[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Evo:
1) I could be totally wrong, as it's been about a month since I last held the original Note, but I could have sworn I distinctly remember this feature in the original Note. I remember remarking to myself how convenient it was, but I never used it because I had a third party app that did the same thing.

2) Smart Stay was a feature I was really looking forward to from the S III. I can't tell you how many times I've been reading a long article online or something else, and the screen dimmed or turned off because it had no clue I was still actively using the phone. Smart Stay has effectively eliminated this, and it has worked really well for me.

3) This feature I have only heard about ONCE, and that was while watching a YouTube video someone had done on the Note II. I was very impressed and it's another feature I have longed for. I've tried it out and it works flawlessly.

I'd also go on to add there are many more features I find convenient. Quick Glance is a convenient little gem that I've heard no one mention in the dozens of reviews I've seen about the Note II. I found it by just going through every part of my phones' settings. When your screen is off, quick glance will cut on your screen for a couple of seconds, and display a large clock with the date, email count, text count, and missed calls count. This is activated by hovering your hand, briefly, over the phones light sensor. It comes in extremely hand during the night when I want to quickly roll over, check the time, and roll back over to sleep. No more trying to find the phone ... finding the button to turn the screen on ... then turning the screen off again. Everything is hands-free. A beautiful little aurora borealis-type animation happens in the background while quick glance is active. The majority of the screen stays black so it's not bothersome.

Another favorite feature of mine is Direct Call. It essentially calls whatever contact whose information is currently being displayed on your screen from your contacts list. So instead of having to pull up, John Doe in your contact ... then select what number of his you want to dial (assuming he has multiple numbers) ... then pushing the "call" button to execute the call... all you have to do is have John Doe's contact info pulled up and put the phone to your face as if you were about to talk on a call, and Direct Call will automatically dial the first number assigned to that contact or whatever the default number is. I've found this feature GREATLY appreciated.

I'm so happy with my new toy. So many cool features that are actually beneficial.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gary02468:
Ok, sure. All three features can be found just by browsing through the phone's settings (or the User Manual). Blocking Mode is listed under the device's top-level Settings; the screen-stay face-detection is under the device's Settings|Display; and the camera's viewfinder screen explains the voice-command feature when that feature is enabled (which I think it was by default; it can be toggled in the camera's top-level Settings).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gary02468:
Could well be. My previous phone was an Infuse, not a Note 1. So the feature was new to me, if not to the world. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scythe024:
3) i did not know this... found it and tested it out. pretty cool
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] h8heat:
Same here. I did not know this feature on the camera. Nice!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] daveschz:
Hmm I wasn't aware Blocking mode could be used like this.

I'm guessing I would set it to "Disable Incoming Calls" "Always" "Allowed contacts > All contacts".

Does that sound right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gary02468:
Exactly.

Unrecognized callers can still leave you voice mails. If you use Google Voice for voice mail, then you can spam-filter those; and even for messages that don't get filtered, you only have to glance at the transcriptions for a second, instead of taking time to listen to the messages, if you want to see if any are legit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gary02468:
I like that feature too, except that there's a five-second delay before the screen responds to the gesture, which makes it quicker just to press the power button.

Do you get that delay as well?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] quarlow:
Yeah, this is a great idea for a feature. But, I have some reservations. First - battery life, you can tell the prox sensor is on, and lights up red when the screen is off. Second - speed, I find it faster when the device is flat to just press the home key, all the same info is on the lock screen, and it wakes and goes back to sleep faster if anything.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] wtharp2:
Direct Dial

Actually, you can specify which number is the default dialed by this feature:

Touch and hold the phone number you want set to default. After a second or so delay, a menu appears, and "set default" is the last item in that menu.
[Nexus S General] Gambler_3:
How on earth can I make a "calls only" profile on my phone? I have tried half a dozen apps and its laughable how such an open phone is unable to achieve what should be a basic feature.

