[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tbong777:
I run into people all the time who see my phone and have no idea what it is or even that it's a phone readily available from ATT here in the US.

They have no idea. Most people actually like it and want one. A handful think its HUGE. I am so used to it don;t find it big. I find the iPhone and my SGS2 extremily small now.

It appears Samsung really doesn't push this phone like they did the S2 and now s3.

I am beginning to wonder whether or not a "Note II" will be released.

Anyone have the same experience when other's see their phone?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MikeFRG:
Yep here the same, a lot of ppl i met did not know that device here in Germany as well. 10% think its to huge but i tell them in even 3 days after i got my SGN i never touched my other SGS1 and SGS2 incl. the SGT7 :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Strategist:
Well first of all remember that 80% of the population barely pays any attention to gadgets. So it's not suprising that a relatively new device like the Note is still not well known. I guess it also depends on the level of promotion. Samsung ran the Superbowl ad but I don't know how heavily advertised it's been after that.

In India the Galaxy Note has been massively promoted right from the start, something which surprised me at first. However it's been a big success and even regular people seem to be aware of it. Whenever I show it to people, the reaction is generally very positive.

I don't think there is any question that the Note has been a big global success. I think there will be another massive round of promotion around the Olympics and I will be surprised if sales are less than 10 million at the one year mark.

There will definitely be a Note 2 though possibly it may not come this year. There isn't much serious competition yet in this category and Samsung may decide that the Note will continue to sell well. In that case they may postpone the Note 2 to sometime next year when they could ship with Jelly Bean. My guess though, is that the Note 2 willl be released around November this year.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] vivek2701:
yeah in India, Samsung has done proper marketing for this phone. It has sold well too. I see a huge number of people using it here..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] wmwamidi:
Most people I meet, just look on and are surprised GNote fits in my standard trouser pockets! Confused with a 7" tab.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] profcx:
Hi all. I really hope that a Note II comes along. I'm absolutely loving my GNote. The size is perfect!! I'm from Trinidad and the reactions that I've had have been split 50-50. For everyone that wants one, someone else thinks it's massive and they wonder....how can that fit in your pocket?!? Silly question really...standard pockets have ample room for the GNote. Unless you're a chick....or a guy who's metro or something....:D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DaanJordaan:
Here in the Netherlands there is an amazing amount of people who have the Note.

I see them literally everywhere.

Sammy has advertised a lot on T.V. and bus stops.

It's unbelievable, they keep popping up.

Although it is a device not so hard to miss right;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lee yun khong:
In Malaysia, Samsung did a great promotion. My company have around 40 staff, we have 7 staff using galaxy note including myself.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tbong777:
I have yet to see one Note in actual use here. See alot of S2.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] CoopZor:
Here in Belgium i'm the only one in my surrounding who has one.

Commercials do come but rarely.

The reactions are they make fun of me like, wow you have brought you'r tv ? and so on, i dont think its funny but hey, everybody who steps out of the circle will be mucked i guess ? :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
I just went to thailand and there is a ginormous billboard ad for the note outside the Bangkok airport.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] netoperek:
People who say that Note is too large, do not have it :d
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] geonahta:
Everybody is a comedian these days :-)

There was a report of 250.000.000 note sized phones by 2015. I guess it will be the note 4 by then. Apparently from more manufacturers.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sdequant:
That's so true :p I'm also the only one in my surrounding who has a Note and they all make fun of me.. "Whoah you bought yourself a boat!" :(

It's sad that the advertising for the Note hasn't been that big in our country.. people don't even know what it is & that's a damn shame.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] panyan:
it takes a special sort of person to have a note - it is so large that it is a statement about your confidence and knowledge of technology

i look upon those with smaller devices with pity

and i drop change for people with a windows phone...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lewisteo:
in singapore, i see them everywhere, the last time am in a pub, this girl ask to play with my note a.d immediately go for the pen, but too bad, that night i am with cm9 and she insist my note is faulty.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] stoney73:
+1 And ROFL about people with a windows feature phone....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dekky18:
The best thing about Note is when chicks notice my phone they shout...omg its so BIGGG.

Yea baby...it is...:-P :-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] decat:
I bought one because one of my collegues just bought one, I was damn impressed and the Note is just what I needed. :D

But they do make fun of it indeed, at bars they ask me why I brought my laptop.

I mostly answer that I can't afford glasses or an iPhone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] leppo:
With any luck, there will be a Nexus Note.

[HTC One X] hwoarang626:
dear XDA members ,,, as i got a lot of solutions in this form and i see the OTA updates are making problems for many users ,,, here is the solution for people who unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM recovery ......

