[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hdragom:
I have overclocked a few phones in my past, but the Note? Really its so fast and all works super smooth. Maybe with the right ROM where the dev already pre-overclocked it... But setCPU was never working great for me. Maybe just my opinion, but wipe, and get yourself a good ROM. No need to overclock this beast.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mystic38:
There is no lag "problem" per se. period. Stating there is a "problem" makes the assumption that there can be a fix.

You cannot fix the inequality in display processing between the S2 and the Note, given that the Note must process 2.6 times as much information for the display as the S2, so it will ALWAYS appear to be not quite as fast as the S2, given it has similar hardware.

So given you cannot get a gallon of beer in a pint glass, making it a different pint glass (ICS) wont help.:)

Now, sure the appearance of "lag" on the Note can be minimised thru tweaking optimisations, but note (small n) that the same can be also applied to the S2! Essentially, never in a month of Sundays will two devices with similar hardware, one of which is doing 2.6 times the work, ever appear to operate with the same UI zip.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brooon:
The thing is...I don´t have any lag at all. Even with stock. BUT I can see a huge difference (on Stock rom) between TouchWiz and alternative launchers. Touchwiz is smooth as butter, whereas Go Launcher Ex shows a small lag (and it´s the fastest GB launcher alternative afaik.

And beside that: Currently I´m on Stunner (ICS) and here it is even a better experience. Absolutely no lag or waiting time, never, period.

I can´t sign the statement anymore, that the note is slower than a SGSII...I have both of them, and on Stunner it´s quite the same experience ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyanv:
Yea may be this is because of the launcher am using (ADWlauncher). I think I should try some other launcher.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyanv:
Problem solved... After switching to different launcher now it's fast and smooth..

Great, congrats! ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] TempusFudgeIt:
This is my first thread and not sure that it even warrants a mention at XDA, but thought if there were any existing Blackberry users out there that were contemplating swapping to the Galaxy Note, here are my compelling reasons!

Feel free to add your own (I'm sure there are a lot of ex-Blackberry users out there)! Here's my first five (not necessarily the top five... trying to keep this readable and brief!)

1) Touch screen.... I used a Blackberry since the very first version (the Blueberry as so many called it!) The screen was great and the scrollwheel interface amazing... But let's face it the latest BB touch screens just don't compete with the Android/iphones. Swiping a full screen to scroll just is amazing when you get over losing the wheel/trackball/trackpad. It does take a few days....

2) Stylus .... typing on the Blackberry was great (even with my big thumbs I got speed up) Tactile feedback was great. Now there is inbuilt Stylus and Swype keyboard (I know a lot of people have bagged swype but I find it great to slide the stylus around and how it matches words... TOOWOOMBA anyone?) And yes, I was a Palm Pilot user

3) Screen size.... my eyes are getting very old and I just couldn't read emails on the Blackberry anymore without changing the font size so large you could only read two or three lines at a time. 5.3" 1280x800 - wow! I can watch HD videos and so can two rows behind me on the bus!!

4) Phone size - yes it is big but remember how many people laughed at you the first time you pulled the blueberry out of your holster? (Some Nokias were just miniscule then) I have no problems taking a call on it and it does fit in all my pockets. I now love the chunky feel and robustness about the size.

5) Interface - Android is different - so very different - to the Blackberry ( I am embarrassed to admit that I had to google to find out how to change the wallpaper on the Note - since then I love Long Pressing!!) There are so many launchers and widgets and apps and developers like here at XDA that you can never be bored with your phone (Blackberry has amazing apps and I miss some of them but not for long!)

6...... Emails, Internet Browsing, Speed, Landscape mode, Customisation, Camera, ebooks, Google Play.... OMG there are so many reasons and so little space :)

Sorry for the length of this but really hope it finds a few Blackberry users out there that are tossing up on what to do like I did six months ago. I loved the Blackberry for so many years and defended it passionately against so many iPhone users. But now I have my wonderful Galaxy Note and I have never regretted my decision..... Over to you!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] taufikkusdinar:
I actually still use both..

