I think galaxy note is targeted for specific people.

Personally, I will not buy it, because:

1. it's not nexus (fear of being left behind in terms of updates+features)

2. Too big for my pocket

But I see that it has usefulness that I heard web browsing is so much better due to bigger screen. The bigger screen allows reading, watching and typing better.

About stylus, I think its a gimmick. Unless you have something like iPad size (which still limited that you have to write like you are using a crayon), writing in touch screen is cumbersome.
[Epic 4G General] ugothakd:
It's freaking huge. Have you ever held an iphone? Yeah, I'm comparing apples to oranges, but the phone is huge.
[Epic 4G General] adelmundo:
The Dell Streak, compared to this, is longer and thicker, but the Note is wider. There are some videos up on YouTube with people putting the Note in their pocket and making calls and it's really not that big. Heck most cordless landline phones are bulkier than the Note.

Also if it gets ICS with the new version of TW that is less inttusive , that would be awesome.

AT&T has had the note for over a month. Used it for 2 weeks...it was OK. Barely fits in the back pocket and made my Epic feel like a toy. AT&T Hspa 4G is the biggest crap going but once LTE is spread out more it may be useable. The CDMA version will be called The Journal and rumored to go to Verizon and maybe Sprint.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] segelfreak2:
Hello there,

I already talked a little bit about this topic in the general forum. The thread can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1324219

I think that this would be an easy, straight forward task. The program should work like this:

1) Start the program

2) The function MI_SetStaticNav (inside gps.s5pc210.so) is executed and the static navigation mode is switched OFF

3) The function MI_GetStaticNav is executed to check if the new status is really "OFF"

4) Display the new status and exit the program

So, all which has to be done is to load the /system/lib/hw/gps.s5pc210.so file in the android program and execute the two functions.

Sadly, I have no clue of programming and therefore I would like to ask if some of you could help me by writing this little program. It would really be a great benefit for the GPS part of the SGS2, because with static navigation the GPS part is nearly unusable if you are walking (you can see this in the image I posted in the other thread).

So, I would be glad if someone could help me out of this.

Best regards and many thanks in advance,

Chris

Hi, I have developed a tool called GPS Control for SGS2. You can check it out on market. It does exactly what you need. However, the device needs reboot when changing SN settings. It requires root access and works only on I9100.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] offconrad:
I rooted when the phone first came out, did the forever root method days ago, was using ROM manager to boot into recovery and BAM!!! phone went completely dead. I had just taken it off the docking station about 15 minutes prior, had a full charge, tried swapping with my original battery, nothing...took it to verizon store, they couldn't do anything and ordered me another phone to come on Tuesday. What do you guys think??? I haven't installed any roms, radio changes, NOTHING!!!... pulled the battery a hundred times, nothing comes on
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
Dude, first of all, if you mess up your phone by rooting it, DO NOT take it to Verizon. Cardinal rule #1.

Second, a quick view of the threads here and you would have found this:

That's the thing

I can't get to fastboot or any boot screen. Phone is completely lifeless, doesn't even show when plugged in, tried multiple chargers, batteries, everything...nothing.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tivo7:
Sorry bro, sounds like a hard brick to me. if you cant power it on and holding VolumeDown+Power or holding both volume buttons+power does nothing at all, you're hard bricked (you cant fix it)

You need to buy a new device. Tell verizon you lost it or somebody stole it or something, but DO NOT take it into verizon.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jjrozek:
Happened to me too over the weekend. Was playing Greedy Spiders and the phone froze. Rebooted and got the dual core screen twice then kaput. Tried everything and it won't turn on. Did some research and this isn't a one off problem. Took it VZW and they replaced but I have to wait for it to ship. I love how if you are buying the phone, they have them at the store, if you BOUGHT the phone and need it replaced due to warranty you have to wait.

Are you trying to tether with 4G? I had the insta-reboot bug with wifi tether with 4G active.

I ended up flashing Necrosan's native hotspot hack. Keep in mind, if you flashed the SRF 24hr/AM,PM "fix", then flashing the hotspot hack will revert that change. Reflashing the time fix will then break the ability to tether on 4G.

[Motorola Droid 3] gkitab:
Hey guys I have found another tweak. In our build.prop I noticed ro.mediacapture.torchintensity=40. Upping this increases the flash brightness in the camcorder. Also ro.media.capture.flashintensity=70 upping this increases the flash brightness in camera.

I confirmed they made a difference. Tried last night taking a picture at stock setting, then a picture with it upped to 100. Then did the same with the camcorder.

Try raising those values to what you feel comfortable with and let me know if they have helped you guys.

WARNING! Obviously too high would kill battery quicker if taking many shots or long videos. But this definitely works.

Heres an interesting concept. Can we adjust a setting to get 8mp widescreen? If possible would be amazing! Havent been able to figure this one out though.
[Motorola Droid 3] Izeltokatl:
Be careful turning the flash to high.you could burn the led out.
[Motorola Droid 3] gkitab:
I hear ya, but considering led last alot longer than regular lights I wouldn't worry than much. Besides that why we have warranties.
[Motorola Droid 3] dpwhitty11:
They may last longer under normal circumstances, but oh man can they die fast. Be VERY careful with how bright you make it and for how long it stays on for. You an burn out the diode very quickly.
[Motorola Droid 3] gkitab:
Dont have to put it at 100 if you dont want to. Just pointing out that it most definitely helps. Make it what you feel confortable. It definitely improves low light video and pictures.
[Motorola Droid 3] 640k:
upping the brightness wouldn't be so bad if there was a way to deflect the light. taking camcorder pictures with the flash on is great in most any light situation, but because it's a direct light, you get washed out colors and red eye problems.

i wish there were an easy to deflect the light too.
[Motorola Droid 3] gkitab:
Well its adjustable so you guy can fine the setting that best suits you guys. Keep in mind its only a phone if we want better quality we should use cameras. That being said, upping these values at least gets us a respectable picture or video in low light, a picture worth keeping that doesn't just get deleted after we go back and check it.:)

Hi,

I am using CM7.1 B^N version and i want to use speech to text service of google, which usually show up when i press the mic icon in the keyboard. now the thing is i see no mic icon in the keyboard and i dont know how to enable it and if i try to download and use iris from the market it says no voice input service found and stuff like that.

i did the search and found that i need https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.voicesearch to work on my mobile but when i try to install it it says (This app is incompatible with your Motorola MB860).

