[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Brolloks:
Posted this in another thread but best to do it here...

I got two from Amazon today, looks thinner than the Samsung OEM one, also pulled the sticker and it says 1700 on the back:(, if it is weaker than the stock one it goes back to Amazon for sure
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] freecharlesmanson:
I have them, honestly to notice you would have to really crunch your numbers. It would only provide a 10% diff

However here is a picture of what it says under the battery
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] odub303:
Mine too, although I am not returning them. Even if they are only 1700 mah, there are two of them plus the wall charger with usb port for 35 bucks. Still a great deal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dmrasm:
I peeled off the sticker too and revealed the same thing. Pretty sure it's 1700 mah. I'm disappointed with the purchase partly due to false advertising and also because the charger seems to be poor quality, it works so far though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scoobmd:
Ug, thanks for posting the sticker test guys.

This stinks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:
Actually, the wall charger seems better than the crappy Samsung one I bought for my og epic for $50 retail. It still works but the pins sometimes have to be repositioned forward with a knife to get contact. I can't see that being a problem with this one
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jjr87:
Deal Extreme

I'd actually bought three replacement batteries from DealExtreme [www.DX.com], which is some vendor shipping out of Hong Kong, each marked around $4 a pop, and they've done their jobs. It claimed to have a capacity of 1800mAh like the stock Samsung ones but actually turned out to be 1300mAh (as the label-peeling revealed)...and I discovered this like a year after using them (roughly cycling an avg of 2.5 batteries per day, with moderate-vigorous use; no mobile gaming).

So looking at the so-called "2000mAh," though in reality 1700mAh, ain't so bad. I'm actually grateful to be getting that much for around $15 each; considering the aforementioned, who cares if they lied? (unless this is somehow a double-layered lie..!). Still a deal to me since an OEM 1800mAh for the Epic Touch is closer to $30 each...I'm essentially getting them 50% off @ a meh 100mAh less :good:

I'm having with trouble getting VPN to work on my Nook Color, running cm7.1 encore stable. It seems every time I enter my password to connect, the status changes to 'Connecting...' and freezes the nook. Has anyone gotten VPN to work on CM7.1? I'm outside the US so I would like to run VPN to connect to Hulu and Crackler...

Any help on this would be appreciated
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
BUMP

I'm having the same issue with CM 7.1.0.1 (stable). Like the original poster stated in his post every time I connect to a VPN my Nook Color freezes and I have to do a hard reboot.

I use VPN a lot on my Android devices so it would be great if someone could tell me how I can get it to work on the Nook Color.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swaaye:
If you can use OpenVPN, that works very well for me via the OpenVPN Settings app.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
My provider charges extra for OpenVPN so I'm stuck for now trying to get PPTP VPN to work on my NC.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mateorod:
I straight up have the answer for you. DroidVPN is in beta right now, search them on the forums. They will provide you with VPN for free. They require that you email them for a registration code and that's it.

Highly recommended. Quick connection and nice servers. Download and browsing speed mostly equivalent to what I was getting before.

Give them a try. You will need a tun.ko in your system/lib/module folder, but it is built into the kernel. I just bring that up so it doesn't seem to be a stumbling block to anyone looking into the app.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
I already have a prepaid subscription to a VPN provider (StrongVPN) which allows me to have an IP address from anywhere in the world. I watch shows on the BBC iPlayer which only streams to UK IPs. I also used this before to watch Netflix while in Europe with a US IP.

This DroidVPN sounds fine for folks that aren't needing international IPs although I don't know how many servers they have and what type of speeds one can expect using them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kaaji1359:
So is there, or will there, be a way to artificially increase the screen resolution for the Skyrocket (much like this)?

I just moved from the Atrix and the lower screen resolution is killing me with the 4.5" screen. I feel like I'm using an old persons phone with the ginormous buttons and font, plus I hate not being able to fit as much information onto the screen. I'm considering moving to the Atrix 2 just for the resolution issue :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Fortune090:
Only thing I know of is the app LCD Density Changer from the market. Used it back on my Captivate. Not sure how well it works with the sr, but it was fantastic on my Captivate. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
First thats hillarious. The atrix/atrix 2 are childs toys compared to the skyrocket. But there is an app called lcd density changer on the market. It requires root. , and if you change the settings apps may show up as unsupported in the market. So you would need to change it back to stock when on the android market.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] y2whisper:
I know what you mean OP. came from the atrix as well. u can use LCD density changer. along with the market problems (some updates wont even show up until you revert it back)

the touchwiz and its dialer will end up quite wonky as well as they don't adjust to the new resolution well. your option there will be to use a different launcher app/ dialer app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kaaji1359:
Well then this solved all my problems! I set it to 200 DPI (instead of the default 240 DPI) and it looks so, so much better.

So far no issues except trying to download apps (I think updating works fine though). Anyone use this regularly and find any specific issues, whether it be with certain applications or whatnot?

Thanks again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
even though i dont use density changer i just go edit the build.prop and change it there.

i have no issues with density less the market stuff, and of course it looks like **** on TW. i have to use another launcher to make it look better. i hate the dead space left on TW when you lower the density.

i leave mine at 210.

