but i thought as long as u dont use wifi that it doesnt affect batt life.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tony yayo:
Your phone will still scan for wifi networks and even if it's not connecting to it it can still use it to tell the phone your location.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sshafranko:
As a matter of fact ive been going bananas trying to figurw out how to adjust the scan interval on the n3 as the same build.prop fix that worked in 4.1.2 on my n2 does not work here. Its set up as an exponential value and I cant get it to change no matter what I change it to. If anyone knows how please please share....

That is awesome!!! Could you share how you managed to get 10hrs of on screen time. The longest I've gotten so far is a bit past 8hrs.

All you guys are super lucky lol, having an exchange active sync sccount setup with 200+ emails a day coming through, 5 hours is tbe bedt ill ever do
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sshafranko:
I got ten and a half hours of screen on the last charge cycle. Most of that screen time my phone is probably working just as hard as yours or close to it. Im surfing the net, posting on xda, messing around with mods, apps, and I get around 30-40 emails per day. My point is if you took the proper steps to maximize your battery life you should be doing better. Couple hundred emails is a lot so incould be wrong, but im guessing that you have a lot more going on in the backround. If you havent you should really read through the battery saving threads and at the very least do the easy ones like turning all location settings off if yiu dont use gps every day in google settings and in the system settings, turn of notifications and auto update in playstore, advanced wifi settings uncheck both, download Greenify and see whats running in the backround that you dont use and hibernate it. If you go to settings >general>app manager> running, most likely you will see things like watch on, scrapbook, fota, etc. all things that you do not use but are running using resources needlessly, and install Better Battery Stats and in settings> advanced check off root access, fully charge your phone, unplug and let it sit for four hours. Then go into BBS settings and create a dump file and post it in the BBS thread and someone there will help you tremendously to streamline your phone for better battery life. This is a good start and will net good visible results if your really interested. If you've already done these things then disrigard.

Also flash Lean Kernel, and look in that thread and you will find plenty of posts from me and others with battery saving settings. If you havent done these things i would say you will probably add another 2 hrs of screen time to your phone.

Wait what do you mean by even if its not connected it can still tell your location?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jhobert:
Im a noob and want to ask for ur guidance on how u did this. I Don't have any experience rooting. Thanks in advance
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tony yayo:
How do you think it knows your location when GPS is turned off. It is not an exact location though. Say you live in an apartment building and ten people around you have wifi. Even though you don't comnect to them your phone will still get information from them, part of that info is where the wifi is located. If you go to McDonalds it will know you are at McDonald's whether you connect to it or not.

This should explain it better http://www.androidcentral.com/how-hide-your-wifi-googles-location-database
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jiwon0522:
can former N2 owners tell me if N3 lasts longer, and if so, by how much %?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] GallardosEggrollShop:
I am not an owner of the N3, nor do I know exactly how much longer it lasts compared to the N3 in a percentage. However, from what I have gather from perusing these forums is the N3 does have a significantly longer battery life compared to the N2. This of course is stock vs stock.

Sent from my SM-N900T
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ortind200:
thats wat i tread too. of course the n3 has a bigger and better batt life than the n2. i think some guys here complain abt the batt cuz theyre playing with it constantly like a toy, thinking the batt is large enuf to withstand drainage. add to that they wont turn off lte or wifi, enabled notifications, and set brightness high, this will add to their frustration.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] @rbiter:
Lol. Depends which n2 owners you ask. My Intl gt-n7100 has much better battery life than n3. But I didn't have a discrete LTE radio chip in mind like many of the n2 owners in here. That brought their battery life way down. Comparing LTE note2 to LTE note3, the answer is yes and I would say about 25% (~1.5-2h SOT) but usage scenarios can vary.

sent from my sm-9005.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ortind200:
but all u have to do to remedy that situation is to simply turn off lte.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tony yayo:
Anyone else unplug from a full charge in the morning and then lose like 10% the first hour? Its like as soon as I unplug G+ starts throwing wakelocks like crazy, Samsung Link too, google play services start eating battery. Its driving me nuts but I dont know if its worth rooting to fix it. I was hoping to stay stock this time around.

Anyone notice Google Play Music turning itself on all the time? I constantly have to kill it cause its draining battery and I'm not opening it or using it. I notice this on my Note 10.1 also.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sshafranko:
Yea that happened to me too. But I always root and take care of those things. If you dont plan on rooting really not much you can do. When I first bought my phone and sat down on my couch first place I looked was settings> general> appmanager> running. I almost pissed all over myself when I saw how many things were running. Most apps that help out with rogue apps and battery savings require root so your in atough place if you dont wanna root.

At 90% I can go at least 10hrs of standby time and 5hrs use with 1.5hrs screen.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ortind200:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Nymets8305:
Wicked is a custom rom by the dev [MENTION=2200516]evil1art[/MENTION] Awesome rom. I don't use any battery saver or task manager just the stock menu to kill.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ortind200:
but using Wicked as a custom rom must have tripped the knox flag..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Nymets8305:
I believe using any custom rom will trip the knox.

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] alnandr:
Has anybody had issues with their Gear smartwatch not clipping tightly when putting it on?

It's come to the point where mine keeps unclipping itself easily, and no matter what I've tried (from pulling forward the clip so it fits on tighter to adjusting the band), it still comes off very easily.

