[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] leppo:
If I didn't have the Note, I would totally get it. Even after 3 months, I'm still not completely comfortable with its size. But since I already have it, I'll wait and see what the S4 (?) will be.

I just want someone to rip Flip book from it. I loved Flip book on the IPad, Sorry Google but Currents sucks compared to flip book.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] psionic11:
When I first considered buying my Note back in October last year, I considered how well its specs would hold up over time. There were early rumors that the S3 would be released in Feb '12 (remember the leaked poster with S3 specs on it?). A quad-core CPU, 2GB RAM, and a 12 megapixel camera were the biggest considerations for me.

I'm so glad I went with the Note. Sure it's not the speediest on stock ROM, but its more than fine for what I use it for, which is almost everything -- music, gaming, talk, text, e-books, note-taking and doodles, videos on youtube, movies on Netflix and HBO GO, GPS, web-surfing, and even limited music production.

I don't need LTE, and I don't need quad-core. At work, the Note is still king spec-wise, and I expect it will hold its own for the rest of this year. My personal computing device is the Note, and the S3 offers no major improvements. I'll pass.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PurpleMelbourne:
I like the lawyer roundness of S3. Bottom corners of Note are uncomfortable in hand. Official ICS for Note should come any week now S3 has its glory day. So the differences between Note and S3 are small but significant.

The Note is a fraction too big for regular phone things when driving. I might switch to S3 because of that. I'll see what my friends S3 is like when he gets it.

I will consider 64GB S3 with 64GB SD card I have in my 16GB Note. S3 16:9 screen is almost as big as Note 16:10 screen but slightly narrower for palm use. If you could use the S pen with S3 then it would be an easier choice for me!

I would miss the 16:10 when browsing or looking at maps, but like 16:9 when using as phone... I want a phone with expanding screen! ;-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ckkwang:
Get a S3

Might as well sell my note and get a S3..

S3 is gorgeous....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Markhypnosis:
What is the phone in your pic? It's definitely not the S3.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] richlum:
If I didn't have my Note I would get the S3.

But after using the Note for almost 2 months I would miss the larger screen and the S Pen.

I like the Wolfson DAC and the quad core with reduced power consumtion (the interface looks really smooth in the videos not sure if this is due to hardware or software improvements).

Pop up play is nice, but you can do that already with Stick it. Although having it integrated is nice.

The wireless connectivity is also nice, but not enough reason to switch from the Note.

The call whilst sms'ing by putting hte phone to your head is also, nice, but at the moment it is not too difficult to tap the phone button to call whilst typing an sms (I use Go SMS, so I can't remember if the stock sms app has that).

So main advantages for me are Wolfson DAC, quadcore and ICS.

But hopefully we will have ICS by the time the S3 is available anyway :)

But I'll wait for the Note 2

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] arulvelk:
Let's wait for some time....

I currently use samsung galaxy note and I am happy with it. I personally think that there was no need to introduce a new model when the current model has not been explored or utilised or whatever to its limits. Funny thing is that Samsung is not officially upgrading galaxy note to ICS but found some time to make a new model. I hope Samsung has some explaination on this issue. More over the advertised functions like fast transfer of files, multitasking, voice assistant, which are being used to highlight SGS 3 could be given as upgrade features to SGS2 and SGN. I am sure that these phones can support these new features given their hardware configurations. I don't know, but SGS 3 did not impress me and I shall continue to live with my SGN and not feel down. :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawnn218:
Phone looks great no doubt. But as a gnex user.. same Android OS, don't see the need to change for the most part. The one thing that could sway me is the 4g radio which my nexus sucks with. 4g radios eat battery and Samsung 4g radios can barely hold 4g

Surprised we went from single to dual to quad cores before the next lte radio. Hope the 4g radio in this phone is better than the gnex
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxbat121:
That's mainly a Verizon problem because of its CDMA network. All LTE phones on Verizon has to maintain two radio interfaces open all the time: one for CDMA for voice and one for LTE for data. Until Verizon switches over to VoLTE (not anytime soon), you will have to suffer with that for all future LTE phones.

