[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noteworthy:
The camera has Jeckel and Hyde characteristics.Outdoor shots are superb for a smartphone but when you venture indoor or at night,it takes pretty awful photos.Smart Stabalisation brightens things up and limits noise but you lose all detail.If you crop in, faces and objects look like cartoon drawings.There is only so much you can do with a small sensor so I think the N3 needs a dedicated night mode and better software.don't hold your breath though.Samsung will fix this issue up but only when the N4 arrives with their isocell technology.

If you want decent photos at night you need to use the flash but the flash doesn't work well past 10 ft.

Hello everyone!

I'm having a bit of an issue. apparently everything was deleted on my phone for some reason when i was using my phone. I decided that I should just Factory restore through TWRP and reinstall kitkat 4.4.1. when I went to go factory restore I see that on the commands it says "Unable to mount, failed to wipe dalvik, wipe complete Failed" I took off the -rf on the settings check mark and when I go to Factory reset, the phone stays on "Formatting Cache using make_ext4fs function" the progress bar is moving but after several minutes it's the same screen no changes no failed messages or anything. almost like it's still trying to format. - my phone starts to get kinda warm. I have tried sideloading a ROM but my computer doesn't seem to pickup my phone. Instead when I hit to sideload through adb in the device manager i see "Other devices g2" with a question mark.

I do have the LG usb drivers and also I believe I have adb installed.

What else can i do? My phone still tries to boot but all I get is the boot animation over and over again.I tried the "LG G2 Stock Firmware" thread but the program says wrong phone model.

I had installed Kitkat 4.4 with Wootever's version 6 kernel and my phone model is d800.

Thanks for all your help! Seems like flashing was a lot easier on my previous HTC One X+ lol

I recently bought an iView 777TPCII Allwinner A20 7" tablet with USB OTG support and Android Jelly Bean 4.2.2, but it doesn't recognize any of my USB controllers or PS3/Xbox controllers. I've rooted the tablet and ran lsmod to see if hid-sony, xpad, or joydev were installed, but there were not listed.

Does any one know where to find a firmware download for the iView 777TPCII Allwinner A20 7" tablet with these modules included or how to compile these kernel modules that aren't included in the stock ROM?

My thought is to compile the sunxi kernel for A20 and install the modules manually, but I don't know if I then need to replace my existing kernel on the device and I'm afraid I might brick the tablet if I'm not careful.

I'm going to attempt to follow the guide on cnx-software to build kernel modules and modify it slightly to compile for A20 and not A10 devices:

Was your phone modified? Was the bootloader unlocked and SuperCID? Was the phone s-on? If the phone was s-on and SuperCID you've bricked it.

You can't unbrick it yourself. You need to get a jtag repair done. And next time be more careful and know what you're doing.

As far as I've seen, nobody has been able to recover from a brick caused by RUU using JET.

Which is not to say you can't be the first. But I would say its highly unlikely to work.

After reading all the hassle some people went to for putting a screen protector (working in a room with steam etc.) I decided to give the Boxwave recommendation a go. My anti-glare protector arrived this morning and is now protecting my Wizard - really impressed with how easily it went on, took me a couple of attempts to get it properly aligned but it's on properly now and with no bubbles. There is a slight cross hatching effect but I guess this is part of the anti-glare - if it makes it easier to read under light then I'll happily take the tradeoff.

OK I went ahead and thought I'd be a Guinea Pig.

I was rooted on MJ7(vroot), only removed ads, and froze all Knox apps. Other than that just had some root apps installed.

Went ahead and took the update OTA.

Selected "Survival Mode" in SuperSU app.

Ran the update with no issues.

Check and am now on MK2 now.

Get custom lock splash screen

Still have root. Verified with Root Checker, SuperSU and TiB

Couple of new apps installed with update.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Sir_Eagle:
You'll probably need to get back to stock MJ7 via flashing in Odin or using the VZW Software Update/Repair utility. The update is more than likely not finding one or more apps/files that you deleted.

No u should be ok. I have a few apps disable mostly all the bloatware. All you need to worry is that u have all the bloatware for the OTA to work if not the OTA will fail.

I see you guys have helped out the devs with taking this update, some have even kept root through it and now that there is another good option for root instead of the Chinese way, I guess it wasnt wasn't a terribly huge risk, but I'm all set with future OTA's. We read and hear about what may be in them, but who knows anymore. Who knows if it'll add some more security bs.. We certainly don't need more of that!!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scolis:
So far it appears that only MK2 to MJ7 downgrade works, I tried Ml1 and MDK via ODIN images and it fails.

so for some reason they allowed the downgrade, my thinking is because it was a small update and no restore images avail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
That means they didnt up the counter in the new aboot...also explains why Odin fails flashing the new modem.

Whats blocking the downgrade to MDK then? They probably left the binary value at 5 in the MK2 aboot so it would match MJ7s aboot value (5).

Sorry just thinking/typing out loud.

That means that there's something that the update is trying to patch that you've either removed or modified. You'll need to figure out what that is.

Eventually someone will grab the OTA package so we can figure out what's changed.

As an alternative, you can flash the no-wipe MJ7 stock image - then the OTA will work.
