[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] eL_MeXiCaNo:
So i've used this rom for a while with both 2,0 and 2.666 (clean flashing on both) and I get the following bugs/ that stand out

I am on t989 with UVMC6 and on AT&T

1)The voicemail is wacky, it would alert/notify me of a new voicemail every once in a while even though I already knew I got it. Once I checked the voicemail the icon wouldn't go away until I got a new one but it happened with every other voicemail. I havent gotten this bug with 2.666 yet.

2)Missed calls, always getting alerts/notifications on them until I open up the Phone app and look at the call log. Real annoying when im asleep and I get a missed call and my phone would beep like if I got a text every minute. I'm not that popular xD

Never had these issues in any other rom, just in this one in both versions.IDK if this is common or if i'm the only lucky one to experience these
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
thanks for the bug report never heard of the likes... I 'd throw that demonik beast in the ocean hahaha

I am on t989 with UVMC6 and on AT&T

= your problem this one here is for Canadians or telus users.,.,.,.,. you are near Mexico I am guestimating

just give it a big sip of coffee phones need drink too.

JK :cool:

you might should stick to a skyrocket rom... but thanks for trying mines out :highfive:... I have a new kernel coming out and its got way more bugs than you shake a stick at. these bugs are growing bugs faster than you can smash'em. long story short it ain't getting any better

I never mix light and dark liquor for the same reasons.

Running great since the day you made it! Great job!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] eL_MeXiCaNo:
Bahahaha you should add that as a warning in the main post "Using this rom on non canadian/telus territory may result in Demonic Possesion like symptoms. If this should happen grab some holy water, the exorcist, thor's hammer, an iPhone/iPad to smash (as a sacrifice) and vanquish the demonic beast back to the underworld.... Or just use TWRP to flash another rom of mine :D"

Alright, i'll just flash another rom, lesson learned, Never use any roms made for telus/canadian users. Most of your other roms that i've used were stable though, that's why I found this odd.

Oh yeah I forgot 1 more bug. The camera would stop working, no app would be able to use it until I restarted the phone. It happened on 2.0 but I havent had to use the camera on 2.666 yet. I'm pretty sure I was the only one who experienced it though xD

Also, can you add the "remove shutter sound" option to the camera menu? Just thought that people would like that feature
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
I'm thinking official 4.1.2 doesn't play well with radios not made for it....the new tmo for tmo roms, and the new Telus radio for Telus. And using the opposite countries radio may result in odd behavior!

Thanks for Understanding. its difficult to know at this point (somewhat early in the JB era) what is compatible or not .. its possible with science and time though.... A = A

Oh and by the way I hate to bother you all with a new release coming soon for the TMO Version UVMC6 including over-clockable to 1836 MHz and Updated to latest Linux 3.0.78 =] compatibility with the T989D is ?... any testers?

[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
Hey guys, I took your advice and tried to make my own phone case out of recycled paper, it's still a beta but feel free to give me suggestions about how to make it stronger or make it fit the phone better. This is attempt number 8 and took 3 days to make. I have plenty ideas about how to decorate it and will be making more. If anyone here actually knows someone that produces cases cwn you please tell me about them because even if my cases are a failure, I still have good ideas about design, Thanks!!!

Edit: I made it more secure by adding another layer on the back and on the front. I also added a ring around the front so you can just hold the phone by the case and the phone won't fall out. Pictures are coming shortly after I decorate the back.

Edit: I finished decorating and now the pictures are being uploaded. If anyone wants a case made just pm me. This is beta 10.

Edit: Ok guys, the last case was a bit dull I'll admit that, so for the first "stable" it's going to be bright and funky, so keep your eyes peeled!!!

Edit: Ok guys, stable 1 "starburst" is officially complete, look for the colorful pictures below!!!

Edit: As a request I made a case with bubble wrap, it went pretty well but it's prone to bursting when dropped, going to do drop tests with it on with my actual phone inside, stay tuned and don't forget to rate the thread and subscribe!!!

