As soon as you leave samsung you will have to meet worse companies. I did, so I know.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zkyevolved:
Really? I think Samsung is a very good company. I'm no Samsung fanboy but if a better device comes along I'll buy it. So far the note has been with me through thick and thin. This is the third longest smartphone I've ever had. That means something.

The note has issues. Sure. But you can get around some of them. The brick bug? Don't upgrade to stock ics. I did and I didn't like it for other reasons. It was their first attempt and a good one but still. I have had a ton of phones and Samsung generally has had the least amount of bugs for my use. Apple was bad. I sent back 4 before just selling the new one they gave me. Blackberry had issues, too. Motorola as well. Every device has problems. I just think Samsung generally does a good job.

The note is still a somewhat flagship device for what it is. I think well get a lot more updates. I hope so at least. Regardless in another 6 month's I'll one upgrading to another decide. Hopefully the note 2. If not it'll be another device with a large screen and higher specs.

If you don't like Samsung or their policy that's fine, trade sell buy. Just because they're not working for you doesn't mean another company won't either. But be warned: every device has issues. Otherwise if a perfect device ever comes.out then that's it. No more upgrading ever. It's somewhat intentional. Most companies keep the newest tech for the next device to keep you upgrading at least every 2 years.

I have always thought of Samsung as "Scheissung" and was always scared by their plastic feel... but S2 and Note is great, and i'm hooked up because of one thing: AMOLED displays. Until some other brand will make phones with AMOLED, i am staying with Samsung. I know that AMOLED displays have some issues, but it's relatively new technology, and I seriously believe that AMOLED is the future of displays - but that apart, i just love the blacks and rich colours ;)

Ok so I got a little flash happy today and during the course of it I messed up my IMEI to all symbols. I went and reflashed everything about 10 times and tried to restore my efs backup from my card.

I guess that my efs backup became messed up because none of the times has it fixed my IMEI like it has in the past. I have another efs backup on the sd card and I remember reading somewhere that I can manually push the files.

I just cannot figure out what to push to restore the IMEI back to normal. I have pushed the EFS backup tar and got data back but with my IMEI still all symbols.

Can anyone tell me what files to push? I would greatly appreciate it :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Have you flashed the efs_restore zip? I think there is a method posted in FB's unlocker thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jigglynuts:
Yes I have tried flashing the efs_restore zip so many times. I have no idea what happened on why it is not working. I have tried every MTD rom to date and I have always used the restore without an issue.... until today, when everything just stopped working. I do not get any errors during the restore zip and it appears it works until I boot my phone and check my IMEI
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Maybe you just need to go back to kj6 via heimdall.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eb13:
If you have a backup if your efs (the efs folder itself) you can just copy to the root directory and overwrite the corrupted one then reboot. It's the easiest way to fix it if you have a copy if the folder
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
You didn't try going back to stock yet? Tisk tisk. Do that. Check that your signal/IMEI works on a stock rom, then flash AOKP from that, then flash CM9 or MIUIv4 after that. AOKP has the updater.sh fix that allows you to flash directly from BML so do that first.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jigglynuts:
Lol I was going to but I was at work when it happened. Thats what i did when i got home. I knew I could go back to stock but I knew I had read a way to do it without going back so I really was more curious that I could not figure it out. Going back was really painless and fixed the issue.

I was more looking for the info posted above on how to do so manually. Thanks for the info... now I know for the future ha. I will give out thanks and add solved to thread title when I get to a computer. Thanks everyone :)

Hi,

I have a Samsung S2 lock in 3 UK with ICS software.

How can unlock this phone ?

Thank you
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dominatordave:
Hey all -

I've done a fair amount of reading regarding this issue, to no avail. My programming knowledge is limited but I do have experience rooting and flashing ROMs on another device. Anyway....Rooted, unlocked bootloader, flashed CWM 5.8.3.1. Following this, I downloaded MIUI.us v4 2.6.22 ICS on my SD card, factory reset, and flashed it via CWM.

