Not following here. Is your wife's having the same problem or did you mean you verified yours has an issue because your wife's isn't?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hapticxchaos:
Yes we are both experiencing it. I verified the issue with a test call from both our devices from multiple locations throughout the state. And, well, just from everyday use. I'm able to complete small tasks while I wait for the phone to connect. Like put my jacket and shoes on or climb mt everest.

Ok. Seems highly unlikely to have 2 defective units but guess it is possible.

I have noticed this happening to my phone as well but it is not all of the time just random. I'm running Jedi rom what are you running?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisMitsis:
Hello guys I would like to ask if there is any way to "disable" recovery flashing and wipe as well as the download mode in my new Note II. The reason is that I have installed cerberus and i would like to stop the thief from flashing another rom and loose protection. If there is not any way to disable it please tell me a way that will be very difficult to do so. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v-b-n:
Nope ... just like Apple ;) ... even with passcode lock someone can still restore stock using DFU mode(Apple) and Download mode(Samsung)

The passcode locks are to prevent your data at best not the phone
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisMitsis:
If i format the recovery partition? Or destroy some recovery files?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pakure:
dont try to be foolish..dont meddle without proof............why are you so sure that your phone will get stolen?:(
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
download mode is 2 steps after phone boots.

1st - power is initialized and the super base of the phone calls boot loader

2nd- boot loader loads the download mode.

so it's absolute base.

if you disable download mode, you won't be able to root/unroot/your company won't be able to give you any service etc.

don't be assured that your phone will be lost.

rather setup mobile tracker, which may still be deleted if the thief is super intelligent to factory reset it.

if you are very freaking insane about this, embed the app into system. which may still be deleted.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisMitsis:
:/

I am almost sure that my phone will be stolen cause i am 16 years old and 2 of my friends' phones got stolen as well as my bike :( You will say "Why did you bought suck an expensive phone?". The answer is that i cannot live without high technology, as soon as there is a new exciting thing in the market i wanna buy it. Anyway, I hope that I will be lucky and if my phone get stolen, the thief will not be expert. I have cerberus, the hidden version.:good:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @rbiter:
If that is the case you should get pink phones and insurance. Yeah it may suck having a pink phone and getting made fun of but less likely to be desirable. And then of course insurance to mitigate cost of replacements.

In security settings, you can crypt your device and your external SD card, if your phone is stolen, no one can steal your data.

You have also a SamsungDive account to track and make your device ring, you need wifi or 3g activated in order for this function to work.

I agree that a password protected recovery is a very good idea.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kremata:
Too bad that this thread doesn't generate more interest. All these "security" apps(find my droid/cerberus etc..) are basically useless as everybody who steals phones will wipe them right away. Having a password recovery and download mode would be the ultimate protection and could even discourage theft from attempting to steal.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gub:
Some security apps are stored in /system and survive a wipe (but not an ODIN flash).

Why no more interest in "absolute protection" :

- thieves won't give you back your phone even if it is unuseable, and they can still sell it for parts

- mess up, forget the password => brick

- whatever your local repair shop can do to restore your phone, bad guys can do it too

If you are so sure your phone will get stolen, get insurance.

I have had a few faulty phones Galaxy S3's from o2 (Long story) and as a result they have offered me a Galaxy Note II, But its refurbished :(

Now they are sending me just the phone and battery and i send them back my faulty S3. So it means im stuck with the S3 charger, So will it fit and work ok ? (Maybe a noob question sorry)

Also it now means I don't have a box or accessories, I always keep my box for phones in case i want to sell after contract, so Im a bit peed off, that i don't have box.

So if anyone has there old box laying around with manual and accessories, I would be interested or if anyone knows where i can get one from :(

Phone is Titanium Grey, so would need a box for this phone.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TonikJDK:
The charger from the S3 will work just fine.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonnyR:
Charge will work just fine.

Will take longer to charge than the Note's original one (aprox 3 hrs to a full charge).
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HypoDest:
It will work, but will take significantly longer to charge, now than twice the time.

Try and get an original note 2 charger, the charging time saved is worth it.

Sent from my GT-N7100
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zkyevolved:
I charge only at night because my battery life is so fantastic. So I don't really care if it takes 3 or 5 hours to charge. I use the original Note 2 charger by my bed.

I use my OLD Galaxy S2 charger sometimes when I just want to top off a little before I go to work or I have a long night ahead or for whatever the reason. But most micro usb chargers will work just fine. The only difference is charging time.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigmac161:
Cheers guys, I might go into O2 and tell them i want a new charger then. Cant see why I should have to pay out when phone was faulty.

Anyone know about getting a note 2 box ? or anyone willing to sell me theirs ?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haspko39:
Its interesting and unacceptable. If they accept to change with note 2 they Need to provide full box. Coz its not your fault.

But at least a profitable swap:D
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigmac161:
Basically they are telling me, they are doing me a favour. They have given me the option to swap to the Note 2 due to 2 phones being faulty. Touchwiz stopped working on 1st phone and wouldnt respond, then 2nd phone they sent out, kept freezing and screen was going all weird.

They say they can only send me a refurbished unit, this comes with just battery and no charger or box. They said charger will work from S3 model.

I explained how i like to keep everything for phone, so i can sell it on after contract. But they just said, I would get same amount for phone regardless of if it had box or not lol.

Might go into store today and see what they say, hopefully they might be able to help me out, But if anyone on here wishes to sell me there old grey note 2 box please contact me :D
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vash_h:
The note 2 Congress with a 2amp charger While s3 with a 1amp charger. I would ask them to get u a note 2 2 amp charger.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slk-A4:
This sounds rather odd to me. Here in the Netherlands many stolen phones are sold, just the phone, without original charger or headphones. A box often functions as a proof of purchase. So I would not sell you mine.

