Hindi is not amongst the languages available in Settings under Languages & Input. So I guess the answer is no.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naishadh:

The Indian ROM has that? At least the UK one doesn't and there's no option to download it either.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
UK rom won't have

It's should be only in Indian ROM
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schiwa:
Right now its not there, but when you press the langage, a pop up says that languages can be downloaded from the server, so it means the server has it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Yes you may have to download it. Though in note1 it comes pre installed.

Hindi launguage support for Indian note 2

I have checked many note 2 and read many senior members post regarding hindi support in note 2 and no one clearly mention about this. Samsung keyboard language list also not showing hindi language. I just use locale and change to hindi but that is not same. I have all type of hindi supporting keyboard and usb bt external keyboard are also enable to type hindi but that is not same. So please clear about posted image of note 2 and if yes then samsung keyboard hindi language option also.

As I know samsung galaxy note is with hindi support so senior member please post any mode or part apk or IME or samsung keyboard apk from note (hindi enable) if that can use in note 2 rooted.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ubuntu_Man:
Hey there :)

I'm about to revive my old touch diamond 2 by changing the housing and searching for a good rom or android from sd...some time ago, about a year, I was trying to use android as my regular daily system on this phone and it was really good ....so I thought, that by all the time what is now over since the last time I used my topaz, the development is now really advanced and it got on NAND ..

So my question is, what is new since then? A year of development is really many time to do some good software .

What has changed, what is still the same?

I'm posting it here, because I've seen that on the topaz forum there is almost no activity and because topaz and rhodium have almost exactly the same hardware ( not to mention the exterior and the mini Jack 3.5) I've posted it here.

So it would be really really nice if someone could give me a little summary of what happened in development on this phones on android :) I would be really happy and also I think that this would be really helpful for other people like me who want to refresh their news and development stage knowledge of this phones..

Thanks in advice :)

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arrrghhh:
No NAND, last build I put out for SD on RHOD is the same for TOPA - GBX0C.

There weren't many devs with the TOPA - and none have been active on the TOPA for quite some time now. Sorry, this device is quite old.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ubuntu_Man:
Hmpf....I thought that this device is the same and hasn't it the same age as rhodium? Thought so every time..I mean this basically the same phone just without keyboard and mini jack ...and a bigger screen lol :D

But thanks, really nice that you have given me some infos ;)

Old? What none sense.

This device is capable of much more then this.

There are really old devices like say the wallaby that still get updates.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragontology:
In relation to the SupportMyMoto campaign in which Motorola made the controversial decision to abandon its 2011 flagship phones Atrix, Electrify, and Photon (among others), I'm wondering how long you, as Android users (regardless of what phone you have), feel a phone should be kept current with software updates.

Please keep in mind that if a lightbulb never burned out, you would never buy replacements, so to stay in business, the company would have to sell infinite lightbulbs at an extremely high price. Likewise, if you didn't have incentive to upgrade after 18-24 months, phones would have to be more expensive to compensate for people sticking with what they have for longer.

Should a phone be kept up to date with Android version updates for the longest contract after the phone is released, the longest contract after the phone goes EOL and is no longer sold, somewhere in between, or longer?

To explain the poll options, since I can't do it on the options themselves, the time is how long the device gets timely Android updates, and the nothing/% is how much extra you'd be willing to pay. Best option means it gets updates for 2 years, but after that all materials are released to the public (e.g. XDA) so volunteers could continue to develop new ROMs.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neighborhoodhacker:
I would say it depended on how many active users had the device
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragontology:
Obviously in the real world, if someone else pays double for the device and gets lifetime support, that work is going to leak and somebody who paid the regular price can reap the benefits. But that isn't the question.

Think of it more as, if you're Motorola (or whatever manufacturer). How should they do it? Should they provide extended service? For how long and how much should they charge? Or should they do it for free, and if so how charitable would you have them be?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WJThomas:
I'll give a little different take on this. When I go on contract with my provider I get a discounted price on the phone because it is subsidized by the 2 year contract. When my contract is over I go month to month at the same subsidized rate, so I am still paying for my phone the same as if I was under contract. I feel that as long as my provider is charging me the subsidy, they have an obligation to provide support and work with the manufacturer. When support is officially dropped, then the subsidy has to stop as well.

So, I say as long as the phone is in use with a subsidy it must be supported. And in the spirit of open source, when official support is stopped, all source and notes must be made available to the user community.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
I'd take it on a case by case basis. If a handset maker knows it's not going to update its devices, it should make that clear right away, and give the appropriate discount to the device. What is simply ludicrous is that you pay the full price for a super duper device and 12 months later it's just like the device never existed.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -CALIBAN666-:
samsung says minimum 18 month.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Optimusman:
forever

I think google-android needs to create a way that as long as your phone can support the new android version every phone should be able to at least download the software needed if the carrier stopped sending updates for the phone!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android88:
I think phones should be supported for 24 months because a lot of people are on contract and it would be nice to get a phone with Android 2.3 and at the end of the contract, get an upgrade to 4.2 Jelly Bean.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Markuzy:
It also has to do with Manufacturers not knowing what Google is coming up next.

