[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] donjusto:
After the latest Tmobile update this week for the LTE upgrade, My gallery stops working...

If I am in a Text message and want to attach a picture, it goes to the gallery and just sits and nothing happen...

I can go to the gallery and then select share... but is a PIA when I have multiple pictures to send to multiple recipients...and no, they are not the same all the time so having a group will not fix this...

Yes, I have cleared the cache

Yes I have selected to view only the images in device...but then when I go back is defaulted back to all

Yes, I know there is other apps...but why would I add an app when the stock one worked fine before

Yes, I have tried 2 different SD cards...still the same issue

Yes, I did master Re-set

Yes, I took to T-Mo Store and they told me that was not a warranty issue...and yes I spoke to tech support and the guy pretty much read a script and at one point asked me to shut down my galaxy S3...yes, S3...go figure.

I just like to know before I take drastic steps and put a custom rom on the GN2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
Its a bug. Update added a kajillion galleries from Facebook, Picasa etc. More galleries, longer to load. I went through the same thing on my n4 as well. I'm trying to find a solution, been looking for the right cache to clear.

---------- Post added at 07:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 PM ----------

Solved it. Turn off all sync for all photo galleries. I.e Facebook, picasa etc.

Then go to settings, applications, slide over to all, then clear data and cache for gallery.

I unlocked succesfully my MDAII with T-Mobile-NL.

I tried several configurations to get on the internet or make e-mail possible. Does someone knows the config for Vodafone-NL for the MDAII?

I have also the registry tool and noticed that there are several IP-adresses registrated there. Has it to do with that registrations??

Normaly you configure the accespoint and the gateway and a username, but that doesn't work now.

thanks :cry: ks

Just got a mail from seidio, saying that obex case would prevent access to s pen and make it uncomfortable to use, so they won't be making such a case. They instead suggest to go for the convert case, rugged although not waterproof (which, if you ask me, is like giving bananas to someone asking for apples).

I'm really sad and disappointed about this choice, since they put a poll on their site for next obex case and note 2 was leading the chart by many many votes. I see their clear point in this decision, though I wouldn't mind having to open a separate hatch to access my s pen, just like you need to do with other ports, and I would cope with reduce sensibility in exchange for waterproof protection.

That said, I am asking you fellas: is there any comparable case for note 2?

Maybe otterbox is considering an armor case?

Please don't tell me to look for the griffin survivor knock off case that I have seen in many threads here : I am looking for something with similar ruggedness but better look and reduced bulkiness and possibly waterproof. Obex seemed the perfect choice to me: indestructible, slim, good looking!

Cheers to everyone!

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] M4ver1ck:
I asked otter about the Armor case for our phone and they responded that they aren't going to make that type of case for the note 2.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Let me ping them. I know the decision is probably finalized, but perhaps they might listen to one more opinion... The whole point of waterproof case is to use it in extreme environment where NOBODY going to pull out their s-pen, unless you are planning to use it as a weapon lol!!! The problem with a hatch/port cover - in order to be waterproof you have to meet specific military standards of being submerged under the water. Having a flip port cover even with tightest fit won't guarantee it because of the water pressure. But for sure, that OBEX case looks like it can take some serious beating!

R: Seidio won't make OBEX case for our note 2

Please let us know what they will tell you!

Really hoping for a miracle ;)

Will look into it, but what I really like is the idea of a case... Thank you for your suggestion!!

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Official reply from Seidio:

"Unfortunately, we did announce late last month that we will not be making OBEX for the Galaxy Note 2. We wish we could fulfill our customers’ requests however; the OBEX is designed to be a waterproof everyday case and obstructing the S-pen would take away from the functionality of the Note 2."
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] uberjon:
Lame some of us bought our note 2 without even caring about the pen
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Deleted member 308374:
R: Seidio won't make OBEX case for our note 2

I got the same answer, plus something about "look at our other products we make" :(

Well it looks like we and seidio have different point of views, moreover they have to look to businesses and incomes, sells and so on, so I can understand that it might not be worth the effort for them...

Anything similar we might take into account? Any news about an otterbox armor? Thought I read somewhere they won't be making it also... Really bad luck for us note 2 users!!

