I'm a heavy user, I love my 4600mah battery for my gs3, looks like I get the gn2 tomorrow; so i'm looking at this battery and drooling. I know

exactly

what you mean about fitting in your hand. I spend my time doing anything from navigation while making phone calls or streaming music, extensive skype usage, constantly in my browser.. fpse is my favorite pastime (and, in fact, why i want this phone, the extra screen will be perfect for gaming those dusty ps1 games in the closet). I've been known to blast my hulu or netflix anytime anywhere, and i like my screen on bright, with all my services running like gps constantly. I get 10-12hrs of screen time depending on my usage..

any way we could get some benchmarks? how much screen on time are we talking? are you gaming, or just reading a book, or streaming video?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] 白い熊:
No, I don't feel like benchmarking anything.

Basically I can confirm though that this battery is supposedly almost 3x the capacity of the stock one, and based on my experience so far this is indeed so. Thus, I think it's a high quality battery, and whatever you're doing with the phone, you'll be able to do almost three times as long.

I personally think extended batteries are not required for the Note 2, so far this is the best Android phone I have ever used and the battery lasts a day under heavy usage...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] 白い熊:
OT, these are not extended batteries, these are external.

Could you post new impressions about this battery?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] xartic12:
I snatched up a 6500mah Onite extended today and should arrive friday. I bought 2 extra of the Onite batteries as well to have 3 batteries in rotation while slow charging each one when I pull it out.

I'm sure this extended battery I bought will turn out to have some serious battery life, for maybe when I get up on some gaming or using it for a gps in my car. I will say that having 3 batteries is very easy to manage and it keeps my phone from being locked up on a charger. Plus it's easier on the batteries discharging them weekly rather than daily.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] starscalling:
o:

Cool, if you feel its giving the approximate 2.6x original, i'm happy with that, thanks for considering it anyway ^^;

Turns out the fool that was selling the note listed the note1 as a note2, so I may be lagging a cpl more weeks :/.

On the upside, my gs3 intl is certainly a good phone, and i am happy with it... guess i'll miss that lte and ram.. gl with ur note! :cyclops:

Id really consider one myself but does the supplied case cover all the chrome on the side of phone, because obviously you wont be able to add an additional case?

I suspect not but a picture of the front of the phone with the case on would be great if you get chance. :good:

hyperion

i just switched to the note from my old Dinc,

i ordered a Hyperion 6200mah with backplace and a case. they make cases that only fit their backplates from what i can tell.

never heard of them, but the reviews on amazon were good. We shall see..
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] iflip:
I wish they would make an extended battery with significantly more mah than oem that wouldn't require a bigger battery door. Like a 3600 or 4000mah perhaps. I'm a heavy user but don't like the added bulk. I'll probably just get a 2nd oem.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] one80oneday:
They make them but they're fake. Might be worth it as a spare battery though.

I wish they would make a suitcase that fits in a carry on space in an airplane that would also hold my BMW.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ugzz:
So i got my stuff in yesterday,

went through the steps to install and do a full charge.

First off, i was noticing it charging super slow, i figured this was becasue it was extended. but i realized that it was becasue i wasnt using the 110->usb that came with the galaxy. I was using one from my old phone.

i have about 5 or 6 wall plug -> usb adapters around my place as i have a tablet and a nook as well. They are all 500mA, but the galaxy usb is 2.0A.

Anyway, the instructions say it takes 12 hours to do a full charge, but my battery came with about 60% battery life, and once i got it on the right charger it charged overnight and i had the green light and a 100% readout. (about 7 hours)

Now for the actual product, the battery is "much" heavier, i don't have a small kitchen scale but it feels to me like its more than double the weight. Hyperion offers both black and white back covers. Oddly enough on amazon the white case with battery was on sale for 15 and the black was 20. I have a grey galaxy so of course i wanted the darker color, but i noticed they also offer a case for their extended battery cover. So i ended up buying the white battery and the case for 20$.

all of the reviews said "how can this be good, its so cheap", but it gets near the full 5 star rating on amazon with a good amount of reviews. so i went for it.

Its only day 2 here, but i have to say i freaking love it. I thought it was a bit heavy the first maybe.. hour of use, now i think it feels just fine. The case does however come with a kickstand that is really crap. it moves more than it should and if you poke the phone while on the kickstand it will slid down too far, and it feels like the stand would snap if i pushed the phone down even more.

