All I can say right now is thank goodness for Wanam's Exposed, that app covers so many things all by its lonesome. I'd be rocking Darthstalker but it changes something that keeps me from visiting most sites via tethering, if your familiar with Team Venom Viper rom for the HTC One that was the best rom I ever used as far as the customization and all the addons and such accessible from the hub they add in, I was so spoiled by that rom it's hard to imagine using anything with less feature rich. I'm sure something like that takes a group effort whereas some of you guys work alone but I would donate my left one for Venom on this phone.

[General Questions and Answers] boszmon:
Hi everyone,

This is my first post.

I switched from note 2 to note 3.

Just discovered there is no S-Note pop up feature, which was my MOST used/desired feature in Note 2, and now with the Note 3, it does NOT have this feature, only Action Memo, which is very basic, and saves as an Action Memo file, not an S-Note file, which would have been perfect.

So the action memo app is so basic, you can't even sync with google docs or whatever back up source. It only stays on the phone. Cant edit the memo names, cant change the pen type etc. Very sh***y.

Just wondering if there is a way, on my Note 3, i can install the old S-Note which was on the note 2, and have the pop up feature when S-pen is Detached?

Thanks

Hello,

I was trying to change my Nfc.apk with the mod from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2330677. I've downloaded the 244 but after reboot my phone was giving me only the message that the NFC service was stopped. I managed to delete the Nfc.apk in the system/app folder and after reboot my phone is acting normal.

But, now i don't have a original Nfc.apk (I know, always make a backup).

So, does anyone please have the original APK (Build number: 14.1.G.1.534) or can anyone tell me what I have to do so my NFC tags can work in lockscreen.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godman_8:
I was on the rom CM10.1.(2 or 3) latest stable.

My friends were complaining about my phone quality who some have all carriers, Sprint, AT&T, and Verizon. Some phones they were using were Motorola RAZER V3, Galaxy S3, Note 2, Note 3, iPhone 4s, iPhone 5s, and HTC EVO 3D. When I hear them it is crystal clear but when I talk it all muffled. I called myself from google voice and as far as I could tell I sounded clear.

I've tested physical mic quality and it sounds fine (with a sound recorder app)

I switched over to an odexed 4.3 stock rom with root & busybox then proceeded to update my radio the lastest .84 or something.

How can I fix this?

Edit. I have T-Mobile

[HTC One X] TiredHornet:
Hi,

I disassamble my HTC One X to clean the microphone hole. Put it back together and then noticed some static noise coming form the earpiece. So I took it apart again. I tried to figure out what was wrong with the earpiece... No clue. So I applied a bit of pressure to the earpiece. I turned the phone back on while still without the backcover and earpiece now seemed fine. Before reassembling it I decided it would be better to turn it off. Which is quite hard without the button. And this is where something must have gone wrong. I pressed down quiet hard on power button and now the screen won't go one again. I never really manage to turn it off.

The power button still seems to be working. If I push it for five seconds the home button and the other two will flash. But apart from that nothing much happens. Plugin the phone in makes the led glow red.

Does anyone have an idea what could be the problem here? Any ideas are welcome!

Thx,

TiredHornet
[HTC One X] TimeWasterNL:
Keep it plugged in for a while and retry. I'm not saying that your battery is drained, but it maybe acts like it somehow (happened to me a few times).

Good luck.

Thx, this really seems to have done the trick!
[Networking] xdaskeff:
Hello!

I was on a vacation abroad recently and tried out something novel for me: To use VPN while on a public wifi. Another neatness was that the PPTP VPN server was running on my ASUS RT-AC66U router back home, an endpoint I'm pretty comfortable with ;)

However, there was one thing that griped me: Whenever I established a connection to a wireless network, Viber or Facebook Messenger or something would pop up a message before I could establish the VPN connection. Now, since I don't know how these services work, I don't know if there was a brief period in there that my device communicated messages and credentials in the open. Hopefully there remains some sort of encryption certificates from a previously negotiated session, but I'd like to be confident that it's not possible to send unencrypted credentials or messages.

Ideally, the phone should remain passive until all traffic is routed through the secure tunnel. Is there any way to do this? Android introduced "Always-On VPN" that sounds like it claims to be what I'm looking for. However, it only works for L2TP as far as I understand.

The usage case scenario here allows for no data by default/block all ports/route everything locally. Then if wifi connection is established, open port for VPN connection, establish VPN, then open all ports. Presently I've switched to OpenVPN also, and installed the "OpenVPN for Android" application. I have no problems establishing a VPN connection, it's just tightening any holes I'm interested in.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dan37tz:
I use my phone like a replacement laptop, I do pretty much everything on it including downloading torrent files.

With a super strong T-Mobile LTE connection and unlimited data, it's truly a dream when it comes to torrents.

Unfortunately I tried to download a few torrents today at work on my Note 3 and it turns out I can't get nearly the same download speeds as my Note 2.

We're talking about mobile data here, not WiFi.

I use tTorrent Pro and I can't seem to download any faster than 20KB/s average. Swap the SIM to my Note 2 and I get average 1.5-2 MB/s downloads.

Tried 4 other different torrent apps with the same result. Does anybody else have a similar problem with torrents over mobile data?

