Can anyone recommend a handlebar mount? I'm thinking of using my phone as satnav and cycle computer.
There are a few on fleabay, but just wondering if anyone has first hand experience.

Hawkish is what I moved to.

I have moved to Cyanogen Mod 10.2 (4.3) now.
Its great! Has plenty of way to go but those guys have certainly moved on loads the last year.

What's wrong with 3.9? Flashed it earlier this week and seems to be working a treat.
Is there a recommended overclock for these?

Mine sits @ 500/2000mhz 24/7 and runs fine using the RedPill kernel
Gaming i clock it down to 1800 as the battery get really warm
Soldato
Do you undervolt?
Soldato
Not usually. Have done on a few occaisions.
i paused since the surprise of not being able to go back came up once people started to flash

Aaargh, went to grab my car key-fob from the pocket under my wheelchair, only for the lanyard to pull my phone out with it and drop onto the grass, about 35cm up.
The screen now has a large, but very fine crack - it still works, no noticeable damage to touch screen ability and seems no damage to the l*E*d.
I popped into speak to someone at the 3 store, whose advice was "Claim on your Home Insurance".
I've been given a number to call Samsung and arrange a repair at whatever cost, but surely there's a reasonable expectation for a phone to resist such minor impacts?
I'll call the 0330 number I've been given - presumably it's Samsung, but I'll not be happy if they attempt to charge me.

Bud it's your fault, they have the right to charge you. But good luck, it's worth a try.
The Note 2 doesn't have an LCD. It's OLED.
Agreed, the phone falling was my fault.
In contention: Whether I should have a reasonable expectation for an expensive device to survive a minor impact (35cm), onto grass, without significant damage

Seen a few comments about replacing the plastic around the edge of the Note 2, how easy is this to do?

I was having a clear out the other day when I came across my old HTC Hero. As it was going to get binned, and there just happened to be a 5lbs hammer nearby, I thought I'd break it. I held the HTC in my left hand and hit the screen with the hammer several times - not even a dent!Agreed, the phone falling was my fault.

Now, if a butterfly farts in China my Note II will implode!

Mmmm I was gonna hold off the 3 and stick with my trusted note2 but lack of update making me want note3. Pesky Samsung marketing
