[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ewok666:
Sure, my GPS is usually fine. Locks quickly and reception is OK. Obviously I lose signal in tunnels and in the CBD sometimes so this is not about that.

I could be in the middle of nowhere with nothing blocking my sight although it's obviously most annoying while driving. I lost the signal when I should not. It usually looks just like the GPS resets or so, without moving much at all the signal will drop from 20 satellites down to four then none within 2 or 3 seconds. Then it slowly comes back, gets a lock and works fine again. The lock could then last for a minute or two and then it just happens again. This seems to mostly happen in the afternoon to early evening.....don ask why :-|

I've tried just about everything. Initially I thought it was a hardware defect but my wife's Note 3 does exactly the same thing......what are the odds of having two Note 3 (bought different places about 2 weeks apart) the exact same problem? I had a quick look at a third one (not one of ours so I didn't get to spend much time with it) but it seemed to do the same thing as well, i.e. lost the signal while standing still with no buildings (and mountains etc) around me.

GPS fix

I found this on xda

I don't know about the rom since I didn't try it but in the quote of the link is how he fixed the GPS issue. Seems like it is a software problem. If your phones are rooted try the method described in the quote if not try reset with backup via Google. Good luck.

When I bought this phone it had 4.3 jellybean Australian version. Everything was working great and after I updated to 4.4 the GPS has gone to sh!t.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hotwire58:
So while updating my S3 manually from 4.3 to 4.4 (i downloaded the OTA file and began to update it through recovery) the S3 became soft-bricked. This is weird because I had just updated my sister's S3 in the same exact manner, and they were both running the exact same version and software, etc. Anyhow, I tried to flash the old 4.3 stock rom back onto the phone using Odin, but i'm getting an error, and it shows "SW REV CHECK FAIL : FUSED 2 > Binary 1" on the downloading screen of my S3. After some research i've discovered that this is indeed Samsung's KNOX preventing me from flashing anything. My question is, how do I get the phone working again? It freezes on the samsung screen, so i can't actually use it. I've tried wiping cache and data, re-flashing, etc. Nothing works. I'd try to install a Custom ROM but I'm not sure if installing clockworkmod would go through or even be possible. Bottom line is, I want the phone to work again, in some capacity. Preferably stock android on 4.4, but i'll take whatever I can get.

Thanks

[General Questions and Answers] gilberts555:
I do not have a typical USB On The Go problem. Okay, so, I got this just today and was excited. When I went to plug it in to my phone with my mouse on the other end, the mouse was not moving. I thought that it was just a defective product, since it was cheap. But, I tested it on my old phone, the Galaxy S Blaze, and it works fine, no matter what thing I plug into it. What is even stranger is that my Mom has the exact same model of the Galaxy S3, the T999L, and it works for her. Basically, my phone is being an idiot, for some reason. I should note that I am using the M6 snapshot, while she is using the March 25th Nightly, but I don't see why USB OTG support would be removed. If it was, please let me know.

TLDR: USB OTG works on two phones, one having the exact same model as me, but my phone doesn't work with it.

For reference:

My main phone: Galaxy S3 (T999L) with CM 11 using M6 Snapshot

Old phone I tested on, which succeeded: Galaxy S Blaze, using May 2nd Nightly

Mom's phone, which worked: Galaxy S3 (T999L) with CM 11 on the March 25th Nightly

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Filipiak:
HI all,

Today I decide to update my i9305t to the 4.3 rom. I unrooted my phone and reset the custom counter and all was good. I flashed the telstra rom and all was good. Because of the locked dock Icons I thought I would flash a different unbranded rom. During the installation (via odin) it went skew if and froze. It sat there for ages but I ended up having to do a battery pull.

When I went to the download menu on the phone, knox had been tripped and there was 47 instances. Any way I reflashed the telstra firmware. It passed but now the phone gets stuck on the Samsung logo.

OK now I have already.....

Pulled the battery.

Removed all cards sim and sd.

Restored different firmwares.

factory reset, clear cahce etc.

Installed custom recovery and cleared devalk cache.

Googled for similar events.

Nothing I have read has worked.

I cant think of what else to do. When I restore a firmware via odin everything is OK, it passes but on the reboot it just stops at Samsung logo and goes no further.

I gather that because the phone can still get into recovery and download mode there must be something can sort this out.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] spiderman07:
flash the original firmware from samsung.....the 4.3 since you updated it...

after it finishes and reboots it will enter a boot loop....IT'S NORMAL.....pull out the battery and start the phone in recovery mode(stock one) and do a wipe data - factory reset and wipe cache partition...it should work without a problem...did this many times...

after you updated to 4.3 you should have done a full wipe...

Well I was in the same pickle

whicever 4.3 rom i flashed through odin i got stuck in boot logo or even if i recovered device from odin through emergency frimware and intillation

Also tried customs 4.3 roms stuck a boot logo

Here what u should try and what i did

1 flash philz recovery + 4.1.2 rom

if it works back up efs

2 Using Philz recovery wipe data factory reset + wipe cache + dalvik cache

3 in mount and storage section format everything ( THINK THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP )

4 Used odin to flash a 4.3 stock package it worked ( note u may get knox from this u may try a modifed stock package if u dont have knox and dont want to get it )
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Filipiak:
Knox was tripped when the firmware install crashed. So knox tripping is no issue. Thanks for the information. I will have a go tommorrow.