I'm thinking maybe Samsung put up some kind of firewall on the N3 or something?

Back to report that re-rooting with arco's method but with rootkit v2 (that includes kernel) seems to solve the issue! the steps i follow was :

1) gain root

2) install cwm recovery

3) with es explorer delete knox store,knox agent, container agent (both apk and odex files)

4) reboot to cwm recovery

5) clear cache and davlik cache

6) reboot and RESURRECTION!!!:good:

WiFi and Modem Issue

hi guys. i'm sorry for asking my question here,i have i9192 & my wifi do not turn on. i flash various version of official rom, but i cant solve this problem. I flash (MH2 ,MF7 ,MF9 and MJ2...) build number & CSC are change but Baseband version remain constant and don't change.

how can i flash modem( NON_HLOS.bin)...?

i root my phone so many time with Rootkit v2 and do all wipes for clean flash... but no successive achieve

how can i repair my WiFi and Bluetooth?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vriz27:
i think it's a kernel related issue. But first in order to eliminated hardware problem possibility, try to flash a cm rom. If your wifi and bluetooth works then you can be sure it's not a hardware failure. in my case flashing a different kernel solved the issue.

p.s : if you find a way to change baseband version ,please share the way!!!

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] numbnutsuk:
Having paid a lot of money for a high end device this Sony has some very annoying issues I would of thought Sony could have resolved before sale or after a quick update! Which I'm still waiting for 2 weeks later.....

Auto backlight does not adjust

Adaptive light and optimised backlight does not work. It does not dim or brighten with changing light conditions.

It's more than annoying having to adjust the brightness yourself.

If one or the other is selected or not selected and you restart your device it will get stuck in a loop and not turn back on.

The speakers both suck. Volume quality is terrible on calls and quality of music produced from speaker is even worse!

But the headset quality and volume is outstanding I give them that.

The camera sucks too...

Spending the sort of money and expecting high standards it knocks my confidence in Sony as a maker of phones. And angers me even more they have not fiXed these things yet with updates. Don't they care or don't they have a clue how to fix them?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBD49ogR8c0
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
CM10.2 is the solution to almost all of these problems... or wait for a sony update..

- sound quality. You can't expect a waterproof speak/mic to be as loud and receptive as other devices. There is a waterproof membrane covering these, so of course they wont be as good as non water proof devices.

- camera. But surely you knew 8mp camera wasn't going to be as good as a 13mp camera.. or even the Z1 21mp camera... I find the 8Mp camera adequate... of course would rather have a better camera, but not at the expense of a fatter device...

like [MENTION=2751672]avetny[/MENTION] said... If you wanted a different device then sell and move on
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] AntiLazarus:
Speaker does not suck. It's very clear. Not that loud, but it's waterproof. How many other phone speakers can make that claim? And anyway, this is only my personal opinion, but you've purchased a high-end device--just bite the bullet and get a great quality headset to go with it. A good Bluetooth headset will sound better than any phone speakers anyway, as well as allow you to make hands-free calls, something that suddenly becomes very important with the Z Ultra. IMO, the phone's speaker is only for notification sounds, and maybe occasionally sharing a video or song with a friend.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
couldn't agree more
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ij0rgei:
yea. i didnt expect the speaker to be any good except for small stuff or quick videos. i actually picked up the SBH20 for pretty cheap from a sony hook up while im waiting for the SBH52 to be released here in the USA. for the price, it works like charm. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bASKOU:
This is really weird all you say, me I only have a problem with the adapt and optimized.

The camera is the best I had on a phone so far, just need to not use automatic mode and use my head. And since .532 system files update, noise on low luminosity and the jpeg artifact has been grandly improved. But I believe that all reviews about the phone told photo quality was poor in auto mode so I am surprise you can be disappointed by that.

Ghost clicking? Only got it with wet or dirty hands. But I don't remember ever used a phone with wet hands before this one, certainly because I could damaged them.

But I have the feeling since the beginning I see you on this forum, you don't even own a XZU and just made a compilation of problems some people posted on the forum.

In future OP I'd suggest you read/watch some reviews of the products you intend to buy as you would then be a lot better educated on what to expect from your devices.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] AntiLazarus:
I recently bought an app called "Camera CV-5" on the Play store after a member here (forget who) recommended it, and I have to say, I'm quite impressed with the pictures it takes, even on full auto mode. Especially for a device with a "bad camera." Sony makes good sensors.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bASKOU:
Yes the sensor is really good. Just a shame Sony mess up with the auto mode of the stock camera and the ISO management. Can get good result in manual (from 100 to 400 ISO cause at 800 and more the result is not good) and when in low light can use scene HDR backlight mode. Not really want to pay for a camera app.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] natispain:
Is camara CV-5 or FV-5?

And how do you configurated it?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ChillyChan:
The ghost clicking happens to me if I'm using the phone while it's connected to the PC via USB. It's not a problem specific to ZU 'cause it also happened on my Note II if connected to a PC. Sometimes, sweat and water on the screen are also the cause.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] AntiLazarus:
Whoops, you're right, it's FV-5. I don't know much about camera settings, so I basically just put it in auto mode, I just choose the output type as high-quality JPEG.
