[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jamesyboy:
If we're to believe Samsung Display, the display arm of Samsung, which is actually a desperate company, there might not be a Note 3 as we know it. They're replacing both the Note 2 display, as well as the S3 display with a 1920x1080 4.99 inch panel this year. This according to Anandtech. I suppose we could see a curved OLED touting Note, but then again, flexible OLED yield isn't supposed to be good enough for production runs til 2014.

Unless they're keeping the display a secret, this is what most would expect. This doesn't mean that they'll have some other type of offering or combination to allow SPen functionality on say....the S4, but I wouldn't personally design a new chassis around an S4 and call it a Note.

I'd definitely choose the S3 at this point. The Development support will last significantly longer than it will for this device. Isn't it the most popular Android device ever? That is to say, more users often means more ROMs, the pressure to update and develop for it will be higher.

Since were not talking about an upgrade, its a no brainer.

But if you had to use an upgrade, or pay more than say....50-100 bucks (personal figure) I definitely wouldn't do it. A new generation of SoCs is just around the corner. Just as well, the GPU is much more powerful on the S3, but app support and UI/general performance isn't too much better now that we have 4.2 AOSP. And while an official JB is probably a couple months out, but it will bring most Note2 features home for us.

That's the current sitrep for both devices.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
At this point, trade for the S3, as the XDA Note community is shrinking...:(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Theoriginalgiga:
Personally I love my note and it's plenty fast with the stable roms out there. My gf has a S3 and it's a nice device and I can really see the appeal but it really depends on WHAT you plan on doing with it. I remote into computers and my home network. Work on servers all from my phone so moving to a smaller screen isn't what I'd do. It has the horsepower to show up plenty of phones and though it's a gen old with older hardware, I kept my 86 toyota camry longer than I've had this phone and THAT was a piece of crap.

But again it's all about needs and wants. If you feel that you need the faster phone and are willing to loose the screen size, I say go for it.

Agreed, with new phone announcements coming up soon it doesn't make sense to upgrade for any form of currency, but in a straight trade, it might be worth it.

True, but I'd hazard to guess that's more due to the devs waiting for official JB to be released. But as my gf likes to remind me, I'm often wrong :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crixley:
I find the ui performance much smoother on the s3. ridiculously so actually.

the 4.2 roms do help the note but it still isn't in the same ballpark as the s3
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] netter.159:
actually the note 2 non international is fast enough, after you apply the Lag-remover app, posted this month. The Note flies after!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crixley:
but we aren't talking about the note 2

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tat2messiah:
I have the S3 and it is a good device...however I desperatly miss the note and will be tradin my s3 for a not this week....the s3 is great but the display on the note and good size keybaord is worth keeping. In my opion
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crixley:
the fluidity of the s3 blows the note out of the water...

so so smooth.

Hello guys happy Saturday!

I flashed some random kernel a week or so ago and I want to go back to the regular kernel... Where can I find stock cm10 kernels? I imagine it would almost have to be in any cm10-update.zip but I have no idea where to find it or what its called.

Thanks for your help :)

usually you can reflash CM rom and get the kernal back. usually it keeps all the apps and settings that way. Just only wipe divack and cache, NOT system.

Hello, I was thinking about buying a 64GB microSDXC Sandisk memory card and I knew the S2s were tested only for 32GB at highest. But I have read some posts and seen videos, where people say, that the stock i9100 non-G version runs 64GB more or less without problems. So I ask: can it be different in my i9100G one? Was there deployed another card reader? Thanks much

Hey guys,

I'm on stock but with root. My phone doesn't reboot after the OTA update. Is this because I'm rooted?

Just to clarify - it's the system update app that doesn't work. It counts down to 0, then... nothing. Phone is usable, the updater doesn't reboot to update.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] equallyunequal:
Same happened to mine (not rooted) I had to flash back to 4.2.1 and wipe data/cache to get my phone to start up. Then it ran the system update again and got stuck in the same loop. I'm sticking with 4.2.1 for now.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Just flash the whole 4.2.2 rom from here https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/occam-jdq39-factory-345dc199.tgz and reroot.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] equallyunequal:
I did that, and go the same loop as when I did the OTA; I had to go find an archive of the 4.2.1 ROM and flash that to get it to start up (even flashing many times and wiping user/cache).

I'm going to try sideloading the 4.2.2 update when I have time
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brpqzme:
Thanks, I'll try that zip. Just to clarify - my phone isn't even installing the update. It's not stuck on the black Reboot screen, it's stuck on the countdown screen where you tap REBOOT & INSTALL. So essentially the phone is usable.. the updater just doesn't seem to work :eek:

Hiya! Did you ever find an answer?

I'm on 4.2.2 stock system for sph-l720, rooted, used triangle away and tried to get update 4.3 to install.

***Do I need to unroot to get samsung/sprint updates? The update keeps appearing but all progress from "android system update" stops after download verified, then the "rebooting now" step goes forever. Like OP, phone works fine, just wanted to update so I get best of newer apps, then back to customizing :fingers-crossed:

Hopefully some of you smarter guys can help me. Where my OG used

To pick up lte it doesnt anymore. I know the signal is there because my

Daughter can still get it. Sometimes if i go to settings and switch off lte and then switch it back on I'll get a signal.

Anybody heard of yhis happening?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
Make sure lte/cdma is on. Try setting Connection Optimizer to off and try updating profile. Or maybe even an airplane toggle.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] bizzshow26:
Mine does the same thing lte has been released since September in my area and I can't hold lte either my only option is to enable and disable airplane mode and the phone will immediately pick it up. I'm on replacement number two and all have done the same thing.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] stealthily:
guys you can try this, go to the dialer and enter in ##3282# (##data#). go down to the advanced sub panel and edit the Next LTE Scan to 300, BSR timer to 120, BSR Max Timer to 300. You will need your MSL for this to work. Battery life will not decrease. This setting change will change the time frame cycle between scanning for a LTE signal to 2-5 minutes. For example if your connected to LTE and loose connection the phone will automaticly scan for it again in 2 minutes instead of the stock set time.

