    while the fonts so small on this tablet?

    You could also try the app iFont. It gives a bunch of different app choices, so you should be able to find one that fits your liking especially after you change the font size to its maximum.

    Disappointed with Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4

    Re: Disappointed so far Just give it a bit of time. If you follow the XDA forums you'll note that some good ROMS are already out and are being updated with regularity. Changing the role of the menu button (especially if you're used to the way the button functions on Samsung phones) takes some...

    How to disable Magazine UX on my Tab Pro 8.4?

    Simple answer: You can't. The best bet is to just use another launcher (Nova, ADW, Buzz, etc.). Just go to the play store and search for "launcher" and you'll get a host of options, none of which use the Magazine UX tiles. No root is necessary.

    [AT&T][GALAXY NOTE 2] ***How To Root***

    I thought I'd share my experiences for anyone who's on the fence about rooting their phone. I'll try to keep it short. 1. I have an AT&T Galaxy Note 2. 2. I came from several years with an iPhone and have experience "jailbreaking" my phone. However, I'm not a computer expert, so I can only...

    Easiest way to play mkv files?

    The BS Player works very well. It can play MKV files with the Dolby sound embedded where other players can't.

    Default keyboard after reboot

    Seems to be par for the course for the AT&T Note 2 as mine does the same thing on restarts. It's a simple matter to switch it over, but a minor annoyance nonetheless.

    Note 2 Battery

    It's certainly possible for it to be a hardware issue, but software is the likely culprit. There are some very useful task/program killer apps that are free. You should use them and see if there's maybe a rogue appbor two updating in the background. Also, check your email and social media...

    ATT note 2 sales

    The amazon deal was a good one. I was able to get my local Best Buy to price match the $199 upgrade price. Keep your eyes on Amazon throughout your return window as you may be able to get a better price with price matching. I originally bought two GN2's for $299, then got a price match to $249...

    Replacement keyboard apps

    Try both SwiftKey and Swipe since you can get both for free. I like SwiftKey best but only because I feel I'm typing faster using two thumbs than I do one finger.

    Depends on the carrier, but to my knowledge the update will be automatic and OTA when it's ready.

    My Case Review #1: Ringke Slim (w/images)

    I have this case and agree with everything you said. This is always the kind of case I turn to once ive had a phone awhile. Is it much protection in a fall? No. But it gives piece of mind against scratches and other minor annoyances.

    SanDisk 64 gig ultra incompatible with Note?

    I installed the 32g Ultra on my wife's GN2 and the 64g on mine and have had zero problems. I use a Macbook Pro and didnt have to make any file format changes to the card.

    Battery life on LTE?

    It's been fantastic. The first day I got the Note 2 I tried to stress the battery to check its daily lifespan. From 6am onward I downloaded all the apps I wanted, had three email apps and Facebook and Twitter on at all times, took 4 long phone calls and was in and out of apps all day. All of...