Maybe somebody has a fix for this issue? Or should I try a watch repair place?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] ivant:
I have the same thing right out of the box. Its driving me f***ing insane. if i shake my wrist it comes undone, if i clench my fish half the time it comes undone. theres clearly something wrong but i cant tell what it is, nothing looks wrong. the only thing iv noticed is the middle metal piece between the bands that gets sandwiched between the bands, its not a perfect curve. viewed side on, at the hinge away from the speaker side the metal piece bends down or flat slightly for a bit then bends upwards in a curve shape. I have no idea if this is normal or not.

I actually have another brand new one in the box sitting right next to me, but i cant compare it because i need to sell that one so it needs to stay sealed :S

Edit: AAAARRRGHH!!!!! i tried making it slightly more uniform and now it doesn't close at all!!! the watch is now totally f***ing useless and I can return to or anythign cause i bought it from someone on gumtree. can I take it to samsung or something?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Mr Ian B:
Take it to a watch repair shop, they know how to handle it. See if the clip that catches when you lock it broke off or bent inwards.

Ian B
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] ivant:
Yeah it's to do with the shape of the centre metal piece, in trying to make it uniform i think i must have shallowed out the curve slightly, and it stopped working entirely. Iv pushed into the curve a bit to make it more curved and its back to how it was initially. I'l play with it a bit more to see if i can get it to behave like it should. either way - TERRIBLE design by samsung.

I'v had a couple of other smartwatches and plenty of other normal watches and never had problem like this. Its because the externals are extremely cheaply made like all samsung products. If your not going to make a classy metal band properly then just stick to a traditional sports watch clasp. It's just like the "fake leather" thats really 100% normal plastic on the white note 3. You arent fooling anyone samsung, your crap is still cheap and tacky.

Why on earth did you buy from a company that you perceive as making cheap and tacky products that doesn't seem very bright
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] ivant:
Just because I find parts of it to be subpar doesn't mean I dont like it as a whole? It sounds like you wouldn't buy a ferrari if it didn't have a cup holder. Its not unreasonable to expect a $300+ watch to have a reliable band is it? I guess I assumed for $300 I would get a watch with a functional band.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
Regular cache as well (forgot to type that in previous post). What recovery are you using? OpenSEMC RC2 comes with TWRP, but I heard that version wasn't very good, so I used GooManager to update it. I was using TWRP v2.6 when flashing the taskswitcher. If you don't know what I'm talking about, download the GooManager app, select flash a ROM and when prompted select to search a suitable recovery and install that. Should be something like twrp-2.6.3.0-nozomi.img.

[HTC EVO 3D] Arbelzapf:
My girlfriend's Evo fell on the floor today. The left side of the Aluminium enclosure bent a fair bit outwards, so itnot connected with the glass on that side anymore. But that's all external damage we could find so far.

The thing is: Mobile network is gone completely. No Signal and the phone cannot connect at all.

Wifi still works. Does anyone here have enough knowledge about the Evo's internals to tell me if there's any hope with repairing the phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] jlmancuso:
Sounds like there is an internal crack on the mainboard from the fall. Anything can be repaired but the fix would require replacing the mainboard or if you have insurace return phone to s-on stock and make a claim. If no insurance then another phone is your best option.
[HTC EVO 3D] Arbelzapf:
Thank you for your reply.

There's no insurance. I got insurance for my own Evo, but that's not the one that fell down, unfortunately :D

We just gave it another try and put my gf's sim card back in and now it works again :eek: . Yesterday, we also had mobile network back, but only for a brief moment.

We'll observe it. Probably there's a loose connection now.

$200-250 will probably be the market value in the USA once the N5 comes out. What other phones with similar specs and popularity are there? The closest competition are used Galaxy S3s (which I think is inferior to the N4).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mike208:
My guess is no, but here's hoping. I am coming from an original Note, which I have had rooted for a while and run a ton of different roms on. I honestly really didn't want to root this note 3, but I am finding the dpi to be a bit unbearable. I liked to run 240dpi on my note, with nova launcher this allowed me to go 7 icons wide and 8 or 9 tall without much of a problem. I have no need for that many icons on my home screen, but it allowed for more widgets, or maybe just a few icons and still being able to see the majority of my background picture.

I already put nova launcher on my note 3, so I am able to get the same icon grid size, but it just looks so tight and the icons are huge.

This is also a problem for texting. On the note(using stock android messaging app)I could easily see the last 3-5 messages even with the keyboard open. One the note 3, I can see one or maybe 2 of the last messages with the keyboard open, and as I start to type a new message I'm lucky if I can even see all of the last message sent.

I just don't get why they give you such a big screen then clutter it with huge icons and texts/keyboards and things. Sure its great for movie and web browsing, but that huge screen really doesn't do much for day to day use I don't think because they scaled up everything else at the same time.

One of my friends said on his Note 2 there was a way to change the resolution(he said resolution, not sure if he meant that or dpi) and also a way to change the amount of icons touch wiz allows. I did think there was a way to change the number of icons in touchwiz. Its default is 4, I was pretty sure 5 was possible and even though they had recently bumped it up to 6, but I could not find that option anywhere.

Any help?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] plastikpyro:
I used Nova Launcher to resize the icons on an unrooted Note 2. I don't know if that's still the case on the Note 3 since I don't have one yet.
