sometimes, S Beam does not always work if you or your friend has a case on. I would recommend taking off your cases and try again.

Either one of the phone must not have the case on to work.

Do you have this problem on your Note II?

Hey Guys,
I just found a problem on my note ii. I wanted to know if it's just me or if it happens with you guys as well. It happened with my old my Note II, so I exchanged it. The problem is still there with the new note.
So here is how you find the problem.
- Take out your S Pen.
- Go to the S Pen Section
- Create a Note.
- Then go to the right side of your phone, next to the center.
- Keep scribbling up and down, till you find a dead spot.
Let me know if it happens to you guys too.
Thanks.
I did this and noticed nothing unusual.

This happens to my Note II. There's dead spots in the empty spot. I just wanted to know if it was me or some other people as well. This is my replacement phone, it happened to the old one as well.
Nope, my phone is working flawlessly!!!

Thank you so much guys! I appreciate it.
I'll be heading back to T-Mobile with this.
I am able to write on the entire side of my phone (both sides that is).
My problem with the note 2 is that stock alarm clock doesn't work, I set it up and nothing! Anyone else?

seems to be working fine here, are you sure you set up everything correctly? tone? melody? vibration? that's weird
No problem here. Have the device replaced.
Are you using a case with a magnet latch? That could be whats causing the dead spot

[q] my camera falshes when i try to turn on my gnex!!!

So this is extremely weird. About a week ago i flashed the most recent miui.us from rom manager. last night i went to sleep with it on charge and when i woke up and pressed the power button to see the time.... the camera flashed but the screen didnt come on
Ive pulled the batter and tried to turn it on: same thing
ive tried to boot into recovery: same thing
ive tried to use the gnex toolkit 10.1: its not recognized
so what im trying to figure out, because ive looked all through the toolkit... is there a way to flash an unresponsive gnex (or) have any of you guys heard of this issue before
Verizon Galaxy Nexus
This is a very strange issue.
Have you tried booting the phone into download (Odin) mode?

did someone or you install an anti theft app onto your device? one that takes pictures of the thief if they try using the device..
I feel like I have tried everything but the odin program, my does absolutely nothing besides flash no matter what button combination I try.
and no I have not installed that app... i actually wasnt aware that it existed!
I just really do NOT want to send it to Samsung. This was actually a warranty replacement I received about a month ago. I flashed MIUI the day i got it and it was acting fine the whole time until I woke up and it was doing this
So ODIN it, you need ODIN for your PC and the recovery files for your GalNex. That should fix you right up, I wouldn't want to send it to Samsung either, they'd try to charge you regardless of warranty.

My observations of my new T Mobile note and my galaxy s3 International Version

I am finding that I love my new note but I really miss some of the features that I had on my samsung galaxy s3. The most notably will feature was the FM radio and also the find my phone app from Samsung. I hated it every time I had to send my galaxy s3 to have the problems fixed on to it because I had to go through the importer in Miami do you get anything fixed. This is why I went with T mobile this time so I can have is it repairs on a phone if I needed. This came into play two days after I got the new note 2 from T Mobile. It had problems with shutting itself off if you laid it down on the counter a little hard or jared the phone hard.

Cool story bro!

Yeah I am with you on the loss of the fm radio otherwise the upgrade is quite worth it
I'm not familiar with the Samsung find my phone app but if you can't get it on the tmobile phone you can probably find a similar app in the play store.
I have my phone unlocked and like the versatility of using tmob or att Sims.
This model of the phone also offers wifi calling which is not found in the international or att versions.

Find my phone was from Samsung that let you find, disable, and wipe data from any computer. As I was reading about it it is only on International models. Branded phones loose alot of standard features. The only one I think does not is the Nexus.

[Q] N2 to appear as S3 ... How?

Hey guys,
Just trying to figure out how to do this.
I have a TMobile Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and i recently purchased a new asus laptop/tablet and it comes with Asus Instant Connect which allows you to use your samsung phone to tether with the laptop, BUT the application is only for Nexus, S2, S3, and NOTE, but not NOTE 2, so how can I make the computer think that I have an S3 instead of the NOTE 2
by the way, this application requires to have kies installed.
Please advise
You could just edit your build.prop to change what your device is an as, but I'm betting in this case it would be a little more in depth then just telling it you're using an s3.

Yep, i already changed the build.prop from T889 to T999 and restarted the phone but the program still knows
thats why I am asking on here lol

Probably would have helped to let us know that. As I guessed though it's more in depth then that so I won't be much help. Maybe one of our genius devs will swing by

If the computer is scanning the literal hardware itself, you may be out of luck, but I could be wrong.
