Okay so just to be clear, cause I always jump to conclusions and get confused x.x, I can run a Linux Virtual Machine on my Windows 7 laptop? And I'll stop by staples later today and get a new micro sd.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DJ_SpaRky:
You can run a VM or boot to a "Live" version that has a Persistence mode on a USB Stick. UNETBootin or LiLi (LinuxLive USB) both work great for this making the Live USB images of major distros, such as Ubuntu (and variants).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] KAsp3rd:
Yes that is correct. If you watch the video in my thread I did the linux portion in a VM. There apparently are windows tools out there for properly managing .img files however I've not used any so therefore cannot recommend any.

Ok, I guess I might be jumping in between conversations but I guess I need help with almost the same thing that happened with OP.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2467692

I didn't try to root it yet, though i would love to, and I am new to a few jargon here.

Please help me out guys.. [MENTION=3505796]KAsp3rd[/MENTION]: you mentioned you had a forum to debrick or unbrick the phone. I am not sure whether I bricked my phone or not, but I would like to give it a read at least. Can you please mention the link here. Thanks.

Also, I trying the recovery mode (Home+volume up+power) but it doesn't come up. It just vibrates and the screen remains blank.

I try the download mode (Home+volume down+power) and it shows up with the option to continue to cancel.

I think I will add this info in my original post as well.

Please see if any of you could help me with it.

Thanks.

Quick bit of advice....only post in one thread. When people repost their issue in multiple threads it makes it difficult to keep up with what's been done, what's been asked/answered, etc.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] wildpig1234:
Call me old school but i got several midi files i enjoy. On my old touch pro2, they play fine but on the S4 default music player they don't sound anywhere as good. First the sound is clipped and a lot of time distorted. Also the instrument sounds are off compared to the media player that comes with WM6.5. Anyone got a solution/suggestion? thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Darnell0216:
I don't know of many players on mobile or desktop that bother to properly support midi anymore. At this point I just listen to them through WMP. They're mostly old NES/PS1 theme songs that I won't let go of. Figured one of these days I should try to find the midis recorded as mp3's to save myself the headache.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] wildpig1234:
Converting them to mp3 is a solution I guess. At least that will keep the sound consistent instead of depending on the particular device/player to interpret the midi. Take more space but I guess will b ok w a 64 gb microsdxc.. just wish midi support better
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whittikins:
I'm currently using a DPI of 400 globally and changing many apps to the stock 480 (with Xposed Framework and App Settings module). However, the only reason I really want 400 or lower DPI is for a smaller status bar and notification drawer.

Does anyone know which apps I need to set to a lower DPI to only effect the UI? I like apps at 480, but it's tedious to go change every app to 480 instead of using a global 480 and only modifying the UI. Thanks!

Ok i have an app called Bradford that wont work if your phone is rooted. Well suggestions was to use Voodoo OTA, unfortunately the app doesn't work for 4.3 android (Galaxy Nexus Custom Rom). Other apps have bad reviews cause A) it deletes the root and have to redo it. B) Bricks your phone C) causes root to deny access all the time. (..cough cough....

[HTC One Mini] calbo22:
hi I just got my htc one mini is ther away I can clear the ram, like u can do on tha galaxy

and can I acces any file are folder liki music picture/ringtone.

where is apl;ication manager,

thanks for any help,
[HTC One Mini] :
Please use proper grammar/spelling.

You can close apps by double tapping the home button and sliding up on an application. There isn't a built-in feature to clear the memory as far as I know, you'd need a task manager app for that, but I wouldn't suggest that. Just close whatever apps you don't want running by double tapping Home and let Android manage the memory.

There isn't a built in file manager, but you can install one from the Market. File Manager, ES File Explorer File Manager, ASTRO File Manager, and Root Explorer are all good. Personally I use Root Explorer which is $3.99, but a lot of people like ES File Explorer which is free.

You can get to the application manager by going to Settings then Apps, it's the 7th option from the bottom.

Hey guys, just got my note 3 few days ago.

The device is getting warm in the back after some light usage (browsing, some casual games, etc). no heavy gaming.

