[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquirtingCherry:
Hey guys, just noticed this today. I know the top and bottom holes are for the microphone but then i found another hole on the bottom right, anyone know whats it for?

Talking about the N9005, don't know if the N9000 has the same.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Bottom Right?

Don't suppose you mean the Spen slot..? :confused:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquirtingCherry:
hehe no not that one, its on the right side of the phone all the way to the bottom just above the corner. the hole is a bit bigger than a microphone hole.

prob temp and humidity sensor
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Yes, I see it... I have no idea what it could be. It's not listed on the Consultant Guide or the Manual (http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/c...UM_EU_Jellybean_Eng_Rev.1.0_130910_Screen.pdf )

It is no doubt a sensor, though which remains a mystery.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calinormy:
Temp and humidity sensor. Is the only one.who needs contact with the surrounding air. On the bottom the heat from the process will alter the readings. I'm 100% that i'm right about this.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skally:
What is your source?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calinormy:
Common sense. I do.have S4 with temp.and.humidity sensor and it's a hole more than the two mics. The Note 3 the same, only other placement of the hole. the S4 active does not have the temp and humidity sensor...so no extra hole, just thw two mics.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpill2016:
Do people actually use the humidity sensor a lot?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amdathlonuk:
Yes, to check humidity...... :laugh:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpill2016:
That's my point, how often do you really care what the humidity level is?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad383Max:
I used to drag race and a humidity sensor would have been great to have back then. Helps with calculations for settings.

Well let's just say it's as useful as air gesture and smart screen stuff. But that's samsung for you.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @rbiter:
Isn't humidity and barometer sensor supposed to help with location in google maps? And I would suspect that those might be useful in a crowd sourcing app or whatever for more accurate weather per location if it is available to be used that way which as of now I don't think it is.

This article is an interesting read about how the sensor got incorporated into samsung devices/android.

There is temprature, and humidity ... the humidity makes no sense whatsoever... who cares ??? why would a phone care???

For anyone wondering about the hole, it is the temp/humidity sensor....just open the S Health app, go to Comfort Level (you can select it by touching upper left screen -three horizontal lines) and blow over the hole...:D you'll see the temp/humidity skyrocketing LOL.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nallyvaico:
I after over a month of operation, I bumped onto this hole - never noticed it before! As my phone had fallen slightly, I thought it might be some damage. Then I thought - hey it wouldn't hurt to look it up over the net to be sure. Glad it is some sort of a sensor, not a damage hole LOL :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] budalica:
I care what is that app ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zadigre:
Temperature is useless... It's showing 28C right now... And the real temperature is no more than 22...

So it looks like that this sensor is influenced by my hands even if I don't touch the hole.

Hi!

I posted in some other treads related to my question and havent got any response. So ill make i try here. Im running [ROM][4.3][AOSP][CDMA/GSM][OFFICIAL] PARANOIDANDROID 3.99-RC2.

I did a clean install, i searched forums and on google with no good solution, tried the most.

My problem is that when i try to enter gallery or camera the phone tells me ''no external sd''

I think that this might be an issue on all 4.3 roms, I have the same issue on Carbon 4.3.

hit ThAnKs if I was helpful!!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] atyusha:
thanks. will try to do this as well. will report results later

it's really weird that nobody mentioned this problem on the developer's forum.

here's my problem:

I just flashed android 4.3 ROM on my phone (phone is Infuse 4g, ROM is CM10.2 - 8/30/2013 - Butter)

after I have restored most of my apps w/ data using Titanium Backup, I don't have any storage left (according to notifications and phone storage information - couldn't update apps, and several apps couldn't be restored (restore process stopped at 94%)

when I go to settings > storage, there's message "Storage space is running out", Total space shown for internal storage is 1.28GB, Available is 9.44MB,

however, when I connect to computer it shows that I still have more then 9GB available on the internal storage.

when I was flashing ROM, I had to go back to ICS ROM, (I've lost root access ), then 4.2 Rom, then 4.3. it warned me that it will re-partition my storage, and I may lose any data - I agreed, as I had everything backed up. now I don't really have a storage
[Motorola Droid RAZR] atyusha:
I did it twice - didn't help. total space is 1.28 GB, Available 180 MB (after removing some apps)

