So a while back .. out of nowhere , my phone stopped to recognize the internal sd card , I can't access it through any app .. nor does it show up on storage settings , the computer or CWM ..

I've looked up several fixes , but none of them seem to work ..

I tried to reflash the ROM , wiped cache .. And nothing.

I'm running the latest PA (4.3) ..

Thank you for taking the time to read this , hopefully someone will manage to come up with a fix ..

Hi,

Not too sure if this is an issue or just me.

Anyway - XDa mini s, hooked up mt GPS BT device and saved all the settings - fine. When I repower XDA - and go into Bluetooth devices, say after 10 minutes, no device is found. I then have to manually search for it - should the settings not be kept in there?

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] cottageboy:
I know this has been talked about in various threads and I have tried all suggestions...

Can someone please figure this out.

I am:

stock note 3 4.3 software

weather widget is on home screen, set for one hour update

galaxy manager is set up for 1 hour update

I have used both 1.2 software and 1.4 software twice. watch updates initially and then nothing, I have cleared phone caches and reset gear twice as well. Is this a watch problem or phone problem? or is it software on phone or watch?

Please help.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] BarryH_GEG:
The Gear gets it weather feed from the Accuweather widget which exists in two places. Either on the home screen, lock screen, or both. The lock screen weather widget can be accessed by touching the time and then dragging down. The time on the lock screen widget is always the time of last update on my Gear.

Here's how to set the time for the lock screen widget.

You have to have the lock screen security set to "swipe" in order to access the above. I know this is where the Gear gets its weather info because I once set the lock screen weather update time to "never" and the Gear stopped updating.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] jmorton10:
I use no lock screen at all, and I use HDWidgets instead of the stock weather app.

My watch updates just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] BarryH_GEG:
It still is pulling the weather from Accuweather; their logo is on the Gear's weather display. Since Samsung doesn't pre-install the Accuweather app it has to be the widget providing the feed. I use the HD Widgets weather widget instead of Samsung's and my Gear stopped updating the weather when I changed the lock screen weather update time to "never." It's now set "hourly" and that's how often my Gear updates. And the time stamp is always the same on both. Had you ever set the Samsung weather widget before using HD Widgets? I bet whatever that setting is/was is what the Gear is still relying on. I'm pretty sure the settings of the Accuweather widget, either home or lock screen, is what's providing the Gear with its feed.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] 95SKY:
Are you running any power saving software? Does it update your watch when you manual refresh the widget on your Note?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] cottageboy:
No power saving and the watch does not update when I refresh the weather...thanks for your help.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] cottageboy:
just did the latest gear update and now its working,,,It has to be Gear software because I didn't change anything else
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] 95SKY:
That's good to hear. I've had the issue of the time not updating now :(
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] audri5:
I don't know if it will help or not but when my weather wouldn't update I read somewhere to reboot the watch and the phone together. It's all been working fine since then. Can't hurt to try it for the time too.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] 95SKY:
This has worked so far. Fingers crossed it stays that way :) Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SacGuru:
Hi,

I have been having this weird problem with my internet connectivity for my Note 2 today. I dropped my Note 2 this afternoon, and there are luckily no visible signs of damages on the body. Up till a couple of hours ago I was out and using my data plan and there were no problems with the internet. However, now that I have connected to my wifi network, I am not able to open any website in any browser. Apps like facebook, xda app etc also are not able to connect. But some apps, like whatsapp and speedtest.org app are working as usual. There are no problems connecting to my local wifi either, and I can access my router as well - I just can't connect to the internet. I have other android devices as well, and they are having no such problems - all these apps on other devices can easily connect to the internet through the same wifi network.

Now, I think there could be two issues. Firstly, as the phone had been dropped, some hardware problem might've occurred. But as I am able to access internet through some apps (whatsapp etc) from my wifi I don't think this is likely. Secondly, some app/process might be blocking my browsers and the facebook apps access to the internet. But again, this too is unlikely as the browsers and facebook app can access the internet through 3g.

