[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] JoeFCaputo113:
I personally will not because it's just wayyyy to ridiculously big in my opinion lol. The new features look pretty damn sick though not gonna lie!

Multitasking on the Note 3

Scrapbook on the Note

S-Finder on the Note 3

Gamepad on the Note 3

I highly recommend watching the new multitasking, I PRAYYY that we get that, looks pretty damn cool!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jejb:
Agreed, just far too big to consider for a phone I'd be willing to carry around. Nice features, and I'm sure it's a great device. But I'm not into Phablets.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] CCallahan:
If I was due for an upgrade would for sure consider it just because of hardware/functionality. Think I would get used to the size as long as the screen looks nice. However, with the S4 and Note 8 I would not be gaining much if anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] beerindex:
Not me. While I would love to own one, I don't hate money enough to pay full price for a relatively marginal upgrade three months after getting a phone I am very happy with.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] maxpower7:
My upgrade date is in December. I'll probably sell the S4 and get a Note 3 then. I think it looks amazing, expecially the multitasking features, not to mention the Snapdragon 800 and 3 gigs of ram. I don't mind the size at all.

I'm extremely happy with my S4 but will definitely take a look at the Note 3. It's a bit big but the features that they have shown in their promo video seems like something I could use.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] vinnyjr:
I'm on that beast the day it's released. The Note 3 is more powerful than most laptops. Love everything about it and finally Samsung increased the internal storage along with everything on the phone. After market accessories will be a plenty. Thank You Samsung.

Well I have 3 lines and I get all the upgrades so my s4 will be off to my gf and I be getting the note 3 . I might have to wait til christmas to get it because the xbox one will consume much of my play money.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] KrypticOnyx:
I'll stay with my S4 it does everything I need it too already. Multitask already have a app for that, Gamepad I use ps3 controller with the sixaxis app, etc etc...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mikeyfreeman:
It looks like a a pretty sweet ride, but for what I need my phone for it's just way too big.

The s4 is borderline too big to carry in the environment I work in!

I'll probably be switching to Note 3 when Note 4 is released :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] pcmanager:
I was already at two and a half years on the Epic 4G Touch, patiently awaiting an upgrade to the note 3. Well two weeks ago I got the blue light of death (hard bricked) on my old 4G Touch. So I had to go for another phone and thought I would be very happy with the s4. Well wouldn't you know it two days after I have my s4 reading on XDA of all the awesome customizations and tweak apps I can install on the phone I was very happy that is until the Note 3 specs came out. The rep that sold me the S4 extended my exchange time by 15 days until the 25th of September. He said to contact him or come in before that date and he would extend it again then when the note 3 comes out around October 1st or 2nd he will exchange me into that phone at no charge and swap all accessories I have already purchased for the s4. I really want to note 3 but it is a huge beast to carry around in a working environment and play environment also but I think I'm going to go for it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] GiantJay:
It's a very nice device. Nice looks and feel. A Samsung rep brought one into to my work, Best buy a couple days ago. The back feels like leather and the front has kind of a wood grain or brushed look and the one he had, black was actually a dark black not like the S4.

Seems we think alike, I ask the rep if he was going to put that in writing, he printed out a receipt with the new Exchange date, and I've been taking notes to keep them honest. I'll post an update in this thread after a successful exchange to the note 3.

Hello

I'm looking for a way to backup the family android devices to the home NAS (synology) for backing up photos, videos, music mainly. I want it to be configurable so I can set it that its one way sync, so we can delete files off the phone when they start filling up (or when I wipe for a new ROM for example)

Ideas?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rightonbro:
I am attempting to replace my Nexus 7 digitizer and LCD screen with one I purchased from gadgetfix on eBay, and I can't get the replacement screen to power on. Can someone advise me on things I can try to get it working?

I used a guide on Android Authority and understand that there's two ribbon cables that need to be re-connected (one that feeds through the body of the tablet, and one dual-connector that wraps around the side), as well as the power connector.

I can tell that the Nexus does power up when everything is re-assembled and I press the power on button. Plug it into my Mac, and Android File Transfer boots up. I think the digitizer is responding because when I touch the screen, it says stuff like "Welcome" and "English United Kingdom" (I'm guessing this is the Welcome language selection screen).

If I press the power button while it's turned on, it says "Screen off." Also, at one point it said "1:30am ringer 70 percent."