Future software tech may not be compatible with current hardware tech. Some things are the lack of space, incompatibilities with manufacturer skins and mods.

Google should give a relevant framework and layout of future android development so that current devices can be future proofed. It will also reduce testing time for updates to each device and reduce disappointing withdrawal of support because of incompatibilities (like the xperia play for example).

i want to update my phone in 1-2 months:silly:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xilw3r:
phones (and every other thing that can be updated) should always be supported as long as possible, much like what apple does (i hate their policies, but props to them for the updates though)

i mean they update every idevice to the latest software version as long as the hardware is capable of running it well. i believe it should be like so with all the phones. but then again, some companies have so many models that they have no possible way of doing this due to lack of resources... ugh.. what a pickle, huh ?

so as a compromise id say support should last 2 years

How do you use NFC exactly????
[HTC One X] wolverine73:
NFC - near field communication is a means to receive or transmit data over a very short distance.

If you turn on your NFC and search your neighbourhood you will likely see posters,boards,bus stops with NFC tags on them - hold the back of your phone up to a tag (whilst phone is switched on and unlocked) and you will receive something from the tag.

Depending on the NFC tag you scanned you will get a variety of results - for example scanning an NFC tag at a bus stop usually opens up your web browser and takes you straight to the correct webpage detailing when the next buses are due at your stop.

If you know someone who also has an NFC enabled phone then you can hold both phones together (back to back) and share contacts,web sites and various other things nearly instantly.

You are also able to buy your own 'blank' NFC tags and configure them yourself with an assortment of apps from the play store - i personally use 'NFC Task Launcher'

I suggest hitting YouTube for a more indepth explanation but i hope this outline will help you :cool:
[HTC One X] kreindler:
My question is in particular what app do I need for "reading" the nfc tags?? I am located in Romania, and here except the biometric passport and some credit cards, I don't know about any nfc tags I could scan.....

But let's take the touching phones method- do I need an app for that or just touch the phones together and you'll get a pop up menu with what 2 share or what 2 do??
[HTC One X] wolverine73:
In your settings menu you should have an option to turn NFC on. Should be in the same menu as 'airplane mode' etc.

Once you have it turned on then no additional application is needed for reading tags.

You will need a separate application (like the one I mentioned above) to write your own NFC tags.

If you place two NFC enabled phones back just to back then the sender touches his screen and the receiver gets data from them. You can't choose what you receive but obviously the sender can choose what to send.

Though sometimes you can't send exactly what you want.

Your best option is to 'trial and error' NFC. Just sit down with a friend and spend an hour finding out what works exactly and to what extent.
[HTC One X] kreindler:
Tried to "read" one of my friends biometric passport. Didn't work directly as the passport tag was (how I found out a lil later) encrypted.

So you must download from the market nfc taginfo. Then go to menu an select passport scan. You'll be required to type the passport nr, date of birth and expiry date. Then place the passport tag under your phone, give it about 20 seconds, and there you have it, passport photo and all the information.

NOTE: you can use any other app for that, but for passport in particular it MUST have the option to introduce some passport info, because of the tag being encrypted. At least electronic (biometric) passports from Romania are encrypted.

I am quite curious how this can be used with credit cards "touch to pay"... Can u somehow create like a kind of wallet in your phone and store the credit cards and just touch your phone with the special POS for those cards and pay? Anybody tried or read smthing about it?

I think it could be done, but I think one could forsee the possible security issues that might appear (eg your phone gets lost).
[HTC One X] kreindler:
Thx for the info:) where do I find NFC tags and how much do they cost?? Any user for a usefull low cost daily application of the technology???
[General Questions and Answers] SwaySwayJoy:
Is the bluetooth audio streaming still funky on cm10 on Verizon Galaxy S3? Last I had the September 30 Nightly Build and the audio streaming didn't work. I tried the asus transformer file audio_policy.conf but it just kept my calls on speaker.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Chinespa:
Does the YG-P70 (US version) have a micro SD card inside it? I was thinking maybe upgrade the internal SD card capacity if it isn't too difficult. That will leave the external slot open if we really need more. I ordered a Samsung 32 gig microSD class 10 and it is the fastest card I have ever had (not easily found in most stores where I live). I bought it from amazon. I would have gottetn one on ebay but there are a lot of fake memory cards on ebay. You take a chance buying them on ebay unless you know the seller. If I could make that my internal card that would be very nice.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mevordel:
Yes, in a way. It is (simply put) built into the processor, so it is not removable. Your 32 gig will have to go in the external slot. However, there is a patch to make it look like your internal storage to android (swap the two), which you might want to check out.

