Forty years ago today, Motorola engineer Martin Cooper placed the first handheld mobile phone call using cellular hardware installed in downtown New York City. He called fellow engineer and rival Joel Engel of Bell Labs, who was also working on cellular network technology.
According to Cooper, Engel was speechless at first and then courteous to his colleague who beat him in the race for the first handheld mobile call. For trivia buffs, the first mobile phone *was the Motorola Dynatac and weighed 2.5 pounds. It was a brick measuring 9-inches long, 5 inches thick and 1.75-inches wide. It had a battery life of 30 minutes and took 10 hours to fully charge.
How many of us here have had one of these things. Bricks we called them. I can say that that was the proud owner of one of these phones.. :thumbup:
Can you say EMERGENCY calls only!!! Or your calls are no longer than 2 mins
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxgJYQL2HIc&feature=youtube_gdata_player
As he said in the video, the phone should be what we want! THE CONSUMER!! :thumbup:
Not what the engineers want to design!!! Excellent point Martin.
Just my 2¢®

and back then, that was considered cutting edge; prior to that, you had that giant box mounted in your trunk, so you could have the handset and speaker phone mounted near the drivers seat.
75cents per minute, if I recall....and all it did was make and recieve phone calls...I think I paid over 3 thousand dollars for the first mobile phone installed in my car...

You running mission control from your note 2? Kinda hard to burn the battery that fast unless something is wrong. I can crank all 4 cores full tilt and takes my 2 hours to get low battery. Could cook an egg with it after that so not advised lol.
Go back and read the whole post and you will see what the 30 minutes and 10 hours were about. :sly: Hint: not the Note 2 battery.

Thought it'd be a fun experiment to run benchmark test on The best dev backed up phone vs one of the top 2 android device to date, benchmarks are not to be taken too seriously as they are not to reflective of real world usage, plus some of you may say this test is un-fair becuase thr gs3 running 4.0.4 and g-nexus running 4.1... non the less your thoughts and opinions are all welcome!

I stick with the nexus because of the updates and dev community. Spec wise it murders but the developmental on t mobile phones are so slow the nexus is the only way to get the experience i want. I almost bought a gs3. I went to the gd3 forum looked at the cm10 thread and there where alot of issues. I dont want to have to deal with that.
that got a little side tracked sorry

As you can see, the gnex benches at roughly half the score of the s3 on antutu, so there's no point in "racing" them. The gnex' other benefits more than make up for this though, IMO. Just my two cents.
Here's to hoping the next Samsung nexus device is just the s3 with aosp

Benchmarks don't tell the real story ... GNex is far from being a slow phone and the Galaxy s3 is bloated with useless features and software.

Yep. First phone I actually can't kill the entire battery in a day. My onite brick extended battery on my nexus never lasted like this, and that's with a smaller screen.

Haha. Dont worry. Gamermod will follow in time man. We are in the middle of a move, so it will be a bit. At some point I will do a heimdall partitions dump to see if I still have the preload partition to mess with. If not I may have another trick up my sleve for getting this set up the way I like. I have noticed the system partiton may not be limited on this phone... like I said, I need to do a heimdall dump before I know anything there.
I might even work on my own script similar to placebo for this phone... imagine the battery then.

screen on time... I'm pretty sure using the phone will consume more. Such as browsing, texting, and calling rather than just have this screen on time. I could probably get another 2 days if I just left my phone's brightness at min and on a black screen all day
and like the other posters said, all we see is facebook. 6 hours of facebooking? damn!

Well, he can read. You can't. So you should be a little jealous.
3 days, 6 hours screen on time. That is far from "not using your phone"... you can see a good amount of that was Facebook. He is obviously a social person. Also, that app SUCKS battery - even more impressive is the fact the device survived 3 days of standby whilst running that app and having the display on at least 2 hours a day. I would define it as pretty medium/average use. 2 hours a day on your device is pretty intense use and at the very least not anything you described as "barely using it" ...
Never seen an iPhone go 3 days on standby, with that kind of screen on time. Hell, I've honestly rarely seen any newer android devices go that long with that kind of display on time. It is slightly impressive, yes.
After about an hour in Best Buy and their new "Samsung" section... my GF will be buying the GS4 this summer (her upgrade is in June) and will be switching after being an iPhone/iPad/iPod (etc) user for 2+ years. HOORAY ANDROID!

Don't get your hopes up too high. Women change their minds like they change clothes before a party. " This summer" could be a few weeks or months and who knows.
Makes perfect sense

Why do you care which phone your wife is using. You should let her use whatever phone she likes, not trying to "convert" her. It's a phone, not a relIgion.

I don't think he cares... I think he's saying it would be nice to see her use something else besides an apple product.

