Samsung Galaxy Note 3

[Mets]

I would like to know from the guys who put screen protectors on their Note 3 if there's any difference with it on than without a screen protector? According to the Note 3 manual it says that a screen protector should not be used as it causes sensor malfunctions.

This is interesting - I reported random "sprites" on my screen during certain actions - like scrolling up and down in the contact list - I've had a screen protector (cheapy China Mall one) on mine since I removed the factory issued protector. I've also noticed that using the S-pen doesn't generate these "sprites". I'm gonna remove my protector and see if it makes a difference.
I'll report back.

I never got a factory fitted screen protector with mine

I'm sure he means that opaque cover that's on the phone when you unpack it.

Here's the link to the manual for those whose interested in going through it http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201309/20130917101650812/SM-N9005_UM_EU_Jellybean_Eng_Rev.1.1_130913.pdf

Exactly - the one with all the writing on.

I just ripped of the screen protector on mine - guess what? No "spriting" - Nice!

How is this for Screen-on time? Pushing it to the limits.

I've got hold of a nice little app called GreenPower.

Battery life is good. I've set up mine to connect to data network every 10 minutes for 1 minute or everytime I flip open my S-View Cover. Only 1% drain during night so I could've got a extra 6 to 7 hours maybe but I had to charge it when I got to bed because I had to be on the road early.

Small question... How long did the couriers take to deliver your phone...? From the time it was handed to the couriers to delivery?

Trying out the Google Experience Launcher on my N3. Quite sexy.

Tried this quite a few times, and everytime I insert a NTFS flash drive, it picks up the drive, but says it is unreadable.
FAT32 works perfectly though.
Google doesn't have any solutions either.

Ordered on the Monday the 4th delivered on the Thursday 14th. Courier called on the 13th to say they have it and will deliver within 3 working days

Ok thanks... My note was handed to the couriers yesterday evening, and got the sms to say 3 days, so I'm hoping today delivery...
