[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WannabeeGBG:
Good day.

So, I have a Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100). It is not locked to any operator and it has stock Android 4.3 installed via Kies a few days ago. I heard that there should be support for emojis in this Android version. My gf has a Galaxy S4 with Android 4.3 and she has the iWnn keyboard with all the colored emojis. When I try to find that keyboard on my Note II I can't. There is no keyb with that name. I can see some emojis in apps and messages but no color and no posibility to type emoji without using Google keyboard (installed as an APK). The Google keyboard has only a few emojis.

How come everyone else with a Note II has this iWnn keyboard installed but not my phone? If it was locket to an operator I would understand, but since it's bought not locked to an operator I don't. Could anyone help me with this?

And also, how come the S4 range has the colored emojis and not the Note II/other models? Isn't the version of Android the same?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geekynoob:
Coloured emoji support came from 4.4 as afaik..!

Try a 3rd party keyboard.. Take the apk form her phone and use it.. I hope her s4 is rooted.!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irwenzhao:
S4 is newer than Note 2 after all. (And both phones aren't stock android after all) so Samsung can still stuff new stuff into the s4, so download a third party keyboard (I use go keyboard) or grab the apk from your girlfriend's phone and hope it works on your note 2.

Smack that thanks button If I helped!

Always make a nandroid backup before trying anything risky

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Jok3rxL:
I don't know whether here is place for it or not but i couldn't find any solution anywhere else. I bought my W nearly 1.5 years ago. Since one month earlier, everything has been fine. But then I received a message saying ''Your IMEI number is clonned, please contact with your firm.'' I went there and they said the very only solution is to bind IMEI to one phone number. This is very important for me because I use my phone for connecting net on my PC via USB Tethering and for this everytime I have to switch SIM Card. Now, I have two questions about this;

1) Is there any other legal option to do but bind the IMEI to just one stable phone?

2) If not or it's the only legal choice, what can I do to use another SIM on my phone?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] herioeks:
Are you using Stock ROM/Firmware? Have you tried to Factory Reset your device?(Backup your files if you are planning to do so) If Factory Reset won't work, try re-Installing Stock Firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Jok3rxL:
I'm using LiquidSmooth v2.9, every other thing is stock. I tried changing ROM but i didn't work ( tried stock also)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] dec0der:
Changing ROM either stock or custom won't change your IMEI. Some says you can change it using a program but I'm not sure though. In some country, changing it is illegal and punishable by law.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Jok3rxL:
Yea, in my country it is illegal. But I don't want to change my IMEI, I just am asking whether there is a way to use another SIM Card when my phone's IMEI is stuck with only one stable phone number. But it seems now there is no way.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] dec0der:
I'm a bit confused mate cause in my country we can always use different kinds of SIM Card, of course with our own country's communication networks (globe, smart, talk n text, touch mobile, sun, etc.) as long as our phone is not locked to a specific network but it can be unlock too both prepaid and post paid.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anandpo:
First of all, I don't want to install any custom rom right now. If kit kat comes I may change my mind.

But till then I am enjoying ad free phone by installing adaway.

Installed Xposed and Wanam from there.. Lots of UI customisation.

Multi window from xperiacle a must have and fit for note 3.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] jaycb420:
Pretty good post OP. I have already given some of these a shot. I'm unrooted. Rooted my note 2. Still unsure about the 3 as there isn't as much information on it.

I also think having perfect signal the entire time plays a large effect as well.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] stanley08:
Yes! Bad signal can actually drain more battery. As applications dat need internet keep trying to reconnect.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mfknboss:
I averaged 9hrs 32mins screentime with stock phone Not rooted and no special apps. Wifi the entire time with a Sprint note 3. Its all about your signal. The better quality signal the better battery life you will get. You can flash the latest and greatest roms and kernels but if you have a poor signal you will have poor battery life.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] stanley08:
Actually, battery life depends on sooooo many things, signal, ROM, kernel (in some cases), apps installed, apps running in background, GPS use, screen settings, even down to little details like wallpaper funny enough lol. I believe I can think of a lot of stuff, however! Very true! Poor signal will also drain battery, out of experience I speak.

Afterall, My battery has sat at 100% for 9 whole hours on Airplane mode! :D
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Lonzo_SGS2_506:
Yes you are right Google now drains a lot..!! I thought it was only me he he.. Even in airplane mode it drains .. Unbelievable.. Last night I just put it on vibrate and it didn't drain anything...:cool: last three days it drained 3% in 5 hrs in airplane.

