1st world country problems ;) I cannot seem to find a 'small' shoulder bag for my Note 3?

I cant post a link but a search for Mercurymall®Soft Pu Leather mobile phone pouch with neck strap will give an idea of what i'm looking for.

Something like this, unfortunately the size on this is too small for the beast.

Anybody have any recommendations.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ShadowLea:
Have you considered looking in hiking/camping/tourism shops for a Passport Pouch? Probably won't find any made for the phone itself, but you might find a passport pouch that will fit. That's what I did, anyway.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] SladeZero:
I found one of these at a swap meet and lol'd because the guy selling them was wearing one with his note2 in it.

Don't eat me for lol'ing... American men don't wear purses or over the shoulder wallets.

Moral of the story is go to the swap meet or bargain center you'll probably find it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] apallohadas:
Looks like a great way to have someone snatch a 700 dollar device from around one's neck.

Just my stance!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] XneatsX:
That's a brilliant idea, it's sure has given me loads more options.

I was starting to get curious as to how other ladies carried their larger phones, I mean we don't always carry a handbag and don't have the large pockets guys tend to have on clothing.

Hmm, not sure about that. I wouldn't want to chance my luck but a theft of that kind is so rare here in Scotland.

Following your line of thinking thou I wouldn't even have my mobile out to take a photo, it would be too risky.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] SladeZero:
That is true... I guess the only concern i would truly have is your swinging around a $700 device on a small cord, rope or chain. That screams break me. Pockets are not safe anymore. Skinny jeans break phones and other things egg related.

No need to crawl in to a ball... thats what they make a 45 for. On a serious note... ppl jack phones directly out of others pockets by snatching or cutting the bottom of a pocket... YES... how dangerous is that? I know someone who lost his iphone that way in a club.

My suggestion is and will always be a hoster w/ mag clip. IDK ... get what ever works for you. Secure it how ever you can.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] apallohadas:
I can assure you that phone theft is a trending crime here in the states.

And your example wasn't even in the path of my line of thinking. There's a huge difference in having your phone in your hand and having it swinging by an easily broken string around your neck.

You're fortunate that Scotland has such a low instance of Robbery. I just pulled it up and you guys had an 18% drop from the 2011-12 to the 2012-13 years. WOW!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ShadowLea:
I never carry a handbag. I simply extended my jeans pockets(both) by means of a sewing machine ;)

I bought a passport pouch because those are waterproof, so it has an extra layer of protection in my pocket. Waterfalls and smartphones don't mix well, I've discovered. (My poor HD2 :()

It doesn't do wonders for your figure to carry your phone in a large pocket on your hip, but nobody can nick your phone without considerable effort (you'll notice it... ). And I can now fit my wallet in the other pocket. And it leaves your hands free, and you never have to fear hitting something with it. Efficiency over style :)

Hi all,

i've just bought the O2 exec.

i know that this has been asked a 1000 times already.. ive tried searching all the forums and they have the same hack...

but i've been trying to change the rings directory from "\Windows\ to '\Storage Card\" but some how no mattter what i try, it just dosent show me all the different ringtone that r stored in the "\Storage Card\Rings" folder....

can anyone plz tell me the exact registry entry

any help will do

another problem i have is when i apply the date&time hack for the titlebar, on my today screen, it overlaps the battrey icon... any suggestions...

thanx, frz[/b]
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] 6680abhi:
I dont know which way has been suggested before on these forums, but I myself found a way to set the ringtons to any directory on the phone:

I change the following two registry entries to the directory I desire:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\SavedSound

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Sound

For example, I change the data in these two entries to \Storage Card\Music\ArtistName\Track.mp3 from \Windows\Rings\Tone.wav

Seems to work fine for me.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] frz:
i've been using the o2 mini with the big storage, and i never had a problem changing the sounds folder..

[LG Optimus G Pro] aristik:
Help guys,

It all started with this post in the" No noob questions here" area.

"Hey guys,

I just got my OGP and its f240L, korean version.

I really hate that it has that Call Korea thing before placing a phone call, is there any way to get rid of it?