ON STOCK ROM ...

1- you dont need to relock the bootloader ..

2- download voodoo rootkeeper .. (from market) and run the program and click protect root.

3- you will need your original recovery that you changed to CWM ..

example: if you had 1.28.415.9 and you installed CWM then you need recovery.img for 1.28.415.9 .

install the stock recovery from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24738635#post24738635

4-install recovery.img from fastboot ..

5-boot into phone and OTA update the one x to 1.29.xxx .

6-after update is done just open rootkeeper and click restore root ,,

7-DONE

a big thanks for xda members and im happy to help ...
[HTC One X] stiffmast3r:
Nice m8
[HTC One X] Try4Ce:
Actually I never really had to relock the bootloader to apply an OTA... just flashing the stock recovery and keeping the unlocked bootloader + rooted custom ROM did the trick for me... Tho its not a really good idea to install an OTA patch on top of a custom ROM.
[HTC One X] hwoarang626:
i added ( FOR STOCK ) what i know if you have custom rom you wont receive OTA ... will you ???!!!! ... my solution is about if you are still on Stock ...

if you search google youll see people talking about locking the bootloader and removing root and all kind of crap ...
[HTC One X] j4n87:
...since the radio is part of the rom now and the only "advantage" of flashing a RUU is an hboot update.

So what is the "advantage" of an newer hboot? If someone finds an exploit on the 0.43 hboot which is fixed on newer hboots you gonna cry (-:

So my advice..stay on lowest hboot until we get S-OFF.
[HTC One X] cruiseyunfat:
I also didn't have to relock my bootloader.

Just restored my default back up with cwm before root. Fastboot restore to original recovery (stock), update and done. Went back to fastboot and restored cwm, rooted the phone and done.
[HTC One X] john9:
me too.
[HTC One X] RichmondoUK:
Totally agree lower the better! Good advice
[HTC One X] godutch:
Has this been confirmed, that the radio is flashed when flashing a rom?
[HTC One X] floepie:
DELETE.

Do you think this would work for HOS? Thanks for posting this, much appreciated, will let you kow how it works out for the HOS :cool:

May I post this in the HOS Section ? Thanks
[HTC One X] Sebianoti:
What i did was flashed stock recovery, downloaded and installed the update done, that's all i did and root was intact, that was like last month
[HTC One X] voryzen:
I'm still haven't issues installing the OTA update.

I followed your instructions and I still get the red triangle error

EDIT:

just did some fishing, and it's because my stock rom is so heavily modified that the OTA won't update anything
[HTC One X] ah_cleo:
hi, quick check, do i still need to flash back CWM or it will include back CWM?
[HTC One X] voryzen:
the OTA will not include CWM, as CWM is not stock.
[HTC One X] dandat:
thanks you made my day :D
[HTC One X] mickyw1980:
Forgive me for the noob question but how would one find out which stock recovery was on phone before I flashed cwm. Didn't take note before hand

[HTC One X] dezborders:
Whatever Rom version is shown in "about" e.g. 1.26, 1.28, 1.29 , then this is the recovery version you need
[HTC One X] Warell:
My phone version is 1.29.720.11, but in the OP link, I can find only 1.29.401.7 and 1.29.401.11. What can I do?

Thanks in advance
[HTC One X] dezborders:
I believe recovery versions match the first 3 numbers only eg 1.29 in your case... So just flash a 1.29 recovery file. If I am wrong someone please correct me :)
[HTC One X] Warell:
I don´t know... it it is really the case, then why there are two files starting with 1.29? Sounds intriguing... :)
[HTC One X] TracZ:
I tried everything, and it just doens't work for me, so what the hell did I do wrong.

I have installed 1.29.401.27 on my phone, so I downloaded the file "recovery-1-29-401-7.img" and flashed it with fastboot, everything worked just fine.

But when I try to update an OTA, it seems to work in the first moment, but it stops at the half and a red warning triangle appears. After 2 mins, the phone just reboot and nothing has happened...

So what's the problem?
[HTC One X] scorpio50:
DEV if you elaborate the recovery part more it will be very ease for all of us.

---------- Post added at 01:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:32 PM ----------

when i falsh recovery and try to update the OTA after reboot the installation begins but after 1st quarter it stops and red triangle came at top right corner of mobile icon.

help plz.
[HTC One X] TracZ:
Thx for the great help guys, especially the thread maker!
[HTC One X] bxlogic:
whats the big changes to the ota update anyway should i update it or no? if its the same then why update :)
[HTC One X] Zulake:
Might be a bit late to the party, but here's a nice guide to help you guys.
[HTC One X] Warell:
The exacly same thing is happening to me.

