[Galaxy Note II General] Reuven007:
I read everywhere that the Note II was updated to Android version 4.3 - all the US carriers.

I own the international version, GT-N7100 (imported by newegg.com from UK). I purchase it because I didn't want to wait for the US carriers to procrastinate with their updates. I thought that having a version that Samsung directly updates will be more prompt.

Here we are, forth week of January 2014 and I still have version 4.1.2

I wonder why is Samsung not updating the GT-N7100 to version 4.3.

It's surprising to notice that not too many people complain....
[Galaxy Note II General] vash_h:
I'm using international n7100 and mine was updated in December. It's releasing region by region. Hold in there brother
[Galaxy Note II General] Reuven007:
Is Petaling Jaya in Malaysia? Lucky you... What's the story with users in the US and/or UK?
[Galaxy Note II General] vash_h:
Yes it's in malaysia.

Did u try checking for updates via kies? It takes forever to receive any updates via ota
[Galaxy Note II General] circuitravi:
also Sri lanka

Sri lanka stil did not get 4.3 update... :( (gt-n7100)

Very slow to releasing their update region by region.................... :crying:

[Galaxy Note II General] dalanik:
Well guys if you're in such a hurry to update (I completely understand - because I was too) then just flash with Odin. Download ROM for your country from Sam mobile and flash it! I did it couple of times because I couldn't wait for OTA (and OTAs wouldn't work anyway becasuse I was rooted)...
[Galaxy Note II General] vash_h:
Yup me too. But I prefer to do it via kies. I go to sammobile and the moment I see my country formate available I connect my phone to pc and update via kies.
[Galaxy Note II General] rchi84:
It's pretty much not in their business interests to give the latest updates to their phones. Otherwise people would not upgrade or change their devices every year.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdawdy:
Samsung Galaxy S4 mini SGH-I257M , 4.2.2

I would like to understand whatever relationships exist among Battery Usage, Cell Standby, & Network Mode.

I am seeing that Cell Standby accounts for 40% of my battery usage - with GPS, Wi-Fi, and Mobile Data all turned off. I would like to be able to reduce this %.

Under Network Mode i have 4 choices ...

GSM/HPSA/LTE auto connect

GSM/HPSA auto connect

GSM only

HPSA only

Will my choice among these affect my battery usage?

What is the difference if i do not choose an auto connect option? I am guessing that auto connect simply means that the phone will choose the best option, so auto connect is not necessary when there is just one choice.

I do not need the extra hi speed of LTE. Rogers coverage in Canada is slightly better with GSM/EDGE than with HPSA. So i am considering setting my phone to GSM only.

Will i save battery usage with this choice? What do ya think?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nelsonoski1972:
GSM only will amount to about 50% battery saving.

Auto connect will chew through the battery life as phone radio has to search for 3G and 2G continuously.

LTE will make you run for your charger by 3 PM everyday.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdawdy:
Thanks. I set my phone onto HPSA Only. I'll see how this works out over the next while.

Hey jinish, install fpsmeter app and play asphalt and mostwanted, and post the average fps here, you should be happy if you get 25+ average fps on high graphics asphalt 8 because even nexus 7 2013 with adreno 320 gets 25 fps avg at high, asphalt 8 also has fps cap so it could be a reason ,silly mediatek never uses good gpus, they just focus on price, they should have included power vr sgx544mp3

I honestly had no intention to review another S4 case (as you all know I do a ton of reviews here, link in my signature), but when I got this case for someone else - it just looked so cool for such a dirt cheap price, I had to review it. So here you go, Review of KLD (Kalaideng) Iceland series slim folio case. http://www.tvc-mall.com/details/KLD...laxy-S4-S-IV-i9500-i9505-i9502-MLC-I9500-212/

You really don't have high expectations when the case cost $3.83, but once you open it up and see how original the finish looks - you'll be surprised. The inner PC holder/shell is super slim with a secure grip and all the precise cutouts for power/volume/camera/flash/speaker ports. It's a typical design with wrapped around sides and open top/bottom. What makes it unique, and I do have to admit it's targeted for ladies, is the finish of the cover. It's obviously PU leather material and feels like that to the touch, but the visual has this frosted finish. Once closed, it should keep S4 screen from scratches, and also has a cutout at the top to continue using a phone even with a cover closed. Just a basic folio case with a very nice finish, and also a fancy packaging at one fantastic price. Here are the pictures.

