[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Scott:
IM looking at the full link here: http://i.imgur.com/rRzpZJU.jpg

And I can see exactly what you are talking about... More to follow...

I disagree with you. However, the pic itself is not the problem... Its the source...

And I do see it on my Note 3...

More to follow...

Its the ****ty ass Google Play png files.

If the problem laid with the display the text below it would not be crisp... Look at how crisp the text is in your image. Also look at your staus bar text...

Its just the green box for install. I think its a dithering issue with the Google Play store images. Thats just my humble opinion.

Also, I can only replicate it when I BLAST the brightness to 100%. At normal Auto Brightness levels I cannot see it.

I dont think you have a defective tab, I think its just a combination of factors. ****ty images and bright back light.

Here is a similiar picture, taken with my Note 3, of the Note 10.1 2014.

Image: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31360541/N10.1/images/2014-02-05 00.09.58.jpg

As you can kinda see, at max brightness i get the same'ish affect.

Also, with my Note 3 if I blast the brightness, I do see the same poor dithering, albiet much harder to see because the screen is so much smaller

I also want to thank you for pointing this out now... I will be FOREVER looking and seeing this and I never noticed it before your pics! :crying:

You have singled handled destroyed the pleasure of using this tablet, lol

Got my refurbished black 2014 note 10.1 16gb from groupon yesterday. So far I would not have been able to tell the difference between this and a tablet that was actually brand new.

I do see what people mean about this tablet lagging more than it has any right to given its specs. Biggest issue has been when using lecture notes, everytime it goes to autosave it stops showing what I'm wiiting for 2-3 seconds before eventually catching up.

Hopefully, after I'm sure it works and wont need to be returned, rooting and flashing will fix that.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jinda628:
I tried screenshots from both the 10.1 and Note 3:

Here's the 10.1, I zoomed and cropped:

I dont see any pixels or squares like in the above post.

Here's from Note 3:

This is obviously better but I think its due to a smaller screen.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] cyburke:
Just picked mine up and it's looking great so far! Well report back.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] neags23:
I don't think you're going to see that effect via screenshots. Screenshots wouldn't show any of the screen's actual pixels, as those are hardware related.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jinda628:
That's the point, that is how I exactly see them when I look at them. When I look at my screen, I don't see any of those rough pixels like in the pics posted above.

I don't look at the screen through a camera lens. I really dont get what the problem is.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jappetta99:
Unfortunately, I had to return my Groupon Note 10.1 because it developed a fairly large cluster of dead pixels on day 2. I know it wasn't there initially because I ran through a checklist of items to look for before rooting. I used it fairly heavy for about 6 hours the second day by installing apps, configuring my experience, installing CleanROM, etc. when I noticed the spot. I tried fixing it with various apps from the Play store, but gave up and started the return process with Groupon.

This did not sour me at all on the tablet. If anything, I wanted it more so I ran to Costco and ended up getting a new 32GB version versus the refurbished 16GB I am sending back to Groupon. Also, Costco has exclusive Squaretrade total coverage for $50 and an instant $50 rebate on the tablet, which negated the sales tax. I walked away spending ~$600 vs. the ~$420 I spent on Groupon, so not the greatest deal, but Costco has excellent return policies and the Costco Concierge will assist you by chasing Squaretrade or Samsung on warranty claims after the return period ends.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] chinesestunna:
How long did it take you guys to get yours? I ordered last Thursday and status still shows waiting for fulfillment...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jappetta99:
I ordered it last Saturday and recieved it Wednesday, despite the big snowstorm we had in NJ. That said, I had a friend confirm it was the same for him, the Groupon tracking page shows California for fulfillment, but once fulfilled and shipped it comes from Edison, NJ via UPS so I live in NJ and got it fast. That said, the method of UPS shipping they used seemed odd as it was delivered to my local Post Office and the USPS delivered it to my door.

