[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Image persistence isn't normally a manufacturing defect though, which is what rma replacement devices are supposed to cover. Since persistence is a trait of the screen type, then I think to accept as rma and give a new device is over the top. THAT SAID, persistence shouldn't exist at this age under normal usage so they do have a duty to the OP to at least look at it and work out what happened as there definitely could be a fault with the screen.

Plus theres been so much RMA on the nexus 5 over non-issues that I bet a healthy proportion of the refurbs never had anything wrong with them.

What's so bad about refrerbs? They fixed whatever is wrong with it didn't they? And if something is wrong send it back and get another one.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imablackhat:
Here's a pic of what it is. Heavier on the top then bottom. And its only on gray images. I can't see it at all otherwise except on grays... Darker grays.

And easy to see if full brightness up =[ fail IPS display.........
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imablackhat:
Part that sucks is I always make sure to rotate my device. Constantly to not burn images. Even when gaming. Because I've had it happen on obviously my original nexus... But thats amoled...

Idk if this will ever be reversible.

Maybe I got it from instagramming because you can't rotate that app.

And BTW. I always rock 25% brightness.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imablackhat:
Had my RMA for what. A week? Brightness always 25% or auto. Always immersive mode when gaming. Always rotate screen during long period of use. And always turned screen off. Timer at 30 seconds.

So now my new one is already starting to get retention. Top status bar. Easily seen on gray images. And assume it'll get worse just like the other over time.

I assume everyone has this burn but doesn't know how to check it....

Can people please open gallery, turn up brightness 100% to easily see.. Open an image that's like 4:3 so when you rotate the device sideways you get plenty of that gray color on each side. Now look at where the status bar is by the speaker (supposed to be) do you easily see a color difference or outline?

Please people. Post!!!

http://youtu.be/PCeosimaj00

Just purchased these two days ago from china, was going to buy a few non oem S View cover and the yijieneng qi receiver to enable the S view function and at the same time have Qi wireless charging, the yijieneng receiver is the only receiver on the market that can be used with the oem/non oem S View cover without modification, this receiver is sandwiched between the phone and the ic on the S Veiw cover.

Recently released is the new Nillkin S View/Qi set.

The set contains the S View case and a Qi wireless receiver, the differences between this and other products on the market is, the S View case does not need a IC, the S View IC is built into the Qi wireless receiver, with this set you must use your existing oem battery cover, the case clips onto the frame of the phone.

With this set, it works perfect, if you need to know, and I think many people wants to know as well, yes you can use this receiver with the oem/non oem S V iew cover with or without the built in IC, other branded and non branded cover can also be used, but you must confirm that the cover does support the S View feature, The cover must have a built in magnet and is located on the front cover about 1.5cm from the bottom just next to the folding area.

About the receiver, apart from being S View/Qi compatible, the receiver is nothing like what people has purchased online, The quality is excellent, this receiver does not use a flexi coil or the copper coil, instead it's the same as that of the sandisk receiver that I have posted before which uses a copper coil eched within a thin PCB.

Model number is covered for particular reasons.

No link will be posted, please do not ask.

Interested do you know where can i buy one ?

EDIT: Apologies, didn't see that very last line

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] hd2Raz:
Oh cool. This is good to know. I have one of these cases saved in my eBay watch list but wasn't sure exactly how it works.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] hamsup1o:
does this receiver interfere with NFC? tia!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bobn:
I purchased from ALIEXPRESS and will see how it goes; usually takes at least 2 weeks to get
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
the s view ic is built in to the wireless receiver, you will need to use your oem battery cover for this.

this is one of the two available on the market, the other being a non branded one, i will be getting a few more of this, and the non branded one, see which one offer better usability.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ReggieSmith:
does this receiver cause any bulge on the OEM back?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mixxy:
As [MENTION=610412]kms108[/MENTION] has reported, there is no bulge.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] senectus:
this looks perfect.. thanks very much :D

it appears to be a quarter of the price of an Sview wireless cover as well!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] leojab:
The receiver will affect the phone NFC feature... There is no top two contacts to work as NFC antenna
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Zueski:
I was iffy about the non oem cases thanks for the review!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
you can use the default case that is supplied with the receiver, or you can use a oem s view or non oem s view, they will all work.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DubineEurokrema:
So, can anyone confirm that this case work on 4.4.2?

