[Q] TMOUS HD2 Users Who Have Moved to TMOUS Samsung Galaxy Note 2..???

Hello all. After three years on my trusty HD2 (stock ROM, using Cookie's Home Tab), I am considering taking the Android plunge and purchasing a new Samsung Galaxy Note 2. Don't know anything about Android, so I have a few basic questions before making this move:
1. How did you move your telephone contacts and text messages from the HD2 to the Note 2?
2. How do you like the screen size of the Note 2 compared to the HD2?
3. Any issues with Wi-Fi calling on the Note 2? Didn't have this capability on my HD2.
4. How durable has your Note 2 been so far? Easier/harder to scratch its screen, capable of surviving a minor mishap, etc.?
5. Any other particular pluses or minuses involved with going to the Note 2 (easier/harder to navigate TouchWiz versus Sense, better/worse keyboard(s), etc.) that you'd like to share?
Not planning to sell my beloved HD2, but will likely keep it as a backup device. Thanks in advance for your replies!
Interesting. I just got the note 2 TMOUS. I love it. You can send me a message to my inbox. I'll be happy to respond to your questions.

Just post your comparison thoughts. I would also be interested in hearing from someone who migrated directly from a HD2 to a Note 2.

HD2 was an awesome phone with a veryyyyy bad OS. Since you been using it with Stock ROM, Android will be a delight.
I would suggest you to install Android on your HD2 even if you using it as Backup Device. Forums will Help you With That
1. Android auto-syncs its contacts from Google Contacts. So try uploading/syncing your contacts with google. Do you have your contacts saved locally on HD2? If Yes, extract them as vcf and upload.
2. Cant answer this (I don't own Note 2)
3. Cant answer this either
4. Note 2 has Gorilla Glass 2, so i would be really surprised if its scratched easily.
5. Sense is Definitely charming. But with the Improvement in Touchwiz for S3 and Note2. it would surely be an eyecandy. (Cant help you here also)
But seriously.. Running HD2 on Stock Rom is like Running i3 machine on windows95.. Android on HD2 is highly developed and daily usable.

[Q] Possible to get nexus 5 People (Contacts.apk) on Note 3?

Hi, hoping I'm posting in the right place. I can't seem to find anyway to get the people app from nexus 5 to my note 3 SM-N900W8. The other contacts app that came with the note is awful.
I'm also wondering if I can replace the phone and diaper with the nexus 5 dialer as well...

Group messaging?

Hi all
I've been using the LG G2 for more than 2 years w/o dealing with group messaging until lately.
A friend of mine who just recently switched from iPhone to Android, has asked me about it and why she can't use it (well, message was sent to all recipients but as individual, not as a group).
I'd been telling her that Android has so much features that it has everything iPhone has and more.
Now, my turn to try and indeed, I CANNOT use it. I've tried with my parents phone, Motorola G, same thing, can't do it.
I've searched around and there was a lot of reports, complaining about this issue but it was 2013. Now about 2016, it is still a problem.
Does anyone know how to fix this? TIA
I'm using CloudyG2 3.3 ROM, my parent's MotoG untouch, my friend's Alcatel Idol 3, all using stock Message app.
By the way, we're all on AT&T
Some other info,
At first, I thought it is the limitation of Android OS but many other friends, especially a cousin who using the Sammy Galaxy Edge+ have no problem with group message at all.
I'm wondering whether it is device-dependent or something.

Low MMS quality!

Hy,
its been long time since I have android device. My last android was samsung S3 mini.
Now I have nokia 6 for about two week and having issues with very low mms quality. I am using stock Messages app from google and pictures I send to someone are unusable. I know there is compression while sending pictures, but.. not like this.
Using 3rd party app is the common solution I found on other forums. Really?!
Any idea what is going on here? New rules, regulations?
Phone and apps are updated to latest versions.
