[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
When ur phone doesn't turn on at all, its called a 'brick'. When it turns on, but doesn't start up, its called a 'bootloop'.

In ur case, its better to flash the upgrade manually, then do a factory reset.

Can u get into recovery or download modes? :confused:

Today, April 12th, 2013, Facebook Home was released into the play store for public use on a select few devices. However, many people are skeptical are wondering if this is going to be a worthwhile app to use to replace their home screen, and I’ll let you know right now.

The Good

-

Interface

: When scrolling through the pages and different pictures, the experience you get while using it is very good. If you’re looking for buttery smooth performance, this may be for you

-

Chat Head

s: Chat Heads are little bubbles that pop up whenever you receive a message (or SMS assuming you set it up in settings) through your Messenger app. You can move it all around your screen and they pop up no matter what screen you’re in. You can stack your messages together, or throw them all away. As well when you do click on the chat head, it comes up in a nice little pop up so you don’t have to leave the app you’re in. And of course, if you’re into emojis, facebook has most of them and they will pop up on your friends iPhone or your normal GO SMS/SMS app that also has the emoji codec.

The Bad

-

No Dedicated Camera Button

: You would think with Facebook relying very heavily on pictures it’d have a dedicated camera button in the corner of the screen or something, but no. You actually have to swipe up, go into apps, swipe right, then scroll and find the camera button and move it into your shortcuts. Kind of an annoying and unnecessary hassle.

-

Better Search

: So far, Facebook Home makes you have to keep scrolling and scrolling an endless amount of times until you may find content you are actually interested in. To find your friends you must go into the actually Facebook app itself to view specific people if you can find them on Facebook Home.

-

More Features

: I’m not too huge of a Facebook user. I reply more on Twitter, Google +, and Instagram. While the first two social networks are understandable not to have in Facebook Home, it’d be nice (since Facebook bought out Instagram) if you could make Facebook Home show your Instagram feed instead of your Facebook feed after going into the settings.

-

Support

: If you watched the event, Mark Zuckerberg mentioned he wanted this to be something everyone, on any phone, can use. But at the moment it’s only supported on the Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy S3, HTC One, One X, or One X +.

Final Verdict

While Facebook Home does a couple things right, it really needs to work on things still. At the moment, it’s more a beta than anything else. Hopefully in the coming months when Facebook does its scheduled updates, it’ll add more functionality and phone support so more people can actually use it. If you're really big on Facebook this is gonna be fore you. If you use Facebook to connect with a few people and the rest is a bunch of people you don't really care about then at the moment I'd probably steer towards sticking stock or using something like Nova or Action launcher Pro.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bajasur:
I tried this today.... i honestly felt it was a joke. That's my personal opinion. :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nnnnr14:
I don't like Facebook home but the new bubble feature for the messenger is pretty cool.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] code_monkey74:
I didn't like home either. The chatheads are pretty cool though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Benjamin150:
Agreed, I love the chat heads

Yeah, I'm actually using Facebook messenger for those. Facebook Home though is uninstalled.

As of now, I'd have to agree. Especially if they start pushing ads into it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DroidOnRoids:
I can't even review it to give it 1 Star in the Play Store lol Facebook is just awful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shrike1978:
While you liked the interface, I thought it was absolutely terrible. It failed at both of it's intended purposes for me. It's useless as a Facebook interface and it's useless as a phone interface.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] code_monkey74:
Open your Facebook Messenger then hit menu/settings/sms/mms

I like chatheads so I'm using mine integrated right now too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidfun09:
I cant seem to get chat heads to popup on regular launcher? Under Facebook messager i do not have to option of enabling it. I am on the most current version of it 2.4.2release, Can the Note 2 not do this unless on 4.2.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Benjamin150:
What I mean by liking the interface, I mean the pictures and quality look quite nice. However, navigating through it.. not so pleasant an experience when getting to your apps, settings, into facebooks app itself, etc.

It didn't work for me right away either. Make sure you messenger is updated first of all (mine wasn't), but even after I did that it still didn't work. I reset my phone though and it seemed to work (make sure Chat Heads are enabled in the Messenger settings as well).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Noitron:

I tried it...Wasn't a big fan. I did not make it my home screen...just the lock screen. I left Nova home intact.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] CBConsultation:
Seeing as Facebook is mostly for tweens these days and looking at the comments so far, it just reinforces why I don't use Facebook.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidmakespwn:
I use it for my lock screen and chat heads. Still use nova for my home launcher though.

