[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Oneiricl:
Would just like to address what you were saying point by point:

The reason the SII is faster is its had almost a year to mature. A year during which Samsung released a lot of updates.

The same is true of the Note. Each update that comes out (2 so far for me, and 3 for the European market) makes things even better.

Those are manufacturing defects. You should just get Samsung to replace your phone.

Can't agree. The home button feels just like the others in the Galaxy range to me.

Agreed (when not using the flipcover). But IMO this isn't a major issue. Your mileage may vary.

That's pure BS. The latest flagship Google phone i.e. the Nexus is out with a similar resolution. That means this resolution is the standard for the near-o-not-so-near future.

P.s. Web, videos, games but nothing more - what do you use your smartphone for then? :s

That's not true. The Note does have Gorilla glass, it only seems that the hardness varies depending on where you've got your Note from. Gorilla glass is not the be-all and end-all when it comes to protecting your screen. We've seen this with other phones too.

According to reports I've seen in this forum this was fixed in a firmware update from Samsung. (For the record, I haven't had this issue.)

Again fixed with the last firmware update. (And again, I haven't faced this.)

Again fixed with the last firmware update. I didn't have this issue either, so maybe others could weigh in?

Too bad these issues were big enough a deal to make you switch phones. I hope you're happy with your new one though. :)

I have used GNote over 2 months, I have been fun with it because it run fast, nothing laggy. Now my GNote was updated with ShipRom LA4 that was modified by deleting some unnecessary softwares and added FM kernel 2.0. I also installed a lot of softwares that I needed. I can do a lot of works with it. It has the same speed as Ipad2 when browsing internet.

I used many smartphone as HD, HD2, Desire HD, Galaxy2, Iphone 4s but I'm so happy with my GNote.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DeKubus:
I REALLY don't understand what you people are doing with your phones to get the screen scratched. You throw it in a bag with 20 pairs of keys or what?

Back to OP: I second the thought you may have bought a faulty device. But ofc in the end everything comes down to the likes an dislikes of each individual user. Hope you have better luck with your S2
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dhruvmalik:
One misconception is that you are getting a scratch on the glass. More than likely, you are getting a scratch on the oleophobic coating or the Anti Glare coating which is on the phone.

Gorilla Glass itself is tough, but again, its GLASS.

You should pop on a screen protector if your use is a bit more heavy. Those are cheap enough to replace while assuring a "scratch" free display.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hackerboi:
Seems like the OP's SG Note was a Lemon. The SGS 2 is a brilliant phone no doubt but when compared with the Note there are a few short comings.

1. Battery life. SGS2 - 10Hrs /12hrs?? | SG Note - 20Hrs +

2. Screen Real Estate - the 5.3" Screen is an experience.

3. Stylus - Amazing tool for drawing, photo editing etc.

IMHO you should have kept your Note for a while and Switched to SGS3 as its soon to be launched.

I can't believe there is still a gorilla glass debate... where have you people been hiding? "Note doesn't have G Glass" = living under a rock... ;-P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
I've had my note refunded as well, mainly because of the Video playback issue and black clipping that is found every where, I've already had it replaced and nothing was really fixed... even the 2 brand new store units exhibited the same issue. Winning the screen lottery is not my idea of a $700 well spent. I know others will also fail to understand this.

Some of the defects might be a lemon but the display is not, the fact that you see vertical/horizontal lines on grey images and grainy whites when browsing websites is a proof of it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] BeamMeUpStreaky:
sounds like u did get a lemon. Thats too bad because you probably would have liked it very much. I agree 100% for the volume buttons being accidentally pressed and this is due in vast part by samungs idiotic desicion to place the volume rocker right across from the sleep wake button.

Look at the huge offset of the volume rocker and sleep wake button on the samsung Nexus. That was done properly and the Note's was butchered.

Im actually looking for a way to reassign the buttons.

Every single person who has tried my Note have all hit the volume while trying to leverage the phone in otder to press the sleep button. Ive have the phone for a while and i still hit them constantly. Doesnt bother some people however i could care less if they dissagree... they didnt pay for my phone or forbmy experience with it

Other than the butchered volume/wake button placements, i love my Note !!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nonato:
why do you guys have to use the power button?

or

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] William Haven:
For everything you said, this is the only part i agree and have experienced... Also, the USB Port is very fragile (this has been reported also in SII).

BTW, the note DOES HAVE gorilla glass.. but why should it matter? I believe the scratches most ppl have been reporting are cause by the s-pen in the oleophobic surface and not the glass. Of course it doesn't mean GG can't be scratched easily with a little bad luck!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] friedje:
So why you don't just use the home button to take it out off sleep like all

normal ppl ? Then you don't hit the volume rockers by accident.

The only time you need the power button is to get into the power menu....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] p51d007:
Glass can scratch

What amazes me is people think that just because a screen is glass, it can't be scratched. I never looked, but does anyone know if any of the phone/tablet manufacturers ever call their devices scratch PROOF or scratch RESISTANT?

I had a dell streak, put a scratch film thingy on it when I got it. After a few months, it started to peel. Took it off and I used it in a soft lined pouch for over

a year, in & out dozens of times a day and never had a scratch.

