the dot to be useless because I'm writing so fast I'm just going by muscle memory instead of trying to aim it

I really cant wait to hear what you guys think of the stylus.
Acually, it all depends on how well the transformer can be used to handwrite/inking for me if im going to buy it or not. =)

I have received mine today and can give a little feedback on how I am finding the stylus in use.
The stylus itself is really nice to hold in the hand, its weight is just right and it actually feels like you are holding a good quality pen. I expected it to be a little longer, more like the size of a standard size ball point pen however it is just a little bit shorter than this. Having said this, because of the way the weight is distributed on the stylus, it does not feel uncomfortable in the hand and feels very natural.
The end uses a small rubbery nib similar to others available however is considerably smaller when compared to the Boxwave stylus which I also use. This allows for more precision when writing and placement on the tablet.
To test handwriting, I used Tabnotes which is available on the market as a trial. My findings are that the stylus can definitely be used for handwriting and produces very acceptable results, I can confidently say that the writing produced from it resembled my true handwriting (Which is not very tidy by the way but is unique to me).
There is a slight screen sensitivity issue which I think is related to the transformer and not the pen. When you place dots on top of the letter i or strike through letters like t, you need to apply a bit more pressure (not excessive) or it may not register on the tablet.
I used a similar test on my HTC desire HD (DHD) and this is where the quality of the stylus was really highlighted. On the DHD, straight away I noticed that the screen was more responsive, the stylus seemed to glide effortlessly on it's screen with minimal pressure being applied and the results were near enough 100%. I used writepad to test on the DHD which converts your handwriting into typed text and my handwriting was recognised instantly.
Hopefully the upgrade to the honeycomb software will address the sensitivity issue on the transformer which if it does will make the Transformer an ideal platform for handwritten notes. Having said this, in its current form it is still very usable, all it means is that you have to use slightly more pressure on the transformer. I am also assuming that this will work even better on the Ipad2 because the screen sensitivity is no doubt better on it.
I hope this has been helpful, any queries about the stylus, let me know and I will try to help before you take the plunge and buy it.
Edit: I have since writing this, used it on my wifes Ipad2 and as I thought it gave very similar results as the DHD where the results were equal i.e. almost 100% accuracy.
I have also added some pics where I have compared the size of the Boxwave stylus against the Bamboo stylus and another pic showing the size difference of the nibs on each.

That looks awesome, im going to use it for marking up pdf drawings in the field. If i can keep somewhat a straightish line its a winner.
@ Delecron:
You can draw lines using Repligo reader or EZpdf which also allows you to draw in freehand if necessary.

Looks good- I also recently been using Tabnotes with a Targus which works great. I LOVE Tabnotes- it definitely has some great potential. Any idea when the full version will be released. I am sick of looking at the Trial version smack in the middle of the papers..

Had an email from the developer a couple of days ago where he apologised for not getting back to an email that I had sent him when he first put the software on the market where I requested from him a few changes such as having the undo and other tools at the top instead of having to select them via the menu option. He has done this and made a few other changes that enhance the software e.g. the little arrows on the bottom corner on the right to position the writing area etc.
Hopefully he should be releasing the full version fairly soon because he also advised that the reason for late response to emails was because he is hard at work improving the software before release which in his estimation is a couple of weeks.
I am checking for software updates daily for Tabnotes as I too can see the potential of this program and it is definitely my first choice for producing hand written notes on my tablet.
Too costly, even though the quality is there I just can't pay that much. Probably going to buy a few of these.
I have found the following are better than the built-in app when used with the HTC Magic pen and Honeycomb update:
Antipaper

These apps don't integrate with Evernote as well the built-in Notes app. These apps require explicit export to Evernote.
Any other great notes apps out there with good hand writing support?

Did you mean they don't integrate with Evernote as well AS the built in note app? I'm definitely looking for a better note taking app that doesn't auto load the keyboard when my hand hits the screen before the pen.
But I can't really sacrifice Evernote integration.