[HTC Droid DNA] ML417:
I've messed with some of my files on my phone through ES File manager, and I kept getting errors with a specific folder, I then realized that, it's only happening with the folder I created while pushing a file through adb. ESFM has root permissions enabled, but I could not find where to view the permissions for a folder, only files. I also managed to change the stuff in the folder while in recovery. Do I need to set the permissions for the folder through adb right after i create it, or is it a bug somewhere with the ROM/device, or just a random error? If someone could provide an explanation it would be nice.

[HTC Droid DNA] dragonstalker:
See if you can duplicate the error while pulling a logcat. That will help out in solving your problem.
[HTC Droid DNA] t1gartist:
if you dont wanna do that just adb remount and chmod the folder either through adb or adb shell access then restart phone
[HTC Droid DNA] ML417:
It's specific to only the folder i created through adb. I'm wondering if anyone else experienced it, or if it is only on my phone
[HTC Droid DNA] t1gartist:
what type of folder and either way you should be able to just adb shell then su then chmod /path to folder
[HTC Droid DNA] ML417:
I created the folder on the /sdcard while pushing a file from my computer. The folder was still accessable, I just wasn't able to copy anything into it/edit it. What permissions would be given to a folder like that if i didn't specify them?
[HTC Droid DNA] t1gartist:
you should have been able to read and write by default all of mine are... erm.... delete the folder and create it via root browser or what ever explorer you have and you should be able to long press and access permissions

After wipe data/factory reset and flash with the newest rom from here: sourceforge. net/projects/teamacid/files/roms/cyanogenmod-9-unofficial-sgs4gmtd

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wi7dOne:
Hey all again,

Well i use the RedPill kernel, but i noticed that the config "fsync disabled" make some files with 0 kb or folders not accessible. My request is to make the "fsync ENABLE" by default instead of "disable".

When the "bug" ( i know that it can occur when disable. he made it clear in the specs of his kernel) happens in ExtSD, we have to format..but when it happens in the internal memory,,,,only flashing the ROM again to fix it. So.. if this function can "bug" the files inside ExtSD or internal memory, i think u can make it optional by default..i mean "fsync ENABLE" and if we want more throughput on R/W or files transfer we can choose knowing that some error in file structure can appear.

Not American (sorry for my english)

I cant post there (REDPILL post) cause i have less than 10 post :( . I know its my fault and i will try to help more (if i can).

Well..later^^

As the title suggests, which will u choose and why? My main criteria is for a bigger screen. I currently use s3 but I have no issues with switching to sense. I'm quite flexible. Thanks for your input!

P.s: currently using a s3 but want something with a bigger screen
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simone:
If I were to move to HTC Butterfly, that would be only for the screen.

Anything else, I choose the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 all over it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IsolatedAbyss:
I really like the design and aesthetics of the Butterfly/Droid DNA but that's it. Note 2 beats it in every single way. I read a rumour that HTC will be coming up with a successor to it (not the One) so I'm looking out for that hoping it's good enough to prise me away from my Note 2. I don't like Samsung but I'm using their phones just because they are that good.

@skade: Since you're already using S3, I think you're better off waiting for Note 3 if you want a bigger screen. S3 is still a superb phone and the Butterfly is only 2" bigger.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onslaught86:
Have played with both, own the Note for a reason. Butterfly has awful battery life and is, of all things, more plasticky than Samsung kit. Shame really.

Note 2 for the overall package

But I really thing 5 inch screen is big enough and I prefer the design of Butterfly over note 2.

If you don't care about hardware too much, go for note 2.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdapao3:
The HTC has an integrated battery and that's an instant deal breaker to me.

That aside, it has a much smaller screen anyway so if your main criteria are the screen dimensions why are you even considering that useless POS?

There is nothing else but the Note II for me, today. It has the most complete and the best HW and SW feature set.

I say choose Samsung. This is coming from an apple hater, but Android does influenced by apple a bit. Please HTC if you're gonna copy Apple, copy the good stuff. Not supporting sd card is a big no no for me. I like htc's design and sense but I can't bring myself to like them while Samsung is around. Yes I know Android nexus also doesn't support sd card but Samsung it's Samsung. ..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haplok:
Well, not every, no. Butterfly has significantly better CPU, vastly better GPU (hampered a bit by the higher resolution) and sharper screen. Arguably better looks too. But indeed, Note 2 scores in many fields other then the raw specs and in the battery department. Winning a side-by-side comparison of specs is far from granted though.

With mobile data on, the batter drains like anything.

The 3G coverage in my area is not so good and hence it switches continuously between H, 3G & 2G.

Can this be a reason?

If not this, what else can be a reason?

Is there any app that measures battey drain, mentioning the usage when data is on?
