[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solarenemy68:
You have not read about safestrap yet have you? You can't really flash anything to this phone but safestrap gives you sort of a work around at the cost of internal or external SD card space. As for CM11, that is a big no. Only slightly modified stock like ROMS work right now and as I said they are not truly flashed to the device. Safestrap lets you set your phone up sort of like a dual or multi boot PC. At boot up you pic which of up to four ROMS you want it to use.

Any word on if/when that will be a possibility?

Also, meant to ask earlier(it's also a little too late since I've already done it)does using Kingo Root disable Samsung/AT&T updates like KitKat?(still blows me away that KitKat has yet to release for this phone on AT&T)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rukbat:
Nothing to do with RAM. RAM is where apps run. When you install an app it gets installed to storage (think of storage like the hard drive on a desktop computer).

In Windows, the more free RAM you have, the better. In Android, any unused RAM is wasted RAM. As soon as you free up some RAM, Android's memory manager is going to load something in the newly freed space. RAM cleaning programs are a waste of battery, a waste of time (both yours and the computer's) and a waste of storage (the space they're stored in). Android has a great memory manager - let it do its thing.

None. You'll be using storage to store su, busybox and SuperSU. Rooting has nothing to do with RAM.

Install Nova Launcher. It's an app, not a ROM, so there's no warranty issue, no bricking issue and it's a welcome change from the monkey-designed TouchWiz. (The old joke that if you sat a million monkeys at a million typewriters for a million years, eventually they'd have written all of Shakespeare's works? They'd also have written TouchWiz.)

The amount of RAM an app uses is determined by the app, not by the ROM or the launcher (which is the "look" of the phone when you turn it on).

The stock ROM works, doesn't use that much storage (I collect apps like junkyard dogs collect fleas, and I have just a hair under 29GB of free internal storage - and a lot of junk apps I have to uninstall, because I just downloaded to help people. And as far as bugs go ... I haven't seen any in general (I had to return 2 Note 3s and one of the ones I have now, which is a refurb, may also have to go back - but that's all hardware issues). If you want looks you change launchers and lock screens. (And there's a lot you can do with the settings to make things look different.)

There's really only one reason to root - because you need (or really want) to run an app that needs root permissions.

There's really only one reason to run a different ROM - because it has features that you want that the stock ROM doesn't.

All the rest is experimentation, fun and watching geniuses (and there are a lot of them on xda) at work. But remember, rooting alone voids the warranty. ROMming not only voids the warranty, it can mess up your phone. Is it $700 worth of fun? That's for you to decide. Rooting (as long as you don't use root status to mess anything up) is safe. ROMming, not so much. Still fixable - in most cases - but the first time you're stuck in a boot loop, you'll panic longer than it takes to reflash the phone.

If you run Kit Kat you'll free up some RAM, but the official update will be out soon anyway

Turn them off.

People are taking molehills and making Olympus Mons out of them. There are so many much simpler solutions to so many of the "problems" people want to "solve" by rooting or changing ROMs.

Oh, I forgot one other very important reason to root, and as a child of the 60s it should have been the first one to occur to me - sticking it to the man.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IcyRhythms:
Thanks for all the help to those that responded. The last reply in particular would have been very helpful had a I not jumped the gun yesterday. I rooted my phone yesterday. DIDN'T try anything else like new themes/roms. Just rooted the phone. After about an hour the phone having issues. Freezing. Apps not opening. Then, I unrooted. Haven't had a freeze since, but the phone is still doing odd things it wasn't doing before. Apps appear to be taking longer open etc...I went to send a text message about an hour ago and when I clicked on the text to begin typing the big envelope icon covered the entire screen looking very pixelated. ugh....

How can i install teh rom when i dont have root and cwm?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marko41297:
Yeah, these guides have zero logic.

1. In order to root your device, first you will have to unlock your bootloader.

2. To make TA partition backup, first you will need to root your device.

Seriously? How the f*** am I supposed to backup my TA partition without root?

---

I installed latest 4.3 using Companion. Now I want to root my device, backup TA partition, unlock bootloader and install DooMKernel. Is there any normal tutorial/guide for this? C5303.

Update: I guess I will wait for our lord and savior DooMLoRD to find new rooting process.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parkside:
The guides are out there - I don't have the time or inclination to do all the research and post links but the process is relatively straightforward, especially if you are happy to unlock your bootloader, you'll need a decent internet connection for all the downloads though.

Install flashtools and install the necessary components for it to work

Download a 4.1 ftf build that can be rooted using the Doomlord exploit

Download a 4.3 ftf, the country doesn't matter (people saying the Australia one is buggy are being hysterical), but obviously you want a c502 one if your device is a c502 and so on.

