Read the warranty. Scratches aren't covered, unless the phone came with the scratches.

You should be able to get them to fix the reboot problem though, even if they have to replace the insides of your phone. But you'll still have a scratched screen.

---------- Post added at 11:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:12 AM ----------

Gorilla Glass is indeed scratch-resistant. But that doesn't mean it won't scratch.

And does AT&T or Samsung even advertise that the Note 2 has Gorilla Glass? I don't see that in any of their specs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] twanskys204:
No did I say it was scrach proof,,, , scratch resistant:sly:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] LittleRedDot:
Even if the op is responsible for his own scratch, the reality of at&t warranty is he will get a new/refurbished phone for the rebooting problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] a_ok2me:
Just go to the nearest at&t service center and have them reflash it. See if that works first. It doesn't involve swapping the hardware, so the scratch would not be an issue.

I was in recovery and suddenly my phone died while i was installing Cyanogenmod 10.1.

Then i tried to charge the battery and boot into fastboot by holding +/- volume and power buuton, but the phone would just boot normally.

The installation of Cyanogenmod 10.1 had not completed, so i was stuck at the Google sign.

Is there a way to get into fastboot-download mode or in recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Have a read here.

Hold volume up and volume down, and then press and hold power.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kostas271:
I did it but again it took me to the Google sign.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rammsteiner:
Same problem

I got the same problem... i am unable to enter fastboot mode by pressing both volume + and - and power button at the same time.

Have you found any answer to this problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
are you pressing and holding both vol up and down and THEN pressing the power button and continuing to hold the vol buttons?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samersh72:
will it boot in fastboot mode via adb command?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
'adb reboot bootloader'

Just thought i 'd mention; STOP NECROBUMPING, this damn thread was abandoned in January.

If only at least someone was doing their "jobs".

I know the command sir, im just asking the other user if he can go in fastboot via adb.

At the other hand, no problem from bumping old thread with same subject. It is better than open a new thread ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] LittleRedDot:
So I decided to do what the manufacturer recommends when it comes to the battery, you know, charge it fully then discharge it. So I pulled it off the charger at 6am at 100%....moderate to heavy usage all day as I just unwrapped it, went to bed at 76%...so i turned on navigation and opened up a movie on Netflix hoping that would drive the battery down. I woke up at 56%! Myvold note would be dead, but this thing just keeps going! Christmas have mercy, this thing is amazing!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] technut:
Yea man,Samsung did a phenomenal job this time around with the battery .I came from the i717 and I am so happy about battery life now!!!! :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ragin Caucasian:
agreed. I was skeptical about the battery life reviews prior to purchasing and with a larger display and faster processor I figured no way any of this could be true. Coming from Galaxy SII that could not make a 6 hour day of use without being tethered to a PC and going out with anything less than a full charge was a recipe for disaster.

I can go a full day browsing and playing music on my Note II and not drain the battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aridon:
Battery life is amazing. I have to really try and kill it to get it dead inside of a day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Evo:
It's not too hard to kill the battery on this monster. You can do a few things to really get the battery down, such as actual gaming, watching movies, and a lot of web browsing. Outside of that, it's really difficult to kill this battery under 24 hours. I have had very limited usage on my phone over the holiday. I am up to 77+ hours of battery time and a little over 3 hours of screen-on time and still have 7% battery left! If someone put a gun to my head and asked me to truthfully tell them when's the last time I had a phone other than the Note II, that could last 3 days without a charge, someone better call a really good clean-up crew!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] LITEPSI:
I love the battery life, but I'm thinking about getting an extended battery just for the heck of it.