Here's the drop test video, if you want more just ask. :)

[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
Ok, bad response

Ok guys, that was a bad response, so, I'm asking you guys out there for inspiration for my next case that people might buy. My friends want to buy the starburst one but I guess that doesn't float you boat if you're not colorful so why don't you toss a few ideas my way and share this page with your friends!! Thinking of making a charity case that costs a little extra but most of the profits go to charity if not all. Other than that you're buying a case to support me by buying me more supplies and hopefully a new phone to make cases for.

[Nexus S Accessories] minifromage:
well, ideas huh...maybe you could incorporate some bubble wrap or styrofoam? aha best i could come up with, and that's only because i have a bunch of it in my room.
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
All feedback is appreciated and I was thinking of doing it with bubble wrap too! Thanks for confirming someone might want it, will start production tomorrow and hopefully the end result will be up in 24 hours.
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
Sorry guys, I got a ton of homework that I didn't expect so look out for the bubble wrap case within 3 ~ 4 days.
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
Ok guys, about to add the bubble wrap to the case, ship you want any designs on the inside because it's just white paper so far. Edit: no replies so leaving it white
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
Ok guys, anyone that sees this Can you Please tell me if I should do drop tests with the bubble wrap case and video them? I'm only asking this because if I do it and break my phone in the process and nobody watches the video, if would have been a waste but if I broke my phone and people did see it, at least people saw it. And if it doesn't brake, all the better!
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
Got no replies again, I am lonely here, but did a drop test anyway, uploading shortly, enjoy :)

Well um, it took me roughly two and a half hours to make it and I'm 14, why do you ask? And on a different topic, I think I found a way to make the outer shell hard so I'll be making another one soon :)
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
Hey guys, I accidentally uploaded the video to the wrong channel, can I move it to another without losing views and likes and subscribers? Thanks.
[Nexus S Accessories] minifromage:
hmm it looks alright, and it did give good protection, but maybe bubble wrap might not be the most durable of material to use, seeing as how the bubbles popped. Maybe you could somehow reinforce the bubble wrap with some of that paper you used before?

And I gotta hand it to you for having the guts to do this with your current phone. I mean, even I cringed a bit when it hit the floor, and I'm watching a video.
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
I was just as scared as you, probably because my dog was right there and i thought he was going to eat it. And yeah, I have a new idea for a case and if all goes well, in 3~4 days, you'll see a 6 foot drop test!!!
[Nexus S Accessories] ej8989:
Characteristics of a good phone case: (Based on my day-to-day observation on what people use, and also based on my personal opinion/preferences)

1. Slim (as thin as possible)

2. Minimalistic/elegant design

3. Grip-friendly

4. Ease of access to buttons/jack/etc..

5. Perfectly fits the phone

7. Scratch/shock-resistant. (eg. TPU cases)

8. Spill resistant (can be washed/wiped easily)

9. Fade resistant colors (paint/coating)

I hope that helped.
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
I think did, and I have an idea for a new one so stay tuned!!!
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
Ok guys, I'm sorry to announce that there well be a shortage of cases for about 3 weeks as my exams are coming up and I have to study. There will be cases but not as many per week as there used to.

[Nexus S Accessories] kartik.kayz:
Its a good idea i will definitely try to make one. To make it more reliable i think you have to use some kind of natural resin. Or something like fiber glass cloth to make it more tough.

I like my phone's case, it's an actual samsung gummy case, I've dropped it several more times than I care to admit and my phone shows no sign of my clumsiness.. My wife wants a new case as hers was a cheap plastic with a leather surround and it broke the first time she dropped it, the case not the phone, but she thinks the gummy case looks too adolescent?.. .. I would be interested in getting one,(finished product) assuming that the price is reasonable, and if I can get a proper photo for my wife's approval.. :)

Cheers
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
That would be great!!! Does your wife have any particular design she would like. Pictures or words or whatever, see the first post for examples. :)

Plain, black, small (not too bulky)..

Thanks for the info, as a precaution, would it be OK if the inside was sponge? Just in case she doesn't like that?

