Still no network setup.... as promised a second time. You can blame AT&T all you want, but that is just for the love of Nokia... Look brother in Law is visiting with his Galaxy S III and he gets smoked left and right with directions, weather, searching, voice texting.... and beleive it or not by the camera, all his vids are over exposed not as crisp... the pics of things fairly close are blowing his Galaxy out of the water. I love my Lumia, still not a fan of Nokia Support
[Nokia Lumia 900] truffle1234:
you are right about the camera, my wife uses the S3 as its a company phone, and when we do skype the image on video call is bad..

i like the size of the galaxy S3 very thin, great screen, good battery life, but the only downside is the OS, if it comes in Windows Phone i will buy...

I am now happy, too bad I doubted them. I can admit that. Will your ego allow you to let it go? Just becuase it's there now and I have no more complaints, doesn't mean that somehow you knew something or that Nokia handled it in such a smashing honest fashion. Like somehow, this tarnishes your prescious device. The Lumia 900 is an excellent device!! :rolleyes:

If you want Windows 8 buy a computer, if you want better photo/video quality buy a photo/video camera, if you want better sound quality buy a good speakers or surround system, want to watch movies in HD buy a TV, nokia builds its phones for using it as a phone that can: make/accept calls, send/recieve massages, quick access to the internet from your pocket. Listen to music And take a pictures/videos of moments of your life so you don't miss it. 10 years ago we had phones that did not even have mp3 in it, everything we could do is just call and text and everyone was happy. Now people wants to much, best car, best phone, girl/wife, house for cheapest price. Nokia, Samsung, HTC, Sony and other companies trying their the best to develop their technologies of course it coast money for them too, and as every business who spend money on something wants to get this money back at least in equal amount or double sized. You don't like that you phone wont get a WP8, or android ICS4, or iOS6,7,9,10 buy more expencive phone. Insted of lots of complaints try to help at least moral. And be respectful to developers. Software builds on people needs, we use to work on windows 98 and it was beyond the world for us, now we have windows 7 that people say it sucks, wr had android gb on our phones and that felt awesome, today we have android 4 and everyone complains, iphones had iOS 1 or ehatever was the first one everyone was like OMG this phone is the best today we have iOS5 and everyone complains. All problems comes from curve fingers lol
[Nokia Lumia 900] go0gle:
I got a white one to see what I can expect with NT in terms of user experience.. I really like the UX, nice work by Microsoft. The design is amazing, built quality too. I was impressed overall, but its far from being ready to replace Symbian for my usage.. from what I read WP8 will take care of most things I don't like about it like mass storage mode, bt sharing, better camera drivers maybe..

The UX is much better than Symbian, easier I guess, but the multitasking is not as good overall, again.. my hopes are on NT.

Nokia Maps works way better on Symbian than it does on WP btw, which makes sense I guess since they've been optimizing the Symbian version for quite some time.

The camera.. it sucks compared to my 808, but I think its fine compared to most other smartphones. Video and sound recording.. same thing, no contest, but that is true for all other smartphone, the 808 is pretty much on another level when it comes to that.

Here are couple of clicks, 808 on top

don't worry lumia will have the pure view camera soon... but it will be a fat phone ... I am happy with my lumia 900 photo quality...
[Nokia Lumia 900] go0gle:
It won't be any time soon.. there will be some form of it, but not the "pro" version they have on the 808.

I hear the camera got better after the last update ?
[Nokia Lumia 900] nanoware:
From what I have read, the initial windows phone 8 devices will use a SoC that only supports up to 20 mp camera sensor. Of course, that doesn't mean Nokia can't bring over the over sampling feature and other stuff from the 808 that makes the pictures look amazing.

Edit:

I should note it is possible for Nokia to use a separate processor for imagery, so who knows.

When i find the link to the blog I read I'll post itnhere
[Nokia Lumia 900] luonchinguoc:
Only one concern is about the network support only.

The Lumia 900 with WP seems to be ok with me from what I have read here. Thanks so much.

:good:
[Nokia Lumia 900] go0gle:
The pureview tech from the 808 needs a GPU+DSP combo which, as far as I know, needs a real-time kernel (EKA2-Symbian) to operate properly. Win NT has a monolithic core.. so no go for now. They will have to wait for someone to come up with a SoC that can handle all the processing, until then.. PureView will be mostly marketing on WP8 Nokias.

This is interesting. I swapped my Lumia 900 because of the purple screen issue and the GPS on my second handset does seem weaker.

Yes wife is using it on T-Mobile with MMS, when you reboot the phone it auto launches and recognizes T-Mobile. Unfortunately she only gets EDGE, but I hear faster speeds are coming to support ported iPhones.

