That article seems to have been written by a kid. To me it seems he made all of that up, there's no source for that info. I don't trust it.

Would be nice, but I am pessimistic about it. Not playing many games on my S4, so overheating not an issue so far.

As with all 2.1 threads, take it for what it is worth, he thought he had valid information, turned out not to be true and owned up to it. Don't like it, don't read it. Don't believe it, do the reseearch to find out.

Doubt it is anything... probably samfirmwares trying to get some traffic.
Downloading now...I don't expect anything special but we will see.
is this not the rumored model number of the nexus S?
disappointed to hear its still using RFS... so here's hoping that's either untrue or it /isn't/ the nexus S firmware.

Also, you need to make sure your distro supports UBIFS. It's a rather *new* file system format but from what I have heard Fedora 11 does.. have to redownload my copy though ;/

you also need mtd utils, most distros support this as well, but here is the git if your distro doesn't support it out of the box: git://git.infradead.org/mtd-utils.git
UBIFS git here: git://git.infradead.org/ubifs-2.6.git
I got past all the errors and the on the last step couldn't mount the ubifs.

my x10 after repair

hey,
my phone was bricked (hardware // USB) so i gave it to 3 and got it back after 1 1/2 week.(yesterday)
First i noticed that i've got a new IMEI (0123....) instead of (0359.... or something similar) that means i got a new motherboard/mainboard.
then i noticed that it run smoother then before and there are less laggs/bugs (SAME FW)
today i noticed that the speaker is VERY loud instead of the low volume before.
is that possible that those things got changed through the new mainboard/motherboard?
thx 4 answers
I smell a troll..
0123 is a dev phone as far as i know and you wont have been given one by three

Ahh now my IMEI is
012379
I don't want to butt in, and I'm a newbie here, but I do want to mention that I also sent in an X10i for service and it was replaced with a new one whose IMEI starts with 01237900.
I'm in the US, my X10i was bought from expansys, and its original IMEI started with 35941903. I sent it to SE service in the US in September because it kept rebooting, and after a long wait in late October I got back a replacement with a different IMEI that, as I mentioned, starts with 01237900.
Maybe they give those phones as replacements then.

no, i can give you some pics and the full IMEI
Is it really faster and louder?
so if this is true, maybe the incall volume really is a hardware issue and not software.
I did notice a small difference in volume after the 2.1 update though, very strange.

Doesnt seem to be a hardware issue, as if you do a skype test call it's very loud (allbeit a tad crackly).
Hmmm...I wondered why my IMEI looked weird when I got my replacement. Looks like I have a dev phone too. COOL!
I got my x10 yesterday after 21 days and the PCB has been changed.. IMEI starts with 01237 also the PCB looks different than the old one

Ok, so if we do have dev phones, whats the diff between retail and dev phones?
Proto types or as some of you are calling them "dev" actually begin with 00. Commercial products begin with 35 and now 01 is the new naming of all new SE's tranceivers rolling out.
No hardware changes on new imei, although you might have received a sw update

I'm guessing we'd have more control over system files and doing dev work on it, but that doesn't mean squat if you don't have the official hardware to connect to the phone and dev software on the phone.
edit: Or maybe not^^ lolz.
So it is worth for me to purposely brick my device to get a better board =D ?
PS: Still on Warranty.

Amazon review says US unlocked phones won't be getting ICS.

I have no idea about the validity of this. I ordered the very phone that this review is for. Any thoughts?
http://www.amazon.com/review/R2TREU...eless&cdThread=Tx1ZKNEJXC5OB01#wasThisHelpful
As long as it is indeed a n7000 u can get the official rom updates here and the awsome roms from the devs. I am using a german note with hk rom and getting hk rom updates via kies . No problem at all.

That review is not correct.
I just received that exact phone last week, from Amazon. Each Galaxy Note has a region code to indicate where it came from (Mine was from the UAE). This code can be changed to any region you want. This will allow for a stock upgrade to ICS, when it comes out.
Also, just like the previous poster said, you can root and put any rom you want on your Note.
I am running the stock ICS beta, from January. For me, it is awesome. I am running at 213 DPI which gives me the tablet mode look.

So you believe misinformation from an Amazon review, but don't believe the people in the forum where you posted asking if it were true? Makes sense.
Most devs go to the Amazon review page so everyone knows the truth about phone updates

I never believed the Amazon review, but I never discredited it either. I asked you smart people here at xda what you thought so I could make an educated decision of my own. I trust you guys more than an Amazon review, but trust my final conclusion more than either.

So you neither discredit nor credit what is posted on xda and Amazon reviews nor do you place credibility on the opinions or facts of those places above what you personally believe which is based off the things you read which may or may not have any significant validity as to its claims, which is still eclipsed by the fact that you take everything with "a grain of salt" that is on the internet, which is the place you have come to with a question seeking an answer.
I think you should meet with an authority figure who you can't discredit, in person (to eliminate the internet factor), so you can get the facts.
I know the perfect person, he can be found in a mirror.
P.S. stay free
It'll get updated to ICS. Don't worry. But it will be layered with TouchWiz. In this year, Samsung will not be stupid enough to cut the cord on a 3 month old device. That would be pure suicide. The PR nightmare.
Basically true. My conclusions is derived from all the information I've gathered with consideration of credibility of the various sources.

Based on recent release patterns the next version will be the one that is actually released.

Nah they screwed up the sound completely with 136 so that's been done already. I'm thinking the screen will be unreadable in one way or another, forced low light, no contrast at all, that sort of thing.
Looking forward to it
well uk has not even had 136. hopefully we will get this first.
