Haha you are pathetic.. Yes everyone who buys an iphone should ignore its apparent smoothness and focus on the invisible and fictional "crumbling" background apps. No one really cares mate! It is actually laughable and a sure-fire sign you have been found out that you resort to calling me, an Android user who has used every operating system and has an unbiased view of all of them, a fanboy. Very sad and desperate behaviour.

Face facts.. you are a sad little fanboy and feel it neccessary to hide behind a product. This behaviour is most bizzare and a mystery to most normal people, but seems to be quite common nowadays among the people who feel the need to desperately cling to something.

If you're under 16, you will hopefully grow up soon. If you're over 16 then you are a very sad and pathetic individual. If you need to "hate" something then you'll find plenty of friends on the anti-apple (iFail) gravy train.

Oh my god what are you? 12? Someone lock this down.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Dude what are you 12? And you're calling me pathetic cuz you wanna buy into a load of BS put on by a company who claims their products "just work" when in reality its a bold faced lie. I'm 30 BTW so no not under 16, I just happen to have a better grasp of how operating systems really function beyond the looks.

I prefer to have a phone that is truly MY phone and not what some dumbass at the manufacturer says it should be. This is why I don't buy HTC, Motorola or LG products. I make my decisions based on how open the product is so I can choose to modify it as I see fit. It's pretty funny you call me pathetic yet you have no valid argument so you resort to name calling like a petulant child. Great debate tactics there, very mature of you.:thumbdown:

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] fade2black101:
The valid arguement is iOS is smoother and you rambling on a bunch of nonsense to try to justify why it doesn't matter. Many people do not care about tweaking and they don't care about your theory of why it is smoother. The facts are iOS is simple and fluid, which suits many people. I'm calling you out for your obvious fanboy-ism and "android is better iFail LOLZ" attitude which is your opinion. Spouting a bunch of fanboy nonsense doesn't make it true and the same goes for the apple fanboys. I prefer Android but can see the value in something simple and fluid like iOS. I also had several of the old windowd mobile phones before Android, so I'm well aware of function over fluidity. Funilly enough the same debates were going on back then in regards to the iPhone.

I'd suggest you're the one that needs to grow up and jump off your biased gravy train.

I wonder, will you now accept that people have different needs for a phone and that you trying to state that iphone is crap is your own subjective and biased view? Or will you continue to let your "FanDroid" bias dictate your reply?

Dude grow the hell up. Learn that other people have different opinions than you, and name calling just makes you look like an immature moron with no valid argument.

Seemingly I understand a lot more than you and have been on this site a lot longer than you stretching back to the Windows Mobile days which required a lot more work than Android.

It would appear I'm more intelligent than you too since you managed to "pretend" that I can't accept other people's opinions, yet the whole point of this debate was to call you out on trying to state as fact that iFail sucks. You must really be dumb if you can't grasp the hypocrisy of that. I own a Note 2, not an iPhone, and I'll put it to you that most people who own an iOS device do not care about the ins and outs of why things such as scrolling appear much more fluid. You'll patronizingly try telling me to "grow up" again, yet it is clear you pretend to yourself that you're more intelligent than anyone who can see the merit in iOS.

You need to accept that your opinion about something being "crap" doesn't make it true, and you need to stop the patronizing and hypocritical backtracking. Once you accept your opinions aren't fact, then I'll be happy to move on from this. Will you be able to do that though?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
I've already moved on, your opinion doesn't matter to me. It's nice you think so highly of yourself tho. And I never said iOS was crap I said you can't compare and iPhone to the note 2 since they aren't even the same class of device. iOS is programmed to fake out the enduser which is disingenuous, I'd rather no there was an error so I can work to prevent it from happening again. But I digress I'm done responding to someone who can do nothing more than resort to childish name calling because someone won't bow to their ill informed opinions. :sly::rolleyes:

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] fade2black101:
Yet more hypocracy from the guy who made a thinly veiled dig that anyone who owns something like an iPhone must be "dumb."

Yeah these invisible errors that no one who has an iphone cares about are really important aren't they. I hope all these iphone users know they are being "tricked" by the OS. You seem like a very paranoid child.

But hey, I'm glad you finally admit that you're opinion is irrelevant to most the world who just want something simple and fluid. Maybe you're not as much of a blind fanboy as I thought.

Bye Bye

I have dropped my Note 2 twice from waist level onto tile and it didn't shatter the glass or reveal any type of noticeable damage. Just to be on the safe side though I went ahead and picked up a Otterbox Defender series case and haven't looked back.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] fade2black101:
I got this case (or one very very similar) and it seems pretty decent with the added benefit of a kickstand.

