People like new things. Example why everyone keep asking for 4.1.2 update and then when they got it complain about battery pulak. doh.gif

Thanks for the suggestion...
After i hav installed it, only found it doesnt work if the flip case is in dark color...
Im using Samsung ori flip case (grey) and it doesnt work for me...  doh.gif

Any other suggestion ? Or is it all the app that uses proximity sensor to screen on/off cant detect if the flip case is in dark color ?
*
here is the trick for dark flip case. Get a piece of masking tape or double sided tape and tape it on the flip case that covers the proximity sensor. It works with mine. laugh.gif

been thinking of getting either a Samsung Galaxy III or a Note 2.......

Just one thing bugging me is the size of the Note 2. While it's great for reading and browsing, i will probably need to carry it around in my handbag. Anyone can comfortably carry it in your jeans? i doubt so....

And why is getting a Note 2 better than getting a Galaxy III (apart from the drawing pen)?

Did any of you guys regret getting a Note 2 instead of the Galaxy III? Screen size really not much different i think...
*
I always carry my GN2 in my jeans' front pocket. No trouble at all. Not a single regret. Really happy with it. thumbup.gif

I don't understand why you are having what you called BDS, I'm on stock kernel and rom and rooted and I got no major battery draining. Well it consumes a bit more than 4.1.1 but not that much. I have tried with the perseus kernel too and the battery consumption on both kernels are just the same.

mine is also ADW Launcher Ex. really quite like it but this problem is bothering me. also, quite lag cry.gif  cry.gif

lag??? mine is so smooth, no lag at all....You can try Nova Launcher though. The only thing ADW is my choice rather than Nova Launcher is the random animation effects on the homescreen whereas for Nova you can only use one effect at a time.

here are tons of launchers for android devices
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Android_Launchers
But actually most of them are look so similar

IMO
The only special launcher is SSLauncher, free to customize
Fast and light - Nova and Apex
Cool launcher - SPB Shell 3D and TSF Shell
*
My favorite launcher now is Next Launcher...love it, so smooth and fast...

great recommendation. Rabbit launcher looks cuteĀ  blush.gif
tried launcher 8. same problem with ADW launcher. a little lag and keeps getting back to Touch Wiz.

I have tried Launcher 8 and still got no issue like you have mentioned. Yes, it is a bit lag but the latest release seems to be much better though...I always changing launchers in every few weeks, don't like to stuck with one single UI like those crapple phones.... laugh.gif laugh.gif

All in one stop about Note II http://grantbarker.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2.html
