[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diggott:
Hi,

I've just got a Note 3 so not sure of all the ins and outs. I've been reading the forum and worked out it's status is Custom.

I don't think it's rooted, I certainly haven't done it.

Basically I want the Kit Kat update but it tells me I can't update OTA as it's modified and through Kies it says it's up to date which isn't true. I'm on 4.3.

Anyway If I can do the update with Odin I'd be happy but could you help me:

Firstly what version of Odin should I use. I can see a 3.07. It seems old but is that OK ?

Secondly I can't work out what firmware I need to download for it. I have done *#1234# and this is what it tells me the following:

AP: N9005XXUBMJ3

CP: N9005XXUBMJ1

CSC:N9005DBTBMJ3

Any ideas what it is and which I'd need to download for it ? When I got it the phone was set to German by default but I'm not sure if that means it is German or not.

I'd like to use a UK firmware if I can but would that screw the phone up in some way. I've read about KNOX.... not really sure what that's about but it doesn't sound too good if I break it.

Basically any help on what to download and I guess how to use Odin to put it on there would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you

Daniel
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antique_sonic:
any ODIN will do. I used 3.0.9, and flashed well.

You can download any firmware. don't worry. If you wish to use German firmware, there's NB7 - DBT, but this firmware need a pit file to be flashed together with it.

If you want UK, there's also UK version :)

The latest one, which most of the dev use as a base for custom ROM is NC2 czech. I personally have flashed this stock firmware into some of my friend's Note 3, and run into no trouble with ODIN 3.0.9. :D

You should try to go into download mode, and see what is written down there. As you said your system status is modified/custom, I believe if you go into download mode, you will find KNOX = 0x1.

I found this state as well on my friend's new N9005 stock 4.3 unrooted. My friend bought an export set for Europe countries (and it happened to be German firmware as well, same as yours)

cheers.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diggott:
Thanks for the reply. It's good to know it shouldn't hurt whichever I decide to go with.

In terms of where I should get the ROM from. Is http://samsung-updates.com/ the best place to get it ?

Here http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-N9005 I see there are some NC2 ones but no Czech one. Would the top one the Philipines one work ?

Also I can't get into Download Mode. It just comes up with android system recovery (3e). Is that a problem ?

Sorry I really haven't a clue with all this.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antique_sonic:
go to here : www.samfirmware.com

login there / sign up if you have no account. :)

just type ur device on the textbox firmware. you will find the firmware that you want :)

philipines one should also work. try to find those without the provider carrier (less bloatware) :p

to go into download mode : power down your device. after that you can power up by using ==> vol down + home + power, once you go in then press vol up to continue. :)

to go into recovery mode (the one u mentioned above) : power down your device. after that power up using ==> vol up + home + power.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diggott:
Right just realised what I was doing wrong and got into the Download Mode. It says KNOX Warranty Void 0x1

Does that matter ? I don't need to use the private file storage thing really to be honest.

Can I still flash a ROM OK ?

And again is that one on samsung-updates.com OK ?

Thank you!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antique_sonic:
to be honest, KNOX flag trip will only affect if you have use the KNOX container earlier before it trip.

But if you never use, it should be fine. It will only a matter of warranty which is the main issue. But since you said you have never done anything to your phone, I believe you have bought it from 3rd party (non samsung store) which claim to be an export set (which come without samsung warranty). This thing happen to 1 of my friend actually which I mentioned on my above posting.

But don't worry, means now you don't need to worry about KNOX trip anymore (unless you want to bring up the issue to whom you bought the phone from, and actually it will be useless as well, as no prove the knox is tripped by the seller).

You can just download any firmware. Go to the site I mentioned earlier (to get the newest) : www.samfirmware.com

get it from there.

