I'm running deodexed stock, is there anything I or a developer can do that would block any OTA, and block the notification and nagging that would happen?

Thanks again man!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Old MuckenMire:
OK I found that under application manager>all>SDM

The option to disable is greyed out so I guess I will need to freeze via TiBu

Thank you for this info I sure hope it works :) I hate the idea that Verizon can still bork my device.

Oops I see you deleted your last post, does that mean I need to hold off doing the procedure you posted?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] phind123:
These unlocked, developer's edition would make sense if they were available the day the locked version came out. Even if Adam and his team hadn't unlocked the bootloader, any metrics collected from sales or interest in this late developer's edition is would already be skewed because the next big thing like the s4 is now even closer making this device close to being dated before it even ships.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AdamOutler:
nah... the download counters speak for themselves.

1500 so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] crazydad:
Maybe a source code would be available on the dev edition that would help the devs with the locked editions
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
The required source release will be the same for both.

If you see sdm 1.0 in your apps then yes freeze it! I believe on beans rom its already removed. I could not remember if it had it stock, that's why I deleted my post...however I do know it was there on the GS3 stock.

One thing nobody has mentioned is the fact that there is a 32GB version not just 16

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chino0131:
It is in stock. Can you let me know why it should be deleted and/or why I should Freeze it? I see it under system/apps on my phone (stock/rooted... haven't yet unlocked). Just curious.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dominick_7:
Never have rooted a device and have been hesitant about rooting devices (no offense intended) but while I know XDA has a good reputation because I don't know the people who provide the 3rd party software I just don't trust it. I wouldn't trust a friend practically with holding my $700 device for the potential that they'd drop it. Think it's bad enough that any app can be submitted then via update they can get more intrusive or embed something bad, but how would I know if there was not some kind of malware, intrusive data access/theft application, or some other red flag type of thing in a ROM or via the unlocking software? So getting it from the manufacturer unlocked would alleviate my concerns in that regard. Aside from the security issue, Motorola has a way to check the history of whether it's been rooted or not.. if there's a move from Samsung or other entity to check that could there not be a possible way to get into trouble legally somehow with that? If it's from the manufacturer though as an approved unlocked device that would seem to make that point moot. Been considering selling my Note 2 just to get the developer edition but if anyone could assure me of the rooting process it might become more appealing to me. Your input is appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] s10sdeville:
The root process is fine my verizon phone is basically this same phone now just go ahead and root it and all will be good
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Old MuckenMire:
It's to try and block any OTA from Verizon from even attempting to install an upgrade. I was also told to freeze or delete FWupgrade apk. You do these things at your own risk though. As long as you have a custom recovery installed any OTA should fail anyway, but this is mostly an attempt to keep it from even nagging us.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joshw0000:
Adam,

Your unlock exploit on the S3 is what led me to buy one and is why I carried that phone as long as I did (I jump around phones a LOT). The same is true for the Note 2. I understand you also hacked the Galaxy Camera (I really want one of those) too. There's probably more devices that I'm unaware of.

Do you specialize only in Sammy devices? HTC devices are usually unlocked soon after release but I'd love to see an Adam Outler Maxx HD or similar secure device. I know Moto puts some hardcore security on their bootloaders, so maybe it's not possible. Maybe an HTC unlock without going through the dev site. Just throwing out ideas.

I guess what I'm saying is right now Samsung is my favorite manufacturer primarily because a) you've completely unlocked the best devices and b) they can be restored without sacrificing the warranty. This is how Android should be. Thanks for what you do!

Waiting for Developer Edition

Two points, fool: The price of the Developer Version's not disclosed yet & so no one knows if it's more expensive or not. That's obvious, except to the fool above. The less obvious but more important reason for getting the Developer Edition is that the stock version has hidden Verizon spyware on it that locks the GN2 down, renders it useless, when it detects "unapproved software" on the phone. Code hidden perhaps in Verizon's proprietary radio software locked my phone down when I tried to load Google's stock apps. Everything except "off" was disabled, even boot loader mode. On, the screen displayed a 2" yellow triangle on a black screen,.plus the admonition that, as I'd tried to load software unapproved by Verizon, I must now return the phone to the Verizon dealer. So I did. I didn't pay over $700 for this phone to be told what browser I must use. Hopefully, the Developer Edition won't be so tyrannical.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Travisdroidx2:
You did not just call Adam a fool!!! You sir are the fool for flashing something you were not supposed to and not knowing how to fix it. Instead you broke it and took it to verizon. You are the true fool. Adam and his crew are the ones that cracked the bootloader. Show some respect!

