If you mean HSPA+, HSPA, HSPDA, etc. 4G, then yes, you will get 4G connectivity. If you mean 4GLTE, then your answer is no. The T-Mobile Galaxy S2 Hercules doesn't have the right H/W to get 4GLTE. Another thing to keep in mind is that AT&T's HSPA+ network only goes up to 21MB/s compared to T-Mobile's 42MB/s.

[HTC ChaCha] MagicalSword:
Hi there! Be aware that if you remove apps you won't be able to update via OTA unless you install them again. If you wish to stay stock, it may be better to just freeze those apps so they won't appear any longer. It's easy and you don't have to worry about the backup files :-)

If space is an issue, install superuser and use Link2SD or any other methods to extend your internal space to the SD card.

Good luck

Hello!

So I decided to test drive the Note and the screen is awesome , although I did notice banding so that is a problem but anyway my main issue now is performance.

Everything just lags and performance of games is not good.

I am comparing to my Captivate and mine scored over 1300 Vellamo vs not even 800 in the Note.

Same thing with many other things.

Going in and out of the Applications menu with Golauncher just hiccups or is plainly not smooth.

Scrolling on the browser is also not smooth.

Now my Captivate is running ICS but even at 1Ghz it scores almost 1000 points in Vellamo and feels smoother vs this dual core at 1.5Ghz

Is all the junk that comes from factory really destroying its performance?

I have seen other scores that are very good.

I may have to go with the International version but somehow I doubt the difference between the two is really that big and I doubt my captivate is supposed to outclass this monster.

Is a beauty so I really want to make sure this is just an issue with its stock configuration.

Regards

Root, flash custom ROM, boom no lag
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] oort cloud:
Hmm... My Note is blazingly fast. Everything is super smooth and there's no lag anywhere.

But I don't run GO apps. As far as I can tell, I GO apps are a huge resource for hogs.

You might want to try and unintelligible GO Launcher and see if that helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] celkin:
I'm running Rogers stock, with bloat removed and da_g's overclock kernal at 1.7gHz with Go launcher, and believe me this thing don't lag.

Maybe try getting all that carrier crap off of the thing, tweek it out a bit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] shaolin95:
Ok so it must be the crap in this one. I know go launcher runs fine with my captivate so no reason it wont run fine here.

Do you see banding when launching the xda app?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slaydog:
The stock Notes do have lag. I think its a combo of this crazy screen size and the weird aspect ratio. Regular apps just weren't meant to fit on a screen this shape. Most of us have long since solved the lag problem, but it takes tinkerin'. Worth it, though...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 1tontomato:
I noticed the same thing on gingerbread. Moving to ICS made a huge difference. If you just testing make sure you see the difference ICS this makes because it really shows the potential. Also what you'll notice is not much has happened in kernel development for gingerbread. Its not worth it with ICS hopefully being official very soon. If your comparing a captivate running all the latest goodies to the note running stock ginger bread, I understand your hesitation, but the the ICS leaks make a huge improvement in the performance on this device. Try making a comparison between stock kk4, and aosp slim rom on the captivate. There isn't one. Hope this helps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
Remember, this is the first type of phone samsung has ever made. Ofcorse there are gonna be some issues. The next note will definitely be smoother stock on tw. But with android, we love customization. Once official ICS releases, it should be better.

I was using go launcher and it made my note leggy as hell. I'm on Apex now and all the lag went away. Thought I'd share
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mrokeefe:
Im still stock and unrooted (just got it 4 days ago) and i immediatly started running adw ex. Runs excellent. I also uninstalled as much att sh!t as i could runs verrrry nice now...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Yeah, out of the box the phone was ok. The screen/size made me overlook the minor hesitations and quirks. Well that, and I got it when my inspire4g took an unexpected **** on me so I really just walked into the att store and bought the phone that was the biggest step up from my inspire and the most interesting. And, being an ecet major I follow all of the reviews and releases so I knew it was at the very least decent.

I was about to graduate so I didn't have much time to tinker with it because of projects/finals and I'd been a pretty big HTC fanboi since windows mobile days so Samsung stuff (Odin, etc) was all new to me. Do I ran it stock plus AdwEx for at least a month I think and it was rock solid and smooth. I think I probably tried every single launcher there is, and still ended up back on AdwEx. (seriously, tsf, spb, hi, ex, vtl, modded TW, all of them) Most of the launchers could be made smooth with some tweaking and less fancy transitions, but most lacked many options I've gotten used to with AdwEx and nova.

That said, when I finally got the time I installed CWM, rooted the stock, and decided **** this and moved to ICS all in the same evening.

I missed ICS since I had it on my inspire, and it seems to have made the GNote amazing. Currently on previous build of team perfection objection ICS from appdroid, and have run all the others as well.

I ran nova prime for a good bit and that was very smooth. I switched to GOlauncher just to see what all the hype was about and ran that for a good bit, but couldn't stand their menus and just wanting me to buy stupid widgets and themes. It was decently smooth, but felt it may have imparted some lag on other parts of the phone at times. I can't rely prove that, I just know it's smoother with it uninstalled and a different launcher.

