mot.proximity.delay=10 ...... add that line to your build prop for the issue during phone calls. should help quite a bit.

as far as the MTP issue, not sure, i have had the same issue but not consistently. it works fine on my lap top, but not on my buddy's. both running the same version of windows.

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 PM ----------

i'll address a few things here.

i will say this - the note II is the fastest android device i have owned. blows everything away in performance by a longshot. and i just came from an S3.

not one blip of screen jitters while it was stock, which was pretty impressive. the only time i have seen any kind of lag was when something i did caused it. most people that have these issues are causing it themselves. this device has zero issues managing it's RAM, rendering, and cpu tasks. period. if you have had "lag" (and i get sick of hearing that noob term) you are causing it with a crap launcher or some other onslaught of terrible battery, cpu hogging applications.

the only thing i want more out of this device is a 1080p resolution screen. and that is by no means a complaint about the existing 720p.. it is flawless. glad they went away from the garbage pentile pixel screen that the galaxy nexus, s II, s III, and most other sammy devices have. they are terrible.

My biggest complaint is that I didn't buy this phone sooner. That's it. I can deal with all the 1-2 second lags. Not much I can do in 1 second that the lag is holding me back from.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] NightsSPIDER:
1+

all phones ive had have thoes types of lags more or less.

and ive had all kinds of phones from all brands. and when i say all i mean it. i have a repair shop and buy my phones very cheap without contract so i keep on changing them. And IVE HAD IPHONES!!! the best one was the 4s YES THE 4S NOT THE 5!!! and i would never change a galaxy for an iphone. much neither this holly thing that i hold now cause is by far the best phone ive had. its the one ive stayed longer with. and im not planing on changing it for the Galaxy SIV .

But i still have a complain and it is the F@$$@^*** MTP. i prefer the old "Mount As USB Storage". i think my computer is the problem cause it wont install the driver no matter how i do it, manually or auto. Ive install drivers for all others models of Note2, all GSM ones and the 3 CDMA and all of them worked except my T889. (and my friends T889 neither). but it orks on my friends laptop and pc (both phones)

I absolutely loathe TouchWiz. The TouchWiz apps are ugly and the only one I actually like is S Note and camera. All the other ones; AOSP apps look SO MUCH better. Even the AOSP skin in general. Like, what's with Samsung's obsession with replacing the stock gradient in Android with a plain boring black background?

For me the delay is minimal and too many things I could not have on an IPhone. Not enough customization, no widgets. The screen is tiny. I tried one. Got a free one to use at work. Gave it back.

All valid issues the OP mentioned, while still minor can be quite annoying at times.

My main one is, not being able to use the stylus on the back/menu buttons, which must be concern as I believe the Note 3 you will be able to use the stylus.

Besides that, can live with the little lag when waking the phone and the end call stuff.

Just my experience.

Some thoughts shouldn't be expressed

Well this isn't a forum for feeding the freaking' hungry. It is for discussing phones and related software and accessories. I for one am interested in the pros and cons of the phone and would hope that people could offer solutions or workarounds instead of posting simply to judge someone else's post.

Now back the regularly scheduled discussion...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] smileybri:
This is my first Android

So, I left Windows Mobile this week (HTC Radar, HTC HD2, and some others before that).

This is my first Android and I have to say that I am amazed and disappointed at the same time. I think you all already know why I am amazed with Android and with the Note II in particular, but why I am disappointed is what brought me to this thread. I don't want to just complain, I actually think there have to be solutions to these issues and I think my being a complete Android noob is what is in the way. Please flame me, but do so with solutions.

1. Chrome - you are on a large screen device that I would like to use with one hand, but your address bar is at the top of the screen where I can't reach it. Why? How can I move to the bottom?

2. Phone / Contacts - same thing. The main buttons (or tabs) to change main areas are at the top where I can't reach them with one hand. Why not at the bottom?

3. The call log. Even with View by "All Calls" enabled some calls are actually missing from the log. Calls that I know I made ore received. WTF?

4. I installed Advanced Task Killer at the advice of a friend. Some programs that I know I didn't open are always open for some reason? See screenshot.

