I am in desperate need for a Proclip holder for AT&T S4. It looks like the one for S3 will fit the S4 but i am not sure..

See here: http://www.proclipusa.com/phone-hol...d-cigarette-lighter-adapter-512398-18987.cmsv

Does anyone with a S3 pro-clip holder has any experience placing the S4 in it ? I have the S2 Pro-clip and an iPhone pro-clip on the other car and they are super quality devices.. Note I am looking after the one with the charger option.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] richlean:
+1 I, too, am a fan of the proclips. Has anyone got an answer to this? I don't think there's an S4 proclip available yet.

Hi

We have just launched two active holders for the Galaxy S4, the item numbers are 512526 and 513526. We will also launch a holder that fits devices with skins but it is not yet ready.

I forgot to mention. The manufacturer is brodit if you check their website the have a few options listed for the s4

Sorry I cant post links yet

Answering my own question...

http://www.proclipusa.com/phone-hol...-and-cigarette-lighter-plug-512526-19356.cmsv

I have never had any car holder with charger , better than proclip..

Recommending (and no, I do not get commission for this .. )

It will be my 5th holder with them, for different phones.

I guess this will not work in combination with the samsung flip-cover?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] greenfield:
They informed me that they are developing a holder that will suit the s4 with skins/cases . They didn't have a date as of yet

Im waiting fot that too
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] bennetski:
brodit

Absolutely agree about the brodit proclips system, absolutely perfect. My iphone one worked like a dream and really want to get one for my S4 buuuutttt, Im using arliberator and dont know if I can use any of the docks in conjunction with the mhl connector
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] bookmonke:
It will work with the flip cover as long as you get the adjustable one, I was using with the cover closed, just don't put the right side in and you can still flip open but tight. And I also used it with the cover flipped behind, just had to adjust the holder to fit the leather flip on the left side and the phone on the right. I will post pictures after I go back to the case, using a slim armor for the time being, it fits good too.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] CZ Eddie:
I assume you meant the dock and not the dock holder?

Why do you keep buying all these docks?

I would recommend the Craigsdock dock. The one single dock will work with all Galaxy series phones, including Note II. So you just buy one dock and it fits them all. And you don't have to worry about whether you have an extended battery or cover. It still fits. And all in a slimmer/smaller package than the ProClip and with a better (IMO) charging solution.

I've had the ProClip dock. I like the Craigsdock dock better. And with the Craigsdock, you can change the type of USB connector easily. For non-carhome mode, for USB-OTG or for any other type of MicroUSB connector you may need. And it's an easy swapout.

Just a heads up.

Though the ProClip dock "holder/mounting base" is pretty nice.

http://www.craigsdocks.com/samsung-galaxy-s3/
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] greenfield:
I have the brodit active dock with usb connection. This model suits the phone with case .

Photo shows the s3 but works on s4 too.

Maybe you can use mhl via the usb I dont have mhl so I cant test.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] bennetski:
Is the wire fixed in to the dock. My old iPhone one had a fixed jack in the dock and you plugged the iPhone into the cable into the fixed jack. I emailed Brodit about their g4 active dock because it comes with a molex connector block. I wanted to know what connections the block took but I don't think they understood me
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] greenfield:
I dont have the active holder with the molex connector. Mine has a male usb . The wire is fixed to the dock . See pic.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] bennetski:
OK thanks so I wouldn't be able to use an mhl adapter with it like I need to on that model.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] greenfield:
Unless you can plug in the mhl adapter to the male end of the usb lead and from there into the charger via some sort of adapter.

G
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] bennetski:
That's why I'm looking at the one with the molex connector. It was so easy with the iPhone. You just plugged the iPhone cable into the bottom of the holder. I was kinda hoping it would be the same with the s4 one.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ramk13:
I think the difference is that there is somewhat of a standard with Apple dock/lightning cables, but it's a zoo with micro-USB male adapters. There's no standard shape for them to machine to. I suppose they could match the OEM cable, but most people only have one of those.

I was just told by a friend of mine who's father works for Samsung that the OTA coming out for our phone has a root proof kernel. He said stay away. . I don't know why Samsung would do that . I'm waiting to find out more.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ACoolGuy:
This should be no problem as you can just flash a Stock kernel. Or the newer kernels can be made to remove this likely. Either way, since we can flash kernels, we should be ok.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] joemagistro:
its true... look at the tmobile forum.. alot of members took this update and can no longer root..

