[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuickInfo:
I go the SM-N006 version of the Note 3, but whenever I try to go into download mode, it flashes "factory mode" then shows something in Chinese. Tried to go into recovery, but it shows the the broken android. Any help? See the attached picture for the "download mode".

That bezel looks very thick to be a genuine GN3. Mine's not white, but it doesn't have that sort of pattern on it either. Sure it's not a clone?

Ordered this for $3.41

Phone feels nearly stock with it on. Exactly what I was looking for in that it lifts up the camera so that you can set it down without worrying about scratches.

The included screen protector is the same as the $10 spigen version.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] hoyoonbid:
Any link where you purchased it? Did you get your on your hands yet? Does it really look like in the video? Sorry to many question, but it seems to be the one that I was looking for.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] seoulbrova:
I got it today and yes it looks exactly like it does in the video. The macro photos of it made it look as thick as other plastic cases but this is definitely the thinnest case I've come across. It's pretty much scratch protection and keeps the phone light and thin.

It's on Sun sky online.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] razzbaronz:
I don't see an all black case in the slim options. Is it one of these?

There you go. They have other colors as well. With this case on it feels like a naked phone with protection on the sides. I'm guessing it is .2mm thin
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] haza12d:
Where did you get the other case? The "rear slim" that you mentioned near the end of the video?

I have a bell Samsung s4 that I want to sim unlock.

I tried to buy a code from unlock code Republic, but was told they were unable to generate a code.

I tried the *#0011# method, but can't get into the UMTS.

Is there a better way? At this point I just need the phone to work now.

Please help.

I recently purchased the Red Samurai controller from GameStop but returned it due to the controller being super stiff and not like a ps3 controller. I then remembered I had a OTG cable from my old HTC Evo LTE and tried it out on my Note 3 with my ps3 controller and games such as Dead Trigger and Shadowgun run super smooth. Sure its not wireless but this method is equivalent to actually playing the ps3.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] stanglifemike:
Wrong! Sixasis app + PS3 controller = AMAZING!! Hahaha :D

No wires involved! Why wouldn't you just use the app instead of an OTG cable!?!? Makes no sense no me

Not rooted.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] stanglifemike:
WHAAAT!!??? I would suspect that you're into modding your phone since you're a member of XDA, so why haven't you rooted your GN3 yet!? You normally root and flash your phones, right??

SwiftKey'ed from my White Sprint Note 3 via XDA Premium
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] loopers:
easy there turbo.... some of us aren't super hardcore... and while we know quite a bit would rather wait til root has an easier method... and has proven the test of time.... i think we all have a right to choose for ourselves.. not everyone on xda is rooted.... there is plenty to be learned here besides rooting your phone.. i've rooted every single phone i've had but i haven't rooted the note 3 yet... and probably won't for at least another month til the devs get things smoothed over and i'm assured of some things.... devs here are the best..... but keep in mind.. to each its own :p
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] BigMosley:
Thank you!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] stanglifemike:
To each their own? Think for themselves? NO, every one must do as I do!!!! Right NAOWZ!!!!!!!

Lol, I never said he HAD to root his phone, couldn't think for himself, or anything of that nature. Was just simply asking a question. Also, there is a LOT to be learned here besides rooting! I think learning how to root is probably the least significant actually!

I do wonder what you mean though, about "devs getting things smoothed over"? Rooting the GN3 is super simple, just like most Samsung phones are. 3-4 years ago, some Android phones were more challenging to root within the first month after launch, but the GN3 is very simple. What do you think the devs need to "smooth out"?

And that's actually a supercharger in my avatar picture, not a turbo. You were close though, so good try.

Lolol!! You need someone else to answer questions for you, really? And you thank them for that, really? Sorry, I didn't see the "Kiddie Section" sign hanging over the door. I'll step back out now, and no one even needs to hold hand, YAY!!