[Q] Could anyone rescue my GALAXY NOTE that　bricked by formatting /system partition?

I'm new for android modding.

Today, my galaxy note was completely bricked.

"Volume Up/Down"+"Centre"+"Power" Button doesn't make anything. Display is not turn on.

I think that occured by my fault that breaking /system partition by "mount /system" method of CWM.

I though that makes same effect as typing "adb remount" in console.

It was displayed "formatting /system", and freezed, finally blacked out.

Could anyone give me idea to rescue my galaxy note?

And with this case, Is USB jig effective?

Thank you for reading my funny English.

I hope you'll understand.

I tried both. Unfortunately, LCD are keep turned off.

But I found surface of above of battery (bottom of camera; probably near the CPU?) was slightly heating.

My battery was nealy fully charged when running CWM.

Backup battery also made nothing.

I think u need a usb JIG partner. U can buy it for 2-3 bucks or can prepare your own. if JIG sends you to download mode, you are good to go. just flash a stock GB rom with .PIT file. Either way you can go to Samsung repair centre. Now that u have got a 500$ worthy brick in ur hands, u should spend another 50-100$ to make it operational again.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] carbonassassin:
Does anyone else here feel like the note was just a temporary stepping stone before the s3? I mean support from Samsung about the notes black crush and emmc issue have been ignored, most of the devs have jumped ship (not that I blame them) but I just feel that in half a year the notes dev community is going to start grinding to a halt :/ its sad because its a wonderful device and I love it but it just seems to have been moved on from so quickly by everyone. I mean look at the amount gb dev for this device! ICS comes along finally and not much has been done to it because people have moved on. Its a real shame :/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] crawlgsx:
I have yet to own an Android phone that HASN'T happened to (large portion of Dev's/users moving on to the "latest and greatest").

We still have some great dev's though, I dont feel too worried.Along with the fact that many of us do not care for the S3 so I don't see as mass of an exodus as many previous Android phones I have owned.

That and it's not like we have a vast choice of phones to compete with the screen of the Note, which in all fairness, is why a majority of us are here. It would have to be a whole lot more of a phone for me to want to downgrade to a 4.8" screen, and that is NOT the S3.

Note 2 on the other hand... I suspect to see the Note community get much quieter ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] numbnutsuk:
I was only thinking the other day how quite the note development section is now a days.

Why?

There are only (for me) 4 or 5 custom roms that are of use to me. And only 2 of those see regularly updated. The rest are old and using old Sammy releases or cm9 of which i tried but never been a fan of. As for kennels their is only speedmod for me and hardcore does not seem to update very often and in my opinion is the only stable one but is lacking in development to reach his high standard.

I agree that with this device I would of expected a lot more going on with it.

Its a real Shame coos I too did expect more and its getting rather stale at present.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] baz77:
its how android market is in general buy newest next best thing a few months around the corner

Also note is distinct enough not to qualify for steppingstone in my humble opinion
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Café King:
I love my Note, probably the best device I've ever had... But I wish there were some kernels with bln! It really annoys me...

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] letters_to_cleo:
Personally? I have yet to see a device that scales the massive 5.3" size. Sure there WAS the DELL Streak before? but it's already been antiquated into oblivion (well there are still developers working on that device I believe, and most Streak users would bashed me for saying as an antiquated device :D).

Anyway again, It's not much but just a personal choice or preference on why most people have jump ship to ride on the S3 hype.. I truly believe, given the size comparison alone, My Note is still a strong contender in any given smartphone field.

People can be superficial nowadays... all want to catch on what's in and what's the latest... some are in just for the heck of it.. and mostly are for JUST THE HYPE of it.

It's cool to brag along nowadays.. when you got the latest quad-core phone.

Personally I don't give a damn about people going overboard to the S3.. I am fully contented with my Note and what it can bring to my needs.

and you know what?

I gotta tell you, I went to a pub last week, there was this moron who was brandishing and showing off on how cool his S3 was.. He showed to a lot of guys inside, how smart his phone is, he toyed around, savoring the delights of the dudes there, playing games, using his SMART STAY and his POP PLAY... I can clearly see he was getting a lot of Ohhss and ahhs.. from the crowd....

hmm.. so what did I do? hmmm, nothing.. I sat beside him, popup my NOTE and played POP UP video and open up my POP Browser and played youtube video inside it. I then drag the two apps side by side on my phone.

Conclusion? Nothing.. the poor bud (upon seeing my Note playing those videos) literally just walk out of the club!! :D :D

So again, there's no shame having this massive phone with massive capabilities and features.

It can par up with dem quad-core joes.. ANY TIME OF DAY.... yeah!!.

It is called technology. All things in technology are so called as "stepping stone".

:)

If there's no new products, means, technology go stagnant...