If you knew what you were doing you would of fixed it yourself.

The only stock app that you can't install (without rooting) is wallet, if you can't install other stock apps or any different browser then smart phones aren't for you.

The guy obviously is a noob in that he's only posted a few times and made a very rooky mistake. His next major noob mistake was calling Adam a fool, probably the most knowledgeable Sammy developer on XDA. So in the spirit of XDA, let's dog pile him, flame him, and ban him for life.

Now that we've all had fun and thrown a few jabs:

You unlocked, flashed something custom, then relocked. Read this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35348366 for your fix...the one that helped you unlock by the guy you called a fool.

GN2 Developer Edition update

True, I didn't know who I was talking to & I was foolish and inappropriately disrespectful, if he truly broke the anti-developer spyware that Samsung &/or Verizon planted on Galaxy Note 2's. My apologies to all. Without your heavy lifting, we the casual, weekend-warrior programmer-wannabes would still be writing DOS batch files for our x86 PCs.

But also true was my point: In the second week of January last the newly announced G-Note2 Developer Edition wasn't for actually for sale or even priced. So how could A.O. or anybody else call it a bad buy?

BTW, today, ten weeks later, the G-Note2 has still not been priced & it's still not for sale:

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SCH-I605MSAVZW
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
It's a bad buy because it exists solely for the purpose of being unlocked and tinkered with. Why would someone pay $700 for this when they can get the regular one, unlock the hell out of it, and enjoy developer support?

That layman's enough for ya, chief? You won't win this argument...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dominick_7:
Could you Adam or anyone else address my concerns on page 3?

Hi I was wondering if anyone could please address my concerns on page 3? I've been seriously considering rooting but it seems no one can adequately address my security concerns. Even if no ill intent was had on the part of Adam or anyone at XDA, who's to say they can't be bribed, threatened or pressured to add something intrusive or some kind of malware. Google has all but admitted it snoops, Skype the same thing, and it's been admitted the internet was designed with snooping via the C1 A and FB 1 in mind.. I love but also hate tech. Seems like every time they say a particular tech is innovative it also means its intrusive and or sinister (ex. Kinect scanning your house, face, body yippee! Facebook asking all sorts of intrusive questions, companies exposed for using or selling your data/photos etc).. so with this in mind could anyone put my mind at ease on this issue? The fact that I haven't seen it address wherever I've asked it makes me even more hesitant. This is one of the reasons I'd have felt more secure getting a Developer Edition directly from Samsung, and I don't think I'm a fool for saying that. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

I wish phones were like computers...pick the one you like and buy it...put the o/s that you like... windows or android... and then pick your service...i like having a developer phone as long as the phone company would discount your service for not subsidizing your phone...sounds too fair and right...

Quick grab your tin foil hat, the government is listening!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallingd0wn:
What do you plan on doing with your device once it's unlocked? Dev edition or not, it won't be pre-rooted. You'll still need to use an exploit/root tool from XDA for that. Then if you want to install custom ROMs you're going to have the same options that everyone else has which means trusting the devs haven't hidden anything inside their ROMs. Personally, I wouldn't worry about it. I've run custom on every android device I've ever owned without a problem. You hear a lot about devs stealing others work but next to nothing about security threats or spying. If you're that worried about security though, you should probably stick to all stock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lukegman:
if they wanted to they could do it from your stock phone ...but if you think about it... developers do it for fun... or to give back what corporate people think we shouldn't have... so the whole mindset of a developer is way off from being a thief or crook...fear is a tool corporations use to make you behave like a sheep...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KnightCrusader:
The way things are headed, we might be getting some of these options at some point. If all the carriers go to LTE and VoLTE, all we need is multi-band devices to operate on them all. Also there was some post from the Motorola team recently about phone with customizable configurations (like PCs), which also would be another step in the right direction.