I am very confused as to what to do, and would be really grateful if one of you guys could help me with this.

Sent from my GTN7100 or the Nexus 10, heaven knows.

Those who help noobs go to heaven. True story.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Dr.Tautology:
For anyone interested in data security the ability to encrypt network traffic is obviously important-- especially in light of the myriad of recent well publicized reports of private and government electronic snooping. It is also relevant to mention that to date no one has come close to cracking "TwoFish" encryption which can be used by SSH. With this in mind, consider the following tutorial which describes a method for encrypting all 3g, 4g, and Wi-Fi data, thus beefing up phone and personal data security.

Setting up a global SSH Tunnel on Android phones

This tutorial assumes the reader possesses a fully configured SSH server and rooted phone. In lieu of a server, (eg., the reader only has only a Windows-based operating system), research into CYGWIN is recommended. I use CYGWIN to run my SSH server and I have found that it is the most robust option for Windows users; however, setting this up on Windows can be a daunting task.

Setting up global SSH Tunnel on Android

1. Download 2 apps from the Google Playstore: ConnectBot and ProxyDroid

2. Install ConnectBot and ProxyDroid on your phone.

3. In ConnectBot set up Port forwards for your SSH connection. For "Type" field use "Dynamic (SOCKS)." For “Source Port” use 56001 or any local port not being used. The reasoning behind using port 56001 is this: System Ports (0-1023), User Ports (1024-49151), and the Dynamic and/or Private Ports (49152-65535)

4. Open ProxyDroid and configure as follows:

Host: 127.0.0.1

Port: 56001 (or the port you chose to use in step 3)

Proxy Type: SOCKS5

Global Proxy: Check the box

The above procedure accomplishes several things. First, ConnectBot remotely connects to your SSH server. Next, the ConnectBot connection forwards to the local port 56001. ProxyDroid then redirects all network traffic through the localhost on port 56001. Once you are connected through ConnectBot and ProxyDroid is activated all of your data will be tunneled through the encrypted ConnectBot session. This is an excellent way to set up a global proxy because it does not require manual configuration of any applications to connect through the proxy. You can test the functionality of the connection by opening up your phone browser and performing the Google search: What is my IP. If the proxy is functional you will see the WAN IP of the network of your SSH server. Additional and more thorough testing can be done with packet sniffers such as WireShark.

An application called "SSH Tunnel" is an alternative to accomplishing the above. However, I find ConnectBot and ProxyDroid is more elegant and gives better control-- not to mention being more sophisticated/chic. When correctly performed the ConnectBot and ProxyDroid method encrypts all 3g, 4g and Wi-Fi data on your phone. This is obviously useful for phone access of sensitive materials especially using unfamiliar or alien network connections. With the current proliferation of identity theft via electronic snooping on mobile devices I do not advocate using cellular phones for any banking or electronic transactions without setting up a robust and reliable encrypted connection.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Mordeth_0:
I would also add that you need to run connectbot first then run ProxyDroid. If you do it in reverse Connectbot will have problems connecting.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Utini:
I know that this is an old thread but is there any way to ssh-tunnel wifi traffic only ? Especially "untrusted wifi" traffic only?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Milind.joshi:
how to set up connect bot? please can you provide the information in detail?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rp201:
Okay so I was using this setup of connect-bot and proxy-droid on kit kat. It was working great. I upgraded my phone to lollipop and connectbot would not port forward (the port data would be crossed out after connecting)

I decided to replace connectbot with ssh tunnel in this config

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.sshtunnel

it did not work with global proxy in ssh-tunnel so I used proxy-droid like the OP did and it worked.

so basically substituting connect-bot with ssh-tunnel from the OP

setup:

root required

instead of connect-bot configure ssh-tunnel

host= ip address of ssh server

port= 22

user=ssh username

password=ssh passworrd

check use socks proxy box

set proxy port to 56001

do not check global proxy

now configure Proxy droid same as mentioned by OP

Open ProxyDroid and configure as follows:

Host: 127.0.0.1

Port: 56001

Proxy Type: SOCKS5

Global Proxy: Check the box

this should work great for devices absent of vpn files but have root access

launch and connect ssh-tunnel the proxy-droid. then use a browser to connect to local lan.

