I deleted the Shutter.ogg file and the sound is gone when using the camera. But if I'm in Kik, the shutter sound is still there. It's not that big of a deal for me, I just thought all app's used the system sound files, especially for a system app.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mintcookies:
you guys can try installing the app Note 2 Hidden Settings:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.steinapps.note2hiddensettings&hl=en

it has a function to enable the shutter off option in the camera app.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saknice20:
Just wanted to let others know...this worked. Wanam didn't work and renaming the shutter didn't work.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snwbrdr852:
I haven't tried that Note 2 hidden settings thing, but have tried a couple other methods including Wanam.

I noticed today though, that I get the shutter sound when smart stabilization is on, but no sound when it is off...

Pretty weird, but maybe it will help diagnose?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MicheleJ:
I can confirm this works for my note 3. Added the option for camera sounds in camera settings menu. Opened camera then went into settings then toggled off.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gunthermic:
Perhaps this will help some of you with Shutter sounds. it also states that the reason that deleting the ogg file isnt working is that it's included inside the Camera app now!

No problem! This is definitely the easiest way. The only remaining noises are on the arrows for the other settings on the screen. They are annoying but not nearly as annoying as the picture taking noise.

I have the same problem, today i rang samsung uk to confirm the phone was good for uk and they did confirm it was a uk phone and they suggested that i ring various network providers to check the imei against their database, after spending a long time talking to various support teams in "lost or stolen " i ended up with all the networks saying phone was not known on their network as lost or barred so now i am in the same boat as you, mine has jb 412 installed.
[Nokia Lumia 1020] mobi:
Hi All,

Just switched from my trusted 900 to the 1020 on AT&T. I love the phone and even updated last night to GDR3 and today unlocked it since I travel a fair bit.

In the past I was able to use the Nokia Connection Setup but a search of the app store doesn't find it. I found it on the net, scanned the QR code and found the app but it says its limited to a 480 resolution. Seems strange but I cannot install it.

Anyone know of a good app that will help me when traveling to add APN's when I insert a new sim? I know that lately, a lot of these phones will find the home network (whatever sim) and add the correct APN but I'm not sure if this is a true statement for all.

Anyone got any ideas? Cheers.

Try flash back your country firmware with correct CSC.

I can't boot my phone and i can't boot recovery...i always get the message "Custom binary blocked by Reactivation Lock. Secure fail: Kernel" with a yellow alert triangle underneath, even if I normally try to boot my phone. And when I than press the power button the phone turns off again.

I tried to flash cwm with odin but that also failed.

So before i go downloading another firmware (i live in a dormatory and only have 10gb internet a month) do you really think that would work?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rp1790:

Hey guys.

Had the same problem with a similar message after Flashing the N3EchoeSlimV2.zip. (was running on Xnote V3 europeen firmware )

Custom binary blocked by Reactivation Lock.

SECURE FAIL: RECOVERY

Only way to boot, was the download mod

So i went back stock rom with Odin.

But i coudnt flash any Custom recovery or Cfroot. Many tries with différent Odin version.

I finally installed a recovery after took the battery off a couple of hours.

Sorry for my bad english
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kinoal:
Same problem here with the slim version!

Anybody have an idea?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] njan_ivide:
I had posted the solution here on a different thread but let me make it easier for you:

Solution.

1. download KIES 3 (for note 3)

2. Click tools>Firmware upgrade and initialization

3. Put phone into download mode (press Volume down+Home Button+Power Button and then volume up)

4. Connect your phone (it is OK if it is not recognized by KIES, just keep it connected)

5. Now do as it says by typing in your Phone model number (check the battery compartment).

6. Type in the S/N.

7. Let it do its business and download the firmware.

8. Once firmware is downloaded, It will start communicating with the phone.

9. You can see a blue progress line on the screen under the android guy.

10. Let it finish and restart.

DONE! you are back to stock..

NOTE: This doesnt make your KNOX warranty 0x0 if it is already 0x1.

Click Thanks if it helped!! ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndHD2:
Calm down guys

What I did was enter into download mode like rp1790 suggested and maybe he did a typing error. When in download mode press down to restart the phone. It bypassed the custom binary block error and booted as normal.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
This doesn't work if you install a firmware with the new bootloaders... You CAN'T flash an older bootloader over the new one. It just sends you into a bootloop....

