egg man Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Now what is the problem with 1 GB? Seriously if you are planning to play games on mobile regularly, dont bother. Most of the good looking games are rip-offs and plain boring. And the controls are just terrible. Especially all those shitty Gameloft games. I have bought many of them when I got S2 thinking they would be fun, but the controls were so atrocious that I regret buying them, Not to mention heating up of the device. Only good mobile games are those casual time pass games, and they dont even need 512 mb RAM. So dont let RAM be a deciding factor at all. And I open a ton of apps on my S2 without any lag. It has "only" 1 GB RAM and has latest Android i.e. 4.2.2 It's not that 1 gb is less.. The touchwiz is the issue in S3. Anyone who upgraded from s2 to s3 would tell you that s2 is far superior in multitasking. In clearing ram s2 goes in 300-400 ram, S3 600-700 on a good day. And it's not about games. I don't play the heavy games at all. It's the tab refreshing, launcher reloads, tapatalk getting refreshed when I've just browsed through gallery etc etc kinda daily issue. Ofcourse if you someone is fine with rooting and put AOSP, or use the Xposed framework it's not an issue. But the ram management in S3 touchwiz is just horrible. _________________________________ Typed with one finger on a sheet of glass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarthak Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Hey Guys, I'm using a Note 2 since a few months, im thinking of putting a Custom Rom on it. I am looking for suggestions: 1. Paranoid Android but ill need an App which utilizes the S-Pen for Note Taking 2. AOKP with the same requirements 3. Touch Wiz based Rom (not a big fan of Touch Wiz) P.S. I know about XDA but the vast amount of information makes me feel lost. If i could get simpler guides for rooting and/or articles explaining the same and thus would be wonderful. As of right now im a Total Noob when it comes to Android, its my first Android Phone P.P.S. Anyone used the Note 8, thinking of Picking it up for Note-Taking as the Note 2s 5.5" screen feels a bit small for the task. Most probably replace it with an OPPO Find 5 or Whatever New Nexus Google announces barring that it has 32GB internal Memory. Note 2s 16GB feels too less. Thanks a Ton Guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a Ton Guys exactly why do you want a custom ROM and why would you want more internal memory, get a card, much cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Boss Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 dude congrats, also please post a small review of yours about the phone, it will be nice to know somebody's perspective coming form Symbian and using Android after it is well matured. Just ask me. I was a Symbian fanboy since 2003, owned 3 symbian devices i.e 6630, N70 ME and N82. In fact, I was an admin on a very popular Indian Symbian forum, (which soon turned into a adult site ). And for me, migration from Symbian to Android has been fantastic and perfect upgrade.
