Pretty sure that most of Note II usesrs were waiting for the screen recording option that Samsung already announced ...
we were thinking that future software updates will add that option....
but that will not happen as Samsung already declared it on their official website in FAQ section that they will not add that option due to potential copyright concerns in some regions.
here is the article :
[FAQs] Smart Phone : My Galaxy Note II , GT-N7100 does not support the Screen Recording function?
Although Galaxy Note II,GT-N7100 was introduced at IFA event in 2012 with a Screen Recording function.
Samsung have decided not to include this feature in the final product due to potential copyright concerns in some regions.
As a result, Samsung does not, at this time, have a Software upgrade plan for the Screen Recording function.

Ye i figured they had killed this idea, in my view it has more to do with current versions of Android than anything else. Consider how many screen recording tools are on the play store and how many of them work properly with JB... err none!
If you want to record your screen get an MHL cable and a HDMI capture card only full proof way right now to do screen capture.
Anyone else want to way in with screen recorder conspiracy theories or am I on my own on this one
I don't think people are waiting for Samsung to do it. They're waiting for someone to jack the apk somehow and leak it in the Internet so they can flash it into their phones.

Some people have got the APK and have been looking for how to implement it, but there appears to be a host of libs and framework files required that we simply do not have.
Without those additional files we cannot use it.
The best alternative is to use Screencast, but root is required.

Soooo..... Are they going to remove the screenshot feature as well? Maybe disable the microphone? Axe the camera too... prevent any files from being download to the device?
I think Sammy just fed us a steaming spoonful of BS.

Torrents can still be downloaded to a device, much easier and better quality. You can also use the video camera feature if you're separate, but really, who uses recoding for pirating video? They can disable audio and problem solved. Our reduce it to 15fps... or a dozen other things, but they should remove or completely.
I need screen casting to help debug apps, not to pirate videos. Lots of people have legitimate uses.

So did any one get the VR? Just want to see if it works with the edge. I know there had been some back and forth as to whether or not it would work. I ordered one and should be here today. Wasn't sure if I should expect it tow work or not.

Someone mentioned at the Gear VR forum that the Edge does not fit well inside the VR... If it is ever supported it might need some sort of adapter.
Please let us know how it goes...I also want to buy the vr.

Get a Google Cardboard, you will see more support for it than samsung VR initially. If you think you really like VR just invest that 200 towards a real headset like the oculus for the full effect.

You can probably sell it for more than what you paid for right now. Also Gear VR even with the phone is 10000x better than google glasses ridiculous price.
not sure if this helps but this article says the note edge 'fits"
http://gizmodo.com/samsung-gear-vr-review-hell-yes-i-will-strap-this-phon-1670312012
It's worth noting here that while Samsung has pointedly said that you're not supposed to try and fit the Galaxy Note Edge in here, you totally can. I mean, it doesn't "fit" in the conventional sense, but I've crammed it in a few times without breaking anything (yet). The problem is that the Note Edge doesn't launch the Oculus app when you plug it in. I'm sure there's probably some workaround but it probably involves black magic. Or at least root access.

it "fits" but there is also a software "app" that connects the Note4 to the VR whereas the edge does not
I ordered the VR... ETA: 1 week - Germany
When it comes I will either buy the damn Note4 or the Edge
Hope the app can be ported

Unfortunately Samsung and/or AT&T either did not enable or outright removed the Camera 2 api
which is supposed to allow for RAW capture. That was the one thing I truly looked forward to. Imagine my
disappointment when I later found out that the camera 2 api was not available. If it is simply disabled it
may be possible to fix it. Perhaps one of the more knowledgeable members could answer that question.

Camera would need new drivers. But they are not open sourced...only Samsung has access to it. Unfortunately, I dont see them releasing them because it might hurt S6 sales.

I just exchanged my incendiary AT&T Note 7 for an S7 Edge, which is also a decent phone. I'm wondering if there's a way (without rooting) to reproduce any of the following software features that I got used to on the Note 7:
Secure Folder (instead of Private Mode)
New organization/presentation of the phone's Settings
Optimization page in Settings
Custom image for always-on display
Any advice appreciated.
As of right now none of those options are available. From what I've read all those options will be available on the Nougat update. Welcome to the edge bud.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk
you can change the aod pic but root and xposed is required. the other options no unless there is an xposed module for them and i can not say if there is or not as im no longer rooted. welcome to the edge family btw and hope the phone treats you well, battery is awesome for me stock and all. (custom roms one day)
please when they will have the new software s7 galaxy sm-g935A
From what I have noticed they typically are releases between the 23rd and 28th of the month.

