Galaxy Note 2 master Accessories List

[peter7769]

hi there, i have the galaxy note 2, i dont know how i did it but i have somehow managed to add a drop down menu to my home screen and i dont know how to get rid of it, sorry its not the best explanation but i dont know how else to describe it, but if anyone understands what i am on about can you please help me?!

Hi, you should really make your own thread for this as this is a thread for accessories, but when you say drop down, are you talking about the tab on the left hand side of the screen? If so then this is the multi tasking menu, to enable /disable just press the back key and keep it pressed for a few seconds

BB ran this deal for 4 hours over the weekend. i saw this morning that it appears to be back. ([Deal Alert] 64GB SanDisk Ultra MicroSD Card For $43 From Best Buy (Today Only)). thought i would let people with phones that actually have storage options know.

^^ dang that is the best price I have ever seen for the 64 micro sd.. I need one. To bad I missed it. I'll keep a look out for more deals coming up.


Has anyone found a DUAL charging car adapter? I read some reviews that some dual car chargers wont charge their Android even the ones that claim to be 2A and 1A. I need to share with my GF who is an iphone user.. lol

Thanks!

This would be really useful for some of those coming over from the iPhone and happened to be invested in lots of iPhone/iPod docks.

Amazon.com: CoolStream Bluetooth Receiver for iPhone Dock. 30-Pin Adapter Turns iPhone/iPod docking station into a Bluetooth dock.: Cell Phones & Accessories

If it's too expensive, just for bluetooth integration (which I believe, it is a 'bit overpriced), here's another wired alternative (which I'm likely to get for a couple of docks I had purchased for an iPod a few years back):

I don't use a screen cover. Instead, I bought a Speck case so that even if you set the phone on its face, the screen is further back and never touches anything and doesn't add bulk to the phone.

Also, if you travel or watch movies on your phone a lot, a phone case w/Built-In Battery might be a good idea. This case from the AT&T store is real leather, props-up, and when you plug-in the charger it charges both the battery in the case and your phone at the same time:

IMO, the smart dock is better and safer. I never trust wireless connection for important stuffs, such as presentation. I prefer to use USB cable/ hdmi to do that.
I think the battery charger is a steal, and you can get 50% discount if you buy it from the samsung online store. So, its around 25 bucks for charger + battery! There are some people sharing the discount code in this thread

I just wish Samsung would get back stock already. It's been a couple weeks and I still haven't been able to order.

Does the Samsung flip cover work with extra protectors? Such as the flip cover and a gel skin?

I dont think i can get deals from smasung online sotres as am not in US am in kenya, so dont think it will work out, the best price i got on Ebay is 47.80 $ free shipping to kenya from korea and its for both charger and the battery.

Now regarding the wireless dock, its samsung original part, i am still confused as i really dont like to get stucked with wires and the smart dock, as i want be even able to drow something on the device while doing my presentation?
Have anyone here tried the samsung all share wireless? does the connection goes off?
also with smart dock it means even if the device battery is fully charged and you place it on the dock it will start charging again, and as i know that will affect the battery life

hi a quick question maybe you can answer. does the oem samsung spare battery and charger dock actually come with the spare battery and does it work with the verizon model? i noticed the verizon model uses a different battery. just wondering if anyone knows. thanks

This comes with a spare battery, but it is not a charging desktop dock, more-so a stand (which, because of the great battery, I never really have a need to have the phone continually charged...due to all the extra batteries I have now):
Galaxy Note

This doesn't come with a spare battery, but is a charging stand/dock:
Samsung Galaxy Universal Multimedia Desktop Dock

Only real question is if the extra battery that comes with the charging kit will work with Verizon, since Verizon/US Cellular have a separate battery listed on Samsung's website:
Galaxy Note

Before purchasing the extra battery kit (w/ stand), I would contact Samsung first, just to verify that the batteries will work properly with the Verizon version.

I actually purchased both; the battery specifically for Verizon as well as the battery and charger dock and both came with the exact same battery. My only question now is whether that is accurate or did they shipped me the wrong battery? I won't know for sure until tomorrow when my Verizon branded phone arrives. If they did ship me the wrong one it is going back!

Rumor is the Battery supplied with the Verizon Note 2 is unique as it also contains the NFC chip.

All other Note 2s have the NFC chip mounted on inside of the rear cover.

According to Samsungs site, Verizon and US Cellular use the same battery.
