[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bodoct:
i downloaded https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwyLDEsImFpcmJvcm5lLmNmaGFsbG93ZWVuIl0. from the playstore and i was wondering how i would access the folder to see its content. i like the blood effect that happens when a notification comes in but im not crazy about the rest of the live wallpaper. Is it possible to to take that effect and apply this to my own custom wallpaper?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bodoct:
Still can't figure this out :x
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bodoct:
Anyone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cwhitney24:
If I'm understanding you correctly you want to open the apk you downloaded from the play store.

Use a root file app like root explorer and go to system/apps. Find the apk and copy it to your sd card. Then transfer it to your computer and use apktool to decompile the apk.

That's one way to do it. There are others but that's one to get you started.

Edit. .. Now I would email the dev of that app to ask permission to use a part of his app to create your own.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bodoct:
Thanks I'll try it.

Not going to use the dev theme to make another theme for sale or to put on the app store just personal use.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Zorachus:
Would like opinions, on anyone here that went from the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, to the Note II ? I am looking to switch soon, maybe the Nexus 4, or try something fresh like the Note II.

How was adjusting to the larger size of the Note II, over the Nexus ? Screen technology noticeably better, or just slightly ? Battery life, I assume is better on the Note II vs Nexus ?

Are you overall happy with the Note II, or want a Nexus phone again instead ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stevessvt:
I went from the GN to the S3 to now the Note 2. Even with the extended battery the GN had an on screen time of maybe 2.5-3 hours. The S3 was about 4 hours or so screen time. The Note 2 gets 6-8 hours on screen time. It's amazing the battery life. This is with wifi being used 75% of the time. I had no problem graduating from 4.65" to 4.8" to 5.5". Love the screen. Both the GN and the S3 are pen tile display and the Note 2 is not. It is noticeably better and more vibrant. Go to TMo and wrap your hands around one. You'll leave the store with it and a smile on your face.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] awrnsmn:
I did the same. ...gnex to sgs3 to note 2. Best phone I ever owned is by far the Note 2! I do not regret my choice at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jdiddy_ub:
i upgraded from my nexus to the note about a week ago...had to get used to the size of the screen but i did...now every other phone looks small and colors look dull...i held my nexus in my hand after not touching it for a couple of days...the phone felt heavy and screen seems so tiny lol

the battery life is definitely better than the nexus and it is definitely noticeable...i must also say, i missed having an SD card slot soooo much...i am using a 16 gb card but am planning on getting a 64 gb so that space will never be an issue...with my nexus i had to constantly monitor what i kept on my phone...it sucked..if you are planning on rooting the note 2 you MUST get a decent sized SD card...some roms run up to about 1 gb and a nandroid backup can range anywhere from 2 gb to 4 gb (depending on apps)

one thing you are going to miss leaving the nexus is development...nexus will always get fast updates and have a ton of roms to choose from

the ONLY thing that i have to really get used to is carrying around such a large device..even if you get used to it, carrying such a large device over a traditional sized phone is always gonna feel different
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] boodies:
OG SGS to NOTE 2. Imagine the shock in size and performance lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdt73:
Just in a different order, I went from the S3 to the Galaxy Nexus, to the Note 2. While I enjoyed the customizations I found on the Nexus, I don't think I need them anymore. I took about 4-5 hours and set up Go Launcher just right (borrowing a lot from Coldfustion's video on youtube) and now I can't even recognize touchwiz. There's not a single thing I miss, tbh.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jack_d12:
I came from the nexus ... screen is alot bigger.

I also miss the some of the camera effects.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarthPiggie:
I came from the nexus too, and sometimes I find myself missing that phone . Having the option of AOSP is always nice. I really like the Holo theme over the TouchWiz theme. I don't like the colors in TouchWiz that much.

The size takes some getting used to, but once you do it's hard to get back.

What I miss the most though is the bevy of Rom choices, even though I exclusively AOKP.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Warrior1975:
I'm definitely itching for a new phone. Have the GS3 but considering Note 2 or Nexus 4. Leaning towards Note right now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdt73:
There is no comparison really. throwing a 64gb microsd card into this phone ensured this phone as cream of the crop in my book. And then I charged the phone a day and a half later, and forgot about any of the other new phones.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arrio:
I came from iPhone 4 > Nexus S > Galaxy SII > Galaxy Nexus > a still shipping note II.

Every upgrade has been a happy one, and I really can't wait to get the note II and become a part of this awesome note II community :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] wbonney4:
I came from the GN as well its a great phone but once you get used to the size the Note 2 is on a whole new level. Its pretty amazing I was pretty skeptical at first but I dont put the thing down. Luckily the battery life...well I don't even really think about the battery because it last forever.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] royale192:
Came from Galaxy Nexus (unlocked)

I came from A Nexus Like so many, But dont miss it that much. I thought with not having the latest update I would be worried its not that bad. The size for me is alot better due to having larger hands. Think about the note 2 commerical with the basketball player. Anyway I have not looked back. I even thought about the Nexus 4 but I just love the size of the note 2 . I would recommend finding a case first before buy the phone. It is VERY slippery And you may drop it before leaving the store. Happen to Me and 2 other people. Just my 2 cents. :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] seamonkey420:
why i went to the note 2...

I went from a Google Play Store Galaxy Nexus to my T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2.

