[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfabet0:
Dear forum members

In the word of Princess Leia you're my only hope,

I've been losing a lot of sleep over this matter so please don't tell my about how blazingly fast your Note is as every time I read about you lucky bu****s I get a sinking felling at the pit of my stomach.

I appreciate any help you can give.

You'd be forgiven for thinking:

A: This is a repeat thread

B: I'm Trolling if only that were the case

On last count five people in the forum link bellow have the same version & update problem.

Model Number: GT-N7000

Android version: 2.3.6

Baseband version: N7000XXKK5

Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-N7000XXKKA-CL726566 root@DELL87#2

Build number: GINGERBREAD.XXKKA

I'm not alone in that my version of the sim free Note only appears to update once when first switched on

To quote an older thread which reflects my own situation closely in all but two aspects in that my Galaxy Note lags and mine was bought in the UK

(I know there are many threads asking the same question, and I've looked through many, but still haven't find an answer to my problems.

Just to clarify, my phone is not rooted, nor flashed, and I'm planning to leave it that way as long as possible, unless I really can't find any other solution for upgrading my phone

As soon as I've powered it on and connected to internet, I've got an update (OTA), which I installed as soon as I got home and plugged the phone to charger. Since then, I haven't got a single update, whenever I manually check I get "No updates!", and Kies says I have latest firmware, but im stuck on KK5 :S)(turshija)

Please note I have edited this quote.

The lag is most noticeable when trying to copy and past as it becomes almost imposable at times stoping then rushing to keep up with my finger.

When on the home screen swiping between windows and the same again in the stock browser can be slow

also when scrolling up and down a web page it gets quite choppy,

At times it can seem normal, while playing a game like asphalt 6 but every now and again the frame rate subtly skips a beat

coming from a single core iPod touch this is noticeably slower.

I have done a the LCD test *#0*# no problems detected

Looking at the RAM as a possible culprit in Options-Applications-Running services it shows that it has 178mb used and 500mb free yet in Task manager under RAM it has 437mb out of 800mb in use?

The question I'm trying to ask:

Is this a permanent situation do I have a faulty Galaxy Note or is it a matter of watch and wait for the ICS update or should I use factory reset?

As my mobile is past the return date, and until now I've never had a need for a warranty on anything from Samsung.

I don't even know how to apply for a Galaxy note Warranty?

EDIT: 06/02/12

My Note is afflicted with the screen bug when set on a low light setting switching power saving mode off has had little effect.

When reading a web page or most notably in the stock Mini diary the back round colour changes ever so slightly from one hue to another sometimes taking a slight pinkish or blue colour.

Can anyone with the same Galaxy Note version posted above confirm the same problem?