This is my second attempt at this - after returning/replacing the first one, I encountered the same issue. So I'm starting to think it's either my tablet or something I'm doing.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] za168:
have the same problem here... and many more out there...

bought new screen & digitizer from china phone accessories as recommended from you tube user... specifically requested for 3G model since it seems that different version has different screen...

fixed today, already checked the connection multiple times, but the screen wont show anything... there's power for the screen... is there anyway to workaround it... tried the power + volume button press but still no respond... since there's no respond on this thread for more than a year, it must be very bad issue...

would try to swap screen with my other unit but afraid the worst could happen, both unit wont show anything...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seadra:
So, here's the screenshot of my WLD for kernal wakelocks.

Don't count deep sleep in this, as I reboot my phone every morning as a temporary solution. But finally thought of making this thread after having so low battery life.

Whenever I connect my USB to computer for charging or AC Charger, the wakelock starts. Yes I have read so many threads about the same problem, but what I have seen is, it can be completely removed by using custom kernals, roms etc.

I'm a very normal user till now, with no knowledge on how to root, use custom roms, or flash kernals or w/e. I am a simple nexus 4 user with stock android which I absolutely love, but I hate the fact that Google haven't given a crucial update about this problem and left the customers of their stock android with no solution other than just reboot as a temporary fix.

So, anyone there help me out please to how to correct this problem in stock android ? I have already tried reset, and though it did help for first few days, but eventually the problem comes back again.

Please don't tell me to learn rooting, and other stuff. Yes, when the times come , I sure will get to know alot about these things, but I'm busy with my real life for now and would really like to stop this problem for the time being, till I learn the upper level stuff.

Please don't reply me saying what apps I use and stuff, I'm a n00b I know, but now of that level who doesn't know anything. I know the apps isn't causing this, it's the USB connector and sometimes the 3G ( which I use rarely these days now just because of this problem. )

Thanks in advance for helping a n00b out here. :highfive:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DecypherT:
If you don't want to put time in getting to know android. You will never fix wake locks. They will keep coming (I had 3 different ones in the first 3 weeks I got my N4).

Fixing wake locks will only have result if you look into it.

Telling that you won't even bother to is not working either way.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seadra:
Good comment, thanks for the reply/

Now, I already said on my first post that, yes I will be learning android soon, but not right now or for atleast couple of months as I don't have time in my real life. I have gotten couple of wake locks too, but all can be resolved easily except the one caused by USB. I trust Google, and that was my primary reason to buy a Nexus 4. If you want to say that this error can only be removed by custom kernals and whatnot, so that means 80% of people will be facing this problem. ( not counting the 20% of people that are either devs or just want to customise their nexus 4 ).

So, google will not care abt those people ? Nice. Great! I don't want to learn how to flash custom kernals, and I can't resolve the problems Nexus 4 has. Awesome.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seadra:
Man, Please don't reply with those silly links. I have already said in my first post that I have read many many threads about it by using the search function. My problem is not exactly the same mentioned in that thread.Either way, I have read enough and I want a fix which can be done on stock android and not customized one. Either by Google or by devs here who can suggest something regarding this.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DecypherT:
I was too soon with my judgement then.

To be honest. I think 80% of the people with N4's have wake locks. Only they don't look into battery drains and the other signs.

I had a HTC Desire HD for 2 years and had only 2 or 3 wake locks in that time.

The N4 is much more sensitive to wake locks in my opinion. Maybe it has to do with the newer android version. That I don't know.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxo60:
Well, in that case, I think you don't even know how to read, because the answer is already there on the "Android OS" wakelock as I said. If you want magical and quick answers, guess what?, there are none. You came here asking for help, we answered according what we think are good answers, but if you think this is silly, then keep your phone like that; at the end, you are the one with the problem, not us.

You want fixes and answers without making anything, so how do you expect to find a solution to your problem?.

And one more thing, I don't know if you haven't noticed, but this is not Google, so doubtfully you will get an answer from them.

:good:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seadra:
Funny you directed your message by saying "we" ... guess it's time for facepalm. Other thing, you linked, no that is not my problem dude. I have already mentioned this in IRC too and got appropriate response. Custom kernal is only solution for this, so I'll be learning that. The one you gave, is related to excessive data usage via location settings which is clearly not my problem.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DecypherT:
He is right by saying we. He meant the people who responded to your thread.

