I believe that the Rogers Note 3 will work with Fido right out of the box, as was the case when I had the Rogers Note 2.

I can support that too, my parents renewed the contract for the note 3, and i threw in my fido, worked like a charm.

You could try altering the pixel density to make things nicer. You'll need root. However I don't know what'll happen on this version of touchwiz.

you can change the clock size?!

anyhow, things ive found and noted:

- most commonly used links/apps/programs are now within a link called "samsung". this includes the calculator, my files...etc
- programs do more shutting down than running in the background. it could be the program and its latest update or actually something.
- learning to use the stylish more.
- the phone should be more powerful, yet on some programs i find it lags more than others.
- the new cable is usb3.0. have yet to really try it out.


the screen isnt "rounded" out, its still the same, however the surface and face is more longer (like when the iphoen 5 came out). thats for the screen being able to be 1080.

ive had it for a week and a bit now. i like the fact its thinner. but i dont find the battery life all that much better.
