Under Settings -> Personal there is One-handed Operation. I don't think it does what you're describing, but I think it shifts certain elements like the keyboard to one side to make it easier to use with one hand. Might at least help some.

AndreiLux from the Perseus Kernel said to ignore whether it says "sane" or not and only look at the version. The eMMC chip you have on the CLN is the same as mine (I've had no issues but that obviously doesn't mean anything). I got my phone at the end of December; I wonder if the early batches...

adrynalyne, did your stock phone have the emmc that was reported to have the issue, VTU00M revision 0xf1, or did it have a different emmc chip? If other emmcs are affected beyond the one that was the problem in the gs3 that makes things scarier because not all note 2s have that chip.

If you root and do custom roms you should do FAT32 because not all kernels (both for recoveries and for roms) have a good exFAT driver. TWRP, for example, doesn't support exFAT at all last I checked, so you wouldn't be able to read/write roms and backups from your SD card if you use TWRP with an...

This is a kernel for TouchWiz ROMs and won't be compatible with AOSP-based ROMs. So, no.

I'm occasionally getting nasty kernel wakelock while sleeping. I live in an area where I can occasionally pick up the edge of 4g, so sometimes my phone switches back and forth between 3g and 4g, I don't know if that's what's causing it? Anectodally, that usually happens ever half hour-45 min...

For what it's worth, arbitrary code execution is a pretty serious vulnerability. Obviously it's often what allows devs to do what they do, but most sane software devs don't intentionally leave major security holes in their product. It might look like Samsung/VZW is "out to get you" or some such...

No reboots yet since 30.1, everything's been good. Just flashed 31.2. Not sure if the eMMC type/revision just depends on the batch, or maybe different batches were for different carriers (I'm on VZW), but I have a completely different type. Type: MAG4FB FwRev: 0xf7 Obviously it's not the...

Do you have anything else you could try syncing your phone to in order to see if it only happens with your car or if it happens with anything? Might be a decent first step. I had a similar issue on one of my old phones but chalked it up to the bluetooth adapter in my laptop because it would...

Couple things. First, the reference thread linked in the OP is better for posting bugs than this one if you think you're having an actual issue. If you get a random reboot, do a cat /proc/last_kmsg and output it to a text file, then upload it to that thread. That will provide the dev with a log...

I've had charging problems but only with the Samsung stock AC/USB adapter part of the charger. I use the same cable with a different AC plug and the phone charges fine. With the stock one it'll charge for about 5-10 minutes and then just stop.. if I unplug it for awhile it will charge again, but...

I'm sure you could Odin a factory image and probably be fine, but I'd exchange it. No reason to take a chance on a brand new device before messing around with it IMO. If it doesn't even work out of the box, I'd be skeptical.

I'm sure you're looking for a headset, but figured it's worth mentioning that bluetooth calls work fine using Sync in my Ford Focus.

I've had two reboots in about a week on my Verizon Note II. I was traveling when I got the first one and so couldn't pull a last_kmsg for you, but I got one this time. Running on the stock settings from the kernel flash, no changing stepping or voltage in STweaks, stock clock speed. For what...

I also had an issue with the Wifi Tether app. If you select it in aroma when flashing the ROM it installs to /system/app and would constantly FC if you tried to start tethering. I removed it from there (had to remount and rm it, wouldn't let me through the uninstaller), installed the latest...