Since this is for the ladies, I want to make sure guys are not left out :D I had a lot of other stuff ordered from TVC-Mall.com as well, including this cool 11-in-1 multifunction tool: http://www.tvc-mall.com/details/Fas...nction-Tool-with-Free-Leather-Pouch-HHC-2030/

I know it's only $1, but this is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. Measured approximately 69mm x 45mm and about 2mm thick, it's smaller than a credit card, made out of heavy duty stainless steel, and has 11 built in tool which are actually useful and functional. Everything from can and bottle openers, to flat screwdriver, a ruler, a hex and butterfly screw wrench, knife edge and saw blade. The only thing, it doesn't come with a leather pouch per description but rather a thick plastic one. Honestly, I wouldn't expect a leather pouch for $1 anyway. I actually got a few to keep it in my cars. Here are the pictures.

I'm really considering switching to Tmobile with all the crap Verizon is pulling. Tmobile offering to pay ETF's. My question is and I'm not sure many devs will come across this but who's all down to switch and say the hell with you Big Red.

With this new talk of Verizon wanting to control Internet traffic. Enough is enough.

So who's all down to teach Verizon to treat their paying customers better?

Also having the unlocked bootloader on Tmo is a plus.

So they pay ETF'S, unlocked bootloaders, and no annual contracts.

I'd love for everyone to go to Tmo the same day and pickup a Note3 unlocked.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Brandonrz:
Why would you ever do the tmobiles switching program? You have to turn in your phone also making you pay for another note 3, they profit by selling your phone by having money left over after paying the etf. I'm planning on switching by selling my phone for 600+$ paying the etf and I will have over 300$ to pay for another note 3. Verizon can suck my dong, I'm done.

EDIT: And unlimited FU**ING data!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Harleydroid:
Yeah I didn't know you had to pay for a new Note3 if they pay you ETF. So sell the phone then have them pay the ETF?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Harleydroid:
I just started this to see if any and how many folks will switch.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Brandonrz:
Shoot I accidently liked your post, I don't want to confuse anyone. But how it goes is they will pay your etf if you trade them qualifying phone. That leaves you phoneless with no cash to buy a new phone on tmobile. So to calculate your etf fee is $350 originally - $10 for every month completed of your contract. So mine would be 320$ I think. So if I sell my phone on swappa for 650$ and me pay my etf, I'll have 330$ left for a new phone!! You get it?

I'm glad [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] is :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Harleydroid:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] wvuravens-fan:
Come on in, the water is nice. I am a long time t-mobile customer, and I couldn't be happier. Low rates, top phones, good coverage (urban), unlimited international text and data (not a gimmick, I used it in Japan for a week).
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Harleydroid:
I thought you would be able to utilize the zero down program after they pay your ETF.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Brandonrz:
You can, but still. Why would you do that. You would get screwed by both of thier programs.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Harleydroid:
Okay I clearly need to research it a bit more.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] drag&fly:
Sounds all good but look at T Mo's coverage map. Kinda gargles rhino balls..... most people that will stay with Big Dumb Red is for coverage reasons. In more places than not, if you're off the interstate you're out of luck.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Real_JESRadio:
My Sprint LG G2 is on the way. If the coverage has improved since they finally got LTE in my area I'll eventually switch my family over and get another N3. Got the G2 cuz it's free online. Done with Verizon and their locked bootloaders
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] changt34x:
I gave T-Mobile a go with the $30 plan last month. Service is definitely a keeper in urban areas, but not so rosy elsewhere. I suggest giving the Walmart $30 a go on your Note 3s before dumping your Verizon contract, as unlike AT&T, they aren't buying us back.

I frequent Philly, I95 south of there to NC, and I40 west to AK. Every urban area on that route had superb T-Mobile voice/data performance. However, once you are 5 miles out of the urban areas, you're on Edge. I had never experienced Edge while on a highway before, so I set my assumptions based on the .12mbps speed tests, as in it would be fine for simple web browsing/maps. Unfortunately, it is not very usable on the highway. Edge cannot load even simple web pages quickly, and I find it times out quite often when the phone jumps to a new tower. Don't even think about Google Maps or Pandora. The only other issue is handoffs to AT&T roaming towers, very common in western NC and eastern TN. The handoffs are quite crude, dropping calls and ending your data session.