If anyone knows how to fix this I will call you god!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jade Eyed Wolf:
I'm not entirely sure whether or not Rogers supports fast dormancy on their network, but it's a feature which is enabled on the Note by default. Down here in the states, people have been seeing significant network performance improvements by disabling this feature, as AT&T does not support it anyway.

You can disable fast dormancy by entering *#*#9900#*#* from your dialer and make sure the fast dormancy option is set to "Disabled"

Let me know if that works! :)

P.S. What type of connection are you picking up when you're getting those speeds btw? EDGE (E), UMTS (3G), HSPA+ (H, or H+)?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyhk05:
Thanks Jade but when I punched in *#*#9900#*#* it didn't do anything.. later I found that it is *#9900# for Galaxy note..

Once I got into this Sysdump menu I couldn't see fast dormancy option.. please see the screen shot.

I don't know where this fast dormancy menu is hidden for Galaxy note...

And you may also find from the screen shot it says "G" for the data signal..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Your sysdump seems weird... *#*#9900#*#* has worked for everyone else here that I've recommended about the fast dormancy issue.

The other thing is that the "G" in your signal indicates that you're only connecting at GPRS speed, which is in fact slower than dial-up. Perhaps there's a different APN for 3G/HSPA?

Another thought just came to mind as well... You said you got your Note from Korea right? Is there a Qualcomm sticker anywhere on your device? From what I understand, the Note available in Korea is a totally different device from a hardware perspective. It uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset instead of Samsung's own Exynos for the LTE functionality. It may even be possible that the Korean version doesn't even support 3G frequencies outside what's used over there... That being the case, ouch dude, that sucks...

I've included a pic from my device for what the menu should look like after inputting *#*#9900#*#*

P.S. Just realized that you made no mention of Korea, so I have no idea where that came from lol!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwboston:
He says in the first line of his post that he bought it in Korea. I think you may be right - the Korean version is the LTE/Snapdragon version. It may not be quad-band UMTS/HSPA capable.

This story seems to imply that the Korean version does not have all international 3G bands:

http://asia.cnet.com/blogs/lte-samsung-galaxy-note-isnt-welcome-in-korea-62212571.htm

Edit: reading the story again, it seems to say that 3G is locked out in the firmware on the Korean Note.

Is'nt the 10.128.1."69" not "169"?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyhk05:
Thank you all for the kind responses

I have found what the problem is... Korean Galaxy note supports WCDMA, GSM, and LTE

Unfortunately there is no WCDMA carrier in Canada so I had to go with Rogers.

Korean Galaxy note does supports GSM but preset to use only 900Mhz, 1800Mhz, and 1900Mhz. Rogers uses 850Mhz (for 3G) and 1900Mhz (for 2G)... Since my Note does not have 850Mhz option it automatically uses 1900Mhz which is 2G frequency this was why I can only have 40kbps speed for the data..

I could go with LTE but Rogers uses 700Mhz frequency and my device is set to 1800Mhz for LTE (because Korean carrier uses 1800Mhz for LTE)

My only hope is to find out how to change (if there is any way) this frequency setting softwarecally(not even a word but hope you understand what I mean) say... 900Mhz to 850Mhz without any hardware change

Does anyone know how to do that??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Suggestion: Get rid of the Korean/LTE Note. Buy the international/HSPA+ Note instead. Enjoy!

Sorry if that seems curt, but honestly, the problem you are trying to fix here with the LTE Note is more trouble than it's worth, especially when the problem is already solved in the other version of the device. No offence, but you really ought to buy equipment which is most compatible for the area(s) you plan to spend most of your time. So, if you spend the majority of your time in Korea, then I guess stick with what you've got, and just use WiFi (when you can) while in Canada. However, if you just picked up this device while you were visiting Korea or something, and Canada is your home country, then yeah, I'd get rid of that Korean LTE version quicker than a hot potato. Plus the international Note should work just fine back in Korea anyway, albeit minus LTE, but who cares? As far as I know, there's no unlimited data for LTE in Korea anyway, so what's the point in having all that extra speed when all it really means is that you're only going to crash into a wall that much faster?

Good luck!

no wcdma carrier in Canada?

I thought those new mobile companies used wcdma. Wind mobile and mobilicity - they should be able to work with the korean note, shouldn't they?

does the korean note have wcdma in 1700 and 2100 bands? that's what Wind uses.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neckhole:
I too would like everyone's opinions on this.

I've been using CM 7.1 since it's "stable" release, it runs great and I'm a long-time CM user. But it's not without it's faults; 911 dialing is broken, when toggling the GPS the phone won't go to sleep and the battery drains.

Plus, CM has removed the Vibrant from it's list of supported devices. Nobody on the CM development team currently owns a Vibrant and there doesn't seem to be much hope that it will change.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] HecaThePeca:
After reading some comments on these forums that the problems some people here reported were really rare and inflated by just a few unhappy customers, I got myself a Note with high hopes.

It seems like a great device... BUT:

1) The front camera is not working. It works like 15 seconds then freezes for a while or stops completely. After this it's not possible to start the camera app again. It just gives the error code "Camera failed". Rebooting helps... until you use the fron camera again... the good news is that no one else in here seems to have the same problem.

2) The gyroscope is obviously broken. I've seen a couple of posts about this here already.

So consider these before getting a GNote! There seems to be way too many problems with these devices! Hopefully it's just a firmware issue...
