[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvtmatter:
I bought a new AT&T factory unlocked G4 Active off eBay. It is running Gingerbread and has not been rooted.I then bought a StraightTalk sim card and everything works fine except two things,

I have used Applications Manager and discovered (I will confess I have learned a lot from this forum AFTER I tried that) it will not allow me to move the useless(????) AT&T apps to the SD card. Is there any way to do that since I don't think I am using them since I have a StraightTalk sim installed? And #2, since I get lousy service on the GSM network (AT&T), is it possible to convert this phone so it runs on VZ?:confused:

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] br0adband:
The Galaxy S4 Active is barely 4 months old and shipped with Android 4.2.2 aka Jellybean - if yours has Gingerbread on it (Android 2.3) something is very wrong. ;)

And GS4A's are not sold unlocked, even from AT&T. You have to buy one that's carrier locked, then contact their support to get the unlock code (as I understand it). Even paying full price for the phone off-contract in an AT&T corporate store means you still end up having to contact their support by phone, providing the necessary info, and they'll provide the unlock code as required - the store personnel just don't do that or even have access to those codes even if you pay full price on the spot for one "unlocked."

As for moving the apps to the microSD card, I don't think that's a possibility with the stock apps; your best bet to get rid of them is with Titanium Backup (the paid version) and freeze 'em all out. I could be wrong on that so someone else can answer it perhaps.

The LTE capability of the GS4A won't work with Verizon's CMDA network that I'm aware of, and obviously Verizon isn't a GSM carrier at all so there goes that idea too.

Are you 100% confident of what you actually bought? :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvtmatter:
Moving AT&T apps to sd card

Yep, I am sure it is unlocked. I bought it advertised as unlocked and activated it on StraightTalk. It came with an AT&T sim card (unused) and I bought a StraightTalk sim card for it and have been using it for about a month. My only "gripe" is one AT&T app (My AT&T) is still in the App menu and I recently downloaded and launched GPS/Mapquest. AT&T came on in the middle of my drive with their AT&T travel app and I could not get back to my original course. Not to be argumentative but is there any way I can tell for sure I am unlocked given the info above? I have 4.2.2. Guess I'll have to give up on deleting the AT&T apps. PS I have disabled all AT&T apps, except the one above, in my phone App Mgr Haven't checked the Mapquest routing since I did that so don't know if that very big problem went away.

Thanks for the help
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] br0adband:
The StraightTalk SIM card will be using AT&T's cellular network so that's why it won't complain with it in there - stick a SIM card from T-Mobile or some other network provider and you'll find out instantly if it's carrier locked or not as soon as you turn it on because it'll ask for the unlock code if it is.

AT&T doesn't sell the GS4A unlocked - it is sold locked to their network and if you pay the full price for the phone (meaning you own it at that point) you will be given a number to call (an AT&T support rep) where you have to provide the IMEI of the phone and the transaction number from the purchase receipt; they will provide you with the carrier unlock code which is entered when you put in SIM card from another carrier and turn on the phone.

While I got mine unlocked using an official AT&T unlock code from an eBay reseller, before I got this one off craigslist I had considered buying it brand new back in June from AT&T at the full retail price so I asked how the carrier unlock would be accomplished and was told by the AT&T corporate store employee here in Las Vegas exactly what I just said above: the boxed phones at the stores are locked to AT&T and must be unlocked with the carrier unlock code.

Since I'm not the original owner I couldn't just call in and ask for it myself so that's why I used a person off eBay and haven't had any issues so far, it was worth the $9 to get it unlocked.

Whoever owned that phone you have may have already unlocked it, but AT&T doesn't sell them that way...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
You bought it off eBay, not directly from AT$T. Many eBay sellers unlock phones to make them easier to sell, but no carrier sells phones already unlocked. And 4.2.2 is definitely not Gingerbread. All S4 Actives came with Jellybean. As was said, you will not get this phone to work on Verizon's 4G network.

