[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MrDSL:
my evo is horrible with video so I'm not sure if you can tell but download and play this on a PC..

No block stuff or anything.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
That video is garbage in both the stock browser and YouTube app; however, it looks great in Dolphin HD browser.

The still images I posted also look completely normal in Dolphin HD, but they look like pixelated garbage in every other app -- to include gallery, quickpic, tapatalk, etc.

So, I definitely believe it's a software-based rendering issue of some sort.

Hopefully our all-star devs can fix it, or perhaps the upcoming official ICS release will solve it...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tenderchkn:
Video looks like garbage for me in YouTube app as well, even with HQ checked. The only way to see it in full quality is to view it in Dolphin Browser HD, with the user agent set to desktop mode.

However, if I do this, another problem arises. The blacks are no longer black, but dark gray. I suspect that in desktop mode, Dolphin Browser doesn't know how to convert RGB16-235 to full range. Does anyone have any ideas? This is definitely a software issue.

Purchased 3 of these cheap cases and received them today. They fit very snug and what I actually like best is that they cover the power button and volume rocker and when you push on the buttons on the case, you are pushing on phone buttons but it is harder to push so that you don't keep turning off phone by accident and adjusting volume by accident.

Bought for $5.95 each from Cimo Cases on Ebay. Received in 3 days with free shipping. Beats the heck out of paying $30 for same type of case at Att or BBY.

They are nice and thin and make the phone less likely to be dropped because of the grippy sides.

Boxwave sells them too, as do many other sellers, but on Ebay they were less expensive.

Cheers

I ordered a clear one and it look perfectly fine and fit. Great materiel, dropped the phone and nothing happened. It's thicker than the other TPU case i bought

Nice, I just ordered one yesterday. Will it fit with this bad boy since it's 0.4mm thick?

That I can't answer. I have no screen saver on my Note
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mindgrape:
Late to this, but yep..it fits! It doesn't interfere with the case at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] drblack2013:
I've got a black one on mine. Fits nice and looks good. The charger port is a bit small but it still barely fits the charger. Wonder how I'll like this versus the Seidio active.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Nucking Futs!:
Thx but I answered my own question too since both arrived last Friday & fit fine. I like this S-line TPU case so much, I'm about to order 2 more for backup. I had a similar TPU case (made by Belkin) on my iPhone 4 with no issues so hopefully there won't be any issues with this one too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
I ordered one and it fits really snug. The bad thing was my volume button didnt work with the case on so i had to cut it open to access it. Its ok overall but I ordered a different case because of it.

-On another NOTE, Samsung goes 5.3"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lindenhurst:
The volume works just fine on mine. I like the fact that you have to push harder through the case to operate it because without the case I kept hitting the volume and power button by accident. Now no more accidental power downs or volume adjustments.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bkeaver:
i just wish I could find a holster that will fit with this on the phone. I love this and have had mine for a month and liked it so well I got it for me SGSII aswell. I found a holster that works with the SGSII very well but that was only because I got the skyrocket holster which compensated for the extra bulk but with the note being the biggest one out there I am at a loss...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] trinxified:
I bought this same case in clear color, but due to convenience, I shelled out $20 at a kiosk in the mall. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bkeaver:
ouch I think I paid 6 bucks

Hmmm... I was thinking about getting a white one. Does the whole thing get nasty or is it just the matte part? Have you tried some soap & water?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
I Learned that the hard Way from my Old Iphone 4. Never to purchase white tpu cases that weren't glossy and i believe the clear ones turn green or yellow due to the oil from your fingers.

-On another NOTE, Samsung goes 5.3"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] e30andrew:
i just received this case today and I love it! it was about a week late, but for $6, i cant complain. it fits snug, looks and feels great, and I will probably be ordering an extra.

last note: the ebay add says its for the AT&T 1717, but it comes in a package for the international version. luckily there are no major differences, but the only difference i found is purely cosmetic- that being the camera is not centered properly in the camera cutout, but it doesnt block the lense at all, so its not that big a deal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Coffinfeeder:
Is there any battery covers with the same matte style like the black note, but for the white note? I don't care for how smooth and susceptible to marks it is. I'm considering swapping out for the black one if there is no alternative.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] techrider6262:
I don't like the feel of the white back either very slippery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mikebionca06:
Same here that is why I opted to get the Blue
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] techrider6262:
I guess we could take the free cover and detach the front cover and just use the back.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dakleenupman:
Yes! The back of the folio case that some got for free is MUCH nicer than the stock one. Its thicker, stiffer and grippier. It has the textured feel and hatched look.

