- android 4.3 s note upgrade
Sir, you are a legend. Thank you for sharing this as I had the same issue with my N7105T, despite having received the updated SNote from the Samsung Apps store. I tried creating a new note by simply pulling out the pen as per normal but only by doing what you did with the widget seemed to actually cure the problem. Thanks for saving us the hassle of a factory reset! :good:

Same problem here, S-Note and Quick Commands crashing like a dog on upgrade to 4.3 (device N7100).
Tried to delete app data/cache and restart, but not working.
The 'solution' posted by Myrith only allows to start the S-Note application, but the Productivity Tools button (equations, shapes, etc...) CRASH THE APP ANYWAY ALL THE TIME.
Imagine if Nokia had upgraded its device Nokia XpressMusic and then music app would crash everytime, so you can't listen music. You'd say 'XpressMusic, my ass!'.
So, now we have a device named 'Note' with a spoiled Notes app. Yeah, great work!
WHAT A F... SHAME, SAMSUNG! WHAT A F... SHAME!!

New version of SNote is on Samsung apps. Version from note 3 that it's working including import and settings

I looked in Samsung Apps just now and i didn't see a new version in there in the updates. Do you have a link to it on the store? or a version number than i could compare with the installed version on my phone to see if i already have it? I can open it with the S-pen, but i can't get to the settings. This only began after i cleared the dalvik cache this afternoon when trying to get the phone to stop wigging out after upgrading to 4.3 ota (which didn't clear the caches before).
This is SNote version 3. Originally it was only on note 3. Now it's also on note 2. This version with red icon works OK.

When I try to follow that link i am redirected to http://apps.samsung.com/mars/main/getMain.as?COUNTRY_CODE=USA and when i try and search for "S Note" in the search bar i get nothing but a bunch of fluff apps that are not the official samsung apps.
I got this app from my phone:
- open app: Samsung Apps
- search: s note

I tried that before i asked for the link. Same fluff comes up in the app that comes up on the webpage.
I had a problem with the "new" s note app crashing (the one for the note 3) on my note 2. I tried everything, especially everything in this thread and nothing worked. I couldn't even get past the set-up screens (choose notebook cover and default page template and sync settings, etc), it would constantly crash when I'd hit start. I found a random solution somewhere that I didn't think would work because it was entirely unrelated, but it DID work!
Went into settings> language & input> samsung keyboard settings> input languages (here it told me I needed to update the english language pack, so I did), back out of settings after updating the language pack, close all running/recent apps, and then try running s note again. This time it should work. It did for me. I have no idea why the language pack for the keyboard would interfere with s note, but on mine it did because I tried literally everything else I could think of to find a solution to the problem. This was the only thing that got me up and running (and didn't require a full reset!)
So, if you're having issues with s note, try updating your samsung keyboard language pack and it just might work

Sigh, didn't work for me. Can't believe they still haven't come up with a fix. Such an expensive phone and I can't even get their snote app working.

Based on your suggestion, I pulled out my S pen and created a new memo from my S pen page. Works great, now! Thanks!
Big thanks to absinthesummer. Your advice to download update of English language on my N7105 did the trick. I downloaded the updated language list then went into the language setting and updated both english uk and english us and ticked both. Following a restart I took the pen out and it ran snote from the start. Now working fine and I can access my old notes again.I had a problem with the "new" s note app crashing (the one for the note 3) on my note 2.

Awesome! I'm glad it worked for you. It worked on my i317 too and I thought it could help some who can't get theirs working through traditional means.
Have just received a new update to 4.3 on my note II N7105.
Snote started crashing again.
I did the language update again and presto it's working again.
when you get the update language warning box and click ok to update you should see an update box next to the languages ticked.
Select these before you come out and the download bar will be seen.
I thought it had updated by just saying ok to update. It doesn't update until you hit the button.
I've got uk english and us english downloaded and ticked.
samsung clearly still haven't sorted this yet in the new update.
I can't get my s note app to update
I have a Galaxy Note 2 N7105 and when I go to update the app it says "Installation Failed (-24)" and it just won't install at all. I am running a H3G Branded handset, unlocked and 4.4.2 with S Note (old app). It will let me install any other app except from this S Note update!!! Please help!!

Here's how I got mine to finally work:
- Add the "S Note (direct) 4 x 1" widget to your screen.
- Tap on the widget's pen button to create a new note.
- Exit out of S Note, and from now on, you can open the app from the regular app icon. You can also remove the widget that you added.

However, S Note application is crashing with error message "Unfortunately, S Note has stopped". I had similar problem with Talktatone. However, I resolved it by clearing the cache & data. But same solution is not working for S Note. Any solution ??
