Anyone in here had any luck with a MIUI rom? Been trying to install but with very little luck.

Short answer is no, the Note 2 battery is just too beast. It is however a very good improvement over the battery life on the S3 which I thought was terrible.

Thanks! I guess you are right the 3100mah is too much hard to beat. I can have my note2 off the charger 6in the morning and by 12mid night I still have about 20 to 25% of battery left that's around 18hours Lol.

I'm planning on unlocking mine with the fastgsm usb method.
Other people said cellunlocker.net was decent.

ZeroLemon has some crazy batteries, but not everyone can live with the size and weight. If you can live with it, you can get 10-12 hours screen time over the period of 48 hours on LTE without wifi.

The note 2 battery is 3100 mAh while the S4 2600 mAh
you can do the math
But the note 2 is 720p resolution for a bigger screen
While the S4 is 1080p resolution for a smaller screen
also the note 2 is only 267 pixel density
while the S4 is 441 pixel density

skip the note 2 and go pick up a note 3 imo, note 2's specs are very outdated for the size

heh, i jammed my 128gb card into my S4 with the extended battery :)

I have the note2. Still very good espeically with the crazy battery. Just is too big for me. S4 looks good but really expensive to an unlock out.... might wait for the Nexus5......

IMO, the note 2's screen is really low quality, I've had the Note 2 and Note 1 and honestly, it felt like they both had the same screen specs. Or very similar.

Was it brand new when you bought it? My friend bought a S3 and complained about this too until I found that the previous owner rooted it and never bothered getting rid of the Rogers bloat. I have no idea why the previous owner rooted it then if it wasnt for that LOL.

My stock phone app keypad seems to be off center.. Any way to fix this? It cuts off the last 2 or 3 digits off a phone number

GO the S4 today. Feels slower than my note2 lol. Even after doing some disabling apps and stuff note2 (unlock) still seems a lot faster. There is like a split second when doing anything on the S4 while the note2 is smooth.

It worked just fine for me on my stock browser. I had installed an older apk that I had saved to my email and previously used successfully on my S3.

Using the Slim Armor View Case for my S4 right now looks pretty cool!
Amazon.com: SPIGEN SGP SGP10344 Slim Armor View Case for Samsung Galaxy S4 - Retail Packaging - Infinity White: Cell Phones & Accessories
got the white one. I got it at crystal mall for $35. I am sure if you huggle the price you can get it for $30. They only have white, red and black left.

For SGH-M919, SGH-1337, & SGH-1337M Models
While the above process is supposed to work for most Samsung Galaxy S4s, there was trouble accessing the UMTS MAIN MENU with our Galaxy S4 (SGH-1337). If you got it to work or know of another way to access the menu, let us know how.
anyone with those models got it to work following those instructions? im on rogers with the SGH-1337M.
