[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TwasBeats:
Hello everybody,

I have an unlocked (debranded) romanian N9005 currently rooted using Mobile Odin Pro with Knox intact on 4.3 MJ7. With the current release of 4.4.2, I read that I need to update the bootloader if I flash it using MOP or else I'll experience bootloops.

Updating the bootloader won't be so bad assuming I'll be at least able to update to newer options with root and Knox intact since other then App Ops I can't think of any reason to downgrade to 4.3. But my worry is that once I update the bootloader, if I will ever have to turn my phone for a repair (presuming it will be something that's not caused by my modifications) I won't be able to re-root my phone without tripping Knox (since even without having Knox tripped I'd have to get rid of root before handing it to Samsung) because I won't be able to downgrade to 4.3 so I can re-root using URLDV. So basically, I also want to know if it's possible and worth waiting for a supposed method to downgrade to 4.3 that's somehow dependent on this bootloader I have. This is my first Android phone and that's why I'm not very familiar with what developers can do for these kinds of situations.

Thank you!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Chances of downgrade happening in the future are slim to non existent.

Upgrading, via Odin to Official ROM won't hurt your phone. - If you update the bootloader you Must upgrade the ROM also.

You won't be able to re-root your phone unless you update via Mobile Odin - correct.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TwasBeats:
So basically you say that I should wait for Samsung to unlock their bootloader sometime in the future when the phone inevitably goes out of the spotlight?

I was talking about upgrading to the official rom and thus updating the bootloader too.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Won't ever happen, Samsung have locked them on purpose. - Same happened on MJ7 downgrade was impossible, Samsung class downgrading as a security risk hence them blocking it.

Was just checking.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TwasBeats:
It's one thing to not let you downgrade without tripping Knox which is fairly reasonable but not letting you downgrade at all even when you have tripped Knox and having the phone deemed by Samsung as a security risk is ridiculous. It may be my first Samsung phone but chances are it's going to also going to be my last one if they continue this ridiculous policy.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Welcome to Samsung lol.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TwasBeats:
Is it possible that Samsung might release 4.4.2 for N9005 in one of regions it's available? I read that the Mexican N900W8 has the bootloader unlocked.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OMG-FFS:
You're not alone, it's not my 1st Samsung phone but it might be the last one.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
Apparently you can upgrade with MOP, will still require a factory reset so backup, by flashing KK with MOP then using PC ODIN to flash the bootloader (and MODEM?). You need the broken up rom though...

Don't know for sure as I had already tripprd Knox long ago and updated to KK...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TwasBeats:
I was well aware of that but my main concern is a downgrade solution would get developed that requires the old bootloader after I've presumably already updated. Anyhow I think today I'll just update today and get rid of a worry.

Wiping everything isn't necessary, but I will still do it.

[HTC One Mini] PuffDaddy_d:
I recently received a phone storage full notification on my HTC One Mini, which surprised me because I don't have a ton of apps (mostly stock ones that came with the phone), and less than a gig of music, plus 3 gigs of photos/videos. I checked the "storage" calculator under settings and it showed the various categories that are taking up the most space (e.g. apps/music/photos/downloads/other). What I discovered was that "other" was consuming over 5 gigs of my storage space! I plugged my phone into the computer and started navigating through all the folders on the phone and can't seem to find the culprit.

What could it be?

I deleted all but my most important text messages (that barely made a dent in the storage), cleared my browser cache (still did very little), and now I don't know where else to look. Any suggestions/thoughts?
[HTC One Mini] RuffBuster:
Use DiskUsage from playstore that will better show what the biggest users of space are.

[HTC One Mini] PuffDaddy_d:
Simply amazing! DiskUsage revealed that Google's Music Streaming App (All Access) is consuming nearly 5 gigs of my storage space! I don't download any of the songs I play, and yet they appear to be stored locally on my phone somehow. Is this how it's supposed to work or is something wrong? Does anything bad happen if I delete this stored data?
[HTC One Mini] RuffBuster:
Inside of settings of Google music you can disable caching of music. If you delete the folder nothing bad will happen but it will fill up again unless disabled . Cache can also be cleared via app.

Hi All,

I just got my hands on a Note 3 N9005 which I ordered from http://mygsmstore.com/242-samsung-n9005-galaxy-note-3-lte-32gb-black.html, in US, and delivered via a friend here.

Now, the box has the SIM Lock EU sticker in french (so am guessing this is a France N9005). But as per the link and my talks, this is factory unlocked (yes, I asked this again from the guys @ gsmstore).

Please bear as I am yet to go ahead with the initialisation and configuration, but am asking my queries first.

My queries follow -

1. Although I am yet to check this, will I get the KitKat etc updates OTA here in India on this device?

2. And these will be the French/EU ROM, then?

3. Will I need to make any configurations / settings for GPRS / 3G here in Delhi?

If anyone has any idea or steps which I can follow, I would be obliged.

But please keep it simple, I am a techie but a new one in Android.

(Mods: I have posted this at the Indian thread too for any help, please let me know if that's an issue, thanks.)

Thanks all.

Chetan
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
It'll be EU region locked. You can try CF's region away and see if that fixes it, if not then you'll have to use a custom ROM.

Yeah you'll have to configure the 3G but it's usually just adding your carriers APN settings.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rahman3412:
well first of all if you haven't put a simcard in your phone then read what regions are mentioned in that sticker on the box and try to arrange for a sim from that region, because you'll have to insert it one time in the beginnning for the device to release region lock, then operate with whatever sim you want

i don't think there will be any such thing as french rom, even if there is the difference will be very minimal, so no worries there, and yes you can still get the ota updates as well

lastly, no you don't have any special settings for 3g;although you will get a message from carrier it self regarding gprs settings as soon as you switch your phone on after inserting the sim and then you can set them as default(although the phone it do it automatically)

let me know about the region lock though.

cheers.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckhurana:
Hi radicalisto & rahman3,

Thanks for the replies guys! An update, i put in the Delhi Vodafone SIM in, Calls / GPRS are up! Not sure about the 3G though, will need to check that,

Now, need to check how the updates happen. And I also need to check the apps which I should have before I start using this...

