It's not possible AFAIK since they're from TouchWiz. It's better to get used to a 3rd party apps instead so you can use it everywhere.

Kinda what I figured, oh well. FX file explorer is pretty nice so far, just what I want.
[Motorola Atrix 2] toastthemost:
Kinda worried this will happen again. It has never happened before. Looking at my charging stats, it was on full charge for about 5 hours. It was charging abnormally hot, like at 38 to 40.

Should I be worried? Is there a fix?

Also, I would like to mention that after flashing back to stock and OTA-ing to 4.0.4, my battery life has been piss poor, doing the same stuff as I did before. It barely holds its charge throughout the day, even if I did half as much before I reverted to stock. Is this normal, or should I run a battery calibration tool?

Thanks!

Wrong section. Questions go to Q&A.

[Motorola Atrix 2] hellsrage619:
I'm also wondering why after getting 4.0.4 my battery has just died, before the upgrade I could go a few days on idle,(barely using my phone) now it seems that regardless of if the phone is in use or not it drains either within a day or twice a day.

It ludicrous I haven't changed anything and this is all with wifi and data off, I only turn it on when I need to.

Anything I can do to fix it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] K.0.0.L.:
I need someone who is not an unboxer or professional to review this phone. I am planning to sell my GS3 to get this phone because my upgrade isn't mature till 8 more freaken month. I have went to sprint store to playing around with the phone but people said to judge by the display model due to magnet issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] trim81:
Honestly?

I'm a phone guy.

I tried it all. From htc evo, to evo 3d, to galaxy epic og, to epic touch s2 to galaxy.s3, etc etc.

And I also own my own cell phone business.

With that being said, personally, to me, all androids are alike.

I know there can be many arguments with my statement, with core speeds, etc etc etc, but we are all on xda site anyway, so we are probably all rooters and flashaholics.

The ONLY difference, again in my opinion, are screen size on devices. That differentiates the devices and performance of the the phone.

Now for the review? I liked the s2 epic touch, I owned it since launch day, then I went to the s3 about 3 weeks after launch.

The s2 to s3 conversion, to me, was not a big upgrade. Sure it was a bugger screen estate, but not much for me to jump ship. I wanted a bigger screen.

With that, I resold the s3 and went back to the s2. And now I'm on my note 2.

I'm not a professional reviewer or any of that sort. I just know cell phones. It's what I do for a living. And personally, with every android device, I titanium backup my preference and settings back to my desired look between phones, so I'm probably not the best reviewer out there.

If you want a big screen, this phone is for you. But be aware that it's VERY CHALLENGING to text with one hand, or give a quick reply when driving on the road. That's my only gripe.

Gps locks are fast, reception is great. But all those were already fixed with the s3 so it's probably the same in comparison.

I don't find myself using the s-pen much.

As far as usability, I use my phone alot. I have 6 emails pushed through k9 mail, and use about 13,000 text messages monthly. So yeah I would consider myself a heavy phone user.

In the end, buy it if you want a big screen. But if you are okay with the s3 screen size, to me, save your money.

Those are just my thoughts. Of course you will be getting bias reviews on this dedicated note 2 forum.. So be aware of that.

S3 is still in my opinion, a very nice phone. Fast as he'll and fast radio locks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] donnelljrn:
I'm a big guy. 6 foot 4 240 pounds . I hate carrying around small phones. I wanted the iphone and its just to small for me. I got the note 2. I love it ! And jelly bean is great. This is the phone I have been waiting for , for a while.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrush:
Best phone ever made so far IMO. I'm not big about using the S Pen... mostly a novelty for me. I was huge flasher on evo and the S2 but this phone feels like everything just came together.

Yes, one handed use is slightly awkward and might want to be careful with in case of a drop but hey, no one needs to be texting on the road anyways! I'm a pilot so I'm constantly pulling my luggage through the airport and need to glance at my phone to check a gate or something one handed... its OK for that, but any extensive texting would be difficult. Really this is my only concern... dropping the phone.

