[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hotrodskater:
I'm currently on a Sprint GN2, v4.1.2, with Baseband L900VPAMA7 and Build JZO54K.L900VPAMA7. Shortly after getting the phone a year ago, I rooted via the Odin method and left the ROM as stock. I have not changed or updated it since. When I have tried to update it with the earlier OTA update from earlier this year, I couldn't due to (I believe) the fact that I have the TWRP recovery and not stock.

With 4.3 hitting, I really would like to get it updated properly. I have been scouring several sites, including XDA, but haven't been able to really answer my questions, which are:

1. Do I need to worry about the earlier OTA update if I get the 4.3 update?

2. Was the earlier OTA update, the update that would have gotten me to a MC2 baseband?

3. Lots of folks talking about Knox files and removing them. Why?

4. For either update, it seems that I have to switch back to the stock recovery, is this correct? But do I need to actually do anything with the ROM itself?

5. And finally, if I have to change back to the stock recovery, how? So many of the how to vids/threads talk about doing both rom and recovery.

Thanks in advance. Oh, and I have found and tried to read through several links on these questions such as:

Hey guys....i just got my tmobile note and flashed darthstalker and jedi and i cant seem to get LTE on my device...anyone have any solutions....i came from note attt but traded for tmobile....when i had tmobile or att stock firmware i got lte but now that i installed either roms i am not seeing lte in and lte area......any help is appreciated.....both awesome roms though
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
Since this most likely has to do with the rom you are using maybe you might try asking in the Deathstalker thread?

Not using darthstalker...using jedi now....will try that though...thanks....i had darthstalker on and didnt get lte and then someone suggested i try jedi so i flashed that one but still no LTE....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Amd4life:
Check the APN and maybe a search to go with it. Both roms work great, and both have full LTE, well at least in my town.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rockinandroid:
just curious would they show lte or just 4g...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] N3r0-666:
It would look like 4GLTE not just 4g
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] thejmannnc:
Did you go to settings- connections- more networks- mobile network - network mode and select LTE/wcdma/gsm ?

Well that's how I got it on my note 3, hope that helps if you haven't already tried it!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Quickvic30:
You didn't tell ATT that you switched phones did you? If you did and gave them the T-Mobile imei number that's why your not going to get lte. You need to give them a imei number from an att phone if you did give them your new imei from the tmobile phone. There's quite a bit of talk about this in the att working on tmobile thread.

I was kind of wondering this too. I love my note 3, it's a beast! But let's say that before my year is up another awesome phone comes out. Am I able to trade someone for that phone or do I have to keep my note for a year?

I've rooted my Note 3 (Kingo) and have loaded Wanam Xposed and enabled it through Xposed Additions Pro. I also enabled "EnableCallRecording [1.0]".

When I place a call, I have the option to "record" and I see the feedback that a recording is occurring and I even find the file under internal memory "sounds" directory however, when I play the file, I hear absolutely nothing.

Can anyone offer some guidance or somewhere which may have better documentation?

First Post so take it easy on me. I've search and found a couple similar posts with different devices or success in ways that did not work for me...

The main issue for me was outlined in the third post, I removed / deleted the app and wiped the dalvik cache, but the app remained. It wasn't until I searched for other instances of the text kindle that I realized there was another area I did not see that needed to be deleted as well.

My Setup

- Rooted

- Recovery (TWRP preferred)

- Still on android 4.2.2 OS (flashed away, then went back)

- VS980 (LG G2 Verizon)

Instructions for removing app (ie. Amazon Kindle)

1) adb devices --to check connection

2) adb remount --to set rw permissions in root

3) adb shell --to enter remote shell

4) ls /*/*/*indle* --to search and list all instances of "Kindle" and "kindle" (probably good to check other levels /*/*/* etc) see screen capture

5) rm /system/app/AmazonKindle.apk & rm /data/app/com.amazon.kindle-2.apk --to delete app

6) reboot recovery

7) wipe dalvik cache in recovery mode

8) boot and search for app

adb devices
adb remount
adb shell
ls /*/*/*indle*
rm /system/app/AmazonKindle.apk
rm /data/app/com.amazon.kindle-2.apk
reboot recovery
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GR33ND3V:
Update

After deleting several apps I realized it is

different on an app by app basis

. Sometimes you can simply go to the /system/app folder and be done, but sometimes you have to search through /data/app and /data/etc. In one case the Verizon Tones app was deleted from /system/app, but the icon remained, at that point I was able to remove the app by the standard settings gear in apps and then selecting the red X to remove like it was a normal app that I had installed.

