Pointless thread
i just got a Note 10.1 and stock is pretty nice, touchwiz looks horrible but the multiscreen and floating apps make up for it, and if JB update brings the same features as the note 2 its gonna be great
however i ended up flashing CM10 and the thing flies! only downside is that the camera is not working but ive never taken any picture on a tablet in my life lol
its perfect for games also with that exynos and mali combo
but if that rumor of the samsung nexus tablet would of came out a couple of weeks before id be waiting for it
Hello,

I just got the i747 gs3 last week cause it went on sale for 50 bucks and I had my contract upgrade so instead of waiting on the note 2. I got this so I could sell it and then use the money for the note 2 but I do love the s3 and had the exynos s2 before this now is the quadcore 4412 better than the s4 krait in terms of tech and real world speed not benchmarks ? Because I know the krait technolgy is based off the cortex a15 and a9 where as the exynos is the same a9 as the s2 with 2 added cores and a overclocked gpu so is it worth the hassle of selling my s3 i747
Yes, I just sold my AT&T S3 and bought the N7100. This is the smoothest device I have ever held. Everything about the Note 2 is head and shoulders above the S3.
I was on an s3 before and when I used my friend's note 2 the multi tasking was like night and day. Everything just loads and never needs to reload. Also, the screen resolution is great! Even the form factor is better than the first note. In the end it's your choice really but the note 2 is one of the best devices I've held in a while. Getting one tomorrow!
No question mate: Get the Note 2 asap. Also had the S3 but this phone is much better imo and blows it away on both performance and batterylife
Good question. I was in the same situation a few weeks ago, but now I have my heart set on the Note 2. It was either note 2 or wait next year for the s4. But since Sprint is going to be he first carrier with note 2, i'm 96% sure I'm getting it.

You do know that posting a question like this here is like asking whether people like Lady Gaga's music on a Lady Gaga fan forum, right?
With that said, I had the S3 for a bit there before getting the Note II and there's a clear difference. The Note II on a stock ROM works better than the S3 did on custom ROMs and kernels, in my opinion. That makes me very excited for the future of this device.
I've had a Sprint GN2 since release day and am currently running touchwiz with android 4.4.2. I never rooted it but it certainly lags a lot now compared to what it used to. I'm a few months away from my upgrade and am trying to decide what I will upgrade to so I thought it was now a good time to mess around with my Note 2 and see how I like different things. I'll follow the guides on this thread to root and load custom roms but most of the discussions about roms are from months ago (not surprising).
I'm wondering what is the best Note 2 rom for a stock android experience and what people's thoughts are on using stock android on the Note 2? I barely use my SPen so I don't really care about not having that supported. After watching the I/O keynote yesterday I'm starting to feel like I'm missing out big time using touchwiz. I remember the big deal about project butter and how awesome I thought my Note 2 was when I got it. The lag now is pretty bad even when doing some basic things. I'm guessing in a few months I'll be debating between the Note 4, LGG3 or Nexus 6 (if one is announced).
Thanks.
I'm using CyanogenMod also liquid smooth is Pretty good idk about the issues as I'm using the note primarily to watch movies at work to preserve my nexus 5 battery
Every time I get a new phone I'm always really excited about all those cool features and abilities but after a few months realize that I'm basically not taking advantage of half the stuff.
Is there a "everything Note 4" resource that walks you through all those things unique about the Note 4 as well as those things you can do with other phones but so much better with the Note 4?
Thanks

there are tons of wonderful YouTube videos that give you all sorts of tips on all the models. just do a search and see what you come up with you'll be happy.
From my Galaxy Note 2
I've noticed over the last few months that Note 2 support has been waning. Every Marshmallow rom that I try on my phone, something doesn't work, GPS, Wifi, NFC, Camera.. etc. Lollipop is ok but has a few bugs in it and the only rom I can keep on my phone without it going south is SLimKat 4.4 (2014). Was just wondering what people's thoughts are on our trusted device and just mainly looking for condolence from the Note 2 family..
I'm just getting started. I've done a lot on this phone in the little time I've had it. There's so much to do on it even if support was to die that wouldn't kill the phone.

Nice. The note 2 is a very solid phone.. I've had mine since it came out (i605) and running a 317 att ROM.. Very versatile phone. I'm still using the same battery it came with. Thank you for responding

There finally an official version of CM13 for the Note 2 t0lte/t0lteatt/t0ltecan http://get.cm/?device=t0lte latest is "cm-13.0-20160508-NIGHTLY-t0lte.zip"
Don't give up on our Note 2!
Some general thoughts after using it, leaving it, and returning to it more than once:
If you already have a Note 2 or can get one free/cheap, there's no obvious reason Note 3/4/5 will be worth hundreds more. Newer Notes have a better camera and screen, and I'd probably enjoy using the S-Pen on physical buttons like those can, but are those $400/$500 reasons?
No matter what the spec-chasers tell you, Note 2 has plenty of speed for today and at least the near future. Look up YouTube speed comparison videos. There's maybe a one- or two-second delay, tops, compared to newer Notes. I can live with that. The difference ain't worth $600 or a new two-year contract.
As for Android OS, just stick with themed KitKat for the Note 2. It's tested, proven, and operates just like newer OS's to the untrained eye, including tons of their features. If you simply must have Doze or another newer-only feature, then yeah, maybe it's time to get a new phone, but again, those features aren't worth letting go of a great phone like our Note 2.
Final word: You mentioned waning updates in Note 2 forums. Have you tried the N7100/N7105 forum lately? It's still a party over there. In the past, we couldn't use those ROMs on North American (LTE) variants of the Note 2, but with the N7100ToNote2LTE Patch , we can now use all the ROMs in that section, if you didn't already know.
Overall, if you like the Note 2, keep liking it! There's no reason to let it go and every reason to keep enjoying it for the foreseeable future.

I hate to bump and old topic, but a member just uploaded a smooth rom to the board and i'm running it on my i605 now, works really well. If there are any note 2 users out there, you should try it out.

I still use Note 2 with 4.3 as a secondary with Note 5 as a main phone. But based on the speed Samsung comes with the new models it's already Antique
With Note 7 fiasco, even Note 5 became a prevoius generation so to speak.
I just installed this...

Very pleased...Thx E-TEAM and AC
Hell no it's not dying
I just got a new note 2 for 80 bucks off eBay.
My note one just died and I loved so much was on nougat.
Now I have a note 2 with marshmallow.. Nougat seems to be fully functional but in still going to give that one a bit to develop before flashing it.
But to answer your question
Hell no it's not dead :good:
