Everything seems to run just fine. Had some problem with charging, but i solved it by plugging it into the wall, and not the USB port.

amazing, no fc, no bugs so far, smooth. Now i have charged fully, calibrated and going to check battery life ;D now waiting for criskelo rom with this firmware

Am having problems with the phone signal sometimes it goes off and on and then off again.
EDIT: i did a factory reset and everything is perfect now !

I think you shouldn´t suggest to flash ANY LP1-6 kernel anymore. Today, everybody should know the danger of them...
MY 2 CENTS:
Ultrafine! The only one thing missing is the possibility to change the DPI!!

Works well enough but Samsung seem to have tried to hide the simple elegance of stock ICS in some ways. Thinking of going back to CM9. Not much of a pen user anyway ,

Hi can someone confirm that rSAP is working?
Thanks

Loving the ICS release except for one thing.....
I toggle silent/vibrate on and off quite a lot. When I do this, using the long-press power-button menu, some wonderful person has decided that I am so clueless, I need a confirmation dialogue box.
"Warning! Silent mode will be enabled OK/Cancel"
Gasp! Really!?!?! I had no idea that would happen when I purposely held down the power button and then with delicate intent selected the desired silent-mode function.
Just. Wow. It's supposed to be a shortcut, and Samsung just ruined it. Of course, I flashed completely stock without root, so I'm probably stuck with this until somebody figures out how to root this stock ICS release. (Maybe they have already, I'll do a search).
It's a small complaint to most people, but I toggle silent on and off many times a day. This is a huge annoyance. I'll see if there are any lockscreen toggles I can get - actually, EVERY single android release or skin should have silent/vibrate toggle on the lock screen, as it was in the earlier android releases. Motorola seems to be the only one who realises this. Sheesh....

Generally good, am upset by the lack of 160 dpi/tablet conform, just be aware if you're going for lower dpi's you'll face fc's

Has been improved the connection with kies? It's a pain to try to connect with it.

What phone they demoing it on there ?

thanks for this! i'll test this out and tell how it compares to affinity for me once it finish downloading.

i've been running this for a few hours, and at this point its kinda laggy at 1.5 ghz. rosie redraws a lot. affinity is much faster imo. i'll let it "set in" for a day or two then report again. keep in mind though this is on a brand new G2, i literally unboxed it, rooted it, then flashed this. this rom has a lot of potential though. i haven't called anyone, but i think its suitable as a dd.

Depends on to what extent it isn't working. Unless Inifnity changes things, it hasn't been working for Sense 4.0 (And half-ass working on other ICS roms). But I think the hype of infinity on vision is that you can least take a picture even if the camera may be buggy. i.e.: big + for Sense ICS on Vision/G2/DZ (PS : Vision = DZ/G2 in case you didn't know).

Infinity seems to take photos fine. Even does continuous shots. Haven't tried camcorder.

Gona give it a try soon as the sucker is downloaded
I'm curious to what extent the camera behaves compared to some other roms I've tried (AOKP, Andromadus etc).
---------- Post added at 06:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 AM ----------
hrm, shame this rom doesn't enable adbd from the start, was wondering why I couldn't get a logcat on it's slow boot up. (i.e.: it'd be nice for relaying debugging information).

How can I overclock my device with this rom? It's a little bit laggy, but has lots of potential!! Thanks to the great developers!

The camera actually works better on infinity than it does on any non-Sense ICS rom I've used (for example on EliteMod ICS, if I were to use instagram, you can't even see an image in the camera screen, but it'll still take the picture albeit corrupted).
---------- Post added at 07:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 AM ----------
Yea while the rom itself seems pretty slow, the camera functionality is far better than any of the other ICS roms I've used, no problems with 3rd party camera applications either (instagram, pudding camera, etc).

Can anyone confirm with me is music player,wifi,sms and call working in infinity?

T889 Tips and Tricks

Taking it back to 2011 N1 style. I'd love to learn from others.
This is one I really like... long press Home button brings up a menu with a nice task manager, no widget required.

i like the way we can take screenchot...by swiping the palm over the screen from left to right and right to left....but it needs to be enabled in settings--> motion

Reserved loll I didnt knowbi had to turn on motion for the palm screenshot. I just figured we didnt have it lolll. Thanks

You can quickly check the time msg etc by rolling your palm over the light sensor quickly then back. There will be a slight delay for the display to turn on. Of-course you'd have to switch the option on in motion settings. Don't be scared if you notice a red light peeking at you next to the ffc after that move. It's "quick glance" option at work. Doesn't really seem to drain battery either.
ps - Make sure you turn on smart stay and smart rotate, they are freakin awesome and they really work. - only downside, it makes auto rotation a tad bit slower but not by much. This is due to smart rotate needing a short time to recognize the angles.

I'm a big fan of the magic wave. Likewise with smart stay and rotate. I also set the calibration for auto-rotation at a slight bias towards portrait, so the switch to landscape is only triggered when I'm actually holding it landscape.
Also, I noticed there's a separate forum for the T-Mobile T889 http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1877
In case the moderators want to move this thread.

I actually figured the same thing. I was rather upset and thought to myself "do I really have to take out the spen every time I want to take a screen shot?" thank goodness for that! Actually my friend had go show me that there was another option in the motion menu.

You can now take a "screen shot" with the spen of only parts you want.
Take out your pen and then press the side button and then draw a complete circle, square, or any shape you like around part of the screen and then let go of the button. You need to connect the two ends though. It's very useful if you don't want to have to take a screen shot and then edit it with the crop feature. It's also very useful to just send off as the share button is just right there.

Camera modes

What do you guys think of the camera modes? I think a lot of them seem to be cool but aren't they all independent? I.e., if I'm taking a shot of 3 people in a busy area, it stands to reason that I would want to use best shot for the people's faces but also use the eraser feature in case someone walked by. Is that possible?

I'm also thinking about combining all the features in very few modes...like what the htc one did.. it's actually all based on burst-mode or post-effect.
I'm really confused why they've made it in this way, it can't help a lot in the daily usage and sometimes is annoying.

Is anyone else having the issue of the camera not remembering the mode if you close ot then open it again at a later point

Gs3 gti9300 had this to it is easily fixed by choosing your desired settings, then take a snap of something, then close cam and close in running apps, then when u load fresh it will still have saved settings. This only applies to gps, face detection, ISO, resolution, not the drama shot and shot with sound.
Hope this helps

Yes it is, go to settings when camera is loaded then select face detection on (set to off by default) then go to Eraser shot.should work and give best possible outcome. Let me know if this works for you mate

[Q] Is this just me or is my Note 3 screen defect?

Hi lovely guys of the Note 3 forum!!
I've had my Note 3 for some time now and I was wondering if my screen is defect since it does act a little weird. I hope you can clarify this for me
Whenever I put my screen on low brightness, the screen tend to leave a trail of purple color behind whenever I scroll/move something. It'd be very nice if anyone with a Note 3 could test this for me, if u are having the same problem or if it's just me
A good way to test this, is to set brightness to 0% and then pull the notificationcenter down and try to swipe the notifications away slowly and look closely, if u can find some purple trail leaving behind the swiping object. To see this clearly, you can download the app Lux and set the brightness to sub-zero. Try -50% and it should be very easy to see. Would mean a ton to me if you could report back. I need to return my device asap if it's defect.
Thank you very much!! <3
EDIT: Here is a video of the problem!

Just turn off or switch off "development setting" and try again, if not, return the device.

Don't think you can don't worry about it

Hey guys!
Just to confirm we're talking about the same thing, here is a video I took of the problem
EDIT: Seems like I've discovered a general issue with S4/Note3; Ghosting/smearing. God damnit, this is annoying. The shop will probably not even take it back now. ****..

cannot duplicate
I can't see this at zero brightness. I even installed lux and set it to subzero, and I still can't see it. I'm using an SM-900T.

I think I know what you are talking about. I also believe my smartphone has same problem. As an example if you download BBC News application,then scroll down to end of page and pull further you will see this tail of light appear. It also does this in the settings page when you scrol up or down but you have to get to bottom or top of page and pull further

Not sure if that was sarcasm... BEcause I hope it was.
That's the replacement for the 'bounce at end of page' that Apple successfully sued Samsung over. It now glows.

exactly the same problem with mine. fast moving UI elements leave a purple trail behind them.
could it be that some batches of screen are affected and some are not? it doesn't bother me too much though.
