[Nexus 7 (2013) General] trincisor:
This tablet has krait 300 cores and not the krait 200 cores like nexus 4 and optimus g. They are just lower binned and hence and under clocked s600. Have a look at anandtechs coverage of this tablet. Qualcomm might have just sold them for cheap to Google and named them s4 pro to warrant the higher price for s600, which was the then top of the line.

[General Questions and Answers] Gino76ph:
Hi there.

I work for the NHS as a community nurse but found that this is no longer what i wanted. Ever since my real passion is tech & gadgets in particular PCs, tablets & smartphones. I like selling them and giving advice to people before they buy them. I'm currently a seller on Amazon and Ebay but i only have a few items in there and would be very impractical as a source of income for my monthly things. Besides me and my wife have many plans and living in London ain't cheap.

If i have a regular job in-stores or act as an online or telephone adviser that might be more better and more practical. I know its not totally what i have finished in college but at least its something of a passion and what i really want doing. Don't get me wrong. Visiting patients and talking to them and doing what you are supposed to do is nice. I work from 0830 till 1630pm. But i'm in my late 30's and i need to be somehwere where i am "relaxed" and comfy on what i do. And i fell "at home" with tech & gadgets.

I also have this idea of creating apps for Android (or iOS) but with a very stiff competition it has to be niche and caters to very specific demographics, etc.

Any advice on how or where to start please?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Charola:
Hi

This is to document something I had to learn on my own and see if someone has a better solution.

I have a Movistar GT-I9300 Samsung S3 which I upgraded to carrier's bloated firmware 4.3 recently (could try the Samsung version but it has a different modem version).

After upgrading and installing some stuff I rooted and renamed bootsamsung.qmg (which is in fact Carrier's qmg).

After that, the screen did not turn off on its own or by pressing the Power Button. No way it could sleep / turn off / lock / etc.

I have not discovered this the easy way, but thats the story. Wakelock didn't help, sinice its not an App draining battery or preventing idle.

Doing so in 4.1.2 did not caused this issue.

Does anyone have a way of preventing the boot splash screen? Fortunately, renaming the PowerOn and PowerOff sound files mutes the noisy Boot and Shutdown.

PS: After I picked this up I noticed a small mention on a forum, but the main problem is that searching for this issue is not something that comes with relevant results.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pronkster:
Hi Guys,

I have received my new HTC One M8 a few days ago and found out pretty quickly my 12 GB of Rdio music offline files couldn't be stored on the SD card :S. What was Google thinking in disabling SD card access for 3rd parties ???

Anyhow.. long story short, I have spend most of the day trying to alter the platform.xml file in the system folder as per : winaero.com/blog/unlock-external-sd-card-writing-for-all-apps-in-android-4-4-kitkat

I have root access (confirmed with Root Checker app) and when I manually change the file with Root Browser it allows me to save successfully. I can even see the changes made in the file when I re-open the file in another file editor. The date of the file was also changed but when I restart the phone the platform.xml file is reset to its original state. Even the time stamp has been reset to the original time stamp.

Does anyone know how to fix this? It is driving me insane! Is there anyway I can force this file to be saved?

Thanks a lot in advance.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pauls57:
For me, once I had root and s_off, I also had to install an insecure kernel, then I was able to successfully edit the platform.xml file which I did with the sdfix app. All good now. At this point, I have a custom rom installed, and that has it all built-in.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda890:

I had opera on my installed on my device, worked perfect.

I have now installed opera on my sd card after a hard reset, opera works fine. HOWEVER if i get a text message with a link and click the link I get a failure message.

If i copy and paste the link it works fine.

Anyone seen this behaviour ? Do I need to have opera on my sd card only ?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] latitude23:
Hi all,

In my galaxy note 10.1 GT-N8000 - Android 4.3 - CyanogenMod 10.2

I have a French sim card and I live in the Philippines.

Apps like "Amazon Store" are sending SMS from my tablet and it costs a lot.

How to simply put my sim card OFF (like "airplane mode" do) without:

- remove the sim card

- install a new app who control access to the sim card

- put the device in "airplane mode"

In the settings I can only uncheck "mobile data" but my purpose is: No call and No SMS.

Thanks by advance for your answers.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nesx87:
Hey folks. i did a whole lot of research on buying this.

Considering that it is quite expensive, and the facts below:

1) i dont have a laptop beyond work laptop

2) i do have a desktop pc

I was thinking whether it is worthwhile getting this and it all comes down to how good its handwriting function is as it is the only thing making it worthwhile for me.

