[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
Just wanted to compare experiences here.

Before I switched to Note 3 I was mostly using my S2, and seldomly Note 1

(The reason I rarely used Note 1 was due its horrible battery life)

Do Note (no pun intended :) ) I'm comparing reception for AWS band (1700/2100)

So S2 was my main phone until I got the Note 3, the S2 can get great signals even at bad reception areas like toilet / stairwells / elevators inside a building without windows nearby.

However with Note3, I'm sitting right next to a Window and it keeps on losing reception.

:confused: Perhaps it has something to do with its power saving feature in the kernel (I'm not talking about the "Power Saving Feature" in Settings)

The reason I believe this might be the case, is simply due the fact that If I initiate a data session then it'll suddenly get signal again, and my SMS / missed calls will come through just fine, but if I let it idle, then it loses network connection and I'll miss reception.

I'm on the Stock ROM, only rooted, no other changes have been made.

Share your experience.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alom5:
i think i have to agree with you.....my signal is weaker on the note 3 than it was on the note 1 (everything was changed on this one). i'm looking to change the modem as it is still the one that came with it and no updates to the firmware as yet on vodafone uk
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueChris:
I also jumped from s2 to note 3 and I agree, what I have seen also and share it here is that mj2 modem is better in Wifi less power consuming but mj1 is better in carrier signal but more power consuming so I rolled back to mj1.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nakedtime:
Significantly lower power combined with immature software. I'd alai be willing to bet the radios weren't the greateston the s2 right when it came out.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alom5:
When the s2 came out. .. We're taking a few years ago now and things have moved on and would expect it to better now for sure. ...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nakedtime:
This is also the first snapdragon 800 device I believe. If you'd rather not wait for them to get the power correct, you can tune it yourself...

---------- Post added at 05:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:28 PM ----------

Let's not forget about the snapdragon variant of the s3.

Idle power had an extra 0 appended to it and ended up with an idle power draw of 30ma instead of 3ma.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maidangisme:
+1 agreed, S2 still had unbeatable radio/modem. On my S3 had installed custom Kernel to matched with S2.

Any other bugs in PAC aside from CM10.2 ones?

Cm10.2 bugs

- cellular signal stuck at 2 bars (not representative)

- worse wifi strength and stability vs stock.

Does it have the RILJ wakelock of Carbon ROM?

Thanks again!

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] spicemaster:
i dont use stock launcher.. i download and use nova as soon as i flash any rom, so i have not faced the problems mentioned above. PAC rom as always bring forth the best cherry-picked features... but just as i've faced before in every PAC ROM (galaxy nexus, xperia z, etc.) system UI keeps crashing at every notification arrival blaming Tyler each time :D ... perhaps it has something to do with the way i use android... usually at very low LCD density (200) and tablet UI (1000dp) with systembar replacing nav and status bar. so the notificaiton part might be messing things up... its not there when i use the same settings in Paranoid Android, but ofcourse there are tonnes of more options in PAC and that could be the reason for this... but with perhaps Active Disply features like pocket mode n others combined, half the times, i cant use the bloody phone.. i cant turn it back on from sleep because the stupid syetem UI may be stuck in the background and will let the lockscreen be engaged i guess. I end up having hard reboot the phone (press + hold the power button + vol up + vol down) to restart the phone in such situations.. but i've had these problems with all PAC ROMs, and have always ended up moving back to PA or AOKP or carbon for those phones.

Anyway, thanks for bringing PAC to xperia z ultra. the lack of RM choices for this phone was getting on my nerves. hope i get these problems fixed this time around.

It looks great and might be more great in the future, but 10/29 version is just horrible.

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodrigorajao:
Hello friends,

A co-worker just bought a Tab 3, 7-inch, 2013 model. It's 100% stock, not rooted, runs Android, 4.1. He wants to install Portuguese language, but the option isn't showing under "Other languages."

How can we go about making Android portuguese? Should we just install Go Launcher with the Portuguese language pack and be done with it, or is there a native Android solution?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bierma32:
I ve got the Version T210XXAMGE German these are supports Portuguese language

I hope this are helpful.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodrigorajao:
Some Android devices support Portuguese, others don't, even if it's the same device. It really depends on the ROM. He bought his Tab in the US.

If it were mine, I'd just root and install CM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jfenton57:
Purchased release day from BB.

Latest MJ4 seems to for the most part fix the call audio.

The one issue that may stiull force me to go to a different phone is the actual cell signal strength. Not the bars. Actual dbm.

At work, my work coworkers S4 on Sprint sitting next to my Note 3 shows -88dbm. My note 3 is at -110 and constantly drops calls, switched to roaming with the same low signal strength.

At home in a strong LTE area, my wife's S3 pulls -78 dbm and my Note 3 sits merrily at -102. Still makes and receives calls but at times it is garbled and tough to understand folks.