I have tested using a rasberry pi running ssh and in sshd_config allowed root access and maybe also tcp forwarding.

I have also tested on dd-wrt 3.0beta with tcp forwarding checked. (ssh is mostly broken/disabled in v2.4)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vsrking85:
is there any other option instead of proxy droid ...because proxydroid is not working on Youwave..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mel2000:
Could an app like SSH Tunnel be used without ProxyDroid? I noticed that with ProxyDroid I was able to cloak my IP address at an IP reveal website, but couldn't do so without it. Unfortunately ProxyDroid requires root, which my current phone does not have. What good would SSH Tunnel be without ProxyDroid?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] szolnoki:
Not solve the problem, when ConnectBot connects first, and I enable SocksDroid second. ConnectBot will drop the SSH connection.

It's tool late, but the problem solved:

On SocksDroid, need select: Per-App proxy and select BypassMode, and add org.connectbot (NOT only ConnectBot) to the App List. With this settings, ConnectBot ALWAYS bypass the proxy.

Tesetd, working satble.

They must be very confused lol it simply doesn't have an nfc receiver.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] tech_head:
Opteka - http://opteka.com/s4batt.aspx.

Doesn't have the NFC antennae from what I can tell in my phone.

Fits fine. Battery does last longer after a few cycles.

I am at 91% after 3h 8m. I have syncing on, along with GPS and BT.

I bought a Note 2 NFC antennae to put in the cover of my phone.

They are supposed to work and I'll gamble at $4.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/281119085157?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

The battery is great though.

Check out the youtube videos on Note 2 NFC in a GS4.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lost_:
^^ Thanks. I'm going to give that a try too. Youtube link. This NFC antenna is combined with a Qi receiver (can't go wrong buying something from a seller named Cutie Honey. LOL)

Opteka 3000 is cheaper on Amazon with free Prime shipping.

The RAVPower is conservatively rated at 2800 but gets good rating.

This AceSoft battery makes a bold claim of 3380 mAh with NFC at stock size, but that's too good to be true for me, though the seller (SodaPop) has a good 4.9 rating.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] robogo1982:
Guys.

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.de/viewitem?itemId=390616563288

PolarCell 2900 mAh battery:

- it HAS NFC

- it's the SAME SIZE AS STOCK BATTERY

- it gives GENUINE 2900 mAh

- it costs ONLY 15€
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] seanvree:
Whoa?! Anyone tried this?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] tech_head:
Can't read anything on that page. It's all German to me.......

Anyway I haven't seen any aftermarket battery that actually does the NFC.

If this one does, I'd be shocked. The Opteka claims it does but my phone won't do NFC.

Anyway, that dual charging and NFC sticker looks cool.

You don't have to worry about either.

I might just spend the $10.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] seanvree:
ANY?! The Anker does NFC beautifully.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] tech_head:
Okay. I haven't tried them all.

But is the Anker 3000mAh??
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] s44:
The whole premise here is silly. If there were some easily sourceable way to get more than 2600mah from that size without dropping NFC, Samsung would have put it in themselves.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ministerjee:
hello

im using the zerolemon 3000 mah battery and I havn't noticed anything different then the stock battery, I only charged it for 8 hours first time as the instructions said and now on my 2nd charge? Is it suppose to get better with time????? screen brightness is all the way down.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
That is a great thought!!!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] tech_head:
COST????

