    Anybody using the flygrip or something similar on their note 2?

    I really want one but I'm holding off for the defender case. I've seen how durable the phone is save for chipping on the bezel I wish they would make a slimmer case that was hard. I miss my incase slider.

    Verizon and billing

    You should just be paying the flat data rate plus overage. Imo you should forward the email out to a Gmail account with double authentication but I don't know the details of your proxy server. Maybe it won't be allowed. Best bet is to call Verizon outright. I went with 4gigs then dropped to...

    Are the days of high-end smaller-screened phones at an end?

    I have a note 2. I'd still go bigger. Not to 7 inches. But I might, if they made one. I guess I'd just have a tablet with a good smartwatch that text and took phone calls so the only time I had to pull it out of my bag was when I wanted to. And that is exactly where I see all this going...

    Note II Camera

    Without flash night shots are bad but with flash they are great. Honestly I've yet to take a pic that I didn't feel was light enough or back light enough that came out bad. Plus you can lengthen the exposure to remove some of the grain. This is a basic photography trick and is available on...

    "Big Red" should be paying me!

    When there was only iphone for Internet on my phone I had one. I stuck with it until 3gs. Then Android came out with free tethering and no more itunes logjamming sync forced updates &c and I was done with the sandbox smartphone. Siri is nice, Siri is better than Google search, but I'm not...

    Good pair of headphones?

    I get 9 hours plus on my bluetooth Sennheiser mm 100s. Good sound, decent mic, behind the neck style. They are lightweight but tend to pinch over the ears at first until you break them in (fair warning set them up with a full post it pad over night, for some reason Sennheiser products are...

    FM Radio and SVDO on Verizon Galaxy Note 2?

    While I can understand people wanting fm chips on every phone, I can't see it as necessary as people make it out to be. My truck is never so far away that I can't go to it in an emergency situation, not that I would need to as I have a job box radio that has a large removable rechargeable...

    Galaxy Note 2 pre-delivery buyer remorse

    I said since I got my iphone and people said it was too big that I would get a bigger phone if there was one. Every one I have gotten has been bigger and I thoroughly enjoyed each more than the last. I will say that 6" would likely be my top out size in 1080p aspect ratio. But there more my...

    Is anyone else having issues with the gmail app?

    Either getting Google plus or downloading the update to Gmail solved this issue for me. Before that I would have to look at the email back out to the mail list then go back to the same email to view it again. Very annoying. Also try restarting the phone. Hope this helps.

    Galaxy Note 2 vs. Droid DNA-- which Verizon device deserves our money this holiday season?

    The dna has huge weaknesses and minor advantages. The screen is blu Ray resolution, awesome. One bluray file is sadly all you will fit to make use of that with contacts, games, the os, your own pictures, maybe a song or two. .. The point? You can't take advantage of the ppi. To even see a...
