[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Purple_Clouded:
Hey just a question, where did you order the C6833? I ordered from atgsm.com but it got backordered and I have to wait until next week despite using FedEx 2 Day Shipping. I paid 729.99 for the phone, a pretty sweet deal I'll say!

And are there any real differences in build quality/internals/speed/etc from the C6833 (INTERNATIONAL 4G LTE) vs. C6806 (US 4G LTE) ?

Thanks man appreciate it!!!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SundayDuffer:
My understanding is..they all should be the same quality built, the only difference is the Lte chip set. I chose the 6833 because it will still works with tmobile. And i travel to Asia and Europe for work often. If you are with att, then dont get the 6833...get 6806 instead. Forget about the 6802.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SpyderTracks:
Rooting just gives you administrator access so you can mod system files or flash custom roms. I came from note 1 also. The issue with note 1 was:

A. Samsung bloat ware and touchwizz was awful. They didn't take into account the notes screen real estate and so out of the box a lot of people wanted to change the dpi to make use of the fantastic screen. Touchwizz didn't support custom dpi's which led most people to adding 3rd party launchers or flash custom roms instead.

B. Roms were slow so people were very attracted by custom roms.

Now this is probably going to cause some flames but Sony's launcher is very minimalistic. They've allowed for screen rotation with the launcher accepting that the phone is a true phablet. They've kept their additions very close to stock android. Personally I think it's a great job.

So, IMHO, custom roms like cm will not improve speed or memory like it does on other models. They'll only really serve to add new features that will likely take ages for Sony to implement if at all. So for now, I'd say there's no need to root.

Right, nuff said, start the bashing :cool:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SundayDuffer:
But it seems that the zu will comes with tons of bloatwares also. Also correct me if im wrong, the external sd card will only be good with music, movies, pics, and datas. The games downloads can only be installed within the internal hd. There are lots of games that requires lots of spaces. You can only assign their location if youre rooted.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SpyderTracks:
Mine only came with a few Sony apps installed which I was able to uninstall so I don't really consider that an issue and certainly not bloatware. They've added hardly anything to the actual os . Stock Google roms are around 150mb in size. Samsung upped this to 850mb... THAT'S bloatware!

Also anyone who installs more than 11gb of apps needs their head checked, but yeah, that is one area where you'll need root access.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SundayDuffer:
Good to know. Thx.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I still use my Note (1) (still waiting for my C6833), and i'm rooted and running CM 10.1. Root was essential to have a couple of years ago, but it's not that big of a deal today if you're happy with the device "out of the box". I'll root my Ultra just to have root. I don't really use that many root apps or features, but the ones i use are very handy.

- Nova Launcher Prime: Doesn't require root, but you'll be able to some additional stuff with it if you got root (hide statusbar etc.)

- Titanium Backup: Backup apps and system apps to the SD-card/Internal storage. Also allows you to delete/freeze system apps.

- Solid Explorer (or any file explorer w/root access): Delete/Move/Copy system files, like manually deleting apps (bloatware), editing the build.prop and so on.

Other than those, i don't really use other root apps. I'm running CM though, so that itself requires root, so i guess i'm permanently in a rooted state. The only reason i'll root the Ultra is to be able to manually delete system files and edit the build.prop, and i guess i'll flash a custom ROM on it down the road, when i'm sick and tired of "the Sony experience".

If you're not an advanced user, or don't want/need to remove system files, then it's not necessary for you to root at all.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] avetny:
If person asking a question about "root or not root"

I'll recommending you to not root.

What about me.... I can't leave normally with out root option. I starting to have a nightmares and I don't eat well....after root all my problems disappear :P
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
I'm a heavy user of apps that require root as I want to be in charge of my device. And yes I will immediately root my Z ultra when I get it on Monday! (yeayy it came in stock this morning)

Adaway- remove ads in every app (even removes youtube commercials)

Cache cleaner NG goes of 5.am

Droidwall -Firewall

Lagfix premium -just a simple TRIM trigger goes off 5:02 am

MyBackup Pro -backup of all my app data, sms and so on

Root explorer -a file manager (I use this every day)

Terminal -the name says it all

Seeder -...i dunno. But it makes my phone as fast as a F1 car :silly:

Dumpster -to save received snapchat videos

Xposed -many tweaks and mods

There's probably more that I'm missing but I use these apps almost/or every day

But as for you. Ask yourself if you need any of this or feel the hunger to experiment... if not then leave the phone as it is.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I forgot to mention that i'm also using AdAway.

