NOTE 3 will come in 4 options? Why Samsung had to make it so complicate for users. Won't such a strategy will increase their cost? http://phandroid.com/2013/07/08/galaxy-not...variants-rumor/

QUOTE(Gwiyomiz @ Jul 9 2013, 04:04 PM) A 5 inch screen size is my limit,any larger and i might as well just use my ipad mini,i have seen people saying that s4 features are better than the note2 but battery wise note2 takes it all the way,but you as a note2 user,how you find it? Your requirement already give you the answer. Note2 is too big for you Personally I will consider note2 over S4 anytime. Whatever additional stuffs on S4 is gimmicky n worse it doesn't work 100% well. Only good point of S4 over note2 I see is just nicer display. If you want S4 get the 32gb LTE i9505 n not the 16gb i9500 as usable space only 8gb for you to use

QUOTE(Matrix @ Jul 10 2013, 09:07 AM) I would prefer screen size...S-Pen i dont think will use...even my wife also never use the S-Pen...but she loves the Note 2 writing chinese characters in messages using finger only...very fast and accurate!!! No need to do the "han yu pin yin" crap. I wonder Mega is as good as taking notes (in terms of response)...i write English only...tried on Note 2...very good response and accurate! Mega can never match note2 accuracy , smoothness, efficiency in note taking as it lacks a stylus. NOTE2 stylus is not those normal stylus n design to work with Note2 only. It will never work on any other touchscreen phones Using a normal stylus on mega writing notes is as good as not even doing it. Is equally bad as other touchscreen phones except possibly upcoming xperia Z ultra This post has been edited by benny888: Jul 10 2013, 09:27 AM

(aosp rom) That is strange It will always work in ALL my androids including Note2 Doesn't matter what Rom or kernel you are on Is a simple one step process Than you either flash zip file in recovery or extract the img file out n use mobile Odin to flash it

QUOTE(joytest @ Jul 12 2013, 09:36 PM) I think it should be sufficient since the CPU is beefy enough, and for 1.5Gb it may end up with a slight lag on heavy apps, but otherwise I believe it is fine. Absolutely no problem. It is not even a problem in first place

QUOTE(spitrix @ Jul 13 2013, 06:24 PM) Sorry sorry. I noticed that there is a folder named "clockworkmod" that's taking up 2g of my internal memory. I was wondering whether it is possible for me to transfer that folder to my sd card to save some internal memory space. Yes you can Next time choose external SDcard as backup point

QUOTE(iamKiet @ Jul 14 2013, 09:08 AM) I use dock for my xz. Bluetooth for headset. SD/Sim flap I don't think we always open it. So where's the repeated opening & closing? Btw,I used M.Defy which had flaps too. After 2 years of opening/closing of the usb flap,it was still waterproof  too bad the phone was unlucky being knocked out by me (not because of water issue)  Not every user uses a dock. Look at the XZ thread - already several users reported loosen flaps ( I remember at least 2 already replaced it) and at least another 3 users reported not waterproof anymore This depends on one luck actually when comes to quality one gets. MY Butterfly flap broke off right in the middle in less than a month of use - cost me RM98 to replace it !! Seriously having flaps just poses another risk of more quality issues

QUOTE(joytest @ Jul 14 2013, 10:45 AM)  Dock? Naked phone then. Just remember a screen replacement for the XZ is RM1088 thereabouts for the front and RM300 for the back. My Nokia N82 also had broken flaps after about 18 months of use. The MDefy was something else. Yes that was one tough phone, my sister had it. Broke thru too many drops. benny888 Butterfly replacement flaps for RM98???? Now is cheaper, about Rm 80+ . That was about 4 months ago. I change it at HTC Service Center

Pity him, coz I am not able to see the password =p It's been a while, so I have forgotten the password. It is definitely not the default, that I can guarantee =p Sorry for being a twit, but is it available in Google Play ? You can use app root explorer or ES file explorer ; download from playstore

QUOTE(tehoice @ Jul 28 2013, 12:40 PM) so your suggestion is?? send into service centre to get replacement? ok, I'm aware of sds problem, and I've seen a few cases of them in xda. most of them can't be recovered. what they do is got their motherboard replaced.... am i right? I think I need to send into service centre already... surely take more than a day... but my phone is rooted, I don't have the chance to triangle it away and unroot it.. sigh... how?  If this is so most probably the service center will not even know it is rooted or on custom kernel or room

QUOTE(joytest @ Jul 29 2013, 09:20 AM) Except for the screen size everything else is good. This site did not state the source though simply stated "it's confirmed". How I wished it was the previously reported 5.99 inch display 5.7 inch not so attractive anymore

QUOTE(XeactorZ @ Jul 29 2013, 05:05 PM) hope the spec is true, then can trump the Z ultra  Just hope it doesn't follow S4 footsteps with tons of hopeless gimmick which are half baked n doesn't work efficiently well. Worse it takes up lots of space.

QUOTE(antt00 @ Jul 31 2013, 01:30 PM) Its the "it will never happen to me" thinking. Very common nowadays. Right. Remind me of my friend who never buckle up when driving. He always think it is safe n unlikely he will have accident. Finally learn expensive n costly lesson when he got into serious accident n whole body crashed onto dashboard ( he was passenger) n head hit windscreen. Seriously injured n hospitalized for 2 months .