Means, developers are dead. No fantasy, no imagination, no development.

I like android, whereby the development is super fast. I thought I was just changing from froyo. :) Now we are on ICS alrd.

next will be Jellybean ? after that ? Will samsung stop the android, and move to Tizen ?

And it's a good strategy to use opensource like android, whereby, the software development can be just leave it to all developers. And manufacturers like samsung, htc, etc just concentrate on developing new products, and tease the end-users.

But, as a developers (programmers), just be frank... will you stay on old "toys" when the new "toys" are coming out ?

From what I know (since I'm a programmer also), I like to play with new toys. And if the new toys is much better, why not keeping on developing the new one ? As the old one, I will keep on maintain... But only when I can spare my time.

:victory:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] little-vince:
I don't see it as a stepping stone but more of a test run.

The phablet market was completely open and unknown. So Samsung being the crazy adventurer they are decided to step in and "give it a shot".

If results were good, they would release a bigger and better one and give that one more support.

If it failed then, meh.

Clearly it hasn't failed hence the upcoming release of Note 2.

I agree that we lack a large range of developers, as compared to more popular devices like the S2 or the Nexus, but because this is just like a "trial" I'm sure as the phablet category gets more popular the Note 2 will attract more incredible developers.

I'm starting a new thread because all the others I saw on this topic were 2 years old and that is a lifetime in technology world.

I accidentally forgot to take my phone out of my pocket when I went swimming. Worse it was a salt-water pool. So all the metal is corroded, no saving it. I had a Samsung Vibrant. But now looking for perhaps an upgrade.

What are some of the best models to buy? I'm not hugely into changing roms, I like to figure out one I like and stick with it. Also, I have T-mobile service.

So all I know on phone models are Samsung Galaxy S; SII, and SIII. Give me a good one please!

The new line of HTC phones, the One s and One X are pretty cool. Nice and light with amazing screens. The new HTC UI is also lovely.

the Samsung Galaxy S3 is also excellent. Quite similar in terms of weight and size to the HTC phones mentioned.

These are probably the best Android phones on the market at the moment. Theres also the iPhone 4S which is a great phone too, but with smaller screen size than most new Android devices.

Hope this helps

Sony has a flagship(high-end) phone called Xperia S. Hope that contributes to your choices.

Also, I have a tip for you, You should read online reviews on the phones that you are interested in, and, also read the specs carefully,You wont wanna end up with a 600MHz processor or a 2.x" screen, will you?

for me if i want to buy a new phone right now i'll buy galaxy nexus. because it gets the most up-to-date android right now that is jelly bean(4.1).

The UI is not so different from the ics but many updates in the software such project butter and google now. you can google it and you'll be suprise.

The project butter make it buttery smooth, it can even match up with quad-core galaxy s3

So for me.Nexus is the one

If Wi-Fi calling is less of an importance to you, I'd say +1 on the galaxy nexus all the way.

Please elaborate. Why the SII when the SIII is available?

Which brings me to my next question. Does anyone have both an SGSIII and an HTC One X? I'd really like some feedback for those two.

I'm so impressed with the quality materials and the feel of the One X in hand. While I only tried it in the AT&T store, I really like the build quality, the solid feel, and the UI didn't look too bad either. But I must admit, I'm really a big fan of SWYPE, as offered on the Samsung phones.

[General Questions and Answers] Korex86:
I would say the Samsung Galaxy S3 would be the best, but as far as I know it have still some software bugs which need to be improved. If you dont want to pay too much money for a phone, you can choose the Samsung Galaxy S2. I have this one and i am happy with it. it is fast enough for these things I do (use internet, watch some movies while in a bus or subway, listen to musik, learning and play sometimes a game).

The S3 have more features and is faster and so on, but its your choice.

Depend on money, on things you want to do with it and maybe a bit how much you want to show that you have the best ;)

I have a One X and just picked up an S3 for my buddy and every time I play with an S3, I like it less and less. From the horribly plastic build, to its ugly design, to the crappy bluish pentile screen. As far as I'm concerned the only benefits it provides over the One X are the SD slot and extra RAM. The One X is superior in every other regard.

oh yeah every other thing then tell me why the s3 ass rapes the one x in performance and battery? also amoled is better deeper colors if i want natural colors i look out of a window the s3 build quality is good the stuff its made out of is pollycarb the one x has TONS of issues from yellow spots on the screen to the coating on the plastic rubbing of the camera is basically the same till you go to low light conditions then the one x shines the screen on the s3 is Superior to the one x its the most responsive screen on a phone the colors is what you expect from a shining company the build quality is GREAT what its made out of and what the gloss feels like not so good the one x only shines in camera and those people that dont have a window now kindly go scream your rubbish somewhere else.;)