The 1st layer or rubber combined with the plastic part make it seem like it would absorb the damage from a fall and it gives it good grip (I haven't dropped it to find out)

The quality also seems really good given the price and kickstand is useful.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Flystone®-H...5871602&sr=8-1&keywords=note+2+kickstand+case
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] IsolatedAbyss:
I've dropped my Note 2 a few times already.

1. From slightly lower than my pocket to hard ground, face down.

2. Slipped from my lap to carpet floor, hitting on the side/corner.

3. I was doing pull-ups and it came out from my pockets (so elevated height) dropping on hard ground. When I dismounted the bar, I even landed on it unknowingly!!! The phone was face down on the floor. Might have cracked it if I stepped on the screen instead of the back though.

4. Dropped by my 3 year old niece on hard floor. Didn't catch how it fell.

Glad I have my UAG case protecting it. Zero damage to the phone AND the case. Still looks brand new. lol
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] krazzykiller:
I so agree with this guy. I phones are not very well built at all. I don't honestly understand why

People still buy them. My gn2 is pretty dorrible I have dropped it a couple of

Times once on gravel lol. I don't have a case just a screen protector.

Id say it's as tuff as any thing else. Don't abuse it and keep it dry

Watch putting it in your pojet with your keys. You should be fine.

Of course if you need something that can handle some really harsh

Inveroments Motorola makes an iden phone with a full watt transmitter

That's almost indestructible. I think it's called an R something.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] fade2black101:
Sorry but you'll never convince me that the Note 2 has less chance of a cracked screen than the iPhone from a small drop. I know several people with the iPhone who have never cracked the screen or even the casing and they are careless with them and without cases. Similarly all I keep hearing about is the note 2 screen shattering from 2 foot drops while having a case and screen protector on.

Of course it all depends on how it falls, but I'm not buying that the note 2 is less susceptible to damage than the iphone, despite what you lot say.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] xartic12:
When you drop an iphone the force is contained within the phone. When you drop a note, the force is expelled out of the battery and battery door hence the phone coming apart on impact. You cannot convince me that the 1.5 ft drop on rocks that obliterated my iPhone was harder than my note flying out of my sweat pants, went sliding down the road at least 10-15 feet. The phone and battery were separated by a 2 lane road but only showed signs of light scratches. From my personal experiences, and the 30+ iPhone 4 and 4S I have fixed, these phones are far superior in durability than an iPhone could ever copy from.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] :
Convincing you wouldn't change the fact that the Note 2 has superior durability. Every glass can break or shatter... even bulletproof glass. They may be tempered to become stronger. Tempered glass also shatters into little pieces rather than shards of glass to avoid injury. Glass is glass, not Diamond. It can always be scratched and cracked.

I love the fact that Samsung does not taper the screen to the edges so the force on impact is on the shell rather than the screen.

This is a Note 2 durability forum why do we keep kicking the dead horse with mentioning apple?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] fade2black101:
Because I disagree with your assertion that the Note 2 is more durable than iphone or the HTC One. And I'll mention any phone that I want, even if it upsets you.

You'll claim the Note 2 is more durable as fact. So I'll claim as fact that the note 2 screen has more chance of cracking than the iphone casing or screen or the htc one case or screen. I have never ever ever known anyone who cracked anything on a HTC phone or an iphone from a 2 foot soft drop. The same can't be said about the Note 2.

If you have observed the opposite, then fair enough and I can see why you take the position you do. But from what I've seen I'm inclined to disagree with you.

So since we'll never agree with each other, lets agree to disagree.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] HiCZoK:
And what hyperglaze exactly is ?

The shine on the back. It seems to be way more scratch resistant while being very shiny. Usually shiny surfaces scratch crazy fast like samsung cover+ for n2. I have it for a week and it have plenty of scratches... while having N2 without case for a week before that and no scratch at all.

That + silver borders durability and camera lens/glass.

I don't think we need to discuss screen resitance here too. It is gorilla glass 2. Its good for pocket and general handling. It might survive fall or it might not. Just avoid sand, dirt etc. I was happy with gorilla glass1 so 2 must be better and so far gg2 on Note2 seems superior.

also. For thread sake. Please do not discuss Iphones or offtopic matters here. Let me remind You that I am an OP for this topic and I would prefer the topic to be free of fanboys wars (either on android or ios side). Comparisons are good but not to the point of shoving opinions into other people throats.

I for one - do not think the built quality on 4 and 5 iphones are as good as 3g and before was, but that is not really the topice to discuss here.

edit: Most durable phone I ever had was HTC Wildfire tho. The little thing could be thrown around. Dropped it many times. Same with Desire Z. Suprisingly well done. Tho it scratched like hell on back (had to polish it myself).

