are you using maxis?

i find stock browser's rendering of some websites to be off... anyway, i'll take some screenshots later to show what i mean...

do you guys feel the same?

last time i was on stock browser. but after some time, i can't seems to select the text in lyn.

that's why i switched to chrome. haven't tried firefox though (i hate firefox desktop version. very messy layout)

anyone also has this issue? (can't select text in lyn)

just wondering, i tried both on stock and chrome

both does not really scale the text properly to the screen's width.. it just somehow zoom in randomly

both also got....tried bt not working

was playing around with the Galaxy Charging Current thingy...

noticed the following reading on my bedroom wall socket:
current_now: 1698
current_avg: 700
current_max: 700

i tested with office socket 1 (cable from box):
current_now: 1698
current_avg: 1300
current_max: 1300

i tested with office socket 1 (cable from yoobao -- but mine is a very long one)
current_now: 1698
current_avg: 1800
current_max: 1800

i tested with office socket 2 (cable from box):
current_now: 1698
current_avg: 1200
current_max: 1200

i tested with office socket 1 (cable from box) - 10 minutes later:
current_now: 1698
current_avg: 1000
current_max: 1000

i do wonder how accurate is the reading.... coz i noticed reading can change when you turn off power on the socket and then turn it back on...

or does that mean i have problem with my charger?

700 for home wall socket... meaning my wall socket is lousy?

haiz...

That happened to me, i wiped cache and reset phone and everything has disappeared . I am now stuck looking for something that can mount the internal sd card using UMS rather than the current MTP / PTP protocols ... why did samsung take away the UMS format from note 2 ..... sheesh

did not really notice anything.

check some settings in accessibility.

oh really have not use Firefox for quite sometime. but I remember it being smoother than chrome but chrome being more convenient to use.

checked but like nothing ba..

I am also in the same situation as yours. My PC room's wall socket will charge my Note 2 about 5 hrs time where as my master bedroom's wall socket will charge around 2 hrs and the current_avg value for my master bedroom is 1800mA while my PC room's is around 700 - 900mA.

I think the wall socket does play a role here..

Now u mention it, i also have inconsistent readings. I now doubt the accuracy of GCC app. Charging time seems to be consistent though. Or is it just me?

The apps basically read a file location in some system level directory and the file is from samsung

i didn't compare if the numbers match the real charging experience but your observation of inconsistent reading can be due to the way the connection is made from cable to phone and cable to charger (for the same charger & cable)

and current value is directly affected by the resistance of the cable

Those who studied physics will know the simple law

V = IR (V = voltage, I = current, R = resistance)

Since V is always constant (assuming your charger is stable), then an increase of R will decrease I and vice versa

And R (resistance) is affected by

1) copper wire length
2) copper wire width
3) copper wire material quality

So in short, you need to find the right combo of charger + cable to get highest GCC value

Cables are always the last thing people will look at when they want to put the blame on slow charging

Can somebody tell me why can't I create dumpfile using BBS? It's always empty txt file.

I do agree with you but the voltage abd current that go into the wall socket also should take an account. Cables from main distribution board to our wall socket does degrade though.

try the latest 1.12RC7 from xda

i am using Chrome too as it can sync the bookmarks from my desktop. Thus, it virtually make no difference for me to browse on my desktop, Nexus 7 or Note II, all having the same bookmarks.

Ok another boring screenshots of my battery life before I change to NEAK kernel to see how the battery life will go..

yes, voltage will drop in the phone cuz li ion battery in stable mode is 3.7V while charger output is 5V. So there is a step down circuit inside (Note : You can't charge the Li Ion battery directly 5V. That will kill off your battery). So it is not a degradation but any drop in voltage is on purpose

anyway, my understanding (can be wrong), voltage is something constant on all chargers and from my sample measurement of ori and oem charger, the differences in the output voltage negligible (from 4.97V up to 5.2V)

so the only variable between manufacturers are charger current output + cable spec & quality

actually the right term for charger performance is, its power output but i dont' want to confuse you guys further

bro

sorry i misunderstand you. you mean our wall socket, right?

that one i don't know but i thought since our wall can power up our TV, fridge, etc, charging a Note2 should be a piece of cake?