There are tradeoffs. They may not have wanted to add the few pennies cost.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 1454:
It took mine about five or six cycles before it started getting better than stock. I think mine started off about 2700 or so. Not I'm getting about 3100 out of it.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] joshm.1219:
Lol that's not how physics works.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 1454:
It's not about physics. It's about the phones ability to recognize the cutoff voltage of the battery, no it doesn't gain actual capacity(actually, per every cycle it loses capacity). It just gives the phones software a frame of reference for when to shut down at a critical point. Early in the batteries life the phone has to learn the limits of thay battery. That's why our phones store battery stats. I should have worded my response better, but that's not ignoring the physics. The reason that Zerolemons have a higher capacity is strictly because they are larger, albeit slightly, than the stock batteries. They don't use special cells that have more internal energy available to them. This is a slight illustration of what I am talking about. I didn't take any screen shots when it was registering less than 3k, but after every cycle it would increase the frame of reference that the phone is using.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Rambooka:
Can you post a link to this battery app
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] tech_head:
It took a few cycles before the Opteka battery behaved better than stock. Now waiting for the NFL antennae. But 3000mah is pretty cool.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] spamtrash:
Emm... one question, if I could: is the capacity increase by less than 20% really so significant, e.g. does it make any CRITICAL difference?

Let's say that currently your battery lives for 8 hrs. means: 8x60=480minutes. Is the additional 1.5hour really so important?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 1454:
Well, you could think of it like this. If your screen on drain is ~4-600 mAh, then with a 400mAh increase in battery size then you are looking at a 30-60 minutes increase in screen on time. Which is about what I have experienced.

Also, in my experience I was going to bed with my phone about to die every night on the stock battery. Now when i go to bed I usually have about 10-13 % left. Pretty much like clockwork.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] spamtrash:
hi, I did not asked for it. I have asked if this is CRITICAL, justifying the purchase.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 1454:
I would say yes, it is critical. Given I can go to bed with a phone that hasn't been charged, vs before I would have to charge at some point during the day to make it till bed time.

If I understand the question.

Lion battery like being charged. Its bad for your battery to let it drop too low.

Theres good proof of this on the iPhone forums wheres an app tells you how much your batterys been charged and how much capacity you have vs theoretical capacity. The people who let their phones die had lost battery capacity of around 20-30%.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 1454:
While you maybe right, and I'm no battery expert, I'm to the understanding that li ion battery's are more dependent on cycles than discharge depth. I could be wrong, but that's how I understood it. That being said, if you are right in not worried about it because the battery cost me 10 dollars and works for my situation right now. If it prematurely dies, which it very well may, I'll buy another one assuming they are still around.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] imlgl:
Can't seem to find it in the play store :/
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] tech_head:
Actually for lithium ion, there is no memory effect, but never letting the battery discharge like some do in a laptop, is not good.

Discharging fully has no negative effect on battery life. The number of charge cycles it the primary indicator.

Apple recommends removing laptops from the charger and letting them run on battery power until depleted at least a couple of times a month.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lost_:
The "cutoff voltage" (your term) is the same for all batteries. It doesn't vary from one to another because it's the phone reading of the battery voltage that tells us how much there is left through the % battery status.

The reserve capacity (mAh) is how much current over time a specific battery is capable of giving before it gets down to that low voltage level that the phone recognizes as 1%. At the end of the day, it is physics, power = current * voltage (my very simplistic explanation, the EE among us can explain better).
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 1454:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.bmw.pro&hl=en
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ImNotTheDroidUrLooking4:
Not from the evidence I have seen. The cycle count was displayed and people with similar cycles counts (around 300) had varying charge capacity. The worst results came from those that let their battery's get very low between charge.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 1454:
I know how power works and v=ir.(ME, but we had take electrical classes too.) The point I was trying to make is the software has to be calibrated to correctly read the limits of the batterys capacity. When I refer to calibration, this is what I'm referring to. Also, v does change. Just as an example, on this battery it's limits are as shown above. IIRC my stock battery was 3.5 v to 4.2 v, vs 3.47 to 4.33. As you said, and I was trying to illustrate, the software reads this v to determine its levels.

http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries

As batteries age they don't charge to as high of a voltage. The higher the capacity of the battery, generally speaking, the greater the voltage spread. At least that is my experience.

The calibration cycles measure that voltage drop w.r.t time. That allows the software to saturate the battery to it's maximum ability. It took multiple cycles before this battery would fully saturate. Hopefully I got the right terminology out this time.
