RIP Nokia

I wonder when will the HK guy show a drop test, and when will iFixit show us a teardown.

Mobile tech marches ahead very quickly. You can always wait for the next thing.

64 bit will mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in the timeframe of at least the next year. See JBQ's post linked in post 5. JBQ was one of the major people behind Android. And Samsung is making v1.0 of ARM's 64bit for consumers, so I think it will take a bit of time to get it right. It also needs support from Android itself to work properly. Read Anandtech's writeup on the ipong 5s review, he provided a very detailed discussion. However he also said it's going to take about 2 years before it matures.

Technically speaking, the most visible benefit is allowing the CPU to address more RAM. The rest are actually a lot more obscure and has to do with register sizes and executing more instructions per second, leading to improved execution speeds.

So 64 bits is nothing to clamor for right now, but it will arrive inevitably, so just wait for Note 4 or Note 5 with proper 64bit Android.

As to the curved display, I don't know, I don't think the design shown in the pic is practical. Up to you if you want to pay a lot more for the limited edition.

BTW, there's still no root out for Note 3 on XDA.

SELinux status is Enforcing....

Yes I think they had CFRoot very shortly after the announcement.

This whole SELinux thing is supposed to be good for everyone in general, but certainly bad for modders and hackers. As I said before, they put in a padlock, sold you the device, but kept the key themselves. So now you have to figure out how to unlock and relock it without letting Samsung know so as not to void your warranty.


Well I mean in part it is society's problem........WHY THE HECK DO PEOPLE LOSE THEIR PHONES SO EASILY??????

So we are left with Android, fruit and fenestre.

3 horse race?

CM is a fork of the green robot, Firefox seems to have hibernated, Aliyun may or may not be alive (also a fork of the green robot), and Tizen has not been born. Will Jolla make any waves?

Then there's Ubuntu Touch, also not yet born.

Size benefits of the Note 2/Note 3

No more talk of things that can go boom. If this were the US, cops would already be knocking on your door.

I'm sure your XZU will be even better for this sort of stuff.

You could say it's well coordinated to start selling at Samsung's PLANNED day rather than leaking devices left, right and center.

It's up to Samsung. For the Note 2, the 32Gb variant was only available about 2 months later. Maybe they've improved now but only Samsung can announce it. Get a 64Gb sdcard in the meantime.

You don't need to buy any popcorn right. You can grow your own culture and just sip it off that 20gallon barrel.......

Yeah, save your money on popcorn !!!! Grow your certified 1Malaysia culture and sell as a refreshing beverage to all LYN forumers and /k/tards !!!!!

So there's going to be a massive click fest tonight

Wow then you may be able to help those with small hands (or other body parts) by gene therapy to encourage growth in the right places.......



to hold such devices as the Note 3 and XZU of course......

I hope everyone here improves as well.

As per your avatar, breaking that sign is a step to improvement.

Ok I will gladly take it for 1889 plus 1 cup of your favorite beverage in KLCC.