Trim through flip cover off and viola.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] phungn:
i really want something minimum just to protect the stupid shiny back cover, like some 3m or something. I wish they just made it textured like the regular notes and s2.

I got one of these off eBay. White mesh battery cover for Note. Was around $7. I love it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kanate:
I had something like this for my last phone (iphone 3gs). Make sure that you take it off once in a while to clean off the dirt that stuck in all that holes; dirt could scratch the surface of the back cover from friction. The look is awesome, btw.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ekerbuddyeker:
Thanks. Good advice. Its also the lightest case I have.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] naeib2000:
tried the oem factory flip cover which replaces the battery cover

after trying i do like the matte back but i want to get the smooth look again i gave away my other back and now i want another if anyone has a factory smooth white back for the i717 note please let me know
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Barry (NJ):
Wish you were closer, I'd swap with you...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ekerbuddyeker:
I would like to find one with a kick stand. Just replaces the back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
I find that applying a full body shield that is a wet application type that yields a rubbery like finish is best route. I felt the same way about it being slippery so ordered one and have it sitting on my desk now waiting to be applied. I discovered this by accident when I applied one to my Vibrant and fixed the problem I hadn't intended to remedy. I know alot of people don't like wet type because of the rubbery like finish, but this may be a plus for you at this point, I know it is for me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GodDamnF*ckThingsGRRRRR:
So long story short:

Had android 2.3.4 (custom kernel rom etc) and wanted to update it to something newer (WHY DID I DO THAT WHYYYYYY) so as almost 90% of the people out there "yeah i know stuffs 'bout computers... so a phone won't be a problem... don't make me laugh" WAS I WRONG. So i found a how to step by step theandroidsoul com/android-4-0-ics-ice-cream-sandwich-update-for-galaxy-s-2-ii

Transfer the Android 4.0 file you downloaded in step 1 above to phone’s internal sdcard. Just remember the location where you transfer it — you’ll need it in step 8 and step 10 below.

So i did... AFTER i unzipped it... didn't know. After that came:

Wipe system, data and Cache.

In recovery, go to “mounts and storage”.

To wipe system, select “format /system”. Choose “Yes – Format” on the next screen.

To wipe data, select “format /data”. Choose “Yes – Format” on the next screen.

To wipe cache, select “format /cache”. Choose “Yes – Format” on the next screen.

AND **** HIT THE FAN

Since the file is unzipped the Clockwork Recovery(v 4.0.1.4) can't find it only its folders... so i was stuck. The phone didn't load, it sits on the logo with the (!) in a yellow triangle. When i try to flash it with odin (tried with 1.83 and 1.85) even with "pit" i get stuck at

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makrilli:
Are you sure you are in download mode, try diffrent usb cables, kill all kies processes with task manager, try to reinstall kies and then try again, also try heimdall, if you don't have mac and nothing else has worked, you could set up virtual mac and then use heimdall. Hope this helps

Edit: I'm not sure if I understanded right, but did you managr to get to cwm after you wiped and rebooted?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GodDamnF*ckThingsGRRRRR:
Well... i dont know anymore if im in download mode "ClockworkMod Recovery"... will find another cable and try it. Didn't have kies before this happened... installed it nothing, deleted it nothing. I'll try this heimdall... All the wiping was done in cmw(which i am in right now) tried to find the new software and couldn't so i rebooted and... the rest is history

Well i'll try to fix it during the weekend and if nothing happens... i'll try that
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nos_20:
Try re-downloading your ROM you want to flash, to your computer. Then load Odin, follow the steps. Only to get your phone into download mode press and hold volume down, home and power on all at the same time. Keep holding them until the screen comes on and the phone will go into download mode. Then connect it to your PC. Wait until the PC recognises your phone and you have a yellow box with com highlighted in Odin. Then flash your ROM. Make sure you do exactly like the guide. Your phone should be ok.

