was looking through some of the settings and i noticed in the mobile network settings there is a checkbox for data roaming and national data roaming. can somebody explain the difference between the two? im guessing the national one is for international roaming maybe?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] info[]box1:
National data roaming is for easier data/voice access (free w/ your data plan BTW) so don't panic.

Example: GPS/Navigation when traveling switching from tower to tower. Towers which Sprint has data/voice roaming agreements with such as Verizon etc. (And vice versa as far as Sprint allowing Verizon's customers to roam on.

Etc Etc. Hope that helps a little.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Acedooncoon:
This might have been asked already but...does any one know if the next CM9 RC Rom (next RC Rom, meaning CM9 RC 3)will have the "Google Now" feat., or will it at least have any jelly bean feats.??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ryjabo:
That's in CM10.

*Swyped from a Jelly Bean

*XDA Premium
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] info[]box1:
We have to wait for the official CM10 release & development for that.

Google Now is pure Jelly Bean Android 4.1.x feature. I think team skank would have merged it already in the CM9 kang if its was possible. idk
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SorryGoFish:
I'm running RC2 and I can not select the "toggle LED flashlight" in Power Widget. Is there a fix for this? I think I saw something a few pages ago about this, but now I can't find it.

Thanks.

Edit I see this may be a problem across many phones for CM9.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Acedooncoon:
yea it has been like that since I rooted my GN for CM9...I thought it would have been running by now but...it still isnt...so im forced to use the actual "LED" app...sucks...but it is what it is.

just sold a rooted evo 4g, and the sprint store employee had trouble activating phone on new account. stated that some rooted phones cannot be activated because the device will properly update the profile/prl.

looking for some help on this, more sprint store bs or true situation. have another phone to sell.
[EVO 4G General] Robert542:
Put a stock rooted Rom on it and you should be able to activate it without any problems. I know my buddy had a problem activating his phone when it had cyanogenmod on it. Once flashed back to rooted stock he had no problems.
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Aosp ,sense 3.0/3.5 and ICS roms cannot be activated on the Evo 4g because they have no Epst.APk to access the dialer codes and programming menu required for activation. Any rom based on an official stock Evo rom or a rom with the Epst.apk will work for activation, once activated you can simply restore the aosp, sense 3.0/3.5 or ICS backup you created prior to flashing the stock rooted rom

We are legion, for we are many.
[EVO 4G General] jeeplj8:
OK - Mik based his his on official release of 2.3 so should be OK.

Thanks for the help.
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
As long as the rom is based on an Evo build (4.24, 4.67, etc) or states it has a working epst.apk it will work, I think Miks is a 2.1+3.0 rom as long as it was based off of the Evo shift for the 2.1 portion it should have epst.apk included and working, if it was ported from a phone for a different carrier it won't work unless the modified epst.apk was added in. I always use tommytomatoes classic to activate cuz its based off of the evo's own sense 1.0 roms and has the original epst.apk so i know it works 100% of the time. Nothing like being in the middle of activating the phone with chat or on a call and having to say "can you hold on a sec I need to flash a different rom to get my programming menu working" and then making them hold for 5 mins while you boot to recovery, wipe, flash, reboot and get into the dialer and access the menu to do the activation. I've done it a few times now, forgetting I was on cm7 and having to flash a sense rom to activate the phone :rolleyes:

We are legion, for we are many.

I was at step 6, but it failed.

I can't detect the phone in adb and if I try to just reboot it goes back to the green logo. How do I try the s-off process again? I was trying to search around but didn't find the thread.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] angieutc:
I tried to like the Galaxy Note. I really did. However, the size is just to overpowering for me. Plus, I couldn't shake the fact that the GS3 has come out as a more feature-proof device.

When I first got the phone, I was in LOVE, LUST, whatever! However, pulling it out of my purse begin to feel like a chore and the noticeable lag was not something I felt I had to deal with on a $600.00 phone. Now, I know you say, well stall a new launcher/rom. But guys, these treats should ADD to a phone not mask faults/shortcomings.

I have to say, after hearing that the Note II may be a bigger size, I have to wonder what brave soul would carry it? Soon, will be putting Ipads up to our ears!

