[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Evo:
This question is redundant for many reasons, the biggest being I've seen about two active threads on XDA, about this...

Cnet: Galaxy Note 3 with 6.3-inch display reportedly in the works
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] BlackPhantomX:
The rumor is that 6.3" will be the next screen size. Whether this is true remains to be seen. Too early to tell.

With a 16:9 aspect ratio for the screen, that would mean the width of the phone would grow approximately 0.375" more, or 3.5". (Note II's width is 3.125".)

Personally, I actually like the idea. I probably wouldn't even mind a 7" (Approximately 7.25" if I go by 9cm x 16cm.) screen if they keep to the edge thinness around the screen, if not thinner. That should allow the growth of the phone to be as minimal as possible. Of course, I'd stop at 7" for the max size I wouldn't mind on my phone. Any larger and many people will definitely start having problems holding their phones edge to edge.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] inningsdefeat500:
General Thread - thus the question

I am basically saying that since many of us got this as pseudo tablet, it would be nice to have a slightly bigger screen so we could read ebooks etc

When I got the S3, screen seemed big and then we get used to it, same with the note - but we could increase that threshold to perfection
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] twanskys204:
Its still a phone man...are u kidding? if thats the case u gonna expect them to make it 8 inches next year???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] inningsdefeat500:
I know but much better than carrying 2 devices, what I am saying it would satisfy being a tablet and a regular phone if it was slightly more bigger

I have no issues carrying it now, hands have plenty more room
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] UserNamer:
I wouldn't care for a larger screen so much as I would like Samsung to natively support a better pixel density so that I could fit more onto the screen. Something like 182 instead of the default 240(?).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] SGarnett:
If they kept the phone the same size, but increased the screen size, it would not be too bad.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Evo:
I'm wondering if the next Note could eliminate the home button. That would be one way of increasing screen real estate, without making the device too much larger. It could go fully-touchscreen, as Jelly Bean devices are supposed to be, anyway. However, I think the home button has sort of become synonymous with the Galaxy line of devices, so it may stay. I would love 6 - 6.3" inches on the new Note. I wouldn't have issues with mobility.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jon3sh:
Why not 7" I think it will still fit my back pocket gotta love big screen phone. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] inningsdefeat500:
Then its like the tablet, but seriously, slightly more bigger would be sweet
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sweetboy02125:
I would like to see no home button and screen extended all the way up and down. 6"-6,3" screen would be awesome.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sabre31:
I am fine as is hope they don't make the size of the phone bigger. If they can make screen bigger but keep same size I am OK with that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] dara.parsavand:
I used to think I'd want a Note 3 to have a 6" screen with small bezels and no home button. Now that I've played with my Note 2 for a week, I'm guessing I'll prefer going the other way. I'd rather have a 5" 1080p phone with very thin side bezels, a thin top bezel, and a thicker bottom bezel with 5 configurable capacitive buttons (I have a Nexus 7 and I like most things Nexus, but disagree with the move to on-screen buttons which most of the time waste real-estate). I'd be fine with a thicker phone too though to get an even bigger battery - heck, I'll take 4000 mAh or more, now that I know what 3100 can do. I knew the Note 2 was long and had tried mockups before buying, but now that I have the real thing, it's a bit too long for me - not a deal breaker, but I no longer think about going bigger. By the time 5" 1080p screens are common items and I upgrade from the Note 2, I hope there will be lots of options, some with pens (which I'm not convinced I need, but an interesting thing to try), and ideally, some without Touchwiz which I really don't like so far - I'm sure I'll be trying a ROM with a more Nexus like experience before I'm done with this phone. Too bad Google missed the ball (for me) so badly with the Nexus 4, I would have liked to consider it. Maybe the Nexus 5 or whatever the first 1080p Nexus will be called will be better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mghboy:
Yes it will has 6 inch screen:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Evo:
This has absolutely no chance in hell of happening, for a plethora of reasons.

1) It would be going backwards, when sales of the Galaxy Note line have proven that people like phones with really large screens, so Samsung backtracking to anything smaller that 5.5" inches would be stupid, and would eventually run into product overlap.

