[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swiss420:
I would like to upgrade my aging N7000 to an N9005 but not without doing the proper reading first. Unfortunately all the reading also confused me more then it resolved my questions. My main Question is what would be a good Firmware to look for on a Note 3 before buying it. Regarding not trying to trip Knox. (If it turns out to be too much of a pain I will survive tripping that flag and living with a preexisting condition. ;))

I gave up searching for a black 64GB Note 3. They seem to exist but are harder to come by then a Ghost. Am I correct to assume that de la Vega Root only works on pre 4.2.2.Firmwares? For CF Root are there any prefered Firmwares?

I know it is usually hard to check the Firmware when they are still brand new and packaged but there are lots of customer returns at local Media Markt’s. Besides the ones that have been upgraded to 4.3 there are some with 4.2.2 N9005XXUENA2 on it. Do you think I should keep searching for a older one or rather go online and find a used one which has never been update? Or does it really not matter? Still enjoying Paranoid Android on my Note 1. Or is there a good reasons to wait a little longer?

Media Markt Switzerland is selling the Samsung Galaxy Note N9005 32GB for CHF 599.- = $680 which is not a bad price. MSRP in Switzerland is CHF 768.- = $872 (Customer Returns would go for about CHF 50.- = $56 cheaper)

Any thoughts on this? Or any additional reading material that I should not miss? Any hints and tips are greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
For Note 3 there seem to be no firmware before 4.3.

For Knox and N9005 you really want any firmware BEFORE 4.3 MJ3. I have seen reports that you can still work with some post-mj3 if you are in Canada/Mexic and you have the N900W8.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rosli59564:
If you prefer to keep knox cool for warranty then find the one with old firmware lower than MJ4 as it's still possible to root and keeps warranty. But maybe not easy to find it.

The first note 3 firmware is MJ1 which is 4.3(there is no 4.2.2). 4.4.2 starts with NA6. So far not possible to root 4.4.2 without tripping knox.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swiss420:
Thanks guys you made one thing clear that I can not read correctly. lol For some odd reason 4.4.2 looked to me like 4.2.2. My misstake but atleast that clears up allot. Sorry for making that misstake.

So the 4.3 Customer Returns would be acctualy the ones I should be looking at to see what Firmware they have on them. I will go check to see whats available. Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
Many people (myself included) have bought their N9005 with MI7, and I have recently seen a report that there was a very special early version (no knox, never sold to customers) around MI2.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swiss420:
Now everything makes much more sense. :) Anyhow I did check the others with 4.3. See attachments.

The white one would be an original release as it seems. I prefer the black one, but reserved both for now. Any thoughts on these two?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ione2380:

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
Well, both should be OK, BUT you also need to ask the seller for a picture in download mode - you really want knox warranty flag 0x0 and reactivation off, here is an example of how that looks:

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swiss420:
Thanks for the Tip I already looked at how to check the flag and will do that before commiting but Media Markt is a large Retail Store and on Customer Returns they have the same 2 Year Warranty as on the new ones. I am able to start and check them before buying. Chances are the new ones have the same Firmwares but I will try to get a better price with a Customer Return.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swiss420:
Rooted

Just a quick update to end this Thread on a good Note.

Ended up buying the Customer Return for 539.- ($614) with a MJ3 Firmware and tried the Root de la Vega method to Root it without triggering the Knox Flag.

Rooted to the bone but Knox is triggered. Oh well not sure what I did wrong. I will live with it.

Since you tripped the KNOX flag you might as well just update to 4.4.2 and re-root it. It's just that much better :good:

Trying it again....

Where you are right you are right but I got another Note 3 which I am going to try again using the Root de la Vega Method.

MJ1 Firmware

Just trying to figure out what I could have done wrong on my first Note 3. Anyone have any Ideas? Maybe I used the wrong firmware. Will try it this time with a MJ1 Firmware. On the first one I will go ahead and upgrade to KitKat. Just wondering what the best way is?

Anyone have any thoughts on these two issues?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
So as we know, LTE is data connection and doesn't support voice service by now , so there are 3 ways of workaround.

1. VoLTE, isn't available for now anyway.

2. CSFB, means connect to 4G in use, but switch back to 2G/3G when calling, where Internet will get killed if on switch back on 2G.

3. SVLTE, means connect to both LTE and 2G/3G , data goes on LTE and voice goes on 2G/3G, of course battery life is reduced.

So I was wounding how does our s4(i9505) work on such matter?

Looking on the icons during the call, the data connection usually disappears during the call. Therefore I'd presume that all data connections are terminated.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Accessories] Scalpos:
Thank you very much for your feedback :good:. Quite similar need for me: day long mountain bike and hike sessions.

