Went to Sprint and told them my pictures all had a green tint, and the screen was yellow and overall performance was laggy...all I had to show him was one green pic and he swapped the phone out. Told him battery was not that much better than the EVO and he gave me a new battery and let me keep my current battery.
Overall this phone is better. Screen is not a dull yellowish color, camera seems to be working, and the home screen lag is gone....
What HW version was your old one and what is your new one?
Most likely going to be a 0002
the green tint to the pictures is gone? mine is always doing that.
I didn't even think to look at the old HW version. This this one is 0002. The green tint is there for a second or 2 and after it auto focus, its gone. My old phone it just stayed green. And my grass looked like I was at the masters tournament and my grass don't look that damn good LOL
But the difference in scrolling through my home screens is a big difference. Even the guy there said it was pretty bad. I got the same widgets up now and its smooth

Oh and I couldn't run a live wallpaper at all. Phone would bog down. Now its running without a hitch so maybe I had a defective phone but now I'm not so tempted to turn this bad boy in like i was yesterday

good to know. i will have to take mine back tomorrow then. my phone also won't play the weather live wallpaper for more than 10 sec before it freezes up.
The live weather app stops after about 10 seconds. And restarts when you turn the screen back on fyi

The weather wallpaper does? That kids defeats the purpose of it being a live wallpaper doesn't it?
Also anyone have the little menu that allows you to select live,HTC,or gallery wallpaper have a distorted glitch as it pops up? Also when I click on HTC wallpaper and it brings up the previews of the wallpapers it takes a long time for them all to show up. It's almost like It's downloading them over a slow connection.
I'm just trying to figure this out before I take my phone back here in a couple hours.

I'd say over 5sec the first time I look at them. Sometimes they don't even come up and I just give up all together. Also I constantly ha e stuff stop working and i have to reboot the phone. Like right now when i get a new email the notification tone isn't working. I'm not going to reboot the phone tho I'm going to show it to the Sprint store.

Mine still does this. You would assume that a dual core with 1 gb of RAM wouldn't have these kinda delays. I.get the glitch in the menu as well. Think that's all software related. Hopefully there is a fix soon to knock out the kinks

i was going to take mine in today but i didn't have time. no reboot and now all the sudden the e-mail notification sound is working. all the bugs with this phone really suck.
So is there a way to disable the dropdown notification when phone is in the lock screen. Settings, Mod? I know if I set up a screen lock I'll achieve what I want but I don't want that.

When in my pocket.
Picture this, I listen to music all day receive a lot of text and emails. The notification bar sometimes slides down and starts either calling or getting into menus, recent apps, etc.. This happens whenever the phone is woken up in my pocket only Sometimes im doing some carrying and or weird body positiones and the phones power button will get pushed waking the phone and down goes the notification bar.
Makes sense? I'm sure I'm not the only one. Besides what's the point of it being a "lock screen" if it doesn't lock??

The screen is capacitive. That means it should not react to your pocket, if I understand capacitive correctly. It's not like a touch sensitive device. It needs an electric charge to activate the touch screen (the charge from your fingers). I've not had mine react in my pocket.

I just went back stock and updated today and can confirm it's no longer there. I noticed the same with the ICS leaks that have been out recently but just thought it was something to do with being a leak.
Unfortunate, I really liked that feature.

Do you all really not look in the market or on google for apps or do you just come here for answers cause you don't wanna take the time to look? Here is an app that does exactly what you want. You can control brightness by swipeing the top, bottom or side, your choice. It can also bee seen or you can make the bar transparent https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.DisplayBrightness&hl=en
There is another app, Notification Toggle which mimics that of the 15 toggle mod that we were seeing around a bit before. You can put it in your status bar so all you do is pull down and set brightness from there plus a whole mess of other stuff.
Hope you enjoy.

There has to be a setting somewhere in the code that wakes the screen up for these texts. Has to be. It doesn't just do it because it does it.
Someone will find it, and make it bend to their will. Just give it time.

I decompiled it earlier to look at.
There is no bools.xml so its going to be in a method.
I'll know more once I locate it.
The method that ive been using is this:
Disable sms notification on the native app
Install sms popup
Uncheck the popup when recieved option on sms popup
Configure the rest of the settings
(500ms for light, 5000ms for off time)
???
Profit.

The solution I found that worked for me was to disable all the notifications in the stock messaging app and have light flow control the sound and led notification. I've had light flow on my other Samsung phones and it's proved to be a great investment. Now whenever I get a text i get my sound and my led lights up red and stays on. much better on battery.

A big reason I want it to not pop up, cause I feel that's why my light flow isn't working cause I have it set so screen on makes the notification go away. I don't always want to have to open the app, but want the light gone.

I can confirm this works on my Verizon note 2 stock root.
I just simple replaced the secmms.apk all rebooted and when I get a text my screen doesn't turn on and I still get the notification light
I have literally had my phone for less than a few hours. But I thought it would be a great idea to share likes and dislikes.
Little bit of background, I am coming from a Note 2, so most of my likes/dislikes will be catered toward the upgrade from the Note 2.
Likes -
Mostly Everything LOL,
the screen resolution
the vibrant colors,
super fast,
the plethora of options,
blocking mode finally works,
no wifi nag notification,
wifi toggle works.
Dislikes -
The internet browser no longer sync with google,
can not use multiple lock screen widgets w/password or pattern lock,
4x4 grid on touchwiz (will be switching to nova).
I will update my list once I get to fully dive in. But so far 9.9999999999/10
I had mine for about an half hour. The best thing so far to me is the settings screen is 1 menu instead of 4 tabs . Sometimes its just the little things
Loving mostly everything, but again have only messed with it for a short time.
Only gripes so far is font sizes and in general DPI is just way too big and obnoxious. And lag when typing on the keyboard.
Let's go root!

Agree with pretty much all of the likes so far, which is mostly everything about the device. My 4G speeds seem to have improved too.
Some nitpicks:
-new S-Pen feels much cheaply made than Note 2's
-Flipbook keeps getting activated when I hit the home button and accidentally brush by the screen
-Screen brightness range is WAY TOO SMALL (minimum brightness is too bright)
Several complains: desktop view does not stay on. I do not see the Note 2 developers options. I cannot remove the Verizon bookmarks as I was able to do before and restore from a save.
I think u have to tap on something in the menu 7 times to get dev options to show up. Saw it in a review somewhere