Ok so I have my Email app setup and I'm not using the gmail app. I get emails and it vibrates and makes a sound, the notification will show in the notification bar for 1-2 seconds max then will disappear. This happens allot but not all of the time. I have notifications enabled for my 4 accounts, like I said it shows sometimes and not for specific accounts.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dale1976:
Same

I'm having exactly the same problem. I have AT&T and also use several e-mail accounts set up and mine do the same exact thing. Appear for like 2 seconds and then dissappear.. Did you happen to find any way to fix it yet bro?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mr. Gravity:
Happens to me too...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] stu5797:
This is the worst thing about the note 3. Did anyone find a fix? Anywhere to look? Hope to hear from you guys
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] martinezma99:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] circuit.007:
Same problems happens occasionally and I only have one email account set up. It's annoying
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] edwmsjr:
Help Troubleshoot...

I'm having the same problem with my non-gmail accounts. Gmail notifications always work and stay in the notification bar. All of my other email account notifications are not persistent.

I'm rooted and am using Next 3D Launcher. I have installed and removed a couple of notification apps for my lock screen. I was thinking maybe that had caused my problem...until I found this thread.

So, in the interest of troubleshooting and finding a solution, let's start by finding if we all have anything in common. It already sounds like it's happening across carriers (I'm on VZW).

Let's answer the following:

- Rooted or not?

- Stock Launcher or 3rd Party Launcher?

- Any 3rd party notification apps installed/used?

- Only happening on non-gmail accounts?

- Are the affected accounts pop, imap, exchange?

That should help us narrow it down a bit...I hope!

Thanks in Advance!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] martinezma99:
Solution to problem.

1. Unfreeze:

A. My Magazine (2 files)

B. Polaris Office 5

2. Clear data and cache Email app.

3. Reboot

No more issues.

Oops. I spoke too soon. One just went away. Crap
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] martinezma99:
You will get an occasional one or two. I recommend reboot and then it will go away for good.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] stu5797:
I wish this worked but it does not at all :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] martinezma99:
I wonder if you froze another app that is related to the email issue. Good luck and report back.

Un freezing MyMagazine and Polaris Office solved the issue for me and many others. (In another thread)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] stu5797:
I don't have those apps frozen. Wish there was a definite answer. I will try anything

Plus emails disappeared before we had root. Freezing apps was impossible then
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] stu5797:
Anyone else have any ideas to get these notifications from randomly disappearing?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dklimah:
I don't know but its driving me nuts.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] adventure_of_link:
Okay. I've been getting this too.

0. I'm on T-Mobile

1. rooted with this method: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBsgxwTyhrs

2 and 3. AFAIK, Everything is stock except my recovery (which is TWRP).

4. Yep, happening with the e-mail app ONLY (gmail and outlook.com function just fine)

5. I have a POP3 account. If I can get my college e-mail to work again on mobile, that'd be great and I could test that as it's an exchange account.

Oh, as a bonus, if I have one e-mail it sits in my notifications fine. If on the other hand I have two or more then it dissappears (or as soon as I check my notifications list after seeing the icon).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pipergca:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] julz:
Just wondering what everyone's thoughts are on Sony's new battery packs/USB chargers? I've got one of their older smaller 2000mah capacity ones (here) but am looking at getting a larger one to keep in my bag to charge up my various USB devices on the go.

There's a few different capacities available.

