    Iphone to android

    A few things need to be said here..... Let's start by describing iOS as a closed (boxed) system and Android as a fully customizable system. Any time when you deal with a closed system you are stuck with that option and you as the consumer learn to adapt to it, while in an open system...

    reasons to root your S3

    Rooting VOIDS warranty, plain and simple. Take notice that new phones (GS# included) have a flash counter...if you trip this you may void warranty from AT&T and Samsung. If you plan on rooting: Make sure you do so in a manner that does not trip the counter. Research ROMS, as many are in...

    Had great battery life then all the sudden horrible life...

    I love how some people provide possible solution without learning detail...not knocking...just saying! Questions: 1. Did you just recently received the OTA update ((Build number ends in UCALH9)? 2. Do you spend a lot of time connected to WiFi? I ask bcs I received my OTA on Thursday (10/25)...

    ICS Update

    Dude really? Nothing works on Vista....it was the biggest failure that MS ever released. As for AT, Kudos for releasing this even though it was not compatible with Vista.... You can't have it both ways...if they test further, oh shame on ATT for delaying the release of ICS for my Note....I'm...

    Attention artists with Galaxy Note, post drawings here!!!!

    Not even an artist here, but when I had the note I sure enjoyed drawing. I sure miss that "little" device. SGS3 is great, but I would love the SGS3 internals in Note size.

    It has shipped!!!!!!

    Hey Man....Thanks for the reply... I actually have been Carrier hopping since May. I had T-Mobile (Horrible), switched to AT&T with the Galaxy Note, and 28 days later on 6/14 switched to Verizon. While on AT&T, I had not problems with signal at all. At work AT&T Signal is boosted throughout...

    It has shipped!!!!!!

    I can honestly say I have never so disappointed on such an anticipated shipment. Mine has shipped, but arrives Monday. I was going to go to ATT and buy one tonight, and cancel my VZW order. I suspect that I will not have good reception where I work, as I am not getting right now with the...

    Anyone dislike their S3?

    Try a 3rd party keyboard. Right now the two best KB in the market are Swiftkey3 and Thumb Keyboard. I have tested just about every major KB in the market and always came back to the TKB, until the release of Swiftkey3. It is an amazing KB, very customizable, you can skin it like an iPhoneKb...

    Screen size of S3 vs SG Note? Who's seen 'em side-by-side?

    I had the Note and loved it. The S3 is about half an inch wider, and about 3/8's taller. The only reason to get the Note over the S3 is the s-pen. The phone has some lag, but nothing unbearable, but it is about 8 months old now, and by tech standards it's old. The battery life was not great...

    Turning off LTE?

    Im not sure why this is an issue. the fact that you can't turn it off has more to do with radios than anything else. In VZW lte requires to have 2 radios, an lte and a CDMA radio, that's why turning off Lte is easy. With AT&T is a single radio managing network connections. I had the GNote for...

    headphones + Mic

    I think you have all wrong.....the one that changed from the standard was apple. The iphone is the only phone (to my knowledge) that has a four stage 1/8" plug. Everyone else uses a 3 stage (rings) connection. That is why you have all the controls that you get with all the iphone headphones...
