Note 3 better comes with a 1080 screen....otherwise...I'm jumping ships
[Galaxy Note II General] ipguy:
Seems like it, when I posted I had no idea this word get the reaction it did... being a note 2 owner myself I was surprised how much the Samsung brand means to some.

To everyone whom I offended, you have my sincerest apologies :)
[Galaxy Note II General] sumeshd:
You can apologise by changing the thread title to something like sgn2 vs htc j butterfly..
[Galaxy Note II General] finalhit:
i don't think he needs to apologize for anything. he didn't say anything offensive.

although i disagree with the thesis of the thread. this is just a phone with a large (and nicer) screen. Note 2 killer, it is not.
[Galaxy Note II General] ipguy:
title updated...
[Galaxy Note II General] achusaysblessyou:
I agree, I LOVE my high res screens, but I'm torn between that and the entire package that is the Note 2, and I'm going with the Note 2, but I won't hate on HTC, as they're going to force manufacturers to up the resolutions of their screens. Innovation is always good, even if the product isn't, it means for other manufacturers that they better step up or get left behind. The OG Note did this as well as the Iphone and also the Ipad and retina displays. Although I may not agree with apple and their products, they make all my other toys possible by lighting a fire under those that can innovate but choose not to (Unfortunately some, cough*nokia*cough, waited until their entire world was on fire)

'HTC Butterfly J/ OneX 5' is stunning!!:good:

Here in Taiwan, a mate of mine from HTC just showed me the Butterfly model from the Japan launch (red model).

The new SLCD3 screen is simply amazing on HD photos, video and web text... it blows anything currently available out of the water!

The form factor of the phone is also really beautiful and super, super thin!

Sooooo my next phone! Want want want!!!:laugh:
[Galaxy Note II General] ipguy:
As its not exynos based it will shortly get CM support

Read the spec's its a world phone
[Galaxy Note II General] Livebyte:
Did HTC read my rant and decided to persuade me to come to their side?

Well done. I'm coming over to your side.

Bye Samsung, Bye Note.

HTC just got back in the game, people.

It's about time!
[Galaxy Note II General] Jamal Ahmed:
What will you say if samsung released source codes for exynos? :)

Because htc is even more known for close-sourced than samsung... IMHO then the feature of Note II will overweigh.

Keeping thay aside, it came in news about a month ago that Sharp was making mass production of 1080 5 inch screen, and now we got HTC J.

This is the start, lets just see how many 1080p devices are coming :good:
[Galaxy Note II General] Ariozo:
Will ofc. get one, but it still is HTC and they have not been good for a while.

They did try on Hox and it is a really nice device, but it had way to many problems.

And even if i like the spec. on the device i guess my Note will be the one I keep as my daily device. The Pen on Note when you get use to it is to damn nice to lose.

But who knows...it maybe end up htc make a superior device for a change.

Will be fun see how it turns out.

Then I'll bow down to Samsung, I promise. :)

EDIT: Knowing Samsung, they will stick with their Super AMOLED technology. I think 1080P AMOLED's are possible but probably Pentile Round 2!
[Galaxy Note II General] achusaysblessyou:
Actually they're using the Toshiba 5" 1080p panels (as is Oppo in their Find 5) which Toshiba announced about 7-8 months ago (If i remember correctly).
[Galaxy Note II General] Livebyte:
HTC confirmed to Engadget that they're using Sharp panels. IGZO maybe?
[Galaxy Note II General] Jamal Ahmed:
Maybe we'll get superamoled+ with 1080p? :p wishful thinking but...maybe? :)

If all these issues with super AMOLED vanish (about its durability), there isnt any screen better than this IMO [/end of off topic]
[Galaxy Note II General] qazibasit:
I am planning to get a note 2 after the success of my note 1, but this j butterfly prooved to be a distractor. Now i am waiting to see ur responses on the note 2 first. I bought my note 1 blindly coz this eas the best device of that time. I hope note 2 will proove the same.
[Galaxy Note II General] achusaysblessyou:
Huh really... that's interesting. If IGZO, then that would improve batt life a bit. I'm still weary of that 2020mAH battery though.

The J Butterfly is simply the LG Optimus G with a 5" 1080p display and a 2020 mAH battery.

The Galaxy Note II is that plus the additional S pen, S apps, and Samsung apps which differentiate it from just "another" android device.

I don't know about you, but I'm getting the Note II because of all these features and the package as a whole. The J Butterfly (I facepalm every time I type that... such a FAIL of a name) is just the next step in Android's evolution whereas the Note II has differentiated enough that it is its own species.

[Galaxy Note II General] YoungAceAtlanta:
The original HTC One X don't even have S-Off yet thanks to HTC. The One X Rom scene is weak compared to its older devices and its suppose to be HTC flagship phone.