The apps I listed require explicit export to Evernote. Not an issue if you export say every week or every day.
Okay, so I've tried the 3 you've suggested. I'm glad they're only $1 each, because so far I'm not satisfied with any of them...
The most promising to me seems to be Writepad stylus. But here's what confuses/frustrates me. There's an option to have the app only take input from the Thinkpad Tablet n-trig pen. This sounds awesome seeing as our stylus is by n-trig. But once I turn it on, the scribe pen is useless. With this option off, the pen works as it should but the app still registers some marks from my palm resting on the screen.
Antipaper has a sweet looking interface. However, my handwriting doesn't look as good as it does with Writepad, plus it's even worse when it comes to registering marks from my palm.
Quill is neat as well, but suffers from the same problems.
My question is this:
Are there any apps that have an option like Writepad that makes it so it will only accept marks from the pen? Let me know. Hoping to take notes at a meeting I have to attend at 7:30 and need to find a solution beforehand.
Thanks

I was a bit confused by your post. Quill, for me, does complete palm rejection when the pen or pencil is selected. In fact, it refuses any input by my fingers entirely while in this mode. This is one of the reasons why I put Quill above any of the other apps.
I agree with TSGM - Quill does a good job at palm rejection, and the inking quality is nearly as good as Wacom on my HP 2740p (I NEVER thought I'd say that about N-trig). What I still want is easy conversion to PDF for storage on our server since that is out standard.

Palm detection is best with Quill and acceptable with Antipaper. With my Flyer, the built-in app does not have the fine precision of Quill nor Writepad Stylus. Fine detail is important to me. Also, the built-in app becomes slow after about two pages of notes.
you can get quill for free right from the dev
http://code.google.com/p/android-quill/downloads/detail?name=quill-v8.1.apk
I decided to give Quill another try thinking I must not have given it enough of a chance based on the positive comments in this thread regarding the app.
I used it for a half hour meeting. It does read hand writing very well. Turning off hand input also works well. It didn't pick up any marks from my palm or anything other than the pen.
I have a complaint though that I'm not sure can be resolved. As I got closer to the bottom of the "page", naturally my palm shifted lower on the screen. My palm began to trigger the quick menu on the bottom right to keep popping up which really got annoying. Any ideas on how to disable this while using the app?
Thanks for the Quill recommendation. The writing experience is a huge difference from the stock notes app. It would be nice if it had a palate to quickly switch between pens and color like the stock app.
I use all of them and went back to the notes app. The integration with Evernote is great. The integration with the calendar however is a big differentiator. I was in a meeting today an opened the notes app and it knew that I was in that meeting and automatically titled the notes btu the meeting name. the notes being stored on the calendar and Evernote is great add well.
Using both the pen and Swype gives me a great combination for quick text entry. I now need to figure out the right screen cover that maximizes the pen experience and I am set
Unlike in PDF editor, honeybar works great and hides the notification bar in quill without side effects.

I really like Quill, it works really well. I just finally put my old M200 up on eBay as a result of the View and the N-Trig stylus. The only thing that I miss from OneNote is the ability to lasso a section of text/drawing(s) and move it freely to accommodate a better layout or more space. This is what made digital inking so worthwhile to me. Has anyone seen an app with this capability?
Same Enquiry Here as The OP's one but for GB ROMs ?

LectureNotes
LectureNotes - Just wanted to put this app out there for consideration. I am new to flyer and looking to replace the capabilities I had with my Dell Latitude XT and MS Onenote synced thru the cloud. Lecture Notes seems to have a great inking capability and good organization, but lacks the Evernote integration of the native notes app. Just need to ask, has anyone learned a way to disable the onscreen keyboard in the notes app. If not for that, it could be my potential replacement.
None of the links to download work for me. Takes me to file sharing page but file won't download.

