I use my T-Mo unlocked Note 3 in Mexico on both T-Mobile and Telcel with no issues. I get LTE speeds with Telcel. I wasn't aware Movistar had LTE yet, but I only use them if I need a throwaway phone, which given my lack of illegal activity is never.

edit - I'll post a video on Youtube later of my Note 3 on Telcel's LTE using speedtest.net

how about n900t in asia? i buy this model when i was studying in canada and when i bring it to asia i can't get the lte because mainly it use b3 and b8 band, anyone can help me?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ludeawakening:
The SM-N900T Note 3 supports bands 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), and 8(900)

The B series LTE bands supported are B4 (1700/2100) and B17 (700)

It doesn't look like there is much of anything you can do since the SM-N900T doesn't support the LTE bands that are used in Asia.

Do You mean that common rubber-like-rounded pen OR a precision drawing stylus like a Wacom that comes with the Surface?

I think the screen should be electromagnetic-type for this.
[Android General] Jupit3r:
yes, but i think it is still just a capacitive screen.
[Android General] Fran.K:
Can you post a link or the model name?

Thank you.
[Android General] Jupit3r:
you mean, the stylus?
[Android General] Fran.K:
Yes, the stylus. My tablet is a iWork10 "clone". Before buy I asked to the seller about this but have no confirmation.

It would be very nice have the same precision than a Surface Pro. ;)

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddcia0708:
Hi Guys

So I bought an HTC one, international version two months back from eBay India. (It has no warranty)

Recently, the charging port on the device has malfunctioned. HTC won't replace it for obvious reasons

and my seller has no hardware warranty. Is there a way in which I can get it repaired/replaced.

All suggestions are welcome (Even do-it-yourself ones).

Thanks
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Im sure there are many hardware repair stores in India. Locate one nd give it fr repair. However, im sure that it will b quite expensive nd may require a motherboard replacement.

Which city do u live in ??
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddcia0708:
I live in New Delhi. Expensive as in 1000 - 2000 Rs, or even more?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
That actually depends on how bad the problem actually is. If the full motherboard needs to be replaced, then it will cost u much more than 5000 INR. So i wud suggest that u show it to a repair shop nd ask the quotation before actually asking them to do it.

However, im baffled as to why HTC wont do it themselves. If there's no warranty, it won't be done fr free. But i live in Dubai nd here HTC outsources their hardware services to another company, who does all kinds of repairs.

Keep this in mind, HTC has listed quite a few service centres in Delhi on their website

http://www.htc.com/in/support/service-center.html

Check wat they have to say. Ive got many devices repaired by these local hardware technicians in Mumbai. I dont think IT support is any worse in New Delhi
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddcia0708:
Actually, i did go the HTc center, they said there was a problem with the micro USB alone, but as this was an international version, they didnt have the parts for it.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Ur only other option would be to go to a local hardware technician.

Dear Experts,

Good day to you all!!

I am using Canvas A110.

I had earlier rooted my device and was using JMP ROM.

For new experience i wanted to try other ROM's and i found;

1. LegoIce™ Project ROM 4.2 [LF-3 S4]UPDATE 03/02/14

2. LegoIce™ Project [LegoIce™_Fusion_v3] [4.2.2] [Note3 Interface] UPDATED 05/02/14

I wanted to use anyone of this ROM and i followed the steps for flashing the ROM, but after flashing i started receiving messages like "Gallery Not Working","Messages not working" and etc.

After reading in detail, i found that i may need to first add supported boot.img Zip to root directory - PLEASE CONFIRM?

Please help me with steps for adding add supported boot.img Zip to my canvas a110 root directory so that i can use any one of the above 2 ROM's.

I eagerly await for your reply, as i am now away from using my device and want to fix this ASAP.

Thanks in advance, MB

Hello all.

I am wanting to install a rooted 4.3 rom over top of my CM11 nightly. I just can't stand the bugs anymore. Is there anything I have to do besides flash the zip in cwm recovery and flash the firmware using Odin? And confirm this will not mess with my bootloader (ie lock it down)

Thanks a million!

i think it wont mess your bootloader, unless you take 4.3 directly from verizon OTA.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] muqali:
Why not just create and mount an ext4 filesystem with no journal? There is a reason they made the ext4 driver able to mount ext2,3 filesystems. Aside from journaling, which can be disabled, ext4 and it's driver are generally better.

edit - Didn't mean to quote.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
The reason is because the op paths in the file system tree (speaking of EXT4) are optimized for the journal. Without the journal the code path is redundant and the journal-optimized block has empty overhead. EXT2's strength is it's simplicity in structure.

Basically what this translates to is EXT4 formatted disk, mounted as EXT4 and with no journal, is not as fast or efficient as EXT2 formatted disk mounted as EXT4.