I would love CM on my Note 2, but I'm not going to jump ship yet. Maybe after the next Nexus
[Galaxy Note II General] DMax99:
Well...they better if they want to stay competitive
[Galaxy Note II General] Livebyte:
SAMOLED is the future. But as of now, with the many issues, best to avoid.
[Galaxy Note II General] imitenotbecrazy:
This is really the biggest reason for me to get rid of my HOX. No S-OFF is a huge downside to being the flashoholic that I am. And having to repack kernels and flash them separately is damn annoying. I can't flash a rom and head to work for fear of it not working right and me not being able to just flash back to something else. I'll be back to the Note scene as soon as ATT lets me

why to go HTC

[Galaxy Note II General] kwanying:
Why even compare there is no digitizer pen ... end of story. Its just gonna be another phone with 5" screen nothing more...

The main reason i bought Note 1 and 2 is cux its digitizer pen, the big screen is just a the plus.
[Galaxy Note II General] ipguy:
Horses for courses my friend
[Galaxy Note II General] Livebyte:
Good for you.

I bought the Original Note at that time because it was the largest and greatest phone at that time.

I mean only after J Butterfly came out, Note became 2nd to the biggest resolution available.

What can I say?

I'm a pixel junkie.
[Galaxy Note II General] Ariozo:
As you not seem to like Note or even the cpu they use I dont understand why you still jumping around here. Get the phone you like and be happy..:)

I like the Note myself and dont think few more pixels or higher/better cpu will change my mind for my main device.

Got most phones worth to have and will get all the new ones to but in the end the Note with Spen just work to damn good for my use.

No personal remarks boy...

:rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note II General] riz157:
Personal preference I reckon but I think note 2 will be a better seller then butterfly. Note 2 is a more distinct, innovative product and samsung are better at marketing and advertising their products.

Butterfly definitely better screen LCD and ui.

Better design and material no competition.

Probably better camera.

So if that ticks all the boxs for you then wait for butterfly otherwise Note 2 is a cracker you can't beat it.

Huawei is going to make a quad core 6.1 inch 1080 resolution phone ...wow...
[Galaxy Note II General] Livebyte:
Yes absolutely true!
[Galaxy Note II General] zas311:
Samsung leads the pack. They will come up with a superier phone--S4 in a few months. JButterfly will be short lived. There were huge improvements for the Galaxy S3 over the S2. You can expect the same for the S4. They are planning to announce it in Feb. 2013. It will have a 5 inch unbreakable SuperAmoled screen in a very narrow bezel frame. Of course it will be 1080p. Exynos 5450 and all the best innovative features from Samsung. You can mark this post. JButterfly should be compared with S3 not Note2. The Note series is a different species with the unique SPen.

Unless you're trying to be a troll, you're talking out of your ass and none of those specs will be true.
[Galaxy Note II General] Robster83:
There is a rumour that the J Butterfly (stupid name, by the way) may end up as the basis for a new HTC Nexus phone. This hardware as a Nexus device would be hard to turn down, but that is the only combo that would tempt me to switch.
[Galaxy Note II General] warfareonly:
Nope, not stupid if you consider the Japanese culture, where 'cute' or kawaii is like the 'cool' of USA.Also, the Japs are ,generally, more smarter and informed customers than the rest of the world, so they would look at specs and not just decide.....not speaking for everyone here as I'll buy that thing as soon as it comes out in India.Definitely agree that a Nexus with this will be very hard to turn down...hopefully with more battery...but what the hell, I already plug my charger in my Note I everyday......
[Galaxy Note II General] BlueCider:
On the fence HTC J Butterfly vs. Note II

I'm really on the fence about which phone to get...

Each has some pros and cons and there just isn't an end all of end best phone in Japan right now:

Here are my pros/cons for these devices:

Japan Note II:

Pros:

Root just recently confirmed!

Split-Screen Multitasking (not every application but at least 10+ with more support coming)

5.5 screen real estate

Adequate battery life

Popout 1seg(TV) window so you can do other things while watching TV

Cons:

NO NFC! (on Japan model, WTF..)

No IRDA port (most Japanese phones/devices have this for data exchange, so it would have been nice if the phone had it..)

May not have LED Notification Lamp or programmable. Trying to confirm for Japan model

HTC J Butterfly:

Pros:

Screen quality is amazing

Has NFC

Has IRDA

Is waterproof

Japan model has expandable memory card slot

Cons:

Battery somewhat weak

Doesn't do SVDO (simultaneous voice/data)

No root will likely come soon for the Japan model.

No Split-screen Multitasking and no pop out for TV (The screen certainly is big enough..)