Hey guys,
So I have been reeeaaallly looking forward to use my Transformer Prime as a note taking device. I tried a $5 stylus, it had a very fat tip and clearly not even remotely ideal for taking notes.
I want the end experience to be as close to taking notes on a piece of paper as possible, so that I can avoid using paper and pen.
In this regard, please answer me the following questions:
1) What stylus do you use?
2) What app do you use to write handwritten notes?
3) Does it really feel just as natural to write with that stylus and app combo as a real life paper and pen/pencil?
Thanks for the help!
1) I have a DAGi P507 pen. It has a clear plate and the feel of the pen it self is really good. It came with extra tip, clear stickers to protect the plate and even an extra stylus for my phone.
2) I have tried almost every note taking app there is on the market, but haven't really found any that I really like. Best so far have been FreeNote, Antipaper Notes and Genial writing.
3) The experience is no where near natural. Recognition is way too slow and it won't pick up any small movement. I have heard alot about app called TouchScreen Tune, which they say should improve handwriting and drawing, but I haven't tested it myself yet, because I can't root my device at the moment.
I have no idea whether it is hardware or software related but the ipad has a really nice feel to it when handwriting with notability. I think android just needs to catch up in software optimization and we'll get there someday. For now just make do with what you have. I have found that ezpdf with a blank white pdf is good for note taking. I am using the adonit jot stylus with thermal grease in tip. Good luck.

Regarding the sensitivity of the Prime:
I have also heard of TouchScreen Tune, and I've seen it in action on the Samsung Galaxy Tablet. It seemed to work great on that tablet, so I imagine a similar experience can be expected on the ATP.
Ultimately, it increased sensitivity so it can pick up all those small movements. So I recommend you give it a shot if you can't seem to get a good feel for the default values (of screen sensitivity).
Hey everyone, I've had this idea of trying to merge the use of my transformer prime with my business. I go out to several homes a day to take measurements for various things, as well as sketch rough drawings. Does anyone here use their tablet for something similar?
The reason I ask is because I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and the stylus that comes with that has a nice fine tip that I can create notes and drawings in Evernote pretty well with.. but that stylus won't work on the transformer. So I ordered the Wacom Bamboo stylus with the rubber end. But when I write numbers like "39 3/4" or something -- it looks like a 5 year old wrote it. Same goes for the simple drawings and the dimensions.
Are there any options available that can make the tablet useful for this type of work?
Thanks everyone,
An excellent app for Android for stylus-based notes and sketches is LectureNotes. It has a ton of features, and the developer keeps improving the app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.acadoid.lecturenotes
Quill is also a pretty good writing/sketching app, but not as many features as LectureNotes:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.write.Quill
For styluses that have finer control, you may want to consider some of the following stylus makers:
iFaraday: has a dielectric micro-mesh surface, which is stiffer than than rubber-tip stylus. I have the Artist version, and it's great for sketching.
Adonit: the Jot Pro fine-point stylus, has a transparent disc so you can better see the point of contact. Good for handwriting.
DAGi: similar in style to the Adonit, in a variety of sizes.

Thank you for the recommendations! I did search quite a bit when it came to which stylus to order and I did see the Jot Pro. I was going to order it but I saw a few YouTube videos of people using it and it wasn't working all that great.
Basically my sketches would be very limited to some rather basic line drawings.. it's not like I'm sketching faces or anything elaborate. So I'd much rather have something more geared to neater handwriting.
As far as the apps go, do they themselves have anything to do with the responsiveness of the device? I know the answer is probably no, but I was wondering if their software tends to "correct" on the fly making for neater lines or whatever.. I'm not sure if that question is completely clear or not.
The reason I ask is because I like Evernote's interface and I like that you can synchronize accounts with certain notebooks, etc.
As far as a technical question goes -- do you know why my galaxy note's stylus will not work with the prime? I read that they are both capacitive touch screens.. but I guess there is more to it than just that.
Thanks again!

LectureNotes and Quill do not "improve" the quality of the writing, however they both have a zoom mode where you can write larger (and more legibly) and then this is unzoomed in the captured writing. LectureNotes has some fine-tuning options to improve the screen responsiveness to the stylus, and the apps have a palm detection feature so there is an area on the screen you can rest your hand and not have that detected by the screen.
You may also want to check out the Skitch app, which is from Evernote. It does improve or smooth out writing, and integrates very well with Evernote.

The Galaxy Note devices have both a capacitive touch screen and an active digitizer screen that works with the special S-pen stylus. The S-pen stylus does not work on capacitive touch screens that come with most tablets (like the Prime) or smartphones. For capacitive touch screens you will need a standard capacitive stylus.
