Im sure you guys care less but anywho.
Screen has a greenish ugly looking tint on the left side of the screen going from top to bottom
You can see it in white pages or even this forum background as the page loads.
The so called 4G plain sucks outdoors and specially indoors, As soon as i step inside the house it looses the 4g, and also inside ANY place i walk in!
So i try using 3g, omg, i should say EDGE! LOL. SUPER slow.
Also, samsung still has this real dumb feature or hardware issue, the screen DIMS real low once the phone gets warm/hot. I hate that, ive used my iphone 4 and many others and NEVER EVER had to deal with this. It is so annoying.
Other than that and even the fact that the samsung hub wont let me play the movies i PAID for i loved the phone. So sad this is because i have no idea what to get next. Even if samsung releases a blow my mind phone again i will never buy one till they fix that retarded screen dim when phone gets warm or hot. Thats just crazy that i have to use it outside with such a faded screen!
Your complaints seen trivial and more than likely can be remedied by replacing the phone, other than that cool story bro

Not a "cool" story "bro." take ur phone outside in the sun for a few minutes and watch the screen dim. Sg2 unlocked version did the same thing.
you can manually adjust the screen brightness without auto set by swiping the taskbar

Everything you said is a dud unit + network related. The one thing that makes sense is the dimmer when it gets hot, but that's just a preference. I returned my EVO 3D because it skipped music tracks unless I downloaded an app (which had to be ran in the background) to prevent it. It's speakers were also so quiet that I'd sleep through my alarm. Then, to top it off, my text messages were displaying the wrong time (m texts would display the correct time, but incoming texts would be listed 2 hours before mine, so mine always appeared at the bottom and it was annoying!)....then my camera app became useless with green lines through it.
Anyways, done with going off-topic...I'd suggest getting a replacement or switching networks.

Slow down amigo, I am sure that up coming roms will take care of most if not all of those
Issues. That's the beauty of andriod you can pretty much customize anything. The size of this screen is awesome why go back to a 3.5". I don't see the greenish tint on my screen , Maybe you got a defective phone. Again I agree, some things are annoying but the devs can find solutions to most of the issues.
Return it and wait for your iphone 5. Ur a fanboy, I can see it in the way you talk. You had no business having a real phone like this to begin with. The beginners section is over at ApplefanboyIvegottheGBs.com.
Sounds like you got a lemon. There should be no green tint on the screen; S-AMOLED+ is amazing with colors and contrast.
Regarding network speed, 4G support is obviously dependent on whether or not there's 4G coverage in your area. I really hope you knew this before you bought the phone.

Oh shutie! Fan boy of anything im not. I mentioned the iphone 4 because its the last phone i had before i got this one. Ive had the droids, thunderbolt, galaxy phones from tmobile, samsung infuse, nexus one, and others and the iphone 4 for a week. So you got anything else to say thats worthless?
Also, you guys mean that when ur outside in the car and you use your phone for a while the screen doe NOT dim down? The setting on my phone was all the way UP and the screen was super dim. As soon as it cooled off like 1 minute or so it went suoer bright. Used it again to stream music and the screen went down low again. I hope its just a lemon.
Ur screen has a technical problem. It's a very complex piece of technology. Our experiences don't show green tint or dimming problems. The opposite is true. It's vibrant, bright and the color reproduction is like nothing we've ever seen. I would exchange that phone as soon as possible.
Sounds more like a lemon then the majority. Get what works for you, obviously in this thread certain response is expected especially with an informed user base for the most part

Hi all,
I was just wandering, is Sense a threat to your phone? For example, you're in a very important meeting that decides your future, then suddenly, somebody phones you. Then you're like "Oh Crap!" so you flip your phone over, therefore silencing the call. Then an hour later, the meeting finishes. You've either gotten promoted and now you got a high-paying role, or things go South, and you either get de-promoted or stick with your current role, or you just get fired. So you look at your phone, to ring back the nuisance that called you. To make a long story short, you scream. You slouch against a wall and cry in despair. You flipped your phone over with a bit of force. You screen is cracked/smashed/scratched. So now, depending on your current role, you can get a new phone, or have no phone, or just a cheap Nokia. But either way, you liked your HTC a lot.
So, what do you guys think. Have you been in a situation like this. For example, your phone thought you had pockets that were bigger on the inside, and rang quite loud; and you were in your holy place of worship, making matters even worse and quite embarrassing.
So, is HTC Sense a life saving feature, or a terrible feature?
PS: Somebody think of a more effective word then terrible.
Keep holding volume down button till it goes WAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY down to vibrate. Done.
btw, how do u have android "3.3" on ur WFS?
Is sense a threat? No. In those scenarios it'd be peoples stupidity for not putting their phone on silent.