Good luck!

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collije:
The kernal will likely mean the most for battery life. Well, besides your personal usage habits and if your location has a strong signal (or just keep on 3g for normal use, as LTE currently is a battery hog).

Imo's or BAMF's Test 3++ I've tried and get 18+ hours on my Tbolt. ASOP roms seem to have the absolute longest possible battery life from what I've read, but I'm a Sense guy.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Classicmm:

Just sits in my locker at work in airplane mode and its just about dead after 8 hours
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collije:
Oops, haven't been back here in awhile :)

Hmm, airplane mode & dies in 8 hours. Yup sounds about right. Although if it sits all day in the locker in airplane mode might as well shut it off imo.

That said, root (if not already) and just give a ROM a try. If you like Sense, give Team BAMF's BAMF Forever specifically I recommend 1.11 version (this has BAMF's Test 3++ kernal already baked in) which you can get directly in the original post on their own website (no linking here). Once installed, I recommend a couple of extra steps within "BAMF settings":

CPU governor: Try OnDemand vs SmoothAss

I/O Scheduler: Try Noop.

Be sure to battery condition & wipe battery stats(yeah yeah, some folks will debunk. Whateva). On BAMF's site has the most comprehensive method imo. It takes about 2 - 3 full cycles to fully charge then fully empty, but many folks are at least doubling what you currently have.

I've been running Skyraider Zeus rom on bamf's site and its been amazing as far as battery life goes, running stock kernel. Oh and get the rezound battery the difference is amazing!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collije:
I like Skyraider as well, amazing customization choices. I'd love to see a refresh (cough...hint...cough).

And something to be said for the Rezound battery. It really does exceed expectations for not a huge extended battery.

Actually, give the battery a try 1st. Spend a twenty methinks you'll like it once calibrated & you've gone through a few full charge/empty cycles to build new battery stats.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Southern_mind:

14hrs, 40mins stock battery and sitting at 34% with low-medium usage on workshed's thundershed. i only have 2 widgets running tho, not much going on at all and im running freqs of 184/768 and interactivex gov with his native kernal. i never notice any lag or slowdown and love the smaller form factor of the phone again (used to extended battery for a while and couldnt take the huge/heavy phone anymore, kinda feel like i wasted my money on it lol).

yesterday with heavy usage for me it died after something like 12-13 hours with at least 30 minutes of navigation and 4g all day long. and again same stock battery with same settings. only rom ive been able to do that with stock rom. and actually i havent even calibrated or bumped yet, been meaning to but i get lazy by end of day :D

BUT for the record, i have heard that people have been getting some great life with eternity rom. try to convince myself to try it again but im stuck on worksheds stuff right now with all its ics themeing (i was a long time eris user -_- i love his work :D)

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _highway_:
I think the best thing to do is use some kind of AOSP ROM -- liquid v3.2 works well for me, feel free to use whichever one you want -- but I think that a slim AOSP will work wonders.

Also, like the above user said, get SetCPU for $2 from market to work with the (probable) IMO kernel of your custom rom, and use the profiles option to run something like:

1024/245 -- main OR

768/245 -- main

AND

battery < n% -- 768/245

screen off -- 384/245

this way, when your screen is off, listening to music or idle, it wont ever go above 384 mHz, and if you just want to underclock, you could run 768 max / 245 min all of the time and not really see a performance drop.

these lower profiles should really help extend battery life
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sailio:
I have that and it is underclocked running liquid 3.2. My evo3d is getting 50+ hours running meanrom 2.0 without Modding CPU in any way.

Got a new battery and its the same life. Wiped everything even formatted system before any new rom

about two weeks ago I rooted my friends moto razr. I wasnt able to freeze/delete any apps as it said to get the donate version, and all I had was the free version, so I told her to just use it and see if she seen any differences in it then we would go from there.

she just let me know today that she was having problems with it. her internet was failing, and she was having problems last night with texting, her buttons wouldn't work so she had to go back to the main screen then back into it.

she said she had issues with the internet before the root but the texting issues didnt start till after.
