[Galaxy Note II Accessories] aquaholik:
My only concern is the power button and volume on the S3. I don't know if the two arms will cover those buttons. It does not with the Note 2. Give me a height from the bottom of the phone to the power and volume button. Power is on right and volume is on left on the S3?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] petzku:
The volume-down on the left is about 3 inches and the power-button on the right is about 3,6 inches from the bottom.. I understand that the bottom arms are adjustable?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] aquaholik:
You are OK on the power but sounds like the volume is a little low at 3 inches. I just measured my Note 2 and volume and power is 3.75 from bottom.

Yes the bottom arms are adjustable.

I remembered reading a review on Amazon and that the volume on the S3 is covered by the side arm.

I just went to my car and measured it. The left arm will definitely cover your volume button if it is 3-3.5 inches from the bottom.

Here is the amazon review:

" Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: iOttie One-Touch windshield and dashboard car mount for Galaxy Note 2 (Wireless Phone Accessory)

I got this because it specifically mentioned compatibility with my new Galaxy S3. I would love to be able to keep it but the side bars are directly over the power and volume toggles so every time I put the phone it it turns my audio all the down. I will be returning it and can't recommend it for anyone who has a Galaxy S3

UPDATE: I received a call from iOttie the same day I placed my original one star review. I discussed my issue with the design and the product being sold for the S3. They not only sent me a new mount which worked with my phone they took the Galaxy S3 off the product description. I can only hope that a company as responsive and capable as this experiences tremendous success. My ne mount works great. It is well constructed, well designed and sticks to my dashboard like it is welded to it. "

So no, this will not double up as the perfect car mount for the Note 2 and S3. Smaller one works with S3 but not Note 2.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Soundchasr:
I have a stock 8.9 that's pretty slow. It even freezes sometimes. Is there anything I can do to speed it up?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] superiscch:
Look to install ICS or Jb. Works like a charm :D
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Soundchasr:
Ok. Can you point me to some thorough instructions? A lot of the instructions I see leave parts out or assume some prior knowledge.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] superiscch:
Check the development section. Im working on CM10 now (the 31-10 build), which has JB. No problems. I just wanna say, read before you do, just to close out some problems.

Maybe its easier if you ask your problems and someone can answer :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Soundchasr:
I so depend on my tablet that I don't want to try it without knowing what I'm doing. If I run into problems and can't use it I'll be screwed.

I have an i957 so the steps are a little different I think. Is that what you have?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] superiscch:
Hmm, i just followed the steps in the CM10 and its working. I have a p7310 model...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] jd1639:
The steps are the same. I have an i957 and am running the cm 10 from nrvate. Just make sure you have a Rom specifically for the i957. Very happy with the Rom. You can find it in the i957 development section.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Soundchasr:
I must be dense. I don't see the steps!

This is all I see:

Use TWRP, factory reset and wipe /system if you are coming from another ROM. Don't forget to install google apps http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.ph...on/Google_Apps

And that doesn't tell me enough.....
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] jd1639:
Start by looking for instructions on how to install a recovery and root your device. CWM and TWRP are two recoveries, you'll use one of the two. These are flashed through Odin. Once you have a recovery installed then you can flash a rom through it. Make sure the Rom is specific for your device. Not any Rom will work and the wrong one will brick it. These are basic instructions and are only meant to show you what to look for on the forums. The forums have "stickies" where a lot of this basic information can be found.

The galaxy sII General forum had some good stickies that can help. Read and 're-read them until you'll comfortable.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Soundchasr:
Oh boy. I think I did it. I flashed TWRP through ODIN. With CM10 from nrvate do I just point TWRP to the file and that's it?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] jd1639:
Wipe system, cache and dalvik cache. Then point twrp (install) to the rom. Then install the gapps and then reboot.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Soundchasr:
What about Google Apps? Where do I get that?

When I wipe does that remove all of my apps and info??!?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] jd1639:
No it doesn't remove your apps, but I'd back those up first just in case. The gapps package should be found where you found the Rom.

Ps factory reset will delete your apps.