If you want to see how 2nd gen LTE phone works, look no further than all current AT&T LTE phones where phones only need to maintain one radio interface on. When voice call is activated, the phone automatically falls back to HSPA mode.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawnn218:
Nope. I had a thunderbolt. Held. 4g everywhere like glue. My gnex can't even hold 4g in my room where the TB pulled 20+ on speed tests
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxbat121:
Ok, I see where you are going. What I'm talking about is battery life on LTE phones which is the biggest problem on all LTE phones, not the speed. TB is notorous for poor battery life. As for signal strength, from what I heard, it is actually a discrepency between GB (what your TB is on) and ICS (what your GN is on). Basically, GB reports CDMA signal strength while ICS reports LTE signal strength.I have couple friends with TBs and their phone don't exactly holding on to LTE signals like you said. They lost LTE signal when office door closes:)

[General Topics] MOBiz:
Right step toward the Android application development starts with the selection of best tool. Top criteria that must be reviewed should include easy to use UI that can allow just about anyone to do it with a short training, multi mobile platform and device support issues and the availability of dev + test + packing functions without switching the screens or tools.

There are few tools who claimed to do that. However many fails to meet all criteria.

I have tried mBizmaker recently and found that it was very kind to people like myself with very little technical knowledge. It was easy and simple. It only took me an hour to develop and test simple scheduler for my Samsung phone.

Just wanted to share some of my experience.

Are you sure it's an update, or is it just kernel sources?

Yep, I just extracted and it's kernel sources. I don't think you're going to do anything with that...

I m not sure with that. What do think whether is it kernel source or update and what is the difference?

Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e

It's kernel source code. You would use that as a base to compile a custom kernel for the device. Trust me, it's not what you're looking for!

Forget about unlocking your bootloader. This will give you s-off. Once you're s-off you can flash the GB firmware and go with either a stock or custom rom/recovery...

If you unlock your bootloader you won't have access to flash radios or kernels and cannot downgrade.

Go HERE to get GB firmware, stock GB roms, and instructions for downgrading. It's after step 5...
[HTC Sensation] androidboy123:
Thank you very much. I was having a wrong understanding that I have to unlock my bootloader to soff and install any custom Rom. Since u said we only need to soff, then I will give a try on the soff tool u linked me too.

I'm sorry to say that.. But for jb soff you do require unlocked bootloader.. also you need to be rooted which also can be done only when you have unlocked bootloader.

As for the htcdev unlock failing at flashing token with error "token check failed".. almost every person. Who has been trying this for the past few weeks has got the same error.. This might be because of either htcdev unlock is not generating the unlock_code.bin properly.. Or the ppl with recent phones /recently repaired phones have some cosemitic change in the motherboard which is causing this failure

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDroidLurker:
Hey all. As is evidenced by my name, I typically just lurk and learn rather than add to the confusion. But now I am stumped. Being a person that doesn't post much, I can't put this in the Dev section so I hope someone much more intelligent than I gets wind of this post.

I have recently found a previously unnoticed bug with my Manualnootered NC. I am on a first gen Nook Color running manualnooter 5.02.19 over stock 1.42. I also have the Dalingrin OC Kernel (1.2 Ghz). I'm running GoLauncherEX with homecatcher over the stock launcher. Nothing outlandish or special installed. (Dolphin,netflix,Titanium, CWM, etc...)

When I attempt to use the "read to me" function of the childrens books, the audio cuts out before each sentence is finished.

Example: Text would read "Jack climbed up to the top of the beanstalk"...... But the audio that plays would be "Jack climbed up to......".

With one particular book, "The astonishing secret of awesome man", it was cutting off the audio of the reading part but would still play a trumpet sound effect and perform the animation that was part of the story.

It happens on new downloads as well as old purchases. I have tried archiving and re-downloading, re-rooting, and factory reset..... I even spent nearly an hour on live chat with a tech support rep who only succeeded in talking me into wiping my device by assuring me that it would fix the problem. It did not.

Eventually I restored to 1.0.1 and ran the whole gamut of updates back to 1.42 just to make sure I had a clean install.

No luck, although at one point I was also getting the blank "red screen" before I managed to get it re-rooted again.

So now I am wondering if anyone else has noticed this problem. It isn't an issue for me (since I can read to my self, thank you :p ) but it would be nice to allow my kids to use their read to me books again.

