[Galaxy Note 3 General] Dan37tz:
Hey I'm glad the OP posted it. I'm spending $700+ on this device, I would like to know every software glitch, every hardware imperfection, any flaws major or minor exposed. Just because it's Samsung's top of the line phone doesn't mean it deserves a free pass from scrutiny like it's some paragon of hardware excellence.

I don't get why people get so defensive about a piece of electronic. Ya'll working for Samsung's engineering department or what? :confused:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
Thanks for letting us know, Mike. Hope to see more youtube videos from you about the note3.

Even when you buy a 5000$ laptop, screen bleeding and dead pixels will be there and they are accepted as being an industry standard. The real issue is it doesnt affect in any way how you use or enjoy the device, so why complain. All devices i had, had an XDA thread with hundreds of people that compalined about greens that are too green, or "blobs" for those that had an S3....its ridiculous. Thats how screens are made, they arent perfect
[Galaxy Note 3 General] hagba:
This post brings me back those very unpleasent memories of black clipping which suffered my first Samsung Galaxy Note.(quivering)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] systoxity:
accepted by you maybe... I'd make them eat the laptop if they didn't give me what was advertised.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
and in daily use when are you going to notice this? i had a note 2 for 6 months and didnt have an issue. you guys get too worried and worked up about such little stuff
[Galaxy Note 3 General] lmike6453:
I agree. It's more so awareness rather than complaining about it. To be blindsided with issues post purchase would be worse than knowing walking into it
[Galaxy Note 3 General] polish_pat:
Its not accepted by me, its an industry standard. Do you know what that means? ISO certification of screen allow 3-5 dead pixels and screen bleeding
[Galaxy Note 3 General] BarryH_GEG:
It's not the "what," it's the "how." I'm tired of scintillating thread titles declaring the end of the world as we know it backed up by little evidence or circumstantial opinion as their basis. Your "the N3 lags like the SGS4" thread comes to mind. You started it based on something you saw in an Italian review that turned out to be the opposite of what you posted once it was translated by an Italian XDA member.

I do agree with you though. I want to know what the issues (and there are bound to be issues) with the N3 are. But I'd like some context (when, where, how many, and how often) to go along with them so I can figure out what they'll mean to me. Spoiler alert: if I have to lock myself in a dark room and adjust settings to levels I'd never normally use to replicate a problem then, for me, it's not a problem. Of course YMMV.

This thread's a good example of how to introduce an issue. OP titled the thread "minor" rather than using "OMG!!!" and "THIS IS AWFUL!!!" and posted documentation to support what he found. That leaves it up to the audience to form their own opinions. And whether it's what OP posted or other issues that have been discussed the friggin' phone isn't even in people's hands yet. So disaster could be on the horizon in a number of areas but it's a bit too early to declare "the sky is falling."

Peace out.

Adapt display

I saw an "adapt display" option in this Note 3 video: http://youtu.be/S2Yr7PvgKQw?t=8m52s

Do you think calibrating the screen with it would solve the problem?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] polish_pat:
adapt display has nothing to do with calibration, just like in the S4, it just changes color saturation

I can't believe u ****s are still buying Samsung phone since u know they have black crush issue.if amoled bothers u so much,why buy Samsung phone.u can go buy HTC of lg.every device have some issues even ur beloved I phones.stop with these stupid threads.if you have to find faults with microscopes then tell everyone to check their phones.only reason I'm posting because of some people want perfect phone keep calling for warranty replacement and when I have real issue with my phone then att gives me hard time replacing it.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] htc9420:
would you mind me quoting/linking your post to my signature?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] systoxity:
Thank god industry standard just means how much they can get away with before enough people feed their laptops back to them. Never take crap laying down. Always complain if you feel like something's not right. How else would things change for the better?

Display of black weird

I have uploaded some pictures here.... In my opinion it is not just a minor problem..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] noteworthy:
It's definitely minor if you compare it with the note1 which I still have.Unfortunately the issue is still there on my note 3 albeit much improved over the note1.It may be a price we have to pay for having the deepest blacks.

Dark scenes are now watchable with only the occasional pixelation.It is especially noticeable where a movie scene fades to black to a different scene.

I think as it currently stands,only the most finicky of users would be annoyed but I hope Samsung will have the issue completely resolved in the next edition of the note.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] heavylift:
God damn it why do I open this threads!

I can only see until number 10, no more numbers are displayed on my screen.

is that really bad ?

god damn it
[Galaxy Note 3 General] noteworthy:
It's not bad at all but you have to make a noise and hopefully Samsung will read this and work on completely fixing the problem in the next note which I plan to upgrade to for it's isocell camera.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] heavylift:
Ok, that result was with dinamic mode.

