S note no longer works. You can sideload it all you want. It'll be installed, open up and even sync your notes but it will freeze when you'll try to open a previous note. Tried and tested it but it's a no go

Thanks for sharing. You're correct. This apk works, however, this S-note is not tweaked to work on Note 8 and is evident when writing with the spen. It lags very very badly

Not sure what i am missing but i downloaded the apk linked above and there is no action memo or or options to pin to home screen such as above

After you guys install the S Note app, be sure to install the action memo shortcut app developed by a reddit user:
https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyNote8/comments/6zb58n/action_memo_shortcut/
Basically, it allows you to make a shortcut to the action memo part of the S Note app. Which is useful for putting the action memo on the s pen pop up wheel.

When you open Snote click on categories and then click on action memos. Then you can click on the add New memo pen at the bottom right. To pin to desktop, click the share at the bottom left and then select pin to desktop in the menu.
Alternatively use the Reddit shortcut abovementioned

This thread is so helpful. Thanks guys.
Anyone figured out how to get photo note working? Found the APK's on APK Mirror but install fails.

No lag for me either. There was also an update to SNote from the Play store this morning - but no description of what was changed. I updated, but not had a chance to test it yet.

Oddly enough, after I install this its not showing up in the "Widgets" list? Anyone know why? I've installed it like any other .apk file i've installed before.
Update:Figured it out, the app is called "News And Weather". Sweet application!
Genie Widget - Are sources available somewhere?
Is this kind of backport a "binary hack" or are sources available somewhere?
If yes, were can I find them?
Thanks

Same here, I don't see it either after installation.
I found it under News and Weather in my Android Widgets section. The news and weather icon is fine, but the weather only app displays with font too large to display all the information.

I'm new here and have sort of a dumb question. How do you get this onto your Eris? I mean since you can't install from sd card without root right?
edit: Nevermind. I had a hunch that if I downloaded it onto my phone, Astro would pick it up.
I uninstalled it. Reason being because whenever I would wake the phone up I would have a major lag in Sense. I found out that the Genie Widget would almost try to play catch up with the way it slides through all of the news it has on the widget. I put up with it for a couple of days but then I just got tired of always having to wait for it to catch up with itself. Cool app though
I haven't had any lag or problems with it. Although I disabled most of the news and mainly use it for the weather. htc's weather widget wouldn't update right for me

If you have the Android SDK you can use adb to install it. It's not too user friendly though, you have to know what the directory is and stuff.
It's faster once you get the hang of it.
Here is a clear version if anyone's interested.

Any way to get some sort of Application like S-Note on HTC One?

The Samsung Note 2 has a great S Note application where one can write notes and add pictures on there along with Audio Notes. Is there something similar to this application that is available or can be added to the HTC ONE? Is there one that comes with it or is there a way to get one similar to the one that comes with the Samsung Note 2 on there?
Instead of just having a basic note application where one can just types notes with no pictures or no audio. Anyone here able to help with this?
Does evernote not allow for this?

Evernote is an application that requires you to save everything on their server. No privacy this way and you have to upload and download everything from them every time you need something. Last but not least they charge you for storage space and you do not have the option to only keep info on your device only if I am not mistaken. Would prefer an application just like the one on on the Samsung Note 2 called the S-Note.
Thanks for your input though :angel:

Permissions and privacy invasions are like that of Evernote. That Toggle sync pretty much gives them control over turning and over riding your sync options meaning if you turn sync off they can turn it on and sync if they want to.

Yeah SNote syncs with your Samsung/SCloud account so everything is saved on Samsung's servers.
EDIT: S Note's permissions :
1
2
3
4
The only permission it isn't granted is 'Sleep with your wife/significant other' then?

Is that an option to sync with Samsung/SCloud or a must like Evernote? I did not know that all of the SNotes were synced to the Samsung Cloud Servers.

I used version 1.74 and had it installed using Wondershare MobileGo. It worked just fine, but like someone mentioned in another post... you can see the phone number, but no name. It does work just perfect for conversating.
I even upgraded my phone version of Tablet Talk it it worked. It would just relay the that the two are diff versions, but other than that no big deal.
Good Luck!

If you installed it with Wondershare then I'm not sure what the issue would be. I know mine ran fine. The times it would crash is if I clicked on the contacts generic pic. Sorry, all I can say is try it again, make sure you have the right version or maybe try another version or wait for them to perfect it I guess. .

Massive Galaxy Apps update

Went to Galaxy app store and checked under "My Apps" I had updates for messages, Bixby Vision, Live Messages and about 8 or 10 other apps. They weren't there yesterday, so you all might want to check. I'm not sure what's different yet, but it was a hell of a lot of updates.
Thanks for heads up, here's what I got

Yep and it broke my subs black theme for messages. I had to uninstall reboot and reinstall. All good again. I get concerned when they update the UI because subs applied can crash the UI then we need a factory reset.
touchwiz also updated. the new drop down menu in home screen settings might be new for some people but I downloaded a previous apk version from sammoble.com that already had the notification pull down option. FYI sam mobile uploads most of the apks a lot quicker then Samsung lol.

I chose to map a single press using a Bixby Quick Command. It's setup like this: What you say to Bixby "Google Assistant", What Bixby does "open assistant". It seems to work just fine.
I haven't received the update yet on my Note 9. Even went into the Galaxy Store and no updates are found.
I have the tmobile note 9 on oreo 8.1. I went to galaxy store and did the updates then pressed the Bixby button to open the app. Then pressed the three dots then pressed settings and picked what I wanted the button to do.
Yay....

Check the Galaxy Store application. Go into it's settings and enable notifications for app updates and also look at your "My Page" and you will see the "Update" section which will list all of your pre-installed Samsung apps that have available updates. The "All" section is all of your apps installed from the Galaxy Store.

What?
Step in the right direction, but you are forced to enable the single press of the button (either to bixby or app action) and this is not good as it will lead to unwanted app/bixby launches.

Any way to get the screenshot with single press Bixby button. I tried but it gives me a voice command and when screenshot is taken you can see "take a screenshot " message on the top of the screenshot. Any workaround?
Hi,
Is there a way I can remap the Bixby Key to toggle b/w silent & loud on off screen?
