bored with ics with no greate feature

Lets start another whining thread, we didn't have enough of those already

We must have a new section in the GALAXY Note forum for those who expected a kitchen sink alongwith the ICE Cream Sandwich update.

Too much wining about ICS....

Ok, what did you people expected from it?? Whole new UI, faster, newer and better apps?? The whole android has guidelines, on GB people complained about this and that ICS is just an enhanced version of GB.....

Samsung could have made a new TW, i second that. And if it wasn't for "the bug" i know many of you would have already flashed a rom if it wasn't for that.
You can still flash and if you're careful you don't end up with a bricked note.

Come on look ate android versions before this, don't you all see improvements??
In my opinion android OS has com a very long way in a very short time. I don't want to make comparissons but IOS (apple) is using the same layout for years and although people are complaining they still don't change it !!! Look at symbian: i don't like it at all, things are not going well with it... If you just take a look at other OS'S you'll see that android is the one that evolved the most..

If you can customize it fully (with rom or apps) why the wining about it ???

Battery life on this kind of devices has and will be always the problem, we just have to accept that we have to charge it according to our use, once a day is acceptable (we do sleep don't we???) and there is no reason to turn the phone off during the charging process.......

I for one don't have many problems with ICS, i hust have to manage the battery life during the day according to my needs. I always have two chargers and a car charger so if i need to charge for an hour (or two) there is no problem.

Use it and don't make such a big problem of it.....

Ok, start the flaming or just say "thanks"

Sorry, but the problem with the open source ROMs for this and other phones is that you lose hardware functionality (camera / FM radio / S-Pen, for example). And I'm not buying a $700 device to then install an operating system that does not allow me to use all it's hardware.

Well, just to add to all the other whines and whinges, here's mine. ICS and the Samsung marketing campaign is the best bull**** rollout I've seen in a long time, and Samsung are to be congratulated. Seriously. Apart from a few extra menu options in settings and the like, stuff which no one really cared about anyway, because they could do what the had to do under GB, what has ICS really given us? We got, wait for it,........the "PREMIUM SUITE" ya!! Now come on guys, be honest, after getting ICS, how many of you searched your home screen, then scrutinised your apps, then searched all the folders looking for the "PREMIUM SUITE". hehe. Its not there, or rather it is, it's the S-NOTE!! wow, a memo app and a frigging stick to poke the screen with. Thats the hyped feature we all swallowed. Anyone tried the stick? I did for a laugh. I've actually got eight S-PENs and I've had them since birth, four on each hand + a thumb each side. I don't call them S-PENs, I call them fingers and they do near enough the same job, plus lots of other things.

Yet, Samsung forgot to mention the awesome screen (that scratches very easily), and they also forgot the magnificent video and stills camera (if you can get one without the pink dot). They also forgot to mention that it's still one of the fastest dual core powered phones (If you come across one that isn't croaked by ICS and knackered battery life, that is), and what about the marvellous screen resolution, pin sharp (really great if the screen doesn't flicker like a badly tuned CRT telly). I guess I'm starting to realise why Samsung didn't include all those features in its headline marketing. All they were left with, was a plastic stick or S-PEN as they call it, and a crappy memo app called the "PREMIUM SUITE". That's it!! They have blown a whole multi-national corporation marketing budget on a plastic stick. AND we bought it, hook line and sinker. That, my friends, is what we call a marketing coup. Apple must be furious at being out done by a stick, not even out ranked by build quality, reliability, functionality, or anything really, just a frigin stick. AND, I'll bet Samsung has a patent, and will sue Apple if they ever, ever, dream of putting a stick on the iPhone. But then all iPhone needs do, is give away a free Biro with every 'phone, and that's Samsung out the window.

If you ever get annoyed buy someone at the office poking their 'Note with the stick, holding up a meeting, or interrupting a conversation, by doing something they can do faster with pen and paper, do mankind a favour, punch them......very,very, hard.

I award Samsung Marketing the BigstarryNight 'BullShitters of the Year' award.

Amen.