I have read some were in this thread that the image mode setting only affected color saturation and not this test.

well, that is not quite accurate.

In dinamic mode I can read only to 10

in movie mode and standart mode up to 4-3

in professional photo, clearly 3.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YagFrazier:
Oh god, oh god.

I just bought it yesterday and I'm really scaring of holding it.

It sat on a pillow, in a box [so it would'nt collect dust] the whole night, connected to the charger ofcourse [as I had around 87 Percent at the end of the day I decided to charge it]

This morning I woke up and had to go straight to work, ofcourse I won't bring my lovely new HTC ONE to work, so I left it there and forgot it was charging.

****. ?

Did I harm the battery? it sat there charging for 16 hours. since 0:00 - 16:30.

Please tell me it's alright and doesn't harm anything at all?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianE46:
Lol. You're overreacting. Absolutely nothing will happen unless you do this every day for months in a row. And not even then maybe.

So chill. :)

Thank, and thank all those who replied aswell

Thanks, I started using it more seriously today, battery's down 26% since I unplugged it.

It went through almost constant use (opening instagram, opening settings, just watching the homescreen)

It's been around an hour of this use with the phone on saving mode and airplane mode with WiFi.. is it okay?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ingenious247:
Don't get the interracial comment. I was referring to the fact the phone is not that delicate

Hi all, Im new here i am studying computer science and see myself as a bit of a know a little about everything but i am stumped when it comes to real-life,

I have bought a cheap chinese Android 4.0 TV Box Multimedia Player i'm trying to completely remove android of the device and install linux is this possible was my first question but i have seen other's with linux on them,

The other problem i am having is that i cannot find any usb settings or developer settings these seem to have been removed i have tried the clicking on build number 7 times but no avail, but i did notice when i clicked on android version 5 times it showed me a full screen 8 bit picture of the android.

There is no buttons on the device, there is just 2 OTG usb's & 1 usb for mouse keyboard etc, TF slot, a reset button and HDMI, i tried booting up with reset button held in and nothing just the power light flashes, ??

I am completely stumped on what to try next and what to do?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShaneDiNozzo:
Hi! I have a question. I want to create an AROMA Installer to remove and install apps. My installer has 2 prop files. 1 for the installs (install.prop), and 1 for the removes (remove.prop). But here is the problem. If I don't want to remove apps (I don't select any apps on the remove page), then the remove.prop file will not created by AROMA, and the flashing will crush, cause the remove.prop file not exists. My question is, How can I write a command, to skip the remove method and go to the install method, if the remove.prop file does not exists?

Here is a short example:

if

file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/remove.prop","item.1.1") == "1"

then

ui_print("Remove Email app...");

delete("/system/app/Email.apk");

delete("/system/app/Exchange2.apk");

endif;

if

file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/install.prop","item.1.1") == "1"

then

ui_print("Install Terminal Emulator to /system...");

package_extract_dir("system", "/system");

set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/system/app");

endif;

Thanks!

Upload both your full aroma-config and updater-script and I'll help you rewrite it
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShaneDiNozzo:
Thank you! I am at work now, but I can send a link.

aroma-config

https://db.tt/eYTx01on

updater-script

https://db.tt/Ov62pfZ2

This is my first try. A test. But I'm not a developer. :(

(Sorry for my bad english!)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
ok, i started to rewrite the script but then realized i may not be helping by just writing it

so i figure ill post you an example of one i made a ways back that would have similar functionality to the one your making.

Use it as a template, and i always advise adding #comments when you can and keeping your script very clean and neat (yours is fairly clean) and i know it seems like adding a bunch of #comments just makes it messy but really it will help you see errors and help others reading your scripts

But in regards to your main issue see the bottom of the aroma-config im attaching, particularly the section # writetempfile , readtempfile

Let me know if you get stuck, but if you use just copy and paste your options into this everything should work just fine

Best of luck!

and as a whole your script looks great! and your English is just fine! no need to apologize!

Here is an example to use as template

Here is an unfinished guide that may help
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShaneDiNozzo:
Thank you very much! I will do it at home! I am very happy now! :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
No problem, let me know if you have any issues.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShaneDiNozzo:
I have 2 questions.

An example from your aroma-config:

appendvar("installer_title", iif(prop("splash_screen_choices.prop", "selected.1")=="2", "- Cyanogen Splash ", ""));

What can i do with appendvar and iif? What this line means?

And I received an answer to add a no change (dummy) option at end of list. How can I do this? I don't know what dummy option is.

