Dears,
Plz i need help , i have HTC desire s and need to buy a modern tablet but have no experience about samsung products , i heared about samsung note 10.1 N8000 16 GB , is it nice and good to buy ??
another question , can i install applications in SD card like HTC or only on internal memory ?
i mean is the 16 GB one is enough or your advise to buy the 32 GB one ?
thanks in advance and appreciate your response
Get 32gb one.... Though you can use a 64gb card and using a mod use that as your internal memory...
Depending on how you use it depends on whether you should get or not. If you have a need for the s-pen then yes, its a good thing to get but if you aren't going to use this AWESOME feature there are other items that do everything else for cheaper.
Oh, and if you want phone functionality in a tablet the SG Note 10.1 (N8000 only) is the only tab that does this out there natively using a sim card.
I have the 16gb,but I would also recommend that you get the 32

Please do yourself a favor and get the 32gig Note, and stay away from the 16gig Note. If your internal memory fills up, bad things will happen to you. So, please go buy the 32gig model, okay?

i'm totally pleased with your reply , thanks alot , i have proceeded in ordering the 32 GB one , many thanks for all of you
32gb. Gratz and welcome.
Any insider info on when the 32gb version will be out? 9gb of 16gb of usable space is not enough. I have my 64gb external but use that for other files. Come on att let's release a date at least. .

It's not only AT&T, it seems it can't be found anywhere yet.
I'm also waiting for the 32Gb version.
I agree--haven't looked hard but see no dates
Am looking at this phone for me and my son on att and no more internal option than 16gb in 2013 is not acceptable. Understand it has 64gb sdcard available. But not all apps are put there. And I have no experience with Samsung devices to know how or if they handle apps to sd.
Also, can't figure out why they put the darn speaker on back/bottom of phone.
They are making it hard to buy it--imho and what I want from the phone--

Why should we have to root etc after spending so much money. And rooting method has problems.
We need 32gb or 64gb.

Not familiar with it but will check it out---been a long time since I had to use something like that.
Heard of some methods that don't require root, but not sure if they have any issues.
I have been able to make my One S work with 16gb, but limited on music/photos/movie storage. Just think price is too high for 16gb--oh well. There may be no issue anyway--
Of course a 32gb model would eliminate that--hope to hear of a date for one--

No apps install to the external card. Only the internal storage paths. Sdcard0 is where extra data goes beyond secure core data for app installs.

Some apps check for root and then wont work. Google Play rented movies wont work on a rooted device. There is always a trade off with rooting and not rooting.
Can't believe they didn't launch the 32gig as standard!

Fair point, considering it should work out of box and not have to jump through hoops to make it so. That said, it is ironic being root shy in this type of forum Must admit I agree and have not rooted the S3 since owning it. Worked fine since launch
Looks like I might be holding on to my 32gb S3 a lot longer than planned. Six of my Gameloft games will tap out the 9gb of storage.
Sad that even their own sales staff rebuttals on no 32gb version is you can install your apps to the Sd card and cloud. I am not kidding, since heard this line from two Verizon stores, one Att store and Verizon customer service. Lame and sad.
It sucks hearing about pepple getting their s4 soon and im going to have to wait until the 32gb comes out.
I have 16gb on my note 2 and its not too bad but if get a movie and updates to apps etc..you constantly have to keep moving it to sd card. When running to near capacity a lot it just seems like it runs a hair slower. Having more space will help.
Come on att release at least by june!!!! Im itching to back to the baby brother.

Here in South Africa Samsung only stocked 32GB variant
I don't get why they give you guys a 16GB model, but then again here in SA we are paying +$1000 sim free for it, got mine for the equivalent of $1060.
For those interested, the 32GB has around 23GB left over for the user.
Lucky you

Because US carriers like to screw their customers over, gouge them and Samsung doesn't care.
Oh and Verizon has confirmed they will NOT sell the 32GB SGS4. ATT is the only one with the "coming soon" comment on the ordering page that we know is going to offer it.
Hi, a friend received from his cousin, as gift a "galaxy s4" but after he asked me to take a look at it, I said him that phone is a fake one.
Now I want to ask you what can I do for him, because he doesn't want to sell it.
Can I flash the official firmware and ROM ? what about the rooting method ?
The phone is smaller than the real one, has the air gestures but they work only on the home and app screen(not in webpages, etc), is micro-sim also.
Also you can see from the pictures the result of Antutu Benchmark test and other pictures that may help you.