Spec wise, the phone is cutting edge. Its snappy and its a dream. So like the other guys said, it really comes down to screen size. I love big screens and I cannot lie... I'm willing to sacrifice a little mobility for that any day!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] afgomar:
Had the evo gnex and s3 before this note 2 and the note blows everything outta the water.

At the end of the day its ur decision
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] loveshinesthru:
I loved my GS3 and I sold mine to get the note 2. I am not a professional or an unboxer. The note 2 is pretty much just like the GS3 but bigger and has a stylus. My stylus is a little bit sensitive, i need to turn it down as soon as I figure out how to get the button cover off. I play draw something everyday. On my GS3 it was really glitchy. On the note 2 its not as glitchy. There are a few extra features like being able to set the keyboard to the right or to the left to help with one handed usability. The battery lasts an awful long time! I had an extended battery on my GS3 but I dont need one for my note 2. I love it! I hated being without my GS3 after I sold it, but the note 2 is worth it!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] skw5115:
And also don't forget that the battery life on this phone is absolutely phenomenal
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Devi0124:
There is a1 handed option in setting s that sets your keyboard and dialer to the right or left side of the phone for easier one handed texting. It's an awesome feature for such a big phone...beyond that i had the moment, then the epic, then the e4gt, skipped the s3 because of the announcement of this phone and no disappointment. It's awesome
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] K.0.0.L.:
Your thanks meter just went up. I appreciate u honest experience.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] K.0.0.L.:
I need the s pen to take note in class. The size is a bonus.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] K.0.0.L.:
Guess how much my early upgrade fee? $220. On top of that the phone will be $300 so im looking about $520+ nc tax too
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] loveshinesthru:
yikes! for 8 months? my brothers upgrade was due in may but contract up in july. he only had to pay 100. I sold my GS3 on ebay for 430. It was rooted and had cases and extended batteries. I sold it as soon as I heard the note 2 was coming. Plus mine was only a month old. It sure helped for covering the cost.

Changelog for SWAPALL v3.0 version:

1: removed code involving use of build.prop entries as it proved to be buggy

2: intenal data(/dev/stl13) will be formatted to linux swap filesystem and will be setup for use with priorities along with mmc swap partition

3: swappiness set at 30

Changelog for SWAPALL v2.2.1 version:

(OBSOLETE, REMOVED !)

1: new code for conditional /data-swap mounting & swapfile activation

- /data-swap (/dev/stl13) will be activated when sdext is successfully mounted as /data

- swapfile on /data-swap will be created only when it is not present; if already present then it is just prepared for swap use

- used following build.prop entries managed automatically by kernel on auto-detection of sdext mount and swapfile status, thus governing conditional /data-swap mounting and swapfile activation:

PSN_ENABLE_SDEXT_DATA=1

PSN_SWAPFILE_PRESENT=0

PSN_SWAP_MAKE_NEW=1 (initial value)

- if sdext is not detected (unsuccessful mount) due to any particular reason then /data-swap is not mounted but instead /data is mounted on /dev/stl13 (traditional internal storage) and the swapfile is deleted.

- a bettter busybox is used by this kernel rather than one that comes with cm7 and it replaces busybox on rom with required symlinks.

2: SuperSU v0.97 is integrated in kernel and will replace Superuser in rom along with its su binary

Changelog for SWAPFILE version:

(OBSOLETE, REMOVED !)

Can't take cwm backups, it stops after failing to mount /data. Could this be overridden by flashing your /data format tool before taking backup? And if it is, after restoring the backup, would the partition be automatically re-formatted to swap?

Installed great on cm7.2 RC3 AA. The only problem I had was with super user not being replaced with super su. However this is overcome by downloading super su from the market and following these instructions...

1. Install SuperSU from Play Store.

2. Open SuperSU and grant it SuperUser permissions (important; if you delete SuperUser before you grant rights to SuperSU you lose your root and need to reflash your ROM.

3. Delete SuperUser from /system/app with a root file manager.

It's the lightest Root manager for android, because it doesn't use any process resident in the RAM.

As our ace has a very little ram, using this frees some memory to be used for applications.