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] BigMosley:
I created this thread about the topic above. The best thing you could do is keep your smart a$$ comments to yourself. No I am not rooted (as if it was any of your business to begin with), did I miss the memo that everyone on XDA must have superuser permission? This phone is not even a month old what's the rush. Also, No the other member was not answering for me he just beat me to it. Your questions/comments are irrelevant to this thread and completely asinine and they show your ignorance. If you are not contributing to this thread (which you definitely are not) keep your mouth shut and move the f**k on.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] stanglifemike:
Hahaha, sorry you got your feelings hurt!

You created the thread about what topic!? To state your opinion, that you like using the PS3 controller through an OTG cable? OK, well I stated my opinion that I don't like using a wired PS3 controller on my Android devices. I did NOT get off-topic. I simply stated my opinion about using a PS3 controller, which is what the OP is about! And yea, you missed the memo that everyone must be rooted. Lol, did you EVER see me say that every one must be rooted, or that there was a memo going around? Didn't think so. Lol. Best thing I could do is keep my smart A comments to myself, eh? Lol. Feel good flexing your e-muscles? Hahahaha :D

So I should be contributing to this thread? What do you need contributed? You need others coming in here giving you high fives that they also use an OTG cable to play their PS3 controllers, because rooting isn't polished enough for them, and the devs need to smooth things out? Yes! All devs should bow and smooth things out for you! Lol

So here's what I've said in his thread (in your mind anyway) :Everyone MUST be rooted. There IS a rush on everyone rooting. XDA sent out a memo that every one must root. It's my business as to whether or not you're rooted. Oh, now I really did make irrelevant and asinine comments, true story. Anyway, I've got better things to do than reply to comments about you making up things that I've said. Carry on kiddos!

Oh, I'm gonna share this with some friends. Maybe even some public social groups! Just to show how "irrelevant and asinine" I am. Hahaha. Off-topic (again by me!), Thanks for my daily laugh!! :D

come on....you know the way you came across was extremely immature and over the top..... lets just leave it at that.... and you acting like your not ticked off when you reply really is just reverse psychology your using on yourself... you have many helpful posts... don't let this one be one that a moderator sends you a friendly message on :) ..... lets all just get along and be mature about it.. if you want to be immature start your own thread.... this thread unfortunately is basically a tossed thread so i'd suggest to the op to just do the stand up guy.. (mature person) and just ask the mod to delete this thiread before he sends a full page of unwitted immature jokes about how our feelings are hurt... its just a waste to the forum servers.... and i honestly don't know why i'm typing this..... basically because i treat people the way i would like to be treated.. and i just wanted to state that i think you was a bit over the top.. in the end op can stand for himself.. again as for the thread.. its just drama now less a mod can clean it up
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] stanglifemike:
Lol, I was "immature and over the top "? You did read my first 2 replies didn't you? Now I'm using reverse psychology on my self? It did tick me off with the other members reply, I'll happily admit that! I was just saying that the Sixasis app and using a PS3 controller wireless is a better choice/decision. If that makes me "immature and over the top", then so be it. Now there's 3 of you thinking that I shouldn't state my opinion, nice. Guess I should just let everyone who reads this thread believe that an OTG cable is their best option with the GN3. Devs obviously can't figure out root with this phone, not good enough anyway.

Anyway, no one quote me anymore, and I won't get any emails about this thread. I'll happily step away from this thread for good! I've seen some of the screen names in this thread for years now, and have never thought negative of any of them in even the slightest way. Just realizing that an opinion which differs from the OP is definitely not wanted in this thread! Anyway, I have no hard feelings towards anyone on here. I'm out

Holding off myself .... Rooted and modded the poop out of my Galaxy S. Taking it slow this time around!
[General Questions and Answers] demonunter:
Hello to all! Sorry it's a bit long.

About two weeks ago my friend looked at my camera pics. After he gave the Galaxy s4 back to me I decided to look at them two. But the folder was gone! I tried restart, checked file manager for DCIM and everywhere else, but no camera pics/videos. 2 months of pics and vids....

Then I tried to use Android recovery software but it needed Mass Storage Device connection, which is no more. So I found this wonderful guide, thanks to Wartickler! forum . xda-developers .com / showthread . php?t=1994705

I had a problem with it but about 3 days ago I at last managed to make the RAW file, mount it, and use recovery programs with it (tried Recuva and Puran). The progs found many many files, among pics and vids. NOT A SINGLE ONE FROM THE CAMERA BEFORE THE VANISHING OF THE CAMERA FOLDER (but some of the pics I took after it, and were not deleted). I tried to use the phone and get new info on it as least as I could (only took about 15 photos) to not overwrite the old info and pics.

