You must use wifi, USB is not a network connection.

Re: Samsung Galaxy Note
 

I don't see why. I've accessed the Motorola Droid 3 via USB perfectly, surely it must be possible on the Note.

Re: Samsung Galaxy Note
 

Go to settings, wireless, usb utilities.

I can not understand why usb settings are in there :-)

Re: Samsung Galaxy Note
 

And that's what I'm saying: there is nothing in the USB settings on the Note, just an option to connect mass storage, no "PC mode", no "none" like on the other phones.

That's why it doesn't bring up the usb interface on cable connection, methinks...

That's usually why the USB settings are there, but did you try to check actually check them? Or do you have something else there, is it ROM based? I have stock European ROM.

Re: Samsung Galaxy Note
 

(my Note is in Spanish, so I can not give you exact names of the menu)

Try this:

Settings / Application / Development / USB debugging

With that option enabled I was able to use a SyncMate, a software to sync my calendar.

My phone has is stock by the way :-)

Re: Samsung Galaxy Note
 

I have switched from the N900 to the galaxy note and I am trying to have a debian/ubuntu/any linux working on it similarly to easy-debian.
Which procedure did you use?
Is the app "linux installer" worth to try?

Thank you very much in advance!

Re: Samsung Galaxy Note
 

I made a partition on my external sdcard - 3.5 GB - and installed debian on it. Refer to http://www.mayrhofer.eu.org/debian-on-android

My startup script is in http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...postcount=4074

Don't forget defining your dns in /etc/resolv.conf on the debian partition!

This worked well both on Galaxy Note and Galaxy Tab :D

Re: Samsung Galaxy Note
 

Great! Thank you!
One more question:
Would be possible to use existing images? Such the one for easy debian or, maybe better, other existing for android?

(Grazie!)

Re: Samsung Galaxy Note
 

I have installed "BackTrack 5", too.

Using "Linux Installer" I installed "Debian 6" and "LibreOffice."

Re: Samsung Galaxy Note
 

I have never tried Qole's Easy Debian images. They could work though, why don't you try and report? :D

Alternatively I could make another updated debian image, and put it somewhere to download. Maybe later, now I can't help scratching the itch to upgrade the Note to latest "la4" firmware. :cool:
(I have been resisting for a fortnight but today the urge is too strong)

EDIT the upgrade was perfect, and resulted in a much smoother Note, and (the reason I did it) the possibility to sync my S-memo notes with Evernote.
