[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efraingargar1985:
Yes I'm having the same issue. tried turning off the power saving mode. what kind of works sometimes is if I turn off my mobile data off. I also heard that you Wi-Fi password needs to be 9 characters or else, seems like too much of a hassle. I haven't tried changing the password.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordKuroda:
Finally someone who is in the same plight as I am! Haha yes I've tried that too, apparently the signal that the M8 is capable of receiving is weaker than other phones, have a friend who tried on a G2, an M8 and an Oppo Find 7a. The 7a had full bars for WiFi, 1 bar for G2 and the M8 couldn't even connect. :crying:

And about that 9 characters for password myth, yeah have heard about it too! Just counting that out as I don't see any impact it has on the WiFi connectivity though.

did a factory reset, but no luck.. also tried turning off and on the wifi optimization in settings-wifi-advanced & changed the wifi frequency band to auto, 5 ghz & 2.4 ghz, but no luck. like it means dropping 12-15 times in 10 minutes. the power saver is also off. wifi in aosp and gpe roms works fine. any suggestions?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jacqueline robert:
The video camera function on my camera is no longer working and I’m not sure why. This phone is less than 5 weeks old and I have already taken videos with it. This upsets me because I have a 4 month old that I love to record especially when it comes to his firsts. The led flash light comes on when I push the video button, the screen switches and freezes. The message saying error prompts and when I close the camera, the led light will remain on until I reopen the camera. Hopefully you can help me figure this out, many thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
Just a guess.. but you did in another posting say...

Which indicates you have been making changes to your phone related to video. Did you remove that or are you still using it.

Without knowing what your phone condition is in, it is very possible that other changes you have made is causing the problem as well...

Like...

Most don't need to update their modem and if you installed software that modifies how your phone works, you might try turning them off or uninstalling them to see if they are the cause of your problems.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mcheverez:
u could try booting in safe mode and test if theres any app or tweak that is causing it. or u could enter Service / Test / Hidden functions by dialing *#0*# on your phone dialer and u gonna get to the service mode and check camera itself. also theres another one of those USSD codes that brings u to check the phone gadgets hardware /firmware version to see if it same as the camera app... u could also do a full factory restore from recovery screen if nothing else works remember to do a backup first @ titanium backup.. or if you have fair tech skills u could remove the back cover and remove the battery plate and check if tje battery connectors are in place im sure u could find a note 3 tear down video around.. i had the same problem but with the frontal camera and ended up been the camera was defective and replaced it and worked like charm
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rockprogressive:
I know this thread is kinda old, but since it is on the first page on google's query, I'll post a solution here (found on another site).

The solution is to turn off the phone and remove battery for 10-20 seconds. This should resolve the issue.

Some users report that the issue occurs when you charge your phone via PC or laptop USB port. So, to avoid this, prefer original charger.

thank you for replying even if the post is old! it simply worked while i was about to sell my phone ! good thing i saw your reply first!

Did you ever find a fix?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jian1:
Does enable this option help save battery life? as the process is suspended once user quits it. We all know some roguewares would keep themselves active even though not running forground and draining tons of battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ashclepdia:
Unless you are trying to debug an app do not enable this.

It's for developers trying to develop and debug their applications behavior.

MAYBE if u have rogue app installed it may help JUST for that app. But that's a BIG maybe. And then it could cause other apps to have to relaod constantly which will DEMOLISH battery AND performance due to higher CPU usage.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jian1:
I usually choose close all acitive applications upon finish using the phone, so I guess this option would do this automatically for me? I've found if I leave certain apps active my battery drains way faster.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ashclepdia:
The developer setting for kill all apps upon exit is NOT the same as clearing recents. It isn't doing the same thing.

Which apps by the way would you say are "staying active" ?

You can check to see if it is those apps specifically that are causing drain by using apps like Gsam battery monitor (my personal choice due to its user friendliness) or better battery stats app. In Gsam battery monitor you can open the app usage section to see exactly which apps used esactly how much battery/CPU wakelocks/time held awake/background CPU vs. foreground CPU/ etc....

I would say that MAYBE for a very specific type of usage that this option may help in battery life. But it without a doubt will eventual degrade performance, due to more CPU cylces needed to fully open an app from scratch vs having it cached in ram. The setting is for sure meant for developers trying to debug their applications behavior and not meant for users to get better battery or performance. If it WAS meant for those, it would have been enabled by default. It will surely mess up multitasking, which is what android is really all about. TRUE multi tasking with apps running in background. So that is what would really depend on your usage I would think.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jian1:
I think this usage suit my usage very well, I use my phone briefly for calling, maybe very rarely webbrowsing, or sometimes wechat, so I want an app to stop completely once I finished using it since I probably won't open it again in 3,4 days.... I am not those smartphone addicts that's constantly playing their devices.

I only use webbrowser when I was outside and need to lookup an address... no, I don't even use facebook.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] em0ney14:
Would help to do what the game tells you and just buy it.

Without paying for the product then who benefits?

Not the developer.

If you have purchased the game then contact the developer of that particular game. Discussion of this is against these forums, sorry bud.

Maybe you should just buy the game.

Hi, es file explorer, ttorrent and other app's have a hard time accessing my external SD card... It's not the card itself problem, I tried with another and still the same results... Please help!!!!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
on stock Sony 4.4.2?

search for sdcard write fix or something like that
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] clueless_stranger:
None of the solutions on google are working though... And yes, I'm running android 4.4.2 stock on xperia z ultra... Everytime I try to change something on it like download a torrent using ttorrent or add or delete a file on it, it says operation failed and stuff like that... The weird thing is that when I use other file managers like the file commander app, everything works!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sadman Khan:
It will only work with File Commander.