Foam rubber?
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
No.... sponge, as in actual sponge. :)
[Nexus S Accessories] Setting.Out:
Give it a go.. :) It's not going to degrade and get all over the phone?
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
No, probably not, I'll have to make one for myself first and test it. You'll be the first to know when it's ready :)
[Nexus S Accessories] superng888:
Is it still in progress? :D
[Nexus S Accessories] TechMitchell:
Yep, if you call gathering supplies progress, and the fact sponge is very hard to cut, and I have development work now, so work on the case will have to lessen in the mean time, but I am still working on it :)
[Galaxy Note II General] akuma2012:
So after having a good look at the specs and reviews of the gs4 ive come to the conclusion that in many ways moving to the gs4 would be a downgrade from what I already have. After all, the note 2 has a bigger battery, bigger screen, SPen the things that really matter.

I have a 4200mah battery which keeps my note II operational for 2 days heavy usage, everything on, screen on full brightness. 4g isnt really cheap enough to be worthwhile in the UK, and if im not mistaken , there is a 4g version of the note II anyway which will be cheaper than the s4. Ive read that the s4 has dissapointing battery life, something which is crucial to busy men should as myself.

In a way in think that the note II is the pinnacle of perfection for current samsung smartphones ( and all other smartphones period) This is somewhat a double edged sword for samsung as it seems the note line is going canabilise their s line ( reviews of the gs4 seem quite luke warm)
[Galaxy Note II General] Elvecio:
And you're completely right!

[Galaxy Note II General] Albinoni:
Ive got the Note II myself in titanium grey and absolutely love it and let me be honest here I'll rather it over a S4 any day, I'm not saying the S4 is a bad phone definitely not and I'm sure alot will prefer it over the Note II and vice versa. Ok the S4 has the 1080 p display but to me the screen on the Note II is just as good if not better due to its gorgeous size which I love. Plus the functionality of the S pen like what you said. Ohh and battery life on this thing is purely amazing
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.m0x:
Yup. S4 is a nice phone but it can't even offer much to anyone who already has an s3, let alone a note 2. It's really getting to the same point as personal computers - advancements are still happening but they aren't as frequent and drastic as they once were. Heck even the venerable s2 is still a solid performer when you stack it up against the latest phones and it's two years old now.

[Galaxy Note II General] azeter:
perfectohhhh.....
[Galaxy Note II General] akuma2012:
I still have a s2 lying around somewhere as a back up, runs jellybean beatifully. Its true raw computing specs are becoming more and more irrelevant , and I heard the note II will get some s4 features anyway.

Very interested in what the note III has to offer however. :cool:
[Galaxy Note II General] tuxonhtc:
For me personally, S4 is a downgrade in every respect. I have perfectly adequate specs even if I plant to underclock my N2, the battery life is the best etc. And unless I'm going crazy, I find N2 screen significantly better to S4 (I don't put my screen under my microscope anyways :P )

Personal preference, but as I've said countless time before, if you bought Note 2 like I did for the size, battery life and S Pen, no way in hell is S4 an upgrade. Like S4 though, would love to just play with one :P
[Galaxy Note II General] xwonic:
Its lke the note 2 is the improvement of galaxy s3 so it will be note 3 for s4
[Galaxy Note II General] praveen22:
I won't buy S4 over note 2 either. For someone owning S3, it might be an upgrade, though not a significant one. I am looking forward to note 3 though. I hope they won't increase the dimensions significantly. Am not a fan of aluminium body either, which is rumored for note 3. It increases weight. I buy a case for my device, so looks doesn't matter to me. I am fine with plastic. And rumor has it that screen will be plastic instead of glass. So it will thinner (more space for battery) and lighter. I hope the later is true, but its likely to be the other way round.

[Galaxy Note II General] tuxonhtc:
Yeah those are just rumors. Won't happen. Samsung has clarified that aluminium is not practical for them with mass production and everything. And that's a good thing IMO - although not a dealbreaker, I don't like metal phones at all. Your hands get hot like crazy leaving you with sweaty palms, or you'll have freezing cold phone. Above all, easy to dent/scratch than plastic and hard to remove too. Regardless of their motive, thank god that Samsung isn't falling for the "cheap plastic" criticism and switching to metal.
[Galaxy Note II General] gandalf21502:
I would not 'upgrade' to a S4 over my N2...N2 is just to awesome. The N3...maybe depending on what it has to offer, but that is my next possible upgrade.
[Galaxy Note II General] Sharp-Razr:
The Note 2 It Is

I am not the least interested in the SGS4.

