First of all, Hi
im new to the forums and as of now im with verizon and i have the vx9800
Im only 16 but i really want a phone with capabilities so im taking the dash, shadow,pearl and wing into consideration (but wing costs way too much)
Im really leaning towards the dash but i need someone to really just help me make my final decision
ill be buying a phone from tmobile in 3 weeks and i dont really have that much time to look into the forums and find what its capable of (other than what all the specs show me)
can anyone please just break it down and tell me all the goodies of this phone?
thanks
So, I have been with Android since the G1 and then switched to the OG Droid on Verizon. Ever since the beginning I have been rooting and rom'ing my phones and loving every minute of it. I recently switched to Sprint because I absolutely loved the 4.5" SGS II and I'm in love with this phone. The exynos processor is insane, and should keep this phone near the top of the pile for a long time to come. Okay, enough ranting. My question is, does anybody have a single link or maybe a couple of links that I should go to if I was interested in starting to create my OWN rom for my phone? I am completely clueless about where to start and what to download, etc. and I know there are a ton of awesome devs in our community so I was hoping somebody would be able to give me a sort of headstart by showing me a site where somebody may have compiled all of the tools you need to get started. I appreciate any help in advance. Thanks guys.

Hello mates,
the topic says what im searching for.
I'm huge HTC fan, but I like the way how you can edit photos on Galaxy Note.
It is on every their commercials so, probably all of you know for what Im talking about.
So far i found only the program "SKITCH" which is similar and free but it will be great to have more "tools"
so if any1 of you know something similar or know where I can found the original Note app to use on our HOX, please share it with me. This will help me a lot with my work, instead of re-scratching on paper.
p.s. if I buy an "Spen" will it work on our phones ?
Thanks.
Spen doesn't work with our HOX
Anyone know of a great "Guide to the Note 2", NOT just a guide to rooting, but the whole shebang?
I'm no noob, with just about 2 years on my (launch day) HTC EVO 4G (OG4G), including some modding and dev-ing.
I was a very proud MYN-ion...using mostly Myn's Warm or Synergy, and getting friendly with the entire community while developing skills I was proud of. BUT, it's been a while since I really did any serious stuff and I finally got a new Galaxy Note II.
I already rooted, and put TWRP 2501 on it, and have tricked out my stock ROM a bit, but when I went to install DTA2SD I discovered this phablet has a completely different file structure. So now I'm feeling a bit lost and want to know EVERYTHING about this phone so I can get up to speed as on the OG4G.
So, I repeat, Anyone know of a great "Guide to the Note 2", NOT just a guide to rooting, but the whole shebang?
Thanks for your help.

don't know of a guide, but sounds like you want to look into dev subforum, which is in the international variant.
yes, how storage is setup on the GN2 is different. Its the same as the S3, and I assume S4. I believe it has to do with profiles in Android. I believe there may be script to use to get App2Sd to work. Otherwise, you need to use something like FolderMount or DirectoryBind. I know there is another script where you can tell the phone the internal storage is the SD card and the extermnal memory is internal storage.

Thanks very much, but I'm still looking for a good, comprehensive Guide to the entire phone.
There are SO MANY things about this phone that are not in the manual, or anything I can find from traditional sources online... The manual hardly even touches on the S-Pen, and from what I've read it's capabilities are impressive.
So far, after rooting and putting on TWRP 2501, I've been able to build a very usable phone simply building on the stock ROM. Before I try any Custom ROMs, I REALLY want to know ALL the phone's abilities...

Awesome, Wiley, thanks.... I usually don't like videos as they're dependent on the "narrator's" personality/talents, but these are prolific so I'll have to check them out.
I would still like a "User's Guide" or a "Tips and Tricks" manual assembled by (hopefully) XDA Members. On the EVO 4G, we had such an immense, awesome community of "Myn-ions" (revolving around the Developer MYN who wrote the 2 best ROMs - Warm and Synergy) there were a few of those, in addition to the MOST resourceful community one could hope for. There was never a single thing you couldn't learn from someone and the exchange of ideas and information was a constant thing.
I learned how to theme, develop ROMs, tweak, etc from them all while usually laughing my ass off...
I'm hoping, since the Note 2 is so popular, I'll find that "community spirit" in this group!
it'll be popular, but I think the S3 or S4 series will be more. It's cheaper. Luckily, there are quite a few similarities, so you can definitely learn a few new ideas
As a side note, I think you probably have a solid ground work. Sounds to me you need to learn more about Touchwiz if you're going to build from the stock rom. I don't think Samsung has released anything much on the Spen to be able port more of it's functions into an AOSP. There is the SDK for it, but I assume it's Touchwiz based. It's possible the feature beyond the the basic touch commands could be built into the framework.

Here is a wealth of info on the Note II. This forum has some really helpful people too.

Congrats on your new toy! After 6 months with mine I haven't seen anything else that interests me.
I find calling Sammy or googling your questions get the quickest results.
I ask for some help or rather come to you guys for help. I am currently using a Samsung Galaxy S4 (As you could tell), I believe, the S4 I have is unlocked, meaning that it is Rooted and do have questions for you veterans, the guys that know how to do it right. So my first question is, what ROM do I use and how do I install one? Do you have one that you prefer, works best and makes the S4 a smooth, great experience? I would like to have a ROM, that gives me the Lollipop experience, if that helps out to what ROM I'm looking for. Secondly, is it a necessity for me to have a SD Card? I don't currently own one and though I am new to Rooting, I have tried this before and failed, almost getting my S4 bricked because I didn't know what I was doing, which is why I have come to you guys
Much help is appreciated.