[MENTION=4702699]stanley08[/MENTION] , I never did a factory reset on a droid b4, so how do I do it, what will I lose & how do I backup, though my concern with backup is I might reload some battery hogging data or settings which would result in waste of time & screwing around with a already set up phone.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] vucuongkts:
MJ7.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] stanley08:
This is the Wise thing to do. Do whatever backup you want to do, Titanium Backup, SMS backup, Call logs backup, Nandroid Backup, and any other backup you want to do. Then Create 2 folders on your PC. Name the first one Internal Sd and the Second one External SD.

Then connect phone to pc and open up ur internal sd, highlight all and copy to the folder on ur pc names Internal. Do the same for external sd, but this time... Copy your external sd contents to the other folder you named external sd. That is IF you have/use an external sd. For me, it is pretty convenient to backup my external sd as it is a 16GB one and only about half full at all times. :D

NOTE: Wipe data/Factory reset in Custom Recovery like CWM will NOT delete your files on the internal sd of your phone. It will only remove your installed apps and reset ur settings...

But wiping from STOCK SAMSUNG recovery will do the above and ALSO wipe your internal sd clean. And that is what is called hard format. Or hard reset or factory reset.

I advice that copying data to your pc should be the LAST thing you do before wiping anything. This way, you will be certain that everything you backed up is safe as they are either on ur Internal sd or external sd. CHEERS! :D

everyone can share the list of system apps that can safe to be greenified ?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] stanley08:
Any app you do not receive Background Notifications from is 'Safe to greenify'

If you greenify apps like WhatsApp, BBM, Facebook, Twitter, Telegram and every other app you expects messages or Notifications from on the go, then u won't get the alert until you manually open the app as Greenifying is more or less force closing the apps. So feel free to go ahead and greenify ur games, and regular utility apps. Cheers! :)

[Galaxy Note 3 General] stanley08:
Updated OP! :D

11. Reception: Believe it or not, reception is VERY IMPORTANT when it comes to battery life saving. If you have good reception, then it's smooth sailing and good battery, but if your reception isn't good then your phone is always always trying to reconnect your apps and services to the internet, over and over and over again! Trust me, this can take a serious Toll on your battery. If you notice my screenshots below, I have near 'PERFECT' reception. Notice the green Network mobile signal area in Graph. No blemish! :)

Here is how: Well, since i'm always on WiFi (have a pocket router).. I never need the '3G/HSPA' reception, so I set my phone to GSM/2G Only (Settings > More Networks > Mobile Networks then change Network mode to GSM Only). I'm using Exynos Note 3, so I don't have LTE, but if you are Snapdragon user with LTE, You can set to either just 3G Only as that should still be more stable than 4G/LTE, you can still set as above too, afterall you won't be needing the LTE connection when on WiFi. :D

All I said right now about Reception was complicated yes?

This App makes it simple - http://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/themes-apps/app-intelli3g-2g-3g-4g-toggle-battery-t2580234

Since you are not rooted, try this

Go into Wi-Fi settings > Advanced. Set Keep WiFi on during sleep to Never.

If you were rooted, delete or rename the file /system/bin/gsiff_daemon to maybe gsiff_daemonBAK

Cheers! :)

[Galaxy Note 3 General] CZroe:
I just wanted to point out that nanocells can cause serious and unpredictable battery drain too. I had a Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY 4G (R800at) for the last two years and I always had to make sure it was plugged in at home even though battery life was great everywhere else. Why?

Well, I didn't figure it out until, more than once, I woke up late for work with my phone inexplicably dead. Each time my phone had died despite having near or at 100% battery when I set my alarm a few hours earlier (I used my alarm specifically because I was sleep-deprived but didn't have more time than that to sleep).

It wouldn't do it every day but I would catch it trying to at least twice a week. The battery history would show a sharp drop almost straight down that was worse than if I had the screen at max brightness playing games while tethering my laptop running bittorrent! I still didn't know that it only did this at home until some time later. I had been through two replacements and different ROMs.

I'm pretty sure it's a compatibility glitch with the baseband because every other phone worked fine with the Cisco AT&T Microcell. Unplugging it should have made battery life worse due to the same poor signal that necessitated the darn thing, but it would never do it with the Microcell turned off. In over 2 years the M-cell never updated to fix it.

You can Greenify everything but avoid the apps just like what Stanley said and in my own opinion don't hibernate the system apps with Android icon.