As you would know google merged the notification and ringtone volume as one in ICS which is the most dumb **** move google could have made. Now most of the profile apps on the playstore can do nothing about this.

I tried profile scheduler and it can only handle the sms app notification volume. I tried elixir 2 and even though it says that it can unlink notification and ring volume but it does not work for me. Then I finally found an app that actually managed to do it! But guess what? It has a horrible bug of randomly deactivating my data connection and I have to restart my phone. I really dont know what its doing to cause that.

Now I could just manually set the notification tone to silent but actually that doesnt work either since many apps and services have their own notification tone settings which cannot be overrided by the system setting.

So does ANYONE have a workable solution for me? My phone is rooted but I aint installing a custom rom just for this. Samsung touchwiz phones still have separate volumes guess samsung wasnt as stupid as google. :o

I dont think I'll be buying a nexus phone next if I cant find a solution to this soon. Really sad such a petty issue has to ruin it.
[Nexus S General] tweeny80:
Hmm you're out of luck if the apps don't cut it for you. If you're rooted then flash a ROM....you are missing out on truly useful features not present on stock. If you're not into flashing on principle, get over it :) if you don't flash due to uncertainty then read up on it, super simple.

Some top ROMS are Slim Bean, Rascarlo, plus many others.

Good luck
[Nexus S General] polobunny:
Have you tried this?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=Orion.Soft

Custom roms got you covered though, don't know of any without unlinked volumes.
[Nexus S General] smoka206:
Why not flash a custom rom, you have a nexus, I don't think it gets any easier to flash a rom on phone. People make these roms and make features that don't and won't exist on a stock rom.
[Nexus S General] anshumandash:
I am using baked black bean 6. It has the option to unlink call and notification volumes. Also it supports profiles. I think it's worth trying a custom ROM when you need additional features.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S General] Gambler_3:
Yes thats actually the one that worked but had the data connection bug. I have emailed the dev and he has no idea why that would happen.

On the nexus S I will install custom rom if I am unable to find a decent solution. However I dont know if I'll want to buy the nexus 4 knowing that I would need custom rom for basic functionality so I am gonna try to make this work out without custom rom.
[Nexus S General] chevlar:
I agree this is dumbest thing Google has done in Android recently. On gingerbread, i had always rocked stock rooted, or something close like pete's bugless beast. On a fundamental level they need to change this, but I think that it's probably motivated from their desire to unify the tablet and phone platforms.

I'm on CM10 now, and have been since ics linked the volumes. It irritates me to no end that every month or so, my phone slows to a crawl and i have to do a full wipe and re-flash. Never had to do this on stock gb. But that's a whole different issue.
[Nexus S General] belh4wk:
yup, android is very flexible in regards to flashing

you truly are missing out on a lot of other features. and you necessarily have to give up a lot of space/speed for it, some roms are dedicated to keeping things as much stock as possible, just because of that, they mostly contain the "stock" rom with exactly those features you want and in other cases you can just go with a rooted/deodexed rom and flash just those mods that you need. in most cases, the latter has almost no effect on performance
[Nexus S General] towelboy:
Why don't you go flash a custom rom? Sorry but Google has millions of customers and it can't please everyone. There's a very fast way to fix all of this, and that is just simply flashing a custom rom. These roms are very stable and nothing is going to happen. Since you're already rooted why don't you give it a shot and then come back here and complain if it doesn't work?

any news?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bwyan Benton:
I agree. CM9 is better than any JB rom. All the JB roms have annoying little bugs for me. Especially choppy video. Drives me nuts. CM9 is damn near flawless...especially with devil kernel. JB to me is useless....the tiny very tiny extra speed isn't worth the negatives it brings.

Its ridiculous that something like CM9 stopped receiving updates on a device like this.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tdnarbedlih:
I installed the 11-12-12 vivow version of aeroevan's CM10 mod, along with the jelly bean gapps and the ICSv15 kernel.

I have a problem where I can't change the keyboard on the rom. I'm trying to use SwiftKey but every time I try to go to the settings menu to activate the keyboard, either through the apps or through the menus themselves, the settings app crashes.

