[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FeralFire:
The SD card issue that you mention is not a bug. It would never be patched. Kitkat handles external SD card differently. Apps which want to write data to it need to have a different permission. As of yet, not many apps have been updated with the new permission. Butin time, you can expect most of them to get updated.

In the meantime, you can root your Kitkat rom and change a simple value in an XML file. It will give all apps the permission to write to the external SD card.

The differences between 4.3 and 4.4 are subtle. The status bar icons have changed to white. And Google has enforced it. So every vendor has to make white icons. Honestly, they look nicer to me than the ones Samsung had earlier.

The phone is noticeably faster when turning the screen on and also when unlocking.

Another thing I noticed was a slight improvement in the multiwindow functionality. You can maximize one of the two apps over the other one without it closing. Very useful when you need one of the apps to use the full screen for a small duration of time.

Kitkat also provides native support for wireless printing.

Not much else I can think of right now. But take a look at kitkat's changelog. Just google it.

The only third party accessory not working is the S-view cover. You can use the exposed module by MohammadAG to fix that.

Also, Samsung has admitted to the issue and have commited to fixing it in an OTA update.

Hi

I just upgraded to 4.4.2 and the only problem am having that {VLC app} doesn’t detect the media inside the Sd card other then that everything works as it was on 4.3(SD).

Overall the 4.4.2 feels smooth and fast.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex9995:
Hello! I am new to this forum but I am in a little fickle.

I have the Samsung Note 2 TMOBILE and couple weeks ago, I updated to 4.3 through regular OTA. I then rooted and flashed Cyanogenmod 11 and thus, voided my Samsung Knox Warranty bugger thing. I then attempted to go back to stock by flashing stock 4.1.1 through Odin and it worked! I tried to do OTA update again but I realized that the Samsung Knox Void kept me from reaching update services... So I was stuck at 4.1.1 Stock. From there, I was able to flash other custom roms and everything worked.

However, this is a problem for me. The 4.1.2 update from Tmobile was what enabled LTE on my note 2. So right now, I have the old baseband(?) that does not allow LTE. I even attempted to flash a non-knox 4.1.2 (which allowed LTE) through Odin and everything worked until the last second, but it flashed FAIL and I was unable to update my baseband(?).

I was wondering if there is another way to enable LTE by updating to 4.1.2 in any way? Or is this completely unable due to the Samsung Knox?

Thank you in advance.

Hi, first great thanks ton Tim for this rom,

when i reboot the rom, (power only) bootlop, rom start only with vol- & power (coldboot), vol- + power (10sec) and vol+ don't start TWRP

do i reinstall TWRP ?

i installed KK4.4.2#019 with succes (from 4.0. root stock), i made full wipe (SYSTEM, CACHE, DALVIK CACHE, DATA, INTERNAL STORAGE), installed roms & gapps, and wipe cahce & dalwik cache again.

Thanks for your advice
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
Lets answer a few questions to see where you are at:

1 - What happens when you just hold the POWER button for 10-12 seconds. Screen should go blank and reboot. When it reboots, does it get to the KatKiss animation, or boot to TWRP, or get stuck on the Eee Pad Logo?

2 - When holding VOL DOWN and POWER for 12-15 seconds and then you wait, do you see the 2 icons (Android and WIPE)? Do not select either, just let it boot to Android and see if it boots (this is a cold boot).

3 - When you press VOL DOWN and POWER for 12-15 seconds and then hit VOL UP when you see the small white text about RCK, does it boot to TWRP?

4 - What version of TWRP are you running?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jh1969:
The problems seems to be solved, after coldboot i let my pad for few hours on line and when i came back yesterday night to use it everythings work fine, no bootlop with power button and twrp 2.6.3.0 start.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Jaernyx:
I did a quick search but couldn't find anything that was similar to my particular keyboard woes.

Basically I just got my HTC one replaced (due to blown speaker) and this new one has the slowest keyboard I've ever used. Every two characters or so the board will completely hang.

It acts as if my finger is still on the screen wherever it freezes at and freezes for around 2/3 seconds each time. Every two characters or so. At least once a word.

It does it on the stock ROM (4.3), on ARHD(4.4), and any other Roms I've tried. It does it with the stock board, swiftkey, and googles board.

It wasn't an issue with my old One, and while I want to say its hardware, scrolling is smooth, any other touchscreen interaction is smooth. It is simply native to the keyboard. It makes texting and any other typing an absolute nightmare.

Does anyone else have similar issues or a fix that they can think of? I'd be willing to try anything as I do a lot of typing on my phone. I'm on my third One and its getting a bit ridiculous. Thank you very much for any help. I appreciate it!

Hi everyone! great info on this site. been lookin around for a few hours now. Ive had my Qtek9090 for almost a year now. Trying to get a grip on this whole UPGRADING the ROMs idea. which brings me to my question.

