Dear all,

I flashed the French 4.4.2 firmware and it flashed perfectly, first time.

Thanks for the assistance :).
[Galaxy Note 3 General] orly_mihai:
For the German one DBT if you look the other's thread you will see you need flash together with a PIT file to work.The french one change your CSC to XEF?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Dahdoul:
You need to flash it with the German Pit file due the deference in binary size. Look for the pit file its all over the forum.

I flashed the stock German 4.4.2 build using mobile odin with the maintain root option, worked fine? :)

So much for the January update, still no UK OTA in march... Brilliant lol

Im not s much worried about the update as that I need to reset my phone and I want to get the KK before I do it otherwise Ill need to reset it a second time which I dont want to do, takes sooooooooooooo much time setting it all back up again.

I've just picked up a note 3 on Ebay without realising there are different versions (n900, n9005). The one I picked up didn't specify which version it was but is locked to Vodafone so should I assume it's the LTE version? I hope so anyway..

[Galaxy Note 3 General] ixon2001:
BTU will always get the ****ty end of the stick when it comes to updates, while Vodafone released the update we might now see the simfree version sometime this week, that unless we have to wait for more networks to release it first, which could mean a few more weeks of waiting. :/

God how i miss the days when simfree was always the first to receive updates, my Samsung Galaxy S always got updates well before any network released it.

Those days are now sadly gone in the UK.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] androidflea:
This experience has even made me look at the nexus 6 concepts, if a 6 inch screen is available.

There is no excuse for this delay at all, we had the whole third party s cover excuse, but not now, just imagine android 5.0 just imagine how long we will have to wait.

I love this phone, but is this the way it's going to be from now on?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] st3chn0:
If you brought from the UK will be the Lte snapdragon model
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ixon2001:
4.4.2 will be the last major update the Note 3 will probably see this year, Android 5.0 will more likely be 64bit & be a main selling point on the Note 4 with the 64bit Snapdragon 810 4GB of Ram, I've no doubt 5.0 will also be backward with 32bit hardware & come to the Note 3 at some point in 2015.

Other than that, only updates we will now see in 2014 will be for the Gear 2 to work with the Note 3 & a slight chance of the new touchwiz, & maybe a couple of bug fixes but it still be 4.2.2 when all said and done.

The Note 2 got abandoned for a long time before the 4.3 update came out so i can't see the Note 3 being any different.

Edit

Just like to add if you want quick and regular updates then buy an iphone 5S, because with iOS7 being what it is basically a bug fest pile of crap, updates are swift and what they usually end up fixing they breaks something else, which needs another update to sort out. :P

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rahulk3:
Hi Experts,

Model: Moto G 16G

Android version: 4.4.2

Kernel: 3.4.0-g9f5dcdc

Location: India

Service provider: Vodafone and Aircel

Problem Description: SIMs getting disabled on both the slots intermittently.

To resolve the issue: Either restart the phone or re-seat the SIM on the slots.

Troubleshooting Done:

+ Tried good known SIMs on the phone.

+ Tried doing the factory reset.

+ Tried clearing the cache on the phone from recovery mode.

+ The issue persist.

I don't think that this is a hardware problem, if it is i will get it replaced but need confirmation.

When did i start getting the issues:

+ I received the phone and started it without SIM to check if it's in working condition or not.

+ During setup, My i configured the wireless connection and updated the phone from 4.3 to 4.4.2 (till now i had not tried any SIM)

+ Phone rebooted in process of update and then i connected my SIM. It worked for few about couple of hours.

seems like this would be a known issue soon...

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sohotha:
To anyone who has installed Kitkat XXUFNAD and lost write access to their SDcard, here is a solution.

I am not the original person who found this solution , I'm just putting it together here to help others.

You need root access to do this, of course.

1. Use something like root explorer to to go to the root folder

2. From there go to folder system/etc/permissions

3. Look for file called "platform.xml"

4. Edit this file ( your editor should open it in R/W mode )

5. Locate the following line :

<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >

<group gid="sdcard_r" />

<group gid="sdcard_rw" />

</permission>

6. Add this line " <group gid="media_rw" />", so you get

<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >

<group gid="sdcard_r" />

<group gid="sdcard_rw" />

<group gid="media_rw" />

</permission>

7. Save the file

8. Reboot

You should now have WRITE access back for your SDcard.

I have done this on my i9505 snapdragon without any issue.

All the usual caveats apply ie I not responsible etc etc

I can only assume that when Samsung release the official version, they will put this feature back.One of the fundamental reason I have bought and stayed with Samsung is because of the SDCARD possibility.

