[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] URPREY:
Same here mostly on wifi. I had the same issue on my Note 2 and I think it has something to do with my router (Netgear R6300). Very annoying
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] himasura:
This is only for Legacy Xperia 10.2 build 20131101

This is not Theme Chooser!

Try it on Your own risk!

This patch makes possible to replace gradiented backgrounds with .png image.

You can replase .png images in .zip with Your own.

- install via CWM
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iiandskater:
Sorry but,

what the purpose of this ??

I mean, why change xml file with png file as it has same result (holo background) ??

And AFAIK it's better to use xml than png because it's smaller in size that affect in performance (faster to load) and good for ram (lite file)

Anyone with me ?? :confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] himasura:
1. It is not gradient image in this patch.

2. You can use any proper .PNG image.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] himasura:
Sample.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Dominik95:
only CM10.2?

will work on CM10.1?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] himasura:
No
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Dominik95:
why?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] himasura:
Because it is for CM10.2
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] le grande magnetto:
Why dont just use theme if default gradient looks boring?:highfive:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] himasura:
You can use theme, or You can just set background You want. This is Your choice.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iiandskater:
This guy is right..

another benefit of using theme is u don't need to reboot - flashing - turn on phone all the time to change background,

just apply via Theme Chooser.. :highfive:

Still u can make ur own theme (there's many tuts on Google) :)

Okay then,

Just have fun with ur stuff.. :)

(i'm serious :rolleyes:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] himasura:
Somebody want to using theme, but somebody just want to change background with his own image. I make it easy for everyone ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iiandskater:
Theme Chooser theme can change just the background too,

but the much better part is you don't need to do 'reboot' and 'flashing' things.. ;)

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] ian.anindya:
Hi All,

My HTC One AT&T 32GB jut got bricked!

I don't root, unlock or s-off remain on stock rom 4.12.

This problem happen after restart just only normal restart phone to get fresh but suddenly after restart phone became very slow, not responsive on touch screen. After for a while screen off but I cannot make it up again.

I have try several way to make it up again but so far no any luck.

- Push power button 10-20s ----> no Luck.

- Push power button+volume down 10-20s ----> no Luck.

- Push power button+volume up 10-20s ----> no Luck.

- Push power button+volume up+ down with light on proximity sensor for 20-30s but also not luck.

- Try to connect with charger but no any LED on (normally Red LED On when charging)

When connected on PC (already install HTC sync) detected as qhsusb_dload but update driver failed.

Any one can give suggestion since I live not in USA? If I bring to local HTC service center will be not cover with guarantee.

Thanks.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] xcrazydx:
That's a hard brick. Jtag it
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] ian.anindya:
Hi,

Thanks.

Any link tutorial JTAG HTC One?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] xcrazydx:
You can't do it yourself unless you have a jtag box and the skill to use it. Send it out
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] ian.anindya:
I have try to contact local Riff JTAG service but currently not supported with HTC One AT&T PN07120. They currently only supports for PN0710000 and PN0711000.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] xcrazydx:
What about mobiletechvideos.com?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] FanDroid09:
Haha wtf... Why not just send it to HTC for warranty replacement?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Mr1070:
In order for you to install the drivers,

shut down computer

turn it on and press F8 until you see the menu with

repair computer

safe boot

ect

in that list of options is disable signature verification

this only last until next reboot, but it will allow you to install the driver

then power button + volume down + tap home button
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] bkmenon:
Similar Problem

Hi Ian,

Were you able to resolve your AT&T HTC One brick issue? I have a similar issue and would like the user community support here.

I can't send my phone back to HTC for replacement because I am now in India and I have purchased it from one of my friends.

I haven't root; but unlocked (I believe, hence can use my local India SIM card) but nothing else. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Krishna Menon.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] ian.anindya:
Finally my HTC One AT&T got repair by HTC USA.

Purple tint camera have been fixed too! All free as my phone never root and under warranty period.

Now, I have been converted to WWE Asia after changing MID and CID and successful get update to KitKat via OTA update. Keep S-off and unlock Bootloader. Later will flash TWRP and root.

Happy Again.

Thanks to HTC but so sorry to AT&T. I need to throw away your rubbish bloatware apps from my phones.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] adoublearonn:
For those of you waiting patiently (:eek:) for root, there is a simple substitute for WiFi Tether that worked on the Note II and some other phones as well. I'm just leaving this here in case someone doesn't know.

