[Android General] s7yler:
I would stay away from a phone with only 512mb ram. The number "4.3" can just be fake. That is just a number that can be edited in the ROM, so that may not be real at all.
[Android General] s7yler:
Could you maybe update your post with the newst infos from the thread? We have links to the Bootanimation, we have benchmark results and tips. And we have more new youtube videos with the device etc.

guys, i tried to install CWM for my phone but i get an error...

i got an error when i tried and press Root Button on Droid Tools

Error : File adbd not install !

i have my phone rooted, i check it with roor checker, i have ADB Drivers installed on my PC…

what could be the problem ?
[Android General] pficrx:
As i see from the image your phone is not rooted or maybe something else is cause this problem.... Search and install the latest app framaroot and then follow the guide again...Install from the market Busybox , enable USB debugging and then try to install the cwm.. Maybe this will help...
[Android General] filip_pine:
is rooted, i root it with Shuame, then i install root checker and it says : Congrulations, this phone has root acces now...

i have BusyBox Installed, USB Debug Active, ADb Drivers install it on my PC, otherwise i could not root the phone with Shuame...

but MTK Droid Tools give me that error... :(
[Android General] pficrx:
As i see from the screenshot u post...Something goes wrong with mtktools..because when i root my phone with framaroot and open then mtktools , the root button in the bot was disappear and at your screenshot is there...

Try and install framaroot then open it and select exploit Boromir....

Restart your phone and then download the latest mtktools 2.5.3 ...

[Android General] filip_pine:
Thanks, i´ll try now and let you know if it works...
[Android General] filip_pine:
Thank you man, this time it works, after i download the latest version of MTK Droid Tools and root device with Framaroot...

finally manage to boot into recovery, CWM is 100% functionally :) Thank youu soo much man :cowboy:

i attach you some screenshot from the process

PS : i will start everything from 0

- install ROM again

- Root Device Again

- Install CWM Again

- Install your update.zip to see if i get back the Samsung Logo :smile

Guide me a little bit, i want to erase everything, should i choose wipe cache, data dalvik cache... or how ?
[Android General] pficrx:
No problem...Just don't unistall the application playApp ... What do you want to erase ? Do a backup your rom from the cwm ..soo if something goes wrong , you can restore your rom from the cwm...

Just hit the Thank button ....
[Android General] arnabcool:
Thanks i ll stay away from it....but the note 3 max in fastcardtech has a original android 4.3 jelly bean i guess...:D

I have a confusion that in kitkat 4.4 version it says tht it can run on 512 mb ram..can i root the device with 512mb ram to 4.3 or 4.4 version...does mtk chips allow rooting...as many of my friends from different forum says ht it cant b rooted...:confused:

Air view wont turn off

i got this phone and installed s7yler's 4.2.1 rom, everything works, thing is air view ( when you hover your finger) is always on and annoying when typing
[Android General] s7yler:
Okay that is strange, because I can disable it in the options just fine. Actually another user have contacted me with the same, but his problem is that the air view don't work at all - actually the opposite of your problem then. (but everything else is also fine for him).
[Android General] MrCompleteownage:
if youre referring to a youtube comment, thats me,i fixed that, there was a setting. still looking incase i missed a setting, but it seems to happen when i set the touchscreen to ultra for the pen, then it registers my finger above the screen
[Android General] filip_pine:
pfi, finally i was able to flash the update from the CWM, but only show the text Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-9000 for about 2 seconds, then android text appear again...

no Samsung sound, no Samsung animation at all... :(
[Android General] arnabcool:
[MENTION=3035491]Fluffy.[/MENTION]..Thanks good to hear this...but with 512 mb ram in some models available in my local shops....can i root it to 4.3 or 4.4...later...there is an option of software update in the clone models...is it really works....:confused:

over here a guy is selling a clone of note 3 and claiming tht it is rooted to cwm....is it wise to buy from him..how to recognize a genuine 4.3 jelly bean version...as when i touch the android 4.3 version option it displayed the jellybean logo 4.3 and flying jellybeans as seen in reviews...:(
[Android General] s7yler:
it is because you have flashed only the first logo (logo.bin). There are actually 3 steps.

1 bootup logo, then another bootup logo and then the bootup animation.

