    The phone WE want vs. the phone THEY tell us we want...

    As a Note 4 owner that's truly the only kind of device that would get my attention! :D Sadly Samsung seems to think they can just slap a S Pen into their latest S series device and call it a Note. :(

    Go to settings, display, touch key light duration and make sure it's not set to off.

    Anyone Own a Note 4 that Doesn't Crash/Reboot?

    Think you meant KitKat, it was the OS the Note 4 launched with (never had Jelly Bean). :) Myself I have three Verizon Note 4's and other than a bad battery no crash/reboot issues to speak of. The first one is an original release that was on KitKat for 2 years before it was rooted and flashed...

    Maybe crossing the fence and jumping into the iPasture.

    I've had similar feelings lately as well since Android devices continue to lose hardware features that used to set them apart from Apple. So I feel like there's less and less reason for me to stay with Android. So once my trusty Note 4 kicks the bucket I'm going to seriously check out Apple's...

    What do you think is the best android device ever made?

    For me it's the Note 4. It's the only device that still has all the hardware features I want; large flat screen S Pen soft touch back user-replaceable battery SD card and IR blaster. And I can make phone calls on it too! :D

    What you DON'T want in Note8?

    This won't happen but for the record (Samsung if you're reading); I don't want a sealed embedded battery, glass back or curved tall screen. I don't want a glorified S series device with the S Pen! Instead return the Note to its former glory as a productivity device (ex. refine the Note 4 design)!

    Things I would like to have in Note 8

    To reiterate, 95+% of the time I use my phone with two hands so the physical size isn't a problem even when holding it to my ear with one hand during a phone call. Besides they could reduce the bottom bezel if needed even with a physical home button (ex. if they were to go with a traditional...

    Things I would like to have in Note 8

    Haha yeah I knew that when posting. Just stating what would entice me to consider replacing my Note 4 which besides a wish for a bigger screen I still consider as close to a perfect device. :) Otherwise push for the future? I have no need/want for water resistance (can be added with a case...

    Things I would like to have in Note 8

    I'd like a square cornered 6" FLAT 16:9 display as I'm not a fan at all of these new narrow and tall curved displays with rounded corners (ex. S8/G6). I've always used my phone with two hands anyway (phone in one hand, S Pen in the other) so I have no want/need for a one-handed device. Also...

    New Forum Design: Official Feedback Thread

    Nice find! Thank you! :D It does enable desktop view which shows the last date/time of individual posts inside a forum area (ex. Note 4) although not for sub areas (ex. Note 4 Accessories) or at the very top forum level (forums.androidcentral.com). So you're still forced to click in to those...

    Note 4 - Ahead of its Time

    Apologies, I read too much into your post (based on your past post history across the forum. Long time lurker). All the same it's still very strange to see you here in this forum based on that post history where you have spoken out against various features we value here.

    Note 4 - Ahead of its Time

    Oh FFS! As someone who has repeatedly spoken out against a user-replaceable battery as a bad design choice can you please bug off and let us have a thread to enjoy and celebrate what we value in our Note 4?

    Note 4 - Ahead of its Time

    My sentiment as well! :) Been using a Note 4 since its release and frankly have yet to see anything in the same ballpark to consider replacing it. Not only does it still work great but is the only device yet that has the key hardware features I value/want (ex. user-replaceable battery, large...