That is just the start. I really was of the opinion that Android had come of age. I certainly like the enormous extended features and capabilities. Clearly Android is the winner here. There is not doubt though that Windows Mobile does what it does (admittedly limited) much better. I am open to the fact that some of this is a learning curve, and I hope fellow XDAers will be helpful and not just flame me for "complaining." I clearly understand that compared to people starving these are minor things.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhilipTD:
It's a little too small.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] RonnieRuff:
Uninstall the task killer. That was bad advice. Android manages apps on its own. Task killers do more harm than good.

Lag is present where any computation takes place. Hardware and ROM can only mask/tweak it.

If your going to be pedantically curt at least try to be well thought out.

Not trying to be curt just Google ANDROID LAG. Google is aware of it. Various XDA devs have tried to address it.

He has a valid point. However the article is particularly vague as to why exactly that can never change, or an innovative solution can never be found. To simply say Android is doomed to lag for eternity seems small minded. Is is first and foremost an opinion piece.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] cjk2010:
The general UI lag is not what most ppl complain if here. The primary complaint is from deep sleep to wake. Basically hitting he home button to the time the screen lights up varies from 1-3 seconds for many ppl.

The article mentioned is correct and I have dealt with it for years on Android app programming. It has been nearly nonexistent since the advent of dual core cpu's in mobile. More muscle is not the best approach but it's difficult for most ppl to observe UI lag in any recent devices. Unlike the days of the original DROID... But a fair comparison is pit an OG iPhone against an OG DROID and the results aren't so different at all.

This phone specifically, competes and exceeds my iPhone 5 and iPad 3 in nearly every way with exception of deep sleep wake up and html page rendering interruption
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sirdowski:
And iOS, and Windows phone, and OSX, and Windows, and Linux, etc.

The real point is there's lag "specific" to every device on the planet.

I don't buy into the lame Apple v. Android war because I can legitimately understand why people like the iPhone over any android device, and vice versa. Same thing with Windows phone. However, I know many people who acknowledge their iPhone 5 has lag, their lumia has lag, and their GSIII has lag. I personally have not had issues with lag on my Note II.

Post 2: How to flash a custom ROM and kernel (boot.img)

The fun part! Now, I will teach you how to flash a ROM and boot.img

Find a ROM you like, the first thing you should do is make sure it is COMPATIBLE with your phone. If you find a ROM that is for AT&T and you have the International model, don't be an idiot and flash it. I will not help you with that since you already agreed to my warning from the first post.

S3 ROMs don't work on S4 models and vice versa.

Also, DO NOT ASK IF YOU CAN FLASH A ROM FROM ANOTHER DEVICE!

Will it work? NO! Will it ever work? NO! Can I flash it anyways? Brick your device, I don't care. I warned you.

Let's get back on task. So you found the ROM you want to try, so go ahead and download it. KEEP THE THREAD OPEN! MAKE SURE YOU READ EVERYTHING AND REREAD IT AGAIN! READ WHAT USERS SAID ABOUT IT AND ABOUT BUGS! GO AHEAD AND READ THE WHOLE ENTIRE THREAD! GAIN KNOWLEDGE!!

Connect your USB cable to your phone. View the folders on your phone. I like to make a folder called ROMs on my phone and transfer it in there.

After you transfer it, open my toolkit and press Boot into Recovery. When you are in TWRP, MAKE A BACKUP!!!

After you make a backup AKA a Nandroid, click Wipe. Wipe Cache, Dalvik, Factory Reset and System. NOTHING ELSE! If you click anything else, IT WILL WIPE YOUR SD CARD AND YOU WILL HAVE MORE ISSUES ON YOUR HEAD!

So you wiped everything. Great. Your phone is ROMless, Yay!

Now go back and press install. Go to the folder where the ROM you downloaded, is located in. Select the ROM and slide the screen to flash it. After it flashes, press the back button. Press Reboot and Reboot into bootloader. Open the ROM you downloaded from your computer. You should see boot.img. Extract it to your computer. Open my toolkit and press Flash a Kernel. Locate the boot.img and it will flash it.

