Not to be offencive dude i'm just tired with my z1 suddenly rebooting and dropping battery level to 0%...and it's freaking dead now!!!!
And u know what i ditched my note 3 for z1...i used to love this phone more than anything....but now i just hate it.....

I know, it happened to me as well. I was using my Z1, bought a 6 Plus and left my Z1 in the cupboard. Weeks later it was completely dead. Nothing could be done, but that doesn't mean the the entire lineup is bad. We're some of the unfortunate ones, that's it. No need to rant about it. Sorry if I was rude, I've seen countless threads like this and I'm pretty fed up.

i'm really sorry if i upset you man...but i spent 400$ on this phone and it's a pretty big deal to me(yep i'm not super rich)...that's why i posted it..i'm really upset about it..

I totally understand. Just post the entire issue from start to end and let people know exactly what happened and they'll be gald to help you out, including me. But that should go to the Q and A section. We'll try something to sort this out. Nothing is impossible

Thanks man...i really appreciate it...i already posted it on q & a section many times...but nothing solved the problem...now i'm looking forward to a new battery...hope it'd fix my phone...just love it for it's camera...

1 defective phone doesn't mean that all the Z1's are crap/s**t, I'm very happy with my Z1, I'm having 6+ hours of screen time on one complete day of use, Sony personalisation is very clean (not to much bloat like other brands), very good camera, in my case is water resistant for real, definitely my next phone will be a Z series (Z3/Z3+ because I can't pay for the Z5 at this moment).
I think you just have bad luck with your phone, sorry for that.

More BS from BGR

http://www.bgr.com/2012/02/13/samsungs-galaxy-note-is-the-most-useless-phone-ive-seen/
In case you don't want to reward BGR with page views, here's the summation:
The phone is too big. You will look stupid talking on it, people will laugh at you, and you’ll be unhappy if you buy it. I really can’t get around this, unfortunately, because Samsung pushed things way too far this time.

Wow, he has a serious stick up his bum regarding the Note. I wonder if one of the smaller phones in orbit around it fell out of orbit and hit him in the head.
Everybody's entitled to their own opinion, but that was ridiculous.

Well.. Its allways a matter of taste and nothing to care about if you dont like it...
I know alot people wanting to get the note, so there is a market and a big demand for beasty phones like the note.

That site sucks so bad!! I can't believe anyone even goes there anymore..
Who could even care about such an opinion, being the fact that so many people wants that Note, including me, but off course I'm holding back because of the price that here in country rounds US$900.oo so is a little off my league right now! lol

As above, everyone is entitled to an opinion. All i can say is that the two people in my office that made fun of the note before i got it now want one, and my wife is asking for one instead of iphone 4S (she has iphone, ipad, and macbook air). Maybe BGR has small apendages...

hahahaha, he's just afraid his GF will prefer holding the 'big' Note instead of his 'tiny' manhood
Sorry mate but you are a real no-go compared to OUR stylus
An article about the Note that affirms that you'll look stupid and people will laugh at you when you hold it is just stupid. The writer's lack of arguments led him to write such a nonsense in a news site. Come on.

This is a review, and as such belongs in the review sticky. I have copied the first post to that thread.​

Bricking the X10.. funny but oddly funny..

When i first joined XDA i had this fight with Fisidox and SVTmook " think it was svtmook"
We had a fight about bricking and semi bricking ect...
After owning both the x10, x10 mini pro, SGS2 and now i have gotten ASUS Transformer Prime just today... i have learned so much.
One thing i remember is SVTmook saying dude you can't brick a x10.. he was right... it's damn hard to brick a x10. hardly had my transformer for a day and i had to re-flash to stock.
I can say today that i learned allot from you guys.. i'm in a way thankful that i owned a x10... because it has shown me everything android is not supposed to be.
But has shown me a true XDA family, True great minds working together.
The x10 has been one hell of a ride.. i have been along side users here for quite a while. i'm happy i have been apart of the journey of the x10.
P1LoT, MrClown and Colosus.. you guys were great mods.. that took a hammering and i thank you for everything you have done for the x10 community.
Go well and may blessings follow.
To the rest of you i say thank you.. thank you for making my day interesting... every second well spent. i don't care if you trolled me.. i don't care if i was the troll.. thank you and sorry for being brutally honest.
If there is anything else i can say enjoy your device.. enjoy it.. not many people have the blessing of doing what we do and how we do it.. a modded device is a godlike weapon from which no witch can recover.. it's a tool.
And tools must work for you.
Blessings to you all everywhere.
enjoy your new device
Nice post mate.
It is not a goodbye is it?
It's been an honor trolling with you.

Couldn't have said it better myself.
That's the best post I have ever read.
Everything I have been through with this device starting from early mornings checking for updates on XDA to an "ungodly" hours at night.
Great journey, loved to be part from it.
Have fun with your new device as I am having with my one.
Do you remember that enormous thread when 2.1 was due out. I must have spent hours on there alone. Good times
Sent from my SO-01C using XDA App
Remember back in the day when the x10 only had double tap, and no pinch to zoom..
hahaha it really was a failure on 1.6. Without the pressure that was put on SE to update the x10, and the brilliant work these devs on XDA have done, the x10 would of been a MASSIVE disaster...
Anyway good luck with your future devices Omega. All the best.
I always think what would of happened if I bought the SGS instead of the x10.
Better phone no doubt, but nowhere near as much fun. If I had the choice to go back and remake that choice, i'd go the x10 again

Yeh I feel the same way. The Droid RAZR forums are much more boring than the x10's. Even though the RAZR is a more superior device the x10 has made me an addict,
Xperia x10(Feralabs Rom) After trying all roms it was my Fav.
Now on the RAZR.
I see you Drinking that ¥Hateraid¥
I got a TF101 in December. ICS was supposed to have been released for it already and now Asus keeps giving different answers. Now the TF forum is blowing up with the "OMG where the F is ICS?!!" threads. It reminds me of the "good old days" of everyone *****ing and moaning about x10 fw updates... It definitely builds character and brings the interesting forumers out of the woodwork! And I am a lot less worried about it this go-round!