BINGGGOO! Plus she's always complaining how slow her phone is, how it's always freezing, always draining the battery from 100%-0% within 5 hours, and a bunch more things. Will be nice to see her with a great phone and not a stupid crApple phone! Plus now we can do this if ya catch my drift

No. Your comment was "thats nice no offense but who cares" aka you should've probably kept your mouth shut and just moved onto the next thread if had nothing relevant to the convo.
There's a lot of wives on their husbands accounts today...
Congrats. When we went phone shopping I told my wife I would only buy her a phone if she left her iPhone and got the S3. Lol two days after we got are phones she gave her iPhone away and never looked back. She loves the NFC and ease of picture sharing.

LOL. I remember this thread I saw once and that said something like "Someone please help me, I'm logged into my husbands account and I saw that another member was sending him pictures through PM, what can I do?"
And everyone was like "Get marriage counseling." until a mod closed the thread haha
I don't see why you call it crApple. I personally like iPhones. They are just boring. They are good for people who want something simple, or don't have the time to customize. Sure, apple likes to squeeze every cent out in some places. But when you think about it, up till the iPhone 5, every apple product used the same charger. Everything was synced through iTunes. I love using iTunes. I wish android and apple would work together so I could sync using iTunes. You don't need to convert her if she likes it.

Yeah, I watched the live stream on Android Central. I didn't think I'd want it, and I'd wait until my upgrade in may but hell I want it! So I'm getting it off contract that way when my upgrade does come if anything I can't wait until the next one!

I'm getting it for sure, my two upgrades are one in October and the other in November.

Team SXTP
Does the Note 3 have a RGB display like the Note 2 or does it have the Pentile display like the S3 and S4?
If it has a RGB Display it will be hard to not get. I sadly can't get it because I'm putting all my extra money into helping my parents get by right now.
It's going to suck that I won't be able to get it. I'm already depressed and once it's released on T-Mobile I'll be even more sad. It's such tough times right now and I love phone. Having the Note 2 was great but after seeing what the Note 3 can do and all of its features, I'm just so sad. I know it sounds weird but having a good phone really.. Nvm.. Gratz for everyone that can get the Note 3.
I hope everyone is having a good night.

Phones are great and all, but nothing to get depressed over... Keep your head up.

Yeah they're just toys pretty much. Not much of a necessity since the D710 kicks some serious booty still. I'm probably not even getting the note 3 on release date since I can hold out for a while with my D710. I love this phone so I can only imagine the power of the note 3. That faux leather battery cover is hideous though. I'm gong to replace that asap and stick in an extended battery lol.

definitely getting this phone day 1.
I'm going to wait until December, when they go on sale for Christmas... Plus, that is when my sprint contract is over.

Who usually does the sales for phones like the note?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 4
Amazon is a big one. But that is usually around the time all the carriers come or with a buy one get one... I an thinking family plan style, since i have two phones that expire same time. But Amazon is notorious for the $0.01 sales from end November-x mas.

The funny thing is I just insurance claimed for a new S2 (well refurbd), It does everything I need it too....except LTE. The saving grace is that my area never received wimax, nor does the city I'm moving too. So I don't "need" a new phone, until the city I move to gets it.
I really wanted the S4 active, but I just don't see moving to at&t just to get it. Now, there is a company that will "waterproof" your phone. I may use the spray on water repellent (rustoleum maybe?) on my spare S2 parts phone to see how well it works and then do my new s2. Theres a video on youtube of someone doing an EVO, but not doing a professional job and it was effectively waterproof.
I miss having a stylus based phone (coming from the Touch Pro 2 and ppc6800), but the note 3 is large, maybe too large for me, but man would it be nice to have such a large screen for games and media. Plus the true multitasking and windowed programs looks badass, that is the next step, specially someone liek me that used to carry a small laptop around.
My concern is having the thing in my pocket, in jeans when I sit down it would probably snap the thing in half. Also using it one handed while driving, maybe a smaller dialer and localized controls for google maps and such. When gmaps released the new update without zoom buttons...what a terrible experience.
I also don't want to waste an upgrade waiting 2 years for a good phone to come out. Now that phones are getting really expensive, you kinda have to time it better. I'd love to have as S4, but I'm glad I still have my upgrade right now, on the other hand a used S4 is still $450 on craigslist, so you can get your money out of it still. But a non-contract note 3 is probably like $800, and $300 for contract, I may just get one based on the savings.
Double tap and zoom with your thumb on the new Google Maps, easier than buttons
Mostly will be my new phone! Was gonna go for the LG G2 but this looks amazing !!
Is there any sales that don't require a contract? I just got out of a sprint contract and I'm not about to go back into another.

You will probably be able to pick it up under one of the prepaid programs out there once the hype settles down.
Yeah I rather wait after release since release models always have some bugs.
