has anyone used a mate 8 and compared it to the note 5? The rumors have me losing faith in samsung, i dont want a note if its only in edge form!

I'm posting with a cell phone..XDA lab...so forgive me if I don't have the search accessible on here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Tmobilefan906:
Dude. U r ignorant. No need to be crass. I've modded tons of devices, and I'm not asking to have my hand held. I was asking how to flash as I see numerous zips to install. This is my first note product, so forgive me for being cautious. Some ppl I swear.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
BOTH OF YOU, KNOCK IT OFF! Now!

We don't insult others in here, which is why people come here. We welcome everyone, noob or expert. If you can't behave like adults then the mods will be asked to step in. No one wants that.

Wrecker, you know better than to behave like this. Personally, I'm surprised.

Tmobilefan, I've explained where to find the download links and suggested you read the instructions on how the installation works. It's very easy but the options are not typical. I'm confident you can install this ROM. It's a great ROM.

Please, refrain from insulting or encouraging misbehavior. In this thread we pride ourselves on helping others. Trading jabs and egging on insults isn't encouraged here, unless you KNOW the other user well. Neither of you seems to know the other.

If you have questions then feel free to ask. However, the thread for Tweaked has 99% of the answers in regards to the ROM. As wrecker alluded to, in here we discuss random stuff like new phones and cool happenings. Feel free to join in.

NOW...let's get back on to right path.

I was asking about the cell issue as calls aren't coming in when screen is off . they come in sometimes when screen is on. OK, this is why I asked on how YOU flashed this. I wasn't being lazy nor asking for a hand hold. Sometimes data (net) fluctuates off and on...not bad, but when calls can't come in, I was jw. Thanks again buddha
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
Installed via TWRP. I apologize, I wasn't sure if you were asking that and assumed you were asking about how to install it. It's not uncommon to have a noob ask how to install.

You install this the same way you install any other ROM.

Now it very well could have been a bad download, which can cause a bad installation. One thing you could try for troubleshooting is to reinstall it, and even redownload the ZIP.

Hmmmmm, the call issue could be a modem issue...maybe a kernel.

BOOM shalakalaka!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Tmobilefan906:
Which modem do u recommend?

Here is my specs
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Tmobilefan906:
I was referring to the mods

---------- Post added at 02:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 AM ----------

thats another reason why i asked how u flashed it.. i was concerned about the kernel and modem. tyvm
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
Oh, I don't do mods. I prefer stock and clean.

It doesn't install a kernel, which is a beautiful thing that it does...or doesn't do. You can flash a kernel of your choice, test them and see which works best for you. Now, I'm wondering if your kernel is conflicting and causing it to go into deeeeeeeep sleep and not alert you. That's something you can test by flashing a different kernel.

Looks like you mostly up to date on the firmware but I see an "FOL1" there that could be causing the issue. Might try ODINing FOB6 to make sure everything is on par.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Tmobilefan906:
Which tar file? Flash in Odin....and I won't lose root? I hear that fob6 is sufficient.

---------- Post added at 04:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:10 PM ----------

I may see a prob..my baseband doesn't match my latest firmware.....could that be it? Bb is fob6 and firmware is fol1. I'm confused. Lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
I tried no root for a month and the curved screens, I'm not interested in either at this point. If Samsung is locking them down and going curved only I'm done with them. I just sold my verizon S6 edge and note 4 edge so I definitely tried hard to like them. Anyone sticking around for this potential locked bootloader curved screen mess?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cuezaireekaa:
You know, I've enjoyed my s7edge a lot these months... But I think I've enjoyed my note 3 rooted on DU and s7 ports a lot more. But dammit I love the look of the curved screens and how the image on the display looks like it pops out at you and rolls off the screen.

With that said, I have smoother scrolling and faster transitions on the note 3 rooted, than I do on my higher specd s7.

So yeah, I'm also in this camp... I want that note 7 but I just don't know at this point because it NEEDS and unlocked BL. so.....Might just sell the s7 but some worthy has to come along and the htc10 and Nexus 6p just won't do it for me. So for now I'm just swaping between the two.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
This is were i encourage you to go to the thread and search for those answers about ODINing and rooting. A lil research goes a long way.

But no, you shouldn't lose root. You will, however, lose your apps and such.

It's the same process you did to root initially, but updating the firmware.

Locked out, no thanks.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
You think samsung pay is the reason they are locking the US bootloaders nowadays? I just sold 2 unrootable verizon s6 edge this morning. Samsung pay is garbage in my opinion compared to root. I may be done with samsung for good, I cant stand non rootable phones.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cuezaireekaa:
I really can't put my finger on it why, but I lean more towards that pay theory, and them just trying to cover their asses with the banks, and security. I think they were maybe getting a lot of unrecoverable hard bricked or Knox tripped devices. But more so, they were dealing with devices that could never use pay again soo...... But why the other models are unlocked is beyond me, so it has to be sampay.

