Fake Galaxy Note II - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey.
A friend of mine bought the Note II. So far so good.
But when she turn on, the system appeared to be like a Nokia 3310 (for example). The camera seems 3Mpx, the touch is 'heavy', no fluid...
there a way of installing an updated ROM in order to maximize the Note?
Thanks a lote.

Yes. Its not like iPad 3 to 4. Its a generational change. Everything is better. I used nova as my launcher to put 5x5 grid but otherwise its all stock. One word fantastic. I look at my note 1 and its like looking at my HD2 compared to my Note 1! Battery life is 2x.

While I don't own a Note 2 yet I know the Note 1's stylus will work on the Note II and vice versa since they both use Wacom UD digitizers. I actually use my ThinkPad X61 Tablet PC stylus on my Note 1 perfectly fine.
Yes, both S Pen of Note LTE and Note 2 works on each other.
And about uograde , yes its worth it in every sense ,specially processer and battery.

Good that they work, but the first generation note stylus really sucked. New one is much better.

What has your note 2 replaced

Loving this phone. I havent picked up my netbook for 4 weeks now because this has everything I need and with the milti-window i can multitask so i can say it has replace my netbook which is my main PC really. It would be great if it could replace my works desktop but no support for X-Kryptor VPN and can not by encrypted to the level my work requires.
What has your Note 2 replaced or have you tried not using you PC and seeing if the Note 2 can actually replace it.
My Note 2 replaced my previous Galaxy S II. I will never try to use it as a PC. I love my desktop and nothing can replace it other than a upgraded desktop only.
In current time we can't say it have replaced computer.
May be in coming time it will replace the PC.
Although today we can do most of tasks over this kind android device but still we have to wait...
The Note 2 replaced my iPhone 3Gs as well as my iPad 2, it does both phone and tablet things better.
Its replace my Samsung Galaxy Nexus, As someone else said it will never replace my desktop computer.
Ive stopped using my laptop as much as i used to. and ive sold my Nexus 7
My galaxy note 2 replaced my HTC One X. Did not regret that decision. This phone is better in all aspects except the screen, but that difference is minimal.

Replacement of a GS2.
I came from a Galaxy S2 LTE.
The Note 2 has replaced my laptop (at home) in fact my Note 2 is more powerful than my laptop. I turn on my laptop once a month to pay online bills and if my bank had an android app, I wouldn't even turn on my laptop.

Replaced my n4. I am still deciding if I should sell my gtab2. I like my gtab2 and it still gets a little nookie but the only thing it has going for it is and IR blaster, which isn't really worth keeping anymore. And my laptop is not going anywhere. I love my sager np5160. It can only be replaced by another sager notebook.

I personally replaced my beloved note 1...
I am absolutely pleased with this move as there is a big difference between the two devices as the speed is incomparable as is the user experience altogether...
I also have 5 computers at home and I must say that after this purchase I open my pc less often when I need to see my emails and browse the Web. ..

I mean to ask the 2nd phone to have with the note 2.I already have the note 2 and i want to buy a 2nd phone along with my note 2.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Well, to be honest I don't see the necessity of having two Android phones especially when you hold the top Android phone already in your hands. Buy a cheap phone for calls/text if that is your case. Buy an iPhone 5 to get the best of both worlds. Lol. HTC J Butterfly is a competition for the Note 2. Droid Razr Maxx HD for the greatest mAh battery for a phone.
Motorola razr m would be a good choice if something more portable is on ur mind..

iPhone 4s then. Will be cheap by now. But still no jailbreak though. Waiting for one on my iPad 3
Lumia 800 is dirt cheap now on payg. I might have to get one for times it would be dangerous to carry the note 2 and give me somewhere to put my 2nd sim. If only we had proper Google voice in the UK.

Im personally thinking of getting a nexus 4. (if they ever become available ) i know my note 2 is the best in a lot of ways but i can never have just one phone for extended periods of time. I think the smaller size and stock Android is a great second phone, especially if you don't like rooting and romming.