Ya I don't know If it has to do with sprint. They've been talking about this for a while over in the original international s4 forum.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] shabbypenguin:
a permanent solution is being worked on, til its available if you want root you will have newest rom and stock kernel. thats all :) (until kernel source is released :) )
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] eyecon82:
I already OTA updated. Sprint better not pull any shenanigans
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ACoolGuy:
Just a heads up from the tmobile forum, newest firmware + stock kernel = wifi issues and app issues. newest firmware + newest kernel = no root. Obviously this is just tmobile users reporting, but I would have to think it would be similar for us. If you don't like the update, about 95% sure you can odin back to stock firmware without any issue. I personally will wait till source drops and a work around is in place.

On a brighter note, most/all people who have taken the plunge and updated, are reporting performance increases in transitions. Here's to hoping the occasional stutter/lag is gone!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mghinc:
I tried following the suggestions from ewdb on the board but when I upgraded my 2020 it went from Rom 1.72.02 FRA to 1.66.02FRA and still in French. The web site had a choice of French upgrade or English upgrade and when I chose English the message I got was the wrong language. So I did the French upgrade and it took my 2020 back to Rom 1.66.02FRA. The files I downloaded are RUU166223WWE and RUU166219FRA. Are these the files to change the language from English to French? Thank you in advance.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rodinhas:
yes, the WWE means World Wide English. By now you already know what means FRA.

:lol:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mghinc:
After attempt to change 2020 to English using ewdb info:

My Qtek 2020 French changed after my attempt to change to English:

Before:

Rom 1.72.02FRA to 1.66.02FRA

Date 4-13-04 2-23-04

Radio 1.14.00 1.10.00

Version de proto 1337.24 1337.18

Version de rom 1.72.540 1.66.219

What I did wrong is I tried to use the French software RUU166219FRA to change my 2020 becasue I could not install the RUU166223WWE. During the install it gave me a language error message and I could not continue the install. At that point, I tried the French software and sent my Qtek 2020 backwards.

Some have suggested that I will need to change some hardware to change the language to English.

Thanks again

I have a galaxy dock cable I've used on my s3 that has micro Usb male to Usb A male and 1/8th inch male. This is used on my car dock for audio and charging thru a single cable out of the micro Usb slot on the s3.

The s4 does not charge, recognize Usb is plugged in or detect audio when I plug the cable in. Are the s4 pin outs different than the s3? I have already checked my dock accessory settings to make sure that wasn't the problem. Any thoughts? Is there an s4 version of this cable?

Theres a thread out about how the xprodock is one of the only ones that actually works with the s4. Something changed with the dock architecture with the s4 I think. So if you're using an older dock cable then it would reason that it doesn't work.

I am traveling to Spain for 3 weeks in August and plan to bring my Note 2 with me. I would like to be able to use data and make phone calls while there without getting hit with Verizon's roaming charges. I know I need to buy a SIM card over there and possibly tweak the APN settings? I was hoping some of you fellow XDA'ers could relate their experiences with doing this. FYI I am running Beans B14.

Thanks,

I'm interested in this as well. I'm going to Estonia at the end of this month.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shadowdweller:
Have you looked into Google Voice with Groove IP? If you have wifi signal over in Spain, you can make and receive calls from your Google voice number. It's like having wifi calling from T-Mobile.

I was interested in the same thing and that is the easiest solution I have come up with. I'd like to know if there are other solutions as well, without using wifi because wifi might not be available everywhere.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jcollier:
I'm traveling next month and it will be the first time with the Note2, however, I did this extensively with a previous phone. High level: You get a prepaid SIM for a wireless carrier of your choice. (Example - In France, I have an Orange SIM with minutes and data). Change this out when you land and replace your Verizon sim (put it somewhere safe). Then change your APN to the required settings for that carrier. I just searched on the internet to find the right settings. And that was that!

Hoping it is that easy with the Note2. :highfive:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mtrain:
I would love to hear your experience after you get back from your trip next month.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] LRiley:
In Afghanistan right now with a local sim(roshan). It's works fine and I have Internet. Long as you're on a custom rom sim cards should just pop in and work. Far as Internet find apn settings and just add the apn. Haven't had any problems, also my Google voice is still linked to my Verizon number so I still get those voice mails and can still send text from my gv number
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aliceay:
Except buying local sim cards overseas you can also buy one sim card with a wide coverage. F.ex MTXConnect data-only sim card covers more than 20 European countries. I use this one for travelling to Europe and I didn't have any problems with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] koohiisan:
Sorry for the newbie-ish question, but I hope to get a solid answer before I make a purchase.

