[Q] Using Note as external pen tablet on Windows/Mac? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Does anyone know of an app that would allow you to link your note up with a PC/Mac via bluetooth and use the note as a regular external pen tablet/digitiser?
i.e. the s-pen input on the note is transmitted to the pc/mac and then output on its monitor, useful for Photoshop etc.
I've had a look around but never found an answer for this, does anyone know?
Thank you!

BUMP! Anyone out there?

[Q] NHL Gamecenter & TV Out?

Hi all,
I'm interested in acquiring a second hand Galaxy S, and just had one question.
I read somewhere that some apps are not compatible with the TV out functionality of the GS. Does anyone know if the NHL GameCenter app works with TV out (specifically are you able to watch videos and live feeds)?
I've attached the app for your convenience.
If anyone could test this out for me, it'd be much appreciated.
TV-out and your game
It is likely that if you had rooted your GTi9000, the TV-out will not work. The TV out only work with samsung Kies OS. It is not only your game, all other apps will not run if you rooted your phone. Or else the game should run on TV out.

Cannot find Smart Remote TV app to download

Happy New Year!
As per title, there is a software that works with the Note 3 and S4 which functions as a Remote Control for TVs, stereos etc.. This software is called WatchON, is installed by default on Note 3 and uses irDA (infrared) to control the aforementioned equipment.
There is now another part of this software which works specifically with WatchON and is only for Samsung Galaxy Gear. It is made by Peel. It functions as a remote tv etc. control using the irDA of the phone. So you leave the phone on the sofa looking the TV and can change channels using the Galaxy Gear..
More info here:

Well I cannot find this specific app for my Galaxy Gear to install it! If anyone has it could you please upload it?
Thanx.

The Gear has no IR emitter. There's no hardware to support it, it's impossible.

Yes I know that it has no IR hardware.
The Gear uses via bluetooth the WatchON app and the IR hardware of Note 3 to send commands to TVs etc.
In other words the Gear is used as a companion to WatchON app which is installed on the phone and sends the commands via BT to the phone which are then transmitted via the IR emitter of the phone to the TV set.
I am trying to find and download the Remote Control app which allows the Galaxy Gear to function as mentioned above.

I'm all for doing tech because you can do it, but that'd be a total waste that I can tell. You'd have to get your phone out, make sure it was pointed at the TV, then use the BT on your watch to control the phone to control the TV?

Haven't seen it, but it sounds like a cool idea to me. If you never have to touch a remote while watching a program, I get that this may seem a bit much. However, when you have multiple interruptions (think kids) and the remote has gotten lost between the pillows, the value of this idea becomes obvious.
I'll see if I can't find it.
That app hit the gear store awhile ago and was subsequently pulled within a few days-no idea why-did try it and it was more trouble than it was worth-after a few minutes I ended up uninstalling

it sounds rather usefull to me. i have my note 3 connected to TV/projector sometimes, and it's usually pointed at the screen anyway so having the ability to pause/change volume etc from my wrist would be more than cool.
Did anyone ever find this app?

Can any ROM make the Note5 support OTG thru the GearVR 2016 external port?

So, the 2016 GearVR (black one) supposedly supports OTG storage through its external USB Type-C port.
But I guess it was only possible when using the now terminated Note 7.
When I try using a USB drive through said port using my Note 5, there's no sign of it in the Gear VR video players or even the Samsung Gear image gallery.
So is it possible for a ROM to achieve this? OTG through GearVR 2016 port?

I have not been able to access anything o the MicroUSB port myself. Not sure if your purpose is to store big 3D movies, but what I do is have a SMB / FTP NAS(Asus router) and use file manager to access the videos on network.

Precisely. But how does this solution work? Can Moon Player access the movies seamlessly? Does the Network Drive show up as a storage drive?

After a lot of researching.. I finally found a solution that worked for me.
First I use ;
[Cardboard for Gear VR] to disable GearVR services from running. There are other apps that can stop the service from starting- making GearVR act like a Google Cardboard
then I use [AiCloud] from ASUS - I have an Asus router. This allows me to access my USB drive plugged into Router securely. There are other apps that can do this. Even if you do a share from PC on the network. That is a different discussion and you can find it easily online.
I brows my files on the NAS and click it using AiCloud. It asks what player I want to use, I use [VRTV] (The best looking one for watching videos on GearVR . You can name you files with key words to launch it in a specific format, so you don't have to select it everytime in 2D mode.
I use a bluetooth game controller Moga. I reassigned the buttons to exit, back button, play , go forward , etc..
Now I kick back and can back out to AiCloud when done , WITH GEARVR ON , close right eye and select another movie with controller.

Control Android TV with Voice from Android Phone

Hi,
Quest:
I am trying to find an easy way of controlling my Philips Android 7 TV from my Note 8 phone, using voice commands (Google), without using a separate device.
Status:
The TV does not have a built in microphone, nor does it's remote. I am also using a Rii Mini i13 remote that does have a built in microphone, but the microphone part does not work with the TV.
Question:
Does anyone know if that is possible, and if yes, how can i do it?
Thanks,
Daniel

It works fine with this remote: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.bouyguestelecom.remote
Just as the official Google remote it is extremely bad at keeping connection when restarting the TV though. I have to pull the plug.

How to create Education/Training videos

I am trying to create education videos (lectures) for a online course. I am trying to figure out how do I record the screen, write on the powerpoint slide screen using Spen while lecturing audio.
Is there a way to do this either directly on Note 8 or preferably using DEX ?
Can I use Note 8 connected to my laptop and use the SPen and Phone screen as writing pad?
