Hey,
Do you know an app doing the same think as AirView?
AirView is a feature of the S3 allowing you to start applications just by doing some special gesture on the air.
It ll be cool to have the same feature on our N4 no?

Hello friend. Its a new feature of S4:laugh:
I don't think its possible to port it to n4.
maybe not on the S3 but that featur was on the GN2.
Why it isnt possible? N4 got a frontal cam too

But on the GN2 it only works with the S-pen, on the S4 you can do it with your fingers.
Its not related to front cam

Related to the screen itself, it somehow monitors movements/proximity.
can't be ported to the n4... depends on the touch sensors in the phone... here's how sony did it

I think it is screen digitizer that matters.
Nope. It's the new IR sensor on the s4 that's doing it.

IMO is useless. Had a note 2 and it is a neat feature but not worth it

What features can we possibility get from the Samsung Galaxy 4 on the Note 2? I know we cant get infrared. Maybe dual camera or dual recording from a custom rom.

Obviously not anything hardware dependent like infrared but dual camera, S-Translator, airview with your finger, eye scrolling and all that neat stuff.

Air view with finger may be hardware. The way Sony did touchless touchscreen was with a super sensitive capacitive matrix so samsung may have done something similar.
I have no idea how they did it, just trying to ensure expectations are realistic lol.

I believe the air view is dependant on the ir blaster.

Maybe it's just me but I don't see much of a need for Air View with the finger since we have that with the S Pen. I just think it would make more sense on the S series devices instead of the Note devices.

Doubt that. The ir blaster is located at the top of the phone (along side the 3.5 mm headphone jack). Unless there's another one along side the standard sensors on the face of the phone.
Anyway, a "feature" I'd like to see ported is 4.2.2. I can't wait to get my hands on that project butter.
Also, the camera, music player, photo gallery and video gallery all seem prime for porting.
A feature I don't want ported is that crazy settings menu with tabs and settings all over the place like some kind of settings-bomb went of and blew settings-pieces all over the place.

I thought butter came with 4.1 and above
The settings on the S4 is plain ugly, it's scattered all over the place, I really hope the note doesn't get that

Yes, I'm interested in these features in the S.G. S4, and I wish to be able to use them on my note2.
Even if one of our gorgeous developers can extract these features as an application.
Regards.
So....the real question. Who's selling their note 2 for the s4....why....and how are you going to go about doing it??
Is it worth it??

I dont think its worth giving up the Note 2 for but if you have a update and are going to get it thats the way to go
Thats what I did im keeping my Note 2 and upgrading to the S4. Keeping the Note for backup device and for work purposes

I got a upgrade a few days back. Choose the Note2 over the S4. Had a S3, Best buy gave me $268 for it. I could have left the store with the S4 for total $4.78 after my trade in , tax and best buy reward points. But I wanted the larger Note2 indtead and dont regret it.

I think it will be a little longer than May-June that we have to wait for 4.2 2 I would say july-August. If I had to guess that is what I would guess.

You could be right but also Google I/O is this month may 15 so we could get it after that.

Some people say that there's more power in the s4 so that's why they're heading to the s4. Others are going for the smaller size cause they can't handle the note. And others have bought into the special features

My Choice
My Epic 4G died a few days ago and I had an upgrade. I chose the Note 2 over the S4. Battery life, bigger screen (to make up for the loss of my keyboard) and SPen plus other things that I cant put into words sold me. I used both side by side and just loved the Note2. When we get 4.2.2 I think that will make the note 2 even more awesome...IMHO. Now I have TWRP on it and trying out ROMs...Loving the Note 2. :good:

Try synergy. Best rom imohop. I have flashed at least a 100 on my S3. Since I bought the note 2 this is the only rom for this phone. It is stock on speed, but I themed it with a seperate program and have it just the way I like it.

I don't think the megapixels have much to do with low light as the quality of the sensor itself and f.stop and aperture. I'd much rather a lower MP with better sensor and F.stop than all the megapixels in the world.
But i get your point nonetheless.

What was your problem with the note2? I had a chance to pick up the S4 cheaper than the note2 but choose it because of size which fits me perfectly.

Hey everyone
anyone any thoughts on this? I have a note 2 and I love it. I am well used to the size and to be honest I don't think I can go to the S4's 5" screen.
Am I or will I be missing out on anything that the S4 has or will the note 2 get all the features in an update.
IR Blaster is the only major thing you're missing out on IMO.
And lte possibly.
Sent from my GT-N7100
the IR blaster as aforementioned and the extra sensors if you care for such
The ir blaster would be a handy little thing to have but I don't feel it would outweigh the extra half inch of real estate.
Any note 2 owners switching to the s4?
I can't even imagine switching from note 2 to S4. In fact I'll be missing out on even more useful options. I really hate how the new layout of the S4's settings menu, it looks outdated and I hope they change that before 4.2.2 is released on the note 2.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Note 2 is way too good , no chance of replacing it with S4 .......Will wait for Note 3 & then decide on replacement.....As of now NOTE 2 ROCKS !!
If the Note 3 is more like the s4 than the Note 2, then I won't bother to upgrade.

1. Best battery ever on a Samsung smart phone - This is very important to me when I am out and have no access to charging , secondly I like to check my social networking media and love to have lot of widgets and live wallpaper - Try this on a S4 and you will know how bad the battery life is on S4.
2. How can you ever Trade a S-pens capabilities for a S4 ????
3. Instal a customer Kernel and overclock your Note2 to beat S4 performance.
- IR beamer !!! really - are you going to use it ????
- I am still not utilizing 100% of the sensor and motion control on Note 2 , S4 - Iam not sure if will use them all even though they are quite innovative.
And has anyone any idea when it will get some of the features?
The next probable update would be 4.2.2. Date unknown.
Note2 is best.. no need to replace that with s4.. wait for note3 and change it with note3..
