If u have seen soya cincau previous works he have lack of expertise in photography and camera. Then the joke how can you compare a dslr sensor vs a tiny phone sensor like those crappy tiny sensor?

American Airlines buys 17,000 Galaxy Notes (Note 2?) for their flight attendants:

http://www.businessinsider.com/american-ai...ot-apple-2013-3

American Airlines owns 33,000 tablets and that's one of the largest corporate deployments, period. 23,000 of them are from Samsung, not Apple.

American bought 17,000 Galaxy Notes last fall. The Note is sometimes called a "phablet" because it's part smartphone and part tablet.

******
I suspect the writer may not know the difference between the Note and Note 2, since last fall would have been Sep-Nov, when the Note 2 arrived. Anyway, it's a major win for Android vs crapple.

Added to post #2 under Breaking News.

kevintth it was in Hangzhou, China.

sifu, i have rooted my note 2 as the following method.. XDA Newbie Guide..

1. Download all the files you need below! Galaxynote2root.zip
2. Make sure that USB debugging is on=> setting->developer options->enable usb debugging
3. Extract the download .zip file into a place you can access easily
4. Run ODIN...exe
5. Turn you device into recovery mode=> HOLD POWER+VOLUME DOWN+HOME
6.Connect your device to the PC
7. There should be a yellow box appear in odin, if not DO NOT PROCEED! Try restarting your phone into download mode again, and please ensure that you have usb debugging on and also have samsung usb driver installed in you computer.
8. Click on "PDA" and choose the file cwm6-root-note2.tar
9. Click start and wait for a few second.......DONE! You will now have a rooted device+CWM (What is CWM? Read first post) You're now not a NOOB!
10. Hit the "thanks" button!

However, when i want to boot to recover mode, it glitches and nothing appear... Should i redo it again using the files in Uncle benny's blog? If so, the counter will further increase by 1 right? So i can juz use triangle away to reduce from 2 to normal right?

Thanks.

My shots are different from his. I am just a point n shoot guy n I would say I am a better photographer than him. Something very obviously wrong with his xperia shots as I think he had adjusted the settings n not using default

Morning all.
5. Should be turn your device into download mode.

To enter your device into recovery mode press power+volume up+home button. Release the volume button once the samsung logo is out. I don't know what glitches you were talking about. Could it be bootloop?

Because he do not understand camera he donot know how to compare.

The main advantage of exmor sensor is not day light but low light he should compare that. Then to bring in competition he should use Nokia Lumia 920.

For zoom if you want to compare get the nokia 808 pureview with lossless zoom.

Wtf the sony dslr got to do with any of this? It shows he is unprofessional.

So his review are usually useless

Dear sifu, would you suggest any other newbie friendly link ? I saw that the OP for the NOOB Friendly link in post 5 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2055827 was last updated in December, and now lol4291 seems to have encountered a problem.

Should uncle benny's post be used instead?

Uncle benny's one is the chenglu method that so far have not had any issue. Even i first rooted my device using that method. The noob guide is using CF method. Frankly i have never used it but Chainfire is a very well known developer and i can trust him. Only thing is the noob guide is kinda confusing. It have a link in the middle of the post for different note 2 version and one more at the bottom for only 1 version. So people might end up flashing the wrong thing.

Just my opinion all the methods should be group together and users are advice to select their own. If one fails then just use another.

One more thing is i am wondering if the new bootloader is interfering with the rooting process as there is added security. hmm.gif Never heard of anyone actually linking it to the bootloader but only recently heard lots of fail rooting.

some of the sifu here got me inspired to try out smartphone photography...

just sharing results and hoping for feedback... of course there were lots of not so nice photos and just sharing what i consider as 'the best' of the lot...

had to reduce the photo size by 50%. can't seem to upload into LYN at 100% size. used irfanview to reduce by 50% but did not do any 'enhancement'. when saving back as JPG, just put to 100% (GOOD quality).
