E-ink isn’t something you often see associated with smartphones. There have been some exceptions to that rule with a few notable mentions coming in as the dual-screen YotaPhone and the popSLATE case. Well, coming by way of Gajah International it looks like those with a Galaxy Note II or GALAXY S 4 may soon have an option available for purchase.

Interesting concept. I just can't see the practicality for myself.
one of those cool but pointless things I'd never use
I don't understand the reason? Just seems like something else to shatter upon impact.

It isn't as if you can use both at once, plus the battery drain..

I'll say this Soft, I'm not too sure about what it can, and cannot do. It was just an article I read. And taught the concept was COOL.
But I usually place my phone down face down. So if it works the way I think then. If you receive a msg, e-mail, etc then you'll b able to see it without actually powering on the phone at all. But have to wait too see all the specs for it. That's my assumption

Maybe because you don't understand the concept of it. It for quick access, quick glace at something msg, mms, email. Where is you don't need to power the phone on completely.
And the point is that it's a new product that I was just sharing with the community. For the ones that may actually be interested!!

I understand the concept quite well actually...
Also did read the article.
Just giving my personal opinion, just because it isn't the same as yours doesn't mean I don't understand.
I just don't see the need for a second screen that requires Bluetooth, draining your battery when you can turn on the screen and quickly pull down the notification blind.
I said earlier it's a cool concept that I personally wouldn't use

I love reading about this Gajah e-ink case but even with the updated link it is also from June when many of the other sites reported on this case. Last month I signed up on Gajah's site to receive information when they actually will sell the cases. I haven't received anything and their website has no information on these cases either (at least I couldn't find anything). I really, really want this case...even at $129.00 for my Note II. If you are an avid reader and do so outdoors, this case would make it all worthwhile for the price. Now, I do hope they also figure the software out so you can view most apps on the e-ink screen. It will make the device heavier but...I still want it! LOL!

I am coming from a HTC Evo 4g. I loved that phone but it was time to upgrade. I got my note 2 on release day and I absolutly love this phone!!!! The camera is much better than the Evos. The only thing im starting to wonder about it can i deal with the size of this phone for the next 2 years. I currently have a body glove on it, which doesnt add much bulk to it, but somtimes i feel like im going to drop the phone when im using it with one hand. I just cant seem to get a good grip on the phone when using one hand and I have large hands.
Dude please stop talking so dirty.

Sent from my PC36100 using xda app-developers app
plus you can set the keyboard and phone pad to the left or to the right to help with one handed use.
Why do you need to ask others if it's too big. Only you can answer that question. Everybody will have their own different opinions and in the end you'll still have to make up your own mind. Is it too big for you?
Another question comes to mind. When people buy skinny jeans to go with their iPhone, do they feel the need to poll the public if they look too tight? People who buy/wear skinny jeans should expect them to be tight. (I call them nut huggers... hence why people tend to wear them low). Anyways, if you buy a big phone its a big phone. simple. My gf has a big (.)(.) and a big ( ! ) but I knew that going into the relationship. Thats what I like so I went for i and I'm happy.
To wrap this up, only you can make that decision bro. You dont need to ask for others' opinions because we all have different taste and use our phones differently. This is why people should not just follow what other people think because you end up with a phone based on what others think whe. makingng your decision.. Thats the wrong way to decide. Personally I dont think its too big. it's supposed to be big for a reason. I'd keep it.

T-Mobile Galaxy Note II Toolkit
Ok so I have finally got the T-Mobile Galaxy Note II and just like I did for the SGS II, I am going to start programming a nice flashy toolkit for the Note II.
I'm starting this thread to get started some support and ideas for the project.
If anyone has any good and original ideas please let me know...
Obvious thing that it will do...
- Install CMW (or other recovery)
- Install Root
- Flash Stock
- Sideload APK's
- Install other ZIP Packages
- a few other things that I will carry over from my SGSII Toolkit
But I would love to do some other things for this toolkit to set it above the rest..... So please if anyone has any really nice scripts or tweaks let me know!!! :highfive:
Post to this thread, or pm me...
Here are some screenshots of what I have done so far.
(Not being released yet, only 2 days in to programming)

I remember you from the sgs2 and your toolkit was actually really good and if you want to develop one it will be welcomed for sure. The one that we have is really good and I use it now. If you remember I was the first one to donate to your sgs2 toolkit. I like the idea of the toolkit and fully support it. I personally like doing things manually but have ran ito problems with adb and find that for the common person with only light skills a toolkit is the way to go.I think that there is definitly a place for toolkits in the future of android development. Please do not let others turn you off from developing your own stuff. The more the better. Just because there is one doesn't mean that there cant be another. This is not a competition and I fully encourage you to do your own thing because the more you do the more experience you will gain.
Some of the things the other one does that I liked was the capability to create your own .tar and store your backups on your pc. Basically just adb automated. Your work on the sgs2 was great and I look forward to see what you come up with for the note 2 (by the way what a kick ass phone huh?) Dont worry about what others say there is always going to be idiots if just one person finds what you do useful then you win.