But yeah, fekk pay, over root. Especially when you've taken root for granted. I miss it now.

Once I see that note 7, I have to display some serious restraint because it is going to be my dream phone I already know it. I hope Nexus kills it this year and T-Mobile gives us a chance to jump to it and finance, but if not, I'll just have to spend a massive chunk of change and get thrown in the doghouse.. This this THIS would make me happy if we all just end up kicking it in an off topic thread IN THE NEXUS forums. Maybe it'll be a tweaked/Dwith thread. Maybe it'll be in an "former Samsung addicts never looking back" thread. :laugh::fingers-crossed::victory:

I think it's gonna be buuhbye samslug for me though next round.

Dammit I hope the note 7 sucks and overheats and drains horribly so I won't need a whaaambulance when I decide against it.

But it won't. -__-
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
Personally, if i have to pull my phone out to pay them i can pull out my card to pay.

It's not a reason to not unlock the bootloader.

We will have to wait and see what comes out and about. It could just be rumors.

Do leaks ever confirm a locked bootloader? Or do we have to wait until they get delivered before we find out?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
Ugh, probably have to wait. Or they'll tell us just before the release, dropping our hopes into and endless pit.

While this is pretty cool and of course we'd rather have freedom to go to any carrier with our paid off device, I almost spit out my coffee thinking this was a 'bootloader unlocked device' they're talking about. Now that wouldve been amazing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
That's exactly what I'm hoping for, I guess we will have to wait and see. It will tell us who's lying for sure, t-mobile or samsung.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:

A bit disappointed, so Note 7 might be the biggest deal.

BOOM shalakalaka!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cuezaireekaa:
Yup I was hoping HTC would make a damn great phone. And it very well may be when it's released but it's ugly.

So running cmthemes for me isnt that important. Now that there is root on s7edge, I hope there is hope for note 7 but not holding my breath. It's an engineering kernel we had to use to allow and push of SuperSU to our system. Thx chainfire. And it's a beautiful thing to be rooted again..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mscion:
I hope that the Note 7 has a bigger screen than 5.7. Having curved edges on both sides is going to take away usable space for writing with the stylus. If Samsung keeps same length to width ratio, I'd just prefer the screen to be flat. Most of the edge stuff seems like a gimmick to me anyway. Many of the edge apps could be usable on a flat screen and don't depend so much on the curvature of a screen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
I couldn't agree more, it makes the screen feel extremely unprotected even with a case as well. Plus it's definitely harder to hold and there are always random unintended contact no matter how careful you are holding those dual edge screens.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cuezaireekaa:
Do you use a case on your edge? I have to because like you said, it's hard to hold without touching the edges and all. But with a case (I use a very thin minimal one at that) I don't have any issues ever. It gives a bit of a lip.

But I wouldn't take the edge out of the house without a case anyway. It's like carrying a sheet of glass
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mscion:
It's probably not true but, hey, I can dream...

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Is-the-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-7-sporting-a-6-inch-screen_id82833
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
I used the same case on my s6 edge that i have on my note 5. Black on black incipio dualpro, i had the s6 edge for a month the case helped a ton but maybe since the phone was smaller my fingers just got the edges more often. I dont think the dual edge will be the dealbreaker I think the locked bootloader and snapdragon will seal it for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cuezaireekaa:
Yeah I feel you about the bootloader... Heck I don't even want to get the note now just because having the s7edge with root was what I wanted all along and now I have it with a tekhd rom on it running flawlessly. I am content till there is some progress and more info on the note7

---------- Post added at 11:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 PM ----------

6inchs would be ideal for sure. Since curved makes the device feel so much smaller, it would be perfect imo
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
Any chance they come out with an unlocked note 7 right away like the s7/s7 edge unlocked that just came out?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
One of my (9) note 7 cases will be arriving today so I'll be able to compare it to the (14) note 5 cases I have already!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] guaneet:
Apparently t mobile will be opening pre-orders next week before the announcement!

http://www.sammobile.com/2016/07/22...t-mobile-next-week-ahead-of-august-2-release/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
My guess is the phone is 3mm thinner in width NOT depth and 1mm shorter and 10 grams lighter. It might be slightly thinner depth wise simply because the camera lens sits more flush than the note 5.

