Fix for the short-screen flash (CRT off animation bug) hasn't yet been integrated into the latest nightly? (i.e 20130216) Can I flash the Kernel posted few pages back to solve that? Will that Kernel work fine on this latest nightly? :confused:
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] katsooba:
Dont you keep atleast one old nightly copy on your phone? Just flash the old copy

If not, download a new copy to pc and push it via adb.

Hanging on CM boot screen

I am currently running CM10.1 nightly 20130212. Couldn't update to 20130213, since modem didn't work.

Updating to 20130214 and later results in hanging device on CM boot animation (well, it does not hang literally, but boot screen never goes away - keys lighten up when touched). Reverting to 20130212 via CWM works and device is back to normal operation.

Any ideas?

i am suffering from a strange problme...dunno whether its rom or kernel related

i am on odexed xxlsj using philz kernel

whenever i reboot my phone after flashing something from cwm, by battery percentage goes down by about 20%

it happens only once in one charge cycle

if my charge was at 54% before flashing the file,after rebooting it goes down to about 30-35%

y is this happening???any help pl

tried to search,but couldnt get satisfactory answer

also ENTROPY,elite recognized dev , said that resetting battery stats is useless in our beloved s2 i9100
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chairmansaab:
Thats a common issue.

If your rom support Siyah kernal ( most probably it will) then flash it & install extweak from Play store.

And then reset Battery Chip and put your phone to sleep it will go back to normal.

Btw don't worry that 20% will give you same time uptime as 54%
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Donnie Sins:
Maybe try to charge to 100%, then turn of your phone, remove your battery for about a minute and then boot again. It's supposed to work:D Let me know;)

He's on LSJ, so Siyah doesn't work;)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
That is normal, when you flash something, the battery will go down about that.

Once developers are able to do some battery tweaks, it will be less but for now, you will need to live with a 20 % battery reduction when flashing something.

It's $299 - $100 Walmart E-Giftcard = $199! Great for those for a new account.

Linky: http://wireless.walmart.com/eCommerce/SpecialOffer.aspx?cid=36575_f288944bf50047879ddee43a18be2111

I've already read people on the Slickdeals forum for those wanting to upgrade, they just called customer service to order the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jinwu57:
Thank you! Saw this on SD and was looking for the link to it. Do you know how I would apply my company discount if I was to buy via Walmart.com? Also, any chance Walmart would waive activation fee?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
You can always call Verizon customer service to apply your company discount. If your company discount includes waiving of the activation fee, they normally remove that as well. It can all be done after the fact. That's how I've handle my previous new accounts before with different carriers so I would think they would do the same. I don't think you can get Walmart to waive it but you can always try by calling their customer service number.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jinwu57:
Just pre-ordered...thanks! :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] IvanNCase:
Thanks. I just canceled my Verizon order and did this. BTW you can't keep your unlimited data just by checking the keep existing data option, it messes up the order and then you have to call them and chose one of the other data options. I thought it'd be worth a try though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
It says it applies to upgrades as well, but it also says "ships when available". I have a $50 credit at Verizon so I might just get it there so I know I don't have to wait several weeks.

Also, people should note that it is an eGift card, so you won't be able to use it in stores on groceries etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] empiremaster23:
Is this just a today thing, available through cyber monday or likely throughout the holiday season?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sno4Life:
It's a limited time thing, but you don't get the card until you are out if the 14 day exchange period. The guy I ordered from said they already have the Verizon Note 2s in their warehouse, and are waiting for launch to send them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] empiremaster23:
Again, is limited time today? For a variety of reasons, I would rather buy on monday (I need to decide whether to upgrade or buy outright to keep unlimited data), but would do it now if the offer expires today.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
I THINK a local store also had $100 gift cards with a bunch of in stock phones (including GS3) until December 1st. That doesn't mean the online site will keep this deal until then though...

You could call or email them. I'm sure they'll tell you if it's ending soon so you feel rushed to buy from them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
The $100 promotion runs until December 1st.

http://wireless.walmart.com/additionalDetailsDisplay.aspx?AdditionalDetailsID=8214

I have a $100 walmart GC so this is a perfect combo for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tkun:
Does this one come with a sim card? I don't have my own yet and I know Verizon gives you one for free when you preorder from them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
I called my local wal-mart and they had no idea of the promotion. Can someone else call their local wal-mart and see if they know anything about this as well?

Plus it isn't really like we are getting the N2 for 199.99. It should say 299.99 + $100 eGift card.

EDIT: There is a commercial for this on the TV. I called back my local wal-mart and they said they have the same offer and that the associate I talked to earlier must've been in electronics and not in their mobile dept.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Vegas863:
This may be an issue for some...

I was all set to jump on this deal and then read some of the terms and conditions. For those of you who are looking to upgrade another line and then move the phone over to your line in order to keep your unlimited data, you could potentially trigger a fee of up to $400 by doing so. Please see the bolded text.

