Anybody can tell how to move apps to SD card ?

I am unable to move my apps from phone memory to SD card.

I have 64gb Sandisk Class 10 memory card.

I dont get any options to move them to sd card in the app manager.

I also installed app2sd application but it says my phone doesnot have a real primary source of memory or my memory source is emulated.

How do i transfer ?? I have these 2gb and 4gb games which i want to transfer to memory card. :confused::confused::confused::confused:
[Galaxy Note II General] tarunsoni:
My note 2 used to stay cool while playing games for hours. But now if I play a game for just 2mins the upper portion of the phone gets heated up.(osmosis, gta, Sims etc.)

And my battery life has also reduced.

I haven't rooted my phone yet.

I am not facing any such problem. Mine is perfect. Battery too

i think it should DMB2
[Galaxy Note II General] KyleDevlin12:
The new update is DMB2.
[Galaxy Note II General] eyan2011:
The new ota update is a 35MB DMB2.. after updating it took me to the "Android is upgrading" screen usually this happens when Samsung could have a added a new feature or an app.. if its a fix then it would have booted up to my lock screen.. so something is definitely new.. wonder what it could be.

I too updated. But can't make out any difference. Even googling doesn't help, surprisingly.

[Galaxy Note II General] jujuburi:
And once again I'm hoping that it'll bring back the great battery backup like before, as 4.1.1.

Kindly post here if you see it is improved.

'Swyped' from my GT-N7100
[Galaxy Note II General] amitsayshii:
Can anybody confirm if updating the latest firmware (DMB2) unrooted their phone. I hate the data wipe and re-root step after every update. Samsung is not helping as well by releasing updates so frequently ;)
[Galaxy Note II General] shethsa:
Not sure but after dmb2 looks like initial battery drain has worsened. See the spot on the chart towards the right after the vertical line (that's when it updated and rebooted)
[Galaxy Note II General] amg009:
^^Seems like the device was awake for the larger part after you rebooted , so IMO that drain is normal..
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.ketan:
@shethsa

Do you think you can decide battery performance within few hrs only?

It's useless to make any comment before at least 2 cycle
[Galaxy Note II General] registermyid:
just noticed, when my note 2 started after DMB2 Update, screen mode changes automatically, like i have set "Natural". As soon as it start, i could see the colors are changing from dynamic (sharp colors) to natural one. Dunno it is a default feature in note 2, Checked the Phone icon in the locked screen. lol and i could see the colors saturation changing lol.
[Galaxy Note II General] jujuburi:
Exactly! But there is another way also imo, charge your device to 100%, use it till 90%, see the screen on time, on 4.1.1 it was ~ 70/75 mins, on LL7 it was ~ 60 mins, on MA6 it was less than 60 mins. MA6 was the worst of all.

How much battery is drained in standby doesn't matter, how much screen on time you're getting does.

'Swyped' from my GT-N7100
[Galaxy Note II General] jitin02:
(Old feature) i think thats old option.......from DLL7/4 there was option in settings/display -> "auto adjust screen tone". u may have ticked it from old times

correct me if i am wrong.
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.ketan:
I don't think this is good method

basically its lot depends on what you have used while screen on, screen on can be do with just surfing or by playing game, so dropping battery juice 10% not just depends on screen On, but also application running while screen was on.

batter use some application and calculate what exactly screen On has consume separately

LL7 it was worst, nearly 9% /hr

Ma6 dropped it to <4%/hr (which was same as 4.1.1)

Here screenshot of MB2 (i consider it as primary report, i have flashed it just few hrs back only)

screen has consumed 18% of total 23 % consumption, so screen have used net percentage is 4.14 %

and you can see screenshot, screen was On for 1h 5min so screen consumption is nearly 4.1%/hr, and i believe its fine.

Well needless to say same applications should be used to test a ROM. I always use half an hour browsing via stock browser and half an hour Tapatalk.

Anyway, flashing the new ROM by myself, let's see what it actually brings or takes away.

Hi guys

I didn't want to start a debate here.

I have ordered nexus 4 and it came today and I love aosp look. So I ran a benchmark test using antutu on both my note 2 and nexus 4. I am running the cm10.1 latest nightly on note 2 and have installed around 110 apps. I haven't rooted my nexus 4 and installed apps were 3 besides stock apps of Google.

Here are the screenshots of the both the scores. I want to understand why note 2 is outperforming the nexus in almost every aspect except graphics. I know cm 10 is still nightly and hwcomposer vsync were still broken due to Samsung closed sources. I heard all elite developers saying scores doesn't matter but I want to understand the reason. Both devices ate running latest jelly bean.
[Galaxy Note II General] kachrukamble:
Antutu responded differently on both devices

on Nexus 4, the CPU frequency speed Antutu measured is 1600x4

and on Note 2 it is 1512x4

set your CPU speed @1600Mhz on Note-2 and re run Antutu..
[Galaxy Note II General] jujuburi:
@Chaitanya:

Mate it's useless. I mean benchmarking and comparing two devices, besides the difference in result is very small. Also that ROM you're using IS the last thing where you wanna do a benchmark test.
[Galaxy Note II General] chaitanya87:
Kachru the one with less score is nexus. It's exactly opposite to what you said.
[Galaxy Note II General] kachrukamble:
ohk.. My bad saw it wrongly.

now take it reverse.

Afaik Note 2 is more optimized device than any others.

you know same Exynos 4412 Soc runs on S3 @1.4 and on Note 2 it is optimized to run@ 1.6

look at float point on both results you will find the difference..