I used my note II along with a HTC One X and thought it was a great companion phone. Only thing that bothered me was the standby time of the HoX being around 4 days with an hr of screen time.
I also use an htc one x and the note 2 together. Great combination because you get the bad ass screen of the one x and the functionality of the note 2. Plus i just wifi tether to my one x to save me having a second sin card

Along with Note 2 an iPhone 5 is the best option. I'm using both of them and I'm so happy.
Just don't get driven by fanboyism, buy what you like.

New phone suggestions! Cheap ones

Hi guys,
I have Galaxy Note 2 and i like it and all. Don't think it's too big either, i like the size, i like the phone in general.. but..
I am pretty much broke and want to sell it off, I never really use the S-pen anyway either. Can you guys suggest another phone for me? I had an galaxy S2, and i really like that one too! Or should I go for something else?
Hope i posted in the correct forum

Not sure if you can wait. If so maybe wait a bit to see what is coming . Gs4 is around the corner and the xperia phobe are nolice as well.
At the moment, for the larger screen the droid dna is probably the best option. Then there is always nexus 4

s2 is the cheapest choice it goes around 130 eu secondhand of course
Perhaps a controversial suggestion in these forums; but how about a Nokia Lumia 620? It does a much better job of being a phone than my Note 2. I use my Note 2 basically as my laptop...I wouldn't consider using it as my phone though given its size, price & complexity.
I also find that some of the core apps on the Lumia have no equal in the Android sphere (Nokia Drive works completely offline; Nokia Music is completely free - and you can store about 12 hours worth of offline music).
If only Android were a little more user friendly...

Get a nexus 4.. performance wise with cheap price...trust me you wont regret

I vote for the Nexus 4. You're getting a great processor, and a guaranteed updates for a while. dollar for dollar / euro for euro, it can't be beat. If I were on a budget, I'd consider that... for 3 seconds... and buy it. But make sure you get a case! Some people who have dropped it have complained of shattering it. But I don't doubt that wouldn't happen with the Note 2 or any other device.
NEXUS 4 #FTW (that's cheaper than 400 bucks)
For cheap nothings better than nexus 4.
If you can afford or for everyone else buy xperia z or wait for s4

Get the nexus 4... no doubts. . (I am getting a second nexus 4 ... makes an excellent gift)

[Q] Upgrading to this or S4?

So my mom lost her E4GT and I'm due for an upgrade super soon. I'll be passing along my S3 to her and either getting a Note 2 or the S4.
I've done some research on both but would like to hear what you guys have to say without any influence from my already formulated opinions.
I'm with Sprint, the international version and the Nexus 4 are out of the question.
Should I get the Note now or wait a few weeks for the S4?
P.S. Don't worry about my mom, she'll have a Palm Pre and wont be phoneless.
S4 dude.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Meh, the s4 is merely a s3s with miniscule improvements, the note 2 is still more of an upgrade then the s4 imho. Samsung note line of phones stole all the fame and now its like the galaxy s phones are having a tough time catching up lol
Bring on the note 3 already!

It depends on whether u want more processing power (s4) or a bigger screen (note 2).
Sent from my Xperia Ray using xda app-developers app
If you are into photo retouching and artistic stuff go with the Note II. The S-Pen is worth gold! Whatever you do, I would say wait for battery tests on the S4 before you buy. And if you do buy either go for at LEAST the 32gb versions.
I have the note2 and my wife had the S3 and is getting the S4 she wants something in between the note2 and S3 and witch makes the S4 perfect for her. When she gets it ill probably steal it from her for a day or two though

note 2 i love the note 2 i loved the s3 but for some reason i couldn't downsize screens even. plus the s pen is amazing and well be getting the features that the s4 will have so why not get the note 2?
I would get the Note2 bigger screen spen is amazing. Plus like everyone keeps saying we'll have the software soon on are note2 from thw S4 anyway. Yes the S4 has a 1080p display but to me thats not worth not getting the Note2 because it already has most of what the S4 has