Any suggestion what to do ?

EDIT: i have found why i was unable to download it cos it is the part of gapps and i have skipped or installed small version of apps and that dont have it. just extracted the apk from full version gapps and now its working just fine.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jibraldor:
Try downloading a keyboard from the Android Market. There are many good free ones. This should solve your problem if the keyboard you download has the speech recognition key on it. If not, download other keyboards which do have it (look at the photos of the keyboards before downloading).

If this solves your problem, don't forget to leave a thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luckylewie:
Hi there..

I am generally very happy with my S2, which i purchased from Phones 4 U in England, and is using Vodafone sim.

I am a noob unfortunately, but i do know what Wifi is, and i know that when i am connected to my home wireless network, i can browse online (stock or dolphin browser) use the FB app, and marketplace etc all nice and smooth.

The problem appears to be when i am not connected to a Wifi network, it is usually very very slow do display data, and more often than not, it will say "unable to connect", or "there was a problem".

Also, how important is the fact that i bought in the UK? my phone says..

GT-I9100

2.3.3

I9100xxKE7 (baseband v.)

(kernel v.) 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF3-CL276555 root@DELL101 #2

Build number GINGERBREAD.XWKF3

It is a great phone apart from when i'm out and about data is rubbish! I am on a £36 a month contract.

Google maps/navigation also slow to find me. maybe cause i'm in the countryside at the start of my journey?

many thanks for any help from geniuses and sorry if this answer is well known/ already there... it's just that many questions seem to relate to korean/US/non UK versions. regards
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonny68:
You mentioned you are in the countryside, chances are the signal is bad it's always usually city's who have the best signal i highly doubt it's anything to do with your SGSII.

ps - i purchased my SGSII in the UK and have never had any major issues with it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
Wow, back to basics eh? Well, the speed of your mobile network depends on the coverage in your area. Generally if you're in the UK countryside, you're probably looking at GPRS, which is painfully slow.

Go to http://www.vodafone.co.uk/vodafone-uk/personal-coverage/ enter your postcode and choose "Internet and email", if it's "Slow speed", that's where your problem lies.

It's not a problem with the Samsung Galaxy S II, or with Android, it's probably a problem with your network operator.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skimminstones:
im on the london/kent borders, can only really get 2g in my flat but outside the signal is fine. like others have said it will be because you are in a rubbish signal area, or you have put the phone into 2g only mode. Also you cant compare your wifi speed with normal signal speed. Until we start getting 4g rolled out it will always be slower
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luckylewie:
well many thanks for quick replies. The vodafone signal map thing states that i have yeah either variable or rubbish signal.

Here's an interesting concept.

Can we adjust a setting to get 8mp widescreen? Either in the build.prop where we can adjust the flash or in Ticamproperties I think in the etc folder.

If possible would be amazing! Haven't been able to figure this one out though.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
When you make a 8MP picture widescreen it becomes 6MP...

A 8MP widescreen picture would require it to be wider than 3264 pixels which I think is not possible
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
The only problem with your idea is the fact that 8MP resolution (something around 3264x2448) has a different aspect ratio than the Droid 3's screen (16:9) You won't be able to get a widescreen 8MP image unless you manage to stretch the photo out, not sure if that would ruin the image.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
It would....
[Motorola Droid 3] dpwhitty11:
8 megapixel widescreen, by definition, does not/will not exist.
[Motorola Droid 3] The Solutor:
Nothing will prevent to build a 16/9 sensor with 8 Mpixel, simply most of the sensors are still 4/3 or 3/2, and the droid's one is not an exception.
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
You could do something similar to 8MP, although it's not going to be the 8MP pixel resolution.
[Motorola Droid 3] The Solutor:
Any image with 8 millions of pixel is an 8Mpixel image, even a stripe made of 1x8,000,000 pixels.

It's different when you name a format like VGA, qVGA, qHD and so on.

Those definitions are imping not only the number of pixels but also the aspect ratio.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
8MP widescreen picture would need to be around 3760*2115. The sensor can't take a 3760 pixel wide image in 1 shot, so....(or that tall for that matter)
[Motorola Droid 3] The Solutor:
For the record Omnivision has already an high megapixel sensor which is natively 16/9.

It's a 4320x2430 (10Mpixel) sensor

http://www.ovt.com/download_document.php?type=sensor&sensorid=101

Maybe we will see it on droid 5 or whatever...

Hi, looking for some help with a soft-bricked SGS i9000.

It is bricked to the point that it only shows the 'Phone--!--Computer' when switched on, or when attempting to access Recovery Mode.

[Thunderbolt General] nbdysreal:
If you originally used the Revolutionary root method, its not just flashing a new hboot, as its a hboot that doesn't allow it to be easily overwritten. This stops you from accidentally flashing a s-on hboot at a time you didn't mean to (most likely through ruu). If you did that, you have to adb some files to your phone to put a stock s-on hboot on. If you did the old downgrade root method, i would try downloaded the files from somewhere other than where you did this time, and try again.
