[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] droidcruzer:
I've looked all over and can't seem to find instructions on how to downgrade from NAB (4.4.2 KitKat) to MJ4 (4.3 Jellybean). I know, I know, why would I want to do that everyone asks? Well, the benefits of going to NAB do not outweigh loosing signal strength and speed. I used to get 12-15 Mb downloads and 7 Mb uploads on MJ4 and now on NAB I get 5 Mb downloads and 7.5 Mb uploads. I've never seen a better upload than download, but cest la vie. I've tried looking for a radio (or modem to some) that I can flash that would get my NAB back to where I was with MJ4, but I can't find one of those either. I work on the Sprint campus (Sprint's headquarters) so any loss of signal strength and/or speed is a big hit. I have trouble even getting roaming, let alone 3G or LTE. At least with MJ4 I sometimes got LTE, I got 3G most of the time. Yes, there is WiFi here, but WiFi is only available indoors. I've tried Sacs, Carbon, and a couple of other custom NAB ROMs as well as a stock NAB ROM and still no joy. I've tried flashing back using Odin to the stock full unrooted MJ4 restore that is available on rwilco12's site and I just get thrown into an infinite boot loop. I imagine it's because of the bootloader. I don't care if I have to wipe the entire device, I have everything backed up from the internal storage and can pull out the SD card. I just want my good signal back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JimSmith94:
I am following you on your quest, as I would also like to go back to MJ4 to get Knox root. Since you're on the Sprint campus, maybe you can find a techie there that can help us all.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
[MENTION=2727272]droidcruzer[/MENTION], Have you tried just installing the MJ4 modem? It seems that if you flashed the engineering bootloader, you'll have the ability to put any modem you want on there.

So much of this is subjective. I'm getting about twice the signal strength with KitKat than I did on MJ4.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] droidcruzer:
You are so right on the subjective part. I would flash an MJ4 modem, but I can't seem to find one. I'm guessing I'm not typing in the right keywords to search for one. I did try an NA4 modem and it didn't seem to help, so I flashed the base ROM again that replaced the modem with the NAB one. I love Sacs ROM, I have seen a great improvement in battery life. By now I would be at around 20% on MJ4, but as it stands I'm at 61%, after unplugging at 8:00 am today. Not bad at all.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
Bootloaders and Modems...

Here you go (all flashed from PC Odin, all tar files)...

Bootloaders:

NAB Engineering bootloader tar file (goes in the Boot slot in PC Odin)

Stock Bootloader tar file (don't know why you'd want it, but I am certain it has its benefits)

Modems:

NAB Modem

MJ4 Modem

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] droidcruzer:
Awesome, thank you very much. I'm downloading them now and will post screen shots of my signal strength.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] droidcruzer:
Well, maybe Sacs ROM has a bad modem in it. The slowest strength was the modem that came with the ROM. The other two are the MJ4 and NAB with the NAB modem being the fastest. Thank you so much for getting me these, I'll be sure to use the NAB one if I find another ROM that has less than desirable strength and speed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
No problem, man.

I hope you find a rom with which you are satisfied.

Is there a twrp flashable modem yet?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] droidcruzer:
Not that I know of. I don't know that I'd want to flash a modem from TWRP though, but it's personal preference. I can say that the modems that were provided here are kind of quirky on sacs latest Rom. I flashed the NAB one first and lost Wi-Fi. So I flashed the MJ4 one and then the NAB and got Wi-Fi. But I'm still not getting signal strength that I used to. I'm currently getting around -86 dBm 56 asu. I used to get into the 100's all over town without a problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
Not flashable from recovery, but this can be flashed from PC Odin, PDA slot,

NAB to MJ4

Micmars, Thanks for your posting,still unclear for me. Initially when I bought my phone, it came with MJ4 and worked well with voice and Data.recently I updated with official NAB full stock.after upgradation to NAB, my data(internet) is not working.Even I am unable to see 3G symbol.I am only getting voice and text.My signal strength is unstable. I tried to downgrade back to MJ4 with odin,but all times I am getting fail.Please help me in this situation.Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
You Need...