1. Size: the first few days the phone feels crazy big but after you start using it; it starts feeling like a normal phone. def not an easy one handed usable phone but thats ok with me. I notice that any 4.3" phone feels "super tiny".. my co-workers are prob sick of me saying "man, your phone's tiny!".

2. Screen looks just as good if not better than the Gnex imo. then again, i'm not screen expert or that picky. touchscreen responsiveness is excellent.

3. battery life for me is crazy awesome. i get about 20-22hrs on a charge w/these type of settings and apps running:

activesync work email w/PUSH email

gmail

facebook - sync every 3 hours

twitter - sync every 4 hours

google reader - sync every 6 hours

dropbox - autoupload photos on wifi/cell data

yahoo weather widget - update every hour

display timeout after 2mins

auto brightness

auto sync for google apps

GPS, Wifi, BT all one but not always connected to devices.

4. I LOVE MY NOTE 2! would never go back. i've been the type that usually had a android phone and a tablet.. now.. i just have my Note 2 and am very satisified w/the form factor. the S-Pen was a huge factor in my purchase too. i wanted to try replacing my outdated post-it notes w/a digital solution. i had tried to do this previously w/my Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet but it was too big, too slow and just horrible software.

Hope that helps! :highfive:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dom085:
I recently did a clean install (full wipe) from CM10 late October release to the stable CM10 that was just released using the latest TWRP (2.3.1) and apps reinstalled with Titanium.

Everything seems to be working, but Google Now has a card that says "Location Services is turned off..." However, all my location services are enabled in the settings menu.

Is anyone else having this issue? Is there any available solution?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AnonSVN:
I have this issue as well. Not just CM10, but ParanoidAndroid has it as well.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dom085:
Fixed it!

Updated gapps through the goomanager app and all is right with the world again!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Joker of Jesters:
Google now works fine, except for the fact i have to yell for it to understand me. Also when i activate it and it makes that bloop sound its static sounding.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Are you on aosp? Try speaking in a normal tone using the top microphone. As for the notification sound being distorted, its just really loud for some reason. In viperrom (sense based) you can lower the notification volume a bit and distortion goes away. You should be able to independently adjust notification volume for different notifications. I haven't found an equivalent fix in aosp roms yet but its basically the same issue
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Joker of Jesters:
I'm on cm 10 if i googled right then yes aosp. Viperrom was my previous rom if that tells you anything. And talking into the top mic worked.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Look around the play store and see if you can find an app that has a seperate adjustment for notification volume and use it to tone down google now and the distortion should go away, you should still be able to use global volumes to keep notifications loud. Wish it was baked in like viper rom

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjlallana:
Hi guys!

I am currently on Ubuntu 10.04, using Java "1.6.0_21" so I can properly compile Android roms and apps without major bugs or issues.

The thing is that I need to use Java 1.7 for other projects apart from Android, and I don't know if I can install it and still keep the 1.6 version so I don't get those incompatibilities with Android.

Does anyone know about this? I'll appreciate any help.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Twistedchild420:
I had been looking around for a while.....tried a couple of different cases. And then i saw a couple of pieces that caught my eye. And i then thought to myself...."What if i combined them?" So i did just that! Had always liked the idea of a two toned phone. Here are links to the 2 items on Ebay...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/251175458354?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Took about 2 1/2 weeks to get them......andddddd.....here are the results! Pics taken with my wife's LG Nitro HD and a old Sanyo digital cam

Just thought i would share this bit of randomness......i really like it! And the bumper case does not affect signal quality at all. :good:

Looks nice, I'm still considering a back plate like that. Let me know when you get a phone as cute as you pls. Then I will really be interested

I just ordered one of those carbon battery covers too, waiting for it to arrive

do you know if you can transfer the NFC from your old back onto this one?

does it leave in residue on the back cover?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mdt73:
Does the bumper not fit flush with the screen? In the first pic it looks to be raised a tad.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] f2000sa:
Nice mode. I am thinking to cut a TPU case into a bumper case to protect the side, and use it with the official flip case.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Twistedchild420:
Looks fine now....don't know what was up with that pic...lol

The link will show you three different ways to upgrade. Short answer is yes you can upgrade through cwm and keep root and cwm recovery. Read the first two posts in the link over and over until you know exactly what you are doing.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] BadFish79:
First I would like to say that I just picked up this phone last night after some great years with the og evo 4g. I am loving this phone so far. However I am having one issue that is bugging me. I've searched through the settings many times and can't find anything related to it.

When I receive a SMS that is over 160 characters, they come in our of order. My girlfriend sent me a few today that were 3 to 5 messages long. The first one came in first but then I got the third then second and so on. I had to figure out the correct order. Is there a setting I'm missing to set this straight? I've tried turning the re-assemble option on and off as well. That didn't seem to work.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Barshalen:
Is not your phone. This happened with me as well when texting mainly my ex, had been for over a year. Does she have Verizon by chance?

I get that from google voice as well. The internets are random by design....

She is on Verizon. Funny as it worked fine on my evo when she sent me long texts. So there is no setting I'm overlooking? What does the reassemble messages option do? I see no difference on or off

Hello,

I am a new android user and made a switch from apple to get the Note II. I wanted to know if there was a way to turn off the 4G LTE and just switch over to regular 3G? The reason I am asking this is because none of the areas where I live have 4G service and we just recently got 3G service with at&t earlier this year.

So if anyone could help me out with this, I would really appreciate it.