This thing rivals some of the later model RIM devices I've had. Well done Samsung.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lordpelvis:
I agree. It's amazing. Makes you wonder if they are going to put an even bigger and better one in the note 3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] golfinggino:
I am shocked at the battery life on this, if I knew it was this good I would have bought it the first day it came out about twice as long as my note 1 and quite a bit longer then my nexus 4. I bought the phone Tuesday rooted and running clearom 3.5 and note2core ex kernel and about to get over 8 hours screen on time on the first full cycle of the battery I am amazed !!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] thephoneguyusa:
Its nice to have a phone that you can run a live wallpaper on and it not drain the battery like crazy!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gman4nj:
Im getting 24 hours plus on my phone...cant complain one bit
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] wiser212:
8 hours of screen time watching movies on a cross country flight and I landed at 60% Holy smokes!! I've never come close draining the battery on a full heavy usage day.

---------- Post added at 01:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:47 AM ----------

I have everything turned on. Bluetooth, exchange sync, all Google services sync, Skype in background, IM+ in background, weather update at 15min and still can't come close in draining the battery. I am also trying to fully charge the battery and drain it. It takes me a day and half to kill it with everything running and navigation running wherever I go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] msavic6:
I find this hard to believe, 8 hours of movies only using up 40%. That's 5%/hr, that's amazing if true.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] wiser212:
It was in airplane mode though since I was in the air.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] etrustin:
When the phone uses L T E connection the battery goes down 10% per hour. I guess that is normal for everyone too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jrodri29:
I get phenomenal battery life. Cant complain. I average about 32-36 hours per charge y about 4 to 4 1/2 hrs of screen time

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sdelliott31:
Yeah Im on stock still and im on my second day of messing around. Im so used to my Note 1 that every night needed a charge even with power save on lol. Super well done. Charges quicker as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] krwkenn:
I too am quite surprised by the battery life offered by the Note II. This thing simply smokes any other phone I've used in terms of how long I can get out of a single charge, it's really impressive. I'm used to plugging my phone in every 6-8 hours on a day of heavy usage even with power saving mode turned on, whereas the Note II seems to be able to go pretty much all day and even then some depending on the usage.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] STimo3:
I have the s3, but two of my good friends both have noteII and the first thing they both mentioned to me about the phone is the battery life! After being around one for a full day with much usage, I must agree it is very impressive for such a big screen!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mizz lia:
I love the battery life. I charge my phone every other day depending of how much ive been using the phone. I hate to charge my phone all the time but with this I dont have that problem.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] livingaboard:
not sure where the original poster gets their information about having to do specific things to a battery like fully discharge it and so forth. That certainly isn't in the manual. I believe it does say to charge it before use like just about every other rechargeable battery powered item in the world.

I think this notion that people have about how the battery has to be discharged, then pulled from the phone and inserted, rebooted, plugged in to charge, wait till it is 100%, remove battery...blah blah....blah is ridiculous an borderline OCD. Its a friggen battery. Charge the damn thing and use it. Recharge when necessary.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] LittleRedDot:
I used the at&t tutorial guidelines for first charge. It stated to start with 100 battery and let it drain continuously to near empty then charge to full.

Getting back to my original point I did find something that would drain the battery... Messing wrong in twrp will drain the battery pretty fast.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheGrandFinale2001:
I have the CleanRom and Perseus kernel and my Note 2 just sips battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] FromToronto:
For even better battery life I would definitely recommend rooting and installing a custom rom such as CleanRom.

The second I flashed the custom rom the battery lasted noticibly longer. With 3 push email accounts and lte data always on my battery drains about 1% every 3hrs in idle vs 1in1 on stock rom. The awake times when screen is off had also noticeably decreased.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mad383Max:
I have found the exact opposite. On stock rom unrooted rom with bloat apps disabled, I was able to consistently get 2 days plus with 7 to 8 hours screen time. With 2 different custom roms with same apps loaded and same phone settings, the best I have seen is 1 day and 16 hours with similar screen on times. Loss of 8 to 10 hours total time. Tried different kernels but have yet to get back to where I was on stock. Not worried about it as the custom rom/kernels offer more flexibility so I stay on them. Currently on jedi x6.1.2 band loving it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] dennisdunbar:
I'm using CleanRom 3.5 and love the battery life. With heavy use and on LTE all day long, I can last the entire day.

you can always install "Real Time GPS Tracker" and set it to poll every second. This will drain the battery quickly. hehe
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] JayRatliff:
I just loaded the new kernel. Seems to be a heck of a lot faster than Perseus that I had loaded. Running Cleanrom 3.5, dont want to load 4 until they get all the toggles worked out.