1. Go to Settings > More Settings > Mobile Hotspot (don't turn it on, but select it).

2. Press Configure and set your desired hotspot settings.

3. Go to Play Store and download "Hotspot Toggle Widget" by Fattin Hotspot Network. Link.

4. Add widget to home screen.

5. Toggle widget on.

6. Press the Home button to dismiss this annoying, useless popup.

7. Enjoy.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] changt34x:
This also works with Foxfi when you get the subscription notification, just click home and tether away.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] bossei:
Works like a charm! Thank you...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] repsol_23:
I can verify that foxfi works fine on mine also!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] darkhawkff:
Both of these methods work, I just wonder how long until Big Red patches this out.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmorton10:
It has worked forever on the Note2 which kinda surprised me.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] snwbrdr852:
Any word on doing this with unlimited?

I'm sure it would work, but will Verizon be able to track it somehow?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] airmaxx23:
I've been tethering on my unlimited plan for a couple years and have never had an issue. I use around 20GB per month, mostly without tethering, but I do use it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] repsol_23:
I have tethered for years also. My kids and wife use my tether since I am only one with unlimited. I average 20 gb per month and never had any issues.

Sent from my Note 3
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] adoublearonn:
I have unlimited and it's working fine. I don't think I've ever heard of anyone getting hassled for using it modestly.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmboulware:
What is the advantage of doing this instead of just using the native app?

JB
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] njfoses:
People on the older unlimited data plans do not have free tethering included in their plans.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmorton10:
I'm not sure they really care.

I always kept my usage reasonable, but some douche where I work was DLing torrents at over 100 gigs a month!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] inco9nito99:
So for those on a 4gb/month plan they can use the built-in tethering app and be just fine without incurring any added costs for doing so?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] changt34x:
If you are on a not unlimited plan you should already have tethering enabled, so no need to do anything but use the built-in app.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Buddy Revell:
Oh, damn 100GB a month? That's nuts. I wonder if there's a cutoff where Verizon starts to become concerned about data use. 20GB? 30GB?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] ttreed07:
Actually the only plan you can tether at no extra charge its the share everything. If you are on any other plan, it is not included. Okay
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dukins:
Hmm for some reason not working for me. Following directions precisely. Stock rooted. Keeps checking for Verizon subscription.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] lsxrx7:
yea

I am in the same boat, cant get that to work either
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dukins:
Finally got it to work. I'm tethering now. Even though the verizon subscription pops up, just press the home button. Profit. Thanks op.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] socram19xx:
"Portable Wi-Fi hotspot Free" app by Core Technology worked from
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] androidx213:
PDAnet with FiFox works like a charm. Thanks for posting this method as well!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] leyvatron:
You dont need any of those apps. Hotspot works out of the box.

Configure the turn it on, you will see a Verizon window pop up that says to call for subscription > just press the home button and you are on.

If you press the cancel button it will turn it off.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] holyking:
I have unlimited. I am worry vzw will charge us extra for tethering. Most Our devices is not root yet. This works for letting people tether, but no 100% avoid changes. .
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] repsol_23:
I also have unlimited and have used tethering for years and I have never been charged or had my plan changed.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] 213ninja:
i am not able to make this ^^ work with just the OOTB stock VZW hotspot. i configured it, then turned it on, got the warning about subscribing, hit home, and nothing....
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] leyvatron:
Reboot and try it. It works. I have the same.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dutchie25:
foxfi

So does Foxfi work on the note 3 for a wifi hotspot or just tethering? I am looking for a new phone and being able to use the Foxfi wifi hotspot is essential. I don't plan on rooting the phone. I also need to see if there is a way to keep unlimited data...last person at Best Buy said they can't do it anymore....that also is essential.

Thanks for any input.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmorton10:
FoxFi works, you don't need it.

When you fire up the hotspot, you get a warning screen popping up saying you need a subscription to use that feature.

Leave that warning on the screen and push the home button and you're good to go......

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmorton10:
I have found the best way is to add the WiFi hotspot quick toggle to the taskbar toggles and then freeze the SPG app.

