[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bill720:
upgrade

Negative. Just got the Note2 several months ago and it's plenty powerful, no need to upgrade anytime soon; infact, it should last a good couple of years (unless this one gets lost or broken or a powerful slider gets released, that might sway me).

I think we're at a point where things are evening out, so it would probably be best that they (Samsung and HTC) return to a 2 year upgrade cycle (like what apple does) instead of releasing a new model every single year. The frequency dilutes the very nature of what makes a big release special and really makes it a whole lot less exciting. I mean, what kind of actual advantage is to be had upgrading from a Note2 to a Note3 or 4? Marginally better display, sound, and processing, but nothing groundbreaking like going from a Note1 to a Note2 or from a GS2 to a Note2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
I had the Note 2, a fine device indeed. Now, I have the Note 3.

Note 2 is noticeably slower and doesn't have Spark LTE. Spark is the real deal.

If the Note 3 had Spark, I wouldn't upgrade to the Note 4.

data speed

What's the difference in speed between "spark" and plain old regular LTE? I'm not even on LTE on mine and it's quick enough. Don't you think Gigabit cellular data is a little overkill anyway? I've only got 20Mbit cable at home, and that's fast enough for just about everything; I think there comes a point where "fast enough is fast enough", but that's just me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
At my home:

Note 3 Lte: 4mbps

S5 Spark LTE: 27mbps

I hotspot and download quite often. 20mbps during peak times is when I'll be happy.

I'll be upgrading because my phone is a bit jacked. Can't get it connect to 3G. I think they modem got messed up somehow, but that's another story.

Spark will be cool if it's in my area. Right now, from what I read, it's not, but about twenty miles away. There's theory of more speed, which would be nice. I usually getting around 5mb/1mb on LTE in my area. The other thing, apparently Spark is suppose to use multiple frequencies which should help keep it on LTE/Spark. Plus, I read that it's on the old Nextel direct connect frequency which actually better at penetrating buildings.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Spark is faster.

And because it is faster, Spark coverage is even more rare than Sprint LTE towers.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bill720:
signal and frequency

Wow, that's a bit greedy, dontcha think? I think that once we can all get 2-4Mbps down consistently during peak hours, then we'll be good (and I've been saying that almost since Sprint data speeds were less than .1Mbps down).

Sprint wasted no time in converting the service after dismantling the iDEN network last year. I know they have already widely implemented 1x800 in my area which vastly improves the usability of fringe 1xrtt signals. I can look on the Signalcheck application and see it picking them up all the time. From what I've heard, they've also started doing the same thing with LTE, so the signal penetration of that should be much better as well. Maybe I'll break down and spend the extra $20 a month so that I can try it firsthand someday :cyclops:.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
I don't think that's greedy imo. I think my standards should be higher than 2-4mbps in 2014.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] RayTrue04:
It's freaking LTE! You damn right your standard should be higher than that.. 2-4mbs on LTE is pathetic. If it works for that other guy good for him but no need to tell us what we should have or not have. I can't watch YouTube without it buffering like hell trying to play HD content. Even browsing gets slow on LTE. LTE on the 1900 band is unreliable and it's crazy that Wimax had better coverage on 2500. I'm in the middle of two towers and when it was just one that had LTE i would have almost full signal bars of 4G. Now that the other has been upgraded both my phones struggle to hold a steady 4G connection. Bring on the spark!

The better question would be.. Note 4 or Note Edge? I need the Edge! I like adopting new technology ahead of everyone else plus I really like it :cool:

---------- Post added at 09:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:28 AM ----------

Oh and my main reason to update from this Note 2 is because it lags and is not as responsive as it were back on 4.1.2, my battery is crap and this dumb mdm wakelock that drains me daily...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bill720:
deep philosophical reply

I'm still on MC2 myself and it's super quick and the battery lasts a long time. I don't think I've got any wakelocks holding me back either, but one thing I did find is that if I turn off data when I'm not using it, it'll save a lot of energy.

I never even try to stream HD through YouTube on the go (I think it automatically picks QVGA/WQVGA or "360p" by default anyway when I'm on cellular, so I don't even have to think about it). Then again, my plan includes no LTE, so I'm not downloading any faster than 2Mbps anyway (2.5Mbps tops). I'd like to think I'd be pretty content with 1.5-2Mbps consistently (every day, every place). Nobody should be getting 50Mbps if it drags everyone else down, especially on Sprint's notably fragile network. They say they don't throttle anyone, but maybe it would help in the long run.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
Wait!? You don't even have LTE and your commenting on what's greedy? I wished you would've stated that earlier.

If it works for you that's completely fine. However, you are not a power user and you can't subtly set standards for everyone else.

YouTube can automatically play HD content if you set it in settings.

I couldn't get by with 2mbs. Way too slow for me. Your point on 50mbs is valid. I can honestly say 12 download 5 upload 24/7 everywhere I go would be ideal and plausible.

How in the world can Sprint customers have an ounce of faith in Sprint Spark when Sprint STILL doesn't even have a good working LTE network after two freakiin' years???!!! Do Sprint users really think that Sprint will finally get their network up to the speed and reliability standards that pre-paid service provider currently offer? I have my doubts at this point! It just seems as if Sprint is just sitting on their @$$e$ and are not getting things done in a lot of places. I know when my wife and I buy our next home we are making sure we live within a few hundred yards of a Sprint tower or I'm not buying the house. I'm fed up if you can't tell. LOL
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] RayTrue04:
Well in my case my niece's lg g2 has been picking up Spark in certain places here and her device be flying so I definitely would love to have what she has. No buffering under spark whatsoever! And this device not lagging I don't buy it. It hasn't been as responsive after going to 4.3. Even the home button lags and sometimes bring up the recent apps list..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bill720:
speed

I'm not sure about the concise definition of "power user" but I do a lot more than the average Android user. I'm always reading email and browsing the web (the modern, bloated, HTML5 and Javascript ridden web), using streaming security software, and even watching YouTube videos. I'd say my usage is a step above the "average 15 year old girl just reading posts in the android social application". The Note2 and its cellular internet connection are essential tools for me.

I'm sure it can, but there's really no need to. I'm just thrilled that Sprint's connection speeds are finally fast enough to stream at standard definition.

With that kind of speed, you'd actually be able to reliably do BitTorrent almost as well as any other person with a standard cable connection to the internet.

Hi there!

I was wondering if it is feasible to port Firefox OS to the HTC One. Several previously android-based phones can run Firefox OS. The Kernel source is available, and we do also have S-Off IIRC.

Any thoughts on this?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fka:
it should be feasible, it is just a matter of skill and time ;) but if i am informed right, ff os is more intended for low spec phones, so i am not sure if anyone will port it soon...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarcoZHH:
Yes it is true that the initial markets and devices are targetted for low-end phones, but does that automatically mean that high-end devices can't run it? ;)

If I had the skill, I would port it myself, but since I don't, I thought I'd start by posting this question here if it's possible at all. ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fka:
I never said that high-end devices can't run it :confused: i said that due to the fact, that its targeted for low-end phones (so you won't get anything fancy) devs will more likely concentrate on more interesting subjects such as ubuntu touch e.g...

But lets wait and see what time will bring...im sure some day, one dev will be "bored" and start porting it ;)
