[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
Verizon has a decent sized LTE network. It's getting to the point where if you're in any well populated area, you'll have 4G service. They are still expanding, and have a lot of work to do before their 4G coverage has the same reach as their 2G/3G network, but they're the only carrier that is even close to having a full next generation network. The price is high, but you get great service in return. Their software updates may be slow, but they also tend to have fewer issues with software updates than other carriers. T-Mobile and Sprint are the only two fast carriers when it comes to updates, and both AT&T and VZW are on the slow end for product updates and also they tend to have more preinstalled junk than other carriers as well. Customer service is hit or miss. It really depends on what you're having a problem with. Their software/hardware troubleshooting leaves a lot to be desired, but it is still better than the rest on average from what I've heard. They tend to be much better with account issues from my experiences, but I don't have any recent comparisons to another carrier for that to say if it's better or worse.

AT&T will have better battery life on their phones as they are full GSM, not a CDMA/GSM (LTE) hybrid network. The nice thing is you can unlock a phone and use it on their network, something you can't do with VZW, and this opens up a lot of possibilities for phones. They tend to be a little less controlling when it comes to devices they sell as well (branding, locking, etc.). Cost is on par with VZW, and you shouldn't have a problem with coverage as long as you aren't travelling through an unpopulated area. However, coverage isn't the same as what VZW offers, and the network can be over saturated in some areas. They have more "4G" than VZW, but most of this is HSPA+, note LTE. Speeds are comparable, but LTE has the potential for much faster speeds in the future, where HSPA+ is pretty much being maxed out.

Overall, I wouldn't say that one is significantly better than the other. Neither is a good option if you are looking to cut costs, and customer service is probably about the same for most things. A lot of customer service issues are going to really depend on who you talk to, as there are always times you get the person that doesn't know anything and doesn't care, they're just there for the paycheck, and other times you get someone that cares or knows what they're doing, and it solves your problem fast. One thing good about VZW is that all of their call centers are in the US, not sure about AT&T. I think the choice should really be, do you want to pay for the network and go through the hassle of switching carriers just for a phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mi7chy:
Verizon LTE coverage is great and speed used to be great when first rolled out but it's just good now with widespread usage. The one major red flag is frequent LTE disconnects across multiple different LTE handsets such as HTC Thunderbolt, Motorola Rzr series, etc. Sometimes it goes for a few days without a hiccup then usually around midnight it starts going into a frequent LTE disconnect/reconnect, sometimes as often as several times per minute, so data is useless. This problem occurs with 4G LTE and 3G eHRPD which have the same authentication method in common. Disabling 4G LTE and forcing 3G EVDOrevA works fine but I believe it uses a different authentication method. This leads me to believe that it's a network, possibly Diameter authentication, issue. Having to live with this issue for a few months now I'm about fed up. If I hear the Galaxy Note II has the same issue I'm seriously jumping ship to Tmobile.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
I use my phone at all hours of the day and never have issues with data just randomly disappearing unless VZW is in the middle of a nationwide problem, which hasn't happened for a little while now. I think that they finally got most of the issues they were having to cause the outages sorted, after almost 2 years.

Hello, hoping someone can help me here – cause I think it’s a pervasive problem

Basically I recently got my Samsung Note (Gingerbread OS), and I use steaming Bluetooth audio quite often – it works perfectly. Nice clear, perfectly crisp

An OTA update for Ice cream Sandwich was available, so I updated it. But now I’m having major Bluetooth audio problems. Often the audio would be choppy (like the song would begin to skip every few seconds).

I tried closing background apps, turning off auto rotate, leaving the screen off/on, soft reset to no avail…..

Details

- Samsung Galaxy Note I717

- Running Stock ROMs

- Upgraded from GB to ICS (4.0.4) OTA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
What bluetooth speakers/headphones?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Major153:
Its a Nissan Altima. It worked fine under ginger bread, don't know why it would no longer work properly under ice cream sandwich...

Queston, when you do a ota upgrade, should I have (hard) reset my phone?

