Multiview files found in verizon stock image!

There is a system image for the verizon galaxy note 2 that has been posted and is available for download. Users that have downloaded the system image have reported finding multiview files inside the package. Maybe when our stock image is released and available for download we will have the multiview files as well. This could be a good thing for the developers.
The article is on droid-life.com and is titled
"Software image for verizons samsung galaxy note 2 available for download"
Check it out!

Nice. So the VZW Note 2 has an image out for an unreleased phone, while we wait with phones being sold.

I've heard AT&T, Sprint & Verizon are working on multiview so is T-Mobile also working on it?
What about the screen recorder function?

Excellent news. To me this means that if Verizon's GN2s have it then maybe the official OTA is around the corner?

Ok well while I was drawing there is a small red "record" button at the top and wheb I finished drawing I pressed it again and it saved to clipboard....then when I went back into snote there was a file that looked like any other snite file...ckicked it and it replayed the whole act of drawing all the scribbles like I drew.
Is that what screen record is?
However I donot have multiview thats for sure

This is a feature within snote only.

Cool features. ./ general talk

I want to say hello note family! This phone is already my favorite phone. Also I like to have a thread where ppl can ask questions about anything and talk about everything. I personally like to talk about lil this I find and share them with others. So we dont blow up threads on dev section and have a million threads on things that have been answered.
So to start it off, I found that the note 2 has low light feature witch makes photos look great!!!
Same phone flash.. had galaxy s3 didn't have that feature. Thought it was cool

That will def come in handy, esp these uppoming winter months when we're all pretty much stuck inside! Inside/dark photo-taking=always a challenge.

One of the hand gestures I saw on a video that I didn't know was there is pretty cool. Basically if you have it active, while your phones on your desk or at a table, you can wave your hand over the headset and it will turn on part of the screen(most the top half) and slowly dim over a few seconds. Basically used for taking a quick peak at missed calls/text/notifications.

I remember my old Galaxy S i9000m had a low light feature that was like this

[Q] Samsung GALAXY Note 2

I recently had a new Samsung GALAXY Note 2, l loved the updated S Note. However, I noticed that when I wanted to change the type of pen and the type of colour, I tapped it with my S Pen, it took a very VERY long time to give the menu, is there a problem, or it's normal?

For me it is. I found that long pressing instead of tapping made it seem faster lol. Mainly because most of the waiting time is taken up by holding the pen to screen haha

S note
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium

Yep it takes a lot of time, S Note is acutally very slow app, if you dont close it it even slows quadrant benchmark by 2000-3000 points, just by having it opened in the backround, super slow sometimes, it needs some modifying

Thank You All.
Thanks to all who helped me .

Should I return it?

Just got my note 2 & noticed a small discoloration in the volume button as shown in the picture.
Everything is working perfectly
Is it worth the return?

If it doesn't really require lots of hassle, i would ask for a swap.

If I bought it at a store, I would return it.

It will definitely go back first thing in the morning as I just found that the theft side of the screen is waaaay to unresponsive to the spen.
Thank you guys.

Guess what. ..theyre all not ve r y sensitive on the side of the screen with spen. Mines like they and multiple people have Reported this.
Search for spen sensitivity and you'll see what I mean

Oh now I understand..... Yes that's unacceptable

already on its way back

Holy crapola that sucks! I was gonna say (before I read all the way down) that I'm so anal with my stuff that I'd return it in a heartbeat. Now that I see the sensitivity issue I'd obviously return it like you did. Hopefully that doesn't ruin your opinion of the Note 2 though, because it's a truly awesome phone! I've had mine for a few weeks now and I don't know what I'd do without it anymore!

Well, I'm a huge fan of the note concept & I know that Samsung's quality control is very very good but sometimes you get a lemon & you have to deal with it.

I guess I'm just fortunate I never have these issues....how did you purchase in store. ...yet its later outside the store you notice something you SHOULD have noticed at time of purchase.............doesn't everyone inspect their device prior to paying and leaving. As far as the s-pen issues people should adjust their settings mines works just fine you have to tweak the sensitivity to your own UNIQUE handwriting style

bipoler: Sometimes new gadget owners fall victim to the so-called Gollum syndrome: their eyes enlarge, their skintone dulls and greys out, and their cognitive functions are diminished. It can last from a few minutes to a few days, and only the worse failures can stop the symptoms quickly, more subtle defects take longer.

Well I got my unit online from timo's website. Once I got the device 18 hours later it was on its way back. The spen issue is not just a less sensitive area... its a deadzone which the device just does not register anything.

[Q] is this part suppose to make a clicking sound?

i bought me the samsung galaxy note 2 about a month ago and recently i noticed when i press on the part on top next to the headphones port it makes a clicking sound as it something is not in place. i removed the back cover and pressed again it still clicks. i dont know for sure if it is a problem or not but it is really annoying me.
i cant return the phone for a new one because it passed the 14 days return policy in my country but it is still under warranty status.
im worried about one thing if i send it there that they might open the phone to fix it and i dont want an open phone
so can somebody an expert in these things can tell me if it is ok to leave it like this or should i get it fixed.

I just tested this out of mine and heard the clicking. I'm sure its not supposed to but the phone is creaky in general, guess it's just a trade off you have to accept when owning the best phone in the world.

He is talking about the upper bezel.
That click is because of the double tap the bezel to return to the top of a list (in contacts or messages etc).. It's a setting from motion settings.

Yeah, I thought Samsung made devices that were durable and extremely solid, even if they felt very cheap.

Both my note 2 phones from hantec had this issue. Two of my friends with the at&t version do not.
My handtec phones also had the gap issue between the frame. My friends phones do not.
I dont buy phones from hantec anymore. The replacement for my note 2 was sent with open box. They told my to piss off when I complained.

Als got the clicking issue on the top of the bezel. My gap between screen and bezel is there as well. I have to live with it because my phone was bought second handedly.

I must have a lemon then, because my phone (AT&T Note II) doesn't have any squeeks, rattle, chinks or bumps.
