@@  first of all Note's screen is so gorgeous that i instantly forgotten the impact SGSII brought to me. animation speed also faster and looks better than SGSII. battery life no need to compare at all. but somehow the backcase is so heartattacking when u r trying to remove it. as Note's backcover is larger wif more hooks on it, i damn sked wan remove the back cover jz like SGSII. one big issue i dun reli happy bout GNote is some apps that i'm able to run in SGSII now cannot run in Gnote doh.gif

ah one more thing, today morning alarm solo failed me so hard that i was late to work  mad.gif  mad.gif

use es file explorer or root explorer that have root functions enabled.

agree with u..but i like the s2 smoothness.. scrolling's feeling i still feel nicer in s2..and colour banding problem on my note is quite obvious when opening the dark colour photos like black colour.. but the gorgeous screen really ichiban tongue.gif ... i dun use backcase..directly slot into the zenus flip up case lol.. save the trouble when need change the battery.. biggrin.gif

luckily i use my nokia old phone to wake me up.. i still have not try the note's alarm...

Added on January 9, 2012, 10:53 pmmy friend told me, his note occasionally will turn out become purple or blueish.. then after restart the phone, screen colour back to normal.. anyone facing this problem before?

hey guys biggrin.gif new here and i will receive my gnote soon, so i've been thinking about getting a case. i'm keen on getting zenus but not sure whether i should buy at maker4u.com or from zenus directly. any suggestions?

i bought from maker4u and received the case quite fast..less than 2 weeks..and the price i paid is cheaper than buying thru zenus directly... biggrin.gif

guise... i noticed when viewing photos or videos on the note, it looks really horrible.. (very bad noise at the 'dark' areas)

but after upload it's actually not too bad

is it the same for your phone as well?
*
mine too..especially black or dark brown or deep colours area..

Hi Hico, did you request for the express mail service (the more expensive postage?) I joined the maker4u as member and they are giving out either free shipping (normal postage) or free 2 screen protectors

I am thinking of buying two...one for me and for my fiance...and split the gift option...biggrin.gif

How's the quality of the zenus casing? good? i went to several shops to scout for the casing..and some of them are awfully made.... sad.gif
*
last month, they were giving free international registered mail service.. i think their normal postage is registered mail if i not mistaken.. so i used that free shipping .. the case i bought is not genuine leather..just synthetic leather ..but surprisingly the built is good and the case is nicely design.. it cover the camera lens as well..the only troublesome is when wan take photos, then need flip down the case a bit more. and a bit heavier.. but i am quite satisfy with it..however, if u are expecting genuine leather's quality, then look for other type and refer to their description.. the quality of my case is good actually but still cannot compare with the genuine leather which i bought for my other phone earlier.... biggrin.gif

they are charging usd4 for shipping right? thats last time when i check.. if u wan receive the case before cny, can option for express mail loh..or else a bit rush and too near to cny.. they took like 2-3 days after u make the payment then only deliver..

anyway, anyone knows how much a 2 month Galaxy Note will fetch in market -- comes with flip case & 2yrs warranty...

i'm generally happy with Galaxy Note but there are a few minor issues:
* i find Samsung's implementation on the Note to be clumsy. it feels rushed. lots of minor/ little quirks. having also used sgs2, i'd say sgs2 implementation is more solid.
* i'm one of those who appreciate big screen. but with Note, hard to do single hand operation --> i guess my hands are too small

i'm now thinking if i should try our Galaxy Nexus... stock Android... i guess it means less excess baggage in the RAM, etc... but 5MP camera... i'm one of those who rely a lot on phone camera...