I'm running an Android phone on AT&T currently via a GoPhone sim. I don't have or use data, and I don't even care about it. All I use it for is voice/sms/wifi-data. But, I'm needing to replace the phone. What I'd like to do is get a Galaxy Note II, but *keep* the same GoPhone account setup...no data...no mms...just plain old voice/sms.

So, my two questions:

1) I've seen threads about persons trying to make it work with data and the proper apn, but has anyone had success using this just as a 'dumbphone' on their $0.10/minute cheap GoPhone plan?

2) Will I have to get another sim card (micro), and have AT&T transfer my account to it? Or, will I need to cut my current one (normal size) down? Will that work?

Thanks for your patience and expertise!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] koohiisan:
Yes, I've tried GN2 as a GoPhone!

Okay, Koohiisan, let me see if I can answer your questions for you.

Sometimes you just have to buy something and try it out to be certain. I did that, and now I think I can answer your questions in a meaningful way.

You'll be pleased to know that yes, you can do this with 100% success! Like yourself, I had a GoPhone account and the GoPhone SIM to go with it. After receiving my Galaxy Note II, I pulled the SIM from my prior phone, cut it with a SIM cutter (normal -> micro) and put it in the Galaxy Note II. It booted up, detected the SIM, and connected to AT&T's network with zero issues! Calling and SMS works perfectly with no changes needed.

I did disable the APN using APNDroid, just so I wouldn't run afoul of AT&T's network since I, like yourself, didn't have data at all.

So, to answer: yes, you can take a GoPhone SIM, cut it (by hand or with a dedicated cutting tool), and install it in a Galaxy Note II and it will work with no issues! Hope this helps! ;D

800 dollar phone with no data,, seems like a sin ..lol jj
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] koohiisan:
What can I say? :)

I know...it's tempting to add it...but I did the get phone for less than *half* that price, and I'm incredibly cheap. :)

picture messaging

hello, i did the samething except i cant get my picture messaging to work on my SGH-I317 Note 2. Using the APNDroid that you talked about will it help the issue with picture messaging.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] koohiisan:
Don't think so, sorry...

As I understand it, MMS (picture messaging) requires data. If you are running this same comfiguration I am (dumb-phone GoPhone SIM without data), then you won't be able to get MMS.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bob60626:
I thought the default GoPhone plans included mms?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] koohiisan:
GoPhone data APN is different?

I can't post a link to it due to my post count, but if you Google for "How to use an AT&T GoPhone data plan with a 4G Android or iPhone" you'll find the post from marathon studios that I just read on this subject. According to that site, it looks like the GoPhone data APN is actually 3G, and is different from the 4G AT&T APN. So without using APNdroid to change to the proper settings your phone would be pointed by default to the wrong APN.

According to that article, however, you still need to have a GoPhone data package on your plan. I'm on the cheapest $0.10/min plan and I can not add a data package to that plan...so like I said...if you are in my same situation you'll never be able to do it because you can't add the data. :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ziken:
LOL...I actually went and spoke to an AT&T customers when I had GoPhone. You CAN get MMS if you're on a phone that is 3G only. Any smartphone requires that you buy the data package to receive it.

Also, you'll have to forgo MMS or use a 3rd party Text Message like PINGER or such to receive MMS. However, if you're on a regular phone, you can only pay a few cents per kb download. this also apply to 3G with data package. I hope this help. Oh, and it doesn't work on iPhone 4/4s or any 4G phone.

I was told by HTC to send pictures on HTC's contact form located here https://support.htc.com/en-us and click open ticket, so i did that and sent dropbox links to my photos. I got a basically scripted reply saying to send my phone into HTC and they will examine it blah blah so i called the tech support number provided 1-866-449-8358 and to be honest to guy was a complete a** hole. he said if this is really an issue then i need to have other people call in etc. I was told to submit these pictures to have them attached to my current ticket on this issue, that was a lie.

SO here I am, requesting anyone with this issue to PLEASE contact HTC and let them know this is unacceptable, It is not Isolated and it needs to be repaired. Even if you never take pictures in the dark,

I have had half a dozen android phones and every one has been able to focus in the dark using either manual focus or by pressing and holding the shutter button until it focuses and then snapping the photo.

but this one takes blurry photos.

Please help me in getting the message to HTC and hopefully this will get addressed.

Thank you all for your help, sincerely,

I would be more than willing also but that number is for HTC US. Don't wanna call long distance just for that issue.

Although you have a point. They didn't implement a dual level hardware camera button so they should have recreated in on the software side... Perhaps there should be an option where you tap the camera button to focus and light up the flash and the next tap would be to shoot.
