I think the latest samsung keyboard may have incorporated some Swiftkey elements. The prediction is miles better than it was on Note 2.

Only thing that could be better would probably be the punctuation.... in Swiftkey you hold the punctuation key and it brings up a box of commonly used symbols and you just slide to the desired one and it will enter that and the box disappears. On this version of Samsung keyboard, it doesn't behave that way sadly....

yup samsung teamed up with Swiftkey to do the keyboard, since S4

I still like Swiftkey for the themes. Their orange/black theme my favourite.

eh vulpix, maybe you can come up with a guide on how to do basic rooting and enable Nova. that will help the newbies

when N2 launched last year, after the official launched date, it went OOS till 3 weeks later.

And furthermore the price is kept high at 998 - 1000 in retail stores.

i couldn't find any in the retailers then LLST have to buy from Samsung Stores which costs 1000 (mbs)

now we see the price has dropped from 1048 to 948 in retail stores. Another place i passed by, they are retailing at 800+ with local warranty.

price drops so fast within a week of released/launched, so can see that N3 is not as demanding as N2.

Wow..mind sharing where you have seen it retailing for 800+? if really 800+ i will faster go buy today...haha...

Nah, no time these days. Plus rooting voids warranty right now, no way to reset counter. Those who knows or want to root will know how to find their way via XDA.

Hi everybody note 2 user here. Has anyone try the MHL TV out from note 3?

I tested, but got some issue, the home screen cannot rotate to landscape mode when connected. Btw, I am using the MHL adapter for S3, but not the original one.

can someone recommend the best way to transfer contacts and sms from iphone to android? i've never used android before.

for contact i used outlook to import to pc first from iphone, then import into your note 3 later. quite straight forward...

sms not sure...