OR

you can visit this thread, and get it from the mirror link there : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2643109

the NC2 is listed at the 1st post on the top part (easy for you to find). My opinion better go to this thread. This thread using mega storage, faster download compare to the at at samfirmware :p

cheers!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diggott:
Brilliant! Thank you for all your help I have now flashed it with Odin to 4.4.2. I went for the UK one in the end which might not be the very latest version but I'm happy :)

Thanks again that's made my day. You're right I don't care about KNOX and couldn't prove anything anyway so I shall carry on and enjoy my nice new KitKat Note 3 :D

Run on Nexus swampy 2 game. Connect charging.

Nexus discharge. USB cable and charge tested on sgs4 in " heavy " mode.

Exit from game. To ensure kill game process through sh.

Tablet continues to discharge when connected to the charger .

Turn off your device , turn on. Still goes discharge.

When charges complete with Nexus turn off then the situation is corrected .

Tablet perfectly now holds a charge and charging normally.

I can't find any explanation. May be the game turn on something in GPU and even restart does not help.

But why after full charging problem gone?

Tried to change the kernel to franco - did not help.

Re: WM2K5 ROM KITCHEN

As a workaround extract the attachment into DEV\OEM\ and rebuild. I compiled it for the German AKU2.0 ROM.

Tnx Bepe for your great work!

IIWPO integrated into Himalaya ROM

Bepe offers us the great option to integrate this well-known theft protection into our ROMs.

Just extract the attachment into DEV/OEM. Open 97bd8b8c-5fe5-4bb1-8ede-f55865d7baf8.rgu with wordpad. Put in your name as you will enter it in the 'Owner Information' as well as a MSISDN to where short message should be sent in case somebody modifies the 'Owner Information'. Rebuild.

Works as is only on German devices. Modify '\Windows\Autostart' in initflashfiles.txt to appropriate folder name of your language (e.g. '\Windows\Startup' in WWE).

My device now will be recognized as "PocketPC USB Sync" when connected via USB. That ´s the way WM2003 did it. It´s faster and more reliable than the WM2005 method via netwotk connection "Windows Mobile-based Device" and TCP/IP. Great, how did you manage that?

@df2jh

actually it was a mistake in one of my former ROM's

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\USB\FunctionDrivers]

"DefaultClientDriver"="Serial_Class"

the original was:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\USB\FunctionDrivers]

"DefaultClientDriver"="RNDIS"

both entries where inside the driver RGU, so Serial_Class was overridden by RNDIS.

I tried to cleanup this file and deleted accidentally the wrong entry.

Perhaps there is a reason why RNDIS was used, but I did not found any disadvantages…

@sacaman

I'm happy to hear that... so no disadvantages using the Serial_Class
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] sacaman:
no its the same connection and may be as he told before that is more stable then the RNDIS connection

thanks bepe for this tools

Sacaman
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] df2jh:
@bepe

RNDIS performs much better than Serial_Class - about 4 times when copying files. They´re using TCP/IP with 8 kByte MTU.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] bepe:
Ok, that’s really something…

I’ll make an update to the driver package after solving the CHS/CHT problem.

Have you tried it yourself? (Can’t test that on my Himalaya at the moment…)

But first instruction of Stylus aliance of Welcome screen was english.

its not so big problem, just report!

Nice!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] df2jh:
Yes, I tried just after you gave me the hint. Copying a 500 kByte File with "Serial_Class" lasts about 5 Seconds. With "RNDIS" it needs not much more than a second.

Hi Gurus,

I have recently upgraded my Imate Pocket PC from windows mobile 2003 to Windows Mobile 5. The ROM I used is the one by tofclock. The version id is 2.03a.64WWE.

Universal Support for WM5 Rom kitchen ?

I have modified bepe's rom kitchen a little bit to support the Universal.

^That were the good news.

Now the bad news.

It boots normally, The welcome thing runs smoothly without any problems, but then the problems start.

1. The extended Rom autorun doesn't start.

2. Today screen looks normal except the phone and battery

icon place. It's empty.

3. The phone/bt/wireless department doesn't function.

4. Startmenu runs, some apps too, but Programs doesn't open

when you click it.Same for the file explorer.

5. Today screen: some elements are "dancing". That means

that 1 item is switching or hopping between 2 places.

