What does this have to do with development?

wheres your team spirit? instead of being negative why not do something positive to inspire samsung to carry on delivering the best of best in the devices? Im sure Samsung would love yet another Badge to there title for not just the best phone of the year but best gadget of the year is something totally new and pretty big.
and with the GADGET SHOW being watched all over the globe its something to be proud of! you own the best gadget of the year.
so please be positive and lets do this together
To be honest, who gives a damn? I don't care what others think about a device I have, as long as I enjoy using it myself.

I agree with akusokuzan. Even though you're enthusiastic, this has got zero to do with development. You'll get a lot more positive response in the general section!
The people who own the phones know which is best...we dont need a tv show to prove it
(and this should be in general, theres no development in this thread, just a fanboy thread by a user called fanboi...ooo the irony)
Remove this please, nor does it belong in development, nor at xda at all in my opinion. Looks like advertisement for some site of which the op might earn cash for clicks.

The Gadget Show is dire. It is an appalling TV programme. It lasts about 45 minutes (excluding the much better produced adverts) and you would be lucky to find 5 minutes worthy of a tech show.
They do 'challenges' which are purely for entertainment - but fail even to do that.
As said earlier, they are very Apple centric.
The only bit of the show that is any good is the web only reviews, and even then they tend to be very superficial. Then there is the one minute of adverts before the review starts, only to get under 2 minutes of contect.

a bit like top gear but failing miserably lol never really thought about it until you just said
I run into people all the time who see my phone and have no idea what it is or even that it's a phone readily available from ATT here in the US.
They have no idea. Most people actually like it and want one. A handful think its HUGE. I am so used to it don;t find it big. I find the iPhone and my SGS2 extremily small now.
It appears Samsung really doesn't push this phone like they did the S2 and now s3.
I am beginning to wonder whether or not a "Note II" will be released.
Anyone have the same experience when other's see their phone?
Yep here the same, a lot of ppl i met did not know that device here in Germany as well. 10% think its to huge but i tell them in even 3 days after i got my SGN i never touched my other SGS1 and SGS2 incl. the SGT7
Well first of all remember that 80% of the population barely pays any attention to gadgets. So it's not suprising that a relatively new device like the Note is still not well known. I guess it also depends on the level of promotion. Samsung ran the Superbowl ad but I don't know how heavily advertised it's been after that.
In India the Galaxy Note has been massively promoted right from the start, something which surprised me at first. However it's been a big success and even regular people seem to be aware of it. Whenever I show it to people, the reaction is generally very positive.
I don't think there is any question that the Note has been a big global success. I think there will be another massive round of promotion around the Olympics and I will be surprised if sales are less than 10 million at the one year mark.
There will definitely be a Note 2 though possibly it may not come this year. There isn't much serious competition yet in this category and Samsung may decide that the Note will continue to sell well. In that case they may postpone the Note 2 to sometime next year when they could ship with Jelly Bean. My guess though, is that the Note 2 willl be released around November this year.
yeah in India, Samsung has done proper marketing for this phone. It has sold well too. I see a huge number of people using it here..
Most people I meet, just look on and are surprised GNote fits in my standard trouser pockets! Confused with a 7" tab.
Hi all. I really hope that a Note II comes along. I'm absolutely loving my GNote. The size is perfect!! I'm from Trinidad and the reactions that I've had have been split 50-50. For everyone that wants one, someone else thinks it's massive and they wonder....how can that fit in your pocket?!? Silly question really...standard pockets have ample room for the GNote. Unless you're a chick....or a guy who's metro or something....
Here in the Netherlands there is an amazing amount of people who have the Note.
I see them literally everywhere.
Sammy has advertised a lot on T.V. and bus stops.
It's unbelievable, they keep popping up.
Although it is a device not so hard to miss right
In Malaysia, Samsung did a great promotion. My company have around 40 staff, we have 7 staff using galaxy note including myself.

it takes a special sort of person to have a note - it is so large that it is a statement about your confidence and knowledge of technology
i look upon those with smaller devices with pity
and i drop change for people with a windows phone...

I bought one because one of my collegues just bought one, I was damn impressed and the Note is just what I needed.
But they do make fun of it indeed, at bars they ask me why I brought my laptop.