Have factory reset. Update PRL and profile numerous times. Re-provisioned with Sprint.

Is anyone else seeing a low cell signal issue with their note 3?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mvansomeren:
I'm not sure that you can necessarily use other model phones for comparisons. The method used to determine the db may be different. I recall that when the iphone 4 came out there was a big scandal about how the software was reporting higher signal strength that there actually was. This was corrected in a software update.

What really matters is performance. I would try making a call to your wife or coworker's phone that is showing better db's and see if there are any issues during the call. Switch phones and see if there is a difference.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pdaod:
I compared 2 S3s , 2 Note 3s and a S4 all sitting together at a Sprint store. Both S3s showed about -58dbm to -61dbm, the S4 was around -55dbm (it was a bit farther away from the others) and both Note 3s were around -83dbm. My own S3 (with unfortunately a weak battery) was around -61dbm. I moved the phones around to see if the signal changed, but they stayed fairly consistent. I then went to a Best Buy across the street and compared my S3 at -82dbm to their Sprint Note 3 at around -79dbm. All Note 3s had 4.3. I cycled the phones on airplane mode to see if there was any difference and also made sure the Wifi and Bluetooth was off. These inconsistencies are puzzling. Could there be better batches than others? I'm going to try some other stores.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tl3ny:
Hey I was wondering what you found out?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] billiy:
I been happy with my note 3 over the htc one and evo lte. Both htc would drop calls if I went down stairs in my house so would the daughters iphone 4 but the note 3 holds calls just fine even get lte all be it slow. Also noticed my daughter's new 5c can keep a call into the basement and lte. Make me think even more metal phones are a bad idea. Can't compare other phones as we where on t mobile with just Wifi coverage in the house. My house only gets one bar gsm out side and that's at&t tower.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] LuchettoFX:
Hello everybody,

bought an HTC HD2 phone a week ago and tried to install many ROM in it.

Finally yesterday i was able to install a MIUI rom, here it is my details:

Android version: 2.3.7

Kernel version: 2.6.32.15_tytung_r14_callrec_g42b00bc

tytung@ubuntu #133

Everything's find, it is reallly fast but sometimes when i'm on some app it crashes and give me a force close signal.

I just downloaded a few apps in it, just Facebook and Whatsapp. They both crashes after a while giving me force close..

I'd like to solve this problem with your help since this ROM is really fast (i also tried http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1434860 but it gave me the same error - force closes).

Thanks!!!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] LuchettoFX:
Forgot to mention that i also have Google apps(Playstore,gTalk and gMail) they crashes too.

P.S. Tried to edit the initial post but once i click on SAVE edit it doesn works.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ZathuraPL:
Huh, for me it could be wrong partition size before flashing (you mentioned you've tried many ROMs, are you sure you changed settings correctly?) which affects system to close every app because it has no memory to handle it.

Just my opinion, give a feedback about settings, if you set it good, it can be something else.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] LuchettoFX:
That's exactly what i was thinking too. Do you think i should make an hard reset of the telephone and install everything again beginning from where?

Thanks

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] keeperofthecode:
Last time I flashed my phone I used ODIN and a modded AT&T ICS stock rom. This time I used directions from the following site and when I boot to CM after flashing it goes through a process that says optimizing applications then reboots and hangs on the CM logo spiining which I'm assuming means it locking up during boot.

I changed recovery from odin to CWM before flashing which appears to work fine. I restored my backup I made with CWM after installing and my phone is working again. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here or should I try a different ROM? Thanks.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
[MENTION=2921429]keeperofthecode[/MENTION],

The ROM is fine, it's the method that i question.

Once you're comfotably back to stock, this is the easiest way to get from stock to custom recovery on the i777:

Framaroot <-- tool to establish root-access to the device

Mobile Odin Lite(or pro) <-- tool that uses root-access to install...

Custom Kernel <-- a custom kernel (there are many available) installed primarily to provide cwm recovery, but are also commonly used to:

-install a different ROM

-provide additional functionality to the existing ROM

-backup your ROM install

-install a different kernel

-flash cleanup scripts

-and many many other things

The ROMs are usually packaged with their own kernels, so the kernel used above only remains in place until another ROM is flashed, which will overwrite the existing recovery with one specifically designed for the ROM flashed.

This guide will walk you through the steps, but read through the thread carefully to be sure that you understand everything before leaping.

-happy flashing

edit - it seems you already had root and cwm, so I'm not sure what went wrong. Before flashing the ROM, try a ROM cleaning script, or at least:

-factory reset

-format /system

I have a krusell on order at the moment. Will post here with impressions when i get it.

