Camera lens cover

what about the camera lens cover? do you think its easily scratched as its slightly protruding from the back cover? this is similar to the HTC one X+ camera lens which is also sticking at the back. my friend used to have that and after a few months the camera lens has so many scratches.

what do you think of the note 3 lens guys?

note that i have note 2 and lens cover is great.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Techngro:
The combination of your name and that response earned you a thanks. :)

The spice must flow...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
Laying completely flat on its back on a table, the upper back of the phone rests on the lower part of the bulge at the back (the part below the flash light is the part that hits the table). The camera lens does not touch the ground, it's floating in the air.

I hope that makes some sense. Of course it would have been better if they made it flat with the back cover, but I think they wanted a compromise between a thin phone, and a larger lens.

OT updated with new info:

Unfortunately, updating the Youtube app to the new version seems to break the functionality of the Scrapbooker feature that enables you to save Youtube videos in your Scrapbook.

You'll have to go to Youtube's application info and click "Uninstall updates" to revert back to the Youtube's old version if you want it to work.

It's one of the most interesting features for me when it comes to Scrapbook, so I hope they make it compatible with the new Youtube soon.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
It usually resides near or below the camera (above samsung logo), where processor is located I guess. Didn't check temps yet.

Original topic updated with USB 3.0 Vs. USB 2.0 transfer durations.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] bibiner:
One question. Is note 3 easily fit your pocket without the need to put it in a bag or hold it?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
Yes. It is thinner and lighter than note 2 while maintaining similar dimensions so in that sense it's more pocketable than note 2.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
ok cool check temps if you get a chance please thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
While the phone is Idle, the temp is 27C.

While using the phone, the temp is between 30-35C.

Other things to note: While the phone is idle, only CPU1 is running at 300MHz, CPU2,3,4 show a status of "offline"

While doing simple tasks such as scrolling homescreens, CPU2 starts to kick in while CPU3,4 are "offline"

While doing heavy tasks (such as running CPU quadrant benchmark), all CPUs are working at 2.3GHz
[Galaxy Note 3 General] azhurvadal:
Are the new Multi window features such as Drag & Drop or running same apps in 2 windows work with 3rd party app?

Please try it with apps that support multi windows natively such as Whatsapp or Polaris office
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
Hmmm.. it's kinda tricky. Whatsapp seems to only support drag&drop of text.

Whatsapp is supported in both Multiwindow and Pen Window features, you can drag&drop

text

from other Apps (such as message app or Youtube comments) to Whatsapp and visa versa.

However, drag&drop doesn't work from gallary to Whatsapp (Whatsapp doesn't support drag&drop of images), and you can't run two instances of Whatsapps at the same time.

Also worth mentioning is that the official apps of Facebook and Twitter are supported in Multiwindow, as well as Moon+ Reader Pro (which is my favorite ebook reader). I'm sure there are others as well, we just have to find them out.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] bibiner:
So in your daily life, it able to fit in pocket? Another question is I know this model is 32 GB but how many space are available for use? Cause galaxy s4 16gb give 8-9 GB to use.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] stanley08:
I think its 23GB+ for Exynos one and 24GB+ on Snapdragon one. :)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] bibiner:
Waiting for MohJee to reply, just to make sure.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
I believe it was 24.5- 25GB available for Use out of the box. Though my phone is unbranded and unlocked so other people's experience might differ slightly ( some operators add bloatware which decreases storage available out of the box )

Move to SD is enabled in this device, so you don't have to worry about running out of storage especially if you have an sd card
[Galaxy Note 3 General] bibiner:
Can you check it in setting.....storage tq.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
Here you go
[Galaxy Note 3 General] spoloh:
What can you say about trottling? Is it give you any trouble?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] bibiner:
About 26 GB use able space. Nice. Thx!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
The software is not perfect. There seems to be a glitch where the phone would start only utilizing CPU1,CPU2 and CPU3&4 would remain "offline" no matter what you throw on the phone. This happened only two times on my phone and was fixed with a simple reboot on both occasions.