I am a firm beliver of the whole "if it aint broke, dont fix it" saying... however i would like to upgrade my PDA for legitament reasons...

I am not interested in going to MOBILE 5. from what i have gathered it has conflicts with TOMTOM NAV 5 (which i use everyday) and other conflicts that convince me otherwise.

However, my PDA does hang randomly causing me to "soft reset" and sometimes when i call people they cannot hear me but i can hear them..

I am just curious as to which upgrades specifically i need to rid of said problems.. (If the upgrades fix other "bugs" that doesnt hurt either.. but i dont want to open the door to more problems..)

Thanks in advance everyone.

P.S. - how do i get my profile to allow me to choose qtek9090 and rom dates from the drop down boxes? i added the correct info to signature box, due to the fact that i could not add it initally.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oded_sk:
Hello,

I recently upgraded from Xperia Arc S to Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505.

I bought my device from Hong Kong, with HK firmware. After I opened the package I put my SIM inside,

the reception was not very good. I was instructed by the company to use GSM only since there is no

LTE network in Israel as of today.

I flashed a couple of ROMs since and today I am on MIUI v5 which is my favorite, the reception remains

the same in all ROMs, quite bad compared to my old Xperia Arc S.

I was wondering about basebands and modems, I have been watching those two names floating around

the forums quite a bit and I never got around to playing with those.

So my questions are as follows:

1. Is there a different between modem and baseband or are these two just different words that refers to the same thing?

2. Does changing a baseband/modem can help get better reception?

3. If the answer to 2 is yes, which one should I get?

Thanks,

Oded
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Yes modem/baseband are the same thing. Go to SamMobile website Google it, then go to the firmware section, choose the S4 find your carrier and see the latest rom for your carrier in the file name will be some letters and numbers like XXNA5 etc. This will give you a base to start with. Or tell me your operator and I can take a look.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oded_sk:
Thanks for the quick reply. How do I find out which firmware I need to download? Israel is not in the list. My carrier is called Orange. http://orange.co.il/

behind the battery it says:

GT-I9505

SSN: -I9505GSMH

RATED

Made by...

Imei...

S/N...

EDIT:

You didn't answer if the incorrect baseband can cause bad reception... it sounds to me like it does but I just want to make sure. :)

I also noticed that when I reboot my device it goes back to WCDMA only automatically so everytime I reboot/power off I need to reset it to GSM only using *#*#4636#*#*

The problem is that Israel is not on that list, I think because we don't have LTE network and my device is LTE.

My carrier is using GSM network only.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Israel don't sell the I9505 officially, they have the I9500 available from your carriers.

Looking at the I9500 with Orange the latest I9500 modem is: I9500JKUEMJ9

Obviously do not flash the I9500 modem but you can try XXUEMJ9 from the I9505 instead.

From here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2192025

Download the modem and flash via Odin. You can any of the I9505 modems. Just try until you get a good one, and as for LTE it doesn't matter in the network settings you will obviously be choosing 3G option instead.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oded_sk:
I see, well, it didn't work, I flashed about 7 different modems and I still get bad reception indoors and good reception outdoors.

I will try to test other SIMs of other carriers on this device to see if reception improves.

Depends what bootloader your on, I'm assuming your on the new bootloader so you need to flash both the LTE and GSM modems.

I was just wondering I enjoy the functionality of a third party S-View cover that I purchase and thought if anyone has been able to make some sort of tweaking to the S-View feature. For example, the S-View missed text message notification makes you open the samsung messages app when my default is Chomp Sms. I was thinking maybe there is a way to change the sms app to whichever one a user wants or also change the default phone app for an app such as dial one. I've looked around everywhere and seeing that this is an awesome phone and this forum has awesome developers and people maybe making this suggestion will be helpful for some.

I'm running AOKP Toro JB MR1 milestone 2 on VZW. I use rocket dial for my dialer. It seems this is a recurring process. I flash the ROM install my favorite apps, things are snappy and new for a while and then slowly the phone regresses further and further into a lagging and frustrating experience speed wise. Button presses take longer and longer to register in all apps, looking up names in rocket dial takes 2-3 seconds for each button press to register and sort the contact names by each additional character. What usually breaks it for me and forces me to reflash etc. is the call performance. It will take 10-20 seconds or more to connect a call once i hit the dial button before i start to hear the ringing tone. If i'm already on a call and have an incoming call on call waiting, when i try to switch over i instantly hear very loud static that starts and stops every 1-2 seconds and then the phone drops both calls. When this starts to happen i get frustrated and try to reflash the ROM. How can i determine what is causing these issues and eliminate the culprit? Is it too many apps taking up some specific kind of memory in the device, or is it a specific app that may be causing it. I just don't know of any way to do performance testing and drill down to the root cause. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you for your time.
