Galaxy Note 3 Tips & Tricks Episode 27: Hidden Feature, Use Action Memo During Phone Calls

<div id="tdncontent"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NGWRAAcvKg" target="_blank"><img onload="tdnembed()" onmouseout="tdnout(this)" onmouseover="tdnover(this)" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-62_0IP5kXk8/UzLn5dQACpI/AAAAAAAAA4A/NUb_wEYuM0U/s685/327.jpg" style="width: 100%;" /><br /><br /> </a></div> Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and the Galaxy Note 2 come with this gem of a feature. Take out the S Pen, and fire up Action Memo (aka Popup Memo), and a new button reveals itself. You can write notes during a phone call, and send a copy to the other person at the end of the line what you have written. Great for business phone calls because all business calls are agreements to be fulfilled by a specific time. And it's not just for business. It'll be great for friends too. If you want to just send them a reminder or an address of the location, you can easily do that in probably the most efficient way imaginable.

For example the indentation for the home button, it may have not been a terrible thing once in a while if your home button gets depressed, but with the note 3, the button is raised higher and it will get pressed accidentally all the time if your case doesn't have an indentation on the flap. The problem is so severe you may determine your case to be more harm than good, especially on battery life. Here is a guide of things to consider when buying a case for the Note 3.

Here's a demonstration that the wifi speeds do actually slow down when bluetooth is enabled and active. So the tip is to turn it off temporarily when you are doing something like streaming videos or uploading large files, especially at cafe's when the internet speed is already not optimal.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 came with a video sharing feature that wasn't compatible with any other devices. Well, it looks like Samsung has had a big change of heart. The S4 updated to Android 4.3 (which I got yesterday) is now 100 percent compatible with the Note 3, and it looks like the Note 2 and even the S3 might support all the features of Group Play in the future. And on top of that, they have made the effort so the experience is better than expected. The devices are aware of the specs of the connected devices, and it all seems to keep that in mind so that the experience is top notch.

It automatically unlocks the screen when you open it because the Galaxy Note 3 comes with a hall sensor that can sense when you open the cover much more reliably than the Note 2 did with the proximity sensor. I really love the fact that it adds functionality to the screen such as step count for the day without having to swipe to walking mate widgets. You can also access phone calls, action memo, music player, and see your notifications through the window of the cover. Is it worth the $60? Watch the review and decide if it is right for you.

Samsung provides an out of the box new way to track your lost phone with Samsung's "Find My Phone" website. It has been around for a while, but it never worked on the Galaxy Note 2, but I'm glad it is now fully functional on the Galaxy Note 3. It also works on the Galaxy S4. I think it is a great website to find phones that you've misplaced or lost, however, if someone has took your phone on purpose, it probably is limited in functionality.

Good news is that it looks like many steps have been taken to improve the interoperability of Evernote with S Note on the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. However, the support for the Galaxy Note 2 hasn't changed. Additionally, when you open up Evernote on the Galaxy Note 3 for the first time, you should be asked if you want Evernote premium free for a year. Evernote Premium does seem to improve interoperability. Unfortunately, yesterday, I received an update that broke some of these functions but hopefully an update will arrive with bug fixes.

I personally haven't seen the difference between the Note 2. I have been skeptical because the power adapter is the same as the Note 2, and the power adapter doesn't have USB 3.0 pins that would make it do anything USB 3.0 related. So I had to see for myself. I got both devices exactly at 7%, fired up both chargers with their respected cables. I disabled every radio, module, and S feature available. I also made sure no apps were running in the foreground. The results surprised me, but not in the way you would expect.

Although Samsung Keyboard may have been great on the Note 2, Samsung Keyboard word prediction was still behind SwiftKey. But if you use SwiftKey, Swype or any other keyboard for that matter, it becomes inconvenient to hand-write input. So what I think Samsung has done is first improve Samsung Keyboard's word prediction. I just tested it today and I really think it is up to par with SwiftKey in the word prediction department. Also, if you still plan on using a 3rd party keyboard, then Samsung has provided you a way to still write your handwriting input. Also, it looks like Samsung has integrated the newest Swype feature which is the continuous input without having to lift your finger off the screen by letting you swipe the space bar. Overall great improvements all around when it comes to handwriting and Samsung Keyboard.

That's what people have been doing for millions of years. Unfortunately, just in the last century, people have started walking far less. So in comes the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. I think it's offering a fun way to encourage more walking in your life. It just keeps a count of your daily steps, and gives you a rewarding notification when you've met the goal of 10,000 steps.<br /><br /> If you haven't upgraded to the Galaxy Note 3 yet, you can download Runtastic Pedometer. It is free, and it uses the gyroscope to count your steps. It is just as good as counting your steps, unfortunately for the Note 2, it will not count the steps when the screen is off. It is a bummer because on the S3, the screen will stay off but the counter still goes up. There is a work around, and it definitely helps. But it also limits the use of the pedometer while you're actively exercising, unlike Walking Mate on the Note 3 where it's just always counting your steps.