I read reviews etc. I tried one at a shop (though they dont keep the s pen on the device to avoid help, therefore my play time was rather limited, and it was on 10.1 inch version).

I wanted to ask those that use this for notes e.g. lecture notes, or business meetings; how fast can you actually write on this thing?

Our natural handwriting is for sure faster, however i wanted to have a realistic picture on the device's ability to be used for such purposes. I assume that its a matter of getting used to it? Is there a way to adjust/reduce latency?

Other than that, from current long stand owners, any advice regarding buying or not?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
Personally I had purchased the tablet not only to serve as my primary media consumption device but also as a note taking device for my business meetings. Having tried a gamut of note taking applications and settling on one (LectureNotes) I'd say that you need not worry about the lack of performance with regard to natural handwriting note taking. You will surely find an application that will suit your needs (it is quite possible that the S-Note app that is built in will work perfectly for you as well).

I recall seeing that you asked about the potential lag during pen input when note taking. For note taking applications where you're writing directly onto a virtual piece of paper the input is practically instantaneous. If there's any lag it is not so much that it would be distracting.

The tablet also allows text input into text fields using handwriting as an alternative to keyboard use. This function works fairly well but here because it is doing OCR of your handwriting input will lag a little and you'll undoubtedly have errors (the frequency of which is a function of your handwriting legibility).
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nesx87:
:) thanks for the quick reply. I think you have helped me!

Basically i do not care so much about the OCR speed, as much as i care about the effectiveness of this device as a replacement of pen and paper. This is what i will be trying to do. Getting the 12.2 will essentially be almost equivalent as an A4 paper. If i am happy about the handwriting capture speed and effectiveness it will mean that i will be digitizing my handwritten notes, which will enable better organisation etc. Tonite may be the night i press BUY ..

Thanks for your help. If you have more feedback, i will gladly take it!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
Yes you'll definitely like it for this. Most note taking apps allow export to PDF as well so you can save your notes for use elsewhere. This comes in very handy!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Serinety:
I have used my note to replace paper notes. I'm a college student and take lots of notes, this device allows me to take my notes as fast as I do on paper. With the added benefit of changing colors, highlighting, etc.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
In terms of handwriting on a notetaking app, workst excellent. It does take some getting used to because you're not encourntering the same resistance as you do on a physical piece of paper. There's virtually no lag. (A few milliseconds, but that's the limitations of technology. You probably won't notice it if you're not used to noticing it.)

The OCR isn't infallable. I've had a friend who's a doctor try to use the direct handwriting input in my calendar, the result was a language I'm fairly sure nobody on this planet has ever heard of. (I'm still not sure what it is I'm supposed to do tomorrow... :laugh: )

I should mention I'm used to working with Wacom pens as I'm a long-time Intuos user (In Photoshop) and I own a Note 3.

I've also bought a Wacom Bamboo Feel for Note, because to me the Spen feels too small for lengthy use. (It's fine on my Note 3, but not on 12.2"). The plastic one is nice and light, but the carbon one feels really awesome. Too bad it's another 50 quid over the plastic one...
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LonelyTV:
Great question and answers. I am also looking at this tablet primarily as a note taking tool for Graduate school but I'm torn between getting the 10in or 12in. Does anyone here have experience with both of these sizes when it comes to taking lecture notes?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Yes. Personally I prefer the 12.2" because it's almost the exact size of an A4 paper. So no need to adapt to a smaller size. To me, on my 10.1" tablet, I kept running out of screen in the middle of my writing. Not to mention it was a little uncomfortable because your hand floats in mid air when writing anywhere but the middle of the screen. The 12.2" has almost 50% more screen.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] NineToTheSky:
My 12.2 Tab Pro loses about 10% charge for every hour in use: about right, I think. It takes about an hour to charge about 10% when not in use: rather slow in my opinion.

When I am using my Tab while connected to the mains, it will not charge. In fact, it loses about the same amount as when it is not being charged.

Using in this context is reading books (Kindle), reading newspapers (PresReader) and web browsing.

I have tried USB 3 and USB 2 plugged into a mains plug, and USB 2 directly connected to a mains plug. I have tried different cables and plugs. They all behave similarly.

Should it not charge when in use?

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] dodo99x:
If it takes an hour to charge 10% using the stock cable and charger, there's a hardware fault somewhere, be it your cable, charger or the tablet itself.

