I am guessing you have one of the devices that isn't updated by Google, instead by Samsung. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1728555 <-- more info there.

Get around that by flashing your device to yakju or takju by flashing the factory images.

I'm looking for an app that I can make schedules for when an app should sync. I use drop box right now with camera uploader and I hate that it syncs all the time. I want to be able to have it scheduled so that it syncs at night when its plugged in rather than all the time cuz it kills my battery.

I know I could use Google photos but I have 75gb of free space on my drop box.

Now is it possible to use odin to flash the dev restore to the retail version?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] leyvatron:
I heard the DE is water proof.

Can you dip it in a bucket of water?

Thanks.

HA! J/k dont do it.

Now, maybe we can unlock ours with the DE software.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] magneticzero:
I would buy a DE phone...but I want it in white!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] k.electron:
any company with half decent security measures wouldnt allow it to be that easy, but then this is samsung and verizon we are talking about, so im actually hopeful for this.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] polo2883:
Considering they left SELinux permissive on... I am hoping they screwed up big time and will allow this...

All my Androids have always been rooted soon after getting the phone.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] FAUguy:
Is the Dev version rooted and bootloader unlocked? Or is it just the bootloader and have to root it yourself?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] SeanPlunk:
My understanding is that it's only bootloader unlocked and needs to be rooted.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
You are correct.

Not a chance this would happen. Samsung knows without proper security checks we could so they'd lose revenue.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] zepfloyd:
How exactly? A Note 3 sale is a sale, it's the same device. It costs them pennies practically in extra work. They don't care from that end. It's whatever their contract is with Verizon that matters.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Well i sold mine for less than the dev edition and so samsung made the difference i paid. I know most people sell their retail ones for less than full price. And because i bought two phones so they made two sales, regardless if i sold one, they still got two phone payments.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] zepfloyd:
That makes sense on a personal level, but realistically the number of people doing that is statistically insignificant. I have a hard time believing anyone's 'developer edition' device has sold much more than a rounding error.

Hi

Just to let you know that I tried my LG G2 in my Nexus 4 Brodit Car mount (with bumper size) and it fits with smart/case and charges.

Might come in handy if you've switched from a Nexus 4 and save you some £'s

http://www.brodit.com/product.html?id=512488&pn=prod&brand=LG&model=Nexus 4

Will post pic soon - won't let me attach so here's a link to photo

[G2 Accessories] vietnam100:
Thanks for the tip. But you could describe it more accurately what did you do?
[G2 Accessories] Esspee_London:
Is this a secure fit without a bumper? I know passive holder is already available, so I can only assume active holders will follow soon.
[G2 Accessories] 1979crazy:
Hi, I've only tried it with the flip case on and it fits very snuggly in. I imagine without the case will work fine but will test later.

As the micro USB port is central charges fine s well.

I haven't modified anything to make this work.

Stuck an NFC sticker on the holder and Torque kicks in every time the phone is mounted
[G2 Accessories] voldor:
Hello what do you mean by '(with bumper size)' ?
[G2 Accessories] 1979crazy:
The nexus 4 mount came in 2 sizes, one for use with a bumper and one without. Mine was the with bumper size.
[G2 Accessories] 1979crazy:
The G2 fits very tightly with the flip case and is a bit wobbly with no case but it won't fall out etc
[G2 Accessories] voldor:
Do you use it with your own case like a quick window one?
[G2 Accessories] voldor:
Hello just a quick report to provide feedbacks on the following configuration :

LG G2 Official Quick Window + Brodit Nexus4 with bumber version : All fits well. The case opened allows when in the brodit support to charge and see your Full screen without any issue (if you accept to take 30 secs to take care of the power supply connector when inserting the phone in the support)

So on 4.3 on my N4, all I had to do was put an mp3 in the alarms folder and do a reboot. After that, it would show up in the alarm notification menu when setting a new alarm.

For some reason, on my N5 it won't show up. I've tried putting it in the Alarms folder, in the Ringtones folder and in my Zedge folder, but it still will not show up in the menu selection for alarm sounds.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] mgm1979:
Just got my HDX yesterday - my first Kindle-anything, although my wife and son both have KFHDs.

So, I'm tinkering with this thing, and downloading some Prime content, etc. ES File Explorer, nor windows explorer (when connected via USB) can seem to find any of the media I've downloaded. Is this in some hidden/secret folder location somewhere? Do I have to be rooted to see/access it that way???
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] generosity21:
Amazon offering Prime downloads is a pretty huge deal. As far as I know, no other competing streaming service allows this. In order to make this possible, the videos are in a hidden folder structure, not part of the accessible memory, and almost certainly encrypted. You would need root to even see the files, and you probably would not be able to move them off the device and still use them. As far as I know, root has not been achieved yet (thought I am just now catching up in this forum).