---------- Post added at 04:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------

I have wiped cache/dalvic cache as it was suggested before... twice... didn't help at all :(

here is something else that I have noticed while in the CWM Recovery - sdcard0, sdcard1, datadata, system and data are "unmounted"... I have mounted them all, but it didn't make any difference either :( (I'm not sure if it would even make any difference, or these mount/unmount settings are only for CWM Recovery, because on the next boot into CWM everything but cache was unmounted again

any other idea on what can be done to fix it?

Please search the forum once before posting as you'll get a faster solution.

Now tell me how are you trying to flash the rom. Since you are talking about update script, i am assuming its through cwm. So check if the rom you are trying to flash has a proper update script or not. Its in the meta-inf folder under com\google\ folder

Thank you for d reply [MENTION=5130501]Dark Wraith[/MENTION] !

Yes, I'm trying thru cwm. There r two files inside the folder-

2. Updater-script.

Now?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Srinath_Newbie:
Hullo...?

Help..? :(
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Dark Wraith:
It might be that your phone needs an update script not an updater script. If that is the case. you can ask the original dev to create an update script for u,repack it with the rom and send to u or you can do so yourself. However, you have to look for the procedure yourself. You can use dxdia's kitchen to do so if you want or if you want to learn then search through the forums and look for how to create one yourself.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RequiemDK:
Hi everyone,

I wonder if I'm going crazy, but you're supposed to be able to turn off S Pen detection when the S Pen is holstered. However, on the lockscreen this doesn't seem to be properly implemented. What I did was to holster the S Pen with that option turned on supposedly to reduce power consumption, then take my Note 10.1's S Pen and hover it over the lockscreen. I could then clearly see the watercolour effects as if a finger or S Pen were being dragged across the surface. However, the device will not unlock. I have to say though, that my device is a lemon - the screen has blue specks and streaks on dark areas so I'm waiting for Samsung's response to my case. I don't know if these two issues are related, but... is that option to turn off the S Pen detection actually working properly? Could someone else with another wacom stylus please try this and see if the device continues to detect the S Pen at the lockscreen even with that option on?

Cheers

This is the first time for me with an HTC device. So I need a little help.

I am trying to find a way for rooting the phone without loosing any data or configuration. Can somebody help me?

My phone is HTC One X+ running Android 4.2.2 with Sense 5.

In case I need to take claim the warranty of the phone what I would have to do? Is there something I should do before rooting the device, so that I will be able to unroot it?

Thanks a lot in advance!
[HTC One X+] obscurant1st:
Thanks a lot for explaining all these stuffs to me. Really appreciate it. I knew a few of the things already from what you wrote, but I must say a lot of these are completely new info for me! :)

So tl;dr I can't root without unlocking the bootloader! :(

Thats so sad. I wanted to save all the games and stuffs' data so that I won't have to redownload all the games. :((
[HTC One X+] Ghand0ur:
I know its sort of tiring but honestly the payoff is massive, atleast to me. I explored things I didn't know about my phone. I learned information about how the phone is made. These information help you.

Inaddition to having custom ROMs, rooting offers you the benefit of backing up your games which is not available on stock.

Anyway, Best of luck, android is a great world to explore.

I however must give credit to every single one that helped me on that topic, and that's my way of paying them back. To Help others like me who need help :)
[HTC One X+] towelboy:
If you root now, you'll be able to use titanium backup and backup all the data you want! Then you can transfer these game and app datas across any android device in the future!
[HTC One X+] Ghand0ur:
DON'T STEEL MY INFORMATION DSAHGASHNJKGJSKBGJKS GJKBA I ALREADY SAID THAT IN THE LONG LONG LONG LONG POST DJGKBASKGJSAGAS

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] manu1991:
Hi. I have an Xperia Z Ultra and it was running v510 till today. Everything was working fine. Then I updated to v532 and then when the screen turned off automatically, it went into SOD and didnt start. It took me 20 minutes to switch it on. I kept pressing the Power key for 5, 10, 20 seconds. Nothing happened. I pressed volume down + power and heard a vibration but nothing on screen. After trying the power button for the 15th time, it switched on. I checked the Backlight optimization settings and they were off, so I switched it on. Immediately after the next screen off, it again went into SOD, repeat same process

tldr;

Didnt have any SOD before 532, now have one every time. Also, are there key shortcuts to switch the phone on after a SOD because I keep pressing the power key again and again (and continuously) and nothing happens for a long time.