Any ideas? If anyone needs a better idea of the problem I can make a youtube video and post a link to better illustrate the issue.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J515OP:
Does the problem only occur after you root or even when you are restored to plain stock 1.4.2? Sounds like it might be a B&N issue though they weren't able to help you. If it just occurs after rooting an easy solution would be to run a bootable SD card with CM7 or CM9 and leave stock unrooted so you could have the feature.

Then you have all the features of a full tablet from the SD card and can always boot back to stock for the read to me feature.

JP
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDroidLurker:
I had considered that but it gave me the "red screen" on stock. Not sure if maybe there was some remnant from my previous root that may have bern causing this or not. All I am sure of is that before 1.42 they worked. I wonder if anyone else had the "red screen" on stock like I did. I saw one other post about it but I think they were rooted.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DizzyDen:
I would set clock speed to 800 mHz and see if that fixes it. Overclocking it may cause the read to me app to process the video on them too fast for the speech to fully read the sentence.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDroidLurker:
That is what I had thought. I did set the clock speed to 800Mhz with no luck. I wonder if I should just reflash the stock kernel and try that...
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GMPOWER:
I will be looking into this issue over the next couple day and getting back with you. I have a couple ideas on what might be causing the issue, but no hard evidence at this time.

Thanks so much! I know you probably have other pressing issues but I (and everyone else who enjoys the use of their rooted Nook) appreciate your time and effort. If you need any specific info from me just let me know.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GMPOWER:
Could you download this file, and flash it with CWM, LINK. The problem that you are having is caused by a bug in the current release of Adobe Air. Once you have flashed this file, you will need to go into the Google Play Store and turn off auto updates for Adobe Air. DO NOT update Adobe Air.

What this file will do, it will delete your current Adobe Flash and Air from the data partition, install the most up to date Adobe Flash, and last working Adobe Air into the system partition. By installing the files into the system partition, you will always be able to go into manage applications, and uninstall any updates back to these working versions. When Adobe Air is updated in the future, you can update it to see if it works, and if it don't just uninstall back to this version.

As for the "red screen" that you came across, this will happen when Adobe Flash is uninstalled from the device.

Please report back to this post if it works, or does not work, so that I can update the whole MN 5 package for everyone else to enjoy. I only have a few read to me books to personally test this on, and not all of them had this problem, so I really need the feedback from you.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingbat:
So, I took a device in for screen repair. Got my phone back, with a magnificent new screen. When I got home, I hooked it up to the computer via USB cable, nothing. No mount USB option in the phone, nothing showing in windows device manager. I try to enable debugging, nothing. I boot into download mode, still nothing. I think maybe I have a bad cable, so I try one, then another, still nothing. Maybe my computer's messed up. I try another, still nothing. The phone charges fine, but will not activate any USB data options, such as tethering, adb, or file transfer. All of these things worked fine before I gave it in for repair.

Does anyone have any advice on what I should do before going back to the store and accuse them of breaking my device?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Try to see if anything shows up on your usb port list in device manager in Windows. Try updating drivers from Windows Update.

Hi. Over the last couple days I have been making replacement icons for my phone. They were originally for myself, then I posted some on Reddit and people seemed to like them, so I made more.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deadeye*:
Can any one post some bencharks of roms? for example Stock Samsung ICS Rom and CM9? Really want to know if roms compared to stock Samsung and CM9 make diference in speed? Please :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
1) Benchmarks are meaningless. The only people who think benchmarks are useful are normally the people who fap off over their benchmark scores. They're simply not any indication of real world performance of the phone.

2) Why not flash each rom & run benchmarks yourself ? Easy to do.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thracemerin:
This ^

I can easily manipulate the same ROM and Kernel to get whatever Benchmark scores I want without too much difficulty, it would also likely be impossible for anyone to tell I did it other than the fact that my scores would be unbelievably high/low.

Also, some ROMs run better than others on a ROM/kernel combo depending on their ability to handle OC/UV and GPU tweaks, not every handset can handle these things in the same way (I have 2 GT-I9100Ms, one can handle heavy UV while the other doesn't seem to be able to handle any, based on the serial numbers they were manufactured at roughly the same time, possibly the same batch) so what benchmarks well for one person may show awful results for another.