But.. i don't understand why you're using "Lagfix"? I know all about fstrim, and it's implemented by default in Android 4.3, but it shouldn't be necessary on a brand new device running a Snapdragon 800. It can be useful on some older hardware, or if your internal storage is of bad quality (read: Nexus 7 2012). The other one is "Seeder", which was debunked by our in-house Elite developer, Entropy. It's all placebo.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
This is the apps I use on my HOX.. I can not say anything about the snapdragon 800 yet as I don't have a device in my hand.

Hello

I am hoping some company

will make a 4000mAh Extended slim battery for the Note 3 :)

wonder who will come out 1st with it

ZeroLemon

Hyperion

Seidio

Anker

Mpj
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] moraymol:
the GN3 itself is bulky already, how come you would get an extended battery for that beast?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] systoxity:
well they made it so thin, i think there's a little leeway for an extended battery. Not sure many would see the value in it but i'd try one out.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mingkee:
You have to consider the factor that the OEM battery has NFC antenna.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] staryoshi:
I think I'm just going to go the external battery pack route. I'll try to find a nice 2.1A model with 5000+mAh :)

4200 Mah Battery for Note 3

http://dx-box.com/4200mah-gold-spare-battery-for-samsung-galaxy-note-3-n9000.html
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] systoxity:
hmm id want a 4200 that actually extended battery life. the description on that one says its about the same
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Neo3D:
When you use a battery to charge another battery, you lose about 50% mah in the process. So, that 5000 mah gets cut down to only 2500 mah which your phone can actually use.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] iankellogg:
You are just pulling numbers out of your ass. I would expect around 80-90% efficiency out of one of those battery packs, which is pretty bad as is.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] killa12222:
I've got a 4 x 18650 cell 2.5A output battery box off eBay and measured only about ~65% efficiency, giving aproximately 6500mah out of 10000mah. Still, really handy to have around.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] iankellogg:
That is really piss poor. Did you measure the efficiency directly or just by charging your battery x times? Because 80% efficiency on the output and 80% efficiency on the charge would about explain that terrible performance.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] killa12222:
I could charge my 2012 Nexus 7 about 1.5 times giving the 65% figure. However I did also measure the capacity strictly using the 5V output and a proper discharger giving only about ~80% efficiency. Stepping up DC isn't the most efficient thing to do.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Impuls3101:
Yea I use this bad boy with my ipad and it will work perfect for the note 3. 10000mAh 5v/3A
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] iankellogg:
DC-DC can be very efficient with a known load and good components. But most of these units are super cheap and usually cheap out on the switchers. Often we get around 95-99% with any of our DC-DC circuits at work.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Neo3D:
80-90% efficiency? Dream on.

Look at the Asus TF700t specs with and without the battery dock. The battery dock charges the tablet's internal battery. Crunch those number and see how efficient it is. Also, that's allowing the typical "exaggerated fudge factor" that most manufacturer's claim when marketing battery run time specs. In real world use, most people don't get those battery run times.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] weirdingway:
IMO bulky implies thick. It's long and wide, which to me is the bigger issue on pocketability. It's thinner than a lot of phones so I don't think a slim battery case is going to make it any worse (unless you wear really tight pants).
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] jamesst20:
Anything out for a good slim batterh? Will I lose NFC?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mvansomeren:
I found one slim 4380ma battery that retains NFC but it is pricy: http://www.ebay.com/itm/221296768859?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] YoungSkeezy:
Thanks alot, you just costs me 61 bucks!!!!:p

This is one thing thats bothered me about the Note 3 since I left my MAXX HD. Hopefully this'll fix my problem