Anyone know why it is so different on an app to app basis?
[Moto X Q&A] TransX2:
So, I'm an automotive Technician and have a White Verizon Moto X. As you could imagine, I get random oil residue and grim on my hands all the time which makes it's way to my beautiful X. Unfortunately, I've found it to be quite difficult to get it off my X. It kinda stains it. I've tried a towel dampened with Windex to no avail. I'm sort of scared to try anything stronger. Has anyone found a good cleaner or concoction that cleans it well without damaging it?
[Moto X Q&A] stonesaber:
I'd try a good spray polish. If you're around a Honda motorcycle dealer, pick up a can of Honda polish or the equivalent. I use it for everything and it degreases as well without damaging paint/plastic etc. I won't hurt the screen either.
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
An automotive technician probably shouldn't have a white phone and expect to keep it white. The design of the back of the phone is such it is going to be very hard to keep clean if grease or oils get on it.
[Moto X Q&A] Deleted member 2351944:
Isopropyl alcohol is pretty good for most plastics, and most surfaces in general. Note that I haven't tried it on my Moto X, but it's my go-to cleaner on most items where I don't want to clean without leaving any residue behind. Certainly better than Windex, which has a huge amount of blue dye in it (unless you're using one of the clear versions), and ammonia reacts with some plastics moreso than isopropanol.
[Moto X Q&A] ryude:
Rubbing Alcohol and Microfiber towel.
[Moto X Q&A] TransX2:
Yeah, maybe white wasn't the best choice to keep it clean but I got it for free with a deal and didn't want the typical black phone. I'll try rubbing alcohol when I get home.
[Moto X Q&A] markandmyia:
I would like to add my 2 cents. Use what works for the body of the phone....but do not clean the glass with anything other than a cloth...it has a oleophobic coating that will be removed if you clean it with alcohol or other cleaner.
[Moto X Q&A] _MetalHead_:
I wipe mine down with alcohol pads and a microfiber cloth every night.
[Moto X Q&A] dicarli:
Let me know if it work out, I've got a white one, and although I'm not a technician it's already getting dirty
[Moto X Q&A] TKTAB911:
Hello fellow auto tech, I'd suggest a full body cover. Honestly the otterbox defender for the moto x is AMAZING and is well, perfect in my opinion. I don't get any drip through and it'd be quite difficult to actually damage it with my/our profession unless I drop it in an oil drip pan. However, get yourself a bottle of goo-gone and spray it on a towel, then coat the device in a SMALL film/layer of it and let sit for a minute or so, then get a slightly damp paper towel and wipe it down, followed up with a good drying towel to capture all the moisture. Maybe even wrap it up in a drying towel/microfiber towel and let it sit in it so it's all absorbed.
[Moto X Q&A] SYNSYNACKACK:
I'd say alcohol and microfiber cloth. Noticed screen is little harder to keep clean on Moto X.

Also noticed screen doesn't seem to be very scratch resistant.

Have some fine scratches on it, either from pocket use or from cleaning.

Specially on white or light backgrounds...It is barely noticable when viewing the screen at normal distance (you have to look for it), but is visible with the phone at a closer distance (about 6 inches)

Thanks for your help.

Oh mann. That's terrible. I guess you will need to live with it. However, I would still recommend showing it to a LG service center. It could also be a faulty/loose cable and if that's the case, you need not cough up much money to fix it.

I did some tests on mircoSD cards a little while ago. SanDisk and transcend were the top in performance with Samsung closely behind.

Its also worth while to note that lifetime warranty is important. or at least 10 years as faster tech will come out.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SpyderTracks:
IMHO, the cheap ones are just plain awful IF they work, and cheaper mainstream ones like Samsung and SanDisk off eBay are almost always fakes also.

It's worth spending a little to get the good brands from a reputable dealer, faster speeds, better reliability. The mainstream 64gb ones are around 50p per gb.

Hey, I'll just get to the problem:

I got the last 10.2 on my nook hd+ (MBG4GA) with trim on (flashed the kernel trim zip)

I wanted to try the android Supercharger from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991276

I ended up unistalling the nook usb drivers (from device manager, MY NOOK, unistalled) and installing the google usb drivers to have a .bat script recognise the device from pc through usb. Unfortunately it didnt go as planned, so I decided to do it manually (getting the script on the nook and running it there from the script manager).

But unfortunately my pc does not see the device anymore. If I plug it in and disable debugging mode the computer plays the classic sound but it doesnt detect the storage, whereas before my "messup" it detected "MY NOOK", that had the 32GB mass storage and micro sd icons. So I can't put any file in there anymore.

In the device manager I only see "Android Phone", and, under this voice, lies "Android Composite ADB Interface".

How can I make my pc detect the device as before?
