Galaxy S2 HD LTE (SGH-I757M) - Resources

Phone Model: Samsung SGH-I757M
Phone Provider: Bell Mobility
Provider's Phone Name: Galaxy S2 HD LTE
The Samsung Galaxy S2 HD LTE is a mouthful. I say this in both a literal and joking way. This powerful is totally worth the cost for those who are not sure they are ready to shell out the money for a Samsung Galaxy S3. The model contains all the best hardware features of virtually all the S2's out there and packages them into one device. It is likely that Samsung expected to release this unit way earlier than it did. Only a few months shy of the S3, it has quickly become dwarfed in Bell Mobility stores.
Still, there are many of us who appreciate the phone. XDA does not have an official section of the page for the phone so often finding resources can be difficult. This thread is intended to be a resource guide for all those with the phone.
I free welcome additions to this page. As valid (and functionally tested) apps, mods, roms, and themes are shared with the thread, I will update it for all.

ClockworkMod Recovery
There are a few options out there for ClockworkMod Recovery for the the S2 HD LTE. It is in my opinion that dsixda here on XDA has the most efficient version for the phone.
ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.1.1
by dsixda
* There have been some issues reported applying ClockworkMod Recovery to the phone after applying the Bell ICS Update.

Bell ROMs
For the time being you can find stock ROMs on dsixda's ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.1.1 page.
Custom ROMs (Android Firmware v2.3.6)
DexRom3.0 SGS2 HD LTE (Toggle Bar added!!)
by markdexter
Custom ROMs (Android Firmware v4.0.4)
CyanogenMod 9
by dsixda (Project about to become retired.)

Recommended Free Apps by XDA Developers
Stock ICS Launcher, Calendar and Messaging (SMS/MMS) apps!
by Timmmmmm
Theses are perfect stock replacement options for the Calendar, Messaging, and Launcher for those who are less of a fan of what Samsung has to offer. For those using the Bell Samsung ROM, you will find wallpaper issues with the Launcher and will notice that you cannot disable/remove the native Messaging app (without disabling the phone's ability to send/receive messages.)
Jelly Bean Keyboard port - Beta 1.2
by appelflap
For those who prefer more of a stock keyboard, this is my personal favorite so far.
Mi File Explorer v3.0.4
by apooonet
This file explorer is simple to use. Its graphical interface is far the best option out there.
Mi Sound Recorder v1.3 (MP3, OGG)
by apooonet
Samsung provides the phone with a sound record however it is limited in comparison to this handy app.

US Cellular’s Galaxy Note 3 to get KitKat update starting February 19

Samsung’s all set to roll out the Android 4.4 KitKat update to its devices, and it seems US Cellular could be among the first carriers to update both flagship smartphones that the Korean giant launched last year. Earlier this week, a leaked document confirmed that US Cellular would be pushing out the KitKat update to the Galaxy S4 from February 19th, and now another leaked document indicates that Galaxy Note 3 owners will start getting the coveted update on the same day as well. It would perhaps be the first time that both yesteryear flagships are getting a major update on the same day, and for the end-user that’s a pretty good thing.
Android 4.4 KitKat brings numerous new features, such as white status bar icons, faster performance and a smoother UI, cloud printing support, NFC tap and pay functionality, a user-facing setting for selecting the default messaging and launcher apps, a camera shortcut on the homescreen, improved Samsung keyboard, and reduced memory usage. As always, the update’s rollout will be staggered, which means it will be a few days before it arrives on every user’s device, though you might want to do manual checks in the Settings » General » About device » Software updates menu to fast-track the process.

Transfer/Import Action Memos from Galaxy Note 3 to Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 tablet?

Aim:
Transfer/Import Action Memos from Galaxy Note 3 to Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 tablet
Methodology attempted:
I have tried copying the files from .ActionMemo (qspd) and Action Memo (jpg) folder on my Galaxy Note 3 and put them in the corresponding folders on my new Note Pro tablet.
Results:
The tablet cannot see the Action Memos. Only memos I create on the tablet. I don't understand why.
Discussion:
Is it possible to do this? Are there any other files that need to be copied over? Theoretically this should all be working (hypothetically maybe as until someone can prove this works in theory). This is handy where one/I would want to keep action memos synced across devices. Any suggestions/guidance welcome.
PS excuse the scientific method above, it is form my high school chemistry class days!!