Kickstand aside, i love it, but the kickstand is in the middle of the phone so when I hold it natually for use i can feel it with my middle finger, but its no big deal.

i also really like the hex pattern on it

i could prolly get some pics or something as well if people are interested
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
Would you mind linking to the battery and case you bought? I've got a white one, and I'd love to have a big backup battery.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ugzz:
No probs

i picked up this guy:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A6UHNRW/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i01

and this case:

http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Sams...57935178&sr=1-1&keywords=galaxy+note+extended

they also have the case in white:

http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Sams...7934650&sr=8-11&keywords=galaxy+note+extended

I am not real familiar with this company, but everything seems really solid and legit. Ive had a high moderate use on my phone including playing games for about half an hour from 9am to now (going on 3:30pm). and i'm at 91% battery. Also i had no problem with any clips like some reviews said, but i was careful from the get go. And ive had it off and on a few times messing with my micro sd, so far so good..
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vagelis:
What about the battery door?

Does it have the NFC antenna?

Thank you in advance.

Why not use a spare normal size battery? You get more power but save the size and weight of the device

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
Thanks for the links.

The product description reads:

***NOTE*** Back Cover has had a mid-line change to accommodate the eventual use of NFC chip. Updated pictures will be coming soon.​

So, to answer your question, yes, it does support NFC.

That's what I'm doing now, but there are times where I'd prefer to not have to swap out the battery, such as when I'm remoting into my PC at home and doing work that way. It's more of a backup solution for some people, and more of a convenience thing for others.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Max_Pain:
Just wanted to chime in and put in a good word for Hyperion. Used them on my evo 3d and on my galaxy s3. Cheap but great battery life and great quality.

Im holding back from getting an extended battery on this phone because its so large already adding an extended battery really makes it into a brick.

But as far as hyperion goes...well worth it.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ugzz:
after a few more days of use i have to say i couldnt have adjusted more.

The whole phone felt too light and plasticky to me, the new back cover / case and weight from the battery realy even it out and make it feel more the way i would think it should.

since the hyperion has the bulge at the bottom just for the batt and not the top it makes it easier to hold in your hand. it just sort of fits right where i want it, it actually touches my palm now and feels more secure then just holding the outside corners. there doesnt seem to be any effeect at all on the flash or camera since the top doesnt have any extra thickness, and as asked, yes there are metal connectors built in for NFC, however they said the connectors don't go anywhere as of yet, they just sort of run along the back of the case in a slot, but they say they will offer an add on that clips in. I don't see myself ever use any of those features so i just disabled them all anyway.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] xmavrickx2005:
Okay, I bought this after reading good reviews here. and it was a rip-off.

Its double the size of the original, and gives about the same juice as original.

The grey back cover was actually nice. So I got a spare 3100mAh battery which is double the size and a back-cover which is pretty decent for $28. So not completely pissed off. I only bought it to use on long trips, and I guess I will just carry the spare on the trips and switch.

And yes I've had it for over 2 weeks now, and I've completely drained and fully charged 3 times and didn't see any increase in juice compared to the stock battery. Its suppose to be 2.5x the juice .. but got 1x.

Hi,

I've created a flashable zip based on the files extracted by dmmarck (it's all his doing! I'm just packaging it). Just flash from CWM or TWRP.

Everything should work: regular pics, photosphere, gallery and editor. On my device, it all coexists nicely with my existing camera and gallery.

Edit: just noticed that garner had updated his own thread with more things working. It seems his archive contains fewer files, which is great if you want to save space. If it's not working for you, though, try this version.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] salahmed:
Thanks a lot, I was trying to download the zip from another thread but it just keep disconnecting and restarting. this is working perfectly.:thumbup:

Currently using dark paranoid 2.25.1 tablet mode and this camera app working much better and faster than the stock 4.1.2 camera. Loved that photosphere shots.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tower1972:
the ONLY problem I am having with the photosphere is that it seems to snap pictures when the blue dot isnt directly center of the target. Its close to but not directly center which leads to most of my pictures being "off" from one another.. I wonder if theres a way to slow down the speed or pause it for a second so the blue dot lines up correctly :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cyansmoker:
In my case, I found out that actually slowing down while panning with my phone made things better. I guess my phone was having a hard time figuring out what I was aiming it at.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tower1972:
i've tried to slow it down also (this isnt the panorama selection but the photosphere), but once the blue dot to line up the next shot gets close to the target recticle center where it should be(might be a better word), it snaps the next picture before even getting in the center :P if that makes sense
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frahmadani:
I get force close when opening both camera and gallery app. Hmm.. not sure what's wrong though.