It seemed to be about the best available. There isnt much available for the HTC one. Its a very good phone, but i'm not sure that the sales have been enough for makers like Ballistic or Otterbox to do versions of their premium water resistant cases for it. :(
[One (M7) Accessories] freelycat:
I think due to the front speakers, It's really hard for them to make some waterproof/resistant cases.......

:crying:
[One (M7) Accessories] jkDave:
You would be more happy buying a camera actually meant for this. You can find a waterproof Olympus that takes better pics than the phone for $80-100 on Amazon, or an even better used one on eBay.

Gotta be a better way to have a waterproof case....

---------- Post added at 02:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:30 PM ----------

Has anyone heard or tried Liquipel. Waterproof spray?? Sounds interesting
[One (M7) Accessories] astmacca:
I was really keen on this at one stage. Then Choice Magazine (in Australia) did a review. Lost interest pretty fast at that point.

Its actually not a spray. Apparently they put the phone in a chamber, introduce a vapor , and rack up the temp.

Actually, given the HTC One doesn't come apart i dont think it would be do-able.
[One (M7) Accessories] oilerseberle14:
Try a trident kraken case they are military tested
[One (M7) Accessories] Jimmy2u:
I also want to order the one from Krusell so can you post the pics of your phone with the case so that I can have idea whether that will be a good choice or not.....
[One (M7) Accessories] astmacca:
Its at work at the moment and i'm not there till thursday, but will try and remember.

Having had it now, i'm actually a bit disappointed. I'm sure its waterproof, but the design with the locking "ring halves" means that side buttons are very hard to access. Having had it in hand it doesn't actually seem to be any better protection than one of the waterproof "bag" style cases like Dicapac and makes the side buttons less accessible than on one of those.

Also, in a larger bag style i would be able to use the normal, drop resistant hard shell case as well.

That said, the touch screen in the krusell works ok, and sound through the silicon is fine. Photos through the clear section on the back are ok, but noticeably worse than out of the case.
[One (M7) Accessories] muness:
The rain/wind resistance listed on their website is conspicuously absent from the packaging the One's case comes in. On the plus side, it does feel like it would survive a throw from a moving vehicle now. The UAG though much prettier, smaller and lighter seems almost flimsy in comparison to this tank of a case.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] utahman130:
For those interested in the solution that I somehow didn't see before (I was also sure if I fixed the SU binary, it would fix it)

Rerooting it in Casual on Mac didn't work, I had to go over to my friends and use his Windows computer. I downloaded Causal, loaded Casual into Odin, put my phone into download mode, and it rooted successfully. I was able to use AOPK as it was intended.

I then restored to factory, installed goomanager, installed twrp, backed up my ROM, flashed PAC-Man milestone and gapps 4.3 (10/7/2013), but TWRP gave me an error when it tried to flash the PAC-Man milestone (yes the milestone was for the AT&T GSIII). I then downloaded the latest PAC-Man nightly (10/29/2013) and flashed that and gapps through TWRP. It worked, but some things kept force qutting, including the UI. I factory reset, booted up, and now I have PAC-Man working on my GSIII, fully rooted.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] scottdanpor:
That sucks. Has happened to me but I could boot into recovery. Did you try downloading Supersu from the Play store? That might install the binaries you need.

You wiped cache using recovery mode? You mean the stock recovery or do you have CMW/TWRP installed?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] utahman130:
I can't install the play store. I can't flash any zips because it says I'm not rooted. I wiped cache using stock, can't install cmw/twrp
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gc84245:
Can you use odin to get a custom recovery first, then flash supersu?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Sorry to say, but this seems a bit bleak. It seems like your best choice would be to Odin back to stock and if you're up to it, re-root and try again.

I've tested many Sudoku apps on Windows 8, but most of them are just very awkward to use. Neither mouse nor keyboard were really fun - although the touch input offered so many new possibilities. Partly the sudokus aren't really good, because they often had multiple solutions.

Finally I decided to do this better. I liked the result, but I think, you could judge this way better. Of course I would be pleased to get feedback and suggestions.

[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] thedicemaster:
it looks good, but i see room for a few improvements.

a message comes up at the start of a game, and the button to dismiss it is tiny and tucked away in a corner.

the button should be closer to the center of the screen, and it should be a bit bigger(wider)

the difference between generated squares and filled-in squares is too distracting.

perhaps it will work better if all squares are white, generated numbers are black, and filled-in numbers are dark-grey.

the close and move buttons overlap with the 3 and 6, this looks unprofessional.

i suggest you add a little "titlebar‘ on top like with windowed windows in Windows...

perhaps you could add a "game over" if you fill the field with a mistake.

it took me a while to realize that an extra 3 was the reason the clock didn't stop in my first game.

and last one: a paid version.

the ads are very distracting, and in a paid adfree version you could also use this space to display a permanent keypad.
