Samsung Galaxy Note 2

Flashed Omega on last night. All seems to be good. I choose the custom option and turned most of the stuff i do not use off.

My iPhone 4 paired with my car audio and hands free but my Note 2 only the hands free. What's the deal?

Anyone?

Do I need to jb and load a rom? Which one supports bluetooth audio?

I dont think its the phone. I remember reading some where that the car companies worked with Apple to do the iPhone integration.

This might be the case, but if the car audio supports A2DP then the phone will work with it.

These phones aren't network locked so you'll be fine! Just remember to get a micro-sim!

Have you ever wanted to use a certain keyboard for normal use, and a different one for the S-Pen! This will ease your life.
- When the service is running, the pen's position is detected and the keyboard is switched to the learned or pre-defined one (depending on the mode).
- The service runs quietly and efficiently. No popups, no interventions.
- Support for starting on boot
- Service supports two modes:

Learning mode: Tries to detect the keyboard you use in each pen position, stores the detected keyboard, and uses it the next time you take your pen off, or return it to its place.
Fixed Mode: The service only uses the keyboards you chose inside the application, even if you use another keyboard for a short time, when the pen's position, the keyboard is reverted back to the ones you chose.

Send the contacts over Bluetooth. Not sure if crappy iPhones can do that.
And Whatsapp is free for Android for a year. Some people have reported their purchase for iPhone going over to Android also.

Your purchase of Whatsapp should come over, as it is tied to your phone number, not the device.

If you don't want to do bluetooth (which works great and is probably your easiest route) sync your contacts with your gmail account on your iPhone. Look here: http://lifehacker.com/5944188/get-google-and-ios-living-together-in-perfect-harmony

Perhaps you could get your calendar and email entries over that way too. If not, you may need to search for another sync tool for the email and calendar entries.

Once you get your Note 2 and put in your Google Account details, your phone will sync automatically with your contacts stored in the cloud.

Thanks so much - I suppose I will lose all the conversations from my whatsapp though?

I am not sure if IOS has a backup option for Whatsapp. But Android does. Just check in the settings.

Nope, got to email it to yourself. Individually!

Look somewhere in iOS whether it has a backup option (to the Whatsapp servers). Maybe when you activate whatsapp on Android, it will say it found a backup, and would you like to restore. Not sure about this, though.

I think maybe Biometrics was referring to this, that you could email all the whatsapp conversations to yourself, if you want to refer back to it.

Seen this offer from CellC?
http://www.cellc.co.za/cell-phone-deals/contract/samsung-galaxy-note-ii-on-straight-up-100
Looks to me that they have added an additional 300megs of data so it matches iPhone deal. I work it out to cost of phone now just over 6k.

 

[Cloneboyza]

Grrr, that's annoying. I wonder if I could get them to update my contract to include that. Was considering upping my data bundle, but if I could get them to add that 300 Mb, then I'd be happy.