With any luck, there will be a Nexus Note.
Does anyone else here feel like the note was just a temporary stepping stone before the s3? I mean support from Samsung about the notes black crush and emmc issue have been ignored, most of the devs have jumped ship (not that I blame them) but I just feel that in half a year the notes dev community is going to start grinding to a halt :/ its sad because its a wonderful device and I love it but it just seems to have been moved on from so quickly by everyone. I mean look at the amount gb dev for this device! ICS comes along finally and not much has been done to it because people have moved on. Its a real shame :/
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I have yet to own an Android phone that HASN'T happened to (large portion of Dev's/users moving on to the "latest and greatest").
We still have some great dev's though, I dont feel too worried.Along with the fact that many of us do not care for the S3 so I don't see as mass of an exodus as many previous Android phones I have owned.
That and it's not like we have a vast choice of phones to compete with the screen of the Note, which in all fairness, is why a majority of us are here. It would have to be a whole lot more of a phone for me to want to downgrade to a 4.8" screen, and that is NOT the S3.
Note 2 on the other hand... I suspect to see the Note community get much quieter
I was only thinking the other day how quite the note development section is now a days.
Why?
There are only (for me) 4 or 5 custom roms that are of use to me. And only 2 of those see regularly updated. The rest are old and using old Sammy releases or cm9 of which i tried but never been a fan of. As for kennels their is only speedmod for me and hardcore does not seem to update very often and in my opinion is the only stable one but is lacking in development to reach his high standard.
I agree that with this device I would of expected a lot more going on with it.
Its a real Shame coos I too did expect more and its getting rather stale at present.

I love my Note, probably the best device I've ever had... But I wish there were some kernels with bln! It really annoys me...

Personally? I have yet to see a device that scales the massive 5.3" size. Sure there WAS the DELL Streak before? but it's already been antiquated into oblivion (well there are still developers working on that device I believe, and most Streak users would bashed me for saying as an antiquated device ).
Anyway again, It's not much but just a personal choice or preference on why most people have jump ship to ride on the S3 hype.. I truly believe, given the size comparison alone, My Note is still a strong contender in any given smartphone field.
People can be superficial nowadays... all want to catch on what's in and what's the latest... some are in just for the heck of it.. and mostly are for JUST THE HYPE of it.
It's cool to brag along nowadays.. when you got the latest quad-core phone.
Personally I don't give a damn about people going overboard to the S3.. I am fully contented with my Note and what it can bring to my needs.
and you know what?
I gotta tell you, I went to a pub last week, there was this moron who was brandishing and showing off on how cool his S3 was.. He showed to a lot of guys inside, how smart his phone is, he toyed around, savoring the delights of the dudes there, playing games, using his SMART STAY and his POP PLAY... I can clearly see he was getting a lot of Ohhss and ahhs.. from the crowd....
hmm.. so what did I do? hmmm, nothing.. I sat beside him, popup my NOTE and played POP UP video and open up my POP Browser and played youtube video inside it. I then drag the two apps side by side on my phone.
Conclusion? Nothing.. the poor bud (upon seeing my Note playing those videos) literally just walk out of the club!!
So again, there's no shame having this massive phone with massive capabilities and features.
It can par up with dem quad-core joes.. ANY TIME OF DAY.... yeah!!.
Note rocks and Samsung knows it.

-1. sorry to say- S3 can not tale the place of G.Note, may be Note 2 and mostly Note 3 overtake.
is that true there there's less development for the Note now? So you mean I gotta go buy the Note 2 now to keep up? No SGS3 for me, it's WAY too small.