If Amazon thought you would be able to find and copy off movies and TV shows from the device, they would not have allowed downloads.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] mgm1979:
Makes sense, when you explain it that way - I wasn't thinking like that, I guess...I downloaded 6 movies last night, and chewed up 45gb, so 64gb is going to be a problem - they're going to need to put out 128gb one, I would think. Maybe at a $479 price point? (for the 7"), and $649 for the 8.9"???
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] cdub50:
I use Plex on my home machine and stream the movies to my kindle that way I dont have to chew up space.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Montisaquadeis:
But does that work with Amazon content? That is the question. I use PS3 Media Server on my PC to stream my Legally Ripped Bluray movies over the network to my dlna enabled PS3 Bluray player and my android devices via skifta.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] mgm1979:
That's fine if I have a Wi-Fi connection, but the whole purpose for downloading content is for those times when Wi-Fi is unavailable, or spotty.

You are not annotating the actual PDF but are making your notes on a layer added above the PDF which is stored separately.

There may be a way to export in iAnnotate, but that app is horrible right now so i wouldn't bother.

Now with all this fancy new KNOX security, i try to find some useful aspects of it. Even my old notebook can have a bios lock and without that you cannot turn on the thing and no kind of reset can remove it. Are there similar stuff for the s4?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
Not possible. A big flaw imo.

Only sort of a solution is to cook a custom rom with some sort of protection build into it. So that when people wipe or do a factory reset, it still has your settings.

Hi guys,

I modded the Stock Google Calendar (v20130821) so that you can see the appointments with text instead of small bars.

Flash the attachment in your recovery and enjoy! :)

This works on odexed and deodexed stock ROMs, but although I tested it on my own N5, you may want to backup your system first for your convenience.

UPDATE: I don't own the N5 anymore, so I won't maintain this further.

Here is a How-To to mod the calendar yourself: click me.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] zephiK:
A bit off-topic but this caught my eye, what is that app/listings of all the TV shows for your calendar?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] prgopala:
FC on stock odex rom.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] shaftenberg:
Yes it is possible.

But I gave my N5 back to Google, so I won't update this mod anymore, sorry :)

When a new Play Store update arrives, I will mod again then, because I post only mods for devices I can check myself.

That were reminders that new episodes are available in Germany :D

Any more input please. When? Why? Always? One time?

Maybe you can try to re-flash, wipe cache and Dalvik and/or delete app-data from the global settings menu.

The mod itself can't produce any FC's - I haven't changed anything in the program code but only some integers in .xml's and one smali file for the graphics.

I'm sorry to say that I can't help, I have no N5 anymore to test the calendar with ART.

But as the signatures of the mod are the same as the original calendar, there shouldn't be an app specific problem.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] wyrman:
How do u install this. Do I have to be rooted?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] THE_KINGDOM:
why did you return N5? are you getting another one? This was an excellent calendar MOD

[MENTION=4360387]wyrman[/MENTION]: read the OP, thanks :)

[MENTION=4265984]THE_KINGDOM[/MENTION]: I returned the N5, because I wasn't satisfied at all. There were too many glitches which I don't want on my daily driver. Speaker quality, bad viewing angle on my LCD, notification LED did what it wanted but didn't notify me, phone wasn't always ringing, and so on...

Build quality was great, camera was good too, but for me there were too much odds at all.

For anyone who has ever bought from Amazon, I just bought a Samsung S4 at full retail from Amazon. When it comes do I have to go to Verizon to have it activated?

Yes, I asked this question at amazon's forums but they were less than helpful and couldn't give a concrete answer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hexitnow:
I think you should be able to swap sims and then activate using *228 could be wrong tho because ive never purchased that way.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] obededom:
I'll try that when it comes...I've got a iPhone 5 currently. I'll just pop this one out and follow what you said.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LemonSlice:
4G LTE phone's don't activate using *228. Did Amazon also ship you a 4G SIM with your phone? If not you'll have to request one from Verizon. You can get a SIM when you activate your new phone's IMEI on on Verizon's website, where it will ask you if you have a SIM already (the iPhone 5 one doesn't fit) or to send you a new one. If they did send you a new SIM, you just go to Verizon's site and click Activate or Switch Device where you enter your new phone's IMEI and then the SIM card's ICCID and you're done. Of course if you don't have a SIM it's faster to go to Verizon and have them give you one.

I ordered my S4 from Amazon a few months ago. They sent a sim with it, I put it in, went to the website and activated it and within a few seconds I was good to go. The instructions on what to do will be on the sim card package they ship to you with the phone. Just keep in mind that because you bought from Amazon they have their own separate termination fee, so if you break contract within I think 6 months you will get hit with a fee from Amazon.

edit: nevermind, just saw you said full retail, the fee probably doesn't apply to you

My bluetooth car stereo has the same functionality and i've never been able to get it to read texts or even give me a notification that I have a text message. Its unfortunate.
