Hey, long time no see . :D

Well I'm always have it in my hands like a vise grip lol still when I read that someone else has dropped and messed up theirs it strikes a fear in my heart.

LOL! Normally mine is in my hand and I've gotten quite good at pocketing it before doing anything.

There was a time I could juggle a whole lot at one time with a phone drop being the least of my concerns.

Now, I'll drop a carton of eggs before I drop my phone. :P

I dont use cases anymore. But I probably am jinxing myself.

You probably are. As soon as I got my iPhone, I put it in an Otterbox Defender. I am not risking it this time.

Although I have a flip case on my Note 2, I have to be careful where I lay the Note on with the flip case folded back. The felt on the inside can pick up stuff that if i am not careful to brush off can scratch the glass. But it is still better protection than none at all.

I just use a screen protector along with my flip case and a modded thin case and it protects it from most things other than a 10 ft free fall :)

I'm so paranoid about scratching my iPhone even in the case, I kept the factory screen protectors on the front and back of my phone, and then just put the case over the top.

Well, my Note II is a little scratched now. It slipped out of my slacks pocket while I was getting out of the car and hit the pavement hard enough to dislodge the back cover and battery. Luckily, the screen is undamaged. Only damage is a few light scratches on the back that I can barely see and a larger scratch on one corner where the phone impacted the pavement. From now on, it's going inside a buttoned or zippered jacket pocket!

For some reason people state the Samsung keyboard doesn't auto correct. Mods have been out to enable it. I use Swiftkey as I like the customizations and predictions it brings.

I prefer Swype and that has suggestion correction.

what if I want it to automatically correct like the iphone? Not a possibility??

Stock keyboard doesn't "auto correct" but you might find one in the play store that does.

So Google Wallet works only if you root the device on the Note 2. What are the chances that Google Wallet will be landing on the Note 2?

 

I don't think it needs to be rooted. Just load the APK but it does show up as unsupported device in google wallet. It works fine though.

 

I'm sure it will be pretty soon as the only thing needed is for Google to approve the use with that device. Everything is ready on the Samsung side.

Modded samsung keyboard with auto correct and 5th row for numbers is hard to beat... -.- was never one for touchscreen keyboards but this was sufficient enough for someone like me that came from a whole lot of hardware keyboards

I spoke to my dedicated care rep today since I've been looking to upgrade 2 phones on my business plan. My original intention was to talk about pre-ordering the HTC One & get some feedback regarding whether the LG Optimus Elite or the Kyocera Torque would be the better option for my salesman since we still use Direct Connect. BUT THEN, my rep made me an offer I couldn't refuse...she said she could offer me a Note 2 for each line for $149 per phone.

 

Direct Connect? What Direct Connect? I have two Note 2s due to arrive on Thursday. Mobile to mobile is free now anyway right?

 

Just wanted to put it out there...speaking to someone at Sprint might get you the same deal if the price is what kept you from pulling the trigger.

Android Sprint phones like my previous Evo LTE, would not display the actual signal strength "bars" are displayed measurements of 3G EVDO/eHRPD or 4G LTE. It will also show u on what type of connection you on, 1x, 3G, or 4G.

    • Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and coule potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.  — — — — — The old permit expired for this site without any work being done but a new permit was just approved a few days ago for a T-Mobile site at this address. Description mentions 3 antennas with 2 RRUs per sector. My guess is they're doing something similar to what they did at 360 Furman St in Brooklyn where they broadcast Band 2/66 and n25/41 from one antenna. It's a bit of a downgrade considering the site it's replacing was a full build with Ericsson 6449s. 
    • Still not seeing any ULS postings for pending T-Mobile UScellular merger in Dane county Wisconsin.
    • Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
    • Same with factory unlocked