I have the stock 1.29.720.11, rooted and bootloader unlocked.

I was using the CWM recovery, but I already flashed the stock recovery.

When I attempt to do a OTA update, it start, but then stop with the red warning triangle (error status 7).

Can someone please help me with this? I want to do a OTA update to version 2.X, and keep the root.

Thanks a lot!
[HTC One X] HateSoul:
Ditto. it's really frustrating, i am running rooted stock rom 1.29.415.11(no modification done to the rom) and i tried with all the stock recoveries available on the link you provided and nothing seem to work always get stuck in the middle with the red triangle. wish someone could shine a light on this.
[HTC One X] areestocrat:
i received my ota 4.0.4 update and i was having the same problem as with some of you guys.

i nearly got a mini heart attack when i saw that cursed red triangle on the recovery because i was on stock rooted rom.

i've done all the required procedure OP was suggesting but there it was the red triangle.

so here was the steps I've done to succesfully update OTA for my device.

1. Find the right recovery for your software number just to be safe. Extract it from the RUU matching your software number.

here's a great tutorial for extracting your recovery from RUU. make sure that your PC is able to view hidden files.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30574349&postcount=859

2. If you have a nandroid backup of your clean slate rooted stock rom, restore it now via CWM. I believe that the bloatware i removed via titanium backup is needed to successfully update OTA because they were in the system directory.

3. Else procedure is as the same with OP. save your root with voodoo rootkeeper. restore your htc original recovery via fastboot. reboot and update OTA until finish. OTA will install in recovery. phone will restart with your new updated android and software. restore root via voodoo rootkeeper.

Good luck with it! :highfive:

Will this method work for the upcoming jellybean update or is it just valid for the 4.0.4 OTA
[HTC One X] shadehh:
A question; is it absoloutley necessary to update hboot, or in other words can boot make the system run better? I'm concerned because I heard that with the new firmware update (jelly bean), we are getting an boot update. Does that mean that I cannot upgrade my device to jelly bean? Because I do not have my official ruu and my official ruubhasnt been released yet and me dummy didn't make a nan droid back up.. so what's the deal in my case?

Unable to OTA

Hi not sure if this is the right place to post but here goes:

In short I'm unable to get OTA updates on my TEGRA HOX - no matter how many times I check it tells me that there are no updates available for my phone. I'll lay out below some general info and also what I've done to my HOX since purchase to see if there's something I've missed;

CID: HTC_001 (S-ON)

Unlocked Bootloader using HTC DEV method

HBOOT 1.31

Flashed CWM as my recovery

The orginal 401 WWE ROM as shipped was 1.29.401.11 but I've flashed 1.29.401.12 shortly after purchasing the HOX

Lots of stuff uninstalled or frozen using Titanium backup - could this be the problem?

Anyway I've removed CWM by flashing back to the stock 1.29.401.12 recovery.img but still unable to get OTAs.

Does anyone have any ideas as I'm still stuck on 4.0.1 and it's really grinding my gears?
[HTC One X] west2cool:
you need to have 1.29.401.11 in order to receive the OTA
[HTC One X] alangordon73:
Do I need to reinstall the entire 1.29.401.11 RUU or just flash the boot and recovery img?
[HTC One X] alangordon73:
Tried this to no avail - flashing the indiviudal boot and recovery doesnt give me OTA. Trying to go back to stock then RUU downgrade fails with 'error [140] bootloader version error' as does trying to flash the rom.zip in fastboot - it produces the following error: 'FAILED (remote: 43 main version check fail)'

Any ideas? HBoot version?
[HTC One X] aras1:
i don't get it:eek:

i am on arhd 9.7.2 now but i want to upgrade to jellybean (i know it isn't possible (my cid: H3G__01 ) but what are you guys talking about?

should i just install a stock ruu and try to get the jellybean update over the air?

am i right? if not can someone help me to understand the situation :D
[HTC One X] ClydeB1:
Yes, the JB upgrade will be pushed out as an OTA upgrade, and in order to get this you need to be on a stock rom and with stock recovery. However you have a branded device and will need to wait until your operator releases the update. Currently the only JB OTA that has been released was to Taiwan. Everyone else is still waiting.

