[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordLugard:
Verizon and Sprint are CDMA carriers and run on compatible CDMA frequencies and technologies (1xRTT, EvDO) and both their branded phones can roam on/off each other's network for both voice and data.

Having said that, the fact that they're primarily CDMA carriers means that you cannot just bring a phone onto their respective networks. The ESN/MEID of the phone has to already be in their database for them to activate.

So, taking a Sprint LG G2 and walking into a Verizon store or calling Verizon to activate it will get you a big fat NO, and vice versa.

Is it technically possible? Of course.

Worth the effort/hassle? No.

T-Mobile is a GSM carrier, no CDMA, so that's out of the question, same with AT&T, or any GSM variant of the G2.

Get a Verizon LG G2. Just keep looking carefully and you'll find a good deal.

I got my Sprint LG G2 mint in box for 325, clean ESN, no funny business. Love it to bits.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twill1987:
You can use Sprint LG G2 on Tmobile, takes about 20 minutes

In response to this assessment I have to correct these "facts"

You CAN use Tmobile's network on Sprint LG G2 Variant. See Younggunners forum on Sprint-Tmobile rom.

I am currently getting 4G speeds at around 14 mb on the down and 4 on the up, very workable.

I can attest that it works; I have also performed the flash on other sprint LG G2 LS980 Variants as well.

I am using Justin's rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2639165&page=11,

It's an awesome stock experience!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] staticx57:
I think you missed what he was saying. He was saying that the T-Mobile and ATT variants do not support any CDMA so they will not work at all. The sprint variant supports Verizon CDMA but verizon will not activate a sprint device on their network. In any case the sprint device does not support Verizon LTE bands. Even if Verizon activated a sprint g2 on their network it would be 3G only.

INTRODUCTION

Been having fun using the Google Key Lime Pie keyboard?

This is something I came across accidentally earlier today and I've noticed that I couldn't find any sort of thread or discovery of this recent addition but please forgive me if this was already found.

Because as you may know, the Google Keyboard always had a hidden theme chooser in a app activity called the "Android keyboard Debug settings" but it appears that this section was quite recently changed.

I personally wanted to go back to ICS keyboard myself and as I knew this secret so I took a visit to the intent which previously to me had options for themes such as, Stone (Normal), Stone (Bold), Gingerbread and Ice Cream Sandwich.

But I was surprised as I hit theme because the default (selected) selection on our 4.4.2 OS was named KeyLimePie (after the original 4.4 android name)

Currently I have only one device at hand so I cannot confirm the legitimacy of this but my setup is as follows :

- Latest Google Keyboard Version

- Standard Stock Based 4.4.2 KitKat based ROM build

- Device : Hammerhead (Nexus 5)

How-to.

There are two methods I'm aware of accessing an activity of an application, however to make it easy I will show a simple method which is possible due to one of our beloved launchers.

For this method I will Use Nova Launcher's Activity list.

Simply

1.Install Nova

2.Go to homescreen.

3.Long press screen, select Shortcuts then activities.

4.Go down to Google keyboard and select the Debug Options

It appeared for me too, funny that. Funny find
[Nexus 5 General] sewer56lol:
It's just one more piece of evidence 4.4 WAS KeyLimePie.

[Nexus 5 General] TheArc:
What exactly happens when you switch the theme to key lime pie?
[Nexus 5 General] sewer56lol:
Key Lime Pie is the default theme you have selected when using the Google keyboard, I had this written in the introduction. I had my keyboard theme just switched when taking the screenshot.
[Nexus 5 General] farsight73:
May be it's for 5.0 version..
[Nexus 5 General] sewer56lol:
I'd doubt that, android versions generally release in and about each year of difference and KitKat is still quite recent. Also they followed the alphabet as follows. Donut>Eclair>Froyo>Gingerbread>Honeycomb>IceCreamSandwich>Jellybean>KitKat (Originally called Key Lime Pie)
[Nexus 5 General] alen1901:
If you decompile google keyboard you will notice couple of lines there in xmls (gb for gingerbread, ics for icecream and klp for KitKat - i would say google was lazy to correct this stuff. Nothing to see here really, its just a name missmatch, common for google. :p

The differences I see are that ICS has blue accent color, KLP has white accent color and GB has orange accent color.

[Galaxy Note II General] Tombias:
HTC's update policy is much more worse. Samsung is doing the best job on updating older devices than other brands.

So I thing you will be disapointing over and over again unless you buy every two years a new phone.

Updates are nice but not a must for me.
[Galaxy Note II General] sora9009:

---------- Post added at 08:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 PM ----------

now i have 2 s-note apps on my phone...why samsung just not replace the old app.
[Galaxy Note II General] Pezmet:
Well you can get the app from Samsung App store.

Since the new Note 3 Neo will come out with similar Note 2 specs screen and with all note 3 features and lower price, i would not really bet my money that the note 2 will get those features.

If we will ever get them they will be in the kitkat update along side with the new TW interface, sometime late December 2014.
[Galaxy Note II General] Bert.C:
Fixed that for you haha!!
[Galaxy Note II General] Pezmet:
There are some issues with the update.

Notes from older versions can not be imported and opened.