Press the soft reset pin/button and both soft keys on your universal. Read the disclaimer and confirm by pressing 0

Hi guys, thanks for your response. I guess what I meant to say is that I have rebooted into Corporate Mode as the other version is far too slow. The down side to this is that I can't connect to my 02 GPRS or Receive Media Messages now. If anyone knows what I should do - or how to, I'd be most grateful.

[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danielckw:
I think there is a bug in the exfat driver of tablet Z running 10.4.B.0.577 (4.3), no ROOT, official firmware

Today i copied a .ts file directly from my Mac to the SD card. No problem. ts file can play on the mac, also exFAT file system no problem after check on Mac.

I tested this SD card also on my samusung note 2 phone, also can read .ts file

But on the tab it cannot show that file with the File Commander . I tried another file explorer , it can show the filename but with 0 size.

Pretty sure it is tablet Z problem. :crying:

I restored through KIES and got my Baseband and IMEI back but this thing keeps happening and I cannot figure out why?

It's painful procedure because I did this more then 10 times

First I had to Reflash everything through KIES which makes my phone as DEFAULT

then I had to ROOT and install the ROOTED Original 4.3 then I had to install Clockwork Mod with MOBILE ODIN in order for me to install different ROMS

after that I do FULL WIPE ALWAYS

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] marriedman:
recovery might be the issue

I just had this problem yesterday. You wouldn't happen to be using TWRP recovery would you? I found that if I was using TWRP and Kit Kat AOKP I would have no service and my APN list would be empty. If I used Philz Custom recovery or CWM it would work fine.

I tried going downloading the newest 2.6.3.1 version of TWRP and it made my phone unable to boot. I had to flash another recovery via Odin in order to get back into my phone.

Just a thought.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] beangraff:
I've had this issue as well and for some reason the latest nightlies don't play nice with my phone and recovery I'm using the latest official twrp for t0lte. Not t0ltetmo.

[Windows Phone 8 General] DaviUnic:
If you just changed the platform version in the manifest from 8.1 to 8.0 it won't work - I've already tried that myself and all deployment tools give the same error code.

The only thing from this SDK that I could sideload to my dev unlocked 820 was the new games hub, but besides changing the platform version, I had to remove the OEM_DEPLOYMENT capability as well.

You could, however, try sideloading these into the 8.0 emulator and see if they work.

[Windows Phone 8 General] DaviUnic:
As the name suggests, it has something to do with IE's live tiles, and it seems to me more like a component, rather than an actual app you can use. If you look at the resources, it has a wide tile for IE, which IE itself doesn't offer (yet), so that kinda explains it...
[Windows Phone 8 General] myst02:
Ok, removed TileManager and edited OneDrive so it will work :D

please test and review ;)
[Windows Phone 8 General] DaviUnic:
Isn't it kinda pointless, when there's OneDrive already in the store? Or does this one have some magical abilities?
[Windows Phone 8 General] myst02:
I don't know, I don't think that the app is completely similar to the OneDrive app in the store. I will test it when I get my phone back.

Will these steps bring me from rooted MJ4 "Jellybomb" to rooted KitKat? Anything I need to do 1st?

---------- Post added at 01:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:37 PM ----------

Mainly the question is will this bring me from rooted 4.3 to the point where I can install Freeza's stockish rom through TWRP?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
You need to follow the guidance in the stock tar NAB thread, and hit the OP of the NABD discussion thread in the general forum for the latest info on migrating from MJ4 to stock NAB...

You will need to simply throw that tar file from the dev forum onto PC Odin, no pit file needed, and just flash it. You'll be stock NAB.

You may want to backup all storage, and factory reset your phone whilst in MJ4, prior to flashing, for good measure, but probably unnecessary. That probably part is why I suggest it.

while this method certainly got me twrp, I am not rooted.

Two things, When I got into recovery I get "Seandroid" in red letters, but it still goes into TWRP.

Also, i flashed a .zip of "SuperSU", is that my problem?

When I boot up phone, Supersu says there is no su binary, and root checker app says not rooted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] averymlewis:
You shouldn't need to flash SuperSU it should automatically be installed. ;)

Supersu is in app list, but no option to uninstall from Play or application list. :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] caesar_:
There should be an option in the Super su app itself.

I also tried switching to CWM via Rom Manager, which also seem to have went through fine but when I tried to go into the recovery...I just get a bootloop...I dont know what else to do.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
Happened to me months ago, still dread it, and haven't forgotten.

Sometimes these issues recur, and the only solution of which I'm aware is to flash completely stock, perhaps blow out your internal memory, or at least the TWRP folder in the root of both internal memory and external SD card, then reflashing recovery of choice and your preferred rom.

Good luck!
