20K exchange. But I exchanged my immaculately maintained Note 2 on Day 1, in fact my Note 3 was probably one of the 1st handsets sold in the city and the Samsung Sales Manager was photographed handing over the phone to me.

So you may get around the same for your Note 2 and the N3 price has dropped a bit. The 1st thing that strikes you about the N3 is the beautiful HD display and then the faux leather back followed by the metal bezel. Nice change, but then the feeling of having a set with too much plastic doesn't really go away.
[Galaxy Note II General] Paul013:
Yes. I've flashed it today. I can't stop testing the new features that have come in with the update. Samsung Knox is a thing that's completely new. Adapt display works good. The whole new lockscreen is a welcome change. The ROM is pretty much stable. Everything is working just as it's supposed to be. Android 4.3 is much smoother and the added Samsung features are an icing on the cake. This early built shows how good the stable one will be. Two thumbs up for Samsung!!!
[Galaxy Note II General] emze:
OK, I am talking from user experience. S2 folks had issues initially, a good friend of mine with a newer note 1 had screen issues, s3, I've seen two S3's at a service center weeks post launch with MB and display issues, a person known to my cousin at a service center said S3 is having hell-of-a-lot MB issues. Note 2 also same story, but better than s3. S4.. Heating, display, MB issues.

Is there any permanent solution to this azira patch thing? I mean I cant flash the leaked build as it will hamper with my network and efs. Please if anyone can help me in this I will be very thankful.

What is the main issue with this DMG1 update? I am currently on Carbon and wanted to go to a TW based ROM, most probably Wanam 3.9 based on DMG1. I have a Nandroid of the DMC3 and will probably restore to it before flashing. So do I flash Wanam after restoring back to my Nandroid or do I first flash the DMG1 from doc's prerooted rom thread and then goto Wanam? I don't want to mess up my efs therefore I ask.

Greetings everyone,

I post as an iPhone owner. Very recently i am attracted towards the GN2, and am contemplating about buying the same.

I wanted to buy a used GN2. What rates can i expect?

i have asked a few vendors, who qoute around 22-24k for 8-11 months old phones. is it fair enough?

i have no knowledge about how phone depreciation works.

Folks, bought my SGN2 from New Delhi and I seem to have the Black Ink mark/line on the screen. Its only visible in the dark under the certain colors, eg. Grey when you use the stock Android SMS app.

Should I get the phone checked at the service centre or is this normal as I've read that this is a Samsung AOMLED manufacturing process. There were a lot of Note & Galaxy 2 phone with it. Even the Note 2 seems to be plagued.

After using AOSP, TW seems a bit heavy, I was on probam 4.4.7 (based on AOSP/AOKP/PA/PAC) and then I flashed Wanam V4 (it feels heavy) but no lag as you are experiencing. You need to check what's giving you the lag.

[Galaxy Note II General] emze:
i like AOSP roms for the lag free user experience they give. but on the downside, the battery tends to dry up a little sooner(as time goes by), the camera isn't exactly on par with stock(but good enough to use) and in the Note, the S-Pen becomes just-another-stylus. not much functionality and although there are plenty of choices regarding the note taking apps, nothing completely replaces the ease of use of the stock one. this is my honest opinion and it is the only reason i am still sticking with stock.

so, after 4 days post release/leak, what is the indian review of the 4.3 build?

[Galaxy Note II General] kachrukamble:
Not worthy at all to expend your valuable time with this Rom!

it may give you little snappy experience in the beginning but will end you with just placebo effect.

I tried it for a day and back on my favorite one. it just early leak with nothing cooked like for 4.3...
[Galaxy Note II General] emze:
ah! thank you for the info bro. i am currently facing a few issues with my phone. its slowing down, battery isn't particularly long lasting, phone heats up, at times, it refuses to auto-turn off the screen. i was anyway planning on a full format and i came across the leak. but since you say its not that great, i guess i will just format and stay put with the good ol' 4.1.2 rom.
[Galaxy Note II General] Manjunath324:
Leaked build is definitely better than 4.1 in all aspects and only thing is that you have to root after flashing to remove knox and unwanted bloatware.battery life is also good.

This leak is based on 3.0 kernel and final release will be on 3.4 kernel.

I expect even better battery life on official release.
[Galaxy Note II General] pakure:
The leaked rom is better.. than any Rom..before..

Better battery.. yes

Faster and smoother due to trim feature in 4.3

Fully working xposed framework and wanam xposed mod

The new improved multi window.. you can adjust the size of window now and also do multitasking in the multi window

Ports from the note 3 --launcher with magazine ; sketch book; my files; gallery; accuweather widget ; s note; are all working well (get the mods by slink 59 in the theme and apps section... he has fixed most of the minor bugs):D:thumbup:

KitKat for Note.

There is a news that Samsung is releasing KitKat for Note2.Developments in this regard have started.So If we have already installed 4.3 Leak better be conteded with it till KitKat release as there remains doubt that whether Samsung will still continue with the works of 4.3 for Note which will be futile.The link for the news is furnished below.

Samsung is on the same path as HTC was. HTC could have become the undisputed king of android but they started locking the bootloader while samsung followed a different policy. Now sammy wants to screw itself so it is trying to control Android. Better for sammy to understand soon that the beauty of android lies in openness!

Any way sammy has reached the plateau of the curve of innovation already.

Hi, my phone is currently under last month of its warranty. II am already facing a Wifi connectivity issue, headphone jack not working, and I have a insane chip which is prone to SDS. I was thinking, if i flash stock ROM and reset the counter and then manually brick the device, will the service centre replace the motherboard with a new one ? After warranty, I want to use my phone with a peace of mind. Please advice.
[Galaxy Note II General] adillashkari:
and one more thing is why is the device awake even if the screen is off?
[Galaxy Note II General] paarkhi:
Do you really want to take chances? 5% assume if they don't replace then?
[Galaxy Note II General] krishelnino:
If they don't replace, i guess the motherboard would cost around 8k. In the past I had a similar experience with Galaxy S2. While I was flashing through Odin, I got a blue screen error on my PC and it restarted. Then I had a bricked device and took it to Service center and replaced with a new Motherboard, but it took them 15 days to do so.
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.ketan:
500 is too less, try other cable.
[Galaxy Note II General] paarkhi:
I think they'll be able to detect, they'll first try to revive it using JTAG, and it mainly depends on the service center and their representatives how intelligent they are? if they are able to detect the false play then no, else there are fair chances that they'll replace it. Never had an such experience so cannot tell you more but others with such experience can share their views on it.
[Galaxy Note II General] krishelnino:
Yes, maybe someone with such experience could share their views. Dr. Ketan, can you please suggest me on this ?
[Galaxy Note II General] pnsdhrn:
Even if you regain warranty by flashing stock rom and resetting counter and getting the mother board changed,most probably the new one you got will also be the insane one! My Note 2 is also on the threshold of warranty.I got it's mother board changed by the official Samsung Service Centre 2 months before.The changed one also is insane!!
[Galaxy Note II General] krishelnino:
Thanks a lot for the info. Btw, you had a problem ? How did u get the MB replaced ?
[Galaxy Note II General] pnsdhrn:
My phone succumbed to SDS.So they couldn't detect it was rooted.Hence they had to replace the MB as the warranty period was not over.