On kit kat, google has imposed sd card write permissions.

So only Sony stock apps can write into the partition. So you can use File Commander to cut, copy, paste, delete etc.

3rd party apps cannot modify the sd card. This has been done to increase security.

So if you are rooted, search for SD fix on play store.

If you aren't rooted, then root and fix it :P
[Moto X Q&A] djlucask:
Hello folks,until yesterday I was doing calls normally,but today is not working at all,the camera sometimes can't record video too,but when it does, record perfectly all the three mics, I tested all. I have gravity box, stock Rom rooted, any ideas ?
[Moto X Q&A] 1ad_m12:
Are you using the smart radio feature of GB? When I tried using it to save battery I noticed a lot of different issues with missing calls, texts, making calls, etc. I ended up just disabling the feature altogether and not bothering with it. As far as your recording issue I couldn't guess.. Definitely a software issue. Try disabling GB, rebooting, and seeing if the problems persist. Then you'll know for sure if it's GB.
[Moto X Q&A] djlucask:
Thank you for your reply,

I tried everything, turn gravity box off, xPosed, a reset, and finally, pushed again the stock firmware via RSD Lite, but still not working.

The volume of the mic is pretty low, only way to get it receive any reasonable sound is blowing the mic entrance.

Recently I replaced the screen, maybe something is not right inside, but still, it looks like a lot of an software problem

Yeah, buy a HTC M8. Turn both devices on. Put your Note 3 on a flat surface with the screen side up. Then, with the M8's screen side facing down, hit the screens together so long until sense 6 falls on to the Note 3.

That's it. :D

You can edit them in framework.res apk with ninja morph. If you can wait till tomorrow I can post exactly how to do it if you want. I'm out right now and don't have my tablet. You can download ninja morph from play store and download the theme you want and I'll explain tommoro. It's very easy.

I tried to flash also but the note 3 has a different folder there in then ours so I think that's why they don't flash rite.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] sequence2469:
That would be great, I'm in no hurry. Thanks for your help I didn't think of trying to modify the apk.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] mikep2323:
You have to open ninja morph and click new project.

Then click on system /framework/then framework res.apk, it will extract the apk.

Next you have to go into a file explorer, I use es file explorer.Click on android themes folder then workspace/framework res/res/drawable Xhdpi.

Then in that folder you will find the air command files.There are 10 files in there you need to replace.

Now go to your downloads and extract the air command zip you want.It will put a folder in your downloads of the extracted zip.In the extracted folder keep clicking until you can't go into anymore folders.Ill attach a screen shot of it with the 10 files .

Now copy those 10 files into workspace/framework res/res/drawable Xhdpi. It will ask you to replace the ones you have in there, just click yes.

Now your good to go. Open ninja morph again , make sure it restarts the app.Click on finish projects and you'll see framework res apk.Click that and it compiles file again.It will ask a few questions.I don't remember what but you need to replace that file you changed so I think that is 1 question. I think the other one is if you want to zip align it.I click no. I would make a copy of your framework apk before you change just in case something goes wrong but it also makes a backup in the Android themes folder. If you need help feel free to pm me.

I attached screen shot of the minion one I use and a screen shot of what files you need to copy.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] mikep2323:
I also might have used astro file manager or root explorer to change the files. I definitely used es file explorer to extract the air command zip I used.

I was looking and if you download the one you want and go into the folder and get to drawable Xxhdpi and change to Xhdpi it might flash fine. I think because the double xx one is for note 3 and one X is for our tablet.Alls it can do is not work again.Ill yet tomorrow and see if it works.It would be a lot easier then doing what I explained.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] sequence2469:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] sequence2469:
yes what i did was download a themed aircommand zip from the link to the other thread then unzipped it and renamed the folder then zipped back up and flashed. I your trying to theme one yourself you could download a zipped theme and look to see if there's a file your missing or need to change mabey.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] arbit12:
Finally working!

Thanks. The missing links were two.

First, renaming to sw800dp-xhdpi instead of xhdpi. Maybe the kitkat upgrade changed the folder used, as the earlier posts all mentioned it worked fine with xhdpi.

Second, I had to resize some of the images from the themes by sibinn ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=49861789#post49861789) The original size is optimised for Note 3 and also works fine on Note 2. In sw800dp folder though, the image sizes are slightly different. After resising, it worked perfectly.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gargyagotra:
Hello All,

I got a t-mobile s4 from USA which was paid in full and never activated on any network in USA. I am now trying to use an Airtel Sim Card in India and it shows that its SIM Unlocked. On contacting the T-Mobile support they are saying that they cant provide an unlock code because the device was never activated on their network.

I am stuck because all websites providing unlock codes work on the same precondition that the device was earlier activated in a T-Mobile network. I am also not able to get into service mode and apply the sim unlocking fix as suggested in few posts.

Please provide help and suggest me the options. I am not afraid to shell some more bucks to make it work but i need assurity that the method would work.

Is there a way that i can try which doesnt require t-mobile network at all???

My android version is 4.4.2 and device has been rooted now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jmjoyas:
To use service mode to unlock, you need to flash MDL modem first. After unlocking, you should be able to flash the latest modem back retaining the lock.

Have you checked if the region lock away app works?

Regionlockaway apps doesnt work...I am outside USA having no access to the T-Mobile network and was wondering whether the steps suggested by you will allow me to unlock the device from service mode despite having no cellular service?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jmjoyas:
As far as I know, the service mode unlock disables the carrier check and doesnt require cellular service.

Also, the S4s are also region locked. They get region unlocked when activated and used on the carrier network. So, your phone requires both the sim and region unlock.