2) The product overlap would come with the rumored Galaxy S4. The S4 is strongly rumored to have a 5" screen. There's probably a good chance it will also have 1080p, but I sort of doubt it. At any rate, there would be no business case for Samsung to have two products that are virtually identical. The S III already shares a significant amount of the Note IIs features, sans having an S Pen. You make a Note III with a 5" screen and you'll just have an S4 with an S Pen. That's utterly asinine.

3) I'm willing to bet the vast majority of people wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a 720p screen and a 1080p screen. This is just the hype for this year. Seems like every year there a new hype geared towards sheep and ill-informed people. One year it was 3D technology. Last year it was quad core technology. This year its 1080p. Another year photo pixels were all the rave. Another year Apple's retina display was all the rave. Pretty much none of those things mean jack s*** in the grand scheme of things. I remember when I was going to purchase a new 40"+ 3D LED TV. I read many reviews to see if there was a huge difference between 720p and full-1080p HD. EVERY review stated that the only time the difference between 720p & 1080p became noticeable and worth considering, was when you had a screen larger than 40". So, if that's true, there's no way in hell anyone is seeing a noteworthy screen difference in a device as small as a cellular phone. At one point, I had a 720p Plasma HDTV and a 3D LED HDTV, simultaneously. To be honest, I was more impressed with the display on my 720p plasma, than I am on my 1080p 3D TV I ended up keeping. And I only kept the 3D television because it was packed with more features that sort of leveled the playing field.

If you desire as smaller phone, the great thing about Android, is that there's seemingly an endless array of phones to choose from. Get an S III or S4 or DNA or Nexus. Sounds like the Note II isn't a good fit for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] dara.parsavand:
Currently I'm sure I can't tell the difference between 1280x720 and 1920x1080 for a 5" display. When I finally break down and admit I'm old enough to use reading glasses (which I should have done years ago as my close focus distance moved from 7" where it used to be to 13" now), then I suspect I will be able to tell the difference when holding my phone closer than 8". Other than focus, I have no issue holding my phone that close and I'll be able to get that much more detail into my brain (from maps, text, whatever). You can call 1080p hype if you want, but I think it is still actual progress. I don't know what photo pixels are, and I was not interested in 3D myself, but 1080p I am optimistic about.

Sorry if I'm not following thread rules or something - I'm just saying what I was thinking. I agree that Samsung Note 3 will quite likely go bigger, especially if the S4 is bigger. Who knows, anything could happen by the time I get another phone - maybe the glasses concept will be so appealing, I'll go that route.

I chose the Note II because a) I wanted a 5" or more display, b) I wanted to try out the s-pen concept which I don't know if it will be for me or not till I try, c) I wanted a big battery, and SD storage, d) I don't want to change carriers since as much as I don't like AT&T for many reasons, I'm on a family plan which I don't want to change and they are the only carrier with good coverage over my work campus. I ruled out the Nexus 4 and the Droid DNA pretty fast though I looked at them. I absolutely didn't need LTE and my data experience with AT&T around Los Angeles for a few days and Las Vegas for a few days has been very unimpressive - no better than my previous 3GS iPhone. Hopefully that will improve as the network improves.

Anyway, it's pretty early to speculate now - I better get back to figuring out how to use my phone to get my core iPhone use cases working again: podcasts, visual voicemail (both of these use cases require installing add on software I've found), offline topographic maps (I have 3 programs I've been trying on the Nexus 7), and a few other things. For ROMs, the HyperNote sounded the most interesting to me, but it seems like the AT&T model won't run many ROMs yet (e.g. no HyperNote yet) - I hope this is some transitional issue as porting ROMs from the International to the various carrier versions (which is a huge annoyance to me that this fracturing even exists) is worked out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] crawlgsx:
This. I wouldn't want anything physically bigger, but if they can remove more bezel (and NOT remove physical buttons), That would be sweet.

Hey guys. Been running aokp by ktoonz for a few months but noticed something off today. A huge percentage of battery used by "Phone". Screen shot is attached. I actually barely used my phone at all today.. Though it was roaming a bit due to holiday travel. I figure that wouldn't cause a huge amount of drain though. 2hr and 9min of cpu use of that process and 4min of keep awake... Pretty low keep awake but high cpu use, right?

