Instead of wasting the time by creating this thread you could have easily read the feedback in CheckROM thread.
《tapatalked from galaxy s3》
Yeah why do you expect users to waste their time to answer your thread if you can't even bother to do some reading yourself? It's like standing in a red light and ask the car beside you like "dude.. Is it green yet? I don't want to waste my time to look.." you would do that? Or sitting in a restaurant and ask the table side of yours if it's any good because even if you have the plate with the exact same food on yours.. You are to lazy to just try?

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.

Has anyone noticed odd lines going diagonally through some icons and play store?
Edit : when I run quadrant I get really bad artifacts on the square part of the stairs.
Could it be a driver issue?
Should I return it as a malfunctioning device?

If you would ac tally read the op you would've seen its not only icons. I also get it on pics and get bad artifacts in games. So if your looking to get sarcastic take it somewhere else.

Definitely not a driver issue... It's the GPU failing to render. I recommend exchanging it while you still can, even under severe stress mine does not do anything like that. I'm sad for you mate. What carrier you on?

Apparently you need a hug, there was nothing sarcastic about it. Im sitting here waiting for my phone to come in a couple weeks and seeing someone post graphics issues is unsettling. Of course i read the op, but the point was on the screenshot it is specific to the icons,whatever it is does not impact the background or other graphical parts on the screen which makes me think its not necessarily hardware.

Ty for the input. And my apologies if there was nothing sarcastic intended.
And I'm on AT&T.
Maybe that is the reason the AT&T store said it was a return of a preordered device and allowed me to buy it in store yesterday.
Just stressing out about it a bit.

Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone here could confirm a small, miniscule, almost-non-existent issue I found with this beautiful device. The left (Menu) touch button seems to be every-so-slightly faded compared to the right (Back) touch button. I haven't been able to find any pictures, or take a picture of mine (no camera around at the moment) to show what I mean. It's almost ridiculous that I am spending my time and energy in typing about this, but I would just like to know if this is normal and not something that is unique to mine. Besides, I think it gives it a bit of a personality (like Nemo and his fin).
Unique to yours.

Not even sure what you mean to be honest.

I haven't noticed any issues in any case. I don't think I'd really care. I'm more inclined to worry about signs I've used it! (microscopic scratches that you can't see from anything but the most obscure of angles etc.)

And using the front camera to take a picture in a mirror won't work because....? Use your imagination.
I'm not actually endorsing that (though the front camera is actually not bad, so it could work with enough light), and I'm sure that's not what was meant by that post, but if you're gonna be a **** about it...

Well considering the problem is one button is slightly faded compared to the other and the lackluster FFC, I wouldn't assume that would produce anything useful. I said a picture with clarity.
It was an honest question. Obviously he can use the FFC but he is talking about something so slight it likely won't be captured with the FFC.

I know I know. I was replying solely to the quoted comment.
About that post anyway, I'm just hoping whoever (s)he is, is trying to make some sort of sarcastic statement about semantics, since the original post said "no camera around" as opposed to "no other camera around". I'm hoping that's what the post's intention was.
Oh how I hope...

yes this is an issue and it also exists in my phone. i got my first S3 and it had lots of glue marks on the screen and the menu led was placed a bit above where it should be causing its light to come on the screen from inside of the scree. i got that set changed with a new one and now rest of the issues are gone but yes the menu led is a bit faded.

Thank you for keeping this thread on-topic. Yeah, it doesn't bother me at all. Just thought I'd inquire.
Greetings. Some of you may have remembered me before, I asked some users here about their experiences with their gs3. Now, I'm about to get my own too So now I want to know, what exact defects or things do I have to check first before deciding which unit to get? Or are there certain serial numbers for units which I have to avoid?

So? I'm asking which things to check first, as based on experience, the One series from HTC has faulty units that has serial numbers starting from sh24 or earlier batches. Things like THESE are what I was asking about and what the hell does it compare to, to a girl? Please don't go off topic and be serious in answering questions. If you have nothing right to say then simply shut up

AFAIK, there isn't something like a faulty batch, there are for sure some reports about issues, but all minor like a yellow tint at white backgrounds or black dots on the screen in dark light conditions with black background (you won't notice it if you don't try to find it) or cracked screen because of clumsy use (but would recommend a case or pouch anyway).
The only real issue (not minor and not user related) I know about has been a charging issue, where the phone could only be charged over pc connection and not with wall charger, but there weren't many having this problem.
Look around and check the threads, could be I missed something, but I guess nothing major.

Now that is what I'm talking about. Thank you. Yes, I have been lurking in all the threads here but I just created a new thread about it as I fear there might have been a few things that I could have missed.
hey all, so ill most likely be driving down to the SGS4 event (as long as my boss lets me take the day off work lol). so I figured I'd ask my home section here on xda what you guys want me to find out. most tech sites will prolly cover the main stuff, hw specs and all that. I mean ill get all that stuff too, but ask me about stuff they prolly won't check.
@supercurio you want me to check any sound stuff? <- lol someone pass that along
anyways ill make a list, and update it on here on what all you guys care about me checking out. i figure if I get the list started now I can do whatever necessary prepwork.
List:

If it's possible could you look for ink spots if using AMOLED or colour tints? Possible black crush test would be handy too.
Not sure if this is at all possible at such an event but would be cool to know
Battery matters, would you check how long you can watch videos from YouTube on 4G with max brightness please? Cheers
