[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] technoboi2:
I have tried 3 ROMs.

One did not have a phone app and anyway did not register on the mobile network. The other two showed full bars on the network but said 'failed to register' even though 'registered on network' was reported when I connected to a network following a scan.

So I am assuming that there is no modem?? - though why a ROM should be produced without one I can't imagine.

I looked around for a modem to download. I can't find one. Further, virtually everywhere I look Odin is used to do installations. As I use Linux there is very little information to help me, I might be on the wrong track anyway.

So, my phone is non-operational atm :crying: Can anyone help please?

Check if your imei is still there ! Sometimes after flashing ROM s the imei is gone ! Poof ! No connection

it hurts when I help someone and they say thanks Instead of pressing the button :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] technoboi2:
Thanks for that (pressed the button) but, no, I checked and it is there.

Please read my thread.

General > Sticky roll-up thread > IMEI / EFS - Know this stuff
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] technoboi2:
A bit of a learning curve to put back the stock ROM. The reason why I wanted a new ROM is because of all the trouble I've had since the last Samsung firmware update. Multivarious problems! Of course I should have done a back up but I have flashed ROMs on other phones before and been perfectly OK - oh well, lesson definitely learned!!

Anyway, should the worst come to the worst, which it probably will, and I need to get it fixed, do I send it back to Samsung or is there somewhere local that you know [you are located about 7 miles from me :) ]
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
It depends on the issue really. If the imei and serial are correct, no need to do anything.

Sending to samsung can be a long process so sometimes if your imei has gone, a mobile phone repair shop can fix for say £20. It shouldn't affect warranty.

Where are you?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Xyberz:
Can't seem to find a good answer for this question in the T-Mobile specific section so I'm hoping that someone could help with this. I'd like to test out the fastest yet most stable version rom available for the S4 and compare it to the iPhone 5S and see what scores we can come up with. I've seen a comparison and surprised to find out that even though Apple reports the 5S is only about 35% or so faster than the 5, it still outscores the S4. Not sure how that could be considering how much quicker the S4 is than the iPhone 5.

I'd love to see the true potential of the S4 that doesn't include all the factory carrier crap that gets loaded onto the phones. One great example is how much quicker the Nexus 4 is when bought from Google rather than getting the T-Mobile version.

I'll admit, that Apple does make a smooth working product out of the box but when you've been at it for about 5 years, well you better well damn be! Android has been around for a shorter time yet look at how much they've accomplished and how much more customers they've gained than Apple has. Just love to see how people stand up for a device that's so insanely restrictive and just pure garbage if not modified. I can live with a stock Android S4, but I can't live with a stock iOS iPhone for even 1 day. Without a Jailbreak, it's just a tiny piece of junk.

My goal is to make a video for all the Apple fanboys and girls the true strength of devices like the S4 compared to the iPhone so they can finally shut their mouth. I love being able to use my phone pretty much like a computer. Customizing, downloading anything and everything, viewing any website I want and have flash work, the list goes on and on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spastic909:
Read the rules. No rom comparisons. Rude to the developers. Not to mention its subjective to what 1 person may like and another doesnt
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Xyberz:
I totally understand. That's why I posted what I was looking for and not comparing things like what this rom might have or that one does. Just looking for fastest yet stable so I can get speed scores. Not sure if that qualifies as "comparing". Just my opinion, so please don't flame me but my outcome that I'm looking for is the fastest speed possible but something that won't crash while I'm using it. If you believe that's not a fair request then I'll delete my post so I am within the rules of the site.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Naddict:
These threads get closed for the reasons above, and many others. Users are expected to make this determination on their own, via independent testing and trial and error. Reading and learning from the many developers is also a plus.

"Fastest" is a subjective term and is based on a variety of factors in everyday scenarios.

Hi,

I'm looking to pick-up a Bell Note 2 in the next few days(goodbye Atrix & Gingerbread!), and just wanted some tips from experienced owners.

(ie best cases, kind of official/unofficial support, known hardware defects to look out for, regrets/sastfactions).

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jindelic:
Note 3 in 3 weeks. Just chill. Thats my recommendation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bajanman:
You can grab a GN2 or a Note 3! But keep in mind that if you the Rom flashing type then you'll probably want to GN2. Because development is excellent for this device.. I must say. Lots of great devs working on the beast!:thumbup::D

But for the NOTE3 development might now start right away until the bootloader gets unlocked. Kinda like on the S4 release...