I am on stock, locked bootloader, no root, updated via Sony software, no errors. Didnt have any SODs on any previous versions. I have the non LTE model.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] dralex88:
The reset button is together with the microsim and microsd slot, covered by flap... You need a sharppointing object to press it...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] xene68:
Same problem here, a few weeks after 532 update phone just powered itself off and now takes a couple.of minutes to boot.up. Did you manage to resolve the sod problem at all?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Enable "Optimize Backlight" again. It's a known fact that you'll get SOD's and "fake hang" at boot when you disable it. Enable it again and reboot. It should be much quicker.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silvestro1:
(I'm posting this in the Questions Forum because i have not enough posts to either create a topic in the Development and Hacking Forum or reply to the registry hacks-thread.

But since it's also somehow a question I hope it's ok in here.)

______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Edit October 15th, 2013: With the GDR3-Update you get this feature built-in, so no more need to do this then!

Hi Folks,

while AlvinPhilemon found out a registry tweak to set custom sounds on the Samsung Ativ S (as explained in this post), it is not quite practical, since you can't see the sound in the list with the others, so you can't choose or switch them without always edit the registry.

I found another way to do this, and I think it's a bit more elegant (see attachment to have a look), although it only can change the sms, e-mail or mailbox sounds.

This is what you need:

1. Interop Unlock

2. Registry Editor (use SamWP8 Tools)

3. Full File System Access (use SamWP8 Tools)

4. Your Notification sound (I tried mp3-, wav- and wma-format, all worked)

This is how you do it:

1. On your PC, browse to your Phone\PROGRAMS\CommonFiles\Sounds\ and paste your new sound there.

2. To make it visible in your sounds selection list inside the Settings-app you have to create a registry entry: Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\OEM\Sounds\Notifications\ (This is the Samsung specific location for notifications; I tried the whole thing with the standard Microsoft sound location HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Sounds\Notifications\ but it didn't work). In this registry location you can see a list of the the existing Samsung notification sounds ("Knock.wma", "On time.wma" and "Whistle.wma") and how their name is displayed in the Settings-app ("Knock", "On time" and "Whistle").

3. Create a new key and set the Value to the name of your soundfile (for example "Silvestro.mp3"), the Type to String and the Data to the name how you want it to be displayed. There might be an error notification after writing, but just read the key to check you wrote it correctly.

4. Done! Go to the Settings-app and choose the newly created sound as message, mailbox, or e-mail-sound!

What do you think of this solution? Of course it would be nice to pack this feature in an app that first lets you choose a soundfile from the Public or SD-Folder, then copies it, then creates a registry entry and then also is able to delete those things an put everything back to normal, but since I'm just starting with C# there's no way I can do this myself. Anybody interested in trying?

Thanks for your comments!
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Very nice work, and good tutorial. It would, indeed, be good to get an app to automate this. You would need ID_CAP_SOUND_CONTROL (may require full capability unlock); this capability should enable both the requisite file system and registry access.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinister1:

Nice tuturial, thanks.

I am a satisfied galaxy s4 owner. Before this phone i had the htc 8x. I liked wp8 a lot, but unfortunally some essential apps (for me) where still missing. Beside the very good os, i also like all the default sounds. Thats where my question comes in.

I'm looking for the complete set of Windows phone 8 notification sounds. Is it possible to copy them from a wp8 phone and post them here? I would like to have the windows sounds in my galaxy.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silvestro1:
Great news!

With the GDR3-update comes the feature to set custom sounds for Messages/Mailbox/Reminder!

So this is no longer needed...