Could anybody help me with this problem? I would have posted in the main thread for it but I can't post on development boards apparently.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
does it look like this? Make sure default it set to swiftkey. I had the same problem.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tdnarbedlih:
I don't know why, but I don't see any attached thumbnail, even though there is a box that I assume should be showing it. It's just an empty box titled 'Attached Thumbnail'

Edit: I don't know why, but I can see the picture on the xda app, but not on my computer.

Anyway, the problem is that settings crashes as I try to get to that menu, I can't even see the list of keyboards.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ultrasagol:
Hello guys.

I'm having a few problems with my atrix, for start, there are certain unfunctional spots in the touchscreen that make the phone really hard to work with. Also, my phone dropped and since that drop the earpiece speaker stopped working, so when I'm taking calls I'm forced to use the main speaker which is totally annoying and completely impssible twhen im taking calls outdoors.

I found these on eBay-

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Replacement...910?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item416e75720e

are these the correct replacement parts I need in-order to fix my atrix issues?

EDIT: Also forgot to mention the black "sticker" covering Power button pilled off a little bit on the right edge and apparently the sensor turned unfunctional and does not read my fingerprint, I looked this up on the net and apparently im not the only one having this sticker pilled off but I still didnt manage to find a replacement "sticker" over the web.

Help!! I'm so frustrated so I'd love to have your comments&opinions...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Venomad:
What would be your ultimate rom. What kind of features would you have?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Venomad:
For me it would be full customization. Be able to choose boot animations, icons, customize contacts, be able to size my wallpaper to fit the way I want. Choose what features I want and don't want with a tap instead of flashing mods.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JLine05:
RUJELUS22's rom for the Epic 4G Touch with all of the mods on Aroma installer as well as the rom updater. :good:

[HTC Droid DNA] mrancier:
I don't think it was ever on the list. The accounts I've read are of people selecting the "other supported devices" option.

I'll likely cancel my pre-order too. This makes me sad, I was so exited about this device.

I figured this would happen sooner than later which is why I was going to pick one up tomorrow morning, but the night before is BS.
[HTC Droid DNA] MrSimpson:
This is like the Rezound all over again. By the time S-Off was possible, I had lost interest and never bought one. I guess I'll keep my GNex a while longer. As much as I want this phone tomorrow, I'll likely never buy it or any other HTC phone.......unless the dev's pop out in the next week or two with an unlock for the bootloader and S-Off, then I'll reconsider. I just wonder if VZW or HTC have a way of quantifying lost revenues due to locking the phones down.

Less than .001%, don't over think it. Phone hacking is a tiny community against the rest of of the world.

[HTC Droid DNA] NorthlandAZ:
That's why I don't say any thing about HTCDev website. Once Verizon hears a device can be unlocked, its game over.
[HTC Droid DNA] tdetroit:
Pardon my complete ignorance. I've only had one HTC device before (Spouses TBolt), but I rooted it when I first got it and rooting instructions went live on XDA. What's the likelihood of rooting the DNA without having the HTCDev site unlocking it. Again, sorry if this is an elementary question.....

I am getting this phone tomorrow and give my S3 to the spouse, but I remember the wait before that phone was rooted, and it was agonizing. A Perm Root method came out literally on the 14th day, my last day to return it, so I got lucky. Do you think this will stunt development for this phone? I love using different, power-sipping kernels on to my devices.....
[HTC Droid DNA] symyn:
You do realize that a quality ROM will probably not be out for weeks. Not quite sure what you are looking to do the very first day with your bootloader / root. I am willing to wait a couple of weeks as I am sure the devs will figure it out.
[HTC Droid DNA] Ronn Plae:
I'm am so pissed, but this kind of thing happens every year when I upgrade. I'm still getting mine tomorrow, and just praying S-Off won't take as long to achieve like it did for the Rezound. Fingers Crossed :)
[HTC Droid DNA] bsweetness:
Is anyone actually surprised by this? By most accounts, this was entirely expected given what has happened with some previous Verizon HTC devices. Like the Incredible 4G, which could be unlocked via the site before it was officially released, but once the release date actually rolled around, it no longer worked.
[HTC Droid DNA] nrfitchett4:
I prefer to have root just for wifi tether and titanium backup. Just so much easier to restore apps with it then to try and use each app's backup/restore process.