After it flashes, press reboot from the phone.

Congrats! Enjoy your fully working or borked ROM! Remember, DO NOT ASK FOR ETAs, DO NOT BUG/PM A DEV ABOUT UPDATES, and BE RESPECTFUL TO THE DEVELOPERS!

Post 3: How to reverse everything and go back to stock

Now, let's talk about getting back to stock. There are 2 ways to do this.

1. Flash the stock RUU (If available) (Recommended)

2. Restore your Nandroid (backup that I told you to make earlier)

1. I'll talk about flashing the stock RUU first.

Open up my toolkit and press "Factory RUU" from the links sections. I usually have the most updated RUUs that Football releases on my Dev-Host account. Download the correct RUU for your phone.

Now, back up all your data (pictures, contacts, etc) since this will put your phone back to complete stock.

Connect the USB cable to your phone.

Press Relock bootloader. It may give you a security warning error or it may say failed. Who cares, ignore it. It's normal.

Your phone will boot up normally.

When the phone is fully loaded. Unplug and replug the USB cable back in the phone. Now,run the RUU you downloaded and follow the instructions.

Your phone will be back to stock.

2. Now, we will talk about restoring your nandroid backup.

Connect your phone to the computer. Open up the folder to view the files on your phone.

From your computer, Go to TWRP -> BACKUPS -> (Your hardware Serial Number) -> (Folder you wish to restore to) -> and copy boot.emmc.win to your computer. Rename boot..emmc.win to boot.img

Open my toolkit and press boot into recovery.

Click Wipe. Wipe Cache, Dalvik, Factory Reset and System. NOTHING ELSE! If you click anything else, IT WILL WIPE YOUR SD CARD AND YOU WILL HAVE MORE ISSUES ON YOUR HEAD!

Press back and press Restore. Choose the backup to restore to.

After it finishes, press the back button. Press Reboot and select bootloader.

Open my toolkit and press Flash a Kernel. Locate the boot.img and it will flash it.

You are now back to your stock Nandroid.

4. How to use ADB Sideload

You may have seen what ADB Sideload around the forums but have no idea what it is. Since the HTC One S does not have an SD card, it makes things harder when you have to flash a ROM.

Here's a scenario when we need to use ADB Sideload.

1. You accidentally wiped your internal SD and have no ROM on your phone

2. You wiped your ROM and forgot to transfer a custom ROM/have no backups(Nandroid) available.

3, You have none of the above and there is no available RUU for your phone. <----- This is a real bummer.

Here are the steps to load on a ROM

I placed TWRP in my toolkit for a reason. CWM does not support ADB Sideload (as far as I know) and TWRP does.

Boot into recovery manually. Turn your device off and hold the VOLUME DOWN + POWER button together until the BOOTLOADER pops up. Press the VOLUME DOWN button until you have selected RECOVERY. Press the POWER button to get into RECOVERY.

Connect the USB Cable to your phone and computer.

In TWRP, click "Advanced" and select ADB Sideload.

Download a ROM to your computer (if you haven't already done so). Rename it as one word. For example CM10.zip, QX.zip, ARHD.zip, etc.

In my toolkit, under the extras section, press ADB Sideload a ROM. Press "Yes" when it asks you if you are in recovery. Then select the ROM you want to install. It will then sideload it to your phone and flash it.

After it finishes, press the back button. Press Reboot and select bootloader.

Pull the boot.img from the zip file and extract it.

Open my toolkit and press Flash a Kernel. Locate the boot.img and it will flash it.

You now have a ROM on your phone!

Thank you very much for this AIO toolkit, it worked flawlessly on my end (VilleC2).

I've seen this asked before but I still don't understand how to do it exactly. Now that my device is rooted, how do I install a new version of my system (e.g., JB), via OTA? My carrier has not released an update yet but I just want to know how to proceed in this case.

As far as I've read, I'll just have to relock the bootloader (I'll use the AIO Toolkit option), flash the stock recovery (how?), update then unlock the bootloaded again and flash TWRP again. Is this correct?