I'll come back with a review of this next week !
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] heavylift:
Keep dreaming bro ! Never in your life ! You just have no experience with external batts.. what have been said is true.. 50% efficiency if it is a great battery.. with a cheap one much worse..
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mvansomeren:
Sorry about that! LOL I look forward to your review. :good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] heavylift:
Oh man.. did you really bought that ? You are really brave man !

that batt is most likely a fake.. most likely don't have nfc.. and if it has .. most likely is a oem batt re label

I wish you the best of lucks thought. . And hope you prove me wrong.

as for this dilema.. extended or external charger.. neither..

extended is just .. to plain stupid .. face it..

external charger.. are just to damn heavy to be of some use or to damn useless to be of some lightness

so.. stock extra battery is the only really option for me.. light.. cheat and pratical
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] K.0.0.L.:
Don't fall for this one. I bought one for my GNOTE II and after a week, the battery life was 50% less than the stock.

I feel like I'm in math class again.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] weirdingway:
get a zero lemon...not an external battery but a replacement for current battery and case to hold the monster...since note 3 is SO thin making it thicker doesn't stop it from going in your pocket and the case doesn't really add much height it's acceptable unless you're have really thin pockets (skinny jeans) or stubby fingers. Zero Lemon case is rugged and 10000mAh (not external battery).
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Neo3D:
how long to charge 10000mAh ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] nighthawk626:
Doesn't really matter how long it takes to charge it because you'd run about 2 days with moderate to heavy use lol. The 9300 I had for my gnote2 lasted me no less that a day and half with 11 hours screen on, playing minecraft, asphalt, need for speed, Facebook and internet. ZeroLemon don't play that **** son
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Nate Rules:
For my Note 2 I bought the Zerolemon and the set of 2 Anker batteries and wall charger. While the Zerolemon is an amazing battery I never really used it. Just once or twice on vacation. The Anker batteries added about 30% power (my guess) so that is all I ever used. So the 2 Anker and 1 oem batteries would keep me going for 5 days anyway so I won't be getting the Zerolemon this time. I'm just waiting for the Anker set to come out.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ElAguila:
So far I have only found 3 slim extended batteries for the N3 that have the nfc chip on them. They are on e-bay. I have note heard of the Deep Stretch brand(4380mah) nor the JQDesign brand(4400mah). The third one is a 3660mah battery from AceSoft. i have used their batteries before. My experience with them was that the battery wasn't quite what they advertised but it was definitely better than stock. With that said, I can't recommend any of the these batteries over the the other. Personally I would go with the AceSoft because of my previous experience. If you have the money to get then I would pick one of the 3 and see if they are as advertised.

Does higher mAh necessary mean longer battery life?

Yes if good quality cells and if it's true mAh rating unlike fakes when peeled it displays actual rating.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] jamesst20:
Thanks for the answer :) I dont want to get a bigger back for a bigger battery :/ otherwise I would replace it because I wish my battery life would be a tiny bit better :/ I have to charge it after school because it wont old the night.

which is the best battery that has the same size ? Hopefully keep NFC but it is not like if I would really use that feature.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
You will be hard pressed to find an OEM sized extended battery that actually come close to their claimed mAh. If you really want an extended battery your gonna have to get a real extended, and bigger, battery.

I personally just go with a second OEM battery. I rarely need, but have it just in case.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] YoungSkeezy:

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] klau1:
you guys do realize it's impossible to make a higher capacity battery within the same volume right?

Battery material and designs have specific power density.

Unless the OEM purposely made the battery below specs, or some 3rd party battery uses a next generation battery design, you are being scammed.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DrawnToLife:
It wouldn't surprise me. Also, it's not impossible to have higher capacity in the same cell volume, but it would take some engineering :P
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] klau1:
It's illogical to suggest there's a possibility of the OEM limiting their own battery capacity.