Any ideas? Thanks!

i want to install the bootanimation.zip from xperia tablet

in my sony tablet S

its safe to do this?

can someone give me the bootanimation.zip?

regards.
[Sony Tablet S] CoolApps:
I am not sure because the Boot Animation may only support dual screen.
[Sony Tablet S] xperia_pro:
But the xperia tab dont have dual screen OwO
[Sony Tablet S] Cat McGowan:
Yes, it is safe to use the bootanimation.zip of the Xperia Tablet S on a Sony Tablet S. After all, a bootanimation.zip file is just an uncompressed archive file containing a desc.txt file and one or more folders of image files. Also, because the XTS and STS screens have the same pixel resolution, there would be no need to adjust the pixel values in the desc.txt file. I do not own an XTS, so I cannot provide you with its bootanimation.zip.

Hello XDA developers!

I recently tried to install JellyBam on my S2 I9100 and soft bricked it. I fixed the problem by reverting back to stock, re-installing CWM and root, and then proceeded to install JellyBam again. So, once it was up and running I needed to transfer all my old data back to my phone. I connected my phone to my computer via USB and immediately as I did, Windows popped up with window saying "would you like to scan this device?" and I pressed yes in order to access my device. Everything seemed fine but immediately after it said I was down to 4.1GB of total space!! I had 11.9GB before, so Windows must have done something wrong. I tried going into CWM, wiping my cache, data, dalvik, fixing permissions, but nothing. After, I tried re-installing the original Samsung 4.04 ICS firmware, still nothing. Finally I tried a factory reset and that didn't help either. I'm now really perplexed as to what happened. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
that happens so because u have flashed a wrong 'pit' file while flashing the stock firmware to get rid of the so called 'Soft brick' ma8:)

try reflashing with the right 'pit' file to regain back the 11.9GB for now:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mondrus17:
I didn't flash a .pit file when I was flashing the stock firmware. The firmware I had downloaded only contained APBOOT, CSC, MODEM, and CODE files.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:

No, the repartition box on ODIN is not checked by default, unless something weird happened on ur PC (may be a ghost of some sort;)), any way next time remember to uncheck the same before proceeding with 'ODIN' flash:)

A little background:

I unlocked the bootloader on my phone using this thread :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1478678

Used data2sd, EXT2 without any major issues. Although HTC skin would revert back to stock when i reboot the phone. That was acceptable cause I used to change the skin again. Phone did not crash(although apps would if it goes way beyond what the device can handle). Restarts worked fine and it worked like a charm from past 7 months+.

I did do a factory reset of the phone previously (after rooting it) due to some issues, but it was just the phone that was reset, not the SD card. There were no issues, i still had 900MB~1GB internal memory even after reset. On 25th December, I thought of a factory reset again(thinking that it may speed up my phone a little it etc etc). I did an entire reset, phone+SD card(I know, that was dumb). data was backed up from SD on my PC. that's ok.

The problem:

I can see Super user app on my phone, it says Su binary missing / out of date. There is no button to update super user binaries. Installed ES file explorer, enabled root. it thew an error saying that there was no root access. I tried the Super user updater app, no go. Internal memory dropped down to 128 as usual. All the features work fine now, but i lost root access.

What I’ve tied :

I didnt want to brick my phone because I use this phone for wifi tethering mainly and its somewhat important. I also have another phone which is a basic phone. I did a lot of searching on XDA, google. found the old thread(the one mentioned above) and tried to flash root.zip again before I could apply EXT3 and use it. When i copy the old files (ph11img.zip, root.zip etc listed above) to my SD card, tried to go for bootloader, it threw another error :

CID incorrect!

Update Fail!

Press power to reboot.

I'm stuck at this point. Do not know how to proceed. Can someone help me get the root access back and let me use EXT3/EXT2 again?

I thought about the ph11img.zip that might bring the error mesage. You updated your bootloader already, so I think you don't need this file. Or when does the error message appear? In recovery or in bootloader?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
Cwm is recovery,that thread is alittle old, mine is clearer. If you factory reset it will wipe anything added in extra. If install a rooted rom it will not wipe it, if you add root to stock and wipe it will disappear. Meaning you will have to redo the root process again.

Look for the stickie threads made by me as these will guide you in everything root and recovery.

Do not use the pm11img.zip again as it will not help, you already have it used.

If you have factory reset, then reaply recovey if missing and reflash root.zip.