All in all, I want to say that I have enjoyed the Note forums and have learned soo much. Kudos, to those who LOVE their phones and I wish you a smooth free experience going forward.

P.S. Not looking for a fight, please don't start one. We are entitled to our opinions. That's what makes the world go round :p

Any Note owners considering the move to the GS3? I'd love to hear from you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] azzledazzle:
Im sad you feel like that :( but i guess its personal preference,

For me Ive adapted to the size, at first it was overwhelming but now it feels normal, All other phones feel miniature lol !!

Im also considering the SGS3, but not to replace my Note ! I have 2 lines with my provider and ones almost up, So I think I may get the S3 or hold out for the note2

that being said, Phones are getting bigger and bigger now, The HTC One X is big, Hell even the SGS3 is big !!

I dont make a lot of calls, and when i do i have my head phones / bluetooth headset in, So i rarely need to hold it to my ear.

I love my ''Phablet'' !!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Dungeon47:
I could have bought an S3, but I chose the note instead. The S3 has a very slightly better camera sensor and two more cores on a slightly better CPU.

I see the Note's size as a plus, but that's entirely subjective. Both are great devices, and either will serve you well. Sometimes it takes a day or two to really know if you really like a device enough to keep it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M3TALLICA:
Today I asked a retailer if I could swap my SGN for S3.

I consider moving to S3 because of superbrick bug and screen issues.

But I'm still holding ..... isn't S3 another Samsung phone ?

Little confusion but I'll follow S3 forums and decide.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] futurama:
I was on the.original 5" bandwagon with the sell streak, I have had my note since November and I won't consider anything other than a note 2 for my next device.

There really is no going back from the.functionality of a 5" screen, for me at least.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shaolin95:
You are not masking anything..bad choice of words.

Using a better ROM makes the phone faster and a lot smoother. There is no masking involved is all too real and proves that is not a hardware fault.

I do it with every phone and in the case of the NOTE. I am not changing unless it is for a NOTE 2 or similar.

Regards
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rerp:
^I agree with this guy.

Take some time to consider such a concept:

Ever heard of these little battery-powered race cars from some years ago?

You buy one, Car A, and it goes like say, just for the sake of an example, 20mph. You buy another one, Car B, and it goes for 15mph.

Then you get yourself some aftermarket parts - engines, wheels, or whatever, and modified both Car A and Car B and now you're sure they are both in their fastest. After doing that, Car A now goes at 30mph, while Car B goes at 40mph. Car B is faster now even if it was slower to begin with. It had more potential than Car A - but that won't be realized without some effort on your part. Also, it's also useful to note that the manufacturers of these two cars may be different from each other and may also not be expecting what you intend to do modify their cars as well.

Heck, why am I even using toy cars as a comparison? Should've went straight to phone comparisons and the text would've been much shorter. XD

Anyway, I'm assuming you have a Note. Try not to throw it away and just play with it. Maybe you'll find time to like it some day.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] gee2012:
This is the best phone i ever had and i don`t feel the need to buy the Galaxy S3.

I`am not realy fond of touchwizz so i am running CM9, the phone is super fast, has no lags and does work as it is supposed to be.

I love the big screen for browsing, games, video`s and photo`s.

I will probably only change for the Note 2 :victory:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] angieutc:
Difference of opinion. I stand by my original statement. I even upgraded to ICS and while it made some difference in smoothness, the results were negligible plus it added some problems.

Adding to my original post. I also think the Note is going to become the red-headed step-child now that the GS3 is out. May not be true, but that is my gut feeling. Besides, I bought my note, last week -- Technically, I'm already using outdated equipment. For those who are passed their return windows, the Note is great, but for those who still have time to AT LEAST play with the SG3, I would.

Loving the conversation :cowboy:

The only my 1 BIG reason getting the Note is S-pen. It really saves my work days apart from other BIG cool features.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] warboat:
do you really need it?

I'm sensing that you don't need a Note or the S3.

The note is all about utility and function, not form or fashion.

Are you just uncomfortable with not having the latest?

Just how fast/smooth do you need it to be?

If UI speed is your main concern, you need Windows Phone 7.

Looks like you want a WP7 phone like a Lumia 900.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] gotaphone:
Interesting discussion, and I'd like to post my opinion as well.