Except from that all items function.

6. Battery isn't functioning(only the amount readings).

If you want to have a look at the files, they are uploaded on the xda_developers ftp (ftp.xda-developers.com/ uploads/bepe_rom_kitchen/*.*) They are called ivan_and then the filename.

Anybody out there who can have a look at that stuff to help me ?

Sister bought a Samsung Note 3 and gave me her S4. There was a yellow colour tint all over, specially noticeable on white. I googled for yellow tint on amoled screens for about two days. It was a fact. Whites weren't white indeed. I started to consider to give the phone back and get myself an IPS. Then removed the screen protector. Now most of the yellow tint is gone. So, beware.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Pfeffernuss:
Buy a *proper* protector instead. All will be fine. So, beware on buying crap.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] yuzgen:
Touching this screen and the back of the phone feels good. I don't believe any protection can give this feeling and can always stay clean. All of them will effect the display of the screen. I reject to use protection material. I think the designers could produce phones with them if they wanted to.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Pfeffernuss:
Completely disagree. It is/I find it completely impossible to see the Mime protector I applied, except where the glass stops, logically.

<click image for gallery>

That's fine. I reject a phone with a scratched display. And yes, even with Gorilla Glass it *will* scratch, easily.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Coycaine:
Sounds like it was one disgustingly dirty screen protector.....Like coated with cigarette tar or something. Screen protectors are meant to be replaced, not a lifetime product......
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Stealyourface:
She probably mucked it up with a combination of sweat or oils from her face, hair, and fingers throughout her time with it.

Regardless, that's what happens with basic screen protectors. That doesn't happen with glass screen protectors. And there's no compromises with them either.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] DigitalHeretic:
The Spigen Glas.tR that I bought last week is almost unnoticeable, and feels exactly like the bare glass of the phone itself. Much more responsive than the Zagg I had previously too

This message brought to you by electromagnetism
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] yuzgen:
The point is; why would I protect a screen I will never touch? That screen is made to be used as is. Many engineers worked on it and decided it's good to mass produce. Glass protectors should be OK, cause the dirt could be cleaned, but I'm obsessed with the edges while holding stuff for long hours. Glass protectors' edges should be worse than plastics to touch. This phone feels like touching a naked woman when naked.

If protecting is meant to protect to keep the phone's value when selling, not worth the hassle. I prefer giving away electronics after using, cause 2nd hand traders will never give me what my stuff is really worth.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Coycaine:
I'd hate to see the naked women you've touched then!!:laugh:;)

Also to stay on topic....So you made a thread to tell us you don't like screen protectors? Noted.

LOL. My aim was to tell "screen protectors can be the cause of the yellow tint on S4's (or any other handheld's screen)" but replies brought us to a naked woman.

As a man who doesn't have common sense, I just read the most worthy post at XDA from a raccoon.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Pfeffernuss:
Well, apparently it is crap, because of the yellowing (and the orange-peel effect is horrific, but to each his own). Zagg is incredibly overrated imho.

A proper protector will not turn yellow. My two year old SGP Ultra Clear was as transparent as when applied new.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Rakcoon:
Couldn't agree more. Have used zagg since iphone 4, 4s, 5, until galaxy s4 last year. Not only is zagg overpriced, it also has poor quality- yellowing, blue-tint from jeans, & orange peel effect.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] gflare:
This went from a simple informative post about some screen protectors slowly tinting over time, to a thread to tell people they don't have common sense if they don't buy the best branded screen protectors.

I do want to say thanks to the OP for trying to inform people who may or may not know to check the screen protector if they get discoloration on screen. It did sound like it was a post about screen protectors messing up the original screen at first, but when I read the thread it was pretty clear he was trying to educate people about the protector itself being discolored.

When looking for a cheap screen protector brand that does not seem to have discoloration and still a good solid glassy feel - I prefer 'Realook' , usually bought on amazon for less than the other brands. No discoloration on any of my previous protectors, though I tend to take exceptional care of my devices.
