Actually somewhere 3g signals are not available (it happens in india,it's normal) at that time you can't access 3g.Phone default settings are set on "Auto mod(gsm/wcdma)" which means if phone fails to catch 3g signal it will automatically connects to the 2g network,but this setting drain the battery fast.so my opinion is do it manually if you need 3g go to setting and put it on WCDMA,when you don't need 3g put it on GSM.do it manually saves battery. And about you draining problem try to calibrate your battery. Method is,

1) charge your phone to 100% it's very important,then remove the charge and dial *#0228#.

2)Press quick start,accept warning,screen will go of for a moment.now you will see real charge number in your battery.

3)now quite with back button and connect the charger again and wait until you reach 100%

4)again disconnect the charger and dial *#0228#,do the above method(2 amd 3) till you see the calibration to 100%.

If I helped you press thnx![emoji4]

Lockscreen.

Hey guys, I am really curious as to how the lock screen looks like with the music playing in the background also with the latest firmware update. Can anyone take a screen shot and help me see it please? Would be awesome! Thanks in advance. :good:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] chintan.bhaidani:
Hello guys,

Could anyone please suggest me the best ROM+Kernel for my Note3, my battery won't last for more than 10-12 hours maximum.

My screen on time is approx 2-3hours, calls, approx 1.5-2hrs,3g on for around 8-9hrs otherwise it's WiFi.

I have seen guys getting fantastic battery life on their Note3s, but mine is pathetic.

Currently I am on Dr. Ketan's ROM.

Help needed!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shamms:
Nothing to match Dr. Ketan's ROM. Try it out and you will be happy.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] shethsa:
Thx but the *# code you gave doesn't work. It says invalid code
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shamms:
It works perfectly fine.*#0228#
[Galaxy Note 3 General] meetpatel:
It should work.mine working well. And I don't think that it needs root,it should work without problem.it's samsung factory code.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] shethsa:
Ok. I wonder if it's something to do with Nova launcher.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] meetpatel:
As you describe your usage,it's heavy usage. Btw try dr.ketan k13+halaszk v20 beta 2 kernel. It's great combination. On dr ketan aroma install tick on deep sleep and battery save.use onedemand governor,reduce both core voltage by 50mv in synapse setting.

---------- Post added at 04:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 PM ----------

I am also using nova launcher. Make sure you are using stock dialer.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dhruva7:

[Galaxy Note 3 General] chintan.bhaidani:

Hi again, this calibration does seemed to have helped somewhat. Do you typically do it just once or every time you charge?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] meetpatel:
Do it only once.Don't need to do it every time. Just remember when you do this calibration don't charge your battery till it goes to 1%.

1)calibrate battery

2)wait till it goes to 1%

3)again normal charge to 100% This time no need for calibration.

This new update has screwed up my phone, I've got a note 3 manufactured in July 14 with kitkat 4.4.2 out of the box, I've installed the update and I regret doing so the phone is heating up while performing simple tasks, every time I reboot the phone I get an error message com.services.google.location has unfortunately stopped!

[Galaxy Note 3 General] AeonXS:
Here are some stats,

When i bought the phone i used to lose 10% battery for 75 mins of video watching. Then after kitkat update it got lowered to 55 mins. The update before this one gave 45 mins & after performing the new OTA update yesterday i lost 11% for 34 mins. of video watching.

Samsung i don't want your note 4 so just kindly fix your sh!t with the Exynos note 3.

Anyone here using Xiaomi Piston v2/2.1 headset with Note 3? Wanted to know if all the buttons work.. Especially how to skip the tracks when playing music.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] anilkumarpt12:
I am using.. U can’t skip trackers while playing music, but u can increase/decrease volume with the buttons. :silly:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Harsha Raj:
Can you please try double/triple tap the center button and see if that will skip the tracks when playing the music? Also with both stock and 3rd pary music players?

The Piston headset is currently on sale for 700 in flipkart as part of Billion sale day offer. So if everything is working, would like to place the order by the day end.

Hi guys decided to root phone after expiry of my warranty..Just interested in root access with stock rom Please advise if root access is possible by cf auto root method on 4.4.2.. Or any other method is there
[Galaxy Note 3 General] deohrishikesh7:
Dr. Ketan any help...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dr.ketan:
Yeah you can use cf Auto root.

But My preferred way is flash cwm recovery and then flash supersu zip from Chainfire.

This way you will have option to flash some utility /mods /fix if you wish.

Also with cwm you can preserve Int SD data while wiping from recovery.

Curious !

I have been browsing through some users who have posted their battery stats under normal usage without any battery saver app or anything , Just basic stuff such as Browsing , IM's , Social Media & Games for Sometime where they managed to get an entire day or atleast 4-5 hrs of screen on time. I have been getting only 2hrs of screenon time or at the max 2hr 30mins under normal usage ,Also the 2hrs 30mins of screenontime and total duration would be 6-8hrs (not even heavy apps or games) very minimal(Even GPS is Off in some situations); i have tried calibrating the battery and everything. Just curious to know is ti the update which has ruined the battery because of Exynos or the Android update has some issues with processors and all. Also i have seen such stats on the Snapdragon version where people are getting decent amount of battery life.

Just wanted to know if Indian version has some issues given the network we have which also plays a role in battery life when switching networks and when roaming and using Data.

i was trying to install gmail 5.0 and one of the step was to edit build.prop

now phone is unable to start and doesnt boot up after boot animation...

i edited it using root explorer and it created backup of build.prop

i am on stock root and recovery . i have limited internet access and will be unable to download large files. ( i am currently in gulf area working on ship)

I tried using adb to pull build prop.bak and to push again but i am getting error in adb too.

please suggest ways to recover phone without wiping data.. or any other way to recover phone...

if possible mail me deohrishikesh7@gmail.com

[Galaxy Note 3 General] dr.ketan:
Limitation is your stock recovery. If you want to correct without downloading big file then only option I can see is (truly speaking I don't know what is benefit of stock recovery on rooted device)

-Flash custom recovery

-Flash Aroma file manager

after that you can open file manager from recvery and will able to make changes.

could you please post download links or mail them to me.... along with procedure to flash...

''According to information from SamMobile, Samsung won’t be rolling out Android 4.4.4 KitKat updates to the international versions of the Galaxy S5, Galaxy S4 or Galaxy Note 3. This isn’t too surprising given what we’ve heard about the Android 5.0 Lollipop release though it means that many Galaxy users will stay on Android 4.4.2 in the build up to Android 5.0.''

What you want is entirely up to you. I don't even count the Exynos versions as anything, just for the sake of development. I don't care if technically Exynos is a better chip or not.

Hi all. i want to buy note 3 however confused between note 3 or neo..

as of now note 3 is about 37k and neo is 24 k...considering so many issues listed here regarding exonys(and absence of 4k video recording) should i save money and go in for neo

how is the screen resolution differnce between (fhd vs hd) i mean is it noticeable? that factor is no.1 for me in deciding

secondly is the s pen functinality similar in bot models bcause i want note for that purpose only and hence not going in for alpha or s5

third is neo a 32 gb model?

fast response please as going to buy tomorrow morning

also which color black, jet black(whts the diff btw:confused:) or white