That way the hotspot turns on just like a custom ROM & you don't get the VZ nag screen either.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] repsol_23:
I was so tired of that pop up every time I used foxfi. I didn't know how to get rid of it. Thanks.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
Hey all, I just got my GN3, still am using the GN2 though BC Verizon can't get the phone to activate to my phone number? Actually Verizon says it show the GN3 activated, but l have no service/phone/data/anything at all. They tried 5 different GN3's and 13 different SIM cards before they gave up trying to activate. My number works/activates just fine on my GN2. So they gave me a temporary number yesterday to see if it was a problem with my particular phone number and sure enough, my GN3 activated on the temp number. When I switched back to my reg # it wouldn't connect...again. Then I went to work which was about 10 miles away and the GN3 activated on my reg#. I called my wife, made a few texts, surfed the net, etc... for about 2 hours, when I got about 8 miles from home, I lost all connection again... What gives here? It's the weirdest problem I've ever seen. I'm home now, and tried activating it again with no luck. Any thoughts??

I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum for this thread, if so please move??
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chino0131:
Mine wouldn't activate for the first 20-30 minutes or so. I removed the sim card, reinstalled then went on the website and updated the Note 3 in formation for my line. Had keep refreshing my lines info on the Web page about 2 more times and hit accept before it Finally activated. Took about 5 additional minutes after removing the sim. Not sure if that will help, but hope you get it working.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
Well seeing as how I got mine on 10OCT2013 at 10 am and it still hasn't activated, I think it's not going to at this point. I may sadly have to go back to my GN2 and return the GN3 altogehter. :crying:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pliablemoose:
Mine seemed stuck on activation, ended up using my old sim card, activated almost instantly.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
Update: just got off phone with Big Red and they said that for some reason when I'm on my "home" towers, my activation has trouble letting go of the GN2?? Maybe it really is hard to say good-bye...:(

They are working on it now...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f-castrillo:
I've always had an issue activating my old number on a new phone with a new SIM.... I've always just switched my old SIM card in and it's worked perfectly lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yachats:
Make sure the SIM card has been linked correctly to your phone number. The easiest way is to look on the VZW paperwork that came with the phone and make sure it's your phone nbr and not another person's on your plan.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] urielsynthesis:
I am having more or less the same issue.

To make a long story short, whenever I leave the "home" cell tower that the phone was activated on, it will not connect to any kind of network whatsoever. It just shows a circle with a line through it, and at the same time it reboots itself, randomly and frequently, even when it isn't being touched. All of these problems go away as soon as I get back home to that cell tower. I wonder if the original poster activated his phone at work the first time, and that's why it only works when he returns to work?

I have tried 3 different SIMS to fix this: the one that came in the GN3, the one from my old Galaxy Nexus, and a brand new one from a Verizon store. I have done half a dozen factory data restores.

My next step is to try an in-store swap. A local store around here first refused to hold a phone for me to swap, then when I got there (or rather when a family member got there), we were told that there was a master ticket for this issue and there was a freeze on doing any exchanges until Samsung released a "fix". My subsequent conversations with Verizon tech support have confirmed that the whole story about a master ticket and not doing exchanges was a complete lie. The stores are actually required to uphold the 14 day worry free guarantee no matter what. Obviously this store didn't want to give up a phone to me that they could sell to someone else. They weren't just being unhelpful, they were running interference on resolving my problem for their own greed.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ykwak:
I had an activation problem in store yesterday when swapping my note 2 for note 3. The sales rep entered the sim card info that was on the sticker on the box for the sim card that comes with the phone.

It all ended up causing major activation / service connectivity issues because the sim card info on the box did Not match the actual sim card number for the sim pre-installed on the phone.

This is apparently an issues for some other people as well. If the sim card in the phone is not reconciled with the info on the box prior to entering the info into Verizon's system.... You will be in for a time consuming headache
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
Switching your device or SIM will not work. I have now gone through 6 GN3's and almost 20 different SIM cards. It's the towers/service from Verizon. They have noted that this is a problem and are working diligently to fix it...lol Meanwhile, I've returned my GN3 and will wait until they fix this disaster. This rollout is almost as bad as Obamacare...haha
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hctimin:
Mine kept trying to activate on the phone and would continually fail.

I thought I had a faulty device and was going to go to the store. Something told me to login to MyVerizon online on my computer [since I kept my old phone off as directed via the on-screen instructions] and poke around and see if there was anything there that might be able to help me.

I clicked on my line, and the Manage My Device link on the left hand side of the screen and ended up being able to complete the activation via the website. Re-booted the phone, and then voila~! Activation complete.

FYI, I was migrating from an iPhone 5 to the GN3.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
Yeah I tried that as well. I'm not sure there is anything I haven't tried. I've returned my device and decided to stick with my Note 2. Maybe when Verizon gets their heads on right and fixes this, I'll come back.