You can get the original charger from eBay.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigmac161:
How is it odd ? have you checked ebay and seen note boxes for sale? there are a few but no note 2 boxes. Also there are loads of Samsung galaxy S3 boxes on ebay, and i dare say i will put my old box on ebay too, minus any info about IME number.

If on contract box is not proof of purchase, even if you have insurance with O2 they only ever send you a replacement phone and battery (refurbished not new)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
$100 only. Sir. :p
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pakure:
+1..iam also ready to sell for 100 $...:p:D

Why do you need a box. ..we all pay full price in India here. .no subsidies. ..we have no problem needing the box. .. original bill recipient is enough for warranty issues

Hi all today I was "playing" with my desire z and I thought that what I really miss in cm7 (or every non sense Rom based on gb) are some sense 3.x apps like contacts (really like it ) camera and so on, so I just ask if someone is in interested in develop a Rom based on gb and sense 3.x without rosie and "stupid" things like widgets and unuseful apps.

Something fast but still usable and comfortable (a de-sensed Rom) :)

The sane thing could be done with sense 4.0 :)

That is the E911 lock. It means your phone has a good location to give 911 should you dial it. It can not be gotten rid of as far as I know.

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fontinalis:
Hello everybody and hope you are all enjoying the holidays.

I upgraded my defy from Cyanogenmod 7.2 stable to WhiteRabbit 1.8. I use RunKeeper app a lot so need it to work to log my runs.

Well, I really liked the battery improvement and some other improvements with WR like audio beats, so I upgraded to WR 2.0 and RunKeeper still worked. Then, upgraded to WR 2.1 and Google Play store says that RunKeeper is no longer compatible with my Motorola Defy MB525.

Tried to go back to WR 2.0 and ended up in a boot loop hell, but finally got it sorted out through one of the unbrick posts (RSD, new sbf, 2ndInit, etc...).

So, now back on WR1.8, but really want to run WR 2.1. Can someone test RunKeeper on the latest WR 2.1 and let me know if it works on a Motorola Defy.

Much appreciated. Cheers, and Happy Holidays.

PS...I am a new member and can't post on the WR thread because it is a developer thread so posted here.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fontinalis:
Went back to CM7.2 stable. Let me know if you are having any luck with this app on WR 2.1. Cheers.

Did the same as you... went back to CM 7.2.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lorenard:
Just to let you know, the issue has been fixed.

I don't know if it was some update by Tweety or how I flashed 2.1+.

I know Tweety has update something in the custom zip and in the rom installer. Try the new packages again.

If it doesn't work, do as I did. First, I went back to my bl7 rooted sbf, flashed WR 2.1+, booted the rom and then flashed the custom zip.

After that, I managed to install Runkeeper normally.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fontinalis:
Thanks man. I'll have to download and try again if I get some time before New Years Eve here in the states. Got a lot to do before tomorrow.

One question though. What is "went back to bl7"?

I just learned how to use RSD and flash the SBF from this un-brick thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1807899http://

I tried the US T-Mobile SBF but it didn't work and then I followed all the instructions with his Chinese Rom and the firmware.sbf in the last few steps and got it back to where I could install CM7.2 stable.

I think I read on the WR thread that someone got the WR2.1+ to work but the WR2.1 did not. We'll see. Let me know about the bl7 okay.

Cheers
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lorenard:
bl7 = bootloader 7

By mistake, I flashed a bl7 sbf into my Defy+.

This is a different version of sbf and had been rooted only recently by some guys from xda.

I don't know about the normal defy, but here is the thread I used to bypass the bl7 limitations in my Defy+ -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1542956

After that, I installed SndInitDefy_2.3.apk and only then installed WR and other custom roms.

Good luck and if you have some questions, post them here... maybe I can try to help you.

I'm on the same boat homie. Can't figure it out. I guess it's just another amazing T-Mobile limitation.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mojorisin7178:
Tmobiles 3g and 4g network are the same the 4g is actually just 3g with better antenna technology and I think a power boost. The 3g network is called hspa and 4g is hspa+. That is why att had 3g 3.5g and 4g att considered the hspa+ 3.5g because they launched their lte network as 4g. So technically when tmo launches lte it will be tmos 5g. They changed the definition of the whole thing a while ago. G stands for generation. So that is why tmobile is allowed to call it 4g because it is their 4 generation of high speed internet. There is no actually standard. like edge being 2g hspa being 3g lte 4g the way it should be.

For the roms that use the h, h+, 3g format usually 3g actually EDGE or 2g. H is 3g and h+ is 4g So the net is probally not broken it is just ridiculously slow. I hope I explained that right. That is what it seems like to me from GOOGLEING it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] acideater:
Hey thanks for that info. I tested out all networks again...

4G = Fast Data.

3G = No Data AT ALL.

Edge = Slow Data.

If T-Mobile's 4G and 3G networks are the same thing, why don't I get data when the phone says it's connected to a 3G tower? I had 3G service with my previous phone and it had decent data speed. I could stream music and browse the web easily. Now... 3G just doesn't work at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bestplayer55:
Thanks fo that. Thats what im talking about. I have my other phone (nexus s) and works with 3g tower. Note 2 dosent works. Im going to call tmobile customer service to complain ;) lol

I called tmobile today and the technical support told me they are going refering this issue to the engeniere to look forward what can be happening with this problem, bcse is not normal. We supposed to use tge 3g network too. Sorry my english is bad.