It is called technology. All things in technology are so called as "stepping stone".
If there's no new products, means, technology go stagnant...
Means, developers are dead. No fantasy, no imagination, no development.
I like android, whereby the development is super fast. I thought I was just changing from froyo. Now we are on ICS alrd.
next will be Jellybean ? after that ? Will samsung stop the android, and move to Tizen ?
And it's a good strategy to use opensource like android, whereby, the software development can be just leave it to all developers. And manufacturers like samsung, htc, etc just concentrate on developing new products, and tease the end-users.
But, as a developers (programmers), just be frank... will you stay on old "toys" when the new "toys" are coming out ?
From what I know (since I'm a programmer also), I like to play with new toys. And if the new toys is much better, why not keeping on developing the new one ? As the old one, I will keep on maintain... But only when I can spare my time.
:victory:
:angel:
I don't see it as a stepping stone but more of a test run.
The phablet market was completely open and unknown. So Samsung being the crazy adventurer they are decided to step in and "give it a shot".
If results were good, they would release a bigger and better one and give that one more support.
If it failed then, meh.
Clearly it hasn't failed hence the upcoming release of Note 2.
I agree that we lack a large range of developers, as compared to more popular devices like the S2 or the Nexus, but because this is just like a "trial" I'm sure as the phablet category gets more popular the Note 2 will attract more incredible developers.
I am seriously on the verge of bying an any network S3 here in the UK. Just before I make the jump can I ask if :-
1) Is there an app like lockinfo for JB iphones that acts like a today screen, listing all your upcoming appointments, missed calls, messages etc from the lock screen? I am happy to JB the andriod if I can do this.
2) Is there an app that works, to record telephone calls both ways without the beep.
3) I have already had huge responses over the volume hack, thanks everyone.
If I can the the 3, then I will take the jump.

Honestly you should stick to the iPhone. If it does everything you need and has all the apps that you use why bother switching? If it's for faster performance or bigger screen wait for the iPhone 5.

Yeah I noticed most iPhone users are too dumb to ever learn and love android. iOS is perfect for idiots and grandmas to use. So... I say stick with your icrap last thing we need is to convince another iPhone user to switch.
I tried switching a few iPhone idiots over and I've given up. They always complain how it's so hard to use and blame me for talking them into it, not my fault that using iOS for so long has killed off most of their brain cells.
Thanks everyone
Can I thank everyone for their input, even to those who thought my topic was a dumb. I want a new phone and bored with apple so no dis-respect, I have taken onboard everything said and decided to give the S3 a try. I have the option of returning it so I have nothing to loose and everything to gain.
I thought the JB term was hilarious, of course its jelly bean...

Don't believe the iSheep hype that IOS has more Apps than Android because Android can do anything iPhone can plus anything else you could ever wish, and the only reason IOS has more Apps is all the junk on the App Store that's never even been downloaded once.

I traded iPhone 4s for SGS3 and I like it much more. There arent limits like you cant set mp3 for a ring tone or alarm tone etc. Stock SGS3 is more open and adjustable than jailbroken iOS.

Everyone wants to try something different just try your best to help. And if you do not have anything good to say just ignore it. Your all making the Android community look like it's full of douche bags seriously help or ignore them..
Android has all the things you mentioned mate you can get apps for everything you mentioned i hope you give it a try and hopefully you like it..
True, there are fanboys everywhere and its disgusting. But @ OP, you just figured out the matrix, your free now and know the truth! I'm pretty sure whatever you can do on a jail broken iPhone, you can do it on an android phone ( maybe even without root ) so try the S3 and keep it if you like it, if not you can always, return it. Good luck

Hi Mbeaumont.....Let me share with you my personal experience....I use to have an IPhone 4....and was quite happy with it, till I realized that whenever I want to explore more the OS and make the best out of it....was a real nightmare, no way to play with the system even Jailbroken, the limits are there and the Break of the Jail was only a shadow door to endless issues and tricky sophistications....I'm not blaming Apple for doing that.....I do have all the Apple MacBook serie......but to me if you are an explorer and want to learn more about any device you buy the choice specifically in the mobile market is very obvious.
Since I have bought the S3 back in July......what an amazing experience it is.....this phone and especially this Android OS is a piece of art that will make every single day of your life for passionate people like me.
Finally I quote John Keating in the famous "Dead Poets Society" movie........"There's a time for daring and there's a time for caution, and a wise man understands which is called for."

I agree. Being polite costs nothing.
I made the same switch you did, and would not go back. My mother is now happy with the iphone 4 i gifted her, and I won't be leaving android anytime soon. But it's true that the app market is less appetizing on android atm, even if this is changing with time, and the change is speeding up. Yesterday handled the iphone a bit, looked like a kid's toy to me, even if i recon being happy using it all these years. Also the gs3 is HUGE compared to it and takes a little time totake a good grip on.