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] moliugeek:
Long shot but there has been a post on their Facebook page asking for "other" reasons they wouldnt put this into production. If we can all support that post, perhaps they will see we would like to purchase.

If not, anyvother smaller suppliers that specialise in aterproof casing we can bang on the doors of?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
With a resources of small supplier, it will take them at least 2-3 months to design, to test the prototype, to iron-out fixes, to get all the certifications (it has to be tested to military standards), and to get manufacturing in China up and running. Note 2 is already 8+ months old phone at the end of it's cycle. Do you think anybody even cares about it? It's a sad reality.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] internetpilot:
Resurrecting an old thread, I know, but I had to laugh when I saw that Seidio released an Obex case for the Note 3...which....uh....also had a S-Pen.... Oops.

I've since settled for a waterproof bag type "case" to take my Note 2 fishing. I participate in online catch, photo, & release tournaments and they use a phone app for submitting photos out on the water.

The only thing that sucks is I can't get to my S-Pen... Haha Kidding!

With the news of the mega would you get one earlier or wait for the N3?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tdwp16:
I would just wait for the note 3 the mega might be ok if its 5.8 inches, 6.3 is way to big.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eraursls1984:
I think the mega is supposed to be a mid range line, the Note is a high end line. We may not even see the mega line state side, and if so probably not on Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ronaldheld:
Those are good points I did not consider while typing the OP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eraursls1984:
I would imagine the Note 2 is as good or better as a mid range mega will be, and the Note 3 will be amazing. 1080p and better battery life is what I would like to see in a Note 2 successor, but it'll have a lot more than just that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ronaldheld:
are the SoC defined for the Mega? I would prefer the Exynos for the Note 3

Not yet. I love the performance of my Note 2 with Exynos, but I'd love the openness of a snapdragon.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dottore.:
Hey guys/gals

i have a quick question.

what exactly is the difference (featurewise) when it comes to rooting with an unlocked bootloader and rooting with a locked one?

i'm pretty new to android (iOS user until last saturday), did some research today, but didn't really find much usefull information.

main reason i want to root (at least for now. i'm sure i would find more after spending more time with my xperia), is because i want to format my 64gb SD to exfat and move apps over to it.

thanks guys

edit: and no, i'm currently not thinking about getting a different theme/loader on it (this is one of the things you can only do with an unlocked one, right?)

edit2: and yes, my bootloader can be unlocked
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowboy23:
Ok unlocked bootloaders = you lose DRM keys forever and Bravia Engine doesn't work. Relocking won't get them back. You can also overclock/underclock CPU with unlocked bootloader. You can also flash custom ROMs/kernels with unlocked bootloader.

Now with locked bootloader you can still have root but you don't lose your DRM keys. You can't flash custom ROMs/kernels or do any overclocking/underclocking.

That's all I can think of.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dottore.:
yeah, i read about that whole DRM thing. i don't care so much about the Bravia Engine and DRM, but i wouldn't mind it staying (first time i said that about DRM), so thats one of the main reason i didn't just went on with unlocking.

is flashing a custom kernel something more or less common when using a rooted android? could i get the things mentioned done without doing it? (i think i read moving apps only needs root, but then again: the xperia z seems to be a bit special when it comes to extSD)

thanks for the fast reply
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowboy23:
Well it's up to you. You can either flash custom ROMs/kernels if you want but you will need to unlock the bootloader to do that. Locked bootloader you can only have root and that's it sad to say. But you don't have to flash a custom ROM or kernel if you have root. because you can't anyway with a locked bootloader. Having root just means you can use apps that need root access.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dottore.:
ok, thanks. i think i'll stay with the locked one for now...let's see for how long

If it can do 1900, is this accessible using the bandswitch.exe ?

Also is it the same 1900 used in the states (usa) ?

compatible with either system....EU=gsm and USA=cdma. ??
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] superperry:
XDA II is tri-band GSM, w/c you can use anywhere in the world who has GSM coverage. CDMA is a different kind of network. I believed that is US/North America the provider using it are Sprint and Verizon, if I am not mistaken. GSM network are used by T-mobile, Cingular and now AT&T is converting also from TDMA to GSM.