You need to flash the open/engineering bootloader first (that goes in the boot slot of PC Odin, takes like 2 seconds, auto-restart selected on Odin is fine), then flash the the MJ4 modem i previously linked.

Stock bootloader will not let you flash that file.

I just gave you both, and I recommend keeping them at-the-ready if you ever feel the need to swap them out (you can do it multiple times, no problem).

If folks ever wanted a reason to flash the Engineering Bootloader, this is one of those times.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] eric303:
with the engineering bootloader, can you flash the full MJ4 into the phone from NAB? or will that brick it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
No, you cannot. Do not even attempt it.

You can flash the MJ4 modem, but that is all.

Once you're on TouchWiz KitKat, you ain't going back.

Does someone has an explanation for different behavior of all apps which show information about free memory, and command line 'free - m' (-m only format output to MB.) command?

For example all applications report 500 MB free RAM, but free shows only 80 MB + 15 MB in buffer, what is IMO pretty low value for buffers/cache.

I'm using Tasker + Secure Settings to set a Pin Lock when i'm not connected to my home wifi.

The thing that I don't get is, that when I set the Pin manually the lockscreen switches between landscape and portrait mode. When Tasker/SecureSettings set the Pin it is somehow locked to Portrait mode, which is kind of a pain in the a** when you sit in the lecture holding it in portrait and always have to turn your tablet to unlock it.

Anyone knows an answer to this?

[Windows Phone 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Whoa, very cool! Mind sharing the source, or at least the technique used? I tried this months ago and concluded that apps could only see processes running in their own chamber. Even adding ID_CAP_FOREGROUND_TASK_MANAGER only helped a little (let me see the debugger when it was running, not much else). You managed to get a *ton* of info using only completely ordinary capabilities, and I'd really like to know how!

Thanks for sharing the app, though.
[Windows Phone 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Oh, and however you're managing to open handles to system processes, how much access do those handles have? In particular, can you use debug APIs? I really doubt it, but it's totally worth trying... because if it is, we've got arbitrary root.

[Windows Phone 8 General] onecosmic:
Long time i've not been around, and suddenly found this really interesting thread (i'm playing with a lumia 920) i've been able to rebuild the application (generate source from xap) and found some interesting things, there are 2 dll that contain the process tools, one wrapper for them and one dll that is used to "protect" the application:

Win32ProcessWrapper_RT.winmd: wrapper for: WP8ProcessUtils.dll and WP8NativeShellHelper.dll

Win32ProcessWrapper_RT.dll : checks for the publisher id and application id (without that, it disables the dll call's

But the really really interesting part is that there are some functions not added in the wrapper but available on the WP8ProcessUtils.dll, not sure if it's due to elevation required or maybe for another reason (as far as i can see it is able to gain access out of the sandbox so elevation should not be an issue, but who knows, i'm not an expert on that)

here are the functions inside the WP8ProcessUtils.dll

and as you can see, they are not present in the wrapper:

I've attached the VS solution reconstructed from the xap (code is not something to say "ohhh" but it works :D ), maybe someone can take a look and see if the wrapper could be rebuilt to use the missing functions.

Salu2!
[Windows Phone 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Interesting! I'd looked at the exports, but I hadn't caught the same things you had. The WP8_* functions are odd; Win32 doesn't use the "FindFirst/FindNext" paradigm for processes, so far as I can tell. However this app enumerates processes, it's doing something funky. It doesn't even call EnumProcesses, not that this surprises me terribly (since that API won't return any processes outside your AppContainer). The presence of multiple Open* (as in, WP8_OpenThread, WP8_OpenThread2) functions is intriguing. One can safely presume that one of them is the standard Win32 APIs (OpenProcess, OpenProcessToken, and OpenThread are all imported from kernelbase.dll). The question is, what are the other ones? Even "guessing" process IDs doesn't let you use OpenProcess on them...