Just my 2¢®

That doesn't mean the bootloader is going to unlocked! So meaning development will be moving slow on that device! Because Sammy was talking about locking down they're bootloader's..

And personally it's not that big of an upgrade from the GN2 imho!!!!:what:

FYI
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Cryingmoose:
It's a quirk of my plan.

Only partially subsided phone, so the Note 2(or S3) are only $75 whereas this years models(HTC One/S4) are going to be over $300.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Cryingmoose:
Any further advice? Case recommendations?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Eun-Hjzjined:
Well, I got my N2 about 8 months ago and couldn't be happier with the device itself or the custom community.

What I do think could be better is the selection of cases and accessories. In planning on getting a seido surface case and holster soon, it's the best way to keep the rig protected and easy to reach at the same time.

But, the note 3 is on the way, and yes, it's most likely going to be half the retail price on contract. That's the big question, get the note 2 while it's cheap or wait and get the note 3 at launch or shortly after.

Either way I think the note 2 is a great device and you really can't beat the Dev community that comes with it. The note 3 has new security and it's still to be seen if it'll be easy to crack it. And beyond a few hardware tweaks, it's not that big of a deal when you can get the note 2 for around a third the price on contract.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bajanman:
This^^^^^^^^^ sums it up very well!

If your a hacker, flasher, techie guy, then go for the GN2. Big development section!!:thumbup:

If you're into latest new technology then grab the GN3...

Just my 2¢®:cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ap27:
Got my GN2 from Bell back in January. Couldn't be happier with it. Here are some things that come to mind:

Some of the features like Multi-window and S-Pen functionality are only available on Samsung-based (Touchwiz) ROM's. Some people don't care for the pen and flash AOSP ROM's like CM10.1, which have been in development for a while now and work quite well. Personally I find myself using the S-Pen and multiwindow a lot, so I stick with Touchwiz ROMs (you can always switch to Nova or another Launcher if you don't like the cartoonish look of Touchwiz).

If you'd like to stick to a Samsung based ROM, check out Miscom's N7105 Ultimate ROM in the Android Development section. He basically takes the Samsung ROM from the international LTE version (which gets updated more frequently) and adds in useful bits like extending the Multiwindow functionality to any app (its restricted to a few Google and Samsung apps on the stock ROM). Gives you a stock feel while being more optimized and feature packed.

I don't know if its been patched, but the LTE GS3 and GN2 models had a simple way to sim-unlock through some dialer-code settings. Multiple claims that it worked just like that. If its still around, it might be worth a shot.

By default, a double-tap of the home button is configured to launch S-Voice. Not only does S-Voice suck, but it also introduces a delay when you tap the home button once to go back to the homescreen. You can disable the double-tap option from S-Voice settings to get rid of the delay.

I'm not aware of any specific hardware defects. Some stock ROMs had glitchy apps but I've been using the modified stock ROM pretty much from the start.

I personally don't use a case, so I can't help you there.

If you plan on using a car charger, make sure you get a quality, high-output one. The Note 2 has a big battery and charging can be very slow on the usual flea-market chargers. I use a Motorola one that I got from Amazon. Its not as fast as the 2A wall-charger that the phone comes with, but its still decent. It can actually charge up the phone even while its being used for navigation/phonecalls etc. Most car chargers can only maintain the current charge level when in use.

If you need more storage, a 64GB microSD card is a good option and works without hassles. Bought one last year for ~$50 on Boxing Day. I listen to a lot of Lossless music (25+ MB per file) so the extra storage helps.

If you feel the need for it, the Smart Dock also works as advertised. HDMI output + three USB ports. I can confirm it detects keyboards, mice, USB flash drives and external hard drives just fine. Can easily playback 1080p video from external drives over HDMI.

Thats all I can think of at the moment :) You can't go wrong with the GN2. I am holding off on the Note 3 upgrade and the only thing I may miss is the higher resolution screen. In terms of performance and everyday use, I'm happy with my GN2.

Any USB wall wart that is 1.5 amps - 2.1 amps (1500 - 2100 mA) @5 volts will work. The more amps the faster it will charge. In a pinch you could use a 1000 mA charger, it will just take longer.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arcsuser:
Alright im confused.. Which is faster mA or A?

And by the way im not asking about the power here but a replacement.

Thanks for the infos though
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dph3055:
1000 Milliamps = 1 Amp

1500 mA = 1.5 A

2100 mA = 2.1 A

Pop Quiz: 5A is how many mA? _____

5000mA is how many A? _____

Some external batteries list output in Amps.

It's not hard to convert between the two.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arcsuser:
I get it..

