[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaguarXT:
If TouchWiz allowed me to have 5 rows of icons per screen then I would be happy with TouchWiz.

The only other thing I am not happy with is not having Multi-window. I know that T-Mobile wants to wait on the update until they get LTE running. That way they only need to do one update. But that is way too long for us to wait to get the Multi-window update. Hopefully they will do an update with Multi-window soon. Verizon is getting Multi-window out the door according to Samsung. And Sprint got theirs. Just AT&T and T-Mobile not yet released the update for the Multi-window feature.

One more thing: Verizon's Galaxy Note 2 gets Swift Key Flow keyboard. I hate the keyboard that we have. You have to type number keys from the top and not in the ten key style. And you don't have the option of having the "Arrow keys" on the keyboard that we have. But you get the "Arrow keys" option and ten number key style in Swift Key Flow keyboard for Note 2. I can't use a S Pen feature just to use Swift Key 3 keyboard. But you get all S pen features in Swift Key Flow keyboard for Galaxy Note 2. And yet Verizon's Galaxy Note 2 is going to have Swift Key Flow keyboard. That sucks. Not all Galaxy Note 2 devices are made equal.

That is my rant for now.

If you press and hold the button off screen and press it to the scrern and while still holding the button,draw a up arrow like this: ^ it will bring up the menu. Or do the same but draw an arrow like this: < for back button.

My issues are more with TouchWiz than anything.

Every boot it asks me what launcher I want to use. Even after I set ADW Ex as the default "Always"

Unable to disable certain stock apps. Like the stock browser, and email client. I have chrome and use Enhanced Email so I don't need these.

No Google Wallet support

The "Battery Full" notification and the fact that it turns the screen on to tell me the battery is full.

Can't change the lockscreen background image

I want more lock screen options, like the ones available in AOSP

Haven't found a Kernel with cifs support yet (if you know of one, please tell me which one)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
I think lack of wallet support has to do with the carrier, not the phone. A lot of the major carriers are trying to force everyone to use ISIS. Which wouldn't be that bad if there were a lot of places that supported that....

I don't like the way that when app shortcuts are dropped into home screen folders the os doesn't close the folder when the app shortcut executes, and when you exit the app the folders are still open.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] SMARTPHONEPC:
You really can't change the lockscreen background image..even with some lockscreen app?

I'm not sure how much I care but I like options so why is Google Wallet meeting so much carrier resistance? Root the only way to enable Google Wallet? People still using PayPal & what do people think is the future of digital wallets?

LTE deployment is not happening for T-Mobile until 2013, why do "know" that T-Mobile wants to wait on the multi-window update until the LTE update. Sprint, Verizon will have the multi-view window update, AT&T I'm hearing soon so will T-Mobile really stay officially alone without it?

The only thing that's annoying me about the Note II is the wifi keeps dropping or has very weak signal and doesn't allow me to connect to my router sometimes. But that's my only downside.

http://www.anandtech.com/show/6386/samsung-galaxy-note-2-review-t-mobile-/9 Wi-Fi performance is not great but better than for example the iPhone 3GS..

I had heard that the AT&T Note 2 update soon that includes multi-view will include Wi-Fi improvements so maybe the same will prove true for T-Mobile..? Anyone know?

You know you can change the lockscreen background right? Go to the gallery and press the menu button while in preferred image and scroll down to where it says "set as" and there you have it.

Has this problem always existed for you? I bought my Note 2 when it came out last month and just started having this problem a week ago. I've tried many things including factory resetting and swapping SIM card (not sure why that would matter). I'm about ready to send it back to samsung under warranty repair...

It's kind of difficult to type in landscape mode .

But the one thing I DONT like is when I try to plug in usb for mass storage mode if its on camera mode I have to switch it to media then back to camera to see the SDcard . and I cant get it to show media mode AT ALL.

But that could be due to the fact I use linux . but it just doesnt like to work for me : /

Auto focusing is my main gripe.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kabuk1:
I've only had it since friday, so only a couple very small gripes so far, mostly about the home button. It's taking me a while to get used to it & I'm developing kind of a love/hate relationship with it. I came from the Note 1 & the GSII before that, so I'm used to nothing but capacitive buttons on the bottom, and thanks to muscle memory I still catch myself lightly tapping the home button instead of pressing it. I only notice when the phone fails to respond and then I feel stupid, lol. Also, I wish they'd have put just another millimeter or two between the home button & the screen. I end up opening apps on accident a lot because the very tip of my thumb hits the screen when I'm trying to go home. That's annoying. That said, I LOVE being able to wake the phone with it. I loved having a front power button on my HD2 & its REALLY nice to have that functionality back. I wish there were some mods for the home button to make it work like a fully-functional power button. I'd like to remap the power key as a camera shortcut & just use the home button for power.