Moral of the story: Seems to ship from NJ, not CA, and I live in NJ and it still took 2 days due to transfer from UPS to USPS.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] chinesestunna:
Thanks for the reference! I'm in ATL so hopefully won't be much slower, I've been holding out for Nexus 10 2 since last October and gave up waiting for this so pretty anxious to get it haha
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] chinesestunna:
I called SquareTrade, they will not cover these, according to rep, they will only cover manufacture refurbished that's sold directly from manufacturer or authorized SquareTrader retailer

Anyone having the issue where you try and register it but it says already registered. Cannot claim perks. Smh
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jeems:
Yep. I've chatted with a couple reps and haven't really gotten anywhere. They escalated the issue for me but I'm not holding out hope. I think I was chatting for over an hour. A lot of that "hold on" and waiting 5 minutes. Basically they told me it is one registration per tablet so if you got lucky and the person who had it and returned it hadn't registered for perks you get them. If they already registered it you are screwed. It looks like we are screwed but I'm doing my best to get it. The csr was like if I could give you the perks I would and I said maybe you can't but *somebody* can. That's when they escalated it. I'll post up once I hear from them. let me know if you get them to change it somehow.

Love this tab though.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jherring002:
Is that credit only through groupon? Would I be able to get it if I purchased at best buy?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jeems:
If you mean the "$600" in perks it is on all new tablets, so the ones from best buy, amazon etc would get the perks. The refurbs from groupon seem to be a crapshoot if you can get them depending on if the original owner claimed the codes.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jherring002:
So I get these perks by registering through samsung? This is the first I've heard of the perks. Sorry for being ignorant.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jeems:
yep. check them out here: http://www.samsung.com/us/register-for-your-galaxy-perks/ All the perks are there, you'll have to click on the note 10.1 to see the ones that it comes with. I know at some point they expire so check out the details.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] starfall42:
Go to http://www.samsung.com/us/register-for-your-galaxy-perks/#note-10-1 to register.

The T&Cs do explicitly say "Open-box or refurbished devices are not eligible for this offer." and "Previously registered devices are not eligible for this offer." So it's really a loophole that it's working on most of the Gropuon refurbs. If you did get one where it was already claimed, you are technically out of luck unless you get a nice customer service rep.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] blazeplacid:
Mine came in today. Came in a plain white box and a plastic sleeve.

It has a very very minor scratch. You can't see it when it's on. I'm going to keep it. It looks like a return to be honest.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] pitchdarkice:
If anyone is still checking this thread. The manufacture refurb units, do they come with extra replacement tips for the S Pen?

Thanks!

[Hardware Hacking General] raghavsood999:
Hello, I am wanting to purchase this cool phone which features a octa core processor and has 13 MP camera rear and 5mp front facing camera.

It has also got a big touch screen and comes with Android 4.2 installed.

I have some questions regarding this phone before I buy it.

Questions:

- What is the GPU of the phone and how many CORES does it use?

- What is the clock speed of the gpu or each cores and what model is the video chip made from?

- How much video memory does the phone use in it's chip?

- On goo phone's website the price is $240.00 but im not sure if that is the same price in Australia. Is that phone $240 in AUD or is it a USA site instead or is it listed as cheap because it is in china and for Australian people they must use a currency changer?

I want to know what the DPI of the screen is and also I want to know if the phone is water and dust resistant or not.

I REALLY NEED THIS PHONE because it is a very cheap 8 CPU powered phone but I am unsure if $240 AUD is going to be the price for this phone. Has any one bought a model just like this one for the same price but less cpu's say a quad core model but a 8 core model would cost around $400???

Im not sure and that's why I ask here.

HOw about the android operating system? I Know it is 4.2 but is it kitkat or is it upgradable to kitkat?

Would I be able to execute playstation mobile on it? - you don't hve to answere this question but if you know any thing more please tell me
[Hardware Hacking General] XeKToReX:
If you're in aus, I'd look at the much nicer Moto G, octa core isn't everything and you're likely to get better performance from the quad core in the G than any Chinese octa core phone.
[Hardware Hacking General] raghavsood999:
Why is 8 core not better then a quad core cortex A7 cpu?

Do you know the video chip of the goophone s4 max? I have purchased it but im not sure what the price will come on my credit card as in AUD that's were worries me that I may be charged more then the amount said on the site's webpage.

If you know more about the goophone s4 max and what I have asked can you please put it here, I DO NOT want any other phone except for the 8 core one because that is definitely faster RIGHT since it has a faster 2.0GHz clock speed and 8 cores means it is faster
[Other SmartWatches] |SavageD|:
Interesting, Will give it a try when I have the time. Something new to play with :D
[Other SmartWatches] gigaguy:
Thanks, this works perfectly. I installed everything except "ButtonSaviorPro_v1.6.4_CN_PatchedByCooper". Without that you will have issues calling the "menu" button. I just used a modified keylayout, to setup SU, and then changed it back to the default.