I also came from Note 7.
There is a new AOD version released today for S7 Edge and one of the changes includes the ability to set custom image.
Wish there was a way to do the sPen gif creation on the S7 Edge. Its one of the main feature I miss from the Note 7. Anyone know if there is a way to do this on the S7 Edge.

I've only had the S7 Edge for 2 days (although owned one when they first came out - it was the S7 Edge that pulled me away from the iPhone) and I am SO MISSING my Note 7. That was the best phone ever. That S-Pen GIF feature was great. I want so many of those S-Pen features which is why I went for another Note. Now we probably have to wait another year for a Note 8. I think Samsung might lose a lot of money by not getting new customers but I think the old Samsung customers (like us) will continue to purchase their products.

I am missing this feature a lot so today I ordered a Samsung Galaxy Tab A with S Pen. Has the same S Pen software on it as the N7. On sale right now too. $100.00 off so it's $249.99 US. + free shipping.

Hope this holds me over until the Note 8 comes out. Missing the N7 so much. Nothing compares for me.

ZenFone AR is an Asus flagship.
It has higher quality and specifications vs Note 4.
So i recommend UPGRADING from note 4 to ZF AR.

Look, Vonarian, i'm ready to pull the trigger on this phone, but i have some questions about the UI / software.
Do i have the option to get some theme with squared buttons ? I saw some Youtube vidoes, all of them have rounded icons
Another question : i do use Next Launcher 3D, i love this launcher. Is that compatible with the ASUS UI ?
Or there is just a question about Android 7.0 and the launcher ( compatibility ) ??

I am happy to assist you today.
ZenFone AR is using Vapor cooling system.
So don't worry for hotting
in normal usage(game and etc.)your phone will not get hot.
Asus devices are very good and compatible to others.
Asus supports you at least 3 years and more.
Don't worry for compatibility.
You can install lots of themes and you can manage it in settings.Asus home,Go launcher and etc.
Good luck.

I've been watching this phone since it was first announced at CEI, drooling over it and finally, it's coming to the USA, Verizon only and I probably won't be able to get it because it won't be rootable >:
Although, it's such a monster, I might HAVE to give up rooting. There's never been a device like this one. Anyway, for you guys that have it, how is the pricing? Is it comparable to other high end devices?

ZenFone AR is best phone at CES 2017.
Comparable to Iphone 7 plus.
If you want a lower price(with lower specs)you can but ZF 3 deluxe special edition.
It's not available in all countries.
Taiwan,china,USA and ... has ZenFone AR on store.

You can root.but with a very VERY high RISK.
Asus devices have a very high Security.
So it's very hard and risky to root.

You have a disadvantage if you want to backup/restore your apps WITH data from one device to the next or after a factory reset. You're at a disadvantage if you do mind the bloatware that comes with a phone, you want to use V4A to enhance audio output, you want to theme, you want to have custom roms, or you want a better kernel and an over all better Android experience. If you want those things, you know the things most of us come here for, then not being able to root puts you at a huge disadvantage
Hmm, i see
I don't know what to do, i owned several phones over the years and i rooted all of them
Why is so difficult to root the ASUS phones, actually?

I'm not sure about ASUS phones, I've never had one, but in the case of the Verizon AR and other new phones on VZW, it's the locked bootloaders that VZW has that blocks rooting

Bloat is not heavy on this phone. You can uninstall most of the preinstalled apps. I do feel the kernel could be better. I'm hoping some updates from Asus improves it.

No phone has everything,but,the Note4 has a lot of features,some of which are seldom found on any new phone.
If you're a heavy S-Pen user,it'd be a hard sell to ditch the Note 4 for any other phone.
However,there's nothing preventing you from having both phones:
The Note 4 is going on 3 years since release,surely yours is already paid for.
Unless you are getting a very sizable trade-in credit,I'd keep it & get the ZenFone AR as well.
As for the Note series,any of the later models interest you?
I briefly owned the Note FE,I'd recommend it to anyone.
I sold mine to free up $$$ for the ZenFone AR (mine just shipped from Taiwan to the US via DHL moments ago).
Whether or not I keep the ZenFone AR for the long-term,I'll be getting another Note FE by years end.
It'd be nice if one phone had all the best features of both of these beasts.