Also, I don't like that I can't hit the back button when I'm holding the phone in just my left hand(my usual phoning hand), but that's really an issue with my elfin hands instead of the device itself. The only other thing that kind of bugs me is the way the screen is narrower that the N1. Logically I know the entire device is bigger than it's predecessor, but it makes it feel smaller. I dunno, I'm weird about stuff like that. I just wish they'd have kept it the same width.

Other than that- by far the best phone I've ever had, hands down. I wish CM would come out for it though! Aaargh, I can't wait >.<
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
It's really starting to irk me that I plugging in a wired headset turns the screen on. Really wish I could disable that. I can't seem to find anything in the settings though.

Anyone got any ideas on that?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] KillaHurtz:
My only gripe so far is that the bezel is more like the GS2 than the GS3 (way too easy to scratch).

I got it today and noticed some small imperfections on it, much like the 1st batch of GS2s had. Taking it back to the store for an exchange, yes I'm that anal. I paid full price and want a perfect device for $749.

I HATE that USB mass storage doesnt work on linux seeing android is made from linux code . I dont understand that . And I've recently done away with windows on any drive I own so I have to borrow a computer or use wifi file transfer to interface with my cpu . SUCKS!

I'd would lose it if I had to pay 20 bucks because their device was defective. But I guess what are you gonna do? Either pay it or switch to a different manufacturer. Sucks that it is that way but the companies will always pull stuff like that until people just stop buying their product.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] HigginsHere:
Some of these have probably already been mentioned, but I will mention these anyways.

I've had the phone for about two days, and I've already done several days worth of stuff with it, nor being able to put it down. I came from an iPhone 4S.

Hardware:

Soft keys can sometimes be too easily pressed.

The power button can be too easily pressed, but I might just need to get used to it.

The phone really does feel plasticly, especially when compared to an iPhone, but the the impressive weight-to-size ratio makes up for it.

Sometimes the camera doesn't auto focus nicely with close objects.

I think this problem is specifically my own: a small portion of my screen is weird with the s-pen. It's as if it doesn't want the pen to write there and so it quickly slides past the area while still writing. It's hard to explain and it is really bothering me.

Software:

Although the keyboard has many functions, it doesn't have auto correct and I am a fast typer so I don't like having to click each individual word on predicted text in order for it to be accurate. Swiftkey from the play store works well, but not with multi window. Apple really got their keyboard right.

The rest of these complaints can be fixed with mods but they are inherent nonetheless:

No wifi toggle.

No multi Window for other apps than certain stock ones.

Bloatware.

Maybe I missed some, but maybe not because of how beastly this phone is. Even without mods and roms this phone is a beast. I love this phone.

Edit: *All with Verizon version. XDA app didn't tell me that this was in the Tmo forum, but it's not that much of a difference in terms of what I like and dislike about the phone.

Here are the official stock LG E960 (Nexus 4) ROMs for each carrier.

Since the phone isn't actually released to the public yet until the 13th, I have no way of knowing if these are in beta still, or not.

I will modify this more as time goes on, and try to keep up-to-date with any and all releases/leaks/etc.. for all of you.

These files are in TOT format, and are loaded just like a regular BIN file through Emergency Mode via LGNPST.

You will be required to have all of the proper

Generic Components and Models

installed for this, as well.

I will try to provide links for everything that is required, after I upload the firmwares.

Until the phone gets released to the public, please don't ask me questions such as: "Is this rootable?" "Is this 4.2.x?" "Is this unlocked?" or "Will you father my children?"

Well, I'll still archive any and all firmware that is released here, regardless of the other thread, and post any leaks that LG is testing, along with other tools.

LGNPST is protected so it cannot be openly posted. to get into "Download Mode"

power off phone. while your usb is plugged into your phone hold both volume up

and volume down and power. that's how I've done it everything on my OG.

Strange. When my N4 if power off, and I plug it into my PC, then hold volume up and down, and press and hold power, it takes me to the bootloader, not download mode. Any thoughts?

And is download mode the same thing as "emergency mode"?