My Note 2 stays with me at least till the Note 3 comes out in 6-7 months. Also, the Note series are better specced phones compared with the S series.
[Galaxy Note II General] zkyevolved:
I like the S4, but not enough to get rid of my Note 2. I do believe though that the S4 is a VERY good phone! I'd recommend it to anyone else who doesn't have an S3 or Note 2. Anyone with an S2 or any other device would fall in love with it! Heck, it made me even think about trading in my Note 2 for it ^.^ But it's not going to happen ;) hehe. I love my Note 2. But that doesn't make the S4 any worse though! It's still a GREAT phone!

I won't be getting the S4 either. The ONLY reason though, is because of screen size. Everything else on the S4 is a definite upgrade! Had an S4 for 3 days and I loved it. Amazing screen.

The device I have considered switching for though, is the LG Optimus G Pro.

One month ago I buy the Note II so I'm not going to replace it for the S4. Plus, here in Ecuador these cellphones are not cheap and we dont have 4G here so buying a new phone for $1000 is not in my plans
[Galaxy Note II General] dsims7_2000:
You are lucky, where I live in the states, I don't have 4G (WiMAX or LTE) and it will be another 2 years before I might see LTE? Cost to me was $747.00USD off contract, but you can get cheaper now?

Still, I will get Note III when time comes, 4G or not!

[Galaxy Note II General] sohebq:
So after thinking deeply for 2 weeks, checking reviews and everything, I have finally decided noooo for s4, I will keep my note 2. I wanted to shift to s4 but the major 2 reasons why I won't are:

Price decrease:

Currently Note 2 is selling here @ 570 $ of new and I can sell mine with 7 months warranty @ 450$. So I will first receive a loss of around $120. Secondly S4 is available here @650$ so to get s4, I need to spend a total of $200 now. If I get S4 now and till the note 3 release, the price will easily drop around $100, so till note 3 I will be actually spending around $300. Note 3 will be around $750 so $300-$350 from note 2-s4-note 3 is a lot of money, I will keep my note 2 and will buy note 3 and this way, I will only have to spend around $250.

4.2 update:

Soon there will be a 4.2 update for note 2 and I am sure it will bring a lot of features from s4, so I will be having some taste of s4. I am just expecting that note 3 will be an epic device, so better wait 3 months.
[Galaxy Note II General] luigi90210:
I wouldnt buy the s4, if someone gave me an s4 i wouldnt turn it down, but when i was at the tmobile store buying my phone, i had the choice to buy a s4 or note2 for the same price($150 down payment and $20/month @ 0% apr) and i got the note 2 because of the larger screen size
[Galaxy Note II General] Haplok:
For me it doesn't feel... substantial enough. It's too light.

After holding the Note 2, the S4 feels like a toy in your hand.

Plus the plastic texture is even worse this time around. Note 2 Titanium Gray is far more elegant.

But with an aosp rom you lose the amazing 2-days battery life.

[Galaxy Note II General] tuxonhtc:
True, but I'm not sure how AOSP would fare on S4 too, by the way. I mean Touchwiz is still perfectly optimized for Galaxy devices, so I still think probably Touchwiz users would get better battery life over AOSP.

Not to mention you could still get around 6 hours screen on on Note II - which you wouldn't probably get on S4 without power saving options and all that. But that's just a wild assumption.
[Galaxy Note II General] AlluXX:
Here in Finland Note 2 lte costs around 550e and s4 699e so there is no thinking twice which one to buy. I bought Note and for first time in my life, i feel everything is in there.

Well batterylife could be little better but for now only thing i would buy next is Note 3. Forgot to say I found flipcover that has 4000mAh external battery for 35e so if that works fine, we have greatest combo ever. :p

My S3 can achieve that, but what with all those unnecessary battery draining "features" the s4 might not fare as well.
