Recommendations for Brand new Note 2 - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hey everyone!
Just got my brand spanking new Note 2, and I'm already falling in love with it! Any recommendations for some core apps/programs for this device would be highly appreciated, thanks!!

Does it have the latest OTA update? If not, root and unlock that bad boy.

Don't accept the OTA update and get yourself rooted and unlocked. I like gmd spen control and button savoir for use with the s pen.

Cleanroom Ace 405 works awesome
Also I changed my sd from local to SD card to gain more space
There is also a Samsung auto correct mod as well that I just did, works great

NOTE 2 rom S3

Is is possible to flash a NOTE 2 rom in the galaxy S3?
NO
considering how long you have been on xda (longer than me) you shouldn't even ask this question.

Flash Note 2 ROMs on a Note 2 and SGS III ROMs on an SGS III.
People have been getting into trouble flashing ROMs made for the international Galaxy S III on their American/Canadian Galaxy S III's, so no, flashing a Note ROM on an SGS is going to be very painful and cause damage.

Yeah ofcourse its possible. Just that you might brick your device permanently and make it completely unusable.

Chuck Norris can even flash Note 2 ROMs to iPhones!
Yes it can be done but here is what you need:
Note 2 ROM
Odin (mobile Odin is fine)
USB jig
Samsung repair centre number
Bin bag to throw your phone in
plenty of tissues to wipe the tears
Hope that helps

i have just flashed nokia 808 software on my galaxy s3 and i got me
a 42mp camera... the 8mp sensor just vanished into thin air and pureview
replaced it... why was i even waiting... in the morning after playong with symbian
on my galaxy s3 i plan to install iOs6 to see what it's all about !?!?!
:silly:
K now this is going to be one funny thread to watch for replies
《swagged from aokp》
and i did it... i used super glue in recovery to merge the ios and android... this is frankenstein rom rc 0.9beta... i need testers and a counter to show me the number of devices i bricked... a dream come true !!!!
ps
i take no responsibility what so ever if your phone does not burn, melt and teleport to moon... you will succeed those stuff if you are really persistent in flashing imaginary rom a 100 times over and smacking your phone on the floor real hard...
no hard feeling.... i love to fool around :silly:

Chuck Norris knows how to unbrick bricked S3 so if you know that too,do it....:laugh:
Yeah sure it can be done, if you want a mickey mouse phone that doesn't work. I'm sure their are loads of people willing to help you seen as though you're stupid enough to even ask
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
On a serious note, no pun intended. The feature i'd like ported to the S3 is the split screen multi-tasking. It should allow you to do more things at the same time. The problem for the S3 with this feature though is the 1GB of RAM, but the I9305 solves that.

Heres a vid of it in action.
Chuck Norris can, not only unbrick iPhone into concrete-not-brickable Galaxy S3 , but can symbianize Windows 7 into androidlike icecream sandwich with jelly beans inside covered with gingerbread crumbs.

[Q] Is the note 2 ever going to have multiple rom slots?

I know coming from the bionic, they had multiple rom slots with TWRP. Will this ever be possible with this phone?
Thanks

never heard of it
It's basically partitions out the internal card into however many slots you want, max is 4 I think. It uses 2gb per slot. Then whenever you want, you can go into TWRP and switch between roms.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
I've heard of it, as I had it on my razr hd. But I don't see why when you can just have backups its so easy and fast to just be swapping backups. That's normally what I would do when there is 2 roms that I like a lot.

I did, and it was great. Unfortunately it doesn't look like they support much in the way of Samsung devices at the moment. As of mid-November they were working on support for the GS3 but I don't know what's happened to that. Apparently Sammy's partition structures are annoying.

[Request] 1% Battery meter on stock rom

I'm wondering if someone can tell me how to make the battery meter display in 1% increments. I know it's going to take some work, but I'm willing to learn if someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks!
Sent from my Galaxy Note 2 using Tapatalk 2
Looks like I found the method of doing this.
Going to take me a day or so to mod, but if anyone wants it I'll make it available with a blue theme on the notification toggles and status bar with a Guage style battery meter.

Holy hell, I didn't expect anyone to ask.
I'll do my best. Still haven't gotten a chance to work on it. Trying to get a research paper written for publication, hopeful this weekend I'll have some time to play.
Want to make sure it works before I distribute it.

You know you can enable "show battery percentage" in the rom right? Is that what you're looking for?

Did that. But I want a battery meter that does 1% increments too. And mostly a guage style meter.

I see.
Everything is set up perfectly on my GN2 except for wanting a gauge style battery (in red) as well. Beans has that option in his ROM but I am running stock right now. I was about to start researching how to change. How is it going on your end?

Slowly, but now that I know it exists on Beams rom it will make the work considerably easier. Maybe this weekend I'll have time to look through his and try to kang what I need.

So apparently the systemui.apk is assembled more differently than I thought. Everything I try removes the notification bar completely.
If anyone else gets it working that would be awesome

Let me see what I can whip up really quick
I can only confirm this working on Cleanrom 1.0 but it is a vzw base so I dont see why it wont work. So FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Hit the tanks button

Nope. You need an adapter to make it work with your scarf. Especially in cold weather conditions.

Mine refuses to work with my scarf, I've tried everything I could think of. Do you recommend a certain brand? North Face? Gap? Polo?
I think the more important thing is the material. I hear that you wont have much luck with polyester. Wool might be the way to go, if you can deal with the itch.

Smart Debloater

I saw someone asking for a debloater and couldn't find one in our Sprint Note 3 thread. I use this one from international thread. It's supposedly universal and works fine for me. It has an aroma interface and is very easy to use. Just flash in recovery. Apparently leaves some libs behind but those are small in size and will not adversely affect your device. So head over there, thank the op, and get your debloat on.

Do you still have auto rotation after removing Samsung hub? Usually removed a needed lab for auto rotation. Be cool if this doesn't touch it.
