Heard it actually kills battery... Would like to try it out tho
No Its good at eliminated the drain that the mobile data puts on the battery very well . While letting you use internet when you need it . I use it in conjunction with system tuner on speed Rom .

The paid version is worth it. I have been using it for a while now .
I have the paid version as well, I bought it earlier last year from the Android market, when I got my Nexus One. I use it from time to time on my Amaze, when I know I'm gonna be out for awhile and don't want to lug the charger around and it works fantastic ... Usually get anywhere from 1.75x - 2.35x the increase in battery life. Juice Defender, the free one, works pretty good but you can't customize any thing, and that's where you can tweak what you want to keep (power wise) and what Apps are able to run in the background or connect to the internet with certain apps but deny others. It can train to learn which is your home wifi network so that when you get close to home (GPS located) it will kick on your Wi-Fi and switch over and turn off mobile automatically so you don't have to remember ... Then when you leave home it will automatically turn Wi-Fi off when you step out the door and away from home so you don't drain battery constantly searching for wireless networks in the background.
So yes, Juice Defender Ultimate is highly recommended!

I use the paid version and its highly recommeneded . I don't usually have that 20% drain when the phone is in my pocket . plus my mobile data doesn't cut on until I use selected apps . make sure you disable mobile data for apps like settings .... Your launcher .... Etc . I'm still mad I've never known about this app until now .

JDU is awesome..it's made a huge difference since day 1...I'm still trying to get the best settings without sacrificing connectivity/productivity...and I could probably get close to 20 hours running all the way down to 0% with moderate use.
Are you using the free version of Juice Defender? Or are you using the Ultimate?
Ultimate...some people report oustanding battery life. Like 14 hours of use and sitting at 60%. I dont buy it..unless they post their battery use screens. They are probably not even touching their phone...also they might count 7-8hrs of airplane mode. I just updated to 198_7...i am running typical days use and will post findings!

No problem...I followed this setup..but not sure if it's the best:

I would imagine every new Note owner goes through a period where people comment on the size of the note. My daughter posted on Facebook, that "I'm out of control." My wife calls it a Pop Tart. I'd like to think they're all just a bit jealous that I can read ebooks and watch TV or movies without squinting.
Anyway, a few rookie questions if you wouldn't mind:
I'm running Only One on my ATT I717 and love it, but trying to learn about modems. Is there a tutorial?
Also, is there a good GPS progam? I had TomTom on my 3GS but doesn't look like it's offered for Android.
Thanks
I prefer Navigon for gps. Most feautures and best forming. 2 others to look at are Ndrive and Sygic. What do you need to know about modems? Not much to tell unless you are running the phone on T-mobile. Looks like you might be since you mentioned 3gs. If you do then this thread might get you started. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1573568
Thanks. I had an IPhone 3GS with TomTom.
Is 4G the same as LTE on ATT.
There's a thread about boosting data speed and they refer to UCLE2, 5, etc. Does this apply to ATT, or only T-Mobile?
I've heard a bit about Navigon and it seems solid but the reviews it gets don't seem all that reassuring for me to spend that kind of money. Google's navigation app has worked great for me and does more than enough. I've also used Waze. It's got a clean interface and nice traffic info plus it's free!

4G and LTE are totally different. 4G is an improved version of 3G. LTE is another technology. Not all areas have LTE.

If you have a data connection the Google is great. Waze looks ok but it needs data also and has all that social integration. Guessing this app is hard on the Note's battery. How does it run for you? If you want an offline gps app then you need to fork out the dough. No app is perfect for everyone and reviews are tough on paid gps apps. Navigon gets it done especially when you are in an area with no data.
I use Map Quest for gps works great and it's free.

Waze hasn't taxed my battery too bad but I can see how it would become a bit of a hog. True, I could do without the social integration as well but it isn't too bad. I've since resorted soley on the Google navigation app. I hear you about the offline capabilities, Navigon would be nice to have when data isn't available. I rarely don't have access to data so that hasn't posed much of a problem for me with gps. You're right, the choice definitely depends on the person.

Where ever I am around ppl I don't know or friends that havent seen my phone yet whenever I get it out the immediately ask if its a tablet or a phone...I'm kinda starting to get annoyed lol.
I was using Google maps walking navigation today...first time on this phone...on Rodeo Dr. in Beverly Hills. I know the accurancy is great (for whatever reason ICS is taking longer to get a lock), but I was stunned that the arrow was precisely where I was walking but the compass is crazy sensitive, looked like I was walking sideways at times.
So yea that's my little non helpful blurb on the subject...I should probably go to sleep since its 3am and I'm ranting...

My wife calls it my Kindle.
Google maps is getting offline capabilities soon. At that point there won't be any need for another app.
One thing I have noticed is that my phone seems to be spying on my activities.
My phone knows where I work and when I work and get off. It tells me my commute time and etc. One time it told me when/where my girlfriend works when I was taking her on the regular. I checked National games for the sake of metro and its the phone has started to give me MLB game times and scores. I had a time when my phone gave me an alert to attend a cookout from my car insurance company. It had emailed me this weeks in advanced. I also get advertisements for games I have looked at that pop up.
Is the Android/Google taking it too far by monitoring your activities?
It's called Google Now. Good news? It's working as it's supposed to. Disable it if you're paranoid.

I don't really get what the problem is. It isn't like it's harming you, if anything, it is making your life easier.
Google goes through tons of security and they've even said that the only thing that sees the information is their algorithms. I mean, when's the last time you've heard about Google being hacked?
But like WolfePack said, you can always disable it.

aside from google now if you're getting pop up advertisements for games, or notifications that advertise things, it's because you have a ****ty adware app that you need to block or uninstall.

Welcome to the age of data mining. You can turn off location services under settings. Also turn off report usage or anything worded like that in the apps you use.

I recently bought a Nexus 4 and I would like to avoid losing it.
I'm very careful, but being it an object of 350 bucks, I would like to be extremely careful.
Does anyone had a good experience with an app and can suggest it? I have no problem in spending some money on it, but it must work with/without internet connection (so I can save my phone with an sms if there isn't internet connection).
Actually I found "Locate My Droid" but I noticed there are various apps of this type, so before buying a PRO version I would like to know some well known names where I can choose from.
