In reading all the posts, I feel that Verizon owners of the Note 4, should have a section of their own. .. only because the hardware varies from the other 3 carriers. Just my thoughts.

Re: Verizon owners

The hardware varies how exactly? Do you mean just the mic holes at the bottom? What else?
 
Each carrier has a different country manufacturing their particular N4. Those from Verizon come from China, while ATT makes theirs in Vietnam. I think T mobile makes theirs in Korea. It is possible there are slight differences in their components depending on particular country's part suppliers. I think, for example, there have been more ATT owners complaining of tinny sounding speakers here, than owners of Verizon and T mobile. So there may be a good reason to have separate carrier discussions, when complaints like this are mentioned.

My at&t Note 4 was made in Korea.

Re: Verizon owners

My T-Mobile Note 4 was made in Vietnam. H/W : REV. 1.1, date 10/11/14. I'm guessing that's hardware revision 1.1

Re: Verizon owners

For the Samsung galaxy S3 they had a main S3 forum and separate ones for the carries too. One for Verizon, one for AT&T, etc
 
Re: Verizon owners

WIll get mine in tomorrow! cant wait!

PS. Any recommendations on cases?

I started with the Spigen case w/kickstand and mine had slight scratches on the top metal from taking it out of the case a couple times.

So I've been going without a case for 2 weeks now.

I'm really enjoying not having a case (or screen protector). I feel the build quality is too good (premium) to hide.

My previous phones all had cases and I wouldn't dare not have one. But I only dropped those once each from a very low height, no damage.

So I'm very careful with my phones.
 
Re: Verizon owners

First device I have had where this hasn't already been done. They did it on XDA already...

Re: Verizon owners

Anyone have info on the radios on the Verizon network and have they improved? I need to make a decision shortly between this and the N6 and my GS3's radios were terrible compared to my Moto X. I'm hoping Sammy has improved them since but need someone to let me know.

Much appreciated!!

Major improvement over the gs3 and a substantial improvement over the note 3

Excellent. Thank you for the info. That was my BIGGEST (understatement) gripe w/ the GS3. I love that device but it was so frustrating how often I dropped calls.

I don't know if you saw my other thread (if so, please delete it) but do you know if there's anything to compete w/ Moto Assist?? I commute a lot and absolutely HATE seeing people on their phones while driving. Moto Assist completely relieves me of even having to think about touching my phone while driving. So yeah, after my question and description, let's get back to the original question: is there anything out there to compete w/ Moto Assist or any apps to help?? I've looked but haven't found much of anything.

Thanks for the response.
 
Re: Verizon owners - I would like a specific section

I am not sure of the answer to moto assist. The Note 4 has a car mode but I haven't used it

Right on. Thanks anyway. FWIW, Moto Assist (especially for people like me) might have been the best thing ever to happen to cell phones lol. I'll look into car mode but I'm guessing it's the same as it was where it'll read to you whom the call is coming from and whom is sending the text but I bet the voice commands don't exist like on my Moto X.

If I could only get a Note w/ those features, I'd be 100% sold.... losing Touchwiz wouldn't hurt either even though I've heard performance is night and day compared to how it worked on the GS3 if you want to confirm that even though almost all reports I've read have said so lol.

Yeah through my brief research ive heard 2 things about spigen cases. 1. they scratch your phone when removing (which i will plan to do for when im at the gym and not) and the mic gets covered up with certain cases. So far im still leaning towards the samsung flip cases as ive had them on my past samsung phones. Thinking about getting a cheap one on Amazon to use while at the gym even though i heard it doesnt have the sleep/awake feature but hey, theyre under $5.00 so you get what you pay for.

I have never used a Moto X, so can't compare, but you can use Google now commands on the note 4, even with the screen off.