This post actually has no point!
HTC Sense gives you the Options to disable those features if you don't want them! Simple as that! You have a Smartphone in your hands not a cheap Nokia! lol
There is also a Hidden Feature inside the Sense Rom which if you actually find it then your HTC phone will kill you! Who's that for a threat?
Don't get me wrong I'm just saying the truth!
Its all the users fault. People at school get their phones taken up, only because they wernt smart enough to use the silent mode or turn the phone off. not htcs fault
Dude, how hard do you flip over your phone during meetings!?
sense not bad; just a bit bloated

So mods, close it if you wish. Just a bit of Android humour.
I still don't believe the 3.3 and you cracking a phone's screen by turning it around. XD
Android and Sense destroyed my life
Android and Sense destroyed my life
The most disgusting thing in Sense and all launchers is that you can easily switch homescreens by swyping a finger.
I was a very rich man and used to have like 7 women at once. I have 16 children and never had to pay child support because of my women did not know each other.
I paid an agency giving me alibis and stuff, so it would have never been revealed what I was doing.
That changed very hard when I bought my brandnew HTC Device with Android and Sense. So how?
You know, the girls like it when you set their face as wallpaper, having a widget on the homescreen to call or message them instantly and all that stuff.
So I did it for every chick on each homescreen and every girl was happy and so in love.
Well, the other day I just dropped my phone and girlfriend 7 of 7 series 2011 just catched it up, swyping with her palm over the screen. So this was the end. She called girls 1 to 6 and told them the truth. But she did not stop. She also called the 14 girls from 2009 and 2010.
Now I am a poor man. And that just because of some dumg guys of HTC integrated a feature they call "user experience"
So I will never ever buy a smartphone again - and probably will never ever have money for one either ...
Will HTC put aircon support for sense. no? I want a phone with aircon.

My friend is willing to ditch his iphone for an S3, but he needs an easy solution to mimic his physical ringer switch. He needs to easily turn off his ringer from his holster. Any ideas? Thanks.
Use the volume down button to turn the ringer all the way off.

Theres an app called shush that lets you program the phone so it will automatically go silent at certain times of the day that you specify.
I use setting profiles, it lets me set profiles then conditions and actions for each profuile.
It knows when im at any of my offices, at home, asleep, in a meeting (calendar item) by gps, cells, time, lots of other criteria.
Its a little sketchy to program at first, but I have moved my settings to 4 phones now and its really slick. I dont have to remember to flip a switch even.
If you pull down the notification bar there is a tab for silent /vibrate/ normal
Obviously before u holster it

Although I agree 1000%, I can certainly understand of an iphone user who is reluctant to switch again when they have finally got one that "just works"
An engineer friend of mine struggled thru all the pain of a slow/laggy POS android phone with all the asinine work arounds like juice defender/custom kernels etc just to eke out a little more battery life.
Since he is not into customizing the phone AT ALL, you couldn't drag him kicking and screaming back to ANY Android phone at this point..........
Nah, I'm just kidding around. I had a 3GS before my Inspire. It was OK, but that was about it. I don't miss it one bit, but I don't begrudge anyone for wanting simplicity.
No button to switch on the side like the iPhone. But I could also list so many things that the iPhone can't do or lacks compared to the Galaxy S3 so I don't mind that at all.
I have the iPhone 4S too and still enjoy my LTE GS3 over it.
I'm sorry but I think this thread is pointless. He either wants a better all around phone or he wants to stay with his old outdated pos phone. There is no physical button able to mute the phone with the screen off. If that is the dealbreaker he definitely has some issues he needs to work out with himself

I would disagree the OP is asking is there any solution for a specific criteria he has. The reasons behind it maybe questionable but he is still asking does the phone have some functionality he may not know about, which is fine. The whole point of this community is to share and exchange ideas, tips, tricks and educate. There is nothing wrong with someone asking a question about the phone at all many have found features out about their phones that they had no idea it had. What I am struggling with is what your post has at all to offer other than your personal opinion about another phone manufacturer and a potential insult to the OP about his friend. Maybe in the future rather than post something of no value you don't post or post something that has value to others.

Coming from a Treo, a while back, I agree about the usefulness of the ringer switch. It is a nice simple, elegant solution and one of the things I miss about the Treo. The best solution I have found is one of the profile managers like someone mentioned. You can set it to silence the phone whenever a calendar appointment has a word you choose like "meet" or "call" or "lunch".

Not that I care what others think, but is anyone else sick of hearing the same "I could never carry around something that big" reaction from people. Everytime someone I know sees my phone for the first time I feel like I immediately have to defend it by showing them how it still fits perfectly in my pockets and how other phones are too small for me. Its mostly iphone users. I bet if they spent a couple days using my phone they would probably never go back to their small "squint to read on" screen.
Yeah, but after I show them the bells and whistles, and show them how great browsing the Web is our watching a video, they usually go...Wow...that is nice! I don't have to squint to see the screen. And that is why I got it!