7000mah CPF2LS

3500mah CPF1LS

4000mah CPA2LS

Anyone had any experiences with the new charger battery packs? My 2000mah is good but takes ages to recharge for some reason. Also wont fully charge my Z Ultra - I used to use it on my HTC One X. I know there are cheaper alternatives out there but I dont trust a lot of them as I think they falsely claim certain capacities. At least with the Sony ones you'd expect they really do have the advertised capacities.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] AntiLazarus:
I have the one in the picture you posted (7000 mAh). That's my review on the Amazon page you linked to (the long one). So far I haven't had to use it just a whole lot--I've never used its entire capacity in one charge cycle before, as I'm pretty conscientious about keeping my things charged --but it seems to be at least close to the advertised capacity. There's a little light on it that blinks between one and three times to roughly indicate the unit's remaining charge, with three times being "good" charge. I did one time use it to add about 30% to the Z Ultra's battery, and it was still blinking three times, if that means anything. If you want, maybe I'll use it exclusively to charge my stuff for a day or two and let you know how long it lasts.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] julz:
Thanks for the detailed review on Amazon :) Any idea what the recharging time is like on this when it is completely flat? I'm guessing if it is 7000mah then it should be able to charge the Xperia Z Ultra at least twice from flat which is pretty good when travelling or just heavily using it. Also good to hear that it outputs 2.1A for faster charging. I'm pretty sure the standard Sony wall charge only outputs 1.5A which means the battery pack should actually charge the phone much quicker. Most other brand phone wall chargers are typically only 1A - it's generally only if you buy a tablet that you get 1.5A-2A wall chargers.

The Sony battery doesn't come with a wall charger does it?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] AntiLazarus:
No, I don't recall it coming with an AC adapter. I don't think it outputs 2.1 A unless you're charging two things simultaneously, but it charges fairly quickly. If you're not using it, I'd estimate it would charge the Z Ultra from 0 in about 2.5 hours or so. Maybe a little longer.

Hi all,

I am thinking of getting an Arc S as they are priced well atm but worried about the 1gb space.

I read about Link 2 SD letting you install all apps to the memory card after rooting the phone and formatting the SD card in EXT format.

BUT does this work with the factory ICS rom or does it have to be one from here? also whats the max space the new EXT can be?

Thanks

Tom

Yeah but i think it also need a kernel that supports ext, so i guess no stock (and yes unlock bootloader)

I dont know how much space you can set, but im currently using 2 GB and no problem so far.

Is there anyway to turn on the torch / video light next to the camera on the back without loading the camera program?

I have Battery Pack Pro which has a 'Power Light' function but it just sets the main screen to white, whereas the light on the back is MUCH brighter.

The camera program is simple enough but it takes a little while to load and a simple icon would be much quicker I imagine.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bjornbh:
Now on to the region lock madness, kind of. If a NegriElectronics T-Mobile variant is purchased it's supposed to be SIM unlocked already. Lets assume I or someone gets it and it is not. The easy fix for this is to use cellunlocker.net as others have to unlock the device. Does the N3 still have to use a North American SIM first before using another country's SIM? I ask because I've been contemplating on buying the device from Negri but I'm working in Afghanistan and using a local SIM for cellular and data services at my hip on my unlocked N2. When I'm home I stick my ATT SIM in with no problems but I only get HSPA + since I have the Exynos processor GT-N7100, which I have been more than satisfied with, only until I used my wife's S3 from ATT on LTE, then I was blown away. I've also contemplated getting the GT-N9005 International variant but then I would only get HSPA+ just as I do with my N2 now when I'm home. I don't like that US carriers change the interface which leans me towards the N9005 because it won't have any of the carrier bloat ware but the almost downside is that I would get only HSPA+ speeds, which aren't that bad compared to the connectivity I'm used to getting here Afghanistan on the local carrier known as AWCC which is getting EDGE.

Does the N3 still have to use a North American SIM first before using another country's SIM?

Is anyone using the GT-N9005 International on ATT? If so, how are your speeds, any issues?

-Typically it shouldn't be any issues as I've used my N2 with ATT for the last year from time to time by plugging in the APN correctly. Last time I was home I had to get a new SIM card and the APN settings were automatically set through the SIM card so even easier, just plug n play.

Thanks in advance for any assistance. I just want to make sure I get the right device. I'm so anxious to get my hands on this thing!!!! :D