I finally switched back to AdwEx. So I'm running ICS with AdwEx, widget locker, and chompsms. It's super smooth. Most common issue is XDA premium force closing.

Once they release kernel source, I have no doubt this phone will be a decent powerhouse. I also don't think I've had a phone before that incited such love/hate amongst random people in bars and out and about. Some people will say oh my good is that the new phone tablet thing wow! Some hardcore ios guys sneer and say how it's way too big and unnecessary and how their screen size is superior and this would never fit in a pocket!

It's an awesome phone, I think the 16:10 aspect ratio, tablet resolution, att/Samsung bloat, and gingerbread were definitely holding it back a tiny bit at first. But apps will get updated, and aosp/source will make it killer.

I type too much...unemployed lol.

Here's some benchmarks...all on battery lol.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Illuminatiii_X:
Hello XDA!!!

My sister's boyfriend has the Samsung Galaxy SII Sprint Variation and I noticed that his screen was MUCH more vivid than my own screen. Colors were deepers, more saturated and just overall looked more brilliant.

I checked his settings and both of our screen brightnesses were all the way up.

We both opened our facebook applications and the top of the facebook app where there is a blue bar is much darker and saturated and deeper blue than mine.

Has anyone else seen another variation of the screen? I am concerned for my phone as it may be a hardware issue or it isn't calibrated properly or something.

Please discuss/ respond/ help me out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PJcastaldo:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Illuminatiii_X:
That's odd, it is really bugging me that my screen looks more dull than his (I always have to have the best :P)

Anyone know of a way to recalibrate colors on the screen? I just restored to stock!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AaronPauley:
Sprint variant has a color saturation option in their display settings menu. They can set their screen color mode to standard, dynamic, etc. Ours doesn't have that option.

If his was set to a more vivid setting, it would explain the color calibration difference.

Also, our phones use different graphics processing than the Sprint variant, so a comparison doesn't really say much. Galaxy SII is a branding name, the phones are vastly different though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rastlin:
Is there a way to acquire this option via an app or something?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AaronPauley:
Nope. It has to do with the Exynos processor in the Sprint/International versions. It was what allowed supercurio to create color calibration tweaks. Our phone has an Adreno 220 gpu and our color profile coding is vastly different.

That difference was part of the reason why Supercurio couldn't complete a quick fix (kernel/app) for color tuning on our device, but could for the Exynos equipped phones.

---------- Post added at 05:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:03 AM ----------

You can use something like Screen Adjuster from the play store, but adding color layers will alter your screens black production (or lack thereof rather) and it will kill your battery.

Here's the app, I wouldn't recommend it though.

Your issue has nothing to with processors. It's the screen itself. Let me guess, yours is manufacturer in Korea right? There's a major thread floating here that discuss this issue alongside the spots, mura, and lines. The batches that are manufactured in China seems to have the improved screen you're looking for. I can bear witness to it myself.

If you have problems with playing music on it, turn off ad blocking, however you did it, and that might fix it if you were blocking the site Google uses.

This is the procedure to flash liquidsmooth rom from the website

Installation

You are on 2.3.6

1. Install Mobile Odin

2. Flash REPACK_LP1 CF

3. Let Rom Boot

4. Go to CWM and flash LiquidSmooth

5. Wipe Data, Wipe Dalvik/Cache

You are on ICS (LiquidSmooth, imilka, neobuddy89...)

1. Go to CWM and flash LiquidSmooth

2. Wipe Data, Wipe Dalvik/Cache

Since CM9 only requires you to have CF root. I flashed CM9 when I was on Chrackrom after that I flash liquidsmooth and my SGN has root.

My app was removed from Google Play store and marked "Suspended" in the Developer Console on the 12th. I received an e-mail stating for violation of the intellectual property and impersonation or deceptive behavior provisions of the Content Policy. I replied to their e-mail immediately and haven't received a response yet. Is there a phone number or a live chat option to resolve such an issue? I couldn't find anything in my searching.

I have some guesses on what they think is a violation. Here is a link to a cached page of my app.

http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...sonysmartwatch.calc+&cd=3&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

The title "Calculator for Sony SmartWatch". Can I not use other company's names to clarify the device the app is for?

The screenshots/pictures of the app can't show Sony in it? Do I need to black out Sony in my picture?

The package name "com.kasten.sonysmartwatch.calc". Can't I not use anther company's name in my app's namespace for clarification?

- If I need to change this how can people who bought the app still get free updates?

Anything else I am not thinking of?

I think Google themselves flagged this as Sony even re-tweeted my tweet about the launch of my app and since the release I have only updated the screenshots and updated the controls for the 3x3 layout.

http://twitter.com/#!/XperiaExtras/status/198008472770580480

I don't consider this a official approval of my app from Sony but if they re-tweeted I don't think Sony got Google to remove my app.

Any suggestions or anyone with previous experiences with an app being suspended would be appreciated.

Thank you.