oh well... see how.
*
i got the same feeling with u..if s2 got bigger screen display, i would think s2's first feel is so much better no matter in term of smoothness or software aspect.. i put the s2 side by side with my note, comparing the app loading time, slide from one page to another etc, s2 is much smoother and note is like dragging.. and temperature of the phone, s2 is cooler a bit compare to my note.. note can easily hit up to 42% although just surfing the web or just surfing the market..i did not face this in my ex-s2.. and the colour banding problem is so terrible in note.. but i cant let go my note yet..cos it is main to replace my older 5inch 'tablet'.. i used it as tablet and nor call.. sad.gif both got pro and cons..i just have to bear with the cons and enjoy the pro.. tongue.gif

ICS is just around the corner... hopefully it will remove the clumsiness. i really hope Samsung will spend some effort on Note, but i feel note is like a stepchild... develop for sgs2 first... then just use sgs2 codes and change a bit for note... that's how i feel anyway.

as for banding... lucky my eyesight not that good... can't detect any issues on my screen.

but surfing and viewing photos on Note... superb! big screen advantage... smile.gif
*
i can see it especially when the photos is dark or some part is dark black or dark brown..then can see the colour is not equal.. sad.gif note's size is nicely fit for tablet+phone use..not too big not too small.. and slim rclxms.gif
i am interest with gnex and 7.7 also..might wait a bit to see how it goes.. think of let my old 5inch phone retire tongue.gif but it is less than 6 months also ....technology move too fast.. doh.gif

Correct
Choose restore missing apps. Never choose system apps as it will overwrite new rom files
Choose system data if required Deselect all n selectively restore data only for certain apps eg touchwiz you can restore back your previous settings

is restore back the touchwiz restore back the widget on it as well?

how long did it take for your case to arrive? Currenly i checked my EMS and its been showing "With Airline" something along those lines since the 6 of Jan. and no updates after that, hence a little worried.

less than 2 weeks..i order on 19 dec and receive on 29 dec.. tongue.gif is EMS express mail? i only used normal registered mail.. which was free that time..

I charge the original battery inside the phone. I use this charger to charge the spare battery at same time. I have another external charger to charge the spare batteries too. Now I have 3 spare batteries - but never really need to use all of them yet

how long does it need to fully charge the battery?

let me give some opinion on that. i used S2 side by side with Note before.

On the UI experience, S2 is smoother than Note.  rolleyes.gif

S2 is noticeably lighter than Note.

S2 is sexier than Note.

S2 nicer to hold and play with.

Note's display seems "richer" than S2.

Note give u bigger "peep hole" during internet browsing, thus less headache.

Note makes u feel proud when u hold it. tongue.gif

Everything is just there in Note, just nice.

S2 is like "bumble bee", Note is like "optimus prime"

So, in conclusion, i sold of my S2, keep Note, coz Note is the leader of all smartphone out there. IP 4s can kiss my a$$.  laugh.gif
*
haha..i lov ur statement and comparison.. one of my colleague scold my another colleague a betrayer when he said he wan get s2.. i was like rclxub.gif when heard of it.. she is holding a ip4s and she said : aren't you said wan to get ip? really too 'loyal' to apple notworthy.gif
but s2 look nicer actually maybe due to it smaller size.. s2 should use as a smartphone, it is pretty+powerful.. but note should act as a tablet+phone...phone's function is follow behind ... tongue.gif

That is important for me. If Nexus was more superior or had a bigger screen than Note, I would still take the Note because of the SD card. That is why it's a no no for me on Ipon.
RM 90 is not bad. Not Prada quality but build material is fine.
You upgraded to 2.3.6? What program you use to open photos? Stock app for camera?
At the moment I'm using the Samsung original lip pouch and interchange it with PDair's VX1 slip pouch. I have the Samsung original flip cover. It's very slim but I've not used it extensively yet.
Can you test both at the same time? With another friend using Ip4 using the same telco calling the same phone number within few minutes of each other?
I use my old Sony Ericson charger that is 0.5A and it charges properly.

Do you what voltage and ampere the charger is charging? Perhaps charging current too low?
*
i use stock camera and camera zoom fx, stock gallery and quickpic..i am using 2.3.6 now..