And thats before you include the re-activation lock error...

I have also just encountered the same error as the OP, however the above method doesn't work for me, kies 3 gives me an unknown error (i.e. it doesn't say what error) and just fails.

Really close to going for this as my next handset but have a few questions.

I currently have an S2 and use Apex launcher instead of touchwiz. If i chose to use Apex instead of touchwiz would i lose any of the features such as the s pen and air view?

Thanks Neil
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kyndig66:
I use Apex and all is well. :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skander1998:
You won't lose any features because of Apex.

Flashing CM will make you lose custom features.

TLDR; No, all is fine.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dahdoul:
I use Nova luncher and all the features are working very well,i think it's the same with Apex
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheFishmonger:
So i could use it pretty much the same. Why should i choose it over the G2 or the upcoming nexus 5? Camera isn't the best apparently

Thanks Neil
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dexterxda:
I might buy the Note 3 soon too. My problem with the G2 is that LG doesn't update its smartphones. The Nexus 5 might be difficult to buy when it launches (remember the nexus 4?) as far as I'm concerned I want a big screen, I don't like a ppi too high, and I want to doodle with the s-pen (as I used to with my note 1)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheFishmonger:
Lg phones drop in value like a stone too which also puts me off. I also thought the same about availability of the Nexus 5.

I suppose it's not knowing what the Nexus is definitely like is putting me off getting the note. Never used a note either. Some decent deals out there for it right now.

I can get it for £36 a month on an 18 month contract with no upfront cost.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dodgebizkit:
Get a cheap as chips nexus 4 as your work/professional phone and a note 3 on contract as your social phone, best of both worlds without breaking the bank :) always have the uptodate android for as long as n4 is supported, probably at least another 2 years judging by its spec and that 4.4 reduces resource consumption, and you have all the utilities and power of a note 3 that should get 2 or 3 years worth of slower updates too and won't be outdated by anything that has a rigid glass screen judging by how mobile tech is moving forward.

Hope this advice helps :)

The additional features are not part of Touchwiz, they are a separate overlay on top of the launcher. Even if you remove Touchwiz completely, they remain untouched and functional.

I use Apex, too. Works perfectly. (Nova apparently crashes for people, have noticed no such thing on Apex.)

I take no credit in the development of this app, I'm merely making a recommendation for those who would find it useful.

IntelliCover 2.0 is a utility which uses your device’s proximity sensor, light sensor and/or accelerometer to turn the screen on and off, allowing fast and efficient access to your phone or tablet.

It turns the screen off automatically when you put your device in your pockets, close its flip cover, store the device in a bag, or even just leave the device facing down on a table. As soon as the device is back in your hand the proximity sensor is triggered again, the screen turns back on and your device in instantly ready for use. This improves productivity immensely on large devices or devices that do not have physical hardware buttons.

IntelliCover 2.0 - Google Play Store

[APP][2.3+][FREE] IntelliCover 2.0 - Display Automation using Proximity/Light - Official XDA Thread

I've been using this app for a couple days with my Cellto Wallet Case and love it.

Open the cover; Screen on. Close the cover; Screen off.

Seems to use a minimal amount of battery, but for the convenience I think it's worth it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] stanglifemike:
I've been using this app since late last night/early this morning. Seems pretty nice so far. I don't have a flip cover on my GN3, but still like being able to lay my phone face down an the display go off. Also nice that that display comes on when you pick it up. I've yet to put this app on my GN2, but I'm about to install this app and put my Samsung flip cover on it. Not completely sure on getting a flip cover for my GN3 yet, because I've used the $40 flip cover on my GN2 less than 10 times. I think having this app an my flip cover on my GN2 will help my decide if I do want one for my GN3 though!

Excellent app suggestion. I used Gravity screen during my E4GT days, and got used to it after a while. We needed that app, since you had a pretty good chance that you would end up with a busted power button as the phone aged. Seems like a similar function.

just like to ask if i can have the apk for the old version? just like to observe which one has better battery consumption. basically the new version is a little bit bigger in terms of size because of the new UI, features, bug fixes and language. but the more simple app is better. at least for me. :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] copc:
Installed it and tried it for a bit, Did not like it for my use so I has been removed.