Why?

'coz every people here (Indonesia) use blackberry and nowadays they starts to ask BB pin instead of phone numbers. So yeah have no choice but staying with my good old bold 9700.

However most of time i left my Blackberry on my work desk and have GNote always on my hand to work. I'm not saying its replace my computer or notebook but yes i spend less time on my computer..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Mystic38:
I have both.. a Bold 9930 with touchscreen and the N7000

IMO They are very different devices and really cannot be compared as, while they both have phone functions, their focus, priorities and strengths are very different.

After all, for every advantage the Note has, the BB has others.. The Note is not a better phone, its a less reliable, less robust, slower operating, more delicate communications device than the BB.. It is larger, battery lasts me 1/8 the length of time, its reception is not as good, its efficiency is less and its operation more complex...

The Note..? Well, in every other way and measure, with regards to infotainment the Note of course rocks.. but anyone looking to hop from BB as their only device to Note as their only device needs to fully understand what their PERSONAL priorities of a device are..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jeffs99:
Came from a BB....will never go back...

Size and speed matters
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hackerboi:
Still use both.

Typing on a QWERTY pad of the Blackberry is a breeze. All my official emails and chats are on Blackberry. The battery is good too. lasts a day or more with extensive use.

Even on 2G connection Blackberry is unbeatable, all mails and chats come thru instantly.

I love having the blackberry and gnote combi :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Princeomi:
Never had a blackberry. Frankly speaking never liked physical keyboard on phones. Just a waste of space (in my opinion). That space could have been used for browsing. I was using wm Jas Jar before (In the old days ). Never joined the bandwagon of either Blackberry or Iphone. Note is the best phone I ever had. Its better than my S 2.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Alexane_A:
Hi!

I recently bought a macbook pro (Lion OS). I already had a mac and didn't manage to connect the TF, but I didn't really care because I didn't need this feature at that time. Now I really need to connect both.

I'm using ES file explorer, and I did a search on the net and found this procedure : http://www.macworld.com/article/1158987/android_wep_base_station.html

Still, I can't manage to connect it. I must say, I'm not really good at creating networks or such, but my two PC actually works fine with the macs, and the TF can't find other devices on the wifi network, and when I give in the IP address, I get an error, like it was blocked by the firewall or wifi turned off or wrong username or whatever (basically, it doesn't work, and there is a message box with reasons why it might not work).

I tried the whole user name or the short user name, but neither works. I tried the IP address, I tried the network address (basically, the name the mac gives me, like computername.local, but it shows "server not found).

For all kinds of reasons I'm hesitating to change for an iPad (my TF is too slow for the huuuuuuge pdfs with lots and lots of graphics that I need to read and browse, and it shows the turning wheel between almost each page when I flip through it, and I figured having a mac, it might be better to stick to apple for other devices), but I really like my TF, and if I finally manage to do what I want with it, it's a reason less to change...

Thanks!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nl3142:
I am looking at starting to learn how to develop android apps. However, I am concerned that after putting all that effort into it that it will be a big waste should Oracle win. So is it worth it at this time or would it be better to wait until the case is further along?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thibaultj:
I don't think this is a waste. I mean, all those android phones won't disappear in a night, whatever the result of the case is. Plus, programming skills are never learned « in vain », programmers should never be reluctant to learn new things, in my mind.

That being said, if your goal is to make a living of it, I would say that it's quite a risky move to put all your eggs into the same basket, especially when the backet is hold by Google, a company which proved in many occasions that it give many ****s about android developers.

Well even if oracle wins the only thing that will happen is Google will have to pay fines, because if the took the alternative 99% of apps would cease to work(recode from Java to something else) and they would be more than likely to shut down android on that case :/

Both gfree_verify and manual method show superCID and simlock = 00. Rooted using the downgrade and root .pdf. Re-ran gfree --sim_unlock several times afterwards trying to make it work. When putting in a German Vodafone SDcard, it still asks for an unlock code :(

EDIT: I might be retarded... "Enter PIN code" is different from sim unlock, isn't it
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nipqer:
Yup, you're retarded :P

Sim unlock just lets you use any sim card, not just a single networks card.