I read that only original samsung case work on kitkat, so...
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
have you read the information published by samsung regarding the problem.

and yes, this case will work with any version of android. as long as it's on the note 3.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] galaxy808:
nice, the gold trim on the note 3 is an especially nice touch.

now just waiting where we can get this receiver on our side of the pond....

btw why do Hong Kongese have an infatuation with Korean or Japanese girls lol.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mixxy:
do you know if NFC works through/with the case and wireless charger patch?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] GQnerd:
Aliexpress.com

Since we are talking about aliexpress.com, I'm assuming all of these cases/merchandise are somewhat a Chinese knockoff of the originals? I see some Spigen and samsung s-view cases going for dirt cheap. Can anyone vouch for these or this site?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] tennismonkey13:
Yup! Got the slim armor view. Chip has worked without a hitch, but I also haven't upgraded to 4.4.2 that rendered all non Samsung chips useless. 8 bucks. Window is cut out slightly wrong but I thought I got a good value for something I can put on from time to time.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
Just because it made in china, and is available from aliexpress does not mean its fake, this product is official, try finding the same product from well known branded or a non china brand and please post here before you post you claim.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
will check this out later on to confirm.

update: NFC does not work.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
this is the wrong thread.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
As with all third party and non oem brand, this does not work with 4.4.2, was told the update should fix this.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
With a simple mod I am able to have wireless charging, s view and NFC working, but extra purchase is neccessary, you need to get a NFC antenna.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] sh0cka33:
Care to explain?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
This mod allows nfc to work.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mixxy:
Thanks Kms. What exactly have you done here?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
I killed a note 3 nfc receiver just to get the nfc antenna.:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mixxy:
lol =) Interesting. Did it work well? And did it create a bulge at the back?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
work alright, no bugle as the antenna is totally flat.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] izzet3838:
So can anyone confirm the chatging and sview function works with 4.4.2 without modifications

Verstuurd vanaf mijn S510 met Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] sh0cka33:
I'm fairly sure that Samsung hasn't patched their version of Kitkat to fix the S-window bug yet. They announced that they will soon, in an OTA update, I believe. Depends on your carrier if you'll get it, though I'm sure you will eventually.

edit: There is no reason that wireless charging would be affected by the s-view bug. Charging was never affected, S-view was affected by Kitkat until the next update.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
This receiver works with the official 4.4.2.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Malkozaine:
So from what I am reading I need to rig a new NFC coil to get it to work if I use this? Also will the Pad work with any S-View case or only some and does it work with 4.4.2 or do I need to get the mad to make it work?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
All you need to know is posted here.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Malkozaine:
Ok a better question. Where would I get an NFC coil from? I checked ebay but I didn't see a stand alone coil. Just chargeing pads with the coils built into them. Also I know the answer are in the thread but I was just trying to simple answer to them all so I didn't have to play connect the dots.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
you can't find a nfc antenna for the note 3, you have to get it from a existing reciever.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] makavelisk:
Edit.. Never mind.... Missed the image post. So basically you bought one with the nfc and cut out the antenna. I am going to have to try this. Thanks!!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] marc.knuckle:
Hi guys. i started another thread when asking about the wireless charging covers which was closed and i was directed to here. so i have another question...

I bought a case from Mobilefun here in the uk, it isnt an original but was only £24.99 with wireless charging ability.

so far, so good. the charging part is faultless and although it takes longer than a wire, it isnt as slow as i'd thought it may be. the open close element of waking the screen is also fine with no issues.

there is 2 things i have had as problems but thankfully not often. first the screen sometimes is black with either the notification bar showing or not but no other detail. if i then open it, it wakes the screen fine, if i then close it again it goes to the small window but again with no data etc. a restart sorts it. i have reseated the case this morning and haven't had the issue yet but will monitor it.

the second is that the front of the case inevitably moves a little out of line which is unavoidable and i would guess happens with all these types of cases, genuine or not. if it moves slighlty downwards (the bottom right corner moving left) the windowed screen still stays but if the opposite happens (the top right corner moving left) it activates the full screen behind the window.

is there a way of getting the front of the case to settle better around the shape of the phone to avoid as much unwanted movement as possible?

thanks guys
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] marc.knuckle:

Thanks for the link to that website. I order 2 cases and 2 nillkin charging pads. How long did it took for your package to arrive and did you had any problems with your order?

Any one knows if the spigen magnetic clip works with this case and if there is any alternatives besides the spigen brand?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mixxy:
took about 1 month. I wasnt too happy with the thickness of the charging coil. I dont us it and it just sits idle on my desk. If anyone else wants to swap it for something id be happy to =)

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bubblesmoney:
how do you like your new S5. do you prefer it to the note 3. having used the S5 for more than a week and going back to my note 3, I dont miss the S5. It had some nice features but samsungs region locking on the S5 was different enough from the note 3 to bug me and also my triple sim adapters didnt work although the 1st sim was sensed through the adapter and worked indicating that the adapter was inserted properly. The sim app wouldnt load indicating to me that samsung had blocked loading of sim apps on the S5, since the same adapter works on my note 3 and s4.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
I actually like the note 3 better, the quality is much better, but it's too big, and the S5 is much better on the size.