Download my media folder here http://peecee.dk/upload/view/429337

and then backup your current media folder (just in case), and replace the files with mine here. This contain the animation etc.

(located in /system/media - go there on the phone with Root Explorer - copy my media files in to your media folder)
[Android General] filip_pine:
i should just copy the files or install them with the CWM ? because i have copy them and no result... Android text appear again ... :(
[Android General] s7yler:
mmm actually just copy them. The Android text is the default bootup. That should normally be located in system/media.

You did have that folder? did you check if the bootanimation.zip was inside there? and try to open the zip file, then you should see the default android bootup. You should just replace the default bootanimation.zip with mine from my media package. Remember also to set the correct permissions on the files again with Root explorer. If that don't work, then I have no clue what's going on, on your device sorry.
[Android General] pficrx:
Flash my update from CWM and u will get samsung boot logo...

Then copy paste the files of s7yler in system/media and give them the correct permissions to bootaminmation and shutdown file..

Like this...
[Android General] filip_pine:
Done exactly like you said, but with no succes, i just got the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Text ( flashing your update.zip from CWM )...

copy the files from skyler, give them the same permissions with no succes... Android text is still present...

i just replace them man, but they dont want to load... :(, i´trying to flash them from CWM, maybe this will work, me neither i have no clue what´s going on with my device... :(

PS : i forgot to mention that my device is SM-900 this are the information

N9006 semi bricked in boot loop need help :(

i am new here in xda..i have the hdc n9006 note 3 clone which has the mtk6582 chip..my phone is on boot loop after installing a font app from playstore which required me to reboot and now stuck on the samsung logo..i've tried removing the sim card,sd card and it still won't boot..i've tried accessing the stock recovery but i couldn't select any of the 3 choices which are the fast boot,recovery, and normal boot...the volume + button is working because i can move the cursor but the volume - or down won't respond whenever i select an option..the power and menu button won't respond as well on recovery mode...

i also have a problem because i have downloaded the mtk 65xx usb drivers and adb drivers but it won't install the drivers whenever i choose the folder where i have extracted the files...

i can't proceed to reflashing with sp_flashtool until i install the drivers perfectly..

i really need help because my n9006 is now just an expensive paper weight..thanks
[Android General] filip_pine:
you need to connect your phone, wait for the pc to recognize it, then choose no : i will install the driver manually > navigate to the folder where you extract the drivers and choose the .ini file and it will install....

other method is : connect your phone to pc, then go to device manager and you´ll see a mark : ? : right click and select update driver > navigate to the folder where you extract the drivers and choose the .ini file and it will install....

- 1-st method work for me when i install the drivers, maybe would work also for you...

you mean trying to input the codes to get Samsung Boot Animation ? i try, but with no success...

maybe it works only on Samsung Galaxy S4 Clone...

PS :Guys, i´m really confused, i dont know which device do i have , if is the SM-900 or HDC N9006

I have made a video an upload it on youtube, maybe you guys help me to identify my Mobile Phone

You could also try to download and install SnapPea on your PC. http://www.snappea.com/windows

Install their PC software, sometimes it then helps to install the correct phone drivers, and afterwards the connection works.

That helped me when my phone would not install the correct drivers, because I wanted to root it on the computer. (but works now).

Hello guys :D

I've seen some videos of HDC Galaxy Note 3, and I'm a bit confused about the s-pen. In some videos, the s-pen tip seems to be slighty narrower (almost like the original s-pen tip) than in other videos, and in some videos too, the s-pen seems to respond more precisely.

The HDC Galaxy Note 3 can be shipped with different s-pens? (in fact, in some video, I've seen a s-pen with a really big tip, ball-shaped)

Thank you very much ;)
[Android General] s7yler:
1. The first Note 3 clones had a very big tip, ball shaped with a silver ring, that are from the first versions (http://image.dhgate.com/albu_443277567_00-1.0x0/dhl-hdc-1-1-n9006-note3-note-3-note-iii-phone.jpg)

2. The second versions have a slightly thinner tip, but still it doesnt look 100% like the original, and the button is fake

(http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/pU1wqFQltqA/maxresdefault.jpg)

3. The newest Note 3 clones that comes with a S-pen, look like the original S-pen, it even have a working button on it, and the screen also tracks the pen with a small dot, when the S-pen is close enough to the screen, just like on the original.