To put things into perspective, my Quadrant score on this phone is around ~22,000. When the glitch was triggered, Quadrant score was ~13,400 (which is still higher than the second highest score that belong to HTC One)

I can't replicate the issue because I haven't the faintest clue what triggers it. Not to alarm people, this might only exclusive to the ROM in my phone, as I haven't seen anyone else report it yet, and it seems to be a rare occurrence.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] spoloh:
Thanks!:good:

And what about heating?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] BoneXDA:
Best notifying Samsung about the issue. Is it possible that power saving mode was triggered.?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Goodm7sn:
Hello there, Thank you for this awesome informative thread, I have a couple of questions :

Can this flipboard/blink feed gesture from home button upwards be disabled? Cos I use this type of gesture on my Note 2 for quick multi-tasking with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.matthewma.swipehomebuttonfree (much faster than holding that annoying home button).

And that hold menu key to launch s finder as well can it be changed? , cos here it launches Google now search (Google's the king of search why would I want s finder!!)...

Thx for helping out, much appreciated..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
I'm afraid the answer is a resounding no to both questions :p (you can disable activating My Magazine via the home button, but not via the gesture)

Interesting thing to note is that holding the menu button would open s finder regardless if where you are (even if say you are playing a game and hold the menu button, s finder would pop up). They seem to have integrated it deep into the OS. The thing searches a million things in the phone (see attached screens), even some third party apps that I've installed such as IMDB and solid explorer, as well as give options to search Google, Bing and Yahoo.

I'm sure there will be root workarounds in the future from the devs here to disable both of them though.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
The heating thing subsided after the first two days. Now the only time I notice a bit of warm is if the camera is being used for a while or gaming.

Lowest temperature reached 23C (in an air conditioned room while the phone was in deep sleep for several hours during my sleep)

Highest temperature reached while using the phone indoors is 36C, the average temperature remains 31C, which I would say is pretty normal.

Overall, the processor behavior seems to be very efficient, with 70% of time running at only one core with 300MHz (which is when the phone is idle and not being used).

No, I never enable power saving mode. So far, I haven't been able to replicate the issue for a third time. I will keep an eye for it and if I know anything more I will update you (but I hope it was a freakish occurance and never peeks its head again.)

BTW if anyone is interested in which app I'm using to measure these stuff, it's System Monitor from the Google App Store
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Goodm7sn:
I got my Note a week ago and had enough time to tinker it a bit.

So regarding disabling that gesture flipboard feed, i found out that it only works when Touchwiz launcher is the default in use, so using a 3rd party launcher will disable that gesture.

Also as I mentioned a few posts earlier, I use swipe home button app for quick multi-tasking gesture upwards the home button, somehow this app overrides the flipboard gesture even if Touchwiz is the default launcher..

Regarding s finder, unfortunately this cannot be disabled, but I noticed that when I hold on the menu key, I get Google search and then immediately after I get s finder (like 2 apps opening with 1 sec interval), so I managed now to get Google now search every time I hold the menu key, the trick is u have to hold it for now more than 1 second.. Try it ;)

Hope my feedback helps..

Cheers

I notice Quick Glance activates when I not hovering over the phone. Only just now, the phone is next to me on a chair and quick glance popped up. Perhaps its the sunlight from the blinds doing this?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] skally:
A couple of issues

I have a found a couple of niggles. Nothing major and both could be fixed:

1. Power on with home button. I keep finding the screen on because the front button is so easy to press, especially when its in my pocket. I found the (needs root) fix in another forum (GS3, i think). I still think it should be user configurable without root.

2. I set handsfree mode to trigger when it connects to my car bluetooth, which it does great. Problem is that S-Voice expects a command immediately and turns the screen on even if the phone is in my pocket. I would prefer it if it sat quietly waiting for "hi galaxy" and never turned the screen on unless the voice command required it.

