[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Evo:
Everything I've heard about the Note 2's screen has been the exact opposite of what you're saying... in other words it is popular opinion that the Note 2's screen is far better than the SIII. I can't remember ever hearing anyone say the opposite, and that's with most reviewers taking note (no pun intended) of the lower pixel density of the Note 2's screen.

I'm really confused. I'm not someone who is always following trends and new technologies when it comes to certain things, so now SnapDragon processors are all the rave, again??? I remember when last year, it seems like SnapDragon processors were the redheaded stepchild and everyone was going crazy over Exynos. Now we're back to SnapDragon's being the best?? :confused:

And that will be your single biggest mistake of your life. I left Sprint a year ago this month for AT&T, and never looked back. I was collectively with Sprint for about six years in two different stints. Terrible service about 75% of the time, and that's being fairly nice. When I finally left, I was paying over $100/month for what was supposed to be unlimited 4G WiMax data and unlimited mobile-to-mobile. The problem is: due to how crappy Sprint's network was (is) and how crappy WiMax was, I would only be able to effectively use WiMax about 5% of the time, if even that much. Call service was spotty and all over the place. Sometimes I could go for a period of time with excellent service, then out of the blue I'm dropping a dozen calls a day or not even being able to use my phone for several hours. On average I was calling Sprint over a dozen times a year just to see what the hell was going on with my service. Since being with AT&T, I've only called them about three times and two of those times, the issues I had wasn't with AT&T service. Plus, I was actually paying UNDER $100/month and now I have a $10 discount with AT&T which puts me at around $90/month. Yes, it's not unlimited, but unlimited is useless when you can never use it (Sprint).

I think absolutely nothing you described will be a feature of the S4, other than a 5" screen. (1) Why would Samsung add an S Pen to the S4? That would effectively make the Note line of phones redundant and pointless. Also, it's almost certain that the next generation of Samsung phones will be buttonless to accommodate the larger screen-sizes and also to distance themselves from Apple copying crap. In order to get a screen around 6" on the Note 3, there will definitely be no physical buttons. That's the point of JellyBean to begin with. Samsung will try to take advantage of every piece of available real estate on the phone before trying to enlarge it even more. That means nearly edge-to-edge screen designs which will force removal of the buttons. Even the rumored S4 photos don't show any home buttons, even though I never put much credibility on these rumor photos as they almost never turn out to be true.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DeRock13:
I'm honestly tempted with the Note 8.0 because of a truly all-in-one device. I'll be holding out for the Note 3. Two phone lines for just myself right now and it enables me to keep my upgrades coming and give me the insurance in case I break my phone (30+ phones in 9 years).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Smoked33:
Not a chance. I could never go with a smaller screen now that I have 5.5" I'll probably keep this for at least 2 years by which time I'd expect a Note 4 or something in 6" plus size offering.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bigjim1488:

gonna wait till note 3 comes out with octa core processor:good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] samven582:
I will make my decision after Thursday. If the S4 fails to impress me I will buy the note 2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] s23kdc5:
I'll just wait for the note 2, the size of this phone is just perfect, wouldn't want it smaller or bigger! phablets ftw!! :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] stiffi2011:
If the S4 is 5 inches then I'm really confused as to Samsungs direction. Why not just have one line? Are there that many people that just can't bring themselves to buy a "phablet"? I mean a 5 inch phone, even without the stylus is still huge.

So im happy with the Note 2. The only thing that could sway me would be a REALLY big camera improvement. I mean like Nokia Pureview type of camera. Barring that ill stick with the Note 2.

I still may get the One or the Nokia Lumia EOS (whenever that comes out).

The camera is the most important feature to me and so far as I can tell the Note 2 has the best camera out right now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] tosh1:
I'm getting it for sure. .got note 2 because s3 was dumbed down... this next version will have a quad core at the very least. Then I'll get note 8 for my big screen
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Antitryptic:
I think I'll probably stay with my Note 2 for now... It provides me with everything I want so far. I'll just get whatever comes out next year, and the hardware improvements will probably be more evident to me. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cashyftw:
Definitely waiting for the note 3, that'll show what my next move is.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] vulcinator:
I'm sticking with my note 2. Not enough improvements for me to make the switch and spend the money. If I was using anything else but the note 2, I still would buy the note 2 over the s4 due to the screen, battery life and s pen.

I have given away my G3 to my Little Brother who doesnt really use it much, just for emergencies etc. But it will always be on so I need a ROM that doesnt really have much features or look nice (Theres always a launcher) but is functional and the battery lasts long.

Is there such ROM and what should I be doing to increase battery life? DeClock? (Running at 1Ghz At the moment!)

Hi,

I have tried to root my lg optimus 4x hd phone by following all the instructions I found on xda and elsewhere.

I will upload my version of the update.

It worked for me every time.

.kdz file you need by your own as it would be to big.

1 way

Run automatic offline procedur.

In the right bottom there must be now the windows enabler symbol. click on it. now there should be the letters " ON "

UpTestEX_mod2_marwin run this as admin

select emergency instead of DIAG

select your kdz ( the v10h in the zip is just a link to a local one on my external hdd. I forgot to erase it)

press on start upgrade.

2 if 1 doesnt work

unplug your phone

exit windows enabler and https server

start windows enabler and https server with admin rights

In the right bottom there must be now the windows enabler symbol. click on it. now there should be the letters " ON "

UpTestEX_mod2_marwin run this as admin

select emergency instead of DIAG

select your kdz ( the v10h in the zip is just a link to a local one on my external hdd. I forgot to erase it)

press on start upgrade.

i hope this works. good luck:good:

THERE IS A FIX FOR EU BUG.....i wasted one day on actually finding out whats going on with our devices....our devices have been basically USB BRICKED...and not CORRUPTED LIKE THAT...we have to correct this thing" can't mount dev block mmcblk0p1"

THOSE GUYS WHO HAVE RECOVERED FROM THIS BUG HAVE BASICALLY SOMEHOW SWITCHED THEIR SDCARD ON....

-http://androidforums.com/desire-tips-tricks/365476-guide-usb-brick-fix.html (MOST IMPORTANT)

the basic thing is that we just need to find how to execute fastboot commands.....i read some pages fastboot refers to bootloader screen and bootloader screen means RECOVERY SCREEN......when i go to the recovery screen and run ADB and execute command all it says after executing the command <waiting for device> (i have checked adb devices...and my device is mounted properly)

WE CAN SWITCH OUR SDCARD ON IF WE CAN EXECUTE THESE COMMANDS SOMEHOW-

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot oem enableqxdm 0

fastboot oem eraseconfig

fastboot oem powerdown

THEY MEAN-

fastboot oem rebootRUU - probably this one doesn't make any sense, but I used it too as a first step

fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 - disables SD card lock (enables SD usage)

fastboot oem eraseconfig - clears and fixes misc parition

fastboot oem powerdown - normal shutdown using fastboot, since I got stucked in recovery saying RUU when I used only the first two commands. I thought it's normal, took out the battery, and restarted, but then I was facing with this Bluetooth/USB storage problem.

PLEASE UPLOAD YOUR PHONE FILES(some 1 who is not having an encrypted device with internal sd working and dont upload your EFS by fault :P happy woody?)i will swap your files with my phone files and check if the phone starts working with aroma manager!!!

WE HAVE TO EXECUTE THESE COMMANDS...OR OTHERWISE WE ARE ON OUR LUCK....SO PLZ DEVELOPERS...HELP US !!!!!! xD... AND READ THE POSTS AND QUESTIONS...FIRST IN THESE LINKS..I AM CURIOUS TO FIX THIS BUG BECAUSE THERES SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL IN THAT USB STORAGE...WHICH I CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE...PLEASE HELP.....