I dude could you give me your kernel and cm10 rom I know you got it working
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
Just flash that swap storage mode..u can also use 64gb card if 32 is not enough
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ratzenberger:
Hello guys, I have a strange problem with my 9300 + or specifically with the memory card. When i plug in the usb mass storage as I only see some folders with "." in the beginning. The other default folders of Android as "Android, data, DCIM, documents, and other gameloft data folders" are hidden and can only be viewed from the file manager of the phone. I also eject the card from the phone and plugued in pc via adapter but not solved.What happens?

Important to know that you need to be on the stock att Rom to unlock your devise. Simply entering your code into the dial pad on a non stock Rom like cm9 will not do anything but return an invalid mmi error.

Meanwhile my note is now urooted and back to stock for about a week which is like chewing glass.

Guys, let me tell you this: Samsung announced the devices that are gonna be on JB and they dont gonna update this neither. They did this with our players and they are gonna do it again with this. Buy something else. A galaxy nexus Or a nexus 7 are betters options

If you dont believe me read this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...more-devices-soon-including-the-galaxy-music/

The galaxy music is a cellphone not this device

If the price is right, i will get it, but i doubt Samsung will release it for International market.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] mxjcmxjc:
I'm waiting to see what they finally release. I've been thinking about getting a Galaxy Nexus and just using that.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Psycho29388:
tbh, I was gonna wait to purchase it instead of my 4.0, but I thought about the price + the chance it probably wouldn't fit in my pocket.

It's probably gonna be around $300 on launch (although I'm not sure) and I only had $200 at the time of purchasing my 4.0.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] stylemate:
There was a company called Yepp in Korea and it's Samsung's.

It's a MP3P company and that's why our devices are like "YP"-G70 or else.

And Yepp company takes care of our device and firmware kind of stuff.

This means that Samsung is not really fond of MP3P as they are toward its phone, Galaxy S series.

I wouldn't recommend people to buy MP3P from Samsung. Cellphones I will recommend, but...... MP3P?

I'll have to ponder about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
Actually, YEPP is not a separate company. That's the name they've given to their PMP (Portable Media Player) line. YEPP is an acronym for something, but I forget what it means.

As for the Player 5.8, I speculate that it will be at least six months for it to release in international markets, because that's how long it took between the release of the original Galaxy Player in Korea and the West.

I am definitely going for the Galaxy Note 2. I am very reluctant to buy another Galaxy Player from Samsung again, as they charge full price for obsolete hardware and leave their customers in the dark with upgrades
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] nooktablet:
I'm probably getting an ipod touch then, even though I don't really like is and the small screen.

The thing is it's too expensive, I would've bought the $200 16 gb if Apple released it.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] nooktablet:
Lol I don't even know what gps is.

What is it? How is it different from location service? How is it useful?

Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
GPS stands for "Global Positioning Satellites" and these satellites are the key to identifying your location on the earth. Devices with GPS have an additional part within them that allows your device to communicate with the satellites, and as a result the GPS satellites are able to pinpoint your coordinates on earth. Without a GPS receiver your device cannot communicate with said satellites, so no GPS positioning is possible outside any facilities. And, I say that because without a GPS receiver, the only other way to track your location is via your Wi-Fi connection. So, the location services you mentioned…I just explained them for you.

P.S. - Most technologies that exist as commodities now were first invented by the U.S. military. GPS is one of those technologies, as well as the Internet.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] nooktablet:
So with gps you can use mapping/location app offline (no Internet access needed)? That would be great for turn by turn direction

Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
Yes. I remember back in the day, when I still had my HP iPAQ, I was using TOMTOM maps for navigation. At that time, no handheld devices came equipped with internal GPS receivers, so I had to buy a Bluetooth GPS receiver to use with TOMTOM.

Nowadays, most devices (but, I guess not iPod Touches) come with internal GPS receivers, allowing for offline navigation if you have the available maps cached on your device.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] baladev:
There are basically three ways to identify you location on the face of the planet - when you are connected to a wi-fi hot spot, its position can be identified (not yours, so it's appriximate), if your device has a gsm radio, so it can connect to a cellular network, then it can identify your location by your proximity to the nearest towers on this network, it's called agps and many devices nowadays use this to identify your approximate position on the globe, because it's quick, and once they know your approximate position, they use gps to get your precise location. Well, and the last one is gps, which was already explained, a gps chip inside your device talks to satellites in the space to calculate precisely where you are. The advantages of this method is that you don't need to be connected to the internet via wi-fi or 3g, it uses less energy, so lasts longer and gives you more freedom. You need to have some kind of mapping software to be installed on your device for this method to work (like abovementioned excellent TomTom or Garmin or iGo, there's a whole bunch of them), but once you have one of these, you have a full featured car/personal navigation kit, with voice guided turn by turn navigation anywhere in the world where you have map coverage.

BTW, SGP 5.0 makes and excellent gps!