The way you answer to him is not going to motivate people to get you a solution either. Welcome on XDA

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxo60:
When I say "We", I mean the XDA community and the people who responded to your question. No need to check the grammar and syntax of an answer when you want a solution.

It seems that you are kind of "slow learning", so I will say to you why the thread could help you if you would make a proper reading. The image you posted clearly states what the problem is, it is called "msm_hsic_host" wakelock. The most probable thing is that you don't even know what is this, because of the childish and noobish behavior you have.

So, in the thread I gave you, as I said before, I give solution to 2 problems; the first one is related to Google Services battery drain, and the second one is to Android OS battery drain. Anyway the your problem is the second one, and in the first post, you can see something like this:

= = = = = = =

Android System Battery Drain

About Android System battery drains, I have found 2 posts that could help of people who made tests and possibly resolved the issue:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44541018&postcount=5

= = = = = = =

No hard to find, if you at least read the whole post once. So, in case you already read and search many forums and thread, which I doubtfully believe, you can see there are tons of threats regarding this. The answer to most of this wakelocks, is not the kernel, but it is the radio. Kernel doesn't care in most situations when the problem is radio and signal.

I hope you can at least read those two to find that those are your problem. The answer was always there, but again, people is lazy and want magical solutions because "You are busy with your real life for now and you would really like to stop this problem for the time being, till you learn the upper level stuff.".

I never talk about excessive data usage via location settings. Such a thing doesn't exist. I don't know where you read that. One more time, you are showing you don't read nor search anything.

Good someone understand what XDA is about.

Hello

I couldnt find any post or so while looking up interferences with the Galaxy S4 I9505.

It is an international one from Luxembourg's carrier Orange.

My problem is that whenever I am on voice chat on the computer with friends (Skype and Teamspeak) they start complaining about my phone because they start hearing interference noises (or what ever they are called)

I never had this problem with my International Galaxy S2.

I tried turning off kinda all the features but nothing helped, Mobile Data, Gps, Wifi, everything is off but it still happens.

What could cause this?

Is there any solution to this problem?

[MENTION=4323704]hasan4791[/MENTION] , Meaning that it is better to unroot before trying? But what will happen if update when still rooted? Like will softbrick or simply failed to update?

[MENTION=2392539]kimitza[/MENTION] , Mind explaining why can't we unroot from supersu app?
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
If you are rooted,but not unlocked,you can unroot with super su. The answer was for those who do both root ans unlock. Only rooting gives highly chances of certificate security error and it's pretty useless. You can't install cwm(error),you can't remove some of the bloat(error avain).

That's why i always say rooting is only half of the problem.

About ota updates,when i was using stock,rooted and unlocked,i could see the updates,i could install them,but after reboot there was no effect.

Sent from LG E975 pwd by CM 10.2/smart phones,dumb people.
[LG Optimus G (International)] sianghung:
well, im sure there are peoples out there who rooted but not unlocked just to use apps which needed root access (eg. greenify/titanium backup).

good thread anyway but IMHO, it would be better to state it clearly rather than tell people not to do this and that without giving the reason behind it.

for example,

Q: Help, I get “security certificate error”

A: Well, it’s normal since rooting is only half of the problem .You will also need to UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER.This leads to next question

your answer din't actually tell what caused the "security certificate error" and how to solve it, instead, you just tell them to unlock the bootloader.

i would have answer it this way: the "security certificate error" happen because you removed bloatware without unlocking the bootloader which triggers the security check built in by LG, search around in Q&A for "security error".

just my two cents :cool:
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
The security certificate error is caused by some apps which require root. When an app tries to acces a certain location,it conflicts with lg's security measures. Also,removing some system app may have the same effect,meaning the security the security checks by the system,looking for that app you removed. Without unlocking you CAN'T flash custom recovery. Should i continue? My friend,if someone doesn't have the knowledge,well,it should leave the phone untouched. All smartphones require some amount of brains to operate it. To hack/tweak/flash roms it requires even more. When someone asks about these things,they should really know what they are doing. Or at least have the basics. Not to mention they must read,use search function before they start. If they don't do that,well,see all the dumb quetions about problems that can be easily solved with a litle research and documentation.

This guide was not meant for those people,because no matter how many tutorials are there,they will simply ignore it and make things their way.wrong way. Then they start threads to cry their phones are ******* up. I will ignore those people from start. This guide is for those who want to learn something and do the things how it should be done.For the ignorants there is no cure.