Seems to work alright, but I cannot access my SD card from anywhere. MIUI won't recognize it, CWM says it can't be mounted. I somehow created a partition on the SD through CWM, but it did not help. I tried re flashing CWM, with similar results. Not sure as to what the next step would be - re flash MIUI, relock bootloader/flash stock RUU...? Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

One x doesn't have a memory card..if your unable to access your inbuilt storage....to fix this...relock your bootloader, flash ruu, you should be good then
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
The built in storage is still seen as an sd card by the OS. That's why its path is /sdcard.

But yeah, the first thing I would do would be to relock your bootloader and run an RUU.

Hi All,

I was searching for USB Dock for Note and found THIS on eBay.

for only $6.78 + Free Shipping :laugh:

I saw many of THE SAME docks going for $19.99 - $24.99 on eBay and Amazon,So this is definitely a good Deal IMO.

One Another Good thing is Economy International Shipping is also cheap on this.

only $1.99 to INDIA in my case. So gifted one to my buddy!!!

I dont know if I plug in MHL cable in back and use it as HDMI Dock:confused:

That would be awesome;)

Thnx.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] RobTheRover:
I ordered one of these to station on my bedside cabinet, so my note would act as a nice alarm clock. The unit is reasonably solid, but feels a little unstable out of the box (it wants to tip over backwards if placed on a less than solid surface, e.g. carpet)). However, once you plug your power cable into it this seems to help with the stability due to the location of the socket.

The unit itself has a very subtle light on the top, like a thin white crescent, to show when the unit is powered, and the contour of the aperture fits the Note's body perfectly. In fact, it holds it incredibly tightly, so I have no risk of accidentally knocking the note out of the cradle during a particularly robust "bedroom gymnastics" session with Mrs RTR, if you get my drift.

All in all, I'm more than happy with mine.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] heavyharmonies:
I tried a few different docks, but ultimately decided to go dock-free, simply because these docks are pretty much only usable with the Note naked, whereas I prefer leaving my Note in its case 24-7.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] chils41:
Cool bro.

Thnx for the input.

I bought two for me and was wondering if they any good. Dose it do HDMI our if connected to charger via MHL ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] chils41:
I don't blame you.

But I almost never use any phone with cases. I sure buy couple but like after week or two stop using them.They make them phones thick.

But I recently dropped my note , and it has scratch/ding :(. So back to case till the dock arrives.:D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Ineedtoys:
There are some docks now appearing which have removable rubber inserts which claim to accommodate the Note with a Gel/TPU case, e.g.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Desktop-C...-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-i9220-AC32-/170817592805

Anybody tried one?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] rajalm29:
Thanks.

BTW I offered the seller 5.99 ea. for two,he gave me $6.49 for TWO.

So try offering him lower price. not a huge saving but hey dosent hurt to try!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ravi_buz:
Can we connect MHL cable to this dock? that would be really great!

Just read the description on the eBay page and looks like it ships only with the cradle and no cable included ...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] chils41:
MHL dont work!

Well apparently, this dock is only good for charging / desk clock only.

you can not use MHL cable behind the dock and HDMI out.

It doses charges via MHL cable but dose not do HDMI out.:eek:

I know tht part sucks the most, but that is what it is.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Geekybiker:
I have the same one from deal extreme. The dock was a little snug at first, but has loosened to a great fit. I've been using my phone as an alarm clock for a long time now and I can finally see the dang thing without picking it up now. Only thing I wish it had was a home button on the base so I could wake the phone without pushing it back. Overall I'm very happy for $12 shipped.

Great deal. Just bought one. Thanks for the info.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Kangal:
Okay, I just got mine today. Been playing with it the last 2 hours.

Here's the link:

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/270968541480?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

Pros:

- $12 (sort of cheap)

- BLACK COLOUR Mother*Ker!!!

- The large phone doesn't tip over unlike the other stands

- Supports a naked Note (cover the groove with the provided silicon)

- Supports the NOTE with a case (silicon/famous TPU-Kickstand)

- The microUSB is strong, but needs gentle care otherwise it can crack

- The black rubber feet are decently grippy

- Easy to disassemble/reassemble

- Can be positioned Upright (per usual), Sideways and it won't tip over ("landscape mode"), and Reverse so that its on an obtuse angle like a Apple's Smartcover for iPad.

And it won't be unplugged from the port.

Cons:

- There's a small "hole" inside the groove for the loudspeaker.