</nitpick>

My Temperatures are low

When doing nothing its really cold

When watching Blue Ray movies / HD Youtube for a few hours its still really cold to the touch (every area)

But when I game it gets warm. Not as hot as my previous phones though (S3 etc)
[HTC Wildfire S] M4ci3ju:
Quick introduction. For experience and training purposes I started buying broken phones (LCD, digitizers) and try to repair them. I bought HTC Wildfire S with just cracked touch screen. Bought parts and replaced. When assembling phone back the screen did not work on the whole area, what I mean it was working like partially, only vertical left hand side was working. Like writing text message, R works, then E and T doesn't.

Tried to disconnect the digitizer connector, maybe it was not touching properly, couple times. But that didn't work. It was just working in different places than before. Found here a thread about a problem for different digitizer versions.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1942259

But the thing is I have no idea how to approach anything that these people suggest. I don't know how to replace software, reinstall it or whatever involves soft. I would like to learn too.

If you have any ideas or suggestions please share with me, if not I will just sell the phone back as not working. Thanks

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Modder_J:
Hey All.

For some unknown reason the standard phone app that comes with my XDA2 doesnt want to close.

At first I thought O2 just wanted to charge my boss money for more calls, but not so sure now.

The phone app works fine, nothing wrong with it ... BUT ... It just wont close.

I've got Wisbar installed, and using its taskmanager like feature ... the phone still wont close.

I can minimize the app, but not close it completely.

The only way I can close it, is to soft-rest the device.

Any ideas as to what it could be ?

BTW - It hasnt always had this problem, just recently.

Also, a few of my collegues are having similar problems. We dont all have the same software installed either.
[HTC Sensation] domukas00:
Hello, I have bought rooted htc sensation and am very upset with it's charging time, it takes about one hour to charge 10% of battery. Example today I started charging it at 7:05 when it had 49%of battery. Now it's 11:06 and battery shows 88%. I know it's not normal. Is there any way how to fix it, or maybe test my phone somehow? Should new battery solve this problem?
[HTC Sensation] astar26:
Try deleting battery stats in recovery, this can lead to misreading. Also, usually the battery is higher than the percentage shown, just reboot your phone and you'll see how much battery is left (one time it showed me 2% when I actually had 45%, but that's because I put my phone in a -20C freezer).
[HTC Sensation] domukas00:
Can I use any application for deleting battery stats (this phone is rooted)?
[HTC Sensation] astar26:
Try the 'battery calibration' app on the play store, I believe it can do this. But keep in mind that the battery an lose it's calibration with time, and even if uncalibrated, it will last about the same (although the OS starts saving at 30%).
[HTC Sensation] domukas00:
Battery calibration didn't helped. But I noticed strange thing:

My friend also has htc sensation and his battery fully charges in 4hours. I exchanged my battery with him and charging time is same! He fully charged my battery from 14% to 100% 4 hours and my phone still charges very slow. I started charge his battery from 44%, at first it was charging very fast, but after 4hours it charged only to 88%. I rebooted phone and then it showed 100%. Where is the problem? My phones charges very slow with any battery. I don't want to reboot it every time to show 100%
[HTC Sensation] Harbir:
Change ur charger ( wire and adapter ) as I also faced that on by note 2(charger only 10% in 1 h) and when I changed by charger it started to charge like hell , then I realised that it was the charger fault(even if it original charger) and not phone ;)
[HTC Sensation] bobrda:
What ROM do you have? Is it stock or other? I need about 2:30 to be filled in A1-7 4.3 ROM ... Have you tried the USB and what are the results? Maybe make some other rom, so if you do not work fast carge, change the charger and battery
[HTC Sensation] domukas00:
I have brother's samsung charger and 2htc wires+adapters and there is no difference between them while charging. I have 4.0.3 android rom and it's rooted (has supersu app)
[HTC Sensation] Harbir:
Bro go to recovery and change from there see if it chargers well there (this is to see that is it a ROM problem ) say in recovery while charging

Maybe there is no recovery, so can not check ...

I got the same "problem" but only with custom roms, stock rom doesnt have this problem for me.

