QUOTE(ronaldlee007 @ Mar 21 2012, 03:48 PM) that's good to hear the good battery life. Your experience, from 7.15am to 9pm, consider total usage time above 6hrs? in apple, we can see the usage time. Android the same? Before i forget, can we lock a folder or individual apps? Is it free from market? Actually, i am new to Android system. Been using apple since 3GS, 4. Thinking to try Note. i think those who jump ship frm apple to android all cz of gnote.lol.(same like me.ip4 b4 note) i wnted to take 4s.getting their shitty review,i didn even think twice of getting a note.and trust me,u cn never go wrong with tht choice.bt mind evbody,i didn jump ship,just took a break nia.hehehe.bt note will always be my fav.serious.perfect phone with nice screen,smoothness,camera,music quality.all.la.

Been on ICS Midnote for two days, generally performance seems to be okay. Some minor issues: 1. Viber installs but not able to update contacts 2. XDA app hangs when click on any link, and force close
Anyone else have similar problems, and any solutions?

QUOTE(Shenay @ Mar 21 2012, 03:54 PM) rebooto, 2.5 days is very good leh ! I just like whatsapp a lot and fb&twitter(occasionally). finish charge at 6am, wifi till now, only 10% left ! I think i need to stop some apps or what is it ? I dont know peeps, how else do you guys save battery ? it says my display takes up 70% of the battery ! yep i was surprise myself...maybe sometimes its due to isp line condition also...if the line just from 3.5g-3g-2g occasionally then i think makan a bit battery from there also...lucky my house and office all full bar de. oh yea, maybe my battery still new so can last that long gua....i put on auto brightness so i think its better there. Shenay :- hmm that i really don't know...coz its like on and off 5 min here, 15 min there, then at home prolly 30min here and there...well i think should be close to 5-6hrs...i guess...erm duno there is an apps to calculate my gaming time or not....hehehe

3.5" for iPhone is going to spoil my eyes.Nevertheless,they have their good point.
5.3" is the only reason I take Galaxy Note.Nuff said.

QUOTE(Cynox @ Mar 21 2012, 04:09 PM) just curious - your CallerID functioning? (still not giving up on getting CallerID with ICS ROM on my stubborb Note.  ) Yes caller ID is working. Flashed with GAPPS that was released 4th March. Had a problem with importing contacts via saved vcf file. Also problem syncing calendar. Ended up using KIES to sync with outlook to import contacts and calendar.

Dual core more speed but in this case, the bigger battery compensate the usage time. I remember saw some forum with 4000mah. Is it available original from samsung? For me, battery life is important.. i don't want to get a phone and need to off all function to save battery. How much is the best price now?  Thank you
