RGBW? is it different than the standard RGB subpixel? like the [retina] ipad?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crashlab:
It uses IPS screen. I would inform you that IPS screen might show problems with ghosting image as new Apple Macbook Retina Display.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harry GT-S5830:
Personally I prefer IPS LCD to Super Amoled technology. I prefer the more natural tones to the saturated colours on the SAMOLED.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zinfinion:
What it is:

PLS - Plane to Line Switching. PLS screens are exclusive to Samsung.

RGB stripe - just like your desktop display.

What it is not:

IPS - In Plane Switching. While IPS and PLS are similar, there are differences, and PLS is generally thought to be superior.

RGBW - There is no evidence to support it being a RGBW display. Samsung has a RGBW display, but Google wanted a pure RGB display.

Pentile - Nope. No funky triangular subpixels or RGRB going on here.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NexusDro:
It seems like you may have a misconception here. AMOLED does not equate to pentile. Pentile refers to how the subpixels are arranged. AMOLED can have a RGB subpixel arrangement and LCD can be made to have pentile subpixel too. Just saying.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dethrat:
Well yeah the galaxy note 2 has amoled screen without pentile subpixel.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yumcax:
Nope it's PLS-LCD, not AMOLED. Completely different, no per-pixel backlight.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] intern:
Samsung seems to be saying that PLS is an IPS like display, we'll have to wait and see what the reviews say.

Wiki Link
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NexusDro:
I think you confused the Note 2 with the Note 10.1. The note 2 is SAMOLED with full RGB subpixel.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cerebeln:
It is impossible to set up such an huge OLED screen, with a high pixel density of 300 ppi.

If galaxy s3's screen(~5 inch) has a 90% yield, then a 10-inch-oled-300ppi screen would only get a 65% yield.

further more, the screen may take up too much power, around 10 watt, (white at 300nit)
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvmacd:
No, I don't have a misconception.. I know Super AMOLED means PenTile subpixel, whereas Super AMOLED+ means RGB subpixel.

At least that is what an article I read said.

At any rate I know that 'AMOLED' doesn't mean PenTile, but in most cases [aside from Super AMOLED+] it does.

And thanks everyone.. I can't wait to get one of these, but I will have to wait till they go for cheaper on craigslist, because $499 is a little to much to spend right now. [and 16GB is just a little too small]

Had an update to Google search this morning. Supposedly it now allows apps to be launched.

So far I can only get Gmail to open. Tried searching for more info but no luck.

Anyone else discovered what else opens? Is it just a few Google apps that work or is it up to the devs to allow their stuff to launch.

Edit: clock and calculator works, settings & browser doesn't

5 Main Issues with Sprint's SGN2

I posted this up on Sprint's Forum to show that they are handicapping their new phone; thought I would post here as well.

No multiwindow capability

No Apps to SD capability

No simultaneous voice and data capability

No wireless charging capability

No GSM sim card swapability

I'll probably still get the SGN2 and will be happier when an update comes later to provide for the multiwindow capability because it is one of the things I really wanted this phone for; besides the huge screen and quad core processor.

And not being able to move apps to the sd card is a step backwards when we are moving forward with Android. What is up with that? This could become a problem for me as I usually like to load up my cell with apps.

Okay, we also lost the ability to talk on the phone while also using an app on the phone. From what I understand, it is becuase of hardware configuration wouldn't allow this.

Then the wireless charging would have been nice, but Sprint removed the contacts so we can't purchase the replacement back cover that would have given us wireless charging.

Finally, while I don't plan on traveling to other countries in the near future, you never really know, so I would have liked to have a true world phone where I can utilize SIM cards from other countries for cheaper price than what Sprint charges for international roaming. As it is, Sprint permanently hardwired their own sim into the phone. Still it does have GSM capability = $$$$

Started out really excited about the Note 2, just not as excited now. Still need to upgrade from my Epic and this seems the best choice.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] xo96:
You read my mind...in all points. Thank you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ReubenRene:
yeah I'm really hoping we can at least get the multitasking update which was one of the main resins fir me purchasing this bad boy...saying a prayer!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] vwgti18:
Are these not the wireless charging contacts?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] somnifac:
Those should be the NFC contacts.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ChristopherJLee:
i'm hoping jellybomb ports it from the other roms. very jealous the other versions have it already...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tahde:
I'm sure (or atleast hope) that we will get in a update. I was excited about the feature as many others are, but if not, I'm sure devs will later port (as another member said) it over.