Download the 4.3advanced kernel

Dowload the supersu zip and save it to your external sd

Back up data on your internal sd as this will be wiped

after you've got all the downloads together it will probably take an hour or so. Unlocking the bootloader took me a while first time because I'm stupid :) But it does take a while to get used to flashtools, the flashing process takes 5-10 minutes each time, you have to reboot a couple of times etc.

Flash 4.1

Root it

Back up your TA

Unlock your bootloader

Flash a 4.3 ftf

flash the advanced kernel

Boot into recovery

Install the supersu zip

reboot your 4.3 phone it will be rooted

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fade2black101:
Since upgrading to 4.3 on my Note Ii, I have noticed that when the pebble is connected to my phone, it causes the sound quality to diminish significantly when using my Bluebuds X bluetooth earphones. Sort of like resembling a low bitrate MP3.

This doesn't seem to be a problem on the Nexus 4 or on the 4.1.2 version of Android that was on my Note II before. It feels to me that when the pebble is connected, the buggy and broken bluetooth drivers switch to a low bitpool version of A2DP which sound like complete and utter cack. It reverts back to better quality (perhaps APT-X) when the pebble is disconnected.

I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions, as it is a bit of a dealbreaker for me and, quite frankly, a massive massive pain in the ass which is prohibiting me enjoying the phone & pebble properly. The only thing stopping me switching to a different phone like the HTC One or Xperia Compact is that I can't be sure the bluetooth doesn't also have the same problem on those, as they are also on 4.3.

Thank you for any help.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fade2black101:
Just tested this on a HTC One (also on 4.3) and it has the exact same issue. Seems to be a problem with Android itself.

I hope the Kit Kat update gets a move on...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fade2black101:
Just tested this on a 4.4.2 HTC One and the sound artefacts are still there with the Bluebuds X when the pebble is connected.

This is most disappointing as it now means I'll have to sell my Pebble given my lack of hope that a Kit Kat update on the Note II will fix this incredibly annoying issue. Yet it seems to work fine on a Nexus 4...

Android can be such a mess sometimes!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmead1143:
Hi all - I'm on the cheap Tmobile plan (500 mg/month) but I really don't need 4G that much. Ideally I'd like 4G to only run when in the web browser, youtube, etc - when I really need fast speed.

If I'm in google music, facebook, reading email, etc - I really don't need FAST speeds - 3G is more than fine.

Anyway to set up 3G as the normal radio, then auto-toggle to 4G when specific apps open?

Ideally I'd only like to use the fast 4G when needed, like downloading videos, youtube, etc.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diamond12:
I don't remember if you need to have your phone unlocked for the menu to be enabled but it's under System settings -> Tethering & networks -> Mobile networks -> Network mode.

You can also run the *#*#INFO#*#* code -> Phone information.

You may want to check with T-Mobile if switching to GSM mode will stop you from using up your 4G allowance (if that's what you're trying to do). I've seen no indication to that.

Re-reading your post, there is no 3G mode anymore, since they upgraded 3G to 3.5G which they call 4G. So your choices are either GSM (2G), WCDMA (4G) or LTE.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dallashigh:
All data usage counts against your quota, even 2G. Your phone is not going to use more data simply being on LTE. The proper way to manage data usage is to disable auto-sync and turn off mobile data entirely as much as possible.

Doesn't GravityBox have the smart radio option? I didn't have much luck with it at first, but seems to be better now.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmead1143:
Okay so for Tmobile, no matter how I get the first 500mg of data (3G,2G, etc.)- that's when the 4G shuts off? I thought I might be able to "save" 4G until I really needed to use it.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dallashigh:
That's correct. Also, 4G doesn't really shut off. You will still be on LTE or HSPA+ when available, but the speed will be limited. The system doesn't actually kick you off 3G/4G it just reduces your speed.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmead1143:
Okay that makes sense - so I'll still be on 4g (orlando) but just throttled at 128k or less. kk thanks

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mlampcov:
I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this issue.

I upgraded my 8125 to ROM 2.17.7.2 WWE and Radio Version 02.07.10 and it seemed to perform much faster.

Lately I have noticed that at random intervals while on a call the radio audibly "clicks" and drops not only the call, but the connection to the tower also, and must re-establish the connection. Very annoying.

Also, the phone will randomly lock-up and become completely unresponsive to any inputs. It won't take calls, respond to any buttons including power, nothing, just frozen. This will happen about once a day, and will even occur while on the charger. Just walk over to it and it's dead. Fixed by a soft reset.

Is anyone else having this issue? It's the strangest damn thing. I'm using an old ATT SIM card just as in FYI.