(http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/JRNcRQ18jsg/maxresdefault.jpg)

Some of the uservideos on Youtube of the Note 3 where the S-pen is unprecise, the users have not calibrated the screen before the test. Calibrating the screen will often help a lot.

It still can be confusing because it seems that some sellers (from dhgate and aliexpress) are mixing the pens with different versions. Some pens are also difficult to insert (tight) because they where not original made for the type of phone. I have seen videos where the user had problems to insert the pen again, and it was also hard to pull out.

I still believe that this http://www.TinyURL.com/note3n9006s is one of the better clones, because it has a S-pen with real S-pen function (S-pen with chip!) and it also seems to look like the original (http://img.bestphonepic.com/images/201312/goods_img/10504_P_1387240907333.jpg), thin tip and with a real button. But I have to say that I personally havent tried this version yet, so that is only from the info/videos I have seen on the net about this version. The only bad thing is that it supposedly (according to FCT) does not support OTG.
[Android General] technographics:
s7yler, thank you for your fast, awesome, and extremely accurate reply!!! haha

There is some clue to know if the phone to order is the best HDC Note 3 version with the most precise and working s-pen? (or some trustable web where I can know that the phone they are shipping me it's the best model)

Thank you again.
[Android General] s7yler:
It is a jungle, they develop and change constantly on these chinese clones, so you can never be sure to get the best model. If you order the best today, there might be a even better clone/model out next month, no one can know. Also when you buy a china clone, you have to be aware of the risk, you always gamble a bit with these chinese clones, because they ARE just clones. If you want to be sure about the phone you get, then you have to go buy the original instead. You could order the one from my link, I have 3 china products so far, all from FCT and all ok products.

Thank you very much for the info!

They even come out with MTK6592 Octa Core recently :D
[Android General] Vicolodo:
Hello,

i am a newbie,

i am going to buy a smartphone,

perhaps a Note 3 clone

I see on many online markets (e.g. aliexpress) that many brands of note 3 clones are almost identical externally to the original note 3

But they have a different user interface, it is difficult to find a clone with high level hardware specifications...

the most of the clones with samsung touchwiz have only 1 gb ram and poor hardware specifications

I am searching for a note 3 clone with high level hardware specifications, were is installed a 1:1 ROM with touchwiz interfaces... perhaps the latest mediatek octa core mtk6592

If not available,

i am looking for the best note 3 clone hardware where is possible to fit such samsung touchwiz ROMs

any suggestion?

which brands (HDC,MLAIS,ZOPO) that produces note 3 clones are more suitable to fit such custom ROMs ?

sorry for this newbie question...

Thank you!
[Android General] pficrx:
I suggest you to visit fastcardtech and search for the phone you like...

I have bought 3 phones from there 1 Hdc galaxy note 3 max n9006 and 2 hdc galaxy s4 ...

From my experience from this phones and from this site im very satisfied...

Just do a reasearch about the phone you like and then buy it..

Hi just got my Note 3 clone today,I have just rooted it now I need to know how to get rid of the Chinese apps, what is

safe to remove or should I just back up this factory rom and flash a new rom.

I ordered the HDC note 3 clone N9006 but actually got the N9002 with infra-red reciever.

Kernel version,

3.4.0-1590669 se.infra@SEP-136 #1 Sat Oct 12 05:11:24 KST 2013 Is this the latest build or should I use another rom.

[MENTION=2105197]s7yler[/MENTION]..i just watched ur latest video on youtube...very nice review abt multiwindow and benchmark and speed test...is the lg or htc phone u compared with the clone note 2 r original ones...:laugh:

i just ordered the note 3max n9006 frm fct...does the s view cover will work with this model.....i bought a hard back cover of note 3 orginal..will this model fit it in...:confused:

now i am a noob in rooting can u tell me how to root this note 3 max clone....