Not trolling, but if you can reflash stock it wasn't bricked either. I think people don't understand bricked.

what i was pointing out was even after adopting several devices.. different hardware ECT... still i have not yet bricked any of my other devices.
X10 died because i pushed her way too hard. "so not actually a brick due to flashing"
This is also due to a effort by developers to keep it as sane as possible when it comes to flashing.

Goodbye to an amazing phone

I am giving up my Note.
I pay for my father's phone and his current one has died on him. Because his sight is getting bad he wanted a 'phone like mine' with a massive screen.
I have considered the Note 2 as a replacement or the S3 but am being swayed by the Sony Xperia T as I take a lot of photos on my phone and the camera was my only point of contention with the Note - the camera hardware/optics aren't that great.
Regardless, I'll be visiting another forum soon so I just wanted to say thanks to Chainfire, Dr Ketan and everyone else who has made owning a rooted Note such an amazing experience!

Basically we are so much emotionally attached with community so can't leave without saying see off. Just take it easy, I know other point of view too. But emotion is always beyond the control of we human beings.
So it's ok, may one common thread can be started to say goodbye to all or such kind of thread should be reported by op himself after some period to keep forum clean.

Wish you happy journey with your new baby.

A common thread for goodbyes would be useful. Generally I consider saying goodbye a nice gesture by the people leaving the Note forum.

Don't want to start any flaming but my main reason for saying goodbye was to thank those who give their time, free of charge or depending only on donations, to make our phone experience better.
Most people understand the sentiment of thanking someone for having a positive impact on their lives and experiences, but if you don't subscribe to that then just don't contribute!
My next phone will probably be the Xperia T, if I can handle the reduction in screen size that is. My Mrs has just got an Xperia S and its a great phone, the stock software is the best I've ever seen on a phone, build quality is excellent. Thing is things are just getting great with the Note development wise, so will be sticking here at least until the price comes down a little on the T.
Oh and another reason to get a Xperia T - Codeworkx has got one.
Enjoy your new phone, nothing like being new phone happy.:highfive:

I got the Xperia T in the end. So far so good - the half an inch less screen makes a BIG difference but the T is great and once I'd stopped using the Note for a few hours I didn't miss it so much. The camera is just amazing. I RDP to my PC quite a lot and was worried the smaller screen would be an issue but nope, it's fine, so I know it will be fine for everything else too.
This will be my last post in this forum because I can't be bothered with the likes of abhinav and because I'm moving on to pastures new.
Make sure you use the NEW off-topic thread in future guys

I'm sorry this post devolved into forum philosophy but hey, enjoy the new phone! For me, its Note or Note 2 for the time being... screen size being all to me!

Not to be Debbie downer.... But the days of Samsung products being easy to develope on... Are over... Look at the S4 and Note 3 threads... D.E.A.D. I personally love Sammy products.. owned a S3 and a note 3... Bought both cash.. spoiled with a S3 unlocked boot loader.. which chances are Will NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN ? then my locked down tighter than a rat's a$$ note 3! loved the phone.. but the lack of development made me so bored with it.. HTC m8 has all the goodies.. could not be any happier.. COMPLETELY UNLOCKED all the way... If you guys are hoping to have a great phone.. with lots of development.. and are still under your 14 days.. I HIGHLY suggest taking that s5 back and getting the M8. You went regret it... If you don't care about development... ( lol then you probably would not even be reading this ) lol.. then I'm sure the S5 is the perfect phone for you... All I know is I paid top dollar cash for a brand new note 3.. and was completely bored after 2 months... That thing is so locked down and always will be.. ( along with all Sammy products) I took a huge loss and sold it..and now totally happy with the M8... Lots of developers are giving up cause of Verizon and Samsung are just making it so hard to work on.. it sucks... But the truth.. I'm a m8 owner but love Sammy products.. why I'm here was just hoping for some miracle that may have happened with this phone.. but it's a needle in a hay stack... But love this M8.. can't be any happier with this phone.. just sharing the love.. hope people don't lose money on a phone that will bum then out on a phone that won't get much development.. Root alone is going to be a task.. specially with Knox involved now.... Good luck guys!

Yeah.. I think I would of liked the buttons to be like S3 s4 and S5... I hate losing screen real estate cause of the buttons but the stereo speakers do sound great though... I dint see much difference If any in screens.. and as far as the camera goes... Seems to shoot sold pictures for my needs... I Am a little bummed about the No 4k video recording for sure though...

I hear the camera is garbage I was going to get it over the s5 but I think I'll hold out for about 3months and see how the s5 has developed or by than hopefully we get something going for the note3 bootloader but that's me taking it with a grain of salt :/

Cracking camera glass???

Yeah that definitely sucks.
Is this the "production issue" that Google CSR's were talking about? If so I am glad my phone is still pending. I hope this is not a wide spread occurrence.
In the Reddit thread I read about this someone asked if they could (the 2 or 3 people this happened to) post the build date of the devices but I don't think it has been provided yet.

Got to be honest...should be receiving mine at the end of the month and this plus the bending, paint chipping and the warped aluminium from the official cases. It's a hell of a lot of money, $700+ in the UK, to throw at a phone that seems to having its fair share of problems. I'm coming from an HTC M8 which has been superb! Also a bit nervous about it.
I find it hard to believe that Google would let hardware this inferior carry the Nexus name. I am not sure what to do with my phone at this point. I guess I can say it on a pillow and never takes it out in the real world.