Also, please advice on taking backups? Via APP, Via KIES? How should i do these?

Let me know guys, I am an Android starter, so will need some start tips, although will surely pick up fast!

Thanks again!

Hi buddy

I went ahead and got this beast from g s m store - arena the link is as below -

http://mygsmstore.com/242-samsung-n9005-galaxy-note-3-lte-32gb-black.html

i got this delivered in the us which was brought back by a friend. If you want it to be delivered in india the cost is a bit more for shipping but i am not sure about the taxes octroi or custom duty

The device is unlocked and working fine on Vodafone Delhi

Only thing to keep in mind is that there is no warranty in india.

As for the taxes for local delivery it may vary as totally depends on the custom officer

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pi_:
Hello everyone, I've been a long time lurker of these forums and finally decided to make an account. I'm hoping you great people can help me out here.

I'm going to be purchasing a 16gb nexus 5 soon ( so excited! ) and will be getting a 32 gb flash drive to use with an OTG Cable. Now here is the question, If I was to buy an OTG Y Cable would I be able to plug one end of the cable into the flash drive and the other end into the charger for simultaneous charging and flash drive reading? I plan to watch movies from the drive and would like to charge my device at the same time.

Here is a link to the cable http ://ASIN.cc/TtdyqA

Now If this isn't supported right out of the box, what custom kernel/ rom would I need for it to work?

Would a certain charger with more power output be required?

Thanks In advance for any help!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Den in USA:
I have already bought and tried a OTG adaptor for my Nexus 5 to read my flash drive. It does not work. Later I read that there are different mini USB recepticles on Android devices, some support HOST, some OTG. When I plug in my adaptor and flash drive, the LED on the flash drive blinks, but when I open an file manager and look at the /mnt folder, there is no sub-folder for USB drive. I hope I am wrong and someone corrects me and tells us both how we can do this!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daisun:
The Nexus 5 can act as a host for USB OTG. You need to either root and use a otg mounter app. Or you can stay stock and use Total Commander and pay for the USB stick plugin.

Whether you can use a OTG Y cable or not I'm not sure.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex240188:
I have just tried this out myself.

The answer is no.

My setup is a little different than your but the result should be the same.

I know this because I have used this exact same setup and had both charging and host at the same time on a previous phone but it doesn't work.

I use a powered USB hub > Otg cable.

There is no charging at all with this device.

Plugging a USB stick into the hub pops up stickmount and mounts properly so the setup works fine. Just no external charging
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex240188:
Actually ignore this.

it looks as though it is actually working. Though confusedly

in battery info

Plugging in normally via Mains gives "Charging (AC)"

Plugging in normally via USB gives "Charging (USB)"

Plugging in via my Powered Hub gives just "Charging"

so it is recognizing an input voltage

though i get no charging animation on the battery icon in the notification window

i can only see it charging in the battery info.

I will leave it a while plugged in via OTG and see if it actually goes up

Sorry the picture looks more transparent on my phone.

but you can clearly see the battery info page behind 82% - Charging

EDIT: It is charging but looks like its even worse than trickle charge.

after the screenshot posted below it dropped to 81%

I then put and left it connected to the Hub with the USB Flash drive in.

30 minutes have passed and it has risen to 82%

so that's 1% gain in half an hour (note this is with screen off doing nothing aswell)

if this was to be used while playing movies from an external hard drive it would still drop.

but there is merit to using a Y cable (or powered USB hub in my case) as it means the device connected will be drawing current from the Hub/Y cable instead of your phone to power it
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pi_:
Awesome, could you post a picture of your setup and a amazon link to the hub you are using?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex240188:
This is the Hub I Use.

It would not be my first choice but it was the only powered hub available at my local store so thats what i went with.

Basically has 3 components.

AC In

USB Out

4x USB in

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hub-Usb-Por...F8&qid=1390662976&sr=1-36&keywords=AC+usb+hub

Just hook everything together. make sure hub is on before plugging into phone else your phone will power the hub

Gentlemen,

I need your help, just steps please how to connect ActiveSync 4.1 to O2 WM5 (Ivan's ROM). I have tried evrything and still can't get connection.

I can use wireless modem over BT (without setting any com port - kind of mistery for me!) and brows internet on my Laptop via PDA. But no luck with ActiveSync.

I'm lost and need very simple instructions what to do :-)) Thanks.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] HDuser:
WM5 Does not support Wireless sync as MS$ have decided that this is a security issue.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] COM:
truly, MS is a black magic.

somehow I did manage to establish activesync via BT, and sync my contacts. I think, trick was to activate BT discovery mode on PCat exact moment when activesync start searching on pda.

nevertheless it is running now on my desk.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Bobo-L:

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Midget_1990:
MS only stopped sync over wifi, not BT.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Postman Pat:
bluetooh active sync

I found that I had to get my Bluesol working first (bluetooth hosting program) then I would start active sync on pc then start bluetooth manager on ppc then start active sync fron list of blue tooth short cuts this was after setting com ports on Bluesol it was a lot of mucking aroud to start with but once it was setup it connects fairly easily now hope this helps but it is important to set up a com port with bluesol first so that active sync can look for it then set up the same com port in active sync on the pc