Currently charging to 100%, we shall see!

Just looking at your notification bar and I can automatically assume you have a bunch of apps running in the background.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rsalan:
Betterbatterystats and check for wake locks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] JayRatliff:
Looks to me like your screen brightness may be the cause. I run mine right at 45-50% and get pretty good times out of it. If you are running 100% brightness, not sure what the times should look like.

Just the 4 apps listed used 20% combined. If you scroll on down in the list and start stacking them up it may be worse. Ensure you are killing your apps after you finish with them.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Evo:
The only thing I would recommend for this ... to fully take control of your screens brightness ... is a lovely app available on Google Play called "Lux." Nothing else comes close, especially those crap screen filter apps. With Lux, you can essentially make your screen pitch black if you wish. There's both a free and paid version. I have the paid version and have been using it since the original Note was out. Here's a link...

Coming from the Galaxy Nexus this phone has unbelievable battery life. I used to have to charge the Nexus every day... This phone gets me 2 days and I'm a moderate to heavy user.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] crawlgsx:
That is my #1 favorite thing about the Note series, incredible battery life. Even my Original Note had amazing battery life (compared to most of the Android handsets of its time) and the Note II is phenomenal. I can go almost 3 days without charging, whereas with every single Android phone I have owned before would not make it 2, many of which barely (or not) made it one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scythe024:
So when the phone came out, i automatically picked up a spare battery with charging dock for it. I had 2 sets for my note 1 and the spare battery has come in handy. With the Note 2... I think ive only had to use the spare battery once and I got them both at launch. The only reason I needed it was because of a 3 hr plane ride followed by a 3hr car ride the same day, it definately got a lot of use that day lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] imsiin:
thanks for everyone's help. just wanted to post a follow up to my battery stats after the re install .

how am I doing now?

I am satisfied but defiantly need to charge every night
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mechanical tool:
I don't know how it would show up in battery stats, but being in areas with low signal will definitely use more power, with either lte or 3g data.

When I have my phone on wifi vs network data the battery definitely lasts longer.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrevankyle:
Just judging by your notification bar i can tell you to turn off your bluetooth and close your apps and notifications when you are done with them. They keep your phone out of sleep mode and really kill your battery
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] LittleRedDot:
Have you found a long - press-to-close option? I'm backing out of apps instead of using the home button but when I hold the home button down they still show up?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrevankyle:
No samsung replaced long press back with opening and closing multiwindow but you can set something to key 206 and that will work the same

And if you dont want to mess with the keylayout then long pressing home and clicking the little pie chart and clearing ram really helps out

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ElpeePhablet:
Off topic a bit. I was told talking or playing games during charging would cause reduction of the batery lifespan. Is that true?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Evo:
Can I ask what exactly you were doing with your phone in those 18 hours? Because unless you were doing things that can quickly drain the battery, such as gaming, video watching, etc., 18 hours and only 4 hours of screen time is not impressive. I've gotten 55 hours and 4.5 hours of screen time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Carlrobling:
Game play, videos, allshare cast, bluetooth music in my car, netflix, navigation, xda, net browsing, txt and talk, and odds and ends apps. I dont get great lte coverage in my town so the radio is constantly jumping 4g and lte. Im running stock rooted deodexed with persues most recent kernel oc 1.8 cpu 800 mhz gpu. Nothing special. Just general everyday use that most of your average users will use (probably more). Coming from a skyrocket then the s3 I'm pretty happy and impressed. I never said anyone else would be just that I was. And really who leaves there phone off the charger for 55 hours except for bragging rights. Most of your general users will be more then happy with 18 hours of battery life on a phone let alone the note 2.