Hi
I just want to share this amazing software named Tvpaint Still is in beta but it has advanced tools. The Note is perfect for this software.
Download
This is an app from hell. I haven't seen the desktop version but, for sure looks like a full OS application on Android to me...
IMO, looks really complicated for the simple tools needed for sketching and drawing...
Secondly, if this app makes a full debut, I don't think this app will be cheap. The full desktop version costs around $500 bucks, so we'll see. The app has a time-bomb so it's only useable to November 30th (I think).

This app is my main workhorse for now, but I'm also not too hopeful on the price after it comes out of beta. Good chance I'll just make do w/ SKM and LayerPaint on my Note, w/ CS5 on my desktop to handle the remaining heavy lifting. Adobe really dropped the ball on PS Touch for this device.

IMO, looks really complicated for the simple tools needed for sketching and drawing...
Secondly, if this app makes a full debut, I don't think this app will be cheap. The full desktop version costs around $500 bucks, so we'll see. The app has a time-bomb so it's only useable to November 30th (I think).

You say all of this like a critic--- an artist ( like this one<----) spends nearly 70-90% of their income on supplies to 'create', or to breathe life into their vision--- case in point: I spent my last paycheck on this device on Monday. So I'm eating beans and rice for two weeks, so what? This is the first production-level mobile device available. Certainly superior to iPad.
Too complicated??? Do you not see it's animation software? I'd buy this app even it it were $50-$100. It may very well be one of the first 'full-OS' applications on android. Celebrate, don't complain!
And useable till Feb 2013....
EEYORE, please try not to shoot down other people's fun and excitement.... I was dumb enough to not look this up the other day because of your having poo-pooed it....
Along with the critics negative ratings of this tablet (personally I think they're being paid by apple) I hereby refuse to listen to any of you nay-sayers.
Thanks OP for the AWESOME score! This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for!!!
Will post first project once I get through the learning curve.
Peace!

I would love to see something made using this app.
I'm not even close to a "pro" so I wont be needing it, but I'm wondering what can be done with it.
Damn, this seems to be hell of a software... and definitely too professional for me without tutorials ^^
Would like to see whats possible with this app.
Though they could have given it a more polished/modern look, not that super-old windows style.

Well, I'm going through the manual now.
What appears complex to the novice is just another level of sophistication to the adept.

One thread in a forum I read suggest that it will cost $500+. It seems you buy a license for one install per all supported OS's. Example purchase of one license allows one copy on a mac desktop and one more on an ubuntu laptop. So if you already own a windows, mac or linux version you would get the android for free. When pushed for an answer the guy representing TVpaint was not much help. I read this a little while ago things may have changed since then.

I am not a critic, but would trully enjoy seeing a creation done using this app. If you don't want to make it public PM me. Thanks

I'm sorry if you thought I was jelly pooping all over the thread. I was just mentioning the fact that this is not an app; this is a full desktop software application on Android. I'm pretty sure this will be a really good app for the professional (like you). I assume that you do art work for some sort of living...
Now, I'm just a regular sketch monkey. And there are many like me; and I can't believe you don't seem to agree that this app has WAY too many buttons and menus... I like simplicity, even for my line of work - I'm an accountant. Again, sorry if my comments stepped on your hate pet.
For the poster that wanted to see this app in action; check this out:

And this ons for LayerPaint:

It'd be great to see an animation app with the simplicity of Corell Painter.
Not a hater here, just all I saw in your post was "not good enough"---hence the Eeyore comment. Lets be friends, mKay?
I make enough to scrape by, but yes, my artistic/creative endeavours fund my meager existence. The curve is steep on tvpaint, and it'd be tough to swing a $500 software purchase, so I'll get what I can done with it while its in beta.

A single user license for TVPaint is 1180 € (~$1500) for the Pro edition and 495 € (~$640) for the standard edition. Students can get a discount.
Since the app seems to want to fully emulate the desktop version, you might assume that they'd use the same pricing for an Android app. I'm not so sure of this - they could well introduce all-new pricing for mobile - but it's a possibility. I wouldn't however bet that you would get it for less than a couple of hundred.
