Just found out about hovernote. As a student who spends many hours researching I always dreamed of having a multi screen like the note 10.1 , unfortunately I bought the p7500 before the note came out.
Spent a few weeks trying to research onskreen cornerstone but that didn't go very far
Then I found out about floating apps. Apps that float on any screen and make multitasking so much easier
You can find it in the play store

This isn't the same kind of multi-tasking that is available on the Galaxy Note.
I thinks is better. With standout being an open source now there are many opportunities. Floating apps will take Android to the next level. There is floating videos, floating Facebook and l bet more will come. The developer who created software got hired by google recently so expect true multitasking abilities out soon .

There's actually quite a few good floating apps available
You should have a look at aircalc, darkcalc, performance monitoring (by chainfire) and popup browser. Floating notes is also great

I use both hovenote & aircalc. They make working so much easier. Only thing I am still looking for is a floating calendar (like stock Samsung).
Id the Samsung mini app bar with calculator not enough?

I would highly recommend pulse. I use that app more than anything else and on the tablet the split screen is really nice.

Try the following:
Feedly
Newsr
News360 (still in Beta but quickly getting better)
Pulse
My favorites are Feedly and Newsr currently. Several more are in beta stages.

thanks for these suggestions. i tried news 360. its user interface is nice .... and reminds me of flipboard somehow. before any updates from above apps mentioned , ifeel news 360 acts more reasonable for 10.1.

I love pulse. A preinstalled app that doesn't suck is great.
Pulse is okay, I hope flipboard comes to android.
It would be nice but I recently took a survey with News360 and they're currently working on Twitter/Facebook integration. It could possibly help me forget about Flipboard.
Man...if only I could code, I would have started working on an app just like Flipboard called Scrapbook. LoL. I wouldn't be surprised to see Flipboard appear on Android sometime after Christmas. I still wonder if Apple doesn't pay some of these developers not to work on both.
It seems silly as anybody who can program, can just take your idea, change it a bit and put in on another marketplace.
with that being said , flipboard to me ,also is far more better in providing iformation than any apps i tried on android os.
just by searching word 'cancer' , in these apps vs flipboard , one can clearly see the difference ....
hope flipboard coming to android soon ...

Another thing is that they need to make the content more customizable and give more consideration to the individual preference.

That is true.
Apart from the tremendous claim for their attractive layout, this is a real problem.
There is not enough personal customization of content, and most often, the status updates chronologically.
Ive never had the chance to play with it but having seen reviews, I would really like to use planetary on android.
I would pay 4.99 on the market for that
What do you mean there is no Flipboard-like app? Theres Google Currents which is superior
I was currently searching for planetary. Only thing i found , was this thread.
Can someone port it for android? Or am i asking something incredible?
I have flipboard installed on my tab. In the play store says isn't compatible but you can instal it if you download the apk from other source. Once installed the app says in the first time open that is not made for this screen size but works perfectly!

There is a new Commercial I saw just today. I was wondering if anyone can name the app where two (people with the samsung galaxy) notes are drawing on the same picture at the same time. The picture with the goldfish. Also which app was the one used to annotate a document? Either way, WONDERFUL Commercial!
I can't post video links yet, but it's called 'Samsung Galaxy Note - Meet the Note'
Yes saw it about time they show the feature set of the note.

Cant wait for this application to come out.
As an iOS ex-user, I miss lots of apps that I used in iOS. One of the most important of them is Tweetbot.
I've been searching for a great Tweetbot replacement and the only tolerable ones that I found are Plume, Boid and TweetDeck. But I am being forced to use the terrible official client because of the push notifications. Those clients have some sort of "placebo" push, which is slower and is less battery-efficient.
So, there's my question: can I use another app to push Twitter mentions to my device? Personally, I've got 2 ideas: an app like Boxcar (available for iOS, developers say that they are working on an Android app, but it feels abandoned) or some way to redirect official Twitter's notifications to Plume when I tap on them on Notification Center.
Thanks!

Hi, I'd like if someone can explain to me why android apps never open Web links within the app instead of always redirecting you to the browser like iOS and I never noticed this before but I'm currently using an iPhone along side my Galaxy S3 since I'm in the Caribbean and I just think the iOS way makes more sense especially for apps like cracked and Facebook.... Thoughts?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Because the android apps in question do not have a web browser within them, at least not in the sense of a traditional browser. I can't attest to how iOS works as I have too many qualms with apple to use their products, but I would assume many of their apps also launch a browser for web content, and if they don't its due to integration of a browser within the app.

Hey sorry I'm just noticing the reply and all I'm looking for is a discussion of some sort but a bit of an update I just used the CNN app on my Galaxy and it as in opened links pertaining to the app within itself such as unlocking the live TV and I just think more android apps should do it and also you might be familiar with flip board and how not handles links that's what I mean

Using the Note app with the S-Pen is important to me so I am wondering if there is any 4.3/4.4 ROM out there that will do this. Thanks.

Check out these pens from Adonit. They eliminate your need for TouchWiz. They focus on iOS support, but they do work with Android. There are a number of YouTube videos you can review.

Papyrus is another option. I actually forgot this phone has an spen.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
If you really want the Samsung apps, then the answer is no.
There are a ton of apps which work with the spen hardware just like on a stock rom, including palm rejection and spen button use etc, use the market and search.
Thanks guys, I will try all your suggestions out. I like the handwriting to text feature though.
There's nothing better than S-Notes but a few as good. Here are my top choices in order of best.
LectureNotes - though on KitKat, the writing lags a bit
Papyrus
Memo
Stylus Beta - Although not a note app, it allows you to use the S-Pen to input text
Write
Jotter
Bamboo Paper
OmniNote