I did manage to restore a cm9 backup but my IMEI is now gone and I cant get to the menu to restore my back up. Seems like Samsung has done a number on my phone. In all the years ive been fingering phones with custom firmware and modding I have never had anything stuff up this bad. Its rather amusing that it has happened flashing a stock rom that belongs to my phone.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] dashing_9508:
It happened to me once, i found that 4.3 won't boot if baseband and imei are unknown. when you were trying to flash with odin and your phone got stuck it probably has damaged or ( erased ) your imei partition. try flashing 4.1.1 ( the package file without bootloader files ) it will definitely work for you. the reason is simple , Samsung's stock 4.3 never boots if the imei is corrupt or unknown (baseband is then usually too ) so, flash 4.1.1 , root your phone and install Persus kernel +any modem / baseband file, this is the only solution as i dont know how but does repair your imei , but you will be stuck at 4.1.1.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Well a few days ago the Nexus 5 hit the 6 month old mark. You know what that means… It’s old sauce now and completely outdated! You might as well get rid of it and buy something newer. It’s clearly too slow and can’t keep up with the new phones that have just launched/are coming out.

Of course, we know that’s not true at all!! This phone is still a damn beast and remains pretty close to being top of the line!

So, being 6 months old I’m sure many people have had a lot of time to personalize their phones. So why not show off what you’ve done with your phone? It’s a good way to keep an “aging” phone interesting, and it will help others here maybe get some new ideas of what they would like to put on their phones! It also gives me reason to post more pics!! :D

If you rock your phone naked, that’s cool too! If you want to show us a picture of your naked phone go for it. It would be nice to see how your phone has held up over the months with no protection at all!

We’re here to show the looks and give ideas. So give as much information as possible. Include the brand name if there is one, and where you bought it (a link please)!

man, that looks awesome! I wasn't jealous of the red n5 until now.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:

I actually bought the red phone just because I knew I was going to put skins on the back! :laugh: I wanted the letters to be red instead of black or white. Kind of weird to buy a red phone for just that reason alone, but I've been really happy with how everything turned out.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Geo2160:
[MENTION=3154143]Mmmbacon[/MENTION]: Is that bumper really made out of metal? I would really want to try it if it is. Does it affect signal quality?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
As metal as Samsung phones have metal borders, or PU Leather is to Leather. :laugh:

So does it affect signal quality? Not in the slightest.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Geo2160:
Well, that's a bummer. I really wanted to try a metal bumper, but the only two options that I can find on ebay aren't exactly inspiring. The phone makes direct contact with the metal frame so it probably wears off the coating and affects signal quality. Something like the one you own, but with a metallic outer rim would be ideal.

On a different note, I can barely wait for my ringke fusion to arrive. Expect some drool worthy pictures of it along with some neon glowing skin if I can my get my hands on a friend's DSLR :D.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] danarama:
It's mainly metal backs that cause signal issues. GPS and the like.

[MENTION=3154143]Mmmbacon[/MENTION]: I don't suppose you'd be able to share some more screenshots of that screen protector would you please? I'm interested but I dont feel I get a good idea of it compared to your shots (when searching the net)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Sure, no problem.

After taking these, I noticed that I didn't put the protector on completely centered! I can't unsee it now... It's only off by maybe half a mm or less, but still.

Anyway, these are as clear as I can get them without having an SLR. My 8 year old Canon Powershot was about to explode.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] IvIaniac:
I've ordered a Nillkin H+ protector, too, based on the reviews on this forum, and I gotta say, it looks pretty awesome. How does it feel according your perspective?

I hope I can slap mine on half as accurately as you did!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
It feels just like the normal screen. It's basically a second piece of gorilla glass with an oleophobic coating, slapped on top of the first one. :laugh: Just as smooth, just as responsive, and fingerprints wipe off just as easily. It's so much better than a plastic screen protector, well, because it's not plastic! You don't feel the difference because there really isn't a difference between this and the actual screen.

A tempered glass screen protector is basically a 3rd party version of gorilla glass that you can install yourself, without actually calling it "Gorilla Glass" which is just a marketing name. It's the same thing as Apple calling anything with a high resolution a "Retina Display".

Anyway, we'll see how long before the oleophobic coating wears off, but I've had the screen protector on the phone for over 2 months now and it still feels and cleans exactly the same as the day I put it on.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] GTI6speed:
Man that screen protector looks so good that I just bought one. I'll be coming over from the plastic protector world so I'm pretty stoked. Hopefully it doesn't take as long as Amazon told me it would to ship here either :silly:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] wolfen69:
I've never tried a glass protector so I can't speak about it. You may be right about the fingerprint part, I don't know, but I do know that my amFilm plastic screen protector is smooth as silk. Maybe because of all the skin oils? :p Anyway, whatever floats yer boat.

I will be posting pics of all my stuff once it comes in, but I'll have to use my roommates phone to take the pics, since my Nexus is the only decent phone I have. I can't exactly take pics of my N5 with my N5. ;) Cheers, and happy 6 mo. anniversary Nexus 5.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
You'll notice the difference, probably instantly.

:laugh: You've lubed up your screen protector so much that it's nice and smooth!

The biggest reason I went with a glass screen protector was the drop protection. I wanted to avoid this from happening again (or at least drastically lower the likelihood)... I didn't know that the feel was going to be like a night and day difference compared to the plastic ones I've felt before. A tempered glass screen protector will protect much better from a face down drop, compared to a plastic one which won't protect at all. They are scratch protection only, not impact.