I installed this on 2 MA's, one stock with root (the wife's), and one Cleardroid (mine).

Would be nice to figure out how to use a widget instead of the the MA clock (I know you can use skins, but a widget with weather or something would be nice.)

Also, since this is modifying stock apk's, I wonder if the MA app can be modded for the phone to get some 2-way communication going?
[Other SmartWatches] gigaguy:
I am trying to change the "phone" menu to "enable wifi" instead. seems more useful to me.

Can somebody tell me if this code is correct?

WifiManager wm = (WifiManager) getSystemService(WIFI_SERVICE);

wm.setWifiEnabled(true);
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Razorwindmo46:
So far I couldn't find an answer even on Google so if I just missed my answer somewhere please don't heckle me.

Someone gave my son a Sprint Epic 4G that has been carrier unlocked and setup for Cricket. I want to carrier lock it back to Sprint but all I can find is how to unlock it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jaysoblitzed:
More than 99% sure MEID was the result of a "donor" meid and your device "mating". So to say.

What you need to do is check to see if the MEID matches the one on the battery sticker.

Secondly, it was probably flashed because it had a BadESN.

I can say a few things.

MSL

16-Digit Password

DFS CDMA Tool

Number bumpin till they start humpin.

Direct Message me if you really want to know.

Yosh.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Razorwindmo46:
You may be correct about the bad esn # because the sticker has been removed. As far as the MEID, it only comes up with a hex number with the typed code that has been checked and is clean.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jaysoblitzed:
Well, I can "fix" it for you. Just make sure your device is on 4.1.2. I'll get the MSL n handle it with DFS.

Its an Epic 4g or an Epic Touch 4G?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Razorwindmo46:
Epic Touch 4G. At the moment I don't have it. My son took it back home. I'm not sure what version it has either. There was an update waiting to install and he did it last night.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jaysoblitzed:
Ok that's perfect. When you can direct message me I'll give you a number to text and we can get the fix going.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Razorwindmo46:
Sorry for the long wait, I just got the phone back from my son last night. I think I got the correct esn back. I had to update to 4.1.2 via Kies and now it's showing a Dec for MEID and no cricket.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jaysoblitzed:
Regardless of what it displays a factory restore won't even clear the MEID because the original has to be removed in order to put a valid cricket MEID. If you go to checkesnfree.com and in the dropdown box select sprint and type in the MEID it will let you know if it is a valid MEID for sprint. If not it will state on the side "InvalidESN"

Let me know what it says.

By the way, if you said you saw guides on how to unlock/flash it; its the exact same process except all you need is a S2 sprint MEID and Sprint PRL. Do a factory restore; and it will update via Handsfree activation. You should put the ESN on the Sprint account before doing so. Another good thing to do is put a BadESN and Sprint PRL first and let it update by handsfree and it will put the owner with the badesn info automatically but it will have all the sprint settings again. After that process you can put a clean one then factory restore and it will be brand new stock from sprint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Razorwindmo46:
I did the checkesn.com before you posted this and it said, Sprint = badESN - NCIC = passed - MyStolenPhone.com = passed.

You are correct. Factory reset/restore didn't work but, after doing QBKing77's Unroot / Unbrick the Samsung Epic 4G Touch, it activated. I believe when I told my son to call Prepayd, they may have give him a dummy ESN. Anyway, it is working now. I do appreciate your helping since no one else seemed to be concerned. I clicked the Thanks button for you. By the way, I ordered another phone for him so it will sit until it needs to be used. He is very hard on phones.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Princessccxo:
Anyone who knows about things like this, would know that's quite an offer of help to so generously to offer to someone haha.... All I'm sayin is if she don't want it.... I'd be estatic to take it for her :D Lol .

Really though, that'd be pretty cool of you to do that for someone...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Adam.BomB:
You can probably just get the oneclick file and load that from your pc . Or , install kies lite on your pc and it should reload it to factory specs .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jaysoblitzed:
Anyone ever need to, or information regarding this topic feel free to PM I can guide you through.

yes its english

yes guys its in english
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] summiter:
Nope.. it's the same as 2.17 as far as core OS and radio goes. Only difference I see is the customizations.

I don't expect we'll see a different core OS in a ROM until/unless MS releases an AKU 3 or some other packaged-up set of bugfixes.

Most carriers are super reluctant to release ROM upgrades because of the risks of increased support costs for Upgrades Gone Wild(tm). (meaning bad flashes, bricked devices etc)