Verizon is the exact opposite, useless in the cities on that route, but incredible everywhere else. I can maintain LTE the entire 20 hour drive. I dropped the T-Mobile plan, as I am keeping my Verizon UL and the Sprint Student Promo with Nexus 5. However, when I can afford plane tickets between only urban areas and/or Verizon takes away my UL data, I'll dump them for T-Mobile.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] wurfel:
The only complaint I have is their service is area is not that good in places. Other than that I have been a happy Tmobile customer.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] drag&fly:
I'm not talking smack on T Mo at all. Their business plan and service rates are fair and unlocked phones are nice. It's just the service you DONT get if you're a heavy traveler. I use T Mo at home in my sim # 3 spot because I do get good data at the house. When I'm in South Texas oil fields I use my # 2 sim AT&T. If I'm in west Texas oil field I use Big RED. The 3 sim setup is nice and I always have service...... my bill is around $200 a month but it's a write off anyway.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] YankInDaSouth:
I thought long and hard about the switch because I too am sick of Verizon's BS. But after it's all said and done I'd only be saving $10 maybe $20 a month. I get a discount on my Verizon bill through work that T-Mobile doesn't offer, otherwise the savings would be greater. When it's all said and done I'd rather put up with the BS and pay the extra money for the coverage.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] wvuravens-fan:
Check with your company, I get 15% @ T-Mobile through corporate perks web page with my company. 85 bucks a month for two lines, unlimited talk, text, and web.

I realize we are at different companies, but if your company is using corporate perks it should be similar.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] YankInDaSouth:
I tried checking my eligibility on the T-Mobile site (you enter your work email) but it said I wasn't eligible. I guess it won't hurt to ask the big wigs at work about it ... I think the City I work for only deals with Verizon, so that may be why.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] shiftr182:
My wife and I switched to Verizon last summer from Sprint. I received a 27% discount from Sprint(for my line) and a 20% discount from Verizon. I pay about $8 more on Verizon, but the service blows Sprint out of the water. My parents had TMO, and ended up filing a claim with the Better Business Bureau because of dropped phone calls, lack of service, poor customer service, etc. (they live about 1/4 mile off the interstate in Boise) TMO let them out of their contract and now they are on Verizon, and happy with the service.

I like the service with Verizon so far. My only complaints are the locked bootloaders on every freaking device and no Nexus 5. Sprint didn't lock anything.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mikeone33:
You will need to trade in your phone or a phone. T-Mobile can have spotty service in some areas.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] badrsj:
Reason I pay out the nose for Big Red - is coverage/ coverage/ reliability.

I do love what T-Mo is doing with opening up the handsets and trying to get business though in most cases you're better off selling your own handset - and buying a T-Mo compatible handset and avoiding a contract with T-Mo.

I had experience in changing to T-Mo - I did not survive a week.

I had dropped calls, I had low signal. In lower Wisconsin I had no coverage.

So I bit the bullet ponied up the cash and headed back over to the Big Red where my only *****ing is the bill :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Easymfe:
If I didn't travel so much for work, I would switch. I tried out T-Mobile right when I was heading out for a trip through Northern Cali, I only made it 1 day before returning the phone and canceling my account. Lol. Data was in and out on the interstates and only stable in the big cities. My Verizon phone was solid 4lte for most of the time, and 3g when it wasn't. Plus I just upgraded 2 lines and kept my unlimited data for another 2 years (had to add a basic phone line for $10 more a month to keep my unlimited).
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BrewersFanJP:
I thought about switching to T-Mobile but the reviews I've heard from people around here is it's great in the cities, but they lose coverage outside of them. According to their map, where I work would get "OK" coverage, and considering I work in a concrete building, I'm sure that means nearly no coverage.

I'm going to stick with Verizon because of the coverage. I'm still grandfathered into some good plans so my cost isn't horrible, but I have some tough choices to make with my contract nearly up and my decision to get the Galaxy Note 3. I still have unlimited data, but average around 2 GB a month so it's not something I absolutely need. I've heard of loyalty plans that would decrease my bill a bit and potentially get me more data than 2 GB, so I'm looking into that.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Harleydroid:
Thanks everyone for your comments. I'm starting to think the coverage for tmo isn't going to work for me. I also have a friend at work that has tmo and his signal at work is terrible. If only they could get better coverage.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] droidstyle:
I would switch to T-mobile if the coverage was better...In the end service and coverage come first, modding and unlocked bootloaders is secondary on my priority list.

I have been impressed with CM11/4.4.2. Runs well for being so new and not yet having an officially 'stable' version yet.

The one issue I have had is with the WiFi restarting after sleep.

KeepWifiOnDuringSleep is set to OnlyWhenPluggedIn. Whenever the tablet is awoken the WiFi stays disabled. Manually turning it off then on again will get it to reconnect but only for a short time, maybe a minute, before it permanently disables again. Only way to fully recover is to reboot.

Note that WiFi is be reported to be 'disabled'. It does not appear to be an issue of connectivity, wireless lease, no signal...
