[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryanrazer:
If i have Orange (UK carrier) region locked Note 3 model: SM-N9005, can i flash Poland update [N9005XXUENA6]?

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=24151

I saw many people around the EU are flashing this but does carrier - region locked function have an influence here?

I understand region locked is only about preventing other SIM cards to be inserted and there should not be a problem but you know, i would like to know for sure. Is any one here who has done that and can confirm it works?

Thanx

Your region lock will gi away if you do 5mins of calla in your hime country.

Then flash the kitkat

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
It might be very relevant if you are carrier-locked (in which case I strongly advise against) or just region-locked - and even if you are not carrier-locked I would not suggest JUST YET to jump on N9005XXUENA6 Polish (XEO) version - the thing is that your current CSC might be something that is not supported by the multi-CSC in the XEO version and things might not always go well in such conditions. That is why I am a little concerned about going to the XEO version myself - even if now there is a confirmed way to keep root and knox 0x0.

i need some advice.

I have an Unlocked and Rooted SM-N9005 from Europe (XXUBMJ), but I can't use it in Canada, and it says, Not registered on network. is there anyway that I can change my firmware or install a new ROM or a new Modem so I can use the phone with Canadian sim card???
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
It'll be region locked if it's a European model by the sounds of it, try region lock away and see if that works, failing that, a Custom ROM usually fixes it also.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wowowboy69:
So its posssible for me to install Custom Roms e.g. Omega Rom on a Pink Note 3 that was already unlocked? I'm using an Asian SIM and when I bought the pink note 3 for my wife, the phone was for EU SIM. I checked the phone status on download mode, knox has been tripped, binary status to modified/custom etc etc. Looks like the phone was rooted to have region lock away installed and then unrooted. Planning on install Omega Rom but wanted to make sure the phone will still read the Asian SIM.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Check with the custom ROM OP if it has the CSC (sim region) you require
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sepehr70:
I've already did that. I installed region lock away, and region unlocked it. What custom ROM do you think I have to install? Do you have any trusted source so I can get a custom ROM from them?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Check the Android dev section, there's a few decent ROMs in there. - I have pretty much used them all on 4.3 and tried all now on 4.4

EDIT: X-Note is regionfree as is Omega, both are very popular, however SweetROM and AndroidNOW now can certainly hold their own and are just as good (also region free)

If you only flashed the CM kernel then flashing stock should fix it.

I downloaded a internet monitoring app then i noticed: "DRM-protected content store, downloads, media" named apps are using my internet. Downloading about 500kb/s. My internet is limited to 50GB.

Hello to all the xda pros had recently bought an s3 so happy that i had finally got it and wasted no time in rooting using causal worked great then i made the biggest mistake ever i didn't flash a recovery or different rom. Could not choose to many new and cool looking roms. Had got called in to work early and left my new phone at home another mistake. My lovely wife found it and seen att send a update notification thinking this is what i wanted since it was all i could talk about she took the 4.3 update!!! I cant really blame her because she knows nothing about rooting or flashing roms she thought she was helping but now am left with a messy slow laggy phone. I tried to reroot using casual again and it looked like it was working but after it reboot it was running even slower in "safe mode" and supersu says that i have to reroot manually after 4.3. Have tried to root via odin but phone wont go in to download mode no matter how many time i try it always ends up booting in to "safe mode" the only thing i am doing in adding to the custom binary download counter am up to 3 and the warrant counter is at 1. Any advice from the pros would love nothing more to return to custom rom tw 4.3 is acting alot like ios 7.

To disable Safe Mode

1. Press and hold the Power button

2. Select Restart

3. Select OK

Then if you in normal mode try get to download mode. Volume down + Home Button and Power button. Hold all anthill you see Warning screen then press Volume Up.

If Safe Mode continues to display on the Home Screen after restarting the device and a Factory Reset does not resolve the problem, it may be due to a faulty Home button which would be considered damaged hardware.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] norbarb:
If other method not gone work you can try to get off safe mode by :

Go to Settings

1.Select Apps->All (Look for ALL on top menu or swipe to the right to get to ALL)

2.Select Google Services Framework and tap Clear Data.

3.Turn off (shut down) your phone and turn it back on.

See if the phone will be out of Safe Mode.

I don't think you can get to download mode longest you are in safe mode.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kernco:
Sorry for the vague title, but I couldn't think of a concise way of describing this.

I have a T-Mobile HTC One with the GPe ROM installed on it. I'm on 4.4.2 and using ART. I woke up this morning to find my phone in a boot loop. It would come up with the screen that shows the "Google" logo and the icon showing my phone is unlocked, remain on that screen for longer than normal, then reboot and do it again before getting to the actual ROM boot sequence.

I held down the power button to shut the phone off. When I turned it back on, it made it to the ROM boot, where the four colored circles fly around, but then came up with a screen asking for my disk encryption password. I've never set up encryption on the phone. I didn't want to try passwords I use in case this was some kind of phishing, though I'm not sure how that would be possible. At this point I wasn't really in the mood to do much troubleshooting so I did a factory reset from the bootloader and it seems fine now.

I'm just wondering if anyone knows what happened.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Just don't use ART for now, stay with Dalvik. Much stable atm.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kernco:
I wasn't planning on switching back to it. But that's not really answering my question about if anyone knows what happened. Unless you're saying that this is a known problem that happens to people who use ART, but it sounds more like you're just saying since I was using ART and something went wrong, it's a good chance that was why.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
What most likely happened is ART corrupted the system and it forced a bootloop. You may have to full wipe and reflash. I would also advice to stay away from ART. It is not made for users.

I did a factory reset and so far everything is fine. Are you saying there might still be an issue and I should wipe and reflash to be safe?