5000mA

5A
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dph3055:
Congrats, you passed electricity 101.

Keep in mind that batteries can be fickle creatures. Sony delivers the XTZ with a 1500 mA charger. Based on that alone, it's probably best to replace the original charger with another 1500 mA charger. While you can certainly use more than 1500 mA and it will certainly charge faster, in the long run you may end up shortening the battery life. There are only so many charge cycles to be had in any given battery and quick charging can put an extra strain on a battery that wasn't manufactured to suck up power that quickly.

In a pinch, use whatever you have on hand or can find. For everyday charging, its best to default to what the manufacturer recommends.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jequan:
The Apple 12W one works perfectly fine and charges the tablet so much faster!

There is people here saying it is impossible because of battery electronics.

It's quite simple: They're plain wrong.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zach181:
Without doubt the best charger I've used for the money. It keeps up with battery drain on heavy use (Full HD video+Net+ others...at the same time) Stock charger does not. At first glance it does seem expensive but does the job very well.

I sent Sony a link to the Apple website for these as it's much better than the POS charger they give you with their £400 "Flagship" tablet. Well worth the £15 price tag.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dph3055:
Well, yes and no. Watts, Amps and Volts are all different measurements for different things and it can be quite confusing to figure out to the uninitiated. Watts is a mathematical calculation based on Ohm's Law. Watts = Volts x Amps

All USB devices accept a maximum of 5 volts. USB standards cap the max power delivered to a device @ 5 volts. Most standard USB ports deliver 5 volts @1 amp. Newer computers and specially designed charging ports can and do deliver more than 1 A via USB but they all deliver a maximum of 5 volts.

12 watts divided by 5 volts = 2.4A

If you look at your charger you'll see the output amps listed as 2.1A or 2100 mA.

Sony's included charger only delivers 1.5A or 1500mA, so yes it charges slower and when the tablet is under high load, has a hard time keeping the battery at 100%.

The real concern here, is what effect does delivering 2.1A of current to the battery day after day have on the useful life expectancy of that battery? I don't know the answer because I don't know anything about the battery that Sony uses. It's possible, if Sony, used a top quality battery, that charging with 2.1A will have no effect at all and Sony just wanted to save a buck or two by including a weaker charger in the box. On the other hand, Sony may have deliberately used a battery designed to accept 1.5A and included an appropriate charger.

As I said in a post above, apart from the battery overheating while charging (if it wasn't designed to charge @ 2.1A) and a reduced useful life of the battery, there shouldn't be any real problem using a "slightly" more powerful charger - up to a point. Charge with too many amps and the battery will probably explode or at the very least melt, potentially causing a fire if left unattended.

When talking to Sony, the question you need to ask, "Is the battery rated for 2.1A or only 1.5A?"
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jequan:
That i can agree with and it's a risk i am willing to take. There is people who say the 2.1A charger wont affect charging time in a positive way at all. That's what what i refered to when i said it's not true.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dph3055:
Definitely. More current (which is what Amps measure) means faster charge times, as long as what is being charged can accept the current being provided. You should be fine, but what do I know. :) PM me in six months and let me know if your battery still last a reasonable amount of time - then we'll know.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] technaudio:
You're kinda right, but kinda not....

The charging circuitry inside the tablet is what regulates the charging current, not the 'charger', it will have min and max currents (the thing we plug into the wall that we all call a charger, is really just a power supply, there's no charging circuitry inside it.) That's why it doesn't charge from a standard usb port (which is 500mA) so, if it's charging faster with a 2.1A power supply, then it's obviously designed to do so.

Let's say, for example, the tab can accept a charging current of between 700mA-2.5A. Obviously, the charge time will be slower at 700mA than 2.5A, however, if you were to plug in a 5A power supply, the charging circuitry in the tablet will still only draw the 2.5A its designed to. So, don't worry about giving it too much, it's not possible.

Now, I don't know what the min and max charge currents are, but I can tell you that mine will charge (very slowly) from a 700mA LG charger.

And also, the dock for the tablet states an input of 1800mA,

So, we can assume the min is at least 700mA and the max is at least 1800.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dph3055:
technaudio,

That's my age showing. Back before some smart guy invented the wheel, we gave a device power and if we gave too much a fuse would blow. I didn't mean to imply that the charging circuit was contained in the wall plug but at the same time, I failed to appreciate that the Tab was designed to prevent an over current situation.

...now let's see what happens when I give this puppy 15A AC...damn, melted the usb cable...;)