I'm curious about any setup allowing charging the phone with a dynamo, but still being waterproof, or anything allowing to extend the battery life for a complete day of use as GPS track recorder and map. I have in mind a setup based on something similar to the Shimano Dynamo Generator Hubs.

Regarding the power button, I hope Tap2Wake & Wake 2 Touch, or any other similar feature, will be soon available for the Z1 Compact.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Accessories] Milkywaye:
Yeah.. the phone batteries are not quite up to the extended rides or ultras.

tbh that is why I use a Garmin Edge for my long rides (i don't need to go longer than that battery allows) and not use my phone for tracking.

in the past I have used different things for keeping the juice of my phone going (additional batteries, external batter packs etc).. but I think this is one of the weaknesses of the phone for that application

[1] the magnets on the magnetic charging socket tend to be weak so on a bike you will probably need to keep on reconnecting or use some sort of tape to tape the socket in place

[2] the normal usb charging socket is in an awkward position.. so the cable would jut out to the side.. but worse.. you lose the waterproofness and more worryingly, the flap is in a dangerously vulnerable position to breakage

[3] no removable battery

If i needed to charge on the go (on the bike) then I would defintely look at utilising the magnetic socket and tape the plug n place.

that would then leave the issue of keeping the phone out of the elements (especially on extended downpours) and for that you would need a different mount to the topeak one (not broad enough to have the charger in the bag as well)

there is also the other issue of amps.. you need to make sure that the phone is being given enough amps to actually charge. not sure a dynamo would do that,.. but those battery packs would if you choose the right one

---

When you do get something sorted.. then post piccies! very interested to see what you come up with
[Xperia Z1 Compact Accessories] lokitorr:
Nice post!

I used the same Topeak case with my late SGS3, which was a very tight fit...

I have used it in different conditions over half a year and found one big nuissance with it. That clear plastic gets foggy from the inside and you have to clean that up every now and then (sealed rolled and everything). And I'm not a neat freak... also I don't have sticks for fingers, so cleaning all of it is just not pleasant...

As for the charging en route... you could still hook the dynamo output by soldering the wires (actually with some connector) to a solar battery - as complimentary powersource to the solar cell. Then charge from that, which gives a more stable output. Worst case scenario is that going downhill may fry a solar battery instead of the phone...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samehhesham4:
I had one of those "BD" battery which was swollen and the phone was restarting once or twice a day. I paid 40$ for a new battery and the S/N starts with AA. Anyways, the battery has been acting weird recently (it's just one month old) it sometimes charges itself and sometimes the phone turns off when the battery's at 40% and when i turn it back on it shows 0% and if i take the battery out for a minute and put it back in it goes back to 40%. This started to happen a lot after flashing the russian kitkat firmware. Does this indicate another faulty battery?

EDIT: The battery is 100% flat and not swollen at all

Hello everyone, i'm newbie here. I just bought a xda exec and i want to sign up for T-Mobile Total Internet in USA for GPRS service. I wonder if anybody has done it and how was it? How fast is it because as I contacted their customer service, they said they don't know anything about xda exec settings.

Thanks advanced for any reply.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cdgoin:
Simple..

1) Make sure its unlocked

2) Get SIM card from T-mobile and insert

3) For intetnet go to Settings and then Connections

4) Under "My ISP" click "Add a new modem connection"

5) Name connection T-mobile

6) In the type of connection detail use "Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)"

7) Access point will be - wap.voicestream.com

8) Click next, then click finish. Do not need the set any advanced settings or Passwords or login.

Just posted this on my MDA PRO with the newest DOPOD ROM

Connections are good, but othside the metro areas I havent had much luck WiFi works great.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] lie_ui:
7) Access point will be - wap.voicestream.com

----> T-Mobile offers 2 different data plans: if you go with the cheap one, named T-Mobile Web, you get access to the wap sites only, and you will be using the wap.voicestream.com access point.

If you go with the second plan (a lot more expensive) named Total Internet, you will hit the internet, and you will use the access point internet2.voicestream.com

Most people can hit most of the www by simply subscribing to the T-Mobile Web (the wap plan) and then configure the following proxy in the connection settings:

HTTP proxy: getmorespeed.voicestream.com port 8080.

Thanks,

hey

I use this already just use wap.voicestream.com. It doesn't matter the diffrences are one you have a public address and the other you have a private address. Everything works through wap.voicestream.com. Don't put the proxy settings in just the gprs

I just need help on something.

My GT-I9505 is running MIUI (4.2.28) ROM. TW-based ROM. based on I9505ZHUBMF4.