My phone sits screen up on my desk at work, so if I reach over my phone or something to trigger it on accident, the screen comes on then goes off. It may seem like a small thing but after an hour of using it it I lost count on how many times it would be triggered. all that is going to do for me is kill my battery.

Thanks for the suggestion, seems like a cool idea for some peoples usage.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Kompster:
At first I felt the same way, but with all the configuration options such as screen on delay, screen off delay, proximity, light, proximity+light, etc... I just increased the screen on and off delays till it didn't pick up on accidental stuff like that.

Hi all.

Shure will be releasing their new "I" series this week. Apparently they will have several models that will meld high quality stereo earbuds with a mic. Shure says that the single plug 2.5mm model will work with the Treo, but no mention of other 2.5mm devices.

Anyone care to comment on whether they will work on the Wizard? I hope so since I don't want to be relegated to using the stock headphones/mic that came with the device.

TIA!

Shure's response on I-Series

My email to them:

I own an i-mate JAM Windows Mobile Pocket PC which has a 2.5mm 4-conductor

headset jack. Will your Treo version of the I Series work with my phone,

and if not, is there an adapter I can purchase?

Their response:

The Treo version will not work with the PPC. Here is the adapter:

http://www.pocketpctechs.com/main~u...ccessories-Audio+Adapters~item~PPCPADPT14.htm[/url]

You will then use our I series DUAL connector version with the adapter giving you phone and stereo music with a flick of the switch through your PPC. If you then have a separate mp3 player you can then use the one side of the I series for music and then plug the phone side into your phone without the adapter to take a phone call. The above adapter gives you phone and stereo music or you can eliminate the adapter for just phone calls and free up the headphone jack for another device. Thanks!

Shure I Series with Treo Connector (i2cT, i3cT, i4cT)

The Shure I Series with the Treo connector works on my i-mate JAM.

Seidio sells an in-the-ear headset w/ mic. The same model number (BD3-H2ERNTR650-BK) is sold for use with

Palm Treo 650 / 700w

Audiovox SMT 5600

HP iPAQ hw6500 Series

i-mate Jam / SP3 / SP3i / PDA2

MDA II / Compact

O2 XDA II / IIi / II mini

Orange SPV C500 / M1000

Qtek 8010 / S100 / S110 / 2020 / 2020i

So I thought it was fairly safe to order the Shure i2cT for my JAM. As I said, they work. I even left myself a message on my home phone to test the mic. It works. And the sound is fantastic. I've sampled a little of everything and I am very impressed (Biggie Smalls, Cracker, Thievery Corporation, Miles Davis, Devin the Dude).

The only drawback is that there is no answer/end call button (there is a microphone mute switch and a volume control).

I'm not sure if your device is listed above (or a clone), but if so, I would imagine the Shure I Series with the Treo connector (i2cT, i3cT, i4cT) would work for you.

If there is no answer/end button, how do you answer calls?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] M_Dash:
You have to use the buttons on the phone to answer/end calls. Some headsets have a button on the in-line mic that you can press to answer an incoming call, saving you from having to pull the phone from your pocket. The Shure I Series does not have this button.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] teppy1:

MDash,

Here is the response I got from Shure:

Hi Stephanie,

Our I series will be compatible with your Wizard. However, there will be some limitations.

The single jack version we have for smartphones is only completely compatible with the Treo 700W and 650.

The dual jack version is the one that will work with your Wizard. It is a stereo headset that is designed to work with two different devices at once - a cell phone and an mp3 player.

You can use the headset with your phone and answer calls, text message, etc. All of it's functions. You will also be able to listen to music via your phone. BUT...Here is the limitation - the audio will only be able to work in a mono sound for both ears. So you will hear the music in both ears, but it won't be true stereo.

The other jack, which fits iPods and DVD/CD players, etc. will work just fine on every portable device. You can listen to your music and as soon as a call comes in you just switch the headset to your phone and talk.

Hope this clears things up for you.

Best Regards,