Lucky fot me is that all phones in hong kong are not locked, as for multi sim, i'm using the S4 mini duo sim version, it works better for me whiles in china.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] bubblesmoney:
Do your dual or triple sim adapters work on the S5. Mine didn't although they work fine on the s4 and note 3. What about call recording using apps like automatic call recorder etc this app and others like it worked fine on the note 3 on jelly bean but not on Kitkat. Looks like Samsung removed some firmware stuff in Kitkat as other Kitkat phones work ok with those call recording apps. Since you have many phones can you please check your other makes of phones on Kitkat and see if any call recording apps work. Need to find a suitable alternative that withs with triple sim adapters and call recording etc plus qi charging for my next upgrade.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
Didn't have time to test it, I have the S4 mini , then I got the note 3 a few weeks later, the dual sim adapter was put into my ruck sack and was damage.

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Naughtybutbritt:
hard bricked kindle fire hd 7" fastboot cable flashing 8.9 bootloader,recoveries,ect.

So i had purchased a fastboot cable to unbrick my kindle fire hd 8.9 out of a boot loop. adb read great, ran fastboot and got it restored finally using kfhd tool. then started to attempt to load 2nds bootloader and twrp and now it seems to be hard bricked! won't even turn on or anything connected with the fastboot cable now and was working flawlessly earlier. major help would be appreciated ;please please--------------------------

ii

edit:- so what i thought was the 8.9" kindle fire hd is actually now that ive opened into hardware had come to be the 7" Kindle fire hd . So i believe the source of my hard brick via the fastboot cable (that was working so i should have known right there) trying to flash 8.9" bootloader, and recoveries, and imgs. Is there anyway out of this mess? the only avenue i could think to even work would be attempt the linux usbboot shorting trick withg the command prompts. only problem im having is find a tutorial or a pic confirming what i support to short on motherboard. all i can find is on different hardware with the kindle fire hd 8.9". ive ran the kfhd utilities but just runs as cant not load img or device not reconized. help..........
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GSLEON3:
This is the

HDX

forum. not the HD. You will probably get better answers from someone actively working on THAT device, than you will here. You really should never mess with things you don't fully understand & you should NEVER use tools designed for older models or other devices. Older devices have different hardware in many instances, so everything is different. Flashing bootloaders or firmware for another device is often time a fatal mistake. I could be wrong, again check in the appropriate forum, but unless you have a custom recovery or safestrap installed, you are likely up a creek, short of jtag & to be honest, with the way the newer devices are, even that is a long shot.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
The shorting trick doesn't work on the HD models, well it does but it doesn't, we need a xloader or uboot(can't remember which) that is signed by amazon when you start the process because the processor is a high security model. Only amazon and TI have those files and they aren't public. If it is hard bricked the best bet is to wait until we get the pinout for a 7"HDs emmc, once we do that you can solder a USB sdcard reader to the motherboard of the kindle and reflash the boot loader from linux and it will run again, so far we can do this on the kf2 and the hd8.9" model but we still are waiting for the 7" HD pin out.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Monotoko:
Hey, welcome!

I just had the same problem, tried to flash a bad ROM and thought I was done for. The information on these forums is a bit scattered so I will just detail what I did to unbrick it.

1. First thing you need to do is have the samsung drivers, if you're on Windows 7 or above, Windows can probably go find them for you when it comes to plugging your phone in.

2. You need to have the original stock firmware, luckily they are essentially all the same so here is the Open Australia version I used (I'm on O2 in the UK) http://www.mediafire.com/?903oq9l7qbmkir4 (password is: mod2xtreme.com)

3: Extract that folder somewhere you will remember.

4: Odin is a firmware flasher, it's what will save your phone. It needs a PIT file, luckily some kind person has already packaged the PIT for the Ace within Odin here: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1270119&d=1345402010

Now you have all the different pieces required

5: Open Odin on your computer and put your phone into Odin mode by holding the power button, volume up and volume down. (and read the screen, it'll ask if you if you're sure and to press volume up) - once you plug the phone in correctly and the drivers are installed Odin should come up saying "<ID> Added!!"

6: A picture paints 1000 words here: http://i.imgur.com/La1r4zE.png - you should ensure you select your PIT file, and all the correct files from step 3 (modem = phone) - click start then wait for it to say "Pass" (I had a nervous smoke here)

7: Boot your phone into recovery by pressing the home button, volume up and power. Let it run through the update and wipe the cache and reboot itself.

8: You're in! It went German on me so I had to change the language at the startup screen, but other than that it's fine.
