Galaxy Note 3:H::Galaxy Note 4:TR / Note 4 should be a 64-bit handset

Posted by [MENTION=5613499]evleaks[/MENTION]

any idea what this means. .
[Galaxy Note 3 General] jcagara08:
It simply means that it is possible Samsung is wanting to catch up with Apple iPhone 5S 64-bit architecture versus most current android chipset at 32-bit only, nice info by the way thanks man!

MY CSC still stuck at KSA

thanks for the reply. I flashed the rom but my CSC is still KSA. I live in INDIA and phone is from Dubai. so wanted to send my phone for warranty as I have KNOX 0x0. but I wonder if the service centre will entertain KSA CSC. so I wanted to change it to XSG. I did Flash stock N900XXUDND1_N900OJVDND1_XSG.zip via ODIN but my CSC stays KSA. Is there a way to change it to XSG.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] jdomadia:
While Clearing Data from recovery, u will able to see multi csc xsg applied, so clear data & catch from recovery.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mithudas28:
Didn't get you. I flashed XSG via ODIN went to recovery did factory reset

just before Samsung logo. removed battery. factory reset again and rebooted. did you mean this?? MY CSC still KSA

---------- Post added at 01:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 PM ----------

one more question if my

Current binary :Samsung official

System status: Official

Knox warranty void:0

and if my CSC becomes XSA. will the service centre be able find out that the phone had been tampered or it's worth shipping it to Dubai for service

---------- Post added at 01:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:23 PM ----------

Sorry not XSA but XSG
[Galaxy Note 3 General] jdomadia:
After flash let it boot completely than shutdown, go to recovery & clear data, while Clearing data u will be able to see which csc applied, still u r not able to get than try to flash again, actually change of csc problem u r facing because ksa & xsg is in one csc folder, u can try to install app phone info, which has a feature of change csc.

---------- Post added at 12:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:01 PM ----------

Service center will not entertain u if csc is different than xsg, try easy method to install app PHONE INFO google play &; change csc if you succeed it will be very easy method.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mithudas28:
OKAY Needed some info please URGENT

I Have managed to get csc to XSG, rooted my device used root exploere to change the code in the efs/imei folder in the mps_code.dat. now restored my KNOX 0

now the the next question is to all the guys here in this thread . IS XSG the region for sm-n900 in Dubai or are there any others. just need to be sure before sending it for warranty.

United Arab Emirates in About Device

hi all.

I just noticed,, in about device it says United Arab Emirates

TRA ID 0016333/08

TA 0000800

is this normal or it points to some tampering or illegal device

I just flashed XSG CSC firmware and got this.

on other country firmware I don't see this.

after getting the latest update memory card gets corrupted and damaged. .shoes blank sd card..anyone having this issue??
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
I'd recommend you guys get the MJ7 update as soon as possible. It offers performance boost and fixes some bugs (the developer option bug with animations is fixed/ the pen window bug where the icon gets stuck and won't maximize after minimize is fixed/ unlock and lock speeds are improved/ browser performance and overall UI speed are improved/ auto brightness seems to have better and more responsive algorithm). Battery life seems A-OK as well. I'm currently down from 90% to 30% with total 15hours on battery and 5 hrs:30 minutes screen on time with wifi on all the time except around 2 hours on data (check out attached screenshots).

I used Mobile Odin Pro to flash the new firmware and clicked Everroot option so I didn't lose root. I'd recommend this app, it's worth every dollar (you are able to flash anything without needing a PC, you won't lose root after flash). Keep in mind though that Knox will be tripped (0x1) using it, so if you care about that, then it's not for you.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
Note 3's sold in Bahrain does not have any region locks, at least the ones sold in retail shops. I bought one here the first day it was released (25th of Sept).
[Galaxy Note 3 General] galaxys2jax:
Mobile Odin Pro???

can you Flash any custom ROM using this application?:confused:

Knox will be tripped (0x1) using it- If you ready to avoid warranty, then CF-Auto Root will be my choice.:good:

I feel still there are some bugs with the glance view application. I am using S View cover and I get sensor works random (not stable).
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
It's mainly made for flashing stock rom (.tar) but it was later updated to allow flashing zip files, so yes.

Mobile Odin and auto root are both made by the same developer... Chainfire.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] galaxys2jax:
I will give a try CF root and Odin pro after a month. Hope developer will fix Knox trip problem

hey guys..major issue with the gps in latest uae firmware. .anyone facing the same. ?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Life Engineer:
Well since I saw nobody answered.

I have noticed the signal on my G2 was a bit better than my note 3! Not huge difference but small!

The same sadly goes for battery life!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] kk12002:
The latest 4.4.2 Android Firmware update N9005XXUGNG1 has screwed up GPS with its new "improved accuracy" features. I don't use the improved accuracy options as i don't have great signal or wifi when driving and don't want to drain the battery faster than what the in-car charger can provide.

But the basic GPS seems to be much poorer than it used to be.

Using Google maps it often puts me about 20 yards off the road, or on an adjacent road, causing it to reroute often and unnecessarily.

Anyone else noticed this behaviour?

Also, they screwed up landscape mode again when receiving calls in the car dock. We get extremely large buttons covering the photo of the caller rendering caller id useless.

---------- Post added at 10:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:12 AM ----------

As everyone might expect for the Android 4.4.4 update on Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N9005, that might available soon enough before December ends. But before that there’s a new update arriving in Europe that will bump the firmware build number to N9005XXUGNI4. Some reports suggesting that the 4.4.4 update will start to be release in early November but unfortunately the N9005XXUGNI4 is still base on Android 4.4.2 and it’s not November yet. The update has a similarity to the recent released of 4.4.2 N9005XXUGNG1 that brings several UI improvements and bug-fixes and system enhancements.

Yes I can agree that GPS sucks on this update too, its too annoying that it takes a lot of time to lock, it is alway blinking on the notification area!

That user living in Jeddah, which signal do you prefer? cause note 3 LTE pretty much is stable over here in Abu Dhabi!

And anyone rooted the XXUGNG1 firmware yet? Does it trip KNOX this time?:confused:

i have rooted my note with uae ng1 and it doesnt trip knox just follow the towel root method but before that flash uend3 kernel and root it with towel root please note you need a mobile data connection as wifi will not work after rooting flash ng1 firmware back and you are done.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] kk12002:
you mean you can't connect to wifi networks after rooting?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] paras.arora:
no i mean when you will flash uend3 kernel on ng1 firmware for rooting then at that time wifi will not work so you need mobile data to use towelroot and after rooting you can flash ng1 kernel again and everything will be fine.