However there is still one fool who now likes to say that I carry a "flat screen". His comment is so pathetic it speaks for itself.

My standard answer is: look isn't that cool, my screen is bigger than your whole phone, so much more viewing area.
I get this a lot too but the size just feels normal to me now, I can't really use anything smaller(that's what she said). My ex had an iPhone 4 & it felt like a toy, I couldn't even type on it. I honestly wonder how people use anything smaller than 4.3 inches anymore. Boy, this is just one big long **** joke, huh >.<
I couldnt agree with this more
I rarely get that now. When I told people I was getting it they said that. But after I shoeed them an HD video, they all wanted one. Until I told them how much it costs.

i agree with all the pluses everyone has pointed out. after i explain to people that its better than lugging around a tablet, you dont have to squint, after showing them the multitasking split screen and bells and whistles they leave impressed. the main question or comment i get is "its so big it looks silly holding it up to your ear" to which i point out that i never ever even with a smaller screened phone held it up to my ear and that i always use a good bluetooth headset, so that point is moot for me.
I have coarse beard hair and sometimes oily skin which ruined my earlier phones screens so its been bluetooth all the way. :laugh:

My uncle is exactly like that. He said the phone is too big for him and that he can't fit it in is girly pants. He went ahead and bought an iphone 5. Started showing it off to me saying look how small and perfect it is. He then said that the screen resolution is so clear that when he watches youtube the video looks bigger..... buwahahaha! I know, I know. Then I accidently dropped my Note 2 on top of his iphone 5 and crushed it to bits. :highfive:

Here is what I don't like:
1. When you wake up the phone from sleep there is a noticeable delay.
2. After you hang up the phone, there is a delay of about 3-4 seconds before you are brought back to the dialer.. Until then you're just shown the "Call ended.." message. Thats quite annoying because you have to wait another 3-4 seconds before re-dialing.
3. MTP.. I have never gotten it to work on this phone. After downloading the official Galaxy Note II drivers from samsungs website all I ever get is "Hardware missing" or something like that. I really miss the plain old USB Mass Storage.
4. When you bring the phone to your ear the screen turns black, (thats good), but after you take it back down to see the screen, there's a gap of about 2 seconds before it turns back on. very annoying.
So these are the 4 things I have noticed that I don't like.

I think if you press the back button or home button to go back to whichever screen you need, it works based on my experience.
Like if i just ended a call, pressing the home button takes me home right away without any delay.

If they are common problems on different phones then that means exactly that, different phones. Not all phones. I'm not trying to be rude but I think all the OP was trying to say is that the four things he listed kinda bothers him, nothing more, nothing less.

Wow OP, you are one spoiled person. All the problems you listed are way too minor to annoy a normal human being.
Download Flipboard and read the news, see how not having food to eat is annoying the rest of the world.

You do realize you're on a cellphone forum and not cnn right?
Hey everyone...stop talking about...well...anything! because other people have problems and therefore yours are no longer valid.

The biggest complain I have with the Note 2 is the stylus not able to control the menu and back buttons.
I agree with you, that is the most annoying thing about this phone by far. It's one of the biggest reasons I don't use the stylus me consistently. Great point.

While I do agree that these problems may be minor: With all due respect, this is a website about mobile devices and development, and this thread is specifically for the issues regarding the user experience of the T-mobile Note 2.
There is nothing to say that the OP did not start a blog for starving families in third world countries on an appropriate website, or that he lacks common sense and or compassion towards major economic problems. . . as is implied by your remark.
Furthermore, problems must be addressed, not ignored. Many minor problems compounded can become a major one, eroding away the cumulative ease of use and overall responsiveness of the user experience.
Many people like myself regard our phones as valuable business tools rather than toys. It is important to have a high performance tool to efficaciously compete in today's "hi-tech" market.
Getting edge only speeds when using it unlocked on AT&T :banghead: yeah theres so little flaws I had to blame something it cant control .... yet.

I didn't like that it sometimes didn't want to charge as A/C...even though it was plugged in the wall it thought it was charging through USB which took for ever. Changed the USB cable and it seems to be working good now. So I had 1 thing I didn't like...not anymore! There's nothing I don't like about this phone! Ha!

Excuse me? Yes, we live in America and can afford nice things. That said, if we are spending $300, or as much as $700 or $800 off contract, we expect these products to continue to improve over time. The intent of this thread was clearly a constructive one. Developers can't know what we want improved if we do not voice our opinions. Get off your moral high horse.
I think the white is too warm or dirty in my taste.
Other than that, I have no complaint.

Don't even bother, it's not even worth your time.