As mentioned this does not update the older version that can not be disabled under settings/apps.

I hope they will fix this in a future update though i doubt it.
[Galaxy Note II General] asterisc:
I've found another issue. After update, there are both versions of s-note simultaneously. In multi window, there's only old one. But if you'll open new first, and add an app from multi window, the new one works with another app.

Thanks anyway.
[Galaxy Note II General] Tombias:
So you're note 2 isn't functioning anymore because it's still on 4.1.2????

I think you over react.

I can advice you to sell all you're samsung products and leave xda.

But I can al so remind you of the choice to choose a custom rom. There are lots of them even with Android 4.4.2.

Your choice.
[Galaxy Note II General] eng_samy:
I'm not over reacting ...i'm talking here about customer experiance..if you don't care if your manufacture lie it's your problem...Damsung promised to roll out update to all customers before the end of the year..now they offer to some customers only which i call no respect to their customers....for example Apple roll out the updat in one day to the whole world....this is ecactly what differ between brand and other...customer experiance sir

I couldn't find it through S-Suggest. I am on Verizon with the jellybean update though, is the new note maybe just not available for this variant yet? Anyone have the apk?
[Galaxy Note II General] eng_samy:
anyone please share the APK of the new S Note since we don't find in Samsung Apps store or it may be locked on some regions
[Galaxy Note II General] charles_alexander:
Ok, looks like you have to go to apps.samsung.com and install the Samsung app store from the apk there. When I did, it said my phone already had the Samsung app store but that it would replace it with a new version (the old version never showed in my apps list before, only s-suggest.. so if I already had it it was hidden somewhere...).

Soon as I installed it it started pulling in updates, waiting to see if it gives me the new s-note. I'm on Verizon fwiw

Edit: it didn't pull in the s-note update..

I have already Samsung app store installed on my mobile...but when i can't find S Note one the store

samu you have to look for it on the search bar above , it's early to update it look at the feedbacks of the apps at the app's page :)
[Galaxy Note II General] charles_alexander:
What did you search for to pull up the app page? "S note" "snote" and "s-note" don't find it for me :/
[Galaxy Note II General] djazeiry:
just write snote on the search bar , and look a little bit below :) , you'll find it
[Galaxy Note II General] charles_alexander:
"snote" only finds the Samsung s note viewer and a trademark infringing snote app from YJ, Hang.

But the weird thing is it says "3 results" while only displaying those two... gotta love Samsung.
[Galaxy Note II General] djazeiry:
write "SNote - note, memo"
[Galaxy Note II General] Linuxx84:
Someone could upload the apk? I haven't installed Samsung Apps.
[Galaxy Note II General] kaimyns:
Crazy new S-Note situation. To sum up, now we have this:

1) two S-Note apps;

2) new S-Note doesn't recognize old notes, it just crashes;

3) old S-Note doesn't have a good sync with google drive, evernote, though it is listed as available; new S-Note syncs with evernote, but this is not good for me, as I only use S-Note app as a quick S-memo;

4) no popup note, when you take out your s-pen in the new S-Note app;

5) bad design decisions in the new S-note app, it's just unattractive.

It really reminds me of android 4.3 update, which was half full (or half empty).

I have tried the new snote on my Note 2

Setup:

- To install it upgrade firmware to 4.3 and go to Samsung Apps, search "s note" app, 38.34 MB

- Old snote is kept to run separately with new snote

Strong points:

- Nice interface

- Add new selection mode function to edit graphic objects and texts

Weak points:

- Missing productivity tools to draw shape match, formula match

- New snote can not open old snote file (.spd file format instead of .snb), if open old file format it will crash

First off, i'm not a noob to flashing roms, only on my SGS3. My other phone is a rooted HTC Inspire 4G running Jellytime 4.2. Ok, down to my problem. I've been on my stock rooted rom since i rooted it last year and have not attempted to play with roms until recently. So yeah, I backed up all my apps and system data before I flashed omni rom and superSU for the d2att SGS3 i747. After flashing and setting phone back up, i realized that ALL my backups were completely gone from titanium backup. It said the backups were never made What did i do wrong?? Was there a step i missed in order for my backups to transfer over to new rom on the SGS3? Is there a special way to set up titanium backup for the SGS3?? Thank god i still have my nandroid backup in rom manager. PLEASE HELP!!!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BCSC:
In Titanium press menu button and select preferences. In the next menu select default back up location. You will have a button here that says 'detect'. If they exist on your phone or SD card this will find them. Have you searched in both sdcard/ and sdcard/0/? In the future you can set the default location to External SD which will save it incase of a need to full wipe. TiBu also does have a feature to restore from Nandroid.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CaptnCaveman:
If I set up titanium backup w/ dropbox for my backups, will that be better than sending my backups to SD card and risk losing them again?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BCSC:
I have never tried the Dropbox option, but in theory it should work. If it does work, it would be better to have it off device, and you should be able to schedule it to auto backup whenever you want.

After a restore from X-Note backup, with TWRP, anytime I start the phone I get "FACTORY MODE IS ON" and need to copy the EFS files from a backup I'd made at the begining (tar.gz) to the EFS on the root and it works properly.