I wouldn't say hot, but its noticeably warm when you hold it. Specially in the camera area.

Is it normal? anyone else have this issue? :confused:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmaq:
Yes it is normal.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H0rn:
Happens with most phones when you start to use a lot of apps, might not seem like much to the user but it definitely puts some stress on the cpu which is near the top of the phone:)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cumiecumie:
Thanks for the answer.

Just wondering if anyone else have the same issue.

Its quite annoying really,

I had some experience with note 2 and it didn't have any heat issue at all.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kersh:
note 2 was very cool, note 3 is like note 1, heat as fcuk when you use the processor at full speed
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Well, we are talking about a 2.3Ghz Quadcore. (Or a 1.9+1.3Ghz Octa). Run a CPU like that on a laptop and they'd have to stick a large fan and heatsink on top of it just to keep it cool.

On your phone it only has plastic (which is a terrible heatsink), no cooling gel, no air flow and no fan. Of course power like that is going to cause the phone to get hot.

Not to mention if you're holding it, what little heat the plastic dispenses is going to bottle up at your hands.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravefolk:
My n900 exynos (fake) octa doesn't get hot as my friend's 4g n9005 gets. I think it's because it has a bit slower clock speed. I noticed some warm in initial setup, when my google account was transferring back all data and apps at same time, and occasionally while playing Real Racing 3 at maximum graphics setup via RR3 Graphics app.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mechanix619:
Contracts are gone. It's all month-to-month. So they are saying the phone costs $0 to walk out of the store, pending credit check, and they'll bill you $20 per month until the phone is paid in full.

Exactly.. lets say the phone is 700. U walk out zero down. U have to pay off lets day $25 a month.. untill u pay off 700 thats about 28 months.. its perfect for jump users doh. Walk out with a new phone zero down.. only pay 6 months, u paid only $150 off then just return it... then most likely s5 is out

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] polx:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] abalosmusic:
WHole point of being eligable for the jump program brotha.. il dbl check tommorow, but i went today and from my understanding, thats how it works.. ur basically leasing/renting the phone. U can either decide to keep the phone and pay the rest off. Or decide to get a new one. With technologies always upgrading to the yearly. People want the latest and greatest tmo jump and att next provide that. Unfortunately for me ive never had my phones for more than 6 months. Coming from the s3 > note 2 > s4 changed my phone every 6-7 months don't know why. And thats before the jump program.....

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Sistum Id:
Is this web only or also in store deal? On their website, it mentions $0 down web only deal but that flyer seems like it's for in store as well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mingkee:
Unfortunately, it looks like an adjustment of monthly payment. The grand total stays the same.

$29.5*24=$708
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lowandbehold:
That is exactly how it works. Upgrades every 6 months, but you have to return the phone you used. The Jump program also included free insurance which not only covers damage, but also lost and stolen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Nate Rules:
This is really great on the jump! program. If you trade it in at 6 months, they are forgiving $531 dollars owed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] clninja:
The 0 Down promotion is real.

Old pricing

Well qualified credit- 199 down 21/month

Lesser qualified - 350 down 14.70/month

PROMO PRICING

Well qualified- 0 down 29.29/month

Lesser qualified- 360 down 14.29/month

Prepaid plans- full 703 up front

You can upgrade again anytime after 6 months if you have jump, so theoretically after 1 year when note 4 comes out you.will have paid 348 in payments. T-Mobile, upon you trading in your note 3 , will wipe out the remaining 355 that you have left to.pay on your phone ( depending on condition of phone, has to turn on,no broken screen, no water damage etc) and then you can start fresh with new down payment and monthly payments for your note 4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sic_lic1o1:
I don't see any benifit in doing Jump if you're going to keep it for a year. Your math is a little off by the way.

29.29 × 12 months = $351.48

$ 10/month in Jump x 12 = $120

Don't forget you have to pay tax for the device, thats around $55 (depends on your location)

351.48 + 120 + 55 = 526.48 total you paid in a year.

If you traded in your device, you get nothing back. If you paid $704 up front or doing 199 down, You can sell the phone for at least $350.