Given the cut-throat competition in this breakneck advancing smartphone market, NO ONE in the right mind would restrict battery capacity to save a few bucks and shoot themselves in the foot especially when ALL Reviews make

Battery Life comparisons one of their MAIN criteria

in every comparison.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] nerys71:
I just spent half an hour typing out a nice detailed reply just to have xda throw it away. I am not retyping it.

to simplify. yes. assume you will lose 50% with an external battery pack. always try to get double what you "think" you will need.

if you want to charge your note 3 twice 10k mah might do it. 12+ k would be better.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] nakedtime:
Zerolemon will likely be the first to come out with an extended capacity stock sized battery. 4Ah is a little steep though, I'd wager theirs will be closer to 3600mAh.

See GSIV's 3000mAh slim battery.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
Possible maybe, but you certainly wouldn't be adding and additional 1000mAh to a stock sized battery. A few hundred mAh maybe.

Perhaps, an additional 400mAh might be pushing it though.

There is a new startup company, Amprius, is promising a technology that allows 25% more capacity. But we probably won't see that makes it's way to our phones for a bit.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] nakedtime:
Yeah, starting around the middle of 2013, I started seeing all the tech blogs talking about some boss new battery technology thats about 3 years down the pipeline. Current batteries are topping at 250Wh/kg. I'm expecting that to be at least 300Wh/kg by the end of this year, and over 500Wh/kg by the end of 2016.

Go Materials Science Engineers!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] sanjsrik:
I don't know if this is true or not, but it made me laugh so hard, I snorted milk out of my nose.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] dejazz:
Mpj battery already have 4500 mah & apparently it's true mah according to the reviews
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] TechSavvy2:
Ummm.....Yes, they would. Saving lets say even ~$5 on a lower grade battery that still lasts through the day and lasts 90% of the length of higher tech battery is a HUGE savings per device in manufacturing costs. I personally think its illogical for you to not think of that on your own... :p

Its a game of finding that sweet-spot in cost vs performance.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] GloriousGlory:
Even if you somehow managed to get another 100-400mah on the same size battery, there's going to be hardly any battery performance increases. We're talking maybe an extra half hour of screen time at most..

I think we're better off just buying one of the 6400mah batteries and modding an otterbox. I did that today and I'm loving it. You retain a slim feel and get double the battery life. I've got more pictures in the other thread.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Paulita1:
I think ZeroLemon will come out 1st
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
True, I would agree. But the bigger point is even if someone makes a higher capacity stock size battery it will likely only have a few numbered mAh more capacity and wouldn't make a real big difference.

The original post was about a 4000mAh sick sized battery. That won't happen until the startup I mentioned before becomes mainstream and those batteries make it to out phones. Probably not happening in the short term.

So I have used TMOUS rom for ALONG time and recently decided to switch to use Cyanogen being a fan of it form other platforms.

While on the TMOUS rom I had 4g connectivity in my area about 90% of the time with the occasional drop into 3g here and there. It always displayed a 4g image in the top.

When I switched to Cyanogen that pretty much stoped. It always says 3g and is slow as hell. every once in awhile it will say H+ but not for long. MOST of the time it is constantly switching between 3g/4g/edge then shutting off.

Now im not sure if its a rom problem or not, but its making me want to switch back to a TMOUS rom.

Any suggestions would be great!

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be a hardware problem

I have been trolling the net for weeks but have not found a solution yet.

I've posted in threads here but no solution.....

My issues started when I went to CM ROM - I used to have great 4g all the time before I went to custom rom (I was on stock TMO US) .. Now no matter what I do, I am not able to get 4G again.... it's really irritating...

I've tried a bunch of custom ROMS.. I am on 1.13 HBOOT and S-ON .. .. CID = HTC__001 (originally my CID was stock TMO US CID whatever that is but now its not that.. I don't wan to run RUU because I don't have TMO US CID and dont want to brick my phone)

You can set your CID back easily with the All in One ToolKit found here.http://www.hasoon2000.info/getdownload.php?file=One%20S/One_S_All-In-One_Kit_v4.0.rar

That is not the problem, unfortunately. It just doesn't make much sense, whatever the problem is; and especially considering after a full RUU restock. That has always fixed whatever mess I have created in the past.