And the answer is NO, you cannot use XDA II to a CDMA network. You have to change hardware parts of it. BUT yes you can used it to 1900 network in the US w/c is GSM.

CDMA-Code Division Multiple Access

TDMA-Time Division Multiple Access

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Peter Poelman:
Right. Within a few years however there will be phones where the entire radio transceiver is handled in software, and where changing system is indeed just a software upgrade.

(And then with some extra software your phone could also be a police scanner, family radio, marine radio, GPS receiver, Iridium/Thuraya/Inmarsat phone, GSM jammer/base station/IMSI-catcher, spread spectrum low-probability-of-detection military radio or celldar unit. Fun!)

Woke up today to my backup phone, I'm waiting for my e4gt replacement's replacement to arrive, fully charged. I've been using the phone for one hour and forty five minutes on the web and I'm down to 72% battery. This phone is almost three weeks old and should be in the nineties or high eighties with the battery by now. I was charging it with an old Samsung charger last night. This is the second Samsung charger that I'm going to throw out because it doesn't have the charging capacity like it used to. I had a friend, years ago, that used to say to unplug the charger when not in use because it will shorten its life if you don't. He claimed the electronics inside wear out after awhile. I thought it was nonsense at the time but I am wondering now if he might have been onto something legit. Just one more thing to take under consideration when trying to figure out why your battery isn't charging fully, even with its trickle top off charge.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PanchoPlanet:
Gee, I don't know oscar, but you would make an interesting case study about what not to do with electronics.

I have two Epics since 11/2011 original phones with the original chargers that have not been unplugged since day one, except when we travel and unplug them to take with us, and the only thing that's been done was replace the batteries last Dec.

They are rooted since day one only one soft brick, and haven't had no issues, no trips to the sprint store, they just function every day, no problems, no complaints.

Hmmm. Maybe you have a unusual electromagnetic polarity that causes your body to damage electronic devices?

Do you have problems with toasters or microwaves? Hmmm.

Do you work where Homer works, in a nuclear reactor? Hmmm.

If you pick up a light bulb does it lights up? Hmmmm.

Maybe try wearing a necklace/pendant with orgonite or particalized quantum quartz crystals, those devices have both been shown to reduce personal interaction with EMF, it might help your electronics issues somewhat, as well as providing the obvious benefit of potentially reducing the undesirable effects of EMFs on your body.

I've been wearing a quantum balance nano particle quartz mineral composite around my neck for about 2 months now, and it's been working great (just like Seeder, no one can agree that it ACTUALLY works or how it works, but almost everyone that sincerely tries it out gets good results despite that).

I think the stock battery of this phone is 2500 and it usually doesn't go down that fast. When I was getting ready for work I turned off the phone and hook it up to a different charger. Then on the way to work, I put it on the car charger and he was fully charged by the time I got to work. Right now, it is over 6 hours later and I am at 74 percent battery.

I said in my first post that I had a backup phone. It isn't an e4gt. Regardless of what brand it is, or where this post should be, I have experienced this with my e4gt many times. Back to the subject of the post. I charged my backup on a different charger last night. I unplugged 50 minutes ago and I'm at 93% now. This is what I meant when I was talking about sometimes old chargers can stop providing a good overnight charge. I've read in instructions for after market extended life batteries to let it top off trickle charge for a few hours after it hits 100% full charge. I know this topic might have been brought up before. There might be some who didn't see it or might at least take it with a grain of salt to try if they might have battery or charging problems in the future. I put my e4gt, the one that is waiting to be replaced, on the same newer charger last night when I was at work. It already had a full charge with the extended battery that was in it. When I got home, unplugged it and started using it, it stayed at 100 for around 30 minutes before the level began going down.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graydiggy:
Well since you aren't directly talking about the E4GT, you are in the wrong forum. It is not the chargers fault anyways. It is either an old battery or erroneous apps causing your battery drain. How can it possibly be the charger when it isn't connected to the device? It is in no way related to the charger not providing enough power. If that were the case, it would either not charge the device at all, or charge it very slowly. Once it us disconnected it will have no effect on the phone.
