I wonder if there are any possibilities or additional features with our new bluetooth Spen ?
At the moment we can use it for camera, browser, video player, music .... but it's only for stock samsung apps or gapps.
So is there any app making it usable with other apps ? Like play/pause in MxPlayer or VLC
Or maybe some other uses i didn't imagine. Maybe with root ?
Thanks for your answers

Is there a build of MIUI that keeps the features?
Like,
Samsung Codecs (Divx, Xvid MKV) + Samsung video player
Samsung Browser that supports flash, Camera app that lets me use my external storage
I Really do like the MIUI Rom but they have removed everything I love about the Galaxy S over other Android phones

Miui didn't remove anything, they just didnt work it out yet Miui is bulid on cm base, and because samsung has a closed source code it isnt that easy to implement those things that you are missing.
As Player i use QQPlayer which is able to play all file formats. (flv, avi, mp4....)
And the location for the pictures? Come on.
Copy your pictures from time to time on your external SD and the problem is gone...
As browser you have to use Dolphin Mini which supports Flash and all other things like gestures, bookmark sync, fullscreen and a very good speed...
MiUi is great, smooth and beautifull.
I would like to list few problems that i encounter after flashing the ICS-beta3 ROM through nvflash to my dell streak 7...
1. on press the wake button, before unlocking if i press the wake button again, the tablet freezes.
2. Titanium backup doesnt seem to work
3. bluetooth doesnt work properly
4. trebuchet doesnt work if the persistent search bar is turned off
5. LED too doesnt seem to work
6. few apps seem to ve lost compatibility
All said... DJ_Steve et al are doing an highly commendable job... thanks guys!
People do share your experience with the new ROM, any bugs, cool features, work-arounds....
Netflix does not stream video, just audio
also my .wma files are not being played by the music player any more and the power led doesnt work too
Tried it today, looks promising. Interface is pretty and seems a lot faster and more responsive than honeycomb. I switched back to honeycomb only because video playback was choppy. Something to look forward to for sure.
Mad props to DJ_Steve and other people who are contributing.
As for the video thing use a app called mobo player get fro the market it's free and if you run in it you tell it run the video file in soft-decode mode. And the video and audio is great. No Mater what kind of encoded file I give to pplay.
indeed the build in action is snappy.
also i ve been using mx player for video playback, i find it quite good.
Hi everybody,
I'm use to run in the afternoon and yesterday I tried to use my OB like MP3 player. unfortunaly, the songs start lagging after 5/10 seconds they started. I've disabled all gestures, without any result.
PS: I've the stock V30B 4.0.4 LG ICS
Does it working normal until yesterday?
1. try another music player
2. find if you have a bloatware,disbale it.

Sincerely I wouldn't be sure because I tried to use OB like mp3 player for the first time yesterday. So I'm going to follow your advice: try another music player. Any suggestion? maybe Apollo?
I don't know if I have or not a bloatware: from the task manager I don't see any strange software. Are there some programs/software that allow you to see if you have/n't these bloatware?
thanks

Power amp , Player Pro, Rocket Player, Double Twist, Winamp, Clean Music Player... and more you can try.
I love Power amp. In CM rom i used Apollo, in ICS i used stock player (because Dolby Mobile)
A list of removable app here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2032668
But I dont think it make stock music play lag. But you can remove some to get best performance.
Also, you can try some ICS based ROM in Dev section.

I've tried CM, IZS, Zeus 7, ice-boom... and I've the problem with all of them. Then I think it is a matter of SD card. I'll change it. thx
Since the Note 5 I have been trying to use more native Samsung apps to see if they are better than the alternatives. I truly love Samsung internet browser for example. So I ended up purchasing poweramp when I had the note 7 and I can't remember why. I am think that Samsung music didn't do something that I wanted so I used poweramp instead. Today I downloaded Samsung music and I can't seem to figure out if it has been update or something, but it seems to work great.
Tldr... is PowerAmp better than Samsung Music , if so why.
Thanks for your time.

Bro i'm drinking heavy right now but mann. Power Amp is so better than Samsung music, It's better than any player really. Finds HD pictures for songs automatically and even album covers , has good scanning features ( even though i turn it off ), Has BASS and alot of EQ options, Has the crossfade, dope skins. It just has so much better options and has always been my go to. Power Amp, Nova Launcher and Swiftkey bro are the apps i install as soon as i get a new phone or new ROM.
Poweramp is good all around and easy to navigate. Neutron is good but has complicated and limited UI. Use FLACs to get the most out of your listening.
In my opinion PowerAmp is much better than the Samsung Music.... it has a lot of tweaking for sound enhancements and the application's interface.

I've been using samsung devices from when the android era started to when I bought Asus Rog 2,
And I think that samsung music is the most simple and featured music player of all the available ones.
So I checked all the ported samsung music apps available out there but none seems to be working with the device.
Can anyone help please?
I was in the same state a few months back. Samsung's music player app cannot be ported to other devices, unless it's part of the Galaxy lineup.
I searched for an alternative and ended up using Poweramp.
It has a really good looking and customizable UI and looks awesome with 120hz display.
Try poweramp

Samsung music works here. I used it for a while but uninstalled due to ads. Try Poweramp as others suggest or use VLC.
Thanks guys.
Just bought the Poweramp, it turns out it's really good.
Thanks again for the suggestions

PowerAMP is great, and there are other apps honestly i would consider are leagues better than most stock apps.
Noteable ones i can think of are.
- PowerAMP (as you already know)
- BlackPlayer EX (tones of customization and audio control)
- Retro Music Player (very modern, well designed and has audio control)
I tried PowerAMP for a while and found it drained battery faster than the other apps but if you don't have any battery problems its an amazing app. personally i have stuck to BlackPlayerEX because i love the customistion options and the UI is clean and because i usually always carry alot of songs (1000+) on me its got the fastest interface as some other apps struggle.

Tbh simplicity of the samsung music app is something that I am still missing.
It's gonna take a while to get used to these 3rd party music players.

if you really want you can just download the samsung music app from the playstore or try sideload the apk
I don't have my ROG Phone 2 yet so i can't test it but i imagine there's no plausible reason it wouldn't work.
