I have been an iPhone guy from the 1st Gen, but have noticed the iPhone fall behind in the smart phone world.. so I upgraded to my first Android phone GN2.
Couple questions.
1. I plugged my phone into my laptop but do not get any sort of recognition (other than a slow charge) of the phone. I thought I would be able to drag and drop pics, movies, music, etc.. Am I missing something?
2. With the stock keyboard I used the S pen to swipe type because there was no auto correct built in for normal texting. So I installed SwiftKey3 and love it.. the auto correct is fantastic, BUT from time to time if I already have the S Pen out I would like to swipe type, which swift key does not do. So my question is, is there some sort of macro or setting I can put in that says if the S pen is out, revert to the stock keyboard?
3. Similar to my 2nd question.. I am trying to pick a good messenger app. I am using the stock messenger because I like the feature that allows you to just put the phone up to your ear and it will call that contact on the screen. I would also like to have group texting. I tried out smsgo and chomp but didnt really like them for some reason.. with chomp I got my group texting and emotes but lost the instant call function.
4. Any must have apps?
5. I thought Need for Speed was going to be a free or pre loaded game for the note2.. what happened to that?
Thanks to anyone that gives me a little advice.. I am an IT guy, so far I have been picking up Android pretty quick.. but I have alot to learn! haha.