It has the Stock Samsung Keyboard but it is "Samsung Chinese IME". The letters are in qwerty format but the symbols are not in qwerty format .

Also, it has settings on top of the keyboard (on top of the numbers) and I don't like it. (Look at the attachments to see how does it look like). By the way, there is no option to disable or hide those things that is why I wanted to change it.

I want the STOCK SAMSUNG KEYBOARD. Like the one in the Official i9505 UPDATE (I9505XXUFNB8 4.4.2 KITKAT). I DONT LIKE KEYBOARD WITH SUBSYMBOLS.

Can someone give me the zip file to flash it and also a tutorial.

Also if possible, I heard and at the same time, seen a stock Samsung keyboard IN WHITE. It would be great if i can have that WHITE Samsung stock keyboard also.

Note: I am on MIUI (4.2.28) ROM which is TW-based so Samsung Stock Apps will work

[General SlimRoms Discussion] arvindgr:
SlimRecents is such a nice concept for Replacement of native android recents.

However, It doesn't seem to support CLEAR ALL function which closes all running apps and more than that, It never includes the app for which recents is Opened.

I.e. When you want to close the app you're running to top, you need to switch to other app or Homescreen to close it.

And another thing I wish for is, Black theme for SlimRecents
[General SlimRoms Discussion] :
if you switch to slim all black, you get a dark theme for recents.

but somehow i wish to have a clear all/all except focused app functionality in recents to. no must have but a nice to have ;)

I've been searching high and low for this, would love to have the exact music controls we had prior to the 4.4.2 update. I have found an alternative, but it involves using the Samsung Music Player (NOT the stock player we are used to). This music player can be accessed through the Samsung Hub, and you can add a specific shortcut to the music player on your home screen by pressing menu in the Samsung Hub app, and selecting shortcuts. I've tried it, but I don't like it - maybe because it doesn't work as fluid/well? It's worth a try, but I've resorted back to the stock music player.

[T-Mobile LG G2] TheFuzz:
I took the update because I boot looped my phone trying to upgrade to a rooted stock version of Kit Kat.

After going to stock I lost root and of course custom recovery. As many have noticed, there is no viable tether app that works with Kit Kat on this device. In doing a search it appears that this is the case with many devices that have gotten Kit Kat.

So I did a search and through several different threads I believe I have found the workaround.

I am new to doing "How-To's" so please forgive me if this is not as professional as others. I am not a developer but have some knowledge of working with various facets of Android. So, here goes:

1. Go to settings--> Tethering and networks ---> Mobile networks --> Access point names

2. Under Access point names, you should have T-Mobile LTE

3. Click menu ---> New APN

4. Name --> Whatever you want

5. APN ---> should say "Not Set" change to "Fast.T-Mobile.com"

6. APN Type--> type "default,supl,mms,dun"

7. APN Protocol --> Be sure it says "IPv4"

8. Menu--> Click save

9. Change APN to the newly created Access Point

10. Download : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.foxfi

11. Download the PC app (if needed)

12. (Optional) Download: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.foxfi.key

Follow instructions on setting up FoxFi which I will not cover here.

I am using this now to type this thread. It is a little buggy but I think that is FoxFi not necessarily this method of tether. I have to at times disable/re-enable the PC app if I lose connection.

I hope this helps folks out there.
[T-Mobile LG G2] stormannorman:
What is the problem with the mobile hotspot that comes with stock kitkat? D801 tmo.
[T-Mobile LG G2] TheFuzz:
Nothing wrong, works perfectly fine. This is an alternative means through a different app providing a means to tether without utilizing a set amount of data provided by carrier.
[T-Mobile LG G2] adampdx:
Are speeds with FoxFi comparable to stock tethering?
[T-Mobile LG G2] TheFuzz:
Yes, speeds are comparable. Only issue, and I believe this is with PDANet/FoxFi is you at times have to reset the connection on the computer. I am running Windows 7 BTW
[T-Mobile LG G2] Ivanprskalo:
Wait, is it not easier way to do this:

(if you have root)

1. download SQlite editor app from G.Play (pay for it few bucks)

2. search for com.android.providers.settings and open it

3. open "settings.db" then "global" and under "tether_dun_required" change 1 to 0,

save and turn on tethering without any limits.... Just after reboot you need to set 1 to 0 again to make it work...

I saw it somewhere around and that worked for me!

(Didn't have to change or create new APN.

(This is possible solution for NON-T-mobile users of D801 model, because I'm one..)
[T-Mobile LG G2] TheFuzz:
That is if you have root. As stated in the OP this is a workaround for those that have lost root via 4.4.2.
[T-Mobile LG G2] adampdx:
Will this affect the system tether app as well?