[G2 Accessories] kcharng:
Took the plunge today with skinomi techskin dark wood version. Not really sure Iif I like it yet but it is a lot better then the glossy plastic back. Takes some photos for you guys, so make your own decision.

The skin is kinda nice with texture feel to it. My only concern is with the durability of the glue. I will be using my phone naked from now on. The skinomi will have to withstand constant rubbing in my pockets and hopefully it doesn't peel off around the edges and end up being a very expensive sticker. I am hoping that it will last me at least six month and hopefully a year. Any less and I won't be purchasing their product again.

Only time will tell.

=edited=

Forgot to mentioned that I purchased the at&t cut to be used with the international D802 version. The back button fits perfectly. However there is a small hole at the back above the flashe which my D802 version have no uses for.

Updated with some more pictures.

Regards,
[G2 Accessories] ronald5:
It all depends on how good you applied the skin, and it seams that you did an excellent job.

pictures look great, thanks a lot for sharing!
[G2 Accessories] kcharng:
Thanks. Right now the skin feels tight around the back off the phone. I used extras heat and pressure around the edges hopefully this will make the glue bonded well with the phone.

[G2 Accessories] x714x:
Looks good! Surprised you didnt take off the esn/imei sticker first though :P
[G2 Accessories] hpsauce37:
how was the installation process of this? ive ordered the carbon skin version of this but was a little concerned about how easy it is to apply around the edges etc.
[G2 Accessories] kcharng:
No worries around corner and edges. Use hair dryers that is hot enough and it literally mold it self around the edges. Keep heating it up and rub the edges with your fingers and you will get it perfect as long as you line it up correctly.

[G2 Accessories] kcharng:
Kinda thinking about it, I was thinking it might be beneficial later on. Didn't realized it would show this much through the skin else I would have taken it off.

Just a quick update. After three weeks of usage, the skin is holding well and looked brand new.

I have always wondered about these things. They offer nothing but scratch protection and perhaps improve grip. They do look cool, especially when applied as well as yours. I guess if you do not want a case then this is the best idea other than commando. I accidentally got the full Zagg kit for one of my early phones. It didn't last long. Thin parts peeled within a couple weeks. Sounds like these are nicer
[G2 Accessories] kcharng:
I was comfortable with a case before because this phone is so thin, extra bulk helps with the grip.

However after going naked for month, I kinda liked it a lot and the phone feels great in your hand. I hated the shiny back of G2, being a finger print magnet and always leave you hand feeling dirty and oily. This skin feels much better.

I didn't use the skinomi front protectors as it is similar to zagg. I used to have zagg for my old phone and I hated how it feels. Instead I use regular clear protector for the front.

[G2 Accessories] Bigralphn:
I understand the feel. Skinomi doesnt feel like the Zagg though. It didn't have that wrinkled look with the phone off either. It may be like the newer Zagg Hd, but I do not link is because I have never tried the hd
[G2 Accessories] fr4nk1yn:
Looks like the same material as the exoskin.

Can't really are how the corners compare the the exoskin has an 'LG' cutout that looks great.

When applying great be careful as the material can tear/break easier with heat.
[G2 Accessories] kcharng:
When I applied in it it was somewhat easy. After making sure that everything lined up, all you have to do is heat it with hot air from dryers especially around the corners and the skins molded it self nicely.

So far everything seemed to be sticking well to the phone. But it has only been a month so we will see.

-LG G2
[G2 Accessories] quangtran1:
I like this product; however, I had troubles keeping the corners down. When I pulled the phone out of my pocket, the corners get peeled. I ended up cut off all corners. I didn't think I'd like it afterwards but I did. Still have it on now.

Hi kcharng, I have checked Skinomi's site and I saw their techskin have some pieces to apply to the edge around phone, but I didn't see them on your phone. Could you please tell me if they were included?

Thank you.
[G2 Accessories] kcharng:
They are included but I didn't put them on. Personally I feels that it looked better to without it.
[G2 Accessories] t2pham:
Do you think it will fit my international version?
[G2 Accessories] nexicon:

[G2 Accessories] mikedeconboy:

[G2 Accessories] quangtran1:
Just buttons.

Thanks.

The at&t version fit the international fine except for the extra hole on the skin at the back.

The buttons have the skin included but I also didn't put them on.

No camera lens shield.

Updates:

After approx. A month of using naked, some of the sharp edges start to peel off. Nothing major so I reheated with the hot air and hopefully it will stay awhile longer with out cutting.