I am running this set up right now. This thread will be updated soon with instruction on how to convert it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] LancerV:
Ext4 has quicker read times than Ext2 which too me is going to the biggest perofmance increase.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Morningstar:
This sounds interesting, but I think I'll wait to see others' experiences before giving it a go myself. Will be keeping an eye on this thread though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
The only reason EXT4 has faster read times is because of what I just explained - ext4 uses a method of marking unused blocks on a disk, so it doesn't scan them looking for something. EXT2 does not have this feature. However, when an EXT2 formatted disk is mounted as EXT4, it does utilize this feature of EXT4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] muqali:
Do you have any data, your own or third party to back this up? Do you plan on using an ext2 system with the ext4 driver? Or the old ext2 fs driver? As I understand it, the ext4 driver was given the ability to mount 2/3 filesystems for simplicity sake as well as the newer driver being better but I could be mistaken.

edit - The way you explained it in your last post seems to sound like you'll use ext4 driver on an ext2 fs, I was just asking because I wasn't 100% sure.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
That was the intention, correct. Using EXT2 formatted /system but mount it as EXT4 - for the reasons I outlined. To effectively remove journaling and not only that, but the redundant overhead of journaling in the fs tree which would still remain if I were to, say, run this command...

tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/block/mmcblk0p23

EDIT** and so far, yes the difference has been noticeable in boot up time - which is a clear indicator of a performance increase. It loads the /system much faster during boot. Battery life has been slightly better as well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] LancerV:
Do you have a video or benchmark showing the differnce?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
A benchmark? People actually use those? lol.

My own device before doing this mod booted in about 21 seconds from the off position. After doing this it was 15 seconds. I full booted it 3 times for each EXT4 and EXT2... it was consistently the same.

You don't need a benchmark to understand there is an obvious performance increase there. Battery life has also been a little better today. My usage on a daily basis is consistently the same with no changing variables. 15 hours off the charger and 75% battery with 1 hour and 30 minutes screen on time is what I typically see. Today I was 15 hours off the charger, 81% battery with 1 hour and 30 minutes screen on time.

CPU cycles have been reduced, obviously.

If you wanna give it a go... You won't regret it. Post your results here so we can compare :highfive:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] LancerV:
Nothing wrong with storage benchmarks, hell the best Windows/Linux/Unix storage benchmark is from 2006 and works perfectly. It's pretty much a staple when it comes to setting up Fibre, and 10Gbe SAN's to make sure the throughput you should be getting you are getting and to test various raids in their IO performance along with read/write performance.

So to say lol people still use benchmarks is pretty naive.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
I have not seen one benchmark available on the playstore that is even remotely relevant. What a joke it is to see a tech article running a quadrant test comparing two devices using a benchmark... so, if you were talking about one of those - quadrant, antutu, etc... none of these are going to give me an accurate representation of what kind of performance increase or decrease I am seeing for /system because they don't test those partitions. There are more accurate ways to run a performance test on a disk.... but it's quicker for me to just go ahead and reboot the device since, well, I know what I am doing and happen to be doing it on a portion of the disk where a majority of the work by the CPU is coming from accessing this particular partition of the device.

During boot, there is one task being executed and one task only... booting! Any most everything being loaded is coming from where? /system

Naive? I spent time on Google's team as a software engineer a couple years back... I am far from naive. You are just not looking at this from a practical or logical point of view.

I'll give you an analogy before I go to bed so you can better understand:

If your car runs out of gas, and stops running, and somebody gives you a ride home, then somebody else calls you and says "Hey, I just saw your car on the side of the road, saw your post on G+ about running out of gas. Well, I happened to have a gas can with me and put a gallon of gas in it for you. Go pick it up!"

Now you get a lift back to your car, put the key in, and it starts right up. Do you then turn it off and walk to a gas station, get a gas can, walk back, put more gas in it, and drive away? No, you don't. Because you have already obtained a positive result. There is no need for "testing" at that point. You have clearly established a positive result.

Anyways, benchmarks.... can be useful sometimes. But you are mistaken if you think:

A) They will give me anymore information than I know at this point regarding the test method...

B) I am going to be allocating more time and resources to run a "relevant" test on my /system partition

C) I have not already obtained a clear result

Not trying to sound arrogant... but I've been doing this a while. I'll pass on the benchmarking this time around.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JoshBeach:
Right on. Great work OP. While EXT2 isnt for everyone. Experienced users can gsin value from using it. Nice Work!!!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] LancerV:
My phone takes about 15secs to boot up not sure Im going to really notice a 1-2sec diffrence, a better analogy would be taking a car that does 0-60 in 6secs and a pos looking car and one that does 0-60 in 6.2 secs and be looking like a sports car. The differnce would be so minuscial that if you asked people which one accelerated faster they would naturally pick the one that looks like a sports car because thats how peoples minds are trained to think sportty looking car = quicker.

