[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hypermedic:
How do u know if polish or english? mine is english and the box all in english in addition to the user manual and other stuff all written in english

Got it fron handtec second batch
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SNiiPE_DoGG:
Mine (from handtec delivered nov7) is definitely UK version, it still lists market items in pounds and sometimes thinks I'm using UK language.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DMax99:
Because everything on the box is in Polish. It's a bit strange that handtec have their second batch as the UK version.. because thought i the Note was rolled out later after UK?!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DMax99:
ok...after a day of wait....finally opened the box.

I had my old dell streak next to it....and...WOW....the screen is definitely BIGGER than the Streak. Much WIDER, but thinner and lighter. (It does feel a bit cheaper than I expected it to be though I must say)

Some how it knows what language I need already, which is English(AUS)....Don't know how it knew...but it did....SMART!

The screen is much brighter and vibrant than the streak....and PHEW...I don't think there's anything wrong with the screen...thanks goodness.

I then decided to try and make the display to full brightness...when I got into the setting section and I was like...What The?! The brightness was set all the way down??? But the screen looks so bright and beautiful already...wow :)

It ran really smoothly and had no lags...

So, I'm loving it atm...hopefully the impression will stay that way :P

ps. the phone was made in Korea :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] TomTomczyk:
Except of the language in the box, is there anything wrong with the devices?

I'm asking, because I would like to have Polish version too :D But only, if it's like normal Note, without any issues.

By the way - if you want some translation, looking forward to help ^^

Maybe it is a new policy of Samsung, to make their customers more open minded, and encourage them to learn new languages :D kidding. Regards.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DMax99:
lol...maybe...but i'm pretty sure that my language learning talent is "zero" :P...

I have only had a play on the phone last night for about 30 mins....still waiting for the screen protector to come to use it as my primary phone. In that 30 mins or so, everything seems to be PERFECT, including the SCREEN. So it should be alright :) It's a GREAT phone! :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Xaddict:
Polish version is fine

I have the Polish version and it is fine.

Only problem is I couldn't read the quickstart guide, but I got by :)

I changed the language to English and it all works fine.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] koniakki:
I don't even care if it comes with Swahili or Hieroglyphics main language! :D

As long as I can immediately change it to English I'm all good!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bigmout:
Or take a picture and use Google Goggles to translate!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ptok:
I got the Polish version from Negri (highly recommended)

Very funny that when you first start, the 'press me to change languages' button is in Polish. Duh.

I got rid of the annoying Plus+ startup and shutdown animations and sounds ASAP. Then removed all the apps whose names were hard-wired to Polish.

Love the phone. Love the pen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DMax99:
hmmm...that's what's weird about my phone....it was already in English and when it came to the option of choosing the language, it was already on the English(AUS) option. Maybe they've (handtec) already opened and turned on my phone before??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] koniakki:
The seal was ripped when you arrived it? Not very hard to put a new one but I wouldn't expect anything like that from a company like that.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] TomTomczyk:
Plus is a polish telecommunication operator, for now the only one, who sells Note on contract in Poland, but only for business clients. Contracts are as expensive as for SGSII, so kind of a bargain.

What surprises me is a fact, that some company in USA or Australia sells phone from polish operator. Usually it was from another side - some polish company sold devices with AT&T branding, etc. :D

Cheers and enjoy the Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DMax99:
nuh...it came sealed...so I think it's just me being paranoid :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] koniakki:
I know the feeling... :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] markhind:
Does youre version connect to Kies in mtp mode.

i bought exactly the same item looks Polish version all intact etc, but does not connect to Kies to check for upgrade.

is it because my note is a polish version.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DMax99:
looking at the box again, the sticker that says "if seal broken, do not accept". there are 2 of them on one side of the box. they are on top of each other, smaller one at the bottom, both say the same thing. I still have a feeling that they might have opened it. is it possible that they opened it and then put another bigger sicker on top of it?

just wondering if others have 2 stickers on top of each other too :confused:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] markhind:
Just checked mine from handtec, mines exactly as you say, two stickers overlayed.