***The note 5 fits in the case and it's a little bit tight on the sides and loose on the top and bottom***
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
Im a little surprised less than a week away and no US carriers are taking pre-orders? All 9 of my cases will be here by this weekend. What is the case selection/pricing like when you go to the local carrier store or big box store the day a new Note arrives? Thanks guys I have never been with a carrier or purchased a phone from one especially not on launch day thats why Im asking the experts here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] guaneet:
I think it's just announcing it, pre orders usually take place after the showcase. Rumor has it t-mobile was supposed to take pre orders this week.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
Im definitely not getting it i just want to sell some cases? I love my note 5, no need to upgrade for me. I don't need an iris scanner, curved screen, waterproof, expandable storage, or a snapdragon with a locked bootloader.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
Meh, it's not worth the upgrade. I'll hold out for the Note 9 next year. Ha ha

BOOM shalakalaka!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mscion:
Still not sure. Coming from Note Edge it's a bit of a bigger upgrade for me. Performance wise should be much better. Also will have 1GB more ram which will help multitasking. Camera should to be better in lower light. Basic model should have 64GB memory which is good too. But I was hoping for a bigger screen or, actually, a wider one. Not a big fan of 16:9 ratio. Non removable battery may be a problem for me. We shall see!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
You are correct that skinny screen with two useless edges is really going to squeeze use able screen real estate.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mscion:
Exactly! This would be an epic failure on Samsung's part. Would be a shame cause they do a lot of other things right. Have to wait and see the real thing to know for sure.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
According to the latest leaked size specs the note 7 will be 2mm thinner, a hair taller,thicker, and lighter. It doesn't show up yet in the phone size comparisons but I'm sure the true screen real estate will have decreased due to the edges. I think the note edge and note 5 have different but very similar amount of total actual usable screen real estate. At the expense of a big physical size difference (width). And I think other than IR blaster, removable battery, and storage the note 5 is a huge upgrade.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mscion:
Can't do Note 5. Even assuming battery life is good. I need expandable memory or I'll be jumping through hoops to keep things working all the time. For example I have 8GB storage on sd card used up with one linux distribution (Fedora) I chroot. Photos, music, videos, TWRP backups ect. I need my space man... lol.Also, I don't use the edge feature on my Note Edge because I'm on a ported rom that is more like Note4/S6 Lollipop. There is a new rom I plan to check out shortly that is MM Note 5/S7 based. Also the Note Edge usable screen width is 75mm, which I really like.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
What a waste by samsung, comparing the note 5 case and note 7 case the curved sides are about half as deep as the note 4 edge or s6 edge. They really went half in on this and should have just done flat and curved models.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
I noticed earlier that it wasn't like the edge. It's just going to be a curved glass, no room for practical use.

BOOM shalakalaka!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cuezaireekaa:
While I'm absolutely still in love with the curve on my s7e, (and I do admire the amoled beauty of the curves often) it is a less functional edge than the s6e+. But for how I use it, that's OK.

But in the case of the note series, I'd have rather seen a flat panel that has almost zero bezel, but is still chunky enough to hold comfortably; than the "illusion" of near-zero bezel, with a "non functional" curved screen. We already have an s7e for those casual types! Make the note a diff beast altogether that benefits the spen/drawing/note taking functionality of the note series w/s-pen, and the power hungry crowd like yesteryear Samsung. Smh.

I think that's what I think about it. Been a long day..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
I just mean i am disappointed that they didn't try use the curve.

I still think it looks pretty.

BOOM shalakalaka!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
I'm very disappointed threes no cheese to go with your wine.

HEY-OH!!!![emoji2]

BOOM shalakalaka!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mscion:
Won't know for sure till tomorrow but looking at the most recent images, seems like the the drop off along the edge is much sharper than the first Note Edge so that the usable front facing screen space is probably about the same as the Note 5. Hard to tell if the edge portion will actually have any functionality. Perhaps could be used as a night clock or stock ticker or some similar minimal functionality. So if the effective screen space is the same as Note 5 I might consider it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
I compared the note 5 and s6 edge+ screens online and after cropping out the edges it seems ~10% less usable screen space in my unofficial estimate. I hope I'm wrong but I consider the edge a waste of space 99% of the time after you get done playing with the few apps for a few minutes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:
More than likely the case.

BOOM shalakalaka!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
The cases are the exact same size (note 7 is a few mm thinner) and from the pics the top and bottom bezels look the same as usual so adding the edges to the equation tells me 10% of the screen just disapeared to make it look pretty in pictures.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mscion:
Sounds reasonable. I think the note 7 usable screen area will be a bit better than s6 edge + but slightly worse than note 5. Just hoping it's tolerable and bootloader not locked...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
I agree, but lets look at this realistically it's an S7 edge with a stylus that means they copied everything, locked bootloader and all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dirtybudha:

BOOM shalakalaka!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 954wrecker:
Note 5 is an S6 with a stylus and no IR blaster.