What the heck are some of you doing to your devices? Rubbing sand over the screens LOL?

If you toss these devices around, put them in pockets with keys, knives, other sharp objects, expect them to get SOME kind of damage somewhere.

Personally, I treat my phone/tablets as an EXPENSIVE piece of equipment, not as a super happy fun ball to be tossed around.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jafarsalih:
it does have gorilla glass,

when I found this post (Galaxy Note Definitely doesn't not have Gorilla Glass)

I couldn't live with it so I scratched GNote screen with my own keys and nothing happened.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ekerbuddyeker:
Boy did you make a BAAAAADDDD decision....

(I did it too for 24 hours then ranbbaco and convinced the store to swap them back, and they did)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] JulyDerek:
I sold my SG2 for my Note. Both are equally great phones and I love my Note.

You probably had a defective piece or you screwed your phone up somehow.

PS: Note does have Gorilla Glass. :-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
There has been no official printed confirmation that the galaxy note has gorilla glass, so this debate will never end.

Yes, there are plenty of Web sites that say it does. And plenty that say it doesn't. And yes, there are people who said that someone told them it has gorilla glass.

If they do have gorilla glass it makes no sense they are so secretive about it. That's all I'll say.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
oops, well i look dumb now. When was that added? That certainly wasn't there when the note was first released.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] oohyeah:
Just want to add that when I first got the Note, it felt really slow too.

but after rooting and installing a custom rom (Check ROM), and most importantly, a new LAUNCHER (Launcher Pro for me, though Go Launcher also works great), it's now MUCH faster. I never had the SGSII so I can't compare, but I LOVE the Note!! (I actually gave up my Galaxy Nexus for this and haven't looked back).

And when ICS comes out, and the ICS custom ROMs, hooooly cr*p!!

and yes, you definitely had a lemon. Mine doesnt' have any of the issues you mentioned apart from the poor button positioning, which I've already gotten used to.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
Why did this turn into a gorilla glass thread? People gorilla glass or not its faily EASY to scratch the screen on the note.. well not really the screen but the coating on the screen.. Im using my note as rugged as it can be and I dont have scratches yet on this replaced screen but my first one had..

Anyway can we just end this gorilla glass debate, it does not change anything at all.

Hi

I love my note, its defo the best phone I have owned yet. I do however find it to be a bit laggy, and thus far there have been zero updates for my sim-free KKJ4 2.3.5 Note (Bought early November).

I don't have the time to muck about rooting or trying out custom firmwares, so I am relying on Samsung. Unfortunately, they have not yet come through with updates to the latest and greatest Gingerbread.

This is rather annoying and also leads me to wonder when (if ever?) my particular phone will get the ICS update once its released.

Galaxy Note is my first ever Samsung phone so not my place to compare these two different models. I bought my note with my brothers recommendation. I felt regretful to death for first few days till I get used to Touchwiz interface because I was quite a fan of HTC sense and my screen got broken at first drop down. But after I get used to it, i simply recognized how outstanding it is in every possible aspect. It is way more faster then any other phone I ever used.So your device should have been definitely damaged if you have complaints of lag. It has the most beautiful and responsive screen I ever seen. Battery life is superb. This is the first device I could surf the Web for fun with no suffering in terms of speed and ease of use. I used to use browser on my mobile only when I had no other choice b4 but with galaxy note I prefer to surf via note instead of laptop. This is the first ever device I can watch full movies both online and on my hard drive with no lag. I only used to watch short clips from YouTube etc. before Note. Sound is louder then any other phone I ever used. GPS fix is fast and accurate. I never had any trouble with any games so far.

Use a wonderful app called Titanium Backup

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cowsaregreat:
To some extent, there's no way around this. You're installing a new rom that requires wiping the phone first, at least, if you don't want buggy issues popping up later.

+1 for Titanium Backup. (Generally not a good idea to backup your system settings across roms, asking for compatibility trouble.)

MyBackup Root will backup your SMS, MMS, contacts, call logs, etc.

Your launcher probably has a backup/restore function to save your settings to the external SD. Some of your widgets might have a similar function.

I had nadlabak CM7 installed on my Milestone, I saw there was a new version so I downloaded that to my SD.

While I'm at it I'm downloading the new OpenRecovery for Milestone and while I'm in OR I see an option to OC to 1.1Ghz. Let's try it ...

Not a good idea it seems since I'm stuck in a reboot loop. I can't get into the recovery menu via the 'normal' way: Hold x while boot, then hold up + camera.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kabaldan:
If your bootloader is older version than 90.78, the actual way to boot to recovery is to hold the camera button while powering-up the phone, not the x key.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Tuytje:
My bootloader is 90.78 :(

Any other idea's ?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] n3n00:
Proper way is X + power, when triangle comes up, Vol DOWN + camera. I don't remember getting in with Vol UP. But I didn't use the combination for a while, it automatically reboots in AOR for me.

Anyway, if that doesn't work, replace Open Recovery folder and update.zip with new one, reflash the phone via RSDLite, and try again ^^.