Does yours connect to kies. Bit worried that the polish version will never be recognised by uk kies in mtp mode for updates etc?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] TomTomczyk:
Do you have "Plus+" branding?

Or just polish instruction, manual, box, but without plus starting screen, apps, etc?

I'm not an expert in this matter, but some polish mobile technology blogger (like Hemorrdroids.net who made review of Note) also informed few days ago, there are problems with Kies and polish Note (without + branding).

Maybe it is just to early?

Regards

By the way, have you read this thread?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] markhind:
I don't have the + branding, thanks for the info. I think you're probably right its too early.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] the red krawler:
My Galaxy Note is from Handtec, and was in a box covered in Polish writing.

First time I turned it on (after 6 hour charge) it was already in English, with the locale set to English (UK). As soon as I'd entered my PIN it retrieved the time as +10 and all.

I used my phone for its first full-day use today and it was flat by about 4pm (from 6am) which is a bit of a worry. Admittedly I used GPS for ~45 minute car trip (and how AWESOME does Navigation look on that screen!), and took a lot of photos... but I didnt feel I'd used it much more than my Huawei X5 on a normal day which would last through to 6/7pm at night before whinging about battery. Given the giant battery of the Note I was sorta expecting... more :\

Next step is a really thin gel case and screen protected just to provide some protection against scratches of the bezel and screen, and for some extra grip as it really is a giant phone to try using one handed.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DMax99:
I don't know...I haven't tried it yet...will try it tomorrow night after my second exam :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] peare:
For the last 4 days I have been in Paris and on Saturday came the first batch to Fnac Montparnasse. The demo unit started with cyrillic alphabet. Mine strated with French out of the box, I changed it to English right away. I hadnt noticed whether it was Polish or not since I never read the manuals, but since the pda is xxkj4 but the build no is pokj1 I suppose it is Polish. I am not using it much, for neither a case nor a screen protector is available yet, and I drop things all the time and I already dropped it in my hotel room. I thought I had scratched the sides, but there had been left some tiny plastic strips and when finally peeled off I realized nothing had happened. Anyway I am still using my brand new SGS II and I dont know what I am going to do with it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dave888:
Mine is polish too(it was sealed). who cares? I also waiting for screen protecters. Where can buy it for fast shipment in europe?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DMax99:
Finally have the time to get the phone ROOTED with CWM on it :) It took a while as my laptop didn't do the job so I had to use my desktop after about an hour :(

Anyways...to answer your question....mine DOES connect to Kies...but it says:

"Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies"

...That's a bit disappointing...maybe once ICS is available...it will then say:

"Your device is ready for software upgrading via Kies" :)

I can only hope...

[General Questions and Answers] LordGeek:
Ok .. so right now I have a Motorola Atrix 2 on AT&T, and quite frankly, I am NOT impressed with this phone at all .. the fact that Motorola did not learn from its mistakes from the Motorola Atrix 4G in regards to the memory issues is just pure stupidity.

I'm torn between the 2 new phones that were just released to AT&T .. the HTC Vivid and the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket. Now, I have hammered theweb reading reviews about the 2 phones .. I have gone into the AT&T Store and played with both .. but for unknown reasons, I cannot make up my mind as to which one to get.

I obtained the Atrix 2 from BestBuy in the beginning of November, so I'm currently in the 30 days return policy .. so:

I'm posting this poll to see what other readers suggest as to what would be the best to get next .. please vote, let me know .. and if any questions or comments about the phones .. please post .. the more feedback, the better.

Thank you.
[General Questions and Answers] mtmerrick:
skyrocket, no question about it.
[General Questions and Answers] Dark lord me:
I would have to go with the Skyrocket i've used a raider and well... it feels like ever other HTC phone on the market... they really don't differentiate their products well. The Skyrocket, well it's a Galaxy S II so it has those in common but even though it uses a Qualcomm it's still quite a decent.