You found exploits for the GS3, GN2, and the Camera? Wonder if you had a Stratopshere II if you could find an exploit for that, if they are locked. I would like to get one to tinker with but I wouldn't even know how to figure out if its locked down.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidstyle:
samsung didnt start locking devices on vzw until the gs3 was dropped. the fascinate, charge, and stratosphere all had unlocked bootloaders. not sure about the stratosphere ii.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KnightCrusader:
Yep. I was the one that developed the root method for the first Stratosphere because the bootloader was unlocked, but I have no idea how to go about checking or unlocking the Strat II.

Technically speaking, the Galaxy Nexus was the first device that was shipped locked, however, it was also unlockable by design. But you are right, the GS3 was the first "locked and designed to stay locked" Samsung device on VZW.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nrfitchett4:
yeah, not taking the subsidy is pointless for the most part in the USA. Interesting to see what carriers are doing overseas. They are basically financing phones and the plan is separate. Something about how the gov'ts over there don't think you should be held to the 2 year contract that you knowingly agreed to, to get the subsidy price.

for now, I will just continue to transfer upgrades over to the kids lines and use them to upgrade devices. Right now, I have 2 upgrades available. Might try the next htc to hit verizon just to play with. The Hardware feel and look is definitely superior to Samsung. If the DNA came with 64gb of storage, I'd probably be over there right now. As it is, the note2 really should have come with 32gb storage or had options for different storage sizes. Don't really want to run my core stuff from an sd card, but I'm already out of space on my main storage.

My phone occasionally doesn't get locked automatically. Whenever I receive a message or notification, the screen would come up but doesn't go back into sleep mode after certain time. It just stays awake unless you lock it manually. It doesn't happen all the time but I've noticed it's happening more frequently now days. This just kills my battery life.

Is this known issue with the phone? My phone is just rooted without any custom roms. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

[AT&T LG Optimus G] antheezy:
I am experiencing the same problem as everyone. I just noticed it now. Everything set to minimum of staying awake. I have to manually lock it too. Noticed it when I was charging. I havent noticed it before until now. Also some chargers dont work well with the Optimus G which causes the touchscreen to be sensored when nothing is touching it. I dont know why its staying awake besides that. :(
[AT&T LG Optimus G] bleached45:
If you are using the base ROM, there is a script that gets run each boot that sets the stay awake option to on in the developer options.

It was left over from some testing of the ROM. Nottach said it was safe to get rid of.

The offending script is in /system/etc/init.d/

It is called 69thebase (or something like that, I no longer have the file, I know it is numbered 69).

After you delete it, just go back to developer options and make sure stay awake is unchecked and reboot.

Original Post

Now, you have had issues with non-LG chargers causing touch issues?

I let a family member borrow mine because they left theirs at work. I have been using my old phones charger, and just noticed my screen is really bad when plugged in... it loses touch and it is really slow.

It is from the charger and not the phone?

Awesome.

Thanks.

I wanted to put a list of video reviews for the Note 10.1 on here. The goal is to give you a look at what is available and how it look and fits with the device.

This Post will be updated bi weekly with new Accessory. Hope you enjoy.

The Device is the Galaxy Note 10.1. In this video i am taking a look at the Belkin Cinema Leather Folio With Stand Accessory. This is made for the note 10.1 and has a good fit and form around the device. The case is made from 100% genuine leather and has a good quality look and feel. The only major issue I have with this case is the price. $59.99 is a bit high in my opinion. If you can get pass the price tag then you should be very happy with this case.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
AGREED. At first I was like hmm something seems odd with this keyboard... then I realized what it is. There's no auto-correction. At all. There's supposed to be an option for it in the keyboard settings, but for us whether it's a Verizon only problem or what, we just don't have it.

If someone can confirm on another US carrier other than Verizon that they have auto-correction and the option in the keyboard settings, then that'll be my final WTF VERIZON.

Looked around, and it seems that the Samsung stock keyboard in general just does not have auto-correction. Oh well. Good thing I'm using stock JB keyboard, it's amazing.