Hey guys,

I recently moved to nexus 4 from iphone 4.

Previously with the iphone i had all my contacts synced to gmail contacts

and it worked fine

but after I moved to nexus 4 , it is not working fine

Any new contact I add on gmail contacts it syncs with the phone,

but when I add a contact on the phone it is not syncing to gmail contacts.

This is annoying and everytime I try to sync the contacts I get an error message(see the attachment)

I called up Google and they have no idea whats wrong.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
If you have another gmail account, log in to that one and add the account that you have in the picture and delete your second account and perform sync. It should work.

I have the same problem with my Nexus 4, everything syncs fine except Contacts that stopped syncing on December 28, 2012. What can I do to fix it?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeteT:
I had this exact problem for the last couple of days. I fixed it by doing this:

1. Settings -> Accounts -> Google -> Select your account -> Removing the tick from the Contacts Sync

2.Settings -> Apps -> Scroll to "All" tab, Find "Contacts", Click Force stop and Clear Data

3.Settings -> Apps -> Scroll to "All" tab, Find "Contacts Storage", Click Force stop and Clear Data

I hope this helps:good:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] montrealguy:
This sounds like a very bad idea. My contact sync stopped working in Dec 2013. If I followed your directions, all the contacts that I created on my phone will be deleted, INCLUDING all the new contacts that never synced to Google Contacts in the cloud. It would be a disaster.

The only way to do this safely is for the person to backup all his contacts BEFORE doing this.

Honestly? Based on all the various issues with the official JB, I recommend you to unlock it and flash a custom rom instead.

Theres really no point in sticking with the official crap. Unless you have a very good reason to? Id like to know that in that case :)

I want to use official jellybean.. just to try.

Later on i am sure to unlock bootloader and move to custom roms
[HTC One S] Deleted member 3544975:
Well honestly if you want the official jelly bean them you just need to wait for your carrier to push it to your device. Can't imagine why you would want the stock JB, it's not that great. You can get so much more with a custom ROM, better battery life for starters.

hello! my brother rooted my phone last week before he left out of the country and he left me his xda info to ask if i had any questions since i wont be able to contact him much. my question is, does anyone know of a rom i can use that has functioning wifi tether? we have the unlimited plan but no tether and i would really love to use it. my brother installed darthstalker x and im kinda bored of it (its a great rom dont get me wrong). im just looking for something like an aokp? or aosp? idk what the difference is.. and if possible, maybe with the same motion functionality like on the original s3 rom. i like sliding my hand across to screen capture and all that haha. thanks for all the help!

ps he also installed a different kernel? idk what that means except that he said that i'll get better battery life, thats always a plus
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
If you want motion functions then you need to stay with a touchwiz based ROM, I think most of them have the free tether cooked in by now, it should say in the first post or changelogs if it does or not
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jordeeeezy:
what are good aokp or aosp roms or whatever to try? i mean i dont NEED motion functions. i just thought maybe there was a rom that implemented that stuff

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ArkAngel06:
CyanogenMod 10.1 4.2.2 latest nightly works great, including encrypted WiFi hotspot as long as you flash a kernel with it. Stock Cyanogen kernel breaks encryption. The kernel I am using right now is LeanKernel, and everything works great.

Another great ROM is PACman 4.2.1, which is a combination of ParanoidAndroid, AOKP, and CyanogenMod. I stopped using it, cause the settings are kind of a mess at the moment with most of the AOKP options being blank, but again, everything works on it, including encrypted Hotspot, and Bluetooth streaming. I like this ROM mostly because of the ParanoidAndroid settings that let you change the screen density, and per app density. This one does not need another kernel to get the hotspot working.

Here are some links:

CyanogenMod 10.1

LeanKernel

PACman ROM

Oh, and some info on tethering....T-mobile blocks it on PC's using pretty much any ROM, but you can spoof it with a browser UserAgent change and you should be good to go.

I have cynogenMod 10.1 nightly build 20130213 and LeanKernal 2.4. Still couldn't get secure wi-fi hotspot running. Any advice? What am I doing wrong? :confused:

I used cynogenMod 10.0 stable version, released on 2012-11-13

Now I'm going to test out other stuff, like making phone calls, call qualities...etc. The most important feature for me is the secure wi-fi. :D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jordeeeezy:
im able to get a secure connection on dandroid but i'll give cyanogenmod 10 a shot. also i noticed as i looked into the leankernel host, did you download the right file? if i remember reading correctly, att and tmobile are pretty much the same. i looked over it a couple days ago and thought they were all just updates. today i noticed that there was att, sprint, and verizon (noob mode lol..)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ArkAngel06:
You went back to a 4.1 build, wifi tether worked fine back then.

If you want 4.2.2 with encrypted wifi, try the latest CM10.1 nightly with LeanKernel 2.6. That combo works perfect for me.

The hard part is looking for a replacement battery lol! Doubt sony would be selling OEM batteries for a phone that doesn't have a removable battery.

Hi everyone, two really quick n00b questions...

Do you have to upgrade Hboot from say 1.21 to 1.39 etc if you want to run a new platform (Jelly Bean) Sense ROM?

And you don't have to upgrade Hboot to get a AOSP Jelly Bean ROM?

The reason I ask is because I'm trying to figure out if Hboot is directly linked to Sense ROMs, it's because I've just read this thing saying you have to update Hboot to get JellyBean on your HOX... but I'm running CM10 on my HOX with Hboot 1.21 (I think...) lol.