Its kinda a mental placebo effect, hence why I asking if you had a boot up video seems like that would be proof enough.

Also ran a top command and suprise system is using 1% and its the top command so I dont see where you are coming up with the extreme cpu cycles you say journaling is causing. Not to mention the fact /system is pretty much only called upon boot. Most other times its going to be pulling r/w cycles from /data or /sdcard.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
The placebo effect you are speaking of are typically people that don't know what they are doing, and are simply just excited about something.

An example of this would be the 9 out of every 10 posts I see in a ROM thread over the years talking about how much smoother their device is after flashing "xxxxx ROM"... a stop watch is a pretty reliable method for checking boot times, which is what I used for this particular scenario because I knew it would be relevant. Also the fact that my usage is pretty much exactly the same every day is a pretty solid test attribute. Any change in battery life at 15 hours... even if it is 1%... I notice it.

Also, my own personal ROM that I use is entirely odexed. So, nothing is being drawn from /data/dalvik-cache that is a /system/framework or /system/app function. It is noticeably more efficient because the 280+ .odex files are being read from the same location... which is now ext2, and not ext4.

Is this kind of starting to make sense now or am I losing you more?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Compusmurf:
I am not aware of all the file systems on linux. What happens to the partition if you restore a nandroid backup of the system partition that was converted to ext2 but the backup was ext4? And/or if backup was ext2? Just curious.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
It will write the data to the disk as it should. You can do this without having any issues.

I've never tried restoring an EXT2 backup to an EXT4 formatted disk... So I have no answer for you there. It all kind of depends on exactly how TWRP's backups are created... I think they use .tars ... I'm not sure
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Hypercore:
Would this by any chance work on an AOSP/CM/AOKP ROM? I've tried using it with CM and LiquidSmooth but it stops every time after "erasing system" with "script aborted (no error message)".

Nevermind, I found out the issue. I went back into the updater-script and removed this line: "format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");". It flashed perfectly after that (Liquid Smooth AOSP ROM).

Edit: Had an issue with the ROM not booting at first, it hung on the splash screen. What I did was reboot into TWRP, wiped cache and dalvik cache, went into terminal (in advanced) and typed this command: "setenforce 0". After that, type "getenforce" and make sure SELinux is set to Permissive. I'm not sure if the SELinux command helped at all but I did it just in case.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
"format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");"

Change that 4 to a 2...

"format("[COLOR="Red"]ext2[/COLOR]", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Hypercore:
Hahaa, I was just about to come and post that exact thing. I looked over the code and found out you need to format:

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system

But you beat me to it :)

I think you need to change this to ext2 as well:

But I haven't flashed yet, I'm going to now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
Yes, as mentioned in the OP, any lines of code in the updater script that have "EXT4" and "system" in them, whether it is a mounting or a formatting script, needs to be changed to "EXT2"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] theboss23:
Do we have to fresh install for this or can we just flash it over our current setup?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Hypercore:
You would need to do a fresh install. The system partition needs to be completely formatted to ext2 and the ROM has to be as well. You could probably just backup your data partition, wipe, format system to ext2, flash the modified zip then restore data right after.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
This.

So I was cleaning up the internal SD card after flashing over to CleanROM and I noticed that the DCIM folder had a couple hundred mb of data in it. Sadly when I tried to stop the delete the folder was already gone. My question is what was in there.. I had not even opened the camera yet since I had owned the phone. I tired to dissect an odin image but coudln't find anything to relieve my curiosity. Does anyone know if there are pre-loaded images or something in there?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Krishu:
Even I had the problem some times ago, but I still couldn't get an proper answer for that :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DuoDSG:
I'm willing to bet that other apps used the camera, even if you did not use the camera explicitly with the purpose of taking pictures.

Anything that you can use to scan QR/bar codes, geotag a location, take a note, etc can be set so it saves the image into the DCIM folder (it may even be set up that way by default).

They wouldn't be pre-loaded pictures, because those are stored in a totally separate directory on your phone.

I installed the Neutrino ROM (CM7) a few hours ago because I was extremely tired of dealing with the 2hr battery life I was getting from CM10.1 and kristianp's latest kernels. I'm not sure if the 38p radio was contributing to any problems or not.

I was perusing the settings; I tapped Add Account in Settings > Accounts, and my phone rebooted, after which it wouldn't go past the Moto logo and would display this message "Modem did not power up (0) Starting RSD protocol support"

I googled this, and it's a hardware problem with no way to fix it except warranty, which has expired. I can boot my phone using "Boot Android (No BP)", but this disables radio, so I cannot use my phone for communication purposes anymore. Except IM apps when I'm at home on WiFi.
