Why upgrade to Note 4

I was waiting for Note 4 but there is for now no reason to upgrade. I Like the S-Pen but I was hoping that the note 4 will be waterresistent like S5 but it isn't so if I need a new Phone then S5.

Really I don't need Gear VR and no Gear S. And Pay maybe a 100 bugs only for the Metal around? No thats not worth.

Hope there will be an APP for the Pen Features.

I believe exynos variant is 64 bit, benchmarks are higher on exynos as well. Nevertheless as far as I know developers don't really like exynos due to its closed source nature
[Galaxy Note II General] alone again:
im not excited abt note 4, through i really like the metal bumper of the device. However, do anybody notice that note 4 use USB port 2.0 instead 3.0 :eek:
[Galaxy Note II General] svenM:
My thoughts exactly.

That's my feeling as well. A faster processor is nice, but I'm not really having trouble with a slow phone. a UV sensor is a bit meh, it's a nice novelty but not a reason to upgrade. The screen might be worth considering but I'm not really watching entire movies or taking that much pictures with it so I'll survive.

The main drawbacks for me are

- No water/dust protection like the S5

- No 64 bit processor for future proofing.

The edge seems like a nice novelty, but I'm afraid it won't be used by many apps.

The other phones like the Sony Z3, LG G3, moto X all have their own drawbacks (smaller screen, slower, ... ) so I think the note will have to be in service for a while :) It's just too good, so I don't have that much of a compelling reason to switch.

[Galaxy Note II General] singhpratik87:
That USB 3.0 was only helpful if you are connecting your phone to PC to transfer stuff between mobile and pc(USB 3.0 port of PC).When it comes to charging your phone several users of Note 3 mentioned that there was no difference in charging speeds when they used USB 3.0 or USB 2.0. Also samsung has implemented fast charge in note 4 which is supposed to charge the device 30% faster than usual.
[Galaxy Note II General] RandyKaoss:
My mobile contract is up for renewal so I'm getting the Note 4 as soon as it's released in the UK. The upgrades to the screen and camera are worth it alone.

Those people saying they need 4GB of RAM on a phone need to have a word with themselves. There is absolutely no need to have 4GB RAM on a mobile device. Even desktop PCs rarely utilise 4GB RAM at any one time (in "normal" use, obviously editing full HD/4K video or suchlike will require ludicrous amounts of RAM).

Similarly, the main benefit of a 64-bit CPU is the ability to address more than 4GB of memory space. Again, there's little benefit to having a 64-bit capable mobile device. In the end they just become numbers to impress your mates with down the pub.

My Note 2 still runs every app/game I throw at it with no slowdown or lag, and it never complains of being low on RAM, and it's *only* got 2GB :D
[Galaxy Note II General] shamiflavour:
true...current note 4 release have upset me because

1.missing 4gb ram

2.camera isn't 20 or 21 mp

3.missing dust proof water proof and anti scratch abilities

4.no major hardware updates its not 64bit cpu..while qualcom have announced one 810

5.missing nfc payment

6.not enough slimmer or thinner

and a lot to say but as i love note series so don't want to downgrade reputation
[Galaxy Note II General] hagba:
I've got my Note II the same released day, I skipped the Note 3, its so much configured that I don't think will get the Note 4 this time around again, or may be I will after a while when the prices drop substantially..
[Galaxy Note II General] mohssineait:
maybe i go with the note 4

especially with the camera and spen improvement
[Galaxy Note II General] romdroid.:
I got my note 2 in 2013, have no intention on upgrading atm but if there is a price drop I might go for the note 3 as there are no big diffrence to note 4
[Galaxy Note II General] websterzx10r1:
I will be upgrading from Note 2 to note 4. Wasn't that impressed with the note 3 software while I ran it on my note 2. Dropped my unlocked rooted note 2 Verizon sent me a replacement that ended my rooting days. Locked boot loader.
[Galaxy Note II General] Arktez:
Maybe i upgrade my Note 2 to Note 4. Note 3 not change very much complains to Note 2
[Galaxy Note II General] mattwang3:
2 years is long enough.

Agree with you, I was expecting 64bit and 4 gb ram.