---------- Post added at 01:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 PM ----------

I see the link to gapps isn't working on nrvate s open. Google latest gapps. It's a file that ends something like 1011
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Soundchasr:
Ugh. I just flashed and rebooted from TWRP. I get the Samsung screen and then a black screen and then nothing......

Just posted to to CM10 thread. Hopefully, it's an easy fix.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] jd1639:
Give it sometime and then try re booting. If you can still get to twrp you can restore, you did a nandriod back up,right?

If that doesn't work you may be soft bricked. If so go to sammobile.com and down load the stock Rom and flash it through Odin. Hopefully you don't need that but it'll bring you back to where you started. But I hope you backed everything up. Because your tab will be like New again.:mad:
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Soundchasr:
I tried rebooting again and now I can get to the Cyanogenmod splash screen. It just sits there though....
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] jd1639:
That's a good sign, your not soft bricked. What version of twrp are you using? I'd try going back into twrp and wiping the cache and dalvik and then under advanced, fix the permissions and then reboot.

---------- Post added at 02:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:56 PM ----------

If that doesn't work then you'll have to do a clean install which means a factory reset. Back everything up first though with something like titanium backup pro.

Then do the factory reset, the wipes and install the Rom and gapps. After booting you'll have to resetup your Gmail account and then install titanium backup again Then you can restore your apps and data.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Soundchasr:
Dang. That didn't work. I'm using TWRP 2.1.4.

Ok, I'll restore, then back up with Titanium and do what you said.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] jd1639:
I know you can get this running on your i957 because I did. But I went through what your going through too. I'm using twrp 2.3.1.1. If you Google twrp i957 you see a goo.im download, get the .tar file. It will install over your twrp version thru Odin.

But I'm pretty sure the factory install will do the trick.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Soundchasr:
Woohoo!!!! I'm up and running!! Thank you so much!!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] jd1639:
You're welcome, that's great news.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aregvan:
I want to get an extended battery for my Atrix since the original 1880mah dies within the day, and drops percentages during reboots, which can be calibrated, I believe.

But my question is those 2500mah or even 2800mah batteries, the ones that come with the thicker battery covers, really thick?

Does anybody have any of these mind uploading a photo of your phone, and how much does it extended, is it worth it?

If I were to get an extended thicker battery, would I be able to buy a case for the phone then?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciloteille:
Look at my review http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1280390

Secondly if its extended, count on the back being bigger. Most cases wont work. Silicon cases might, depends on how thick the back is.

I heard the gs3 had a bug when lightflow was enabled that it was also causing talkback to answer "FOLDER OPEN!!!!" and then "FOLDER CLOSED!!!".

This is extremely annoying but I love lightflow to much to uninstall it. Is anyone else having this problem and is there a solution? I read this was an ics bug but I never had any problem with my nexus.

You'll find details about the issue here as after 6 months of trying different avenues, it seems Samsung may be listening. I got in touch with a few developers who also face the same issue and we all posted to the samsung developers forums. See here: http://developer.samsung.com/forum/...=GeneralB&messageId=204387&messageNumber=2156

As for airview you can just switch it back on after switching on accessibility. It's just another Samsung bug in this area.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Philx123:
I got a KFHD and the second time I turned it on, it told me it was updating. I assume it was an automatic update.

Since getting it, I've side loaded a lot of apps which Amazon obviously feel I am not either worthy, competent or free thinking enough to use.

I find the KFHD is a decent tablet now, despite, rather than because of, Amazon's mania for control (and, I assume, the dollar signs behind its eyes), The thing which worries me, though, is that Amazon will close the door on sideloading, and release an update which stops the sideloaded aps working.

Is there a way of turning off auto updating (if it indeed auto updates)? Or is there a way of copying the operating system I have now, and replacing any future update?

Thanks
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] storino03:
Yes, the KFHD does indeed auto-update the firmware. You can possibly try airplane mode when you're not using it, but sort of defeats the purpose of having it connected to wifi.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Philx123:
Hmmm, why do I have a feeling that somewhere deep in the Amazon control bunker someone, somewhere is working to lock out every app I've sideloaded?