I have a cwm backup, but is there other way to restore old camera back? maybe someone has the original apk for camera and gallery?

if not I'll just do a full restore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garner:
Im working on the HDR mode i just cant seem to edit the apk
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshrys:
I've tried the other zip and this one. neither seems to work for me. i only see the normal camera and gallery apps. i am using BAMF current rom. I do see a gallery2.apk, gallery4, and googlegallery. any idea what's going on? is there a way to create a shortcut to the new ones?

nvm, fixed it, renamed other apks, changed perm and rebooted...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cyansmoker:
I believe that as long as you delete /system/app/GalleryGoogle.apk and reboot your phone, you should have access to your old camera.

Of course it is different from ROM to ROM...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] decalex:
Hm.. that's what she said.

(Helpful post of the year)

;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tower1972:
rename the gallery2.apk to gallery.bak, then try to install. I dont see a gallery4 on mine (current Bamf), just a GALAXY4, which is a lwp and googlegallery is what the new one is (I think).

I IS possible to make a mod that adds a controller to the Nexus 7. The question is, is it possible for us to make one? Or do we have to wait for a company to make one?

I've looked into making one but the problem all the controller boards are one single board, none of them are split in the middle. If anyone has any ideas post them here.

Theoretically of course it's possible to make one, its a big challenge but we already know we can OTG connect an Xbox/ps3 controller.

[size=+1]Nexus 7 Cradle Joystick Controller Mod[/size]

[youtube]6WQBkhT0svw[/youtube]

When I first saw the WikiPad I definitely wanted the cradle style that engages the screen with the user. I'm guessing we will have to wait.

I did make one on the cheap (less than $8 out of pocket due to a gift card and some parts at home). It gives 4 buttons on the right and 4-way directional control which can be used in conjunction to the touch screen buttons- nothing compared to a SixAxis, but I haven't seen any cradle type joysticks like the WikiPad. I use it for emu's that I play most the time, key mapping is required, and is not natively recognized.

This first one I made as a quick mod with intentions of being budget minded. With your post, you have me thinking of making a BT SixAxis like dual analog with 2 trigger buttons however...

I'm thinking this cradle can be used to house the PCB behind the Nexus7 (inside the cradle case with a panel cover) since there is a decent amount of inner depth, while being able to solder and route wires to potentially add the analog sticks all behind the scenes... I predict a little bit of fiberglassing to accomodate the button and stick housings, but I don't see it being impossible. Maybe my next project in line.

Original Thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=33436763
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukems:
That's an impressive cradle you made there. I've yet to look at the controller, I'll be taking it to work with me tomorrow so I'll post the feasibility to slicing it in two tomorrow.

Yeah I imagine it would have dpad and analogue stick.on left, buttons and analogue stick on right, that would be sweet.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n7GU22:
I'm a little bit into classic gaming/Mame cabinets, a lot of people dissect the 360 or psx controllers to use the PCB for input and run long wires all the way to their buttons. I'm sure by the time I made one using good components with my luck one will be already manufactured for cheaper. Still would be a good challenge for a weekend project.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukems:
So I had a look at my 360 controller, you're right its one complete circuit board, no place to separate it anywhere.

I think it may be possible to remove analogue sticks and mount them, and run wires back to the board. And as you say, house the board and wires in the back or bottom of the housing.

I may have to find a cheaper controller to go butchering mind!

Hi,

Does Cyanogenmod 10 sync twitter/facebook contacts?

In my One X contact sync is enabled for Facebook, google, whatsapp and linkedin, but no for twitter. In Settings > account > twitter sync is enabled.

EDIT: I was wrong about Facebook contact sync. Even though its listed under the accounts to display contacts from, its empty, no contacts are shown. But in case of twitter its not even listed under the accounts to display contacts from.
[HTC One X] KenshinBHX:
AFAIK you need a 3rd party app (in HTC Sense they use Facebook for HTC Sense and Twitter for HTC Sense to sync)

You should try FriendCaster Pro or HaxSync from Play Store (which is not free)

I was wondering how it was working on sense ROM's. So HTC apps are the magic ingredients there. I hope Twitter ad Facebook fixes this in near future.

First time poster, though been a regular lurker.

It seems I have a slightly dodgy proximity sensor. Have checked with one of the proximity sensor apps and while the sensor detects if I have my hand over it, it is very unreliable when I take my hand off. It can take from anywhere from 1 to 30 seconds or sometimes never.

While ive been through other threads where people have a completely failed sensor, does anyone have this intermittent problem. Also is this a hardware or software issue.

Im currently htc-dev unlocked running Pacman v15.0.
[HTC Desire S] Jann F:
Out there is a tool for recalibrating the sensor, but you would need to be S-OFF I think and it's done with a service tool (a special PG88DIAG.nbh)

Let me know if you are willing to try it, but it is VERY dangerous if you do the wrong things.