750-350 = 400 total paid in a year. ( if paid 704 + around $55 tax up front)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] AssassinsLament:
From what I recall of the "Jump" program, you also have to have at least 50% of the cost of the phone paid off.

EDIT:

Ok, I can't find that statement... so cross out what I said above. I probably saw it on Verizon or AT&T's program.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] PhoenixPath:
Nope.

T-Mobile's website -

No mention of a required percentage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rchapoteau:
I got the deal this morning, which yes is not really a deal. Instead of the $21 monthly EIP charge I am paying $29. If you don't have the $199 then I guess this is a good deal, otherwise your still paying it in the long run.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] AcuraCl1:
Is the promotion for instore also, and how long will the promotion last. As I am looking at upgrading this friday. Just trying to decide between the note 3 and s4.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] AssassinsLament:
In-store?

It's only a deal if you're paying with credit... as T-Mobile will finance with 0% apr. And that's better than the credit card apr. But if you're paying out of pocket/bank, then it's not really a deal like you said.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] clninja:
I did not include the 10/month cause that's not only for jump. That includes the 8/month insurance as well.

Either way I'm not saying jump is a good deal. I personally will.never use it because after 1 year if your phone is in good shape you can sell it for 450 easy
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bobbyphoenix:
Just ordered mine. I thought I'd have issues since I'm on a two year contract, but it went through with no issues. No plan change or extension needed, and I already received the processed email from T-Mo. Great deal. Can't beat zero down.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] shook187:
0 down also means a bigger monthly payment.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bobbyphoenix:
True, but for me I'd rather pay $8 more a month instead of paying $199 down at once.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Nate Rules:
I just left the store with 4 note 3s. And I paid 0 down on all of them. There was only one other person so they may not even sell out
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DKYang:
My monthly payments for this phone doesn't start until December, which I thought was weird, but whatever. I switched to postpaid last weekend so that's probably why. I'm most likely going to pay off this phone early within a year. I can do it now, but what's the point if I end up returning it (which won't happen :D).

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] SGBE:
Here is a visual of what the short and long term investment vs. value looks like -

Prepaid Plan

$708 upfront phone purchase, $30/month (unlimited data plus text w/100 voice minutes)

Student/Corporate Plan A

September 2nd, 2013, $0.00 out of pocket promotion, N3 @ $29.50, unlimited voice and text with 2.5GB data + Jump Program ($93.50 total per month). *phone and monthly carrier tax not reflected.

Student/Corporate Plan B

September 2nd, 2013, $0.00 out of pocket promotion, N3 @ $29.50, unlimited voice and text with 2.5GB data + NO Jump Program ($83.50 total per month). *phone and monthly carrier tax not reflected.

Market Value

Forecasted N3 private party sale value over time (based on S3, N2, S4 historical data).

TMO Payoff

Hardware payoff balance to T-Mobile if canceling the account or paying it off.

=======================

Regardless of the option chosen, either

6

or 12 months of ownership appears to be the most cost effective. I chose the A option and will either trade it in when the S5 is released next spring or keep it until the N4 arrives next fall. I love bleeding edge tech that is obsolete before it even arrives. :laugh:

Note 3 0 down

It's really good if you buy the insurance, jump program is just 10 dollars a month for insurance instead of 7.95. After 6 months you can upgrade. I love the idea of leasing a phone. Way better then having to pay the whole thing off. I got my note 3 for zero down at 10:02 this morning when the store opened. It's an awesome phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] KennyMB:
Was planning on switching to T-Mobile for the Note 3 but my credit wasn't good enough for the 0 down. Looks like I'm selling my Note 2 first.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Kawaisa:
I was thinking about doing the jump thing but after calculating the cost of the phone (monthly payment + $10 jump), I'd be paying about $540~ after one year. But the residual value of the phone would make "renting the phone" a worse deal given that I'd probably get more than $200 selling the phone after 1 year.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] XBOHDPuKC:
You also should factor in all the taxes and stupid fees you are paying when on a plan... If you go prepaid and buy the phone outright, the $70/unlimited is just that - $70 bucks (if you refill through, lets say, comfi, or target - even better if you pay with RedCard - getting 5% cashback), saves you anywhere around $100/year.