Though knowing Amazon, they'll probably offer the option of a one off payment to open them up again.

Why do they not see that open equals greater usage, and as such, more sales?

I think we all can agree just how powerful the Note II is :good:

[YOUTUBE]vI-Rbm-m5Kk[/YOUTUBE]

In the video he has trouble with having a bluetooth mouse and keyboard attached where he clicks on something with the mouse and the virtual keyboard pops up (even though a bluetooth keyboard is already connected and it shouldn't do this) then has to right click to get rid of it.

Instead of dealing with the bluetooth mouse / keyboard double click annoyance I am simply going to get the following:

http://www.slashgear.com/samsung-galaxy-note-ii-smart-dock-turns-phablet-into-desktop-31255000/

With this dock I can take a Note 2 with me all day as a computing device when I am out of the house. Then when I get home, I can simply dock my Note II and work on it with a large monitor

with usb mouse and usb keyboard plus an external hard drive!

Finally I will be PC free and only need one device for all my computing needs :victory:

The only issue I could see the phone will be sitting in portrait mode... but I would simply lock the orientation into landscape mode while having it docked so that I get a fullscreen view on my monitor via hdmi.

Anyone else thinking of doing this same thing?

but will it run crysis?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZedZardoz:
I'm waiting to get that dock, still no stock. I wonder if my 50% off code will work once there is stock?

I would use a BT mouse and keyboard, but it you have the USB port on the dock, you could use wired.

On my HP Touchpad OTG, I can use my Logitech wireless mouse/keyboard combo (uses a USB wireless adapter) which is more responsive than my BT setup. OTG on the HP is a bit sloppy with the external power requirement and it doesn't charge while watching media on the USB HDD. The Logitech wireless mouse/keyboard combo works great for me and I plan to use the same on the Note2.

The key for me in the use of the dock are:

1) Full charging capability while in use. - USB Charging

2) Connections for external USB drives for media, backup etc. - USB OTG

3) Ability to use full wireless keyboard and mouse. - USB OTG

4) Sound output to amp. - USB Audio

5) HDMI output to large display / TV - USB HDMI

As you can see the dock offers the 4 USB features all in one. The only negative, is as you state, no landscape on the dock. It seems silly to turn the thing on its side attached in the dock. The use of lock landscape would force the use of an external monitor, which I may not have all the time.

Really interested to see how well this setup works with the dock. Hopefully it works in landscape mode, and maybe even at a higher resolution. 95% of what I do on my desktop could be done on a phone with a setup like this, so this is realyl appealing. :D

Controlling the Note with keyboard/mouse

I got my docking station today! :good: It's pretty cool navigating around with a mouse and typing on a real keyboard!

So, does anyone know the details of what we've got here? I mean, I've determined a few things:

Mouse

right-mouse click = back button.

click = tap

click and drag = swype. So you can get your status bar by click on the top and dragging down.

Scroll will switch between desktop pages, or scroll up/down on a web page, etc.

Keyboard

Arrow keys allow navigating through your desktop icons and switching between desktop pages.

Enter opens the selected application.

Enter from with a text editor inserts a newline.

CTRL-Enter will send a test message

Page Up/Down will scroll in some applications

Ctrl-Alt-Delete reboots the phone! (oops!)

Escape = back button

Typing on the desktop initiates a search

Alt-Tab shows recent apps

Anything else?? I wish there were a way to hit the "settings" button using keyboard/mouse.. Hmm..:confused:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] con_ritmo:
my biggest problem with using the note as a computer replacement...the hdmi out does NOT mirror the screen in its entirety. for example in media apps like YouTube/hulu/etc only the video is shown on an external monitor. the playback/input/scroll bars and pause button etc is not shown on screen. so if you want to ff or rewind you have to do it on the phone itself.

searching the forums it appears to be a common android issue...although in those cases it is the lack of visible subtitles on the external monitor...that people are complaining about.

if anybody knows of a concrete fix please let me know