I think they are silly questions... :confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
If you look toward the beginning of the aroma-config there is a setvar for installer title when the install happens it explains what the user is flashing. The appendvar add the strings to it for all the choices the user picked. Not a huge deal and you can skip all this but it makes it nicer for the user.

If you look at most of the sections you will see a "dummy option" that I made, some say things like leave kernel as is, or don't touch bootanimation. This is helpful to have, besides writing to the .prop it also is less confusing for user as some feel they have to flash something in each category, this let's them choose not to flash.

If you follow the two scripts as a template you should be in good shape. Just let me know if you get stuck and post a copy of your new scripts and I can look them over
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShaneDiNozzo:
Good! Thanks, I understand now! I will show you the script. But here is an intresting thing. I ran your script on my phone. If I don't select any options on the choices page, just press Next, your installer screen finish without errors. But if I run my script without any options, my installer screen says that, the prop files are doesn't exists. I don't know why...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Upload your new script and I'll take a look
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShaneDiNozzo:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ms7gs208zzjz8w3/aroma_script.zip

Maybe the writetmpfile and the readtmpfile are in the wrong place?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
you have them within the if endif

create the .props at the end like in the aroma-config i sent

it should look something like

# writetempfile , readtempfile

# ----------------------------

writetmpfile("kernel.prop", readtmpfile("kernel.prop"));

writetmpfile("install.prop", readtmpfile("install.prop"));

writetmpfile("remove.prop", readtmpfile("remove.prop"));

writetmpfile("menu.prop", readtmpfile("menu.prop"));
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Dav_prime:
I happen to spend a lot of time defending my rooting and modding as practical and making my device more powerful. Yesterday however, I couldn't defend one "because I can" action.

I pulled out an old USB floppy drive, inserted a disk, mounted with stick mount and added a whopping 1.44 mb of storage to my N7. All I wanted to know is whether or not it could be done.

Doing this got me wondering how many others use their device to do something completely pointless for nothing but the amusement/interest of it?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] RKight:
I replaced some of my system UI sounds with sounds from a Star Trek Computer sound board. Now, when I unlock my N7, it greets me with the Enterprise computer saying "command codes verified". When I turn the screen off, it says "standby". Finally, when I place it on my wireless charger, it says "emergency power engaged". Why? Because I can. :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] AHomelessGuy:
I basically did the same thing but with Metal Gear Solid sounds. I use the codec call sound to become my ring tone (on my s2) and the typical metal gear solid sound effects for various tones like the touchscreen sound, and for notifications. Makes my gadgets feel more customize. I might also get the command and conquer "welcome back commander sound byte" when I unlock my tablet.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] isketerol:
Because I can - WOL and Locale

Using the amazing utility Locale and the "WOL Wake on WAN LAN utility", I have my NAS sent a WOL signal every time I come back home. Since I carry my Nexus 7 to and from work,this results in the NAS turning on when I come home at night from work. No need to g into my home office to turn on equipment - I can watch the videos on the NAS right away.

Why - because I can!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ibebyi:
I know so many young kids who have never even seen a floppy disk before (or even heard of one).

I flash things onto my nexus 7 pretty much on a daily basis because I can. The difference in responsiveness, performance, and usability is usually imperceptible but I like pretty colors and aroma installers :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Khendrix:
You mean a save button ;)?

Customizing and doing things thst shouldn't be done or considered not possible is driving me to these kind of things
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] AHomelessGuy:
Get a file explorer application (like Root Explorer)

-Go to system/media/audio

-find the .ogg file you want to change (for example lock.ogg,Effect_tick.ogg,etc)

-replace the sound with your custom sound (make sure to rename it exactly the same way the orinigal was named)

-set permissions to rw-r-r

-reboot

*if you want to change/add custom notification sounds just go up 1 folder and click notification and do the same steps

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] joffrey_growl:

Some suggetions About Launcher to make it more awesome

Hey hi OP i just installed this launcher & what can i say its Damn awesome & Smooth :laugh: but i have some suggestions to make it more better look on HDPI Devices. if you dont mind just take look on suggestions :D

1. Can you make Home Screen 5x4 for HDPI Devices like my Xperia Neo V coz launcher's default Home Screen is maybe 4x4 & when i keep any 4x2 widget on My Home it comes bit middle of screen & waste some upper space of my Home screen. i attached its Sample image below check that. :laugh:

2. Same request as above can you make Launcher's Appdrawer also 5x4 coz lower space of appdrawer also wasting so if you make it 5x4 it will look awesome :laugh:
