There ya go - I knew I wasn't imagining it :)

Cheers for that - even though I feel a bit dumb now because I like to think I'm a pretty advanced user (especially when I've had 15 years working in IT and computers as a consultant :) ) and it never even occured to me to go looking for the simple solution :oops:

I guess I should start looking for a new day job ;-)

Hey guys so i received a warrantied phone trough verizon that came with 4.3, i ended up doing the safestrap root method and got it rooted,After a few days i came to realize that the lock bootloaded to me is a big deal and will be returning the phone they sent out to me over this. The problem im facing is whats the best way to take this phone back to stock/unroot. Should i use ODIN with 4.3 stock images or will that brick the phone?

unlocked bootloaders equal choices!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ecltech:
Boot back into your STOCK ROM slot (you do this from the Safetrap Recovery) then uninstall SafeTrap. You can then do a factory reset and you'll be back to the 4.3 no-root or no Safetrap.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hakired:
I've noticed that my Note 3 doesn't always have instant notifciations. Could this be because of Deep Sleep feaeture in 4.4.2? Im running Omni ROm 7.1 which is based on the NA6 official KitKat rom..

I've tried PNF (Push Notification Fixer App) but it doesn't really help. It's Skype and Facebook. Sometimes it's instant but most of the time it's not.

Anyone else having this issues or know a possible solution?

Follow UP Question: How long does it take when Screen is Off for Phone to go on deep sleep? and is there anyway to disable it?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eng3:
When I travel, sometimes, I don't feel like carrying my Nook HD+ with me, especially if I have my laptop with me so I check it in my checked bag. I've noticed that everytime I do this, I end up with a card in my bag informing me that TSA had to open and inspect.

Has anyone else noticed this? Is it just with the Nook or other tablets?

Now when I have it in my carry-on bag stacked on top of my laptop, no one ever needs to take a second look.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpisini:
I'm surprised last time I traveled I forgot to take it out of my travel on. Needless to say I got extra attention from the TSA folks.

Li-on batteries can be dangerous, and have started/almost started fires on aircraft. The FAA wants passengers to have them with them in case something goes wrong with them and they can work with crew members to prevent anything serious happening. There have been airplane crashes where the exact cause of fire was never exactly determined, but there were Li-on batteries listed as cargo ( industrial quantities ). I have never had any catch fire, but I had one which got hot enough to discolor the info sticker on it.

Unfortunately, it would not be too difficult for someone who knew what they were doing to modify a "smart" device into a timer controlled incendiary device...

Sigh..

Over on the DeBrick thread, none of the images (4.3 or otherwise) would work for me, and others with 32gb 4.3 phones. I jtag repaired mine, and made this 32gb image. I re-broke the bootloader on the phone to test it and it works. It requires a 32gb sdcard, I used an off brand class 2 to test with, and it worked the very first time.

So anyone with a 4.3

32gb

, try this debrick image:

32gb_43_knox_debrick.img.7z - 26.91 MB (128 MB decompressed)

if you haven't had any luck with anything else.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Debrick images are independent of the internal storage size.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pfroz:
I would think it wouldn't matter but it does. I have gone over every sites to try to unbrick my phone but none have worked except this. Even with the following method it wouldn't work with 16GB sdcard. Only with 32GB worked for me. Just a little background on my phone setup:

Rooted with CF Rooting method

Bricked by loading NeatROM v3.6 for I9300

That wasn't what I was referring to, I was referring to the phones storage size not the sdcard's size.

I currently have the dock and enjoy using my phone as a night clock.. If I lean the wireless charging dock up at a 80 degree angle will the phone still stay on, and still charge? Anyone who has this, would you mind trying it? Is the phone magnetized to the base? Is the base slippery or rubberized?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Rakcoon:
The coil is about an inch above the bottom of the wireless charging pad. And the phone won't charge. Phone is NOT magnetized to the charging pad.

I have both official pad and one off ebay. The official pad is slippery plastic and ebay pad is somewhat rubberized.

Not a cheap alternative, but I just got a Tylt Vu. Love it! My only gripe is with the way that the S4 handles wireless charging in general.

+1, it's expensive but only because it has multiple coils built in so you can basically just throw it on any way you like and it'll still charge. Great device, with they were just a tad cheaper.

great ,,, it seems like my device is not rooted , by any chance you could show me how to root it ? what files i need for it to be root ? thank you
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
if you want to root you just need to flash twrp 2.6.3.3 custom recovery. Enter recovery then exit, you'll be prompted to root your phone. After install SuperSu apk ok Superuser. Btw you'll probably loose root when you'll update the phone ota.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mangojaijai:
ok, if i rooted the phone will i still able to do ota update ? or the ota update has to be stock rom to update?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
It should update with root but you'll probably loose root access after any OTA. You then will need to root again. I converted my phone like you with the 3.22.1540.1 ruu and rooted it with twrp recovery. Then I flashed back stock recovery and I had no issue updating ota twice (4.06.1540.2 then 4.06.1540.3) even if I had root. But I lost root privileges and needed to root again.
