[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AHLASSICH:
Got Recovery Back!

Tried KingoRoot. It could not root my device normally. It said "impossible" and that it would install recovery and that it would void my warranty. I said ok. My previous attempts at installing TWRP did that anyway, what do I have to lose? It installed a recovery and got root, but lost it almost immediately. Since I couldn't get root, I used update43.zip by Mr. X to restore my 4.3 MJB firmware back to stock hoping it would fix the counter. It did not fix it but at least I was able to get my stock recovery back. I will now explore other methods to root my SGS3 i747. I ran across a method that will root, get rid of KNOX and bloat but for the life of me, I can not remember who posted it. I will have to research again.

My thanks to Professor25 who pointed me in the right direction. Didn't get root but at least got me my recovery back so I can come back fighting later!

I'm glad you were able to get your stock recovery back sorry that you could not root the phone. I'm glad I was able to help as much as I could, and I hope you find what you need soon.

Installing APKs?

Okay this feels really dumb, but I'm trying to install an .apk

Easy enough, right? I find the apk via a file explorer and click to install. Android prompts me to allow apks to be installed, I allow them. Then the installation starts. Its going well, but suddenly the Note 3 restarts and the apk isn't installed.

I've factory reset it a few times and tried multiple times. I'm running stock. build number JSS15J.N900AUCUBMJ5 and the apk I'm trying to install is from the humble bundle. (particularly Ravensword 2)

For what you are trying to accomplish, I believe you are going to need a third party Lock Screen application in order to set the Screen Timeout delay.

Now my question, is it possible that we could flash a KitKat 4.4.2 ROM to our ATT variants anytime soon using the rooting procedures we have? Or do we need an unlocked bootloader for that?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solarenemy68:
Rooting does nothing towards flashing regardless of the device. To further answer your question, for flashing a ROM and I mean truly flashing you will need to wait for somebody to figure out how to unlock the bootloader. Of course you cam also use SafeStrap which many swear by now and allows you to use custom ROMS in a way that is preserves the kernel and locked bootloader and does not trip KNOX.

lockscreen doesn't work!!

Yes hello. When i try setting up my lockscreen security on my galaxy note 3. It doesn't work. The lock screen security only works when i start up the phone. But when i just lock the phone and unlock it. It's not there only The swipe screen with no security appeares. So anyone can get into my phone. Please help.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solarenemy68:
How long are you waiting between pressing power button to put phone in sleep before you swipe again? The security actually does not activate for about 10 seconds. So if you are just putting to sleep and then waking and swiping it will not ask for security.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReclaimedHalo:
When i lock the phone and then unlock it the lock screen with a pattern security should pop up. But it doesn't. It only comes on when i shutdown the phone then back up.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solarenemy68:
When you lock the phone, you have to wait ten to fifteen seconds before you try to unlock it. They put in a safeguard delay in case you accidentally locked but did not mean to, you can get back in as long as the timeout has not passed. How long have you waited after locking before you tried to unlock. Not counting power cycles.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReclaimedHalo:
I tried what you said and still nothing. I've tried all the lock screen security options such as a pin. Pattern. Ect. And nothing i lock the phone and the phone still unlocks with no security needed to unlock the phone.

Heres one

I got a note3 and still own my note can i somehow use it as an extention to my number? like in the movies when they clone a phone.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solarenemy68:
No, unless both of yours are CDMA based. If it is SIM card based then your phone number is linked to the single SIM card and not the phone. You would have to see if your provider could sell you two SIM cards on the same number and I don't think any of them will do that.

If CDMA based then you just need to get the network so recognize the second phone as the primary phone maybe though spoofing the IEMI which is illegal not for discussion here. Don't know any other way except to have your calls forwarded to the other phone when you want to use it instead.

How many gigs have you used, how many days are left in your cycle?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfiniteNomad:
I called AT&T, and they confirmed I was throttled. .. I don't know how many gigs I went over on my unlimited usage plan. I've flashed a few times, so I don't even have an idea what kinda data I've used/neither do I care. My plan refreshes itself on the 15th, so I'll put up with mediocre speeds till then.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XiphoneUzer:
I understand this is a sarcastic remark, but I specifically wanted to know how many gigs you used before you got throttled?

You called att, they offered you no explanation?

you didn't ask why you were throttled?

they didn't tell you after x amount of data we'll throttle you?

I don't understand, maybe you should call them back, how can they NOT tell you what their limit is, (so you can monitor it next month)? :confused:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfiniteNomad:
Good Sir, I am not being sarcastic in my reply. I am a high data user and expect to be throttled. I believe the throttle limit is 3 gigs? Someone correct me if I'm mistaken. The real question here is, can the APN be edited to allow for faster speeds after throttle?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solarenemy68:
Just log into your AT&T account online and it tells you what your data usage is for this cycle and previous cycles.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XiphoneUzer:
I don't mean sarcastic to us here on the forum, I mean to ATT, (I have unlimited too, so why do we get throttled)?

You say you are a "high data user" how many gigs are typical, and what are you doing to use all that data?

(the reason why I'm asking is because I FINALLY have a phone big enough to use it for something other than a phone, would like to know what I can, and cannot do before I get throttled, and you seem like the perfect person to tell me). I eagerly wait/appreciate your reply. :good:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfiniteNomad:
I use typically 3-6? gigs a month. I drive a big truck over the road, so my N3 is my lifeline/entertainment/everything pretty much. Things that eat your data quickly are: Netflix, downloading ROM's and torrents,social media-Facebook/XDA. If I was home a little more often to use wifi, I wouldn't have to worry about being throttled. Such is life. ...

Samsung Knox

Question - How do you activate Samsung Knox?

One of the reasons that I bought this phone was that I read about Samsung Knox and the ability to have a separate environment on it. I want to get my corporate email on the phone, but in order to do so, I need to give my company device administrator rights so they can wipe the phone if it's ever lost. My understanding was that with Knox installed, I can access my company email through the Knox interface and if they ever needed to wipe me, my personal data would remain intact.

I can find the Knox app in the application manager screen, but have no clue how to launch it.

Any help would be much appreciated.

N + AC 5Ghz wifi

Just got my AT&T note 3 in today and I'm immediately noticing issues with internet connectivity over wireless AC and N.

It's not dropping the network, but every 5 minutes I get a balloon in the notifications drawer saying internet connection unstable, reverting to cellular radio, and the internet connection stop.

I have disabled auto connect and auto switch, but the problem still seems to be persisting.

The network is N+AC on 5Ghz Band. I'm in an apartment complex and everyone else is using 2.4Ghz so I don't broadcast on that frequency.