I never had samsung phone or to say - device with glossy finish and silver borders like N2. That is why I am asking about it.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] HughesNet:
My edge gets marked up very easy. Wish I put it in a case before I realized this but since I did not I now just use a samsung flip case to protect the glass.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] fade2black101:
It's not a fanboy war. If i'm an ios fanboy I'm not a very good one as I own precisely zero i-devices.

What may shock you though is that iPhone is mentioned on practically every single thread on here, and I'd politely suggest that this place is swarming with Samsung fanboys who go on about Apple at every opportunity. Fanboys of any type disgust me. It is not unreasonable to mention other phones when discusing the durability of this phone despite if it hurts people's feelings.

Back on topic. I had the Desire Z as well and was pleasantly surprised with it. I never dropped it though and always had it in case, but it felt sturdy and quality. Felt more durable than my EVO 3D too. Always thought I would miss the physical keyboard, and I certainly did on my EVO 3D. But since I got the Note 2 I finally feel like I can type as fast, if not faster, than when I had one.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] HiCZoK:
I dropped my desire z couple of times. once even on garage concrete floor from table height (with swing speed). no damage to it. only bezel took a hit in a corner and I just polished it

edit: Not too misjudge people who are enjoying device they bought and are happy with it, for fanboys. The line is rather thin.

edit: btw. Does flip cover from samsung have different back than original cover? Or is it the same back but with just flip cover attached ?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] fade2black101:
As far as I'm aware it has a different back.

I haven't got one though because having to flip the cover open each time would drive me insane.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ac16313:
It's a different back. It's thicker and it feels better than the stock one.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] HiCZoK:
Is it available in titanium grey?

is it "hyperglazed" ?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] PhilipTD:
Interesting
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] apallohadas:
If the Note 3 sports that ridiculous unibody nonsense, I'll definitely stay with the 2.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
It would be nice if they went with a bolt on aluminum back using an allen key to remove the battery cover so the battery can still be removed. Although aluminum really sucks as a phone material since it scratches, dents and dings easily. Keep your phone in your pocket with keys/change? Expect your phone to look like sh*t real quick. :thumbdown:

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] PhilipTD:

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] HiCZoK:
There goes gorilla glass2. Have my first (barely noticable) scratch. Dunno from what. I always have phone in samsung protective cover+ and I always clean my pockets so dunno.

btw. i am still thinking about getting something different than spc+. Maybe uag
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] apallohadas:
Sand or quartz will scratch just about anything, and despite some of the more ridiculous claims, there is sand and quartz everywhere on this planet.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vizographic:
Reasonably durable. A short drop to a wood floor....ok. Never have used a case, I have however, used a glass screen protector along with the samsung back/folio cover combo. I work in an office environment and have found this to be an effective balance between maintaining an undamaged phone while minimizing "bulkiness". If I had ceramic tile floors and/or worked in a shop or contruction environments then it would be a different ........case.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bushako:
I use the same case right now and honestly ive tried so many different cases and I always end up going back to the protective cover+. I think its because of its simplicity and the fact that it provides a good balance of protection.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] wyh-5566:
I've got a IS12M (known as XT909 RAZR Japan version).

I applied ICS OTA released by KDDI(AU) and rooted it then installed MMB. After that I flashed another ROM(MIUI GSM for XT910) as 2nd system.

I have a softbank sim, so I flashed bp.img from XT912. After that telephone and sms works. Also I setup the correct APN setting but 3G still does not work. I even mod the pppd-ril.option as I moded in ISW11M. 3G does not work either.

It is said 3G works in the IS12M with docomo SIM.

Can anyone tell me why or have the solution?

thanx

[Q] flashing XT912 firmware on IS12M/XT909

Dear all,

same question here:

got a IS12M (XT909) here in Japan, applied also the ICS OTA update and rooted. But I didn't get my foreign SIM card (SMART and Globe Philippines) to work.

Found a Japanese site which says GSM operation will work after flashing Verizon (XT912) radio image and followed the instructions using translation in Chrome :D. But no improvement.

Then I tried flashing different firmwares using boot menu manager/safestrap. Currently I'm running safestrap 3.11 and CM 10.1 in slot 1. Works great, but still not able to send messages (but I received a few and special SIM card app from SMART works!?), tried to set also APN settings manually - all without success.

Now I'm also wondering if it's possible to flash complete Verizon XT912 firmware? I already downloaded it but not keen enough to flash it. Isn't there anybody out who has done this already?

Thanks...