If I'm not mistaken, the other variants did not come out the box with the feature and received in a update some weeks later? I don't see why this would not apply to us as well. Not surprised one bit ours didn't come out the box with the feature. The international version came out, got the update before our variant even came out. I would suspect that our devices were already in route (being too late) to apply that feature?

Either way, both my wife and I are extremely happy with the device. We knew/know what could happen going into purchasing the device.

Just my first thoughts on it.

Why don't the sgs3 have it then?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] chunology:
The NFC on the SGS3 is built into the battery; The Note2's is on the back cover.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] vwgti18:
Fuk had so much hope for wirelesses charging. I'm gonna go cry now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Silent25r:
If it matters that much to you just mod it. Their is already a thread for that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] aramova:
Perhaps you've not been following the post. The Sprint version is missing the phone-side internal contacts for any wireless induction charging, so the phone, no matter what mod, cannot do it.

There *are* directions on how to mod the international and I believe some of the other US carried models to use the Palm Pre touchstone charger induction coils and bases, however, sprint fully removed this, and the SPH-L900 doesn't include these pins.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Silent25r:
Ouch. I did miss that and that sucks. I wonder if sprint rushed to get the device out early.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lepapirriky:
Wow this is a major bummer for me...I was really excited for this phone. I even returned my gs3 for this phone and went down to my epic4g but to read this.....no voice and data its a major bummer and now no wireless charging and I was hoping for a world phone....what's wrong with sprint? I really thought samsung was not letting carriers change their phones...I'm seriously considering getting the gs3 back. I was really excited for using the s pen :S
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkendvoid88:
Wrong. The contacts are on the board. Get a replacement rear housing and back plate, problem solved.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] walord:
If you really want inductive phone charging it wouldn't matter if there were contacts (hidden or not). Other phones that never had it as an option have been modded to work with inductive charging.

http://www.pocketables.com/2010/06/...rk-with-palm-touchstone-wireless-charger.html

BTW, there is a thread showing the internals of the Sprint phone and it looks like the inductive charging leads are just under the back plastic piece. They just need to be tested with a multimeter when the battery is in place to confirm.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZenInsight:
Screen record and Google wallet. Don't forget.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbpaddler:
I knew about the last three but not the first two nor wallet or screen record. WTF? I don't understand the reasoning behind removing functionality that are determining factors to have this phone in the first place. Split screen was a huge selling point for me. Bad enough I gave up my keyboard. On screen typing just sucks, even if I can do it efficiently. Split screen was supposed to be a great way to reference from one while typing into another.

Sprint hasn't done one thing that is customer friendly ever since the iphone came to town. Policies and perks all tightened and done away with. Now phones are all gimped out with embedded batteries, embedded gsm sims and removed features. Did they take a Verizon 101 class last year?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] chucktownscitch:
Disappointed for sure. Especially with the no voice and data, wtf... Cant even take a picture while on a phone call. Thats just ridiculous.

Called sprint seeing what they coukd do for me since I had an evo3d with failing digitizer and not eligible for an upgrade until May 1st...

They offered me the buy up program for 65 $ to move my upgrade date to that day. Which was November 1st. Had to sell them my 3d back (which was becoming unusable with phantom screen touches) and got 53 $ for it. Went ahead and handed over my MINT OG evo as well for 38 $ ...

First night was rough getting used to size and touchwiz. But after a full day yesterday its becoming easier to accept. And now I find out all this **** is missing that originally drew me to this in the first place.

Now im really leaning towards taking it back for the sg3. Being able to do other things while on the phone such as even just take a pic is important, or sending a text while on phone. Or a number of the listed things missinf in our sprint version for that matter.

can anyone inform me about the gs3 being able to do voice + data?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbpaddler:
GS3 does SVDO. It's nice. I have both phones (S3 and Note2). If I don't find the stylus useful enough, I'll probably go back to it. The GS3 is just a nice phone all around. I haven't found anything I don't like about it. I even got accustomed to the size. The Note2's size is growing on me though. Personally I want my keyboard in a premium phone with no gimped features like the Photon Q. Anything embedded is just wrong as is no HD screen on a premium phone.

I remember not being able to take a pic while on a call with my Epic. I really don't understand why that is not possible. Logically I can't make sense of it.

I'm emailing my Care rep with the issues with the Note 2 though to see what comes of it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] chucktownscitch:
Yeah not being able to take a pic while on a call makes absolutely no sense and its quite crippling to the device. Just called my cousin and he says he isnt able to access camera on his sprint sg3 as well while on call with me?? Has to be a Samsung software thing. I'm wondering if rooting and a new rom such as cm10 would cure this. But I definitely know not being able to browse the web while on a call and no wifi or send mms is a huge dealbreaker for me.