------------------

I suppose I may just go for the Note II. I mean, I don't use the IRDA often, and while NFC looks cool and I'd love to have that feature, I don't see using it very often either. The only thing that irks me is absolutely no phone/phone data exchange (unless maybe Bluetooth). Why does that matter at all? Well in Japan, like I said, most phones have the IRDA function, and when going to a club or party and you want to exchange selected contact details to exchange quickly without fumbling around with your phone, then it's really convenient. To me this is a big FAIL on the part of Samsung/Docomo.

Why I may not go with HTC is in part that it doesn't look likely a root will come around any time soon, plus, I'm really keen on the split screen multitasking. I'm just in love with the idea of browsing the web in one window and responding to an SMS or Email in another window. Or, copying and pasting Japanese words from the dictionary to my email I'm writing in Japanese. Or, Watching a video (youtube, my own or TV) in a pop up window, while doing other functions (if need by) in another window at the same time.

For the life of me I can't see why HTC wouldn't have a similar functionality in a phone as big as the HTC J Butterfly.

Both are great phones, but each has something the other has not, and it's driving me insane! :)
[Galaxy Note II General] EP2008:
Wow. Those cons are MAJOR. All of them.
[Galaxy Note II General] hagba:
I have seen the DNA with a friend and compared it to my Note II, DNA had the better camera and the screen brightness which is enough reason for me to trade my Note with it despite losing some screen real state that I value a lot. However after using the Web browser I will definitely get the DNA once the international version is released since I do lots of browsing on my device.
[Galaxy Note II General] jiffy1080:
I was able to hold the DNA as well and the screen is noticibly smaller. It honestly barely feels different than an S3. Im happy with my decision of the Note 2.
[Galaxy Note II General] imitenotbecrazy:
I was coming from an int one x and I'll never go back to HTC. Their new model of locking down the boot loaders and not allowing for a convenient method of SOff is enough for me to push them out of my life forever. I did play with a Dna not too long ago and while it was nice, the cons I see in HTC have me running from that phone. I love my note 2 and there's not a thing I can think of to change
[Galaxy Note II General] BlueCider:
I'm leaning towards the Note II as well. Though, I'm an LED Notification Lamp color freak, and I appreciate having the options to control my notification lamp, its colors and blinking patterns based on the type of notification.

I honestly found no options on the Note II in the settings and application settings to control lamp color and pulse patterns.

If there is a way in the Note II to do this stuff without getting some 3rd party app, please point me to it.

On the HTC with 4+ Sense, I didn't find several options for controlling lamp color, and the settings overall on the HTC Device seemed a bit better laid out.

I actually do like the size and feel and especially the screen quality of the HTC J Butterfly (DNA), but again, the cons above, at least for me, point me away from that phone.

So if anyone can help out with showing me how to control lamp color and pulse pattern for the Note II (i.e. assign contacts group a certain lamp notification color and patter, or specify certain colors for things like SMS, Emails etc). Would be appreciated.

Again, in the Note II I couldn't find control for this. Simply just to turn on and off lamp notifications for several 'system type' events in the settings. There's gotta be more than that.
[Galaxy Note II General] imitenotbecrazy:
Unfortunately I have not found one. This is the first phone that I'm messing around with the led for and was disappointed by the stock options. I'm trying third party ones but I'm not sure which are rec commended. My one x had no stock option of changing the light settings at all

Search for lightflow in the playstore. Its excellent.
[Galaxy Note II General] dk206:
I tell this to everyone, the battery life itself is more than an upgrade on its own.

Handwritten from my Galaxy Note II
[Galaxy Note II General] zkyevolved:
There is no doubt that the FEEL of an HTC device is more solid especially if it's a unibody design. But I do like the update scheduling of Samsung more, and I also like the S-Pen and the larger screen. The battery life is FANTASTIC on this device. There hasn't been a single day that I've killed my device 100% with my use, while I'm sure with just 2000mah I could kill the HTC butterfly especially with all those pixels! hehe.

Regardless, they both are GOOD devices. I'd rather stick with my Samsung though.
[Galaxy Note II General] BlueCider:
Yeah, the LIGHT FLOW application seems pretty good for what I'm looking for, however I didn't notice or find if I could program it to blink a certain color for a 'particular' contact or contact 'group'. That would be nice, so when I get a call or message from someone in my 'FAMILY' group, the LED will blink in my desired color. AND ESPECIALLY, when I do not want to see any notification light for particular contacts or contacts that are members of a particular group, to be able to not display a light for those.

Any ideas or confirmation on this?