Instant Savings Discounts

By accepting this Instant Savings Discount, you agree to repay $200 of this discount ($400 for smartphones, tablets, and netbooks) and authorize us to charge your credit card in repayment of this amount if, you signed up for a 2 year agreement and during the 181 days after your new equipment is activated, Verizon Wireless notifies us that the services you purchased have been suspended, disconnected, or deactivated, or if you return your purchase outside of the return and exchange provisions of our Satisfaction Guarantee.

Other than you simply deactivating a line we've activated, Verizon Wireless could notify us that you deactivated if:

You fail to pay Verizon Wireless in accordance with their terms and conditions

You transfer equipment we activate on one line to another Verizon Wireless line, even within the same account

You activate this equipment on a new line of service on Verizon Wireless and use it to replace an existing Verizon Wireless line by deactivating the existing line.

I'm guessing this won't be a problem if you transfer an eligible upgrade over to another line, since by doing such a transfer, it now ties the line that is taking the upgrade to the new data terms (e.g. removes grandfathered unlimited data). However, this is different than trying to circumvent the system and keep your unlimited data.

My fear is that this trigger doesn't happen within the 14 return period and then you are stuck with a phone on a different line than what you originally wanted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] miiike:
My fear is what happens when I sell the Note2 for a different phone in 6 months. Am I going to get a $400 charge?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Vegas863:
As long as you have kept the phone for a minimum of 181 days (approx. 6 months) you should be fine. As that is the trigger for the Instant Savings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tkun:
I decided to bite bullet by cancelling my Verizon pre-order and going for this deal, but once I ordered it they told me it was out of stock. Now I have to wait for some unknown time to even find out when my phone will be shipped. Unbelievable. I know I'm getting a $100 gift card, but it's not like Wal-Mart is the sorta place I would want to shop (with the way they treat their employees and whatnot). Eh, it's just a phone, I'll get over this. I'm just a bit irked right now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
Yes, I followed up on this since someone else in my family is interested in the N2. I am forced to buy one at VZW because I need to deactivate it and swap-lines. However, my sister does not... so I called in Wal-Mart and ordered through them since she does not really care when she gets it. The deal is this, the eGift card works both in real life and online per the rep. If you want to use these gift cards somewhere else, buy a visa gift card. They charge a fee, but pretty much you can move it elsewhere. The other issue is VZW allows you to get $50 off without activation fees (with some haggling, I've had no luck with this, but other members have) so $30 saved too. So essentially if you are up for the $50 off at vzw, you can save a whopping $20 by going to Wal-Mart. According to the rep i've talked to, they have no idea when they will ship out the phone. The phone, according to them, is in very high demand. They are awaiting stock still and have no clue when it will be shipped out from their warehouse.

On another note, I was looking at their insurance plans for phones. No deduct, covers stolen, water damage, etc... for $60 bucks for two years. Seems way better than VZW, which has a $150 deduct, and BB, which doesn't cover stolen devices.

Anyone deal with their insurance at Wal-Mart? Seems sweet, since they are such a big company they rarely fight with customers in terms of returns... so I assume this should be the least amount of hassle in covering the device?

EDIT:

here is the funny part too. you don't get the gift card right away. she said as late as feb 2013 you will get a code for it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
Where do you see insurance plans for contract phones? I can only find them for non-contract and pre-paid phones. Do you have a link?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
Damn, I didn't even see that. I just read the link to the side that said accidental protection and skipped to the coverage

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=21556885
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
On the web page, if you click the gift card it tells you that you get by the 18th of January. I had changed my mind and pre-ordered the phone with them today, but didn't notice this. I also remember reading that you got it 2 weeks after activation somewhere on there, but they may have extended it if enough people have bought phones?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
That is just what I was told. I called back on the insurance plan and they said I could tack it onto the phone, but wtf do they know anyways? They seem as clueless as the VZW reps tbh. I suppose all customer service is like that.

But yeah, the lady said this phone has an unexpected high demand... so could have something to do with that. Anyways, most likely will cancel my order for my sister if they do not ship it out by the end of this week.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
Yeah, the reps are pretty clueless. I called twice, not specifically for the phone but questions in general (using a gift card towards the purchase and the insurance plans) and both time, the reps were like "hold on, let me check the web site". I said I couldn't find any fields to use a gift card nor can I find any insurance plans as well. Their response? "Oh, if you can't find it on the site, then you won't be able to enter it in and we don't have the protection plan". Basically, they don't have a clue.

I'd take everything they say with a grain of salt. I'll probably go in store tomorrow to order it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
Yeah, the rep I talked to said I can add it on afterwards, like just purchase it and tack it onto my phone... e.g. it didn't have to be in my cart.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
Well, neither the online, retail and customer service says I can use my $100 gift card to help towards the purchase of the phone. Oh well, I guess I'll just convert the this GC and the one I will get to a visa giftcard. Ordered place and looking forward to it! Now time for some accessory shopping :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jinwu57:
FYI - I just got this letter from Walmart:

Thanks for shopping with Walmart Wireless!