If its a knock off s4 you can't use ANY ROMs or mods that were designed for the s4. Its got different hardware so any s4 ROMs won't work and could brick it.
There likely aren't rooting methods available because there isn't a big developer following to create rooting methods.
The software it has now is the software the device will have forever.

Bin it. Tell the friend to slap his cousin.
Thanks, he thinks even his cousin didn'nt knew the phone is fake.
I thought flashing other firmware would make sensors to work better.Thank you for the answers.
The IMEI number belongs to NOKIA 1661. lol
Why not let him use it if it's a gift. It's not like who purchased it got cheated. May be his friend knew he is buying fake one.
Wow that's the best fake product I've ever seen. Find out where he got it and beg to import a lot
Wow antutu scores not bad for a replica if its a real score. I've seen some knock offs with modified antutu scores. But if that score is real, its actually not bad, Galaxy S3 range.

He means the phone is forcing a fake score, not that you photo shopped the image and changed the numbers. A phone can manipulate benchmarking scores by over performing in the tested areas briefly, without giving any real world performance boosts.
Even TouchWiz does this.
Its one of many reasons why benchmark scores are utterly pointless and meaningless.
As for the device and what to do with it...again...you won't be able to modify it without figuring out how to root it and build custom roms for it yourself. There won't be any ready to go software for it. Use it as is and enjoy. Could make a great backup phone, or spare to use when you are going somewhere a more expensive phone might get broken. (I always keep my last phone handy for when I go to the amusement park or something)

Ok, but why are the sensors working only on the home screen and app screen ? I think if are there, something cand be to work properly.

Because its a fake. Its not a great phone. Things don't work right on fakes. There is no way around this. No matter how much you try to convince yourself this thing is as good as a real s4 its not. Accept it and see the phone for what it is...a decent wifi device for web browsing.
Also I suggest not using any banking apps or going to bank websites on it because god only knows what the software is recording and sending to someone.

Hi!
I did a quick search, didn't see much. I ordered the S5 Sport edition from Sprint and it arrives Monday. However, I've been very interested in the M8 HK edition, mainly for the earbuds. I'm actually thinking about keeping the S5 Sport but because it's so new I can't really find much on it on the scene!
After reading a lot of reviews, both phones appear equal - I'm leaning towards the S5 Sport for the physical buttons but I just want to see if I can install custom ROMs on it (maybe regular S5 ones?) .. either now or in the near future. The other stuff is there just in case someone wants to comment on their personal experience with it. Also, below you can ignore, but I'm listing out the comparisons I made briefly while typing this out in case anyone wants to comment on something with their personal experience.
Is there anything in development for the Sport? Is it even that popular of a phone yet? I love to customize and I'm interested in actually using the bloatware it comes with, but if it turns out it's a battery drain and/or I don't use it, I'd want to put on a clean slate ROM.
I love the water resistant certification. I can use it with wet hands and not feel like I'm potentially murdering it.
I love the physical buttons (which is why I ordered the Sport) because I hate the S3's (phone I currently have) capacitative buttons. The M8 has buttons on screen which I hate even more but I would be able to deal with it.
I do take a lot of random pictures and I'm loving the 16 megapixel camera. I've read that the M8 camera is not awful though and the ability to refocus is great.
I heard the S5 can be laggy. The M8 seems to have a better optimization.
The sport is the same as the s5 active ...its just sprint naming of the phone ...

Does this mean I can use the the same custom ROMs? I figured it'd be different because it's a different carrier (Sprint)
U wouldn't b able to use the roms from att or t-mobile active but the root method would be the same I believe since it's same hardware just different radio bands enabled and disabled

Man, all I want to do is root it.. =\
UPDATE:
I don't regret my purchase. The S5 Sport is EXTREMELY BLOATED! I wanted it for the physical buttons .. it was very painful to sure until the root came out. I downloaded an app to remove the majority of the bloat and now my phone is excellent. Slightly quicker and less annoying popups (and my apps are less crowded). Threw on Nova Launcher Prime and it is good to go.

Hi Mudasir, Thanks for the information. Are there other ways to check the genuineness of Samsung Note 3. Actually, I have a lot of important data on my phone which I don't want to wipe up by doing factory reset.
However, a long time ago, I reset my Samsung Galaxy S3 and in the beginning, the phone asked me to select the language and there were several languages in the drop down list which include Arabic, Chinese and several other languages. Do you think whatever mobile phone has Chinese language as an option, is a fake phone?
Ya but if default language appear chines then its is fake...nd try phone info apps from play store nd post screen shots let me c
