Rooting is similar. CFW is similar. OFW both should receive similar respond from Samsung. So its a tie.....
Note 2 have advantage in 2gb ram, bigger screen and spen. But that's about it.

hmm.. i don't really care to use CFW TBH. I just want it to be rooted with OFW, sorely for titanium and SDMaid usage. Can't live without those 2.

So note 2 is easy to root ya?

I'm coming from s2/tabs.. i'm done with cfw

S2, S3, Note 2 etc. all can be rooted similarly. If u can root S2 than there is no issue.

Note 2 is going to be more future proof than S3 due to its 2Gb RAM.

Thx for the feedbacks. Tested one of my collegues GN2 and s3. The screen and batt won me over heh.

Oh yeah forgot to mention Note 2 batt pwns all others.

Absolutely !!!! Note 2's battery life easily achieves 4hrs++ Screen on Time when others go OMG.

that attract me the most !

Anyone tried 1 to 1 replacement unit from Samsung before?

So what are you waiting for ?
Get the Note2
Stop all the survey in the various threads
I can tell you easily 6 to 7 hours SOT n you need not do any extra stuffs
Getting 8 to 9 hours is common for me

full charge then everything in the battery menu will gone
once discharge your phone then got the other like SOT, apps, etc ...

lol then I also can say any colour can be spray on the white casing

seriously I don't try stock ROM anymore

no and is impossible

I got my phone like on Sunday and it can't connect to wifi. I've sent in the phone to Samsung today and asking for 1 to 1 replacement, they said need to check first. I believe it's an defective unit. Isn't there such policy that 1 to 1 item replacement as if the item defect in between a week?

Without a smartphone is really a pain in the ass. It requires 3 days for the inspection, so I'm thinking of asking a 1 to 1 replacement.

they only can help you check for problem, impossible 1 to 1 replacement
samsung not htc, if htc then can 1 to 1 replacement

I scare after all the fixes then the problem still persist and needa send back to them again. Waste of time. A defect device can never be fix in a 80% rate i can say.


Btw: I'm new to Android devices, used to be an i5 owner. I realize there's no 3g on my note 2 wherever i go. It appears sometimes for less than 1 sec and it gone off back to H. Is this normal? Or it's another connectivity issue on the phone itself?

Not normal if you are in 3G or H coverage.
I force my connection to WCDMA only and it captures these two types of connection all the time.
Of course no H+ because DiGi has no H+.

You cannot take apart components like wifi etc.. It all comes in 1 mainboard. So if one of it is defective they have to change the whole mainboard. So it will be like a new device except using back same casing and etc.

Some people have manage to get 1 to 1 after "singing" alot to the customer service but still have to subject to samsung management approval or something like that.

Why you want to see 3g? H is faster n better than 3g. I will be most unhappy if I see 3g instead of E, H n H+

Which means basically it's a whole new phone, why can't they change 1 to 1 =.= haih


I don't get what u mean. What u meant by not normal if you're in 3g or H coverage?

Normally my phone written H almost all the time. H better than 3g or 3g better than H ah?

yes H is better than 3g
H+ is the fastest

LTE > H+ > H > 3g > E / G
