Hello, I am using the LG G Pro and I like it but i am looking for another phone with more devs. Only other phone on the market thats 5.5 inches is this one and i see anything smaller as being too small lol. So in your honest opinions, how happy are you with your N2? How would you rate the development for this phone?

Development for note 2 on r mobile side seems to be slow and their are some dedicated devs who definitely keep this phone feeling fresh ... As a phone itself it's great to me I'm really not sure what more u could ask from it ...

Thanks for your [email protected] bigfdaddy2 i noticed you guys dont have as much dev as the ATT or international versions but cant you use the ATT roms? I was able to do it back when i was on gs2. Only difference was that i needed a modem to flash and a fix for auto rotate

We can use the ATT roms also, we just have to do what you stated. Flash the modem from T-Mobile. But, for the 4.3 roms, you'll get data drops, because T-Mobile hasn't released the 4.3 rom for the device yet.

Point taken. Either way I'm switching over. Should buy one off of eBay soon. Thanks for your feedback guys.
Keep the conversion going if you guys want.

I'm trading my N7100 for a T-Mobile Note 2 and am wondering if the current TMo firmware supports split screen multi-tasking yet?
I prefer stock and I know you can root/etc to get it, but I don't want to do that.
Thanks.
Stock, no. But if you flash other ROMs, then you can have Multi Window.

Thanks. Like I said, I don't really care to flash ROMs, but I'll consider it because this is annoying.
What. On earth. Is taking T-Mo so long??
I only got the phone to use with Tzones. I'd like the wifi calling and Samsung camera features. Has anyone put a Tmobile oem rom onto a Google Play S4 yet? Couldn't find anything searching, seems everyone is putting the GE rom on tmobile phones.
I'm sure it'd be much easier to trade phones with someone who got theirs from T-Mobile. I'm sure you'd find people willing to do so as well

Rule number 1 when flashing is to never flash a ROM not meant for your specific device. So I'd say not really because even if the differences are minor flashing a ROM like that could end up bricking your device. However, you could ask the dev to port the ROM.

Can't use a tmobile branded phone with the $5.99 Tzones internet plan. That's why I got the GE S4. It's be cool to have the tmobile software on the google play hardware.
was doing a Lil reading on the Interweb, seen a few post about the Galaxy note 2 possibly skipping 4.2 update and going straight to 4.3. It's suggested that the update might come out sometime in October. Not getting my hopes up it is the interweb lol. Anybody know what are some of the upgrades or tweaks they changed from 4.1 to 4.3

FYI October date if for international Touchwiz phones, not US carriers. Will be months later before US carriers accept what Sammy gives them, adds their files and then decides when it is a good time to push it.
To add to that^, I have a Galaxy S4, that I'm selling, but every other major carrier in the US, Canada, and really much of the world, has received an update so you can move apps to the SD card months ago.
T-Mobile? Not a single word about it.
It will be months after international gets 4.3 for the other 3 major carriers in the US. And likely months after that that T-Mobile sends it out.
The fragmentation is alleviated if you go custom roms

Im with you that's why I stick to stock roms but tweak them to what I want, tired of flashing different roms to find one that is close to what I want but has extra crap I don't want either broken or its just like having the boatware the carrier installs. Yes the Developers do a great job here at xda over the cell phone carriers. I haven't found one that fits what I want( mostly get rid of bloatware and a few tweaks I like) and one thing is I don't complain and do give thanks, cause I don't develop.
To all you developers who read this you do amazing work. I'm not putting you down, I'm a select few who likes to take your mods and add them to my stock rom that's all

I am definitely not a noob here but, it has been a loooong time. From the HD2 and g2x days including a stint with Team Hellfire. I just tried to get back in to the scene with the purchase of a tmous galaxy s4 (4.3) and am realizing that I may not be able to root. That being said, I have read that you can and that you can't. What is the definitive answer? can I root this paperweight or not?
I'm not too familiar with the s4 but I know with 4.3 on an HTC one you can't root yet.
Check your software build number and boot version and then search on those numbers. Most 4.3 phones right now can't root unless you were previously s off and just took the ota. Then all you had to do was reinstall superuser.

You can root, use custom recovery, flash other ROMs, etc but you will trip the (as of right now) KNOX warranty flag. If you care about your warranty, leave it stock and don't muck around. If the warranty doesn't really matter to you, having a tripped KNOX flag doesn't incapacitate your device or anything; just don't expect warranty agreements to be honored.

I was deciding between s4 and HTC one. How do you like yours? I don't think I'm a big fan of touch wiz. I hope Verizon does not take away my unlimited data because all I've had were Verizon HTC phones.
If I had to switch carriers I would probably keep my DNA as it has bands that work on pretty much all carriers except sprint.

So far it is nicely put together and it has a ton of features. Not really happy with the lock down from Samsung though. First is was a lack of source release from LG and now Samsung has to play games
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yeah they did pack a lot of features in the s4. What they should have done was made the build quality better, it's not as plasticy feeling as the s3 but they should have of course got rid of the home button.
I heard Knox is a pain but at least you can root it now. I can't even use my one right now because I hate the Verizon software.

Figured i would start this thread seeing as the Verizon has its own now. This way all of the sprint rumors, speculation and or whatever involving the 4.4 update can be put here. This way we are not digging through so many pages to find a few that relate to the sprint variant.
It's weird, Sprint is usually super quick at updates, if not first. Oh well, I think it will be soon, I can feel it.

From the same site. I saw this also reported on a couple other sites too but don't have the links. I'm betting Sprint is going to hold it but have no clue why. Maybe to push GS5 sales, but I have no clue why someone would want that phone.

Considering they are just now rolling in. My buddy bought one this week and the sales guys was pressing him and another guy hard to buy that phone. The whole idea around note competition to. I'm just saying if I was head of LG I'd put 4.4 on my newest model first only because your newest version is sadly running 4.2.2

LG has already given KK to Sprint. They've been testing it for a while now. It's up to them to finalize and Ok it now. The Flex has been out on Sprint, T-Mobile, and AT&T for a month and 2 of them have updated the G2.

In LG's defense, when KitKat released in November, some variant's of the m7(HTC One) were still on 4.1.2. LG would have been stupid to update 4.3, it would have been a flagrant waste of money. LG knew in August of the existence of Kitkat(because PDK, and Nexus 5), so they just focused on delivering KitKat, and skipping 4.3. Hell, the Note 10.1 is skipping 4.2 AND 4.3, and going straight to KitKat.

from what i am seeing and hearing, No. you will have to .tot back to stock in order to take ota. or if those apps were backed up in titanium you may be able to restore them and take ota. Not sure on the last one though.
I suspect part of wait for 4.4 is that Sprint put a lot of resources into the 4.2 Spark Update when they would have been otherwise testing KK, other carriers were able to get more QA time on the new release and Sprint is playing catchup. (Personally, I wish they'd waited for KK to do Spark)

Really, you cannot wait two months for the update. I'll be upset if everyone else has it before us, went through that with the EVO 3D ICS update.
