Im using the dmb1 modem. Stabile connection. Starhub
[Galaxy Note II General] ktgohdt125:
nice to know a stable connetion..

can u quote the exact baseband/modem no#

how long will it run fr 100% to 0 with all the time data on??

thanks
[Galaxy Note II General] Warm_ice:
I have this weird thing happened to my colleague n7105. Her hp got 4g signal (starhub) in jurong east central (just off jcube). First speedtest had 28mbps dl / 14mbps ul, second test 37mbps dl / ???? ul (Forgot lol). But after a software update signal dropped to h+ liao and never went 4g.

I managed to take ss of the software version when it still can connect lte. Modem/baseband version never change. Only kernel and build number got updated.

Anyone from j east who have 4g signal on their note2?

I already updated to the latest software. Signal dropped to h+ after the update. Could it be the APN settings of starhub?
[Galaxy Note II General] Sean_FD2R:
But your SS showing MA8 FW...not the latest.

SS taken before the update. You can see that it has 4g signal.

Why like that ar. In jurong east I always need to yank network mode by switching lte to gsm then gsm to lte just to get 4g signal. Once signal drop to 3g/h+ it never catch 4g liao unless you off-on lte mode. Is this a network or ROM issue?I have a rooted stock ROM.

Fug starfug for not having a nationwide 4G coverage. I found a solution to my problem:

*#197328640#

UMTS->Debug Screen->Phone Control->Network Control->Band Selection would be what one would want to lock only into certain bands.

I selected LTE ALL

4G signal and speed all the way!!!!!

No need root.
[Galaxy Note II General] kEvinErd:
Wow thanks for sharing! Just wondering where you got this from? Looks good so far! 4G speed is awesome now! Would there be any repercussions though? Also, what was the initial band Selection on..? Don't recall seeing there was any particular band selected before I clicked on LTE ALL as per your tip!
[Galaxy Note II General] Warm_ice:
Saw it somewhere here in xda. The first time i tried mg mobile was gone but just a simple reboot brought it back. I didnt check the status before i hit ALL. I just anyhow change. Lol
[Galaxy Note II General] lchsu:
Just a caution: It disables 2/3G I think as when I went to JB today, I couldn't get any signal at all - had to revert (selected the "automatic" option after "band selection"). Think what it does is it overides whatever option you select in your system settings and only receives 4G signals.
[Galaxy Note II General] kEvinErd:
Ya I realized that too when I couldn't turn off 4G. It forces a 4G connection.
[Galaxy Note II General] MinoochX:
Sian sia... The LTE network force me into 1800MHz. Is there any way to go to the 2600MHz channel?
[Galaxy Note II General] Warm_ice:
Just select 'automatic' from the band selection if you want to revert. Everything is good on my side except that voice call is not working.
[Galaxy Note II General] blitzkriegh:
is it still worth it to get the Note 2 over S4?
[Galaxy Note II General] kEvinErd:
Why not? They are two different categories of phone. One is more s-pen centric and a phablet while the other is more mainstream.
[Galaxy Note II General] blitzkriegh:
I just skipped S4 and got the Note2 instead.
[Galaxy Note II General] Jasonchewy91:
Don't worry, new features from s4 will come to note 2 as well. I've never been so satisfied with a phone.

Anybody knows where to try out the s4?
[Galaxy Note II General] joshua:

Yup.. With the exception of all the Air gestures... But those are really gimmicky in my opinion. I'm not a Samsung hater just to be clear.

Wondering when will Android 4.2 land on Note 2.. Haha
[Galaxy Note II General] st8800:
Why SG thread so dead??????
[Galaxy Note II General] vash_h:
I would switch off the air gesture anyway to save power
[Galaxy Note II General] ysrini:
As from the news around, now our Note 2 will skip 4.2.2 update to move directly to 4.3.

Which in turn means -> more waiting time for any kind of software update. Huh..!!!
[Galaxy Note II General] devilcatz:
Interesting. At least it will be stable for now? I'm happy with what u have. No bugs that I am facing
[Galaxy Note II General] zard:
That's the reason why I like custom ROMs, once 4.3 hits, the likely chance it becomes available for our device is much higher than coming from Samsung.
[Galaxy Note II General] vash_h:
I have a friend that just bought an s4 lte and boasting to us how fast the Internet was. but thephone shows she is on H (not even H+).

All of us was making fun of her because she is in digi which doesn't have lte.. At least not yet and not announced if they will ever roll out lte.

To make things worst further probing found that she was actually connected to wifi when she tried speedtest.... which her wifi was on Fibre Internet. Hahahhahahahhahaaaa
[Galaxy Note II General] zard:
Real joke she was!

How does this save screen space when note 2 do not use soft keys like on nexus phones?

Also, if you wna save even more screen space, the best option is gmd gesture control. Gestures from anywhere anytime executing any function. Brilliant must have app!

What happens is that when a SMS comes in the phone it vibrates and the screen wakes for a moment before going off but no notification sound. I have tried adjusting the settings from both phone settings and SMS app settings and everything seem to be in order but just no sound when SMS comes in. Also, no SMS notification icon on the top of the screen where usually one can see other notifications like email, whatsapp etc..

I recently installed "profile scheduler" app and am wondering if that may have messed up things but many are using it without any issues..

Is the settings under SMS the same as mine?

There's no diff btw N2 n N2 LTE except for the LTE network. If u dun reali care abt warranty, go for N2. Actually its up to u de lor... $200 for 1 yr warranty for the N2 LTE.

Seriously prices for Samsung phones depreciate quite slow especially for N2/N2 LTE so if u r comfortable with the price go for it then..

Sign Apple then sell n buy N2?

IMHO, i will go for LTE de on the safe side. My job nature requires me to b in rain sometimes n work from height. With warranty, i talked my way out to change or service my phones all the while... lol

Back to basic, factory reset...redo the whole thing again. then nandroid restore. now everything "soon soon"...

Do take note, not too sure if installation of Busybox gonna cause your phone to go haywire. But to me yes..it did. 3 hrs of down time. LOL