Pretty sure there's no way to defeat the sim pin protection.

[Fascinate General] AuroEdge:
I have a few albums of pictures taken when I was using the THS build which did not properly save the date to the image file. They show as Dec 31, 1969 6:59:59 PM. I am thinking the best way to remedy this would be to somehow do a batch operation which takes the date from the filename (which is correct) and append the image data.

What would be the cleanest way to perform this operation? I would like to just change the one field and not overwrite the rest of the "metadata"
[Optimus One, P500, V General] vlt96:
OK changing the question: what are the differences between 729 and 787 as Max for you? Don't answer if your phone crashes! What are the differences for performance/battery between them?:)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] thachtunganh:
The highest level you can OC is 864Mhz. It affects CPU life and battery life A LOT!

Decrease the CPU speed can save the battery, but it also can make your phone slower...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] vlt96:
Hehe you answered exactly how I expected the answer... I expected, but not wanted, already knew:D

Does setting to 787 decrease CPU life (heard of any G1/G2 with burned CPU?)

Seek the signature below the line;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Busher391:
In my opinion I think after some time over clocking your going to come across some problems like battery frying phone over heating I haven't heard of anyone's CPU frying yet but it can happen but I think by the time you have used a few roms and done some experimenting and something dose go wrong a new p500 only going to cost u around £30 just take the risk :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] neko95:
> about OC'ing, it affects diode life, chips are made with diodes, and it is computer related aswell, overclocking causes cpu diodes life to be shorten out, overclocking means more current, more current means more heat, more heat will cause diodes to be busted out easily, :D but I never head anyone here complained about a bricked O1 becoz of over clocking.. this is as far as i know, I also want to know if 600 and 806 are in same voltage? ta kernels had this undervolt features.. it means lower voltage some frequencies isn't it? but undervolt causes more heat, why?:confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] otrazhenye:
I have a 787 MHz maximum stable frequency. In the matter of performance / battery life to save the answer is simple:

The higher the frequency of the processor, the better the performance, but consumes more battery power, as well as its temperature rises. To play well, the battery is bad:cool:

Hi everyone i bought a desire z from someone ,this phone as bought from vodafone romania and supposed to be locked to the carrier .

I inserted my orange sim and preformed a hard reset and it worked like a charm , so heres my question is this phone locked or not do i ned to unlock it if i want to root it and maybe switch kernels and install some roms ? thankyou
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
probably isnt locked, but those are two separate things. you can have an unrooted and unlocked phone, a rooted and locked phone... etc
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
The term "unlock" is confusing, as it can mean several different things.

Since a SIM works from a carrier besides where it was purchased from, it appears the phone is not SIM-locked. But that has nothing to do with S-Off and root, which is what you need for flashing ROMs, kernels, or any mods/apps that require root.

If I recall correctly, some of the European Z's are sold unbranded, and possibly not SIM-locked. But as far as I know, you will never get a phone from your carrier that is S-Off and rooted. Follow the Wiki method to get S-Off and root. And if you do so, it doesn't matter whether its SIM-locked or not, as it will be SIM-unlocked after the S-Off and root process (gfree does S-Off, root, Super CID, and SIM unlock).

And what rom do you consider the best(sense rom) i as thinking about android revolution hd but anyway the difference from my last motrola defy to this beauty is stunning the only downside is that my battery drains very fast it last a day without network being activated(3g) ..... and without widgets on the basic launcher just the sense clock
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crestofawave:
Yep, battery life on the stock battery just sucks. Also, I'd advise against sense 3.x because it's too bloated and thus slow for our device. If you want sense then wait for the Sense 4 ROM's to become fully functional. They are a lot faster and lighter. Otherwise, there's plenty of ROM's to choose from, so pick your poison :)