Galaxy Note 3 Tips & Tricks Ep. 10: Give S Voice Another Chance, It Is Actually Useful on the Note 3

<div id="tdncontent"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1qz1A-lsuo" target="_blank"><img onload="tdnembed()" onmouseout="tdnout(this)" onmouseover="tdnover(this)" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-oYnK_0X2_BM/UzLnwXieJhI/AAAAAAAAA2I/quu7z8tKiKo/s685/310.jpg" style="width: 100%;" /><br /><br /> </a></div> Let's be honest. S Voice really hasn't been Samsung's best feature. I really couldn't do much with it on the Note 2, and it was pretty much the same on the S4. But S Voice on the Galaxy Note 3 has gotten 3 important updates that make is really useful. One, you can replace that robotic voice to something less unpleasant. That voice was actually one of the main reasons I wasn't using S Voice previously because it was so unbearable. Another thing is that you can say "Hi Galaxy" when the screen is off to turn to call on S Voice. A game changing update in my opinion.. And third S Voice usually didn't read out its answers but now it does. So on the Note 2, you can turn it on in your pocket with the earphone, but you wouldn't know what the answer was. So all these features combined, equals great functionality. I forgot a tip in this video. After you access your phone in your pocket by calling it, you should remember to turn off your screen. And you can do that through the earphone by using 2 apps. Screen off & lock and headset button controller. I highly recommend doing this because if you do not, the capacitive touch screen might be left on because your pocket linings are usually too thin in blocking contact between the screen and your leg.

Galaxy Note 3 Tips & Tricks Episode 9: S Note Improvements and Differences vs Note 2 S Note

<div id="tdncontent"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BR863lNNT2w" target="_blank"><img onload="tdnembed()" onmouseout="tdnout(this)" onmouseover="tdnover(this)" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BX2CwL37b1c/UzLnvoKZBOI/AAAAAAAAA18/qEEHAUTtjNw/s685/309.jpg" style="width: 100%;" /><br /><br /> </a></div> S Note on the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 has gotten a lot of improvements. Some functions have moved completely away from the S Note such as it being a Action Memo (popup note) reader. That has gone completely to the Action Memo app and it works beautifully. Also, there were weird functions in S Memo on the Note 2 such as the math function tool through productivity tools. With some digging, you can still have it recognize the math function and have it solve it for you in wolfram alpha.<br /><br /> I can confirm it has ever feature the Note 2's S Note had, with additional features like a very slick charting tool. Another thingis that it is overall much faster, which may be the biggsest improvement of all.

Galaxy Note 2 Tips & Tricks Episode 89: How to Find Your Lost Phone with Android Device Manager

And one big difference to the consumer is that everyone can find their lost phones from the Google Play store. But the catch is, you would have had this enabled, and for most people, this option is by default not turned off. So here is a tip that shows you how to save it, and a demonstration of how it works.

Galaxy Note 3 Tips & Tricks Episode 8: Video Group Play, Surround Shot Demo, Galaxy Gear

So here is a demo of Video Group Play. It works flawlessly, and I think this feature is coming to the Note 2 and S4 when they get the 4.3 updates. I also show the Surround Shot feature on the camera. You may have seen this feature on the Samsung Nexus 4 a while back. It works well, and I'd be happy to take these pictures while traveling. I also played with the Galaxy Gear and I share my impressions.

Galaxy Note 3 Tips & Tricks Ep. 7: Capture 24p, 60p (@1080p), 4K Video and more with the Note 3

<div id="tdncontent"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hD84oLB3wYE" target="_blank"><img onload="tdnembed()" onmouseout="tdnout(this)" onmouseover="tdnover(this)" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JvpBqPsM9qA/UzLnuXr1HcI/AAAAAAAAA1w/SjsHbI_mksQ/s685/307.jpg" style="width: 100%;" /><br /><br /> </a></div> To my astonishment, the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 captures video at 1080p/24p. Exactly 24.11fps. But don't go throw away all your video cameras yet. Even though the Galaxy Note 3 is capable of capturing video at 50mbits/sec 4K file, the 24p video unfortunately is the standard compressed bitrate around 12-15mbit/sec. But at least it's a start, and another great thing is the video is captured in a non contrasty neutral way, with the exception of the reds. This leaves room for some editing. Definitely an exciting feature for some. The Galaxy Note 3 also captures 1080p/60p video that is very smooth. Also, the 4K video doesn't disappoint. A lot of the times, a promised resolution turns out to be scaled up, but the 4K video is really sharp. The slow motion on the other hand is below average for today's standards, but I think if Samsung wants to, they can probably improve it by firmware because the camera is indeed very capable of much higher bitrates.