USB ports do not provide enough current to charge these devices. I understand that, when on, the power drain exceeds input from USB sources. I use AC with adapters rated at 2 A. I also have a car charger with that current rating that plugs into the car lighter. USB ports, whether in computers, cars, or airport lobbies are useless.

If you are using wall plug rated at 2A and are not charging, then one of the 3 components is bad (charger, cable, or phone).

slow charging

I bought my Tab pro 8.4 in June 2014. I use it about an hour each day and charge it when the charge drops below 30 percent.

Recently I have noticed, it takes all night to charge. This should not happen. my Ipod touch charges in less than 1 hour and its an old version 3, (6 years old or more)..

I am using the wall plug that came with the unit, to charge it. It should not be taking 12 hours.

This seems to be a problem with these 8.4's.

Galaxy Note Pro Battery Issues

I have the exact same issue with My Galaxy Note Pro. It will not charge while in use and the battery drains extremely fast even with most all settings turned off and screen brightness turned down. I turn the tablet off every night to charge and the charging speed is extremely slow. I am using all Samsung OEM cables and chargers. Ive tried USB 2 & 3 cables with no noticeable difference. I am going to do a factory wipe and then closely monitor the power useage. Im starting to think that there is an issue with the Note Pro based on the sheer amount of users reporting the same or similar problems.

If anyone has figured out the culprit behind this issue, please pass it along!

Battery indication issues

I have the same problem with charging the Note Pro 8.4.

After some investigation and multiple tries it seems very much that the reported battery level is not in line with "reality".

It happened numerous times that while the tablet was on and charging, the battery level did not go up or only 1% every hour or so. After reboot the reported battery level was much higher.

I decided to throw some apps from the tablet which vastly improved the battery level indication and more or less seem to work as expected. I know from previous experiences with my Note 2 that some apps/widgets can wreak havoc on very basic functionality like charging. For example the stock picture frame widget on the old Note 2 had the effect the charging icon did not update. After reboot of the phone it was much better. Removing the widget solved the problem.

All in all carefully check installed apps/widgets on the Note Pro (8.4) because the firmware does not seem to cope well with certain apps/widget combination whatever that may be...

Hello! I didn't want to create a thread, but can't find a solution anywhere else. So, recently I bought Xperia Z1 from small shop that sells used phones. It had no box. When it was bought it was tested with sim card of Lithuanian carrier, everything worked perfectly. Then it was sent to me to Norway, and here I tried to put Norwegian carrier SIM card. I have full signal, I connect to carriers network, I even have internet access, but I cannot call and send messages to anyone. I tried Lithuanian carrier SIM card - also can connect to network but cannot call and send messages. Tried fixing with Sony PC Companion - didn't help. When I turn it on, for few seconds I ged MM#6 error, then it disappears. I tried few online IMEI checkers and they say IMEI is not blacklisted. And I still don't want to mess with fiwmwares being not sure if it would help because I would lost warranty. Normally I would go to that shop but it is 1500 km away :/ Any help wold be appreciated very much!

The MM#6 error that shows up for 3-4 seconds

With Norwegian carrier SIM - full internet service but no voice service

Lithuanian SIM connected to Norwegian carriers network - still no voice service

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
You have to flash via Flashtool a new firmware to fix this problem, it will not void your warranty if you still stock. After that if the problem persist then you have to check if the phone is SIM Locked, if not, then it's a problem and You will have to call the shop. Start with flashing latest KK and wipe everything.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilvis1:
I reflashed it with 14.3.A.0.757 firmware, didn't help. This phone shouldn't be SIM-locked, because it was tested with Lihuanian carriers SIM and it worked fine. Now I'm trying different SIM from the same carrier in another country - it doesn't work (I have roaming turned on). I tried SIM from local carrier - still doesn't work. Both SIMs work perfectly in another phone. I guess I'll have to bring it to seller to fix it :/ Anyway, thank you for help!

Extract the downloaded file and run odin. Click PDA button and navigate to the cf auto root tar file you just extracted.

Your phone has the the stock 4.3 bootloader and using Odin to flash a stock ROM could have bricked your phone. Do not use Odin unless the 4.3 ROM has been compiled for use with Odin.

I recommend using Odin to flash the latest d2lte tar recovery. Then copy a custom KK ROM to your SD card and flash that instead of trying to flash a stock ROM.
