So this guy i work with tells me he was talking to 2 guys who work down the street at CDW. Apparently they both had Notes. But, they somehow managed to be running Honeycomb on them. Possible? Now this guy I work with knows cell phones pretty good so I have no reason to doubt him but I figured I'd ask anyway.

On our international notes we can run ICS in tablet mode complete with the bottom task bar and soft buttons which is probably what you saw

I was told it was 3.3.6 firmware. Does that make sense?

No sir. Honeycomb only came in 3.0, 3.0.1, 3.1 and 3.2 I believe.
3.2.6 was released last month - for a Xoom connectivity issue.

First of all,: have seen my brothers galaxy nexus and I haven't notice any of the problems you mentioned.
Secondly, No Galaxy Note doesn't have much of hardware issue other than some people complaining about black corners.
Just bad part with the Note for now is Gingerbread and Touxhwiz.
And after a week of use, with perfect size of device you won't even like to look at any small devices.

A lot of people seem to have varying problems on xda. Some people complain of laggy screens and low quadrant scores, so you might want to run a quadrant and make sure it exceeds 3000.
Another issue is the black clipping/crush some people are experiencing with dark wallpapers and videos. Run this YouTube video to test for this problem:

Lagging is just bcoz of gingerbread.
All should go away as soon as ICS update comes.
And black clipping crush is whatever I don't see it as deal breaker issuse and doesn't bother to many of us.

I actually have little to no lag at all using saurom with ADWex and overclocked at 1.83ghz. I just wanted to let him know what some users are complaining about on stock right out of the box.

Black crush is when very dark images transitioning to lighter darks or other colors are very blocky. It is very notable on the devices that have it, I'm fortunate enough to not have it
Just run that YouTube video and see if it runs clear and smooth or very blocky.

Odin is very simple to use. And if you look in the development section there was a flash counter reset for ATT notes just posted today. I'm sure they'll have all the Canadian versions up before the day is over.

NO, IT IS NOT NORMAL. There is an issue with the gnote and its black's. I would like to say 8 of 10 ppl are dealing with it. You can see the black blotch is very clear on the right side of your picture. No phone should do this. A fix should be coming with ICS, I hope

There is no guarentee that there will be a fix for ICS. Most likely, we will have to deal with it.

Yes it is this bad. Mine is the same or worse on ics.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Yes its pretty bad. The lower the brightness the more visible it is on my note. Its kind of a buzkill when looking at my wifes HOXL and seeing perfect blending and no blotchy blacks.
Its gotta be a software issue, cuz I think I read somewhere the one x and note use the same panel tech right?
Sent from my SGH-I717R using xda premium
Sadly, the black crush problem, or "black clipping," is a very well known issue on both the i717 and n7000 Notes. It doesn't look like the official ICS update is going to fix the problem, but at least one n7000 developer, Supercurio, says he may be able to fix it once we have the official ICS source code.
Even though the problem affects nearly every Note, Samsung has never even acknowledged that the problem exists.
Keep your fingers crossed...
I've just received a system update just a few moments ago. I tought it would be jelly bean..lol. wishful thinking.

It seems like the screen flicker issue is reduced. I've been playing with it for a few hours and the flicker is nowhere near as bad as it used to be. Will wait and see over the next few days though.
Unfortunately the update didn't hit me, yet. However, can you guys look if the wifi drops are sorted out? Maybe even, if write rights for the SD are finally available?
Looking forward to the update ^o^
BTW: where are you guys, receiving the update, from? Are you 3G or wifi only?

Can anyone confirm what is new though, as the list of changes is nothing new?

Malaysia, wifi only model.
1. I still dont have write rights, still cant delete my files in the sd card using third party apps.
2. as for wifi, mine is set to never switch off but it still does when in sleep mode. However, if im downloading something, the wifi will stay connected even if the device is sleeping. I think that is a development. Previously, my download will be cut off whnever the device sleeps.

Hello,
I dunno if it's my phone but it seems happening with all batteries : At some point battery will drop from ~50% to ~14%, recently it always happen @the same time : when the phone reboot. What does it make you think? Could it be phone hardware defect? Hope not..!
Thanks.

Its a hardware defect on all S2 handsets. Can't be help, sorry. Only advice I can give is not to reboot ( if below 40% battery).
