The price was revised, infibeam.com does that randomly and I ordered the white from them, it came in original packaging and the flip cover has the nfc chip.

So it is authentic indeed.

If required I can post the pictures.

Anyone having any kind of issues with play store downloads.. Do check your APN settings. One of my friends was having the same issues on vodafone 3G on his S3..While my Note 2 was working fine. I changed his APN settings to what I was using..and it started working!

That wud also explain the issue not getting resolved even after clear data of the app or even factory reset. Just a guess.

Guys how to complaint against Samsung?

I submitted my device 3 days back to Service Center (Calcutta) and today I was to take it and they scratched the screen so badly. At least 6 or 7 prominent scratches, permanent. I don't know how they did it! They should've been awarded for this. Anyway, jokes apart, this is utter nonsense.

And this guys are so stupid, they informed me that Note 2 should take at least 5 hours to charge, because it has double battery than S2. They don't even know that the charging output is now a 2A. Jeez!

So, anyone? I want to thrash them bad. Fu(kers.

You can opt for this in Settings/More settings/Wireless and networks/Mobile networks/Network mode and selecting 'GSM/WCDMA(Auto mode)' there.If you want 2G only select 'GSM only' there.[/QUOTE]

Thanks for the reply.

What I wanted to say is that even when I have set the mode to Auto, it is not switching automatically from 3g to 2g when 3g network is not available. I think that this switch must be automatic as the name suggests.

So recently my GPS started acting up. I could lock on fast and accurate a few days back, but now it takes long to lock on and is always some meters off. The Weird part is that I'm always able to get a lock near my home, but near my college it never locks on.

Could GPS quality be different for different places? My college is right in South Delhi.

Also I'm on doc's prerooted ROM, DMC3.
[Galaxy Note II General] SacGuru:
Allright, so I don't know about you guys, but I am really excited about the next big thing to come - Note 3. It's less then a month away! My only problem with note 3 was gonna be the increase in size, and as it is almost confirmed that the size would be almost the same, I am really happy :D

At the same time, it would be impossible for me to get rid of my Note 2. It is the most amazing phone ever made till now, in my opinion. Parting with it would be like parting with a good friend :(

I suppose I won't sell it unless cash needs force me to. After all, technology like Note 2 won't be obsolete for atleast another year :p Probably will buy the Note 3 on emi or something. Would be really great if you guys could tell me how excited you are about Note 3, and what you are gonna do with your note 2 once you upgrade :D

I have sworn not to purchase another cheap plastic feeling phone. So for now when I upgrade, Samsung will be out of the question.

I might go for HTC or Sony, depends. Or if Samsung gives us metal, let's see.

And im not a huge fan of TW, so there......

Don't get me wrong, I love this phone's battery life and size, but I feel I was better of with my HTC.....
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.ketan:
Surely will go with note3 but regarding selling of note2 still undecided. May keep for other family members as still I love my note2.
[Galaxy Note II General] virani_joush:
I will be sticking with note 2 till next March or April and then will switch to some good phone at that time. Most probably HTC or Sony. Bcz I agree with kkapoorr.

And one more point is exynos doesn't have good developer support as snapdragon has. And may be next nexus. Lets see.. :)

Dr.Ketan, I have already tried changing the SIM but the issue persists. I am using Vodafone SIM. The mentioned problem occurs when the 3G network coverage is less.I have to manually switch to 2G. My question is that is there any problem with the firmware. I am on unrooted stock 4.1.2.
[Galaxy Note II General] pnsdhrn:
If you don't like plastic I suggest to wait till Jan2014 when Samsung releases S5 which will will be more technoadvanced than Note3,more or less smaller and more over having an Aluminium Body!
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.ketan:
I don't think it will be sw issue, many time I have notice this with sim, and solved by changing it. Though try selecting operator manually. In mobile network select operator and let it search then select Vodafone.

[Galaxy Note II General] eyan2011:
I think it could be more than that because Samsung usually puts a price tag of 41k for 16 GB model variants which Samsung gave a boot thanks to that 16GB Galaxy S4 fiasco and they did mention a 32 or 64 GB which in my opinion could make be a bit more expensive say close to 45 to 50k .

If note2 getting 4.3 in a month after note3, who will pay double price. I don't think features and configuration justify this price.

A cloth type material as a phone casing can easily get cut. Samsung needs to rethink it.
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.ketan:
Remember that samsung has to sell @ nearly 45K within a week of launch, though watever they say OR print on Box. And if INR improves to $ meantime it may be 42K.

Note series have never gain premium market compare to S series, though we know Note series are better. but i think size which we like in note series is also a factore for 'Not to like' for others.

I exactly remember when Note1 launched, printed price was nearly 40K but i got it for 31-32K on next day it released. same happened with Note2 too.

Overprice is just for Crazy people who wants it on same day. otherwise within week it comes to dowm.

[Galaxy Note II General] dcpathak:
Hi dr. ketan,

I need your help. I used framaroot to root my note 2 and it made my status modified in system setting. Used CosmeticSysScopeNormalizer in xposed and made this status look 'normal'. When I'm entering into the download mode, it is showing status as 'modified' and 'no' for Custom Binary. How should I remove this modified status? Triangle away is asking to enter in a special boot and am afraid of it. Also do I need to backup the efs? I just kept a copy of the efs folder on the sd card.
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.ketan:
What is your binary custom download value in download mode?
[Galaxy Note II General] dcpathak:
Device Status (Under settings): Normal

Download Mode data: Custom Binary Download: Yes (1 counts)

Current Binary: Samsung Official

System Status: Official

I'm using everything Stock except root access.

Interestingly, it was 'no' in Custom Binary Download before I decided to use the triangle away.

Also, do we need to install busybox or supersu is enough? And which one is preferable: superuser or supersu?

I've not done a factory data wipe after using trianlge away.
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.ketan:
If you have flash counter 1 then you must have to use triangle away to reset it.