The hole is too small, and distorts the sound a little, which makes the notes puny speakers even quiter

- Weight is just enough, but I would've preferred a little more.

- Cheap glossy plastic will scratch easily, still looks good though

Features:

- Only "direct micro usb connection"

- Charges the note ONLY (via PC or charger)

- No Sync to PC (cannot recognize)

- No USB-OTG support

- No MHL support

Overall recommendation:

- Get this as an Alarm/Charge stand

- Try to mod it

- Otherwise don't get it.

Future references:

- I'm on a CM9 ROM, that could be the reason why dock=PC couldn't recognize it, though I doubt it.

- Stock Samsung TouchWizz ROM may allow it to work for PC Sync, OTG, MHL... I've yet to test it.

- I can [MOD] this dock, and replace the innards with a Normal microUSB extender, OTG-extender, or MHL-extender. It would require shaving the ports slightly, and drilling holes for any new connectors (HDMI/USB female).

- I can put in a USB-female AND HDMI-out on the dock, but I'd need a switch to divert between one or the other. Can't do them simultaneously. This would require serious time/effort to split each and implement the switch, I don't think I can pull it off but its possible to do.

Sound off in the comments for your opinion on this matter.

Hi folks,

Got the dock from the first message today.

And to my surprise it's quite nice, the problem is that my note is protected by external case and it won't fit in the dock tray since it's exactly the size of the phone. So I was looking for a case that would fit and found a flip cover that replaces the battery cover, and I would like to know if anyone knows if it actually fits in this dock.

Thank you!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] peseta:
I own this dock for more than 6 months and hardly use it because only a "naked" G-Note fits (actually even then a tight fit). I also think it's not stable enough, the foot print is a bit too small for such a big phone, so you can topple it quite easily if you bump against it with your hand or arm.

I also use a flip cover like you mention, which makes the back a bit thicker and it doesn't fit in the dock with it.

The only practical protection if you want to use such a dock regularly is a slip-cover/pouch or a case which you can easily slide the phone in/out. You can buy a slip-cover from $5 for fake and from $10 for genuine leather (or a bit more for some nicer quality).

I use a "Rock" case for that (can't find a link at the moment, bought it for about $20 from dx.com and think I've seen it on Ebay as well), quite practical with a down flip and sturdy enough for adequate protection.

Hi,

Thank you for the tips.

I agree that the Gnote fits too tight on this dock, hopefully it'll get a little "better" with the time of use. Regarding the footprint, I don't think it's unstable, on the contrary...

About the flip cover, there is this specific model on ebay that replaces the battery cover and I believe will not change the thickness of my phone at all. This cover is not very usual the other type in which in fit the phone inside is much more popular.

Take a look on ebay for: "PU Leather Battery Flip Case Cover For Samsung Galaxy Note"

Anyway, thank you again...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] peseta:
I'm afraid I have to disappoint you: that flip cover won't fit this dock. Besides the fact that this cover on the back is a bit larger than the original, the dock doesn't have any extra room on the aside of the phone to fit anything extra, like the flip that goes around the side.

But for that price the risk isn't too high and you'll probably will use that flip cover at least a few times anyway (I find this kind very practical in situations that you don't need too much protection as it protects only the screen and a little bit the camera because the extra thickness of the back)

These are covered in the "Master List" but that doesn't seem like the appropriate forum to discuss specific items on the list in detail...

Samsung Galaxy S® III Ultra Slim Cover - 2 Pack

Does anyone have one of these? What are your thoughts? Exactly how thin are these things?

There's three main reasons that I never use a case:

There's only so much room in my pocket as it is

Decreases sexiness

I use mounts that are designed specifically for my phone. A case would get in the way of that.

If I am to believe their marketing... "The case is ultra slim, giving you the feeling that it's not even there"... then it would seem like at least #1 and #2 on my list would not be as much of a concern. #3 would probably still be an issue, but who knows. I plan on getting a ProClip holder for my SGSIII, and I've never had one before so I don't know exactly how snug it will be. If this cover really is as thin as they make it sound, maybe it'll even fit in that too.

Thoughts?

P.S. Show of hands... who saw "ultra slim, giving you the feeling that it's not even there" and immediately wanted to make a sexual joke?