Also, I am having trouble with the internet, wifi in particular and speeds ... ( I get 10mbps on wifi (used to get >30 with my skyrocket samsung, and like <10 mbps on 3g/4g on my prepaid sim).

Also the wifi signal is not that good where in the past i would get decent coverage in one of the rooms, with the LG it keeps connecting and disconnecting the wifi and switching to 3g/4g which sux, because I can't have any. Is this a modem related issue?

What should I do? (The phone is not yet rooted) Should I root and install a different ROM, more "international friendly"?

This is all new to me and from what it seems it's different than Samung's flashing stuff..."

:(

After that I rooted my phone, OGP F240L version.

And I wanted to get rid of the call Korea thing and the korean marks on the dialer.

I did everything as here : http://optimusforums.com/threads/fix-calling-ui-call-to-local-and-sms-160-character.7711/ ...but as soon as I

wanted to paste those 3 in the folder the phone started FCing.

It always gives me the message : unfortunately, the process com.android.phone.stopped working and after that unfortunately, system UI has stopped.

What is there to do? :(((

I tried reseting the phone and I think made it worse (factory reset i mean) since I can only select the language now and I get the same FCs and it won't let me push "Next"

Please somebody help me as I really hope there's a fix to this.

Quick install question. Currently on knox 5.6. I have ss 3.72 installed and the the knox Ron is installed in the stock rom slot. Do I just factory reset and flash your rom to install it?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] bri315317:

Guys,

Please keep in mind this is the Intial release and to be considered beta. In testing it seems fine but there could be bugs. Please let me know what is happening. I will use your data to decide to stay with NC2 or fall back to MLG for my Kit Kat based rom.

Rom slots are not supported by Hash, therefore not supported by me.

That being said, Wally3685 is telling me that Slots are working fine with 1500mb for system and data partitions, and 400 for cache.

In my personal testing it seemed to work however the rom would not reboot and had to hard reset everytime.

Try at your own risk, i will only support Stock slot ATM.

I flashed a ktoonez kernel and it booted to the lockscreen but the touchscreen is unresponsive and I can't turn off my phone. Is it ok to remove the battery? what should i do?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
Need to provide more info...mdk base? ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
It'll be fine to remove the battery lol.

Decaturbob is right more info would be great. Sounds like either the kernel was the wrong one maybe TW vs Aosp. Or bad download or... just one of them things!

I'd grab either a fresh KToonsez file or dirty flash your rom back and take it from there. Always wipe cache/Dalvic too after flashing a kernel... I do it before too for good measure.

Hi all :)

Sorry if this has already been covered... I searched for quite a bit and couldn't find any solutions to my problems.

Problem #1: When my laptop is connected to my phone hotspot, sometimes it drops the connection and reports as "no internet connection". If I turn the hotspot off and back on again, it reconnects just fine. This happens randomly and started a couple of weeks ago.

Problem #2: Sometimes when I turn my hotspot on, I get the "verifying account" message and the spinning icon, but the hotspot never turns on. I have to reboot the phone to get it to function.

My phone is completely stock, not rooted, and has the stock ROM. These problems both developed recently... I've been using the same setup problem free for 10 months.

Any ideas?

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drawde:
Anyone know if the Fire TV has any Miracast support at launch? I saw according to the press release it's coming later this year, but not much information aside from that.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xaudiblex:
I posted in a long thread before there was a separate forum. I had no luck with Miracast. However, a new alternative has popped up. If you have a 4.4.2 rooted device, you can download Clockworkmod Mirror beta and the receiver app, and you can get similar functionality.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmicalzoma:
You can try AllCast. It has support for Fire TV now. You will need to sideload the app to your FTV.

How about support for DLNA/Play-to/Play-On ?

Hi,

i just received my Fire TV and also tried to connect my Microsoft Surface2 via Miracast with the FTV...which did not work at all. The FTV Box is just not shown as Miracast enabled device. Do I have something to activate first, or is the FTV just not working with Maracas (for now)?

