Hey guys, just want to know opinions about this note. I own a samsung captivate for awhile and I loved it! Anyway this note kind of caught my attention and I just want to know whether it is good enough for me.

Well 2 or 3 questions here,

Is this note is good for video playback? I love movies and I do watch movies on my captivate from time to time but it is kind of small and like i said, note caught my attention. So basically I want to know, can this note plays mkv video format? I mean those 720p movies? Is it smooth?

Secondly in terms of browsing, I know the browsing is good on note based on the reviews on the internet, but I want to know how is the browsing experience when you have a lot of apps and data on your note? Based on my experience on my captivate, it is smooth at first but then it gets a little laggy after awhile, even with flash is on demand or off.

Im not so concern about the battery life as I can deal with it, anyway how about glass resistance? As far as I know, it is not gorilla glass as there is no official confirmation from samsung though few people claimed it to be. Anyway how is the overall smoothness of the phone after been using it for awhile? Would be nice if i get answers from users with many apps and thousands of messages on the note.

Would appreciate the replies, thanks!

Video playback awesome =) mkv video can play on note , but need install MX player i think . Ya , smooth .

So far i use stock browser , it's smooth but the features not too much like custom browser .

It's a corning gorilla glass .

If it could be download, where would it save it?
If there are apps that needed to be installed before i could download or upload, what is the apps called?

i'm not sure yours, some app just run on the background, wont show in the running task but it is running.. so better check what kind of the app that you installed.

Tested JBroid version of LA6 - has been on it past 4 hours . Excellent rom, comparable to Substancer LA4 and Rocket V21 but without those fancy tweaks to UI. As similar to Rocket V21 - temperature is much cooler than stock LA4. With phone being charged for past 2 hours it remains at 32-33 degree C only. UI is very smooth - and rom is tweaked further by developer script , he called it JBroid engine
I installed it right on top of Substancer LA4 without any wipe

The jBroid Engine works on the functions listed below: I quote

app2sd
optimization of the battery
boot the phone faster
cfs (in conjunction with power management modes)
cpu (optimization and responsiveness of the phone)
drop
efs (backup your file efs)
governor (in conjunction with the kernel)
graphic (improved signage and quality)
hotplug (improved connectivity)
kernel (kernel related)
memory (better management of ram)
perm
read (optimization of the SD card)
remount (better treatment data)
scheduler (in conjunction with the kernel)
sdcard (optimization of the SD card)
security (enhanced system security)
smoothloop
sqlite (best data processing)
tcp (improved connectivity)
screen (touch screen optimization)
vm (Dalvik tweaks)
zipalign

Uncle, which zip file did u use ? JBroid_XXLA6_Ed-2.zip OR jBroid_XXLA6_robert.zip ?

Majority of people here never encounter hang and lag before IF you know what you are doing and know how to root.

Just follow the tutorial below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...729&postcount=2

Long story, short: Flash to early firmware+root with mobileOdin on PC. And delete your mobileODIN. Then flash to any stock/custom ROM you wish with CWM on your rooted Note.

The S1 is a poor performance phone - I have used it before. Even I change to ext4 with voodoo and all cooked roms - it still lags. You cannot compare it with the Note. Like comparing a 3000 cc car with a 1600 cc car
The SI is the worst android phone I have ever used. See my signature what androids I have ever used before. Even my HD2 on Android outperform it

Root it and have CWM installed - do a nandroid backup . It is the best as it backup your rom plus all your apps/data/settings etc exactly as it is at point of backup. And restoring it will give you back exactly the state it was in

wanna know why its a big project? bcoz of it is a RM2299 phone. once kong, it will be the most expensive paper weight on ur desk. if it's a RM200... can buy 1, test and kong, throw away and buy another RM200 phone. Me myself, I read from the V1 until lastly decide to buy my GNote in Dec 2012. With the stories told, I bought 5-yr warranty as a precaution.

MKV format no problem at all on default video player. You can use other 3rd party ( free ) eg Moboplayer, MVideoplayer too or paid players such as VPlayer, VitalPlayer. It plays 1080p videos very smoothly too

Browsing is good : i have about 150 apps on my phone. You can always close your open apps if you worried about it - not an issue at all. But I never like stock browser - I use BOAT browser as my favorite follow by XScope and Dolphin,. Infact I used my Note for browsing 80 % of the time