Sent from my SGH-I717R
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
How do you fit that on your head?

Yes, you should wipe caches, then factory reset, then apply the update. But just wipe now. That has been a solution for me.

Is there a way to update the firmware on your altima's player?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Major153:
Hmmm... I didn't know that - good to know for the future. Thanks

How would I perform a wipe cache?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Major153:
I tried going in to recovery mode by holding power + volume up key...

But I get the following warning screen:

A custom OS can cause critical

problems in phone and installed

applications.

If you want to download a custom

OS press the volume up key.

Otherwise, press the volume down

key to cancel.

Volume up:* Continue

Volume down:* Cancel (restart phone)

On my old HTC, I was prompted with a menu; but I'm having issues on my Samsung... Any advice?

Oh.... I thot the volume was a toggle, didn't know I could hit both at the same time. Great thanks! It goes in to recovery mode now.

I'll try wiping my cache after I get home and do a back up. Hope it will fix my Bluetooth issue :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DeeHawk:
I have this same issue, only after updating to 4.0.4 (i.e there was no issue with stock version, or 4.0.3)

I've reset my phone several times after, updating all over again, trying every player possible.

Tried different bluetooth headsets (only stereo ones).

The problem persists, but only when WiFi is ON!

The audio skipping seems to appear mainly when Android OS is scanning for Wireless Networks (happens more than once per track), but also under heavy data traffic via WiFi (i.e. downloading a torrent or playing a HD video on youtube.)

It should be noted that my phone is Danish (Telia), and not AT&T.

boot to recovery

Hi, there are several ways to boot in recovery, i use two:

1-with s7 connected to pc execute "adb reboot recovey"

2-with s7 powered off, click "menu + call (green button) + power" for 30 seconds, or until the cwm menu apear.

There is several version of cwm for the s7-10x, depends in version of installed firmware, the more recent one that works best is version 6.1.2 by ere, google is your best friend to find it, if not tell me and i will upload the file.

Hope it helps,

Done in to Recovery, but stuck on Ideos logo..

Thanks, now I am able to boot in recovery mode......I did copied cyanogenmod 9 "cm-9-20120913-EXPERIMENTAL-s7-asturel.zip", but my screen is stuck on IDEOS logo..I waited for 30 mins or so, but still on the same logo...so I had to restore from backup...any thoughts on this...plz help...:cyclops:
[Ideos S7 General] hal_2000:
Hi, i havent try cm9 by asturel, you can try flash it again, the problem is that cm9 and cm10 needs special kernel to boot, diferent then the stock kernel.

if the device does not boot in 10 minutes some thing wrong happended, you can try flash the kernel first and then the roms, inside the zip file there is a file "boot.img" thats the kernel, steps :

1-backup the working rom :) , always a good ideia :good:

2-boot in fast mode "vol up+home+power", fastboot mode apear on screen

3-connect s7 to pc, execute "fastboot flash boot boot.img", the boot.img file must be on same directory as fastboot

4-to reboot execute "fastboot reboot"

5-menu+call+power go to cwm install zip file, install the rom

If doest work, try other rom, there is several model of s7-10x, not all rom are compatible

[HTC One S] runn1ngman:
I have been on CM10 for the past 4 weeks or so. Love it, but google navigation keeps crashing anywhere from immediately to ~30 seconds after launch. Maps, directions work fine, just when I launch NAV. running 20121101.063920 but this issue has been happening in the last couple of builds. Can anyone help?

I am seeing the exact same problem on recent CM10 builds for the Sprint EVO 4G LTE. I've been unable to find the cause.

Me too :(

I have the same issue. HTC EVO lte Other than that really annoying bug in GNav, I LOVE cm10. One other issue that I have is that sometimes on third party apps, when I pause music, it will pause, and then play for a second and then repause itself.
[HTC One S] labroste:
Same issue here... It happened to me since first nightly... I've lost hope... Will change to a sense based rom.

will not change, read the posts about the stock jb release sense based, we have the same problem. HTC is obviously sitting on its ass!! As usual.

