Recently with fortnite coming out on Android(Samsung exclusively) I've seen a few questions being thrown around on how to trick the phone into thinking what model it is. Now, I have gone to build.prop to change my device model to SM-N960F, but I'd like advice on what else I should try changing. My goal is to try and gain an exclusive skin that is being offered for playing on the note 9 or Samsung Galaxy tab s4.

I've posted this thread in the Galaxy Note Section as well because I don't know where it belongs. I'm sorry for troubling you guys please can someone please please help me?
Hi Everyone,
I'm torn between buying one of the two super phones: Samsung Galaxy Note and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus / Google Nexus Prime.
I've done some research using Google about the phones.
ht tp://ww w.androidauthority. com/galaxy-note-vs-galaxy-s2-vs-galaxy-nexus-the-best-of-the-best-32011/
ht tp:/ /social-catalog. com/samsung-galaxy-note-vs-google-nexus-prime
ht tp:/ /versusio. com/en/google-nexus-prime-vs-samsung-galaxy-note
It is my understanding that the Note is superior from what I have understood:
1. Bigger Screen of the Note makes it really awesome visually
2. Marginally better resolution for the Note as well
3. MUCH longer battery life on the Note although it said it is because of the screen size which begs me to ask: does that mean in effect it will be the same as the Nexus Prime's?
4. Note will also get upgraded to ICS
5. Note and NP have both got great screens - Super AMOLED
6. Galaxy Note has a better camera
7. Galaxy Note does or does not have a MICRO SD slot? I have read mixed reports on this. But, I am assuming both have that option of expandable memory. Am I correct?
Given all this I am concluding that the Note is a much better phone.
Am I right? Or am I missing something crucial? I don't "have" to buy a phone right now so is there another better phone with quad core coming out? I don't want to buy the phone and then 2 months later or in Q2 2012 have a new Quad core phone come out.
What do you guys think?
Please help me out here
Hello
I was a happy owner of Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and I sold it yesterday but it was too big for my palm
Now I would like to buy a new phone and I cannot decide which one.
I am between Galaxy S5 and Nexus 6 and I cannot make up my mind.
To be honest I'm tired of Samsung Phones, I started with Samsung Galaxy S GT9000, then S2 then Galaxy Core then Galaxy Grand, Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy Note 3 and I'm really tired of Samsung and I hate Knox which voids your warranty if you install a custom rom or you modify your system and the Samsung Bloatware
However the phones were masterpieces in terms of performance and the support of custom roms was magnificent and S5 would be at least that good.
I'm really excited with Nexus 6 because Nexus devices are known for their Clean Android experience, the instant updates and Nexus 6 will be a high end experience.
I would like your suggestions and help me decide which phone should I buy.
Also please, if you have any other phone to recommend, please do so, I would like to check it out
200% you can go for nexus6 ....
Samsung never gives update at proper time like nexus devices
For every android version Samsung plan new device and for pushing new device they delays updates for old one
But nexus is not like that within some days you will get update when gogle release new firmware
Custom ROM support for nexus devices is great compared to that of Samsung devices .....only thing that nexus devices will not have some advanced touch wiz features like note series has .....

I had a Samsung Galaxy S2 and Note 2 and I have the Nexus 5 since November, 2013.
I recommend you the Nexus 6 as your next device. Why? Because the price-quality ratio is awesome, no bloatwares, no Knox, the latest Android versions, the best UX I have ever seen and a wonderful XDA community

I always had the thought that Samsung rushed the Note 7 so they can better focus on the S8 lineup which'll actually be a huge game changer compared to S7E and Note 7. Does anyone know what would likely happen to rooted device if this recall does happen?

Believe they will just exchange any Note 7 on the spot with your receipt, dun think will go through your phone. They do not have time to do that after angering all their users.
Let’s forget the promo of the new Gear VR and the MicroSD card 256GB for the owners the previous Galaxy Note range ...... Let’s forget that I should have to receive the Note 7 three days before the official release ... Let’s forget that for 11 days my pre-order was stuck in limbo in an order development phase.....
After this I call the Call Center .... arrogant, overbearing, without the slightest empathy ... they tell me that I will receive a refund within 7 days if I cancel my order, because no one knows to tell you when the Note 7 will be available, then I receive an email confirmation That I canceled my order and… surprise surprise: "the credit to your account may take up to 14 days".
All in all I'm lucky, because my girlfriend bought it through the bank, and she already paid the first instalment ... and surprise surprise AGAIN..... The Call Center says to her: "You have to have patience, you have to wait" For HOW LONG?
Finally I with the Galaxy S7 Edge Galaxy Note 5 am done with SAMSUNG, I had all the Galaxy S line, the entire Galaxy Note line…...
But the Galaxy S7 Edge and Galaxy Note 5 were my LAST SAMSUNG products.
All this being said, anyone from Europe, in fact worldwide let’s join forces on social media and shame them.
PM ME PLEASE

TZ back with another video, this time i am looking at alternative smartphones for the Samsung Galaxy Note 7, due to battery explosions, 2 recalls and major safety concerns the Note 7 has finally been killed off and production stopped completely. Due to a mandatory recall i have returned my Note 7 and many of you are in the same position as me, what now? Well all Note 7 owners know that no other phone can compete for features so lets look at the best of the rest. What are you replacing your Note 7 with? LG V20? Moto Z, Pixel XL? iPhone 7 Plus? Nexus 6P? Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge? Honor Note 8? Chinese phones like Xiaomi? OnePlus 3? HTC 10? Note 5? What did you pick and why?

Dear readers!
I want to run galaxy store and some other galaxy app on my redmi note 7, but I can't get it to work. Obviously, my phone is rooted, and I edited the build.prop to a galaxy s10's build.prop, but it always says that incompatibility stuff. Please, help me.
This will never happen. The frameworks are not the same.