Plus it looks like a few apps, including this one have issues with Samsung's 'Talkback' feature and it seems Samsung is putzing around on this. Have they released something in beta yet do you know?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II General] BarryH_GEG:
The J-Butterfly/Butterfly is nothing more than a One XL with a quad-core SoC (the footprint is the same as dual-core), 5" higher PPI display, slightly bigger battery (11%), and a removable SD card (32GB max). It doesn't have quad-band HSPA support (yet) so it's a niche phone aimed at Asian markets. VZW in the U.S. sells more phone than some countries so they picked it up. The 4.7” M7 that's supposed to be announced at CES or MWC will be the next "flagship" for the global market. With the Butterfly(s) having such limited availability and the DNA having a marginal battery and only 11GB of fixed user accessible storage I wouldn't expect these phones to be hugely successful. The One X wasn't and it did have broad distribution and HTC had to release a "plan B" with the One X+ just to try and stay in the game. Someday HTC will learn to not only make "pretty" phones but phones with competitive storage and battery options.
[Galaxy Note II General] Simone:
I came from the HTC Sensation XE, was suppose to buy the HTC One X but the unremovable battery and unexpandable memory has a toll.

The HTC J Butterfly is a great phone for competition to the Note 2 but just for competiton. The Note 2 will remain to be the best smartphone of 2012. Proud owner :angel:
[Galaxy Note II General] BlueCider:
The HTC J Butterfly derivative is for the Japanese market and it's selling like hotcakes now in Japan. I think one of the elements of why this is, is the add campaign is primarily focused by using school girl AKB celebs who probably have no clue what half the technology means. Yet the followers of these school girl groups (namely Japanese Geek Guys), probably know tons more and even if there's something about this phone that isn't too good, I'm sure the school girls will win most men over to get the phone just because their favorite Idol likes it and says that it's a cute phone. :p

As much as I like Rihanna, I don't think even she can compete with the power of AKB 48 School Girls! hahaha :D
[Galaxy Note II General] BarryH_GEG:
I'm glad it's doing well for HTC in Japan. It's going to take more than that though for HTC to make a comeback. VZW alone in the U.S. has 96MM customers; all of Japan has 121MM.
[Galaxy Note II General] vincenttheoriginal:
I think that 1080p SLCD3 that the HTC J Butterfly is sporting is definitely its biggest buying point, regardless of the 2020mAh battery. ;)

Otherwise, all other features exclusive to GN2, such as the S-Pen and multi-window (not to mention the monster 3100mAh battery) gives the Note 2 an edge!

*BTW Galaxy Note 2 user here! :D
[Galaxy Note II General] BlueCider:
Yeah, I just wish the Japan Model GN2 had NFC at least. Not that I'd use it all the time, but nice to have. iRda tech would be more welcome in Japan as it's really common and in use here. oh well.
[Galaxy Note II General] BarryH_GEG:
That's where HTC's historically shot themselves in the foot. The Teg3 One X's specs looked great - until the SGS3 was unveiled a couple of weeks later with a bigger removable battery and expandable storage. Months later, after the SGS3 sold 30MM copies, HTC reacts by bumping the OG One X's specs so the One X+ is at best on par with other high-end phones. Now they release the DNA/J-Butterfly/Butterfly with the world's first 1080P display only to f- it up by once again hobbling the battery and storage. Both LG and Samsung will have 1080P phones available in Q1 2013 and others will be announced at CES/MWC, once again, HTC will have a fantastic device that forces their (potential) customers to make compromises everyone else doesn't. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

Video - (Not great quality) - http://youtu.be/6sdOttZJo-o
[Galaxy Note II General] BlueCider:
There's quite a bit of good phones coming out by LG, Huwaei, Sony, Sharp. The deal though is, if those phone aren't popular enough, they'll likely never see a root solution. Those who really want to control their phones will probably steer clear of such phones because of the likely lack of support for a root. It's one reason I'm not entertaining them. However, for those who don't care about root, or being subjected to a phone company's (often useless) stack or memory hogging non-useful bundled applications and a likely poorly designed UI interface for the phone, then for those people I suppose life is a lot simpler! :D
[Galaxy Note II General] imitenotbecrazy:
I'm sorry but both those companies are a joke at this point. Maybe some day but their current devices are riddled with defects (I work at best buy and sell a lot of phones) build quality is trash and have zero support. They could be the first octacore 5mm 1080p holographic 4000mah battery with 128gb of storage and I'd pass

[Galaxy Note II General] Hunt3r.j2:
So, what do you say to the M7 then? Looks like they're launching with quad Krait v3s and Adreno 320, 1080p screen with something definitely involving higher peak brightness (SoLux trips my intuition quite strongly), 2 GB of RAM (more than enough), and a 2300 mAh battery with a 4.7" screen.
[Galaxy Note II General] Simone:
Goodluck with the battery life, unremovable battery and memory.
[Galaxy Note II General] Hunt3r.j2:
2300 mAh is pretty big. Especially when it looks like it'll be the same size as previous flagships.

If you renamed it in Windows, make sure you didn't have known file type extensions hidden. You might have named it PG86IMG.zip.zip which would cause it not to be recognized.