I've tried the Raider, The Razar and the SIILTE against each other once or twice already at a store and well the SIILTE beats both of them.

In all I would recommend the SIILTE, Samsung makes good products and are quite speedy in updating their products, HTC well you will get "Well your device can't support sense 4.0 "But it's on your budget device" "so..."
[General Questions and Answers] LordGeek:
PERFECT .. please keep the responses coming :)
[General Questions and Answers] Dark lord me:
Well would you be willing to wait for option 3.

Get a Galaxy Nexus you'll be able to get one next week when they are released you can import one since they already come unlocked. Or they will be released on AT&T pretty soon

Definitely Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket, the specification itself is better than HTC Vivid.

Goto GSMarena and do a comparison of these 2 phone.
[General Questions and Answers] slimslim:
Out of all previous poster prolly only couple actually own the Skyrocket. I was about to buy it but I've changed my mind inside ATT's store after playing almost an hour with both. Any sgs2 user will say "Sammy's the best" and indeed it is, but the Skyrocket has a different CPU and I actually could see the difference. Didn't like the wvga on its 4.5" screen, for some reason the screen on sgs2 looks so much better. If you don't care for 4.5" go with sgs2, otherwise I would go back to the store and play a little more.

Is there a way to print files/pics to a WiFi enabled printer? The HTC Sensation had built in functionality to do this. I was able to print from the browser on the Sensation to my printer on the same WiFi network. Can that functionality be ported to this phone?

[HTC Radar] tai4de2:
(Forking original thread)

I confirmed that the TMOUS Radar *is* capable of 3G on AT&T.

I unlocked it this morning and put in a prepaid AT&T SIM (GoPhone). HTC Connection Setup ran and a few minutes later I was on AT&T with 3G support. The phone recognizes the HSPA+ signal and lights up the indicators with the '4G' label.

The phone's box says it supports UMTS 1900 -- this fact is not listed in any other spec I've seen on-line for the device. That band is only one of the 2 AT&T use for UMTS, so if you are unlucky and have only 850 then 3G/4G probably won't work. Guess AT&T uses 1900 where I am.
[HTC Radar] stillTRE:
Do you know of any way to tell which band at&t uses in various areas?
[HTC Radar] tai4de2:
Sorry, I don't know of any way to know that. I am not an AT&T expert -- knowing whether the phone could be used w/ AT&T 3G was an academic exercise for me just to satisfy curiosity.

Whats the difference between freezing and uninstalling in TiBu
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Earthdog:
Its generally safest to freeze. When a system update gets pushed out many times you have to have all the original apps and bloat installed or it will fail. So to be safe you freeze them and when you get notified there is an update you unfreeze all the apps to be safe.

Hope this makes some sense.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] paparaji:
I am sorry buddy. I am only 3 weeks old in android ecosystem and still trying to figure how to make things little stable. Do I need to root my phone to freeze all these apps? or if i can freeze some without rooting please lemme know how to freeze. thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tejones36:
Yes, you will need root.

To freeze the apps, you need to get the Titanium Backup app in the market. (It's one of those must have tools.) Besides backing up (obviously) you can click on a specific app to get a menu. This menu will have the freeze option. Note that you don't want the long press menu if you just want to freeze an app. Long press brings up a different menu.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xiLLeNtz:
Dumb question: What does freezing these apps do?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kadin:
Freezing the app basically makes the app become completely dormant. It still resides on the phone but the system doesn't see it. It basically hides it from anything that might try to use it. You do need the paid version of Titanium Backup to use it but it's easily worth the minimal cost.

To get rid of the icon you'll have to uninstall the app. It says its not installed because its frozen,the system won't run that app. But the app is still on the phone. I think its best just to leave them frozen.