I'm not looking until Feb anyways, but definitely disappointing.
[HTC Droid DNA] inseconds99:
This seems like a deal breaker to me. I was all hyped up about this but not so much anymore.
[HTC Droid DNA] the_passenger:
From what I've heard, HTC phones with no expandable storage don't have S-off yet. So no HTCDev and no S-off => no fun.
[HTC Droid DNA] Ndaoud360:
What about the thunderbolt? There was no bootloader unlocking and unlocked by devs day 1 of release. So we might be able with DNA.
[HTC Droid DNA] Cadillac Johnson:
That was before carriers had HTC by the balls and they actually had some power. All these carrier exclusive phones aren't helping HTC and they know it.

Until they stand up to VZ and ATT they're gonna do whatever they ask to stay afloat. Sad really..
[HTC Droid DNA] Benny879:
Actually the T-Bolt was locked tight until someone leaked the engineering boot loader. Hopefully same thing will happen with the DNA.
[HTC Droid DNA] BarryH_GEG:
You have a one in three chance. The One X and One S haven't been able to achieve S-OFF and in the One X's case there are some

really

talented devs that have given it their all since March when the phone was released. The EVO 4G devs achieved S-OFF and their work applies to the One XL too since their the same phone(ish).
[HTC Droid DNA] Old MuckenMire:
This is my hope as well. Someone at Samsung became a hero for his or her Verizon S3 bootloader leak and I have to believe someone at HTC will save the day for us.

[HTC Droid DNA] two_cents:
It used to be necessary to have s-off and root but if they just stopped bloating the software with garbage I wouldn't need it... The battery and kernel are doing very well for me so that's not add big an issue as it was with my thunderbolt and gnex

Unfortunately both of those methods require an SD card. Given that the Droid DNA doesn't have one, those methods wouldn't work.

Side rant: I detest Verizon so much for locking this thing down.

The DEVS on here already have another way, and are testing it. Relax, enjoy the phone, dont do anything stupid.

:) Thanks for talking me off the ledge. I'm running SPB Shell 3D in tablet mode at the moment - it's the only way I can shrink this damn UI down until I can get root (DPI changed) applied. With the stock UI, I feel like I'm using a phone built for an 80 year old with glaucoma. You know - something like http://images1.vat19.com/jumbo-remote-control/jumbo-remote-control-universal.jpg.

Couldn't agree more. Except it isn't just Verizon. All the carriers do it. The problem is that carriers are allowed this much control in the first place.
[HTC Droid DNA] scotty1223:
Disassembling the phone has nothing to do the way the current exploit is using a removable sd card

The supercid trick does NOT need a removable sd card. It just requires a temp root exploit,and the memory block where the cid is stored to not be write protected. ;)

I seriously cant wait for this root to happen. I'd really hate to return this phone if we couldnt find a solution.

[HTC Droid DNA] zerocool79346:
Touche, but it would greatly surprise me. They allowed HTC to unlock the Inc4G LTE but only after it had basically become obsolete and other than that, they haven't allowed one single unlocked device on their network. Maybe Google could talk them into allowing the Nexus as a "developer edition" or whatever con name Verizon wants to give it, sold only through the Play Store.
[HTC Droid DNA] Cephalus:
Pardon my naivety (I've yet to receive my DNA and have never thus far had an OTG-capable 'phone), but... If the operating system natively accesses OTG storage devices, wouldn't it be possible to substitute one for the non-existent SD card?

That's assuming of course that the lack of SD card slot is the one major hurdle to coming up with a robust solution.