thanks..:o
[Android General] s7yler:
Thanks, and yes the LG and HTC are original phones. I think the s-view cover depends on what firmware you will get with the phone. If it is the latest then it should normally work (it has the s-view options, and you can change colours for the s-view window), but you can show/tell us when you have it. Because I havent tried the s-view cover with the newest firmware yet. The original Note 3 backcover fits. To backup and root your phone you could use this guide http://androidtronics.blogspot.dk/2013/07/guide-how-to-make-backup-of-your-rom.html actually you just connect the phone, start MTK droid tools, and go to root tab, and press the "Superuser" button and the program will root the phone permanent. But try the guide first, to get some understanding for it. Also a backup is a good thing to do as the first thing. After you have made your backup with MTK droid tools, then remember also to run the "Prepare blocks for Flashtool" (inside MTK droid tools there a button for this), after that it will work with "sp flash tool" (the tool you use to flash a backup or a new ROM with).

How can you see that your phone is a N9002? never heard about a N9002 with real IR remote. I have only seen the N9006 have this feature.

Are the specs the same as the N9006?
[Android General] jonnyc51:
The model number in settings tells me its a SM 9002 but it has infrared sensor,now I haven't used the sensor yet so it might not work.

Was bought as the dual Sim version of the SM 9006 from FCT.

[Android General] s7yler:
Yes, with the newer ROM, the IR works just like on my original ROM.

---------- Post added at 06:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:00 PM ----------

We don't know, you have to ask the reviewer and ibaby888 about that. We can't answer for them can we? Maybe ibaby888 send you another phone. Did you have the remote app on the phone from the start?
[Android General] retro2k13:
Yeah it comes with the ir remote app but it doesn't work
[Android General] s7yler:
How you know it doesnt work? maybe you didnt set it up correct?

If you take another phone and look with its camera on the top where the sensor is, while pressing the remote app buttons, does it then light up? (your eyes can't see this because it is infrared, only through another camera you may see this). If it light/flashes from the sensor, then it must be real.

I supposed they had the S-Pen,

but when i watched the videos on youtube,

none of them had the S-Pen

And none of them have the Samsung Touchwiz UX interface

I wonder if does exist a Note 3 clone with the S-Pen and Samsung Touchwiz UX interface 'like the original', with multi window , air gestures, smart stay and all other features that are included in the original Samsung Touchwiz UX

Here in Italy i found some italian online shop that sells a Note 3 clone

having both these features, this is the link to the shop:

http://www.bestpricestore.it/SMARTPHONE-ANDROID-NOTES-3-JET-BLACK.1.1.49.gp.282.uw.aspx

and this the link to the youtube video review:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwlYIjAWu8E

it is called 'NOTES 3 N9002' and its specifications are:

MTK 6589 1.2Ghz with Turbo Boost to 1.6Ghz

Full HD

2GB RAM

Android 4.3

In the video i can see it has samsung touchwiz ux , with all the options... multi window included

The price is about 258 EUR, that is about 350 USD

It seems too much expensive, to be a clone

I think the shop is only a reseller of some chineese shop,

perhaps they bought the device from HDC...

So now i wonder which model of HDC phone it is,

so that i can buy directly it from HDC, to save some money :)

Could someone help me?

Thanks!!
[Android General] s7yler:
That last one just looks like the same I have linked to so many times before on FCT, the 2GB version of the N9006. It seems that it is just called N9002 when it is the dualsim version. http://tinyurl.com/note3n9006s

and at FCT it is only US$ 235.00 and you can use their new year coupon to save $6 extra right now. Maybe that italien shop just buy them from FCT or another chinese seller and sell them on more expensive, for me it seems so.

The phone in the video you link to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwlYIjAWu8E

that phone doesnt have real multiwindow, you can see it on the sidebar button at 02:54. It is not 100% round, more flat. It is the old type of sidebar, where the multiwindow feature doesnt really work. The sidebar button has to be 100% round (a semicircle, like on this http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/Kcpk1JnckR4/maxresdefault.jpg), to be the sidebar with real multi-window. Compare the 2 buttons, and you will notice that they have different shapes. But maybe it could be fixed with a newer ROM, I guess so.

Also the s-view cover doesnt seem to work. At 7:53 in the video, it doesnt change the window it seems, just stays blue behind the sticker. And at 8:09 when he opens the cover, it should not react like this if it worked. So it seems to either be not the same phone or a phone with old ROM.