[Paranoid Android Q&A] MaHo_66:
Hello there,

First of all its great to see PA 4+ for our i9305, Thanks to the developers :)

there are several issues i wanted to tell the i9305 device maintainers of this rom.

- Pie does not show up after enable immersive mode

- Peek is not yet present in the rom i guess, couldnt find it

- Lightbulb is not working (cant enable flash light, gives some error)

I noticed that the good old customizable PA rom is changed a lot. for example we cant add more quick settings tiles in the notification panel

and there are no other settings to customize throughout the rom. its pretty standard from what it looks like. i hope this changes with the further coming development.

overall good job ;)
[Paranoid Android Q&A] Pirateghost:
You will need to take these issues up with your maintainer, in your device section.

Peek is not public source yet, so unless you are running a build done by the PA-Legacy team, you dont get peek at all

for the customizations, read the change log thread, as it literally covers every feature of the rom and how to use it. 'If it isn't in the change log thread, it doesn't exist in the build'

If you want cm11. You can download it from www.get.cm from your phone and follow the imstructions..

Its the easiest way for rooting and installing custom roms. It automatically detects device, roots, install recovery and roms.. Most of them are stable too..
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JamesJoey:
I wasn't getting an error.

In Odin I clicked PDM and selected the auto root file.

When I would click Start nothing happened.

Finally, after installing the correct drivers for my device it worked fine.

I'm using Windows 8.1. on a desktop.

The device isn't a phone, it's a tablet.

Just not sure what tools will be helpful.

Also need to know haw to flash a combatable rom.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikhilrj:
Ok.Cyanogen mod supports p3100. Hope yours is the same. Go to www.get.cm from your tablet. And download the apk file or switch into usb debugging. After that go to www.get.cm from your computer. Download the cm installer for pc. Open it. It will take a few minutes to setup upgrading and other process. When it asks to connect your tab or phone. Make sure you have a back up of all.Connect it in usb debugging mode. It will detect your device and download latest recovery, rom and system apps. After downloading everything.it asks for install. It automatically loads downloding mode. You don't even have to press volume, power and all stuffs. Actually just connect your tab and relax.:beer::beer: That's all....:):cool:

---------- Post added at 05:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:08 AM ----------

Or you could manually choose a rom. Check this http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-2/7-inch-development and choose one you want. Before that. You need to flash recovery if you are doing it manually. To flash recovery download rom manager from play store. It gets you the latest recovery. You can also make a backup of your current rom using that tool.:D

Now that we have root and s = off, what files do we need to rename/delete/freeze/otherwise mangle to prevent an OTA update from locking the phone down permanently like Samsung/Verizon/Google did with the Galaxy S3 and S4?

[One (M8) General] graffixnyc:
If anyone has a REAL GPE or a converted GPE you will notice you can't flash any ROMS without getting errors. I investigated into this and this is what I found. The system partition is only a little over 1 gig where the sense system partition is 2.8 gb. So if you try to flash a sense rom on a GPE or a converted HTC m8. It will fail (because the partition is too big for the gpe partition). The only way to correct this is to flash a sense RUU when it's available.

I'm working on a new GPE conversion RUU that will use a bigger system partition. If this works (which I'm not sure it will) then it will be easy for people who to convert to go back..

Just figured I'd let everyone know.. This was NOT tha case with the m7!

[One (M8) General] scotty1223:
Do you need a signed ruu? Or can you just have someone dump from a sense rom the same partitions changed with the conversion?

Are the bootloaders different because of this?
[One (M8) General] graffixnyc:
You don't need a signed one I don't think. But the issue is with the system image. RUU mode complains the image is too big. Jmz Taylor was saying that there is a size limit on the system images that be flashed in fastboot/ruu mode. So they need to be split.. And each zip run after each other in ruu mode. Maybe a signed one does deal with the system image differently (not sure)

If you do a Google search on split system image ruu, you'll see a few examples. Jmz sent me a template to use and I was able to split the system image and I flashed the first one and it flashed correctly, the 2nd part failed.. I'm going to try again though.. One more time to see if I can get it to work.
