HTC are generally with better build quality n more solid/classy looking vs Samsung
These are more important features to some buyers

It is official rom . So no increase in flash counter n not modified
It is exactly same as updating through OTA
Intact chance you soft brick updating OTA through incomplete update is much higher than flashing yourself . The chance you fail through Odin is negligible

Mobile Odin need root to work
Difference with 4.1.2 posted several times. Do a search or Google yourself
Worth to upgrade I would say
Latest msian firmware is LL7 - search in sammobile under Malaysia
Battery drain is not an issue at all for me
It is not only due to firmware
Don't get confused by some users
Try yourself n judge it
No venture no gain

Welcome
We welcome too non users
As long as they don't post nonsense here or promote conflict with other phones or OS

That is in ver 4.2 only
Google these as you can install it separately
Ink effect enable it in settings - drill down the settings menu list to find it

I tested the galaxy charging current app with both my frequently used micro USB cables ( one from Nexus 7 and the other a old Motorola unit) , both gives me 1698 mA
I am so far very happy with my present charging setup using the USB enabled ipad charger. I used this same setup to charge my Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 too. I was warned that using a 2.0A output might damage my Nexus 4 battery but seriously I couldn't be bother about it

I just tested the 4.2 camera briefly - only main advantage is its photosphere function
I am just a simple basic camera user - the 4.1.2 version is good enough for me. I am a point and shoot guy, usually using the camera default setup
Photosphere taking need some practice and skill, I'd say
Here is Google video about the 4.2 camera

SlimBean, Hyperdroid, LiquidSmooth, AOKP based, CM 10.1, Paraandroid roms but all NO Spen apps
So far there is no TW based roms on 4.2.1. You wont get to see any until Samsung released ver 4.2

The original flip cover is not worth its price. It is exorbitantly overpriced and worse it is very poor quality - the edges will frayed off easily after months usage. Spend RM80-90 you can get even better quality from EBay

NO S Pen apps as it is a AOSP based rom with touches of AOKP/CM10
Read my reply post#2390 to you earlier

This is extracted from my 4.1.2 rom - use root explorer ( select RW) and copy the extracted apk file to /system/apps folder and restart phone

If this cannot work, let me know. I will upload instead my Titanium Backup files

Tap the small dialog box above RW n you can copy it over

Yes is similar to CWM nandroid backup. Advantage is in one single file while CWM is in 2 folders , a backup n obb folder. You cannot easily identify which is your backup if you have more than one backup done in the obb folder making deleting of any backup difficult

Uncle i cannot copy to apps folder. This extracted file is 'read only'.

Select n tap RW at top to copy . This will give you write over n other edit rights

Try it n you will never want to use CWM
Backup n restore easily 30% faster

Just use recovery mode n flash the twrp Zip. Check for download link at note2 xda thread
Or use free app goomanager. Launch it and at menu select install recovery script. Phone will download n install it replacing cwm. Restart phone

What is wrong with note 2 stock music player

Try asking for the apk at note thread
Did you try other player eg poweramp

Than try download the zip file and flash from recovery mode. Download latest 2.3.3.2 version