Even If some, I really doubt ALL of the old photos and videos were overwritten. I am not even sure that there even was deleted info found, at least not in a readable file type for me. All whatsapp pics sounds, some vids, none were deleted before, many G+ profile pics...

What can I do??

I really want the photos and videos back....

Thank you xda users!

Have you checked the LOST.DIR folder on the root of your sdcard/internal memory? Once after I flashed a custom rom for testing, recovery could not find the backup I made before that. I had the same free space in my internal memory so after looking a bit I found that the LOST.DIR folder was taking much space and that all the backup files where inside it with a random name and no extension. Not sure if that's your case but just give it a try.

Bought a poetic bumper ( white & Grey) along with an full body Extreme Guard). Cost about $12 shipped and looks great. Minimal Look. Great protection
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] UponFirstListen:
I love mine, but the cutout for the headphone jack is terrible. Looking for something similar that will actually allow me use a pair of headphones/auxiliary cable.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] vegabyson:
As long as you use the stock headphones you won't have any problems. Anything other than that and this case may not be fore you
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] imablackhat:
This case has the exact same look even with the buttons as the bear motion on amazon. I wonder who is copying who.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ukic:
+1 Lol. I am actually using the Bear Motion one from amazon :)

EDIT: You need to push the power button harder compared to the volume buttons. I am still searching for a better bumper...
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] stanglifemike:
Who wants to use the crappy stock headphones though, when there are hundreds and hundreds of MUCH better options available

I will say though, just use a nice bluetooth stereo headset and this issue becomes nonexistent! :)

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] AssassinsLament:
Mine was like this also until I took the case off and broke in the power button a bit. Basically, with the case off, just press the power button on the case in really hard up to ten times to break in the rubber. The button was better after that, guess the "hinge" part of the button was too stiff.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] imablackhat:
My power button is great. Didn't have to do any of that.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gnik luap:
I don't mind the stiff response from the power button, I've had some that pressed too easily and turned on/off in my pocket or accidentally wrote I was holding a phone.

I mostly leave the phone on and wake it with the home button or by pulling out the S pen.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] vegabyson:
I don't mind the power button being stiff at all. It makes sure you don't wake the phone by accident
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] vegabyson:
I just saw the bear motions case and its the same case. Did you get black or white? My only issue with the white is it may get dirty and I'll have to send it back
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] UponFirstListen:
The verizon model did not come with head phones. Still looking for a good bluetooth that does not cost too much.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ukic:
For $5 just get 2? :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] CZroe:
Neither. They are both sourcing them from the same supplier that allows their clients to brand the product.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] CZroe:
It's not stiff, it's mushy. Saying "it's harder to press" actually means it's harder to activate/trigger. The material squishes and tilts instead of pushing straight down into the original button making it require much more travel to activate reliably.

as the title says did that Korean ICS update ever happen? do we have true stable with proper kernel/drivers ICS yet for our LG p999?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] afung01:
I think the Korean version is the same as p990
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s32ialx:
Yeah it's pretty dated info that's why I'm curious because all these hackfests still around but no stable ICS? I can only assume LG pulled a fast one and never released it or they did but every dev stopped developing for p999 becuase there were so many nice ICS builds for my phone but all with there only little problems like the launcher "trebuchet" and system always crashed on domination's builds

What do you mean?????? that I can install a p990 ICS for proper HwA etc?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] afung01:
I am not 100% sure whether the Korean version is the same as p990, but it is definitely a variant of optimus 2x that has a different model number than p999. Therefore, its roms will not work on our phone.

I'd love to believe that... but that article was written a little over a year ago. I'd think that if it was a possibility to get fully functional ICS on our g2x's with thus source code, it would've been done by now. I am starting to lose hope that we can run ICS or JB without a single hitch as our mighty devs have just run into the same problems it seems even looking from different angles.