What clearly differentiates the Note from other phones is the size. And the pen. I almost forgot about the pen, as I hardly use it. For me, a Note would be equally fine if it came without the pen. Some will disagree here, as they have other usage requirements.

I deliberately chose the Note due to the screen size. I had iphone and other phones, and I use the phone frequently to watch movies and to browse the web during my frequent travels. Having used iphone and others previously, I got more and more depressed with the small screens. I can say that I appreciate the Note's larger screen and its great resultion. It makes these tasks simply more fun.

If someone performs tasks such as phone calls and SMS, the larger screen size does not benefit (much). So appreciation with the phone is releated to its use.

So I believe the phone serves people with certain specific requirements, and other features/functions are then simply less important.

Unfortunately for me, watching movies is somewhat affected by the bad screen gamma as reported at many several in the forum. But I still would not want to change back to a smaller size, as I am not much disturbed by it and I can live with the issue (also because my screen is by far not as bad as what some guys report here).

If I ever (have to) change the phone, I wish it would have the following characteristics:

1. Approx. same screen size, but certainly not smaller

2. No gamma issue / better gamma calibration

3. Better back camera (better sharpness, less distortion, better light sensitivity)

4. Provide root access out of the box (no jailbreak/rooting required)

5. Better battery life of Android OS (probably requires better software programming skills)

Performance-wise, I am totally happy with what I have now, and I am not requiring more CPU cores or higher frequency. My phone has been totally responsive all the time out of the box since November 2011.

I had GB 2.3.5, 2.3.6 and ICS 4.0.3, am now on Paranoid Android 0.4 as I totally disliked the email app in ICS. So the operating system still matters somewhat. So it is good to have a choice here.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Final5k:
The only time I feel that the Note is too big is when I am in "dangerous" zones in the city where people could snatch your phone anytime! I mean if you take out a smaller phone, it would probably go unnoticed at 60% of times, but with the Note out in your hands, this huge beast will surely attracts everyone's attention in 99% rate!

Otherwise, I never encountered any so called problems that many people are complaining about!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Akiainavas:
Some adapt to Note's size, some don't. Good thing is that we have a choice. I'm really against Apple-like "one size fits all" philosophy.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rilpromen:
from a gamer's perspective i say : f*ck all other phones, the screen is just perfect for my taste.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Sean_FD2R:
I do feel the same, it was huge at the beginning but I have adapted the size slowly and looking at fruit phone is like a toy phone. LOL

I might wanna wait for Note 2 too as I'm getting used to it's size.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] crawlgsx:
Glad to see this has stayed civil!

I keep thinking about ordering an S3, but just because of boredom/stuffitis/Its new. Thankfully so far every time that kicks in my brain says oh wait, you'll be bored with that in a day too and then you'll have a smaller screen *slap*, no thanks.

The big size is not for everyone so I can understand and respect that decision alone. That said It is my favorite thing about the Note and it why I purchased the note in the first place (Instead of say a Galaxy Nexus or One X etc).

You mention the dated tech, but honestly buying a Galaxy S3 is only maybe a TINY fraction better as far as that goes. The S3 will be dated in months, replaced by something better and faster (Note 2 lol). Don't try to buy what is the fastest or feel any bit down because you bought "old" tech, in this field (and all electronics) anything you buy is outdated tech well before you own it. S3 is out, S4 is in the works (naming may change), and that is just 1 Manufacturer.

For me the Note is silky smooth (fastest phone I have owned so far) and has amazing battery life compared to most phones I have owned (smart phones) and the screen is just amazing. For me going to something like the S3 might be exciting for a day or two, but in the end when I really think about it, the s3 is a downgrade FOR ME. For you, it may be the best thing since sliced bread :good:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ngocdao:
I played with US gs3 yesterday and although I like it.. I do miss the screen size and pen to draw with.

Its okay, just like how Android isn't for everyone, so is the Note. We shouldn't chase after the best phone but more so the best phone for us--that fits and fulfills our needs.

I think when gs3 upgrades to JB it will become more desirable for us notelovers
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] THUDUK:
My note seems to be getting smaller, until I hold it up to another phone, then I remember the days before my note.
