Mine is leggy compared to my n3, but not sure I want to factory reset and reinstall all my stuff.
I did that initially when I got this tablet but I didn't get the result that you're getting

How long have you been working in ezPDF since you reset it? I'm tempted to do this as well, but backing up, reinstalling and reorganizing all my stuff would be time consuming. I'd hate to go through this only to find that EZPDF is still crashing and slow.

Is your Note rooted? You can use Titanium and do a full backup, and do a batch restore when you're back up.

No, I'm ascared to root my Note. I depend on it too much to take any risks and I don't really have the time to look into rooting right now. It is something I'm curious about though.
Rooting isn't a major thing. Changing the ROM is a different story. Nothing to be scared of when it comes to rooting.

I use Dropbox to organize my files, then I favorite the files I want to download them, then use ezpdf to open and annotate the files. What is your work flow like?

The apparent key is to factory reset after the updates. Not had this issue with any previous Android device, so could be a poor firmware design issue by the 2014 Samsung dev team.
If I buy one in the next few weeks, I will update to the current firmware, FR and THEN put my apps on. I will probably avoid updates after that.... :silly:

Exactly correct. First do the ota update, then reset. Then disable all that Samsung nonsense.

See though, that's one of the reasons many of us bought this tablet, we want those features and S Pen integration. What we need is way to make those work better, not eliminate them.

I haven't heard of anyone having any issues with root on this tablet, the only way I could see issues cropping up is by flashing a custom ROM.

Did they take out game gripper?
I just got the new psx4droid and was gnnause gamegripper which I thought I had but its not there so I guess I neverdownloaded it, but when I go to the market its not there either
Could it be cuz of the xperia play? I thought it was gonna usher in a nw age of gaming for android but its starting to look like its doing the opposite..
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Gamegripper as in the ROM finder app? I have it installed on my phone but you're right, it's no longer on the market. As for the n64 emulator, it was removed due to the dev taking it down to re-release it at a later time (after most bug fixes) due to negative feedback.
It does appear that Google is removing these apps due to piracy of ROMs, though.
EDIT: Spelt 'but" wrong. haha

Kind of hints that Play Station Suite is on the horizon.
According to this thread - http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/com..._to_rom_gripper_has_google_remotely/?sort=hot
The gripper was removed due to the ROM database being offline.
I actually know how to get some of those pulled apps...I can't say the site though because of the apps are warez.
you dont need an app to get roms..
The guy pulled the n64 app to give it an overhaul. Something lik 2 months b4 a release.
As far as Psx4droid goes.. I bought v2 a few days b4 it was pulled. I pulled my apk file b4 flashing a new rom B)

Good idea. My opinion is definitely invest in root explorer. It lets you navigate directly to the data/app folder and you can copy+paste the apk to your SD. Plus it has a remount rw/ro button that beats the hell out of using terminal emulator to do it.

Hi all, encouraged by all the positive comments about JPK I decided to go on and install it.
All went well, rooted without trouble then went back to the stock kernel. I restored all the apps and system data with Titanium Backup and suddenly the process com.android.systemui (the top taskbar) crashed. I rebooted the phone but the error stayed.
I tried reflashing but this time I installed the apps from scratch and used Titanium to restore the apps data, after that the system responded very stable until an hour ago when the com.android.systemui error and crash appeared again.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any fixes?
I was on JPY before, I guess I'll try JS8 or go back to JPY
Thanks

never restore system data unless whatever ur running is the same thing you were running when you did the backup.
I absolutely agree with you. That's why I flashed again with no system data restore. But the process crashed once more.
Thanks for your input Runedrune

Best thing for contacts is to sync with Google. As soon as you sign in to market after wiping and flashing things all contacts are restored. Clean and simple and always on hand if you lose your phone.

As far as i know, but i could be wrong, you can only sync calendar & contacts via Google. So settings of your phone won't be backed up.
Success!! Thank you all for your suggestions. Gingerbread works smoothly now. Working through the first battery depleting cycles now, time will tell.
Sadly my car home app from samsung for the vibrant car dock doesn't work anymore. It does trigger car mode but it won't play the music through the dock's line out nor keep the screen on. Anyone else experienced this?
Maybe wait for a Gingerbread supported version of the app?

Hi all, must have been asked but not sure what to search for so can't find it.
I've been using completely stock up until now and will be rooting once I get my new PC through. So I have all the apps, accounts, settings, layouts etc as I want. Can I backup any of this and restore it properly onto a custom rom?. Most likely will be Paranoid.
Thanks.
You can try to use my backup pro since you're not yet rooted. As far as I know, you can use it without rooting. Probably wit limited functionality. But definitely you cannot get away from restoring some of your settings manually. There's simply no seamless way right now.

I just wish there was a reliable CWM recovery touch for this variant.
Also, maybe it's just me, but I have to say that, for all of the cries from people for JB, I've really not noticed much of a difference since the update.
Yeah, it has to be the smallest changelog I have ever seen.

It isn't as though I had any problems with the tablet before, except for some occasional lag, but, except for the icons and some minor cosmetic changes, I haven't noticed anything to distinguish it from ICS.
Of course, I'm grateful that they're at least updating it. Especially since there would be so many people crying if they didn't.
Maybe I'm too oblivious to notice the changes.

The way I see it, the mobile data radio button was most handy so that I could make sure I was not using my data plan when WiFi was on. I preferred having this feature, and I have noticed a difference in the past when I thought I was using WiFi only to learn I wasn't. Maybe you don't think it was useful, but I certainly found it to be very much so. Now I have to drill down into the settings to manually turn off mobile data instead, which is a pain.
Besides, airplane mode usually shuts off Bluetooth, GPS, mobile data, and WiFi, or at least it has on nearly every device I've ever owned. In other words, from a practical standpoint: baby with the bathwater.

I guess you are right. Airplane mode does shut off way too much. How about adding a data toggle from the Play Store?