Hey man its great that you support the other toolkit, but I don't really like the option 1 option 2 style.

Welcome to the Note 2, AJ. Glad to see you around. Don't listen to the others. There's no law against more than one toolkit.
For those who have never used his work before, AJ made a very simple and user friendly program for managing the T989. The GUI was what made it special. Everything was sorted easily, so you could add to it if you wanted. Wait until he's done, then make your judgments.
Yeah his stuff is great and to the guy who said we dont need another one who the hell made you the judge of that? The reality is you dont speak for all of us. Aj you will just have to show them thats all.
Yea but I do speak for myself. And that's that.

By all means please do!
I've been really surprised by many of the responses. We don't need trolls demeaning another coders efforts, we dont have enough people actually coding and it sounds like his previous work has been well received.
While the current toolkit certainly works well, it is ugly. And while a nicer overlay of buttons would work, I'd like to see a visual design that shows the steps in the process. As important but probably harder, some indication of that status of your phone, i.e. this is your current recovery, here are your current backups, etc.
Even if you do just make a prettier version of the current tool that would be great, I might not switch just because it looks different but there are some that need that extra help. And giving me more information in a intuitive fashion would be wonderful. Also an open monitor console that persists would be nice, so I can see what I've done.
We have a great toolkit now, lets see what you can do, and thanks for the effort!

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.

Notice in the pic that the camera attachment is not covering the phone camera!!:thumbup:
Full details can be found here:
Dubbed*DSC-QX10 and DSC-QX100, the two lenses are said to incorporate almost all the camera hardware into the lens body itself -- so sensor, image processor, Wifi and NFC connectivity and an SD card slot. As previously reported, the accessory attaches to the back of smartphones and connects over Wifi*(after being paired through NFC), allowing you to use your phone as an oversized viewfinder. Significantly, today's report says the lenses will support both Android and iOS, meaning you won't necessarily need a Sony phone to use these camera add-ons.

I think I'd actually be interested in something like this. I wonder how it'd work. Probably more than that though... I wonder how much it'd cost...

The video I posted in the OP isn't laggy at all. Think it's because they were using that Crapple phone
Can't wait to test these gadgets out..
I'm personally looking at the QX100...
I'll get the QX10 for my girl, so will have both!

They were using a Sony android phone for the bigger camera. It's the upload lag that I'm talking about. My old Digital Rebel which has a real moving mirror shoots faster than this thing because of that.

Ok I understand! And yeah slr will shoot faster. As it should. I already have one of those myself. And lugging around those are a pain, it's always strapped to your neck. Unless your walking with single poll tripod stick!
Think you're missing the point , it's nice to have that true zoom capability. Not digital zoom, but optical! That's why I like it. Nice & compact..

I was wondering if anybody had an experience with trekcovers from Amazon. Here's the one I'm thinking about oredering http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00GXKHV58/ref=redir_mdp_mobile?ref_=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_YyhXsb13Q1PAK there's no reviews so I wanted to see if they are legit
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Would be pretty awesome to have. It's not too too expensive. Maybe worth a shot? Check the seller's feedback.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
That looks awesome! I hope someone get's their hands on it to do a review.
I'm not a fan of TPU cases, but I'd give it a shot for this one:
If you're gonna go retro, you gotta go Generation 1!

They don't ship to Canada though.
I don't really like that they're not using real case pictures, but renders that are pretty crappy.

Yeah I'm always hesitant when there's no real pictures. But it's a case seller correct? Not just a random person.

Yeah they appear to be a case seller. Don't know anything about them though. Showing pictures of the real cases would at least make things a bit better.
iTALKonline are also a case seller on Amazon, and I've had nothing but garbage product the two times I got stuff from them. I ordered a few cases from them for my parents older Xperia Ts. The cases didn't fit at all, the buttons were covered by the front lip, so you couldn't even use the phones... Never buy from them!
Anyway, even if they are a case seller, who knows if they're any good. I like those retro Nintendo designs though.
those cutouts are throwing me off. can't tell what kind of protection it'll provide.

These types of cases are not for protection from anything. The most it'll protect is from scratches. It's just to kee your nexus 5 from getting scuffed up and look neat at the same time.
These are pretty sweet, but I'm really put off by the fact that there are so few reviews of their other cases. Maybe once my SAND starts showing some age I'll try one of these. The price at least is pretty reasonable

Guys don't even waste your money. This case is crap. Its pretty much a plain white case with the gameboy printed on it. I thought it would be one of them nice rubber cases for the iPhone but trust me its not. I'm in the process of getting a refund...yeah its that bad.