But after a reboot the battery shows its actual percentage.
[HTC Sensation] domukas00:
Okay, i have downloaded 4EXT recovery, now my battery is full, so i will try to check it in recovery tomorrow
[HTC Sensation] domukas00:
Today I turned 4EXT recovery when my battery had 60% at 4:21PM. After 2hours at 6:31PM it showed 82%, i thought that it's may be charging slow because screen is always turned on in 4EXT recovery, but still rebooted it. After reboot it showed 100%...
[HTC Sensation] bobrda:
and I added about 10% when I reset the phone .. Try to get into recovery and wipe the Battery status.

Here they say that it takes about 2-3 charge that showed the true condition of the battery
[HTC Sensation] domukas00:
It didn't helped. Today I got other HTC sensation phone, and it has same problem!!! After being charged from 60 to 72% in 1 hour I rebooted it and it showed 98%!! WTF!!! How it can happen?! At the moment I have 2 HTC sensation and they two have same problem! I can't believe it!!!! Never had similar problems with other phones...
[HTC Sensation] bobrda:
In the end you still have a fully charged battery, it just do not show well while charging?

I read somewhere in albinomena tread to show that when the phone is fully charged, you need to leave for an hour on the charger.

I do not know this dayes my anker is really acting up strange, I can not get over 3h screen on time

Try to change the rom, mabey
[HTC Sensation] Far_SighT:
Wiping battery stats won't help you.

Put your phone to charge overnight, discharge it completely. Do this for a few days.

Do not wipe battery stats, or you'll have to go all over again.

[HTC Desire C] beanaroo:
I've been using this ROM for a few days now. Some feedback:

Pros:

Faster boot times than plain CM10

Interface seems smoother

I really love the DPI/scale! Applications look and feel so much nicer on the device's small screen.

ROM is minimal, no unwanted software. Just the basics.

Cons:

Audio playback stuttering is severe regardless of player, kernel or CPU tweaks. (Music lovers be warned)

USB Tethering is not working. (Looks like entire USB module/driver crashes when enabling)
[HTC Desire C] LaputaCake:
To fix music stuttering go to performance and change kernel to smartassv2 and sub tethering probably needs 3rd party app
[HTC Desire C] atomomega:
I'm downloading and will flash today. But, I see there's a USB bug, can you please tell me what it is? I mean, what will not work? Thanks :)
[HTC Desire C] LaputaCake:
I thinks it works
[HTC Desire C] atomomega:
Nice ROM indeed. Thank you for the port Mark.

Hey, just one thing, you think you can remove the torch app since it's of no use with our device? And also, I've had some problems installing a few apps due to the DPI I think.

Other than that it's very smooth and slick. Great job! :beer:

EDIT: Well, it certainly doesn't appear to be a DPI-related issue, I've been messing with build.prop but I can't get Tasker to install via Play Store... it is important for me because I use it to optimize battery and data usage... :(

[HTC Desire C] atomomega:
Ok so I flashed gapps from Tantrum's pack, didn't work. Then I flashed gapps from Goo.im and still nothing. Strangely, I restored a nandroid I made before flashing Pure Performances and that changed things a bit. Still not working for me though... Play Store now lets me choose install but I get 'Shared lib missing' and the installation fails. I only have 3 apps with this problem: Tasker, Google+ and QR Droid... :confused:
[HTC Desire C] atomomega:
OK, if somebody flashes this ROM and gets the 'Missing shared library' error message when installing apps from Play Store, this is the fix:

NOTE: In order for this fix to work, you must have Google Maps and Google Search apps installed

1) Download 4.1.2 GAPPS from goo.im to your SD card, (actually a GAPPS from other ROM for Desire C will do, but I just prefer the "official" stuff. :D )

2) Using a file explorer with root privileges, unzip the gapps zip (I use ES File Explorer)

3) Inside the ZIP go to system/etc/permissions

4) Extract the file named com.google.android.maps.xml to your SD root directory

5) Exit and go back to your SD root directory

6) Look for a folder named system, open it, you'll find the file you just extracted

7) Copy and paste the file to your system directory /device/system/etc/permissions

8) Assign R/W permissions as follows:

Owner R W -

Group R - -

Other R - -

9) Clear Google Play cache

10) Reboot your phone

11) WIN!!!

You can safely delete the extracted directory in your SD root directory. ;)