Stuck with crashing NAV now.

Yep... I've tried several sense based roms since I originally posted this. I'm tempted to go back to stock ROM, but I'm Cincinnati Bell Wireless and haven't been able to find my stock one. I wasn't smart enough to back up the original ICS that came with the phone. Guess I'm stuck with whatever NAV can give me in the 15 seconds before it locks up each time.

Another EVO LTE user with same issue

Another EVO LTE user with the same problem. Almost immediately after opening to the navigation screen after selecting a destination, the app crashes. :( This seems to happen on 10 and 10.1.
[HTC One S] aikeru:
Any fix yet?

Anyone know a fix to this yet?

Seems whether I run a stock-based or CM-based ROM I still get this issue if it's Jelly Bean.

The workaround has been to run Google Navigation in 2D mode... ALL the time... :(

Took some getting used to, but it's pretty silly to be stuck with this.

Long term... I'm moving to S4.

If you want something that doesn't look like stock/stock variation, give JJ's Hybrid a try. In every stock-based rom HDMI should work ok.

Hello everyone

A couple of days ago, I installed CM 9.1 on my rooted Xperia mini pro. So far so good, except that the hardware/slide-out keyboard isn't working properly. I have a danish layout (QWERTY with special letters Æ, Ø, Å), and the special letters doesn't work. Neither does the blue key, nor the "sym" key or the shift/caps-lock key. I tried to install a minor fix via a zip-file in the recovery-boot, but it seems like i just made it worse. Anyone who knows a solution to this? :)

Is it possible to flash firmware from sprint note 2 to Verizon network?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BDawgTrap:
No. Verizon and sprint will not allow a device on their network that doesn't have their ESN #. you could unlock it onto cricket...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] razball:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Epix4G:
Technically yes you can do it. .... But it's also a Grey area and is kind of illegal. ... It involves using a Verizon phone esn and cloning it ... People have done it before but to me it's more trouble than its worth

Sent from my SPH-L900 using Xparent Blue Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] iwin2000:
it is definitely possible and not too hard with the Sprint GN2. I've flashed the phone to Boost Mobile successfully and for Verizon it would just be a matter of changing the same things but just different values.

As I have understood it is not illegal as long as you own both phones and you are not stealing someone else's ESN and stealing their service.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BDawgTrap:
Exactly. And I beleive it is very illegal but I haven't actually done it haha.

Not quite. For service providers like cricket and boost mobile (there are many others as well) they will take any esn #. The big players (sprint and Verizon (possibly others as well)) will not, they will only take esn numbers that are specifically for their network. You could flash it over and have all the correct values, but verizon will not activate it. It could work hypothetically but it won't due to carrier regulations. As pointed out just barely it requires cloning another phone and is illegal.

[Nexus 10 General] SilverHedgehog:
Well, maybe you could look at the gif and see that it's the Nexus 10 still having the same performance issues I had on Android since my very first Android...

Thing is, I was promised that the OS would be smooth/that it's beta software/that an update will fix it/that it's just one site.

And it's NEVER like that. Out of the five Android devices I owned (all high-end, I must add), not one didn't have any lag.

Five Android devices, five broken promises.
[Nexus 10 General] Turbotab:
The device will be smooth, but I must admit that Chrome can stutter like this, If you used Dolphin or AOSP browser it just doesn't happen. Google dropped the ball with Chrome, it should have been updated faster, by making it the stock browser they are hurting the Nexus 10's reputation, this a a quote from the The Verge's review

"Not everything's perfect yet: scrolling in the browser can still be stuttery at times"

If Google had used stock AOSP browser, then perception of the device smoothness would have been much better. I cannot understand why Google released the device when a major part of the software was not bringing its A-GAME.

Are you crazy? Nexus 10 is super smooth you wont believe it, what does that stupid gif tell you? Buy the device and you will see. What a silly impression of the nexus 10-.-"
