    4G speed in LA on GN2?

    AT&T's LTE in Los Angeles, specifically near the Staples Center is absolutely horrible!!!! It's so bad at my home that I had to add a new toggle to disable LTE and just use HSPA....!!!! I guess it may be due to the fact that there are a lot of people near downtown, but it's downtown!! I rarely...

    How many GN2 owners also own Apple products?

    I own an iPad3 and apple TV. I must admit Air Video is pretty awesome on iOS. Plex sucks compared to it as I watch a lot of avi files. But since I got my note 2 I rarely use my iPad other than for Air Video. Going forward I'm never buying anything Apple.

    CleanROM 4.5

    By the way, they always tell you to reset your phone then flash the rom.. But I don't.. I just install the ROM and when it's done all my apps are still there... I've done the clean install method but I couldn't see any advantages other than having to install all of my apps again..... Only...

    CleanROM 4.5

    I'm biased because I've only used the CleanRom roms.... But since you have a backup of your phone via TWRP... if the rom doesn't work out for you for any reason, it only takes 5 min or so to restore...

    CleanROM 4.5

    I installed it the day it came out... To me... it just seems faster.... My wifi seems faster at home.... Can't say anything bad about it. It's now using the aroma installer, I believe.... Just make a backup of your 4.2.5 and upgrade to 4.5. If you don't like it, you can always restore your 4.2.5...

    Note 2 wifi speed slow?

    I restarted my wifi on my note 2 after making this post and it got 10 Mbps but it's always slower than my iPad by atleast 5Mbps. Just now it was crawling so I had to restart wifi again. Kinda sucky. I'm running N wireless network. Never had any issues on my iPhones.

    Note 2 wifi speed slow?

    When compared to my ipad using the Speedtest.net app it's really really slower. I just ran the test side by side and my iPad is getting constant 15 Mbps down versus my Note 2's 1-3Mbps. What gives?

    How do I unlink gmail bookmarks from stock browser?

    I used Chrome when I first got my awesome Note 2. Worked good for most part but I didn't like how you can't organize the bookmarks and the inability to open all bookmarks in a folder. For that reason I started using the default browser and I'm liking it alot. It also plays flash so that's a...

    Switched Completely from iPhone 5 / iPad Mini to Galaxy Note 2

    I left the iPhone as well and I have zeeeero regrets! Note 2 by far is the best phone I've ever owned I stopped using Evernote and just started to use S note when I need to make a list. I think I may not be using Evernote to it's full potential. Can you explain some features you like about...