Sadly I got rid of both my evos to get this cheaper and the 3d I HAD to give back since I hadnt completed my original contract. Luckily my cuousins girl still has og evo so im gonna go retest a few things now. As much as im starting to like this phone it may be returned within hours.

Why cant we get wtf we pay for.

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:29 AM ----------

Just got cousin to confirm being on a call and no wifi and able to browse the web.

This note is definitely going back now as I assume that is hardware related and no software update or custom rom will allow for being able to do svdo things?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbpaddler:
Well my Epic was as far removed from stock as possible. I couldn't even do the drop down menu while on a call which was baffling. Still couldn't make a phone call. It does come in handy too when you're out and about and talking to someone you want them to be able to reference, give an opinion on and so forth. Emergencies, scene of an accident or what not.

Doesn't tick me off since I haven't been able to do it, but it is an annoyance because it would be convenient.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] chucktownscitch:
And as far as the not taking a picture issue must clearly be a samsung thing as you had same ossue with the epic. Imagine custom rom would iliminate that particular issue though?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] a454nova:
Its a setting in the feature.xml. I posted a how to in the DEV area, along with a ton of others.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] chucktownscitch:
Thanks for the camers feature fix. Will be useful for my cousins sg3 and my new sg3 in a few hours.

Unfortunately the lack of SVDO is a dealbreaker for me as I use this a lot. Really sucks because I was beginning to love the note 2.

Although it supports SVLTE , I have no LTE in my ares yet. The sprint reps have said it is projected to be here by beginning of next year, but when do we really see things on their projected dates. Wouldn't want to take a chance on it being mid way thru 2013 before we get it in my area.

Just researched and the gs3 has both SVDO and SVLTE capabilities so I wont be loosing out on that option whenever we do infact get 4glte .

Again thanks for the feature fix as I will definitely be using that. I assume that fix isnt needed on another room that isnt using that xml tho?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] waxworkz:
Ok so first a little back ground... I have an at&t skyrocket, rooted and unlocked running gb on the t-mobile network. I have also flashed the blaze radio and it was working great. All of a sudden last night I have no Internet unless I am on wifi. I have good signal strength, batt is charged, tried several areas, wife's stock blaze phone is working perfectly so it's not the network. I noticed yesterday I started having issues after a spam email was open while I was trying to delete it. After that I had several missed texts,mms not working. I down loaded 2 anti viruses and neither came up with anything. I don't want to wipe the phone unless it's my last option, is there anyway to tell if my internet connection is being blocked? Maybe that spam email has hijacked my connection? When I check the widget I have for network, it's green and shows Tmobile 4g, is there anyway to tell if I do have network connectivity and it's just blocked?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
I am assuming that you have already tried shutting the phone all the way down, letting it set for a minute then starting it back up?

Yes I have, pulled batt, let sit about 5 mins reassembled and nothing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
You might want to take a look at your APN settings and make sure nothing malicious has messed around with them.

Mine quit working one time and I bout pulled my hair out trying to figure out what was going on. As it turns out, something had changed my APN to use a proxy server. Once I removed that one setting from the APN it started working again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] waxworkz:
Will do right now. Thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] waxworkz:
Unfortunately that is not the case with me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hitekredneck:
You can always try an "in place" flash of the ROM that your are currently running. Simply flash it with only cache and dalvik cache wipes and see if that clears up the problem. If you have heavily modified your setup you will lose the mods, but that should fix the problem. I don't really think that the spam email you received, has anything to do with the problem you are experiencing. I am not a big believer in coincidence but this is an exception. I think it was just the luck of the draw that it started acting up after you received the spam email. I could be wrong, but in either case the in place flash should clear up the problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] waxworkz:
Thank you for the direction. I didn't end up doing this, I re flashed the blaze radio and that seems to have done something. I don't know what the issue was but seems to be ok for now. Hopefully it doesn't start happening again.

I have 30 TF700 tablets that need to be identical and was wondering if there was a way to clone them.

How would one go about doing this?

Thanks!

PS: I originally tried making back-ups with CWM, Nandroid, & Titantium with no luck. The apps don't recognize any SD card even though the OS & file viewers do. I've manually moved the back-ups onto the card, but still no luck. It's probably user error as I am fairly new to Android.
