Samsung never shows changelogs. Maybe they are too embarrassed at the number of ridiculous bugs they've had to fix.

Personally, I think this expectation of fantastic-ness of a smartphone camera is overblown. It has become better over the years for sure, and has largely displaced the point-and-shoot camera segment.

But even comparing to a good point-and-shoot, I don't think a smartphone camera can match its processing and output (yet).

That's my 2 sen.

Somewhat OT:

Yay I got an RPi B+ today.

Will try to setup an OwnCloud box for paranoid backup....

Ad Away needs root because it modifies the Hosts file. Adblock plus on the browser? Or a standalone app?
If standalone, it will need root.


Rubbish.

Bro you need to multi-quote instead of posting multiple posts

Well, I personally feel Samsung has gone overboard with the TW *FRAMEWORK* (I'm not complaining about the UI since I don't really care about that).

So much sh*t is tied down to this framework that they've become almost like that other platform.

The promise of Android is/was that it would run on all devices, but the worst offenders of the TW Framework are the S-apps, like S-Note, S-Memo, S-Health etc.

You can't port any of these to any other devices, and although I dearly love the active digitizer on the Note series, _middle-finger_ to Samsung for locking it down.

Again, TO ALL USERS OF NOTE:

DO NOT USE S-NOTE OR S-MEMO if you value your data's portability.

I recommend Handy Note Pro, Dio Note, Papyrus as the most portable apps in the Android ecosystem.

Remember, your data is your own, not Samsung's to lock away.

The latest ANK5 update made it go away for me.

It will take ANY 5V charger. Of course, higher mA output means it will charge faster, but it will be limited to 2A max pull.

The fast charger has some smart mode that pushes to 9V for the fast charge portion.

It should not pose any problem, since all these devices are at 5V.

RAM should be the same, it is only storage,....it is the transmission channel on the chipset....hmmm I was not aware SD uses a 64bit channel.

That explains why they are faster in games (from what I gather reading here).

64bit would mean approx double throughput when they need to pump in huge amounts of data.

Coming from Mr. mudkip, please take whatever he says with a heavy dose of salt. Brine may also be used.

I will go so far as to say you may safely ignore what he says.

In fact he is largely doing a disservice whenever he posts.

WTF....Samsung still having charger problems ...

It looks like they will have charger problems every time they switch to some newer technology.

Note1 > Note2 (1A to 2A) = buzzing problem

Note2 > Note3 (2A to 2A) = no problem

Note3 > Note4 (5V to 9V) = sudden death.

They need better engineers and/or more fault analysis.

You've progressed from being a mild annoyance to a complete nuisance.

Congratulations.

Even so, most of his posts in his own thread either make no sense, or have zero value, whatever language it may have been in.

Ignore whatever mudkip says. Mostly rubbish.

Please man, don't post anymore....

You add NOTHING to the forum.

完全没用

Wouldn't there be plenty of iDiots that other platform's fans to take the offer?

Hi gratz for getting the Gear S. Do register yourself in the form in post 2 of Gear S thread, show some community support. Thread link in my sig.

So are you using it as a phone or just a watch for now?

His post here is ok, but his GS post is totally kuli. Terse.

Not much different with using an otterbox defender

Yes, well I was referring to the size. I held one once for a Note 3.