Thanks,

Marc
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] summiter:
It could be a SIM compatibility issue. I don't know what SIMs were issued by ATTWS, but if it's a Gemplus then it may be the cause. Cingular will swap the SIM for a new one if you go to a retail store.

As for the lockups - could be related to the SIM, but I'd also be interested in knowing what 3rd party apps you ahve installed.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] PaulJeter:
Don't think that it's an "Old SIM" issue

I don't think that it is the SIM. I exchanged my old SIM for a new one when I bought my 8125 and have been experiencing the same dropped signal (It not only drops the call, but the signal has to completely reset).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] GliTCH82:
Is there any chance you are using Exchange activesync or Direct Push email
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mlampcov:
I am using Exchange Activesync but not direct push (I turned it off to see if it was the culprit).

As for installed Apps, I have:

TomTom 5.2 (I think that's the version)

Batti

SmartsKey

TotalCommander

PocketWeather

iSilo

.Net Compact Framework 2.0

SQL Mobile 5.0

Thanks for the help diagnosing this. I'll try a SIM swap Monday time permitting and post an update.

Thanks again!

Excuse me for interfering...

This date format is to sort the backups. First is year, next month and last for day.

If you are using a "normal" datestamp, your files are not listed in sequence.

So, in this case your files are always listed in a way, that latest backup is the last in row.

[Moto X General] DogzOfWar:
I've seen a couple of articles talking about the Samsung Galaxy S5, which is rumored to have a QHD 2k screen ( 2560 x 1440).

Just curious what others thought. Personally, I went from the HTC Rezound (which was also a 720p screen, but smaller at 4.3", so a higher PPI) to the Moto X, but I love the Moto X screen. I honestly can't imagine having a screen that's any sharper. I almost don't want a higer-rez screen, since it would probably just be a waste of battery power.

I'm sure there are some folks who are spec-oriented, but I feel all of the trade-offs made by the Moto X (720p screen, dual core, etc) were exactly right. Great screen, great battery, responsive UI, etc.
[Moto X General] eksasol:
The newer SOCs well be more efficient, it won't have issues delivering fast performance for 1080p while getting good battery if well optimized, especially if reduced to dual core like the MotoX.

The MotoX screen have RGB matrix so it would have more subpixels than a Pentile and Diamond matrix AMOLED screen of the same resolution.

sent via tapatalk
[Moto X General] sman789:
I switched from the HTC One which had the most amazing screen. The Moto X is fine by all means though, it's vibrant and clear and 720P is more than adequate. I think I'm a sucker for AMOLED as well, the blackest of blacks, I'll never go backs. I've owned a GNex and a Note 1 and I feel this AMOLED is calibrated very well. Not quite as cartoony looking as my brother's Note 3.
[Moto X General] imnuts:
The screen is 4.x" diagonally. If you can see a difference between 720p and 1080p, you need to take off your magnifying glasses and move the phone away from your face. While I'm all about bigger and better specs, a 2k res screen on a phone isn't necessary.
[Moto X General] chaoslimits:
Yes
[Moto X General] Darth:
Yes. Samsung can make a millionp screen and I still wouldn't touch them. Lol

Sent from my Moto X cellular telephone...
[Moto X General] Steve-x:
The Moto X was engineered to be the best balance of hardware/screen/size/battery etc available. To that end the 720p screen is perfect. When the same balance can be achieved with a higher resolution screen then I will want it.

You will notice this is very similar to how Apple engineers a phone, no hardware is included that isn't optimized and balanced. They don't force a feature into the phone for the sake of marketing that really hurts the overall product balance.
[Moto X General] someguyatx:
The MotoX screen is fine but not as good as other Android like S4. I am happy with battery life and screen on time though so its a trade off.

[Moto X General] boss.:
I have the note 3 and honestly, the difference between the 1080p screen of the Note 3 isn't that much better than the 720p screen of the Moto X. They are both very sharp and as was stated above, I would rather the increased battery life than the sharper display. But in all fairness, I'm no pixel junkie so the 720p screen doesn't bother me at all.
[Moto X General] alpha-niner64:
The only reason I was even remotely interested in the Moto X was because it carried an HD display-size: was AMOLED and was RGB-like matrix. The rest like usability and one-handed nature was icing on the cake. A FHD display is stupid and impractical for most common cases: the rare exception for me is reading textbooks and other small-font paragraphs: in which case, you're using the wrong tool for the task. Get a tablet or the 5.5"+ displays. The only other phone with a similar display is the Note 2 and that phone completely contradicts what makes the Moto X attractive.

However though, food for thought, anyone looking for a backup phone should consider a Note 2.
[Moto X General] TheSaw:
Yes, because I can't see the difference between this and a 1080p on a screen of this size (and probably neither can you).