But, i can't wait to get my hands on the VR Gear!!!
[Galaxy Note II General] wilu165:
I'm waiting for Note 5, N4 did not surpsrised me with his specs so I don't need to change my phone. Note 2 is still very good device
[Galaxy Note II General] websterzx10r1:
only way i would stay with my note 2 is if i was able to root it but my replacement came in with a locked boot loader and the guy who wrote the scripts to unlock it gave up with verizon devices. Hoping with the newer note 4 there will be a wave of developers modding them.
[Galaxy Note II General] wilu165:
That's true. Note 2 maybe is the last phone with that community support ever. In N3, N4 u got Knox and it makes so many problems.. Thanks to XDA, my N2 get second life (S5, N3 and maybe N4 features soon)

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piggoy:
Hi guys,

I own both a Galaxy S2 and Ace2. I have already installed CyanogenMod on the S2 and I am about to do the same on the Ace2 using an unofficial release. I have noticed differences in the procedure between the two devices and I would like to understand these differences.

On the S2 you first need to install a custom recovery (ClockworkMod) using Odin before flashing the Cyanogenmod zip. The reason for this is the stock recovery will recognise that Cyanogenmod is a custom ROM and will not permit it to be installed directly.

However on the Ace2 it seems that you can install Cyanogenmod directly from zip using the stock recovery. Does the stock recovery on the Ace2 not have the ability to recognise custom ROMs or does it simply not care?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadow252:
I don't know about recovery recognision but I know that installing Custom ROM on Ace 2 is easier than on S2. You just need to flash the zip with Cyanogenmod but sometimes Custom ROM's need newer recovery so then you must install temporary CWM recovery to flash that kind of Custom ROM.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coventrian:
Hello,

I've got a fake Xiaomi Redmi Note which has in fact a MTK6572 SOC on Android 4.2.2.

The problem is with one of the SIMs I use: in slot no.1 (WCDMA; unfortunately slot no.2 is GSM only) one of the SIMs behaves odd - when I put the SIMs in, the battery and start the phone - 3G internet works, but if I turn mobile data off and then want to start it again it's not coming back.

However, if I change the SIMs between themselves - the other SIM works fine when toggling mobile data ON/OFF.

The only solution to make mobile data available from that certain SIM is to factory reset the phone or swap twice the SIMs!

I would appreciate any advice.

Thanks!

Agree, HTC Desire is not some new High End phone and only few devs are using it. Driver port is not something easy to do so Desire with pretty much everything newer than Gingerbread sucks. And Android is now much much heavier these days(we can even say that Android 4 is 3 times heavier than GB).

I tried taking off the case and calling again, but got the same screen. Anyone know how to fix this?

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kraamerica:
I had this similar issue with a qi/nfc quick circle case, but my issue where calls coming in. All calls coming in with the flap open or closed, the call would come in under the quick circle option (the small ring) in every situation. I was using the browser and a call came in utilizing the quick circle "look". I tried battery pull and pulling case to no avail.

The data delete seemed to be the solution, but I can't be 100% certain as I did a data delete (from the application manager), took the case off, rebooted and then placed a test call with the case off. Voila. Success. I put the quick circle case back on and did a test call with the results being successful.

Thanks to suljo94!

[Android General] FreeWolF80:
Hello everyone, I'm just asking for clarification about the custom rom: currently own a Galaxy S2 which as you well know is equipped with a chipset Exynox for which have not been released the source for the drivers.

Because of this failure to release, the rom that have been developed for this device, and of course the future, even if well designed, will never be 100% compatible with your hardware, or better, will never be optimized properly. Example: The camera, which with a custom rom takes good pictures, yes, but not up to those made with the original rom precisely because of the lack of support of the drivers.

The latest smartphone out, however, (practically all) mountain chipset "snapdragon", produced by qualcomm that from what I understand has released regularly releases and the various drivers for its components. This means that a rom (for example Omni or Cyanogen rom, I do not mean rom based on fimrware original), developed for smartphones that use this chipset, is considered almost "native" as compatibility? Photo and video for example, will have the same quality as those made ​​with the original rom?

In short, install a custom rom on a device with snapdragon chipset, it can be optimized to be considered as if the terminal was shipped from the factory with this rom installed?

There is something wrong in my reasoning? I do not understand something?

Thank you in advance