All the interesting stuff seems to be in the native code (no big shock there, really). Gotta get that source...
[Windows Phone 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Apologies for failing to notice the bit about finding (rather than writing) this app. I've emailed the dev.
[Windows Phone 8 General] onecosmic:
You are right, there is some sort of "voodoo" hidden in that dll, but based on the level of "protection" the application has (for a lack of other term) i'm not pretty sure the dev would be willing to release that portion of the code (he wrote one wrapper to interface a dll that checks developer id in order to allow the app to use the exports, too much work for something that you are willing to release, and also a very good strategy to prevent MS/Nokia to patch it)

Maybe our best shoot is with someone with better ida - hex ray experience (for sure any experience is better than mine :p )

Cheers

Btw, as i said, i'm not an expert on wp applications (just got the wp8 a couple of weeks ago) i've tried to add that capability on the application but says "invalid" is there other way to add it besides WMAppManifest? (additional files, etc.)

Thanks!
[Windows Phone 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
No. You can use it on capability-unlocked phones, but not on standard dev-unlock.

I'm not great with IDA but I can use it. It'll just take longer :/

Pretty sure most of the code isn't that exciting anyhow - I've written apps that get all that info once given a process handle - but getting those handles (to anything but your own process) is the hard part. We Shall See.
[Windows Phone 8 General] const.me:
I only have development unlock and the app worked on my WP8.1 Nokia.

I'm good at IDA but don't know ARM assembly at all :(

Looks like to enum processes, this app just tries sequential process IDs, tries to open it, checks for status code.

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phantom1275:
Hi people,

I have recently bought a Galaxy Tab 3 7.0, brazilian version T211M with 3G and digital TV.

The idea was to use it as an in-car multimedia and GPS device using Waze. I made some tests using my Nexus 7 2013 for this purpose, and it worked flawlessly. So I bought the GTab 3 to be a dedicated tablet for this.

The thing is: the GTab 3 GPS is nowhere near the Nexus 7 GPS performance. My N7 is able to find three or more GPS satellites and lock position in a couple minutes inside my car's garage (which, BTW, is not underground, it's the building's third floor). And without A-GPS (it doesn't have 3G connection, it's the wifi version). In the same situation, the GTab 3 keeps looking, looking... and nothing. Yesterday I went out driving, and it took 15 minutes for the GTab 3 to finally lock GPS position.

Another funny thing that happens is when I stop, for example, in a traffic signal. The GTab 3 GPS gets confused somehow, it's not sure if I'm moving or if I'm stopped. Its speedometer marks 0 km/h, then 2 km/h, sometimes even 10 km/h, then 0 km/h again, the speed keeps going a little bit up, then down. Again, different from my N7, which was very precise.

As a last test, I put both tablets in my place (I live on the 9th floor), over my sofa, right beside a window and a door to the balcony. Using GPS Status (you can get it from Google Play), I tried to find GPS satellites and lock position. The N7 could do it in a couple minutes. The GTab 3 couldn't do it. I had to go outside to the balcony, stood in its end, and then finally the GTab 3 got a GPS lock. But when I go back inside, it loses the GPS signal.

I'm very disappointed about GTab 3 GPS performance, it really ruined my car tablet experience. But before I sell it and lose some money, I have to ask: is there a way to improve it's GPS performance, so that those issues are gone? Or that's the way it is, and I can't do anything about it?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bra2006:

Hi

I've been using my wallaby (PW10B1) with a 4.01.16 ROM and a A.33.02 Radio satisfactorily for over a year now. But for the past month or so, the phone has started giving a clicking sound while on a call. And several times there is also loss of sound. Both parties lose voice for several seconds at a time!

Strangely this does not happen during every call and there is no pattern to this. I though of changing the phone but I REALLY like my wallaby.

Would upgrading the RSU make any improvement ? Any thoughs are appreciated.