---------- Post added at 09:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 PM ----------

In order to get an OTA you need to be on a full stock rom and as you have already updated your hboot to 1.31, there isn't any ruu that you can flash as the highest ruu for your region currently is 2.17.401 (hboot 1.12). Without s-off it is not possible to downgrade the hboot version and so that's why the ruu flash fails.
[HTC One X] alangordon73:
Man I just love this phone (smell the sarcasm?) - Is there no way to set or trick the HOX into thinking the HBoot version is say 1.00?
[HTC One X] richardcbristol:
OTA for rooted Orange UK One X?

My software number/version is 1.29.061.11 at present and I have unlocked bootloaded and rooted phone.

Can I use this method and flash recovery-1-29-401-11.img, then do my OTA then re-flash CWM recovery? Or is that a bad idea...

I'd like to see what's in the Orange UK OTA. Probably not a lot but my phone does reboot every now and then (usually when charging via USB cable), plus a few minor bluetooth niggles for audio and I'm fairly sure they won't have fixed the pink tinge I get with photos sometimes (often not noticeable but...)

Would consider custom ROMs but so far I've stuck to stock rooted as I've spent a lot of time with my old Xperia X10i playing with ROMs and the stock is good enough on the One X that so far I've not been tempted :)
[HTC One X] ClydeB1:
You can try this

Recovery versions are the same across all region codes, so the recovery from 1.29.401 would be the same as the one on 1.29.061. There currently won't be a JB OTA for your device however.
[HTC One X] richardcbristol:
Well that's got me as far as the recovery running but after a short time the recovery errors with Red triangle with ! in the middle. I've seen that in other threads but nothing conclusive as to why it occurs or how to get past it.

After a while or the red triangle phone rebooted itself. Working but not updated. Wonder if it could be bacause USB cable was still connected?

Tried again without the USB cable plugged in. Same result. Any clues appreciated. Think I may have to go back to the drawing board
[HTC One X] alangordon73:
Worked a treat and my HOX was okay until I tried to perform an OTA - it appeared to apply okay but now my HOX is stuck in a bootloop
[HTC One X] richardcbristol:
Just done a factory reset and trying the OTA again. I flashed the stock recovery first. Bootloader still shows unlocked in stock recovery. Lets see what happens?

Incidentally the Update declares itself as Android 4.0.4 and HTC Sense 4.1. I'm on 4.0.3 and HTC Sense 4.0. Certainly think 4.0.4 is worth trying to do this for...

But I get a Red Triangle trying to install the OTA, even back on stock factor reset. Would love to know why. Going to try again after re-locking the bootloader. (although not sure why that should make a difference)

---------- Post added at 11:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 AM ----------

Still a Red Triangle. Have located the RUU for my device though. Gonna give that a go I think. As I'm still on stock worse that can happen is I brick my phone and have to use one of works HTC One XL's until work provide me with a replacement One X ;)
[HTC One X] richardcbristol:
Even after a RUU my recovery still shows RELOCKED bootloader rather than LOCKED. Again not sure why that would make a difference.

Final attempt at an OTA as if it don't work after an RUU udpate I'm thinking I'm out of options. And... it's working. Not sure what the difference was between my factory reset and installing the RUU but I'm now past the red triangle of death.

But my angry birds leet save files are no more of course. Amature mistake not to take a copy of those off the device first. Ah well. worse things happen at sea :)

And well worth all the pain! Now have HSPA+ capability (at least I'm seeing 3G+ icon now, wasn't before, on my work Evita devices I see this and H+) and my Orange download rate is uncapped and I'm in good HSPA+ coverage at home and at work. Result!
[HTC One X] ClydeB1:
Glad to hear it all worked eventually.
[HTC One X] richardcbristol:
Yep but only by locking the bootloader and re-loading RUU for me on Orange UK. Would be nice to know why. I don't have HSPA+ though, red herring. The update shows HSPA as 3G+ rather than H for some reason.
[HTC One X] ClydeB1:
As I understand it you can only apply an OTA to a completely stock rom. The OTA normally contains patches to certain of the files and are not complete files, therefore if it can't find the file to patch it will fail. I don't think the locking is necessary as you can lock to flash the ruu and then unlock again, but the stock ruu and stock recovery is required.
[HTC One X] richardcbristol:
Ah! That will probably explain it. I had a stock ROM rooted, *but* I'd deleted several applications from that stock rom that I didn't use. That probably cause the issue. Worth noting maybe in the main thread that if you're on a stock ROM rooted but have deleted core apps then the method may not work. I guess had I restored all the apps without doing custom reset then the OTA probably would have worked. But nevermind. Does a phone good to get a clear start from time to time :)

You need to flash the boot.img that is located in the nandroid backup folder, the stock recovery .... I guess its the 2.17. You can check by doing a fastboot command
