I just have a couple of dumb questions.
Do the motions being active consume battery?
Do I have to engage anything before tapping my screen to send a file to another phone? (or is having that check box enabled1 enough?) also is the Galaxys3 the only phone compatible with that feature?
The commercial where the guy just swoops a document from his phone to the tv... What's the process for that and I imagine it only works with certain tvs after an annoying registration /setup process.
Are they working on improving svoice or is that not a huge priority
Is there a voice dialer like on froyo that doesn't require the internet to do phone functions? I don't like relying on 3g.
I'm sure I'll think of more, but I apologize if this is in the wrong thread. Please just let me know and I'll copy paste to the right one.

You have to turn on NFC and s beam then go to gallery or something to the file you want then put the phone back to back and then then phone will say touch screen to beam
You can get Google now with the offline pack. Its in the themed and app section
We don't really know what Samsung's priority are. With Google now out we can only hope Samsung trys to stepup their game

If someone knows of a better way than this, please post. I watch a lot of sports on my phone/tablet and this is the only non-headache way I've found. Firefox not hiding the web address bar when you're on a site and the stream freezing if you choose full screen mode (so I just zoom in until it fills the screen) are both super annoying. Also you have to "tap to load flash" every time you load the page, but other than that it is pretty solid.
It sounds like a pain in the ass but once you get used to what you need to do, it's not so bad. The s-pen is really nice for closing the ads

I know that. But unless I'm doing something wrong, when using Firefox, you need to "tap to activate flash" each time you open Firefox

I'm going to risk posting in the wrong forum in the hopes of getting some more attention on this app...MyScript Notes Mobile. I followed the instructions in this thread and am totally blown away by how functional it makes the Note II. This does require root and a custom recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526433
This app vindicates every hope I had for the S Pen. I can scribble a quick note and export the text straight into GTasks, or a host of other apps. I can write page after page and then convert just the parts I want straight into text by circling it. The management of notebooks and pages is simple and intuitive. I liked S Notes OK, but this is in another class.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHHO--XZlqM
The fun part of this is the fact that S Notes is made by the same company that made this app. There is also talk that this app may show up in the Samsung app store before the end of the year, so those of you that are unwilling to root may get a version of this app, too!
Wow that's so cool I'll definitely try it

Follow the link to the video. The handwriting conversion can be real-time without writing in another area of the screen, or it can be converted later. I know it seems a small thing, but it is not.

Here's a Note2 safe version of the app to flash. The only difference is that the script is modified and rewritten to accommodate the file system of the Note2 as opposed to the Xoom, which it was originally written for. Basically, this version is tested and set up for the Note2 specifically.
I need a few of you guys to test it out before I post a thread for it. This app works 100% for me.
Removed download. Visit this thread to play with the work in progress.
Many thanks! Downloaded and flashing now. Comments to follow.

Installed fine, but the wheel that you use to convert text is missing. Actually, it is there, I just cannot see it. Also, the first couple of characters are a very heavy pen weight, but then it gets real thin.
Just backed up all apps with TiBu and planning on a factory reset to try again.

It's the same thing in the Xoom version. The only difference here is the script isn't formatting your caches to yaffs.
Factory reset did the trick. The wheel is back. The pen weights are still goofy, but it works just fine. I'll keep you posted, but it is sure nice to have the text wheel back.

I was trying to start up a content transfer with someone else's phone. I used an HTC One and they had Samsung Galaxy S3s. It would show the touch to transfer screen and it would just open the playstore to an item which didn't exist. It doesn't matter what they tried to transfer.

It wouldn't send me the little note to send off / receive without it on. Issue is, every time I receive something, it just shows up as a Google Play Link. When I try to send something, it just stops after I touch to beam.

My buddy has an S3 and I have the One, and in order for it to register I had to hold my phone about as low as his camera, but it worked like a charm. Then again, I sent him a few contacts and some pics for jokes.
Wife and I have GS3 and ONE, we send pics back and forth all the time.

You can NOT send playstore apks via NFC, it will always show a playstore link, this is to prevent sharing of paid apps.

No, not playstore apps or links. For example, friends on GS3 with gallery app opened to send a link. It just constantly wants to open a nonexistent item in the playstore. Sorry if I am unclear. I am thankful for all the help thus far.

Thanks. I think I actually figured it out. Anyone else wondering, anyone with Samsung phones transferring to the HTC One, the Samsung user needs to turn of their S Beam, because it tries to use the Samsung branded gallery app to transfer pictures.

So I updated my mother's Note 2 with 4.3. The phone is stock and everything, my problem is and made real angry is that I wanted to show off some of the new feature that it has. So went to group play app to do the video sharing, but when I see, there isn't any video sharing to my surprise!!! What happen? I saw all those demo showing off the video sharing option with a Note 3 and a Note 2!
I was testing that out (half heartedly) with my girls GN3 and my newly OTA'd GN2 and couldn't get them to detect with the scan... just off work so I'll try a few more things and see if I can get anywhere
Edit:
So far no dice... double checked device status and Knox counter... everything is good. I did turn on my phone afterwards and noticed several app updates (most were for newer 4.3 apps) but not for group play or Samsung link...
As of right now I wasn't able to get my girls GN3 and my GN2 to recognize each other through any of the apps when referring to videos... (we also have a Samsung TV but no dongle yet)... was able to get music to play on both devices though...
Some things that I've noticed:
1. Her group play app is about half the size of mine (even though she has the GN3 and I'm on the GN2)
2. Her Group Play app is actually an older version than mine
3. Her Group Play app has an option of video sharing where mine doesnt... I only have music/documents/etc... but no video tab to share
Really the whole thing makes no sense lol... but ill continue looking around for answers... pretty stumped at this point as, like I said, they sync for music, just not videos
Something tells me the solution could be as simple as a setting, as boring as waiting for the app to update, or as complex as requiring a dev to manipulate resolution errors/compatibility issues etc and creating a work around... really no idea at this point

This apk doesnt run as such and wont appear in your app drawer. It seems to act as more of a plugin for group play.

Did you bother to try this in the end?
If you dont trust my file you can always download a stock N3 firmware and rip the apk from that yourself

Okay after playing around and trying to figure out how to do this I find out how. You need a smart TV that's connected to your home network. That can recognize media files from your phone. Like a media server. I have a Sony TV so I went to settings turned on near by devices and allowed my TV to look in my phone. Then go to wherever on your TV to find the media connection and browse from your TV.
