Help multitab and pen & write options, question

panonski

Newbie
Hi everybody, I'm the new "Samsung Galaxy Note2" user, and I'm not quite satisfied with some options in it.

First, I must say, that multitab doesn't support many apps, and this is pretty sad. Not even calculator, or dialer.
So I rooted it, and activate app which supporting adding more aps called "Multiwindow manager" ( phone must be rooted )
But,
after that it was only few more aps to add, so technically I've done nothing there, worth to mention
Question is,
WHY IS SO LITTLE ORIGINAL APS ( for others from market, I know the answer )
IN NOTE2 SUPPORTED IN MULTI WINDOW OPTION??
It's kind of little stupid. So powerfull machine, and in multiwindow you have 10 aps, and you want to combine with others, but they are not there.

Now I have two galleries ( original and quickpic ) one internet browser ( which I don't use, because it's buggy and show me some kind of darker screen )
and some other stuffs are also duplicate by meaning of what they do. Silly.

Second also weird qustion is
WHY THE PEN WRITING APPS, LIKE "S NOTE" DOESN'T HAVE AN OPTION TO DISABLE MAIN PHYSICAL BUTTON AND ALSO TWO capacitive ( back and menu ) WHEN YOU ARE IN WRITING MODE, WITH PEN ONLY ??
Someone from Samsung obviously mean that I will hold the Pen in my hand in the air for all time, and I will write in first two rows. HOW STUPID IS THAT ?VERY.

Solution from Samsung is to keep the head of the pen so closed to screen and it will automatically disable back button when you write. You can On or Off this function.
It work's, but it's a poor solution because I often raise my pen from screen, and yet it's only for S NOTE, not for other pen writing aps.
And also MENU button is't included in passing by hitting it by mistake

So, I check and download more writing aps, and in one I found they solved this ( but just in half ) with option to disable back when you write. Superb, but MENU button still can press, and by by.

Question here, is :
Is there any option to solve this.


THANK YOU

As far as the 1st part, there are hundreds of apps that support Multi Window without any mods, & more being added all the time. Samsung left it up to the developers to add the feature. It's just a matter of adding a few lines of code. If you'd like to see a list of compatible apps, check out this site.