Response to our offer on the Samsung Galaxy Note II White - 4G LTE this week was so great that we just depleted our inventory.

Thanks again for shopping with Walmart Wireless.

Sincerely,

Your Friends at Walmart Wireless
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
When did you get this?

I ordered 1 day ago and everything is confirmed minus the ship-date. I'm expecting this e-mail soon, but haven't gotten it yet,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
I ordered mine yesterday and received this at 4pm (EST) today. As I said in the other thread, I think it's a generic status they send to all phones not shipped yet, while ours isn't shipped yet or (in stock) because it's a pre-order and they won't be in until the 29th. Fingers crossed they ship on the 29th.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
Yeah, I replied in that other thread too with a more thorough answer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kcadrenalin:
Are you guys ordering note 2 for Verizon at Walmart? I can find them for sprint, AT&T but no listing for Verizon on the website. Am I missing something ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
You have to do a search for the Note II in the search bar. It won't be listed when you click on the Verizon link as it only lists available and not pre-order devices.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
For those that have purchased through Walmart, did you guys have to submit a copy of your driver license, social security card and a recent utility bill? WTF is that all about??? I have never heard of doing that or have done anything like that for anything less than getting a freaking home mortgage. That's ridiculous. My credit score is well above 800+ and only debt is my home mortgage. Further more, after I did submit those information, they still can't find my application information. I submitted two other times with two Verizon customer representative and afterward they gave me a number and the application id to verify it was processed. So the three application ID that I have (once with Walmart, twice with verizon), my application cannot be found in their system.

I'm about to say screw it, I'm just going to go with AT&T if this is the way they run their company. Absolutely horrible the way they run things.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
No. My guess is you are opening a new account. In which case, yes, they can require all of these documents. Don't know your level of credit score or visa status, but depending on these they may require more or less info. Tmobile was the same when I signed up too, so it isn't like vzw is the only one
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
Yes, it's a new line.

Really? I have had service on Verizon years back but only Sprint and AT&T the past 4 years and I have never needed to provide a photo copy of my actual driver license and social security card. Just what I gave them was sufficient. My credit score is 800+ so that's not the case. I mean, it only taken me a few minutes to get a credit card with $20k credit line with JUST my social security number. It's pretty ludicrous. I'll given them a day or two to sort things out. If not, I'll just stick with AT&T and pay a bit more. It's almost like they aren't even trying.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
Yeah man. I'm not saying I agree with it. They have **** customer service so get used to this kind of treatment. I've had multiple run ins with them regarding my bill - even threatened going to AT&T or T-mobile, and they pretty much have a do what you want type of attitude, like I need them more than they need me.

Which is right, but god damn, for a business to act like this, this size is just crazy to me. Just look around you, now everyone is excited for the N2, but let us not forget we are the last to get this phone and even two days prior to the release they still have yet to announce a release date. Typical verizon attitude.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaWolf850:
Also, make sure to search for "galaxy note ii", not "galaxy note 2". The latter only shows AT&T, Sprint & T-Mobile versions. Verizon's version only appears for the former search term.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wooties:
Has anyone got shipping confirmation yet? I got the same email yesterday about the same time. -Just wanted to know if Walmart was shipping yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jinwu57:
nope. If I don't get a confirmation by tomorrow, I'm going to cancel I think. By 11/29, the Verizon stores should have it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
I don't think that is realistic. I would give it till Dec 1st if you are serious about giving them enough time to get the phoens, process them, and send them out.

otherwise, may as well just cancel right now and get a vzw
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tkun:
I really doubt you'll get a confirmation by tomorrow. Expect the confirmation to come on the 29th at the earliest. I'm not expecting to receive this phone till sometime next week, but I'm getting a $100 gift card in return for this extra wait, so I'm okay.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
So after spending quite a few number of hours, 4 separate applications submission (which by the last application, I was informed that each time one is submitted, there is a hard pull on your credit, not just once!) , I finally got everything squared away. I had to call Verizon Fraud department and ask them to check my information. Why the Verizon customer service can't do that is beyond me. In any case, when I called I was informed the information I emailed to them did not match the information on the applications. Well, I gave the rep all the information over the phone to make sure it's correct and it was. I asked him to check the information I had email to them and compare the information again. Well, won't you know it, it matched (of course!). I asked him why was there an issue the first time around then. His response "Looks like someone made a mistake". Ok, I get that, people make mistake. No problem. But the customer should not have to jump through hoops and do all this legwork themselves. It's in absolute poor form.

I'm leery about continuing on with Verizon but I will as their plans for 3 lines and with our needs will be cheaper than AT&T's by $20 a month. Their coverage is definitely better so it makes the pill easier to swallow. In any case, it looks like I'm finally approved and Walmart validated my order.
