[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nxneko:
I had a bad day took a bath and...i fell asleep so the phones corner (were headset plug is) got dipped into the warm tub. Luckly the phone still responds there is no major damage and I see...NO damage or proof water got inside. All waterseals were not voided... it just glitches out on screen and it scares me.

unfortunately its on 4.4.2 kitkatkiller & 0x1 does anyone know if samsung will still fix it or replace it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] topherk:
One thing you can try is unplugging the battery and leaving the phone in a jar of rice overnight. That has been known to suck the water out of electronics and may help with the glitchy screen. I doubt it'll solve the problem, but it's worth a shot.

As a rule of thumb, I don't recommend that people try to do the Samsung Warranty on their own mess-ups. To quote

their warranty website

:

The warranty doesn't cover water damage or user error. It

only

covers manufacturer defects or repairs caused by "normal" activities.

Yes, your water stickers aren't betraying the fact that your phone has water damage, but the fact of the matter is that you are, effectively, trying to cheat your way into a free, refurbished phone (on Samsung's dime).

I could go on and on about these types of practices (in fact,

I have

), but I'm not going to today. I'll just end with a quote that I find applicable to this situation:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nxneko:
I was not hoping to get a fix on samsungs dime since I am well aware its in BER status now, it would be a costly fix but maybe worth it over a new N3 though sometimes BER status devices do go over the MSRP for repair cost...I also heard sprint can do repairs though and charges a fee ontop of it for convenience...but I have no idea if anything else is damaged with the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] topherk:
I'm not sure what BER status is, but if you're willing to pay for the repairs, then my last post was not applicable.

Also, if you're willing to pay for the repairs, Samsung (or Sprint) will be able to fix your phone, regardless of what ROM you have. As far as if it'll be less costly than a new phone, I would expect so, but I can't say how much it'd be.

I still recommend the rice trick and see if that helps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nxneko:
BER status is what samsung marks devices that have been repaired by 3rd party companies or opened by the user = Beyond Economic Repair. Which means you pay a huge out of pocket premium to the fix versus normal servicing.

I did not have TEP on sprint but the lady added it for me even though I was 35 days into plan and i purchased this phone off swappa, so repair will be free (i think?) unless it needs to be claimed which is 50~200 apparently...either way cheaper then BER service from sammy itself.

and to be a good girl, I wet a cotton swab and activated the water damage indicator on battery so they know its water damaged, even though I wasnt about to because they threw me to curb over intl. use...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jivankovich:
Just do a claim on http://phoneclaim.com/sprint the deductible would be 200 just say you dropped it in water and don't say anything about it being rooted to them. And they will send you a new one next day no problem
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nxneko:
I took it to local store instead. Phone decided to be perfectly functional, even the guy was like "oh nice rom but how do you see stuff?" but right when I was walking out the phones vibrator turned on. and did not stop, you tap it it turns off you tap it again it turns back on....so they have it at the moment.

edit: they called me said there was no internal damage, etc only some "debris?" and he blew it out and the phones been working fine. So my butt got saved on this one....maybe.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ferg8080:
Okay revisiting my old broken N7000 from several months ago and not quite sure what I managed to do back then but my main aim was to clear personal data before selling it on as a repairable. Something I haven't done yet.

The display screen is completely inoperational so have no idea what I'm looking at when phone is booted up. I know phone still works as soft keys still light up and vibrate when touched. In an attempt to verify I have succeeded clearing my personal data I installed Kies only for the required sammy usb drivers which would allow me to browse the internal storage of the phone.

My question now is what directories should I be looking at to see if personal data has been cleared and is there anything else I need to worry about? Please see my signature to see what my setup was.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxPixX:
Well, I'm sure if you formatted with a PIT file it would clear everything out... but that is a bit dangerous.

Do you remember which kernel/recovery you have?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ferg8080:
Can't I just delete key files/folders manually?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jackwu696:
That's what [MENTION=5015998]XxPixX[/MENTION] was talking about. If you know what recovery r u in, then u can predict what to press to go to mount&storage to mount your sdcard to connect to your PC or laptop. From there then you will get access to erase your wanted datas/folders.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ferg8080:
When you say sdcard are you talking about built-in internal memory which is where I assume personal data is kept?

When I connect to PC I can already see my internal storage .....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jackwu696:
Yes... I suppose formatting it should erase everything.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxPixX:
Our phone (like many others) has several partitions. Your personal files such as photos, films, music, s-note notes etc. are stored on the 11GB partition you can see when you plug your phone into the computer. There is also one more important for us partition (/data) which stores nearly all of the most important data such as sms'es, phone numbers, logins to google and generally all the data generated by your apps.

If you format it with a PIT file then everything will be nicely cleared out (but it is dangerous and you would then have to reflash Jelly bean). That will guarantee that ALL (not exactly true but close enough) data is gone from the phone, it would be like new.

If you know what the recovery/kernel/android version is then we can help you guide yourself to the format options in the recovery from which you can perform a data wipe.

There might also be the possibility that you can use ADB to reformat, however I have never done it that way. This could be the simpleset as all you have to do is boot into recovery and do the rest on the computer.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nhokcok:
As title, i try to install custom recovery on my Note 3 Sm-n9005 by Odin. But after all, when i reboot it into recovery mode it doesn't work and reboot into normal boot. Is there any solution for this problem?

One thing more, my odin mode:

Product name: SM-N9005

Current Binary: Custom

System Status: Custom

Reactivation Lock Yes

Knox Kernel lock: 0x0

Qualcomm secureboot: Enable

Write Protection: Enable

UDC start.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
If you want a custom recovery you MUST ROOT the phone first.

CF-Autoroot is best for rooting the Note 3.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khizar:
You need to read before messing with your phone. Turn off reactivation lock, with that you can't flash anything in odin and there is a chance of messing up your phone.

For a step by step guide read the guide that is linked in my sig..

No. That's a myth, there is no need to root to install custom recovery.

So its died a day ago and i tried to charge it all day from yesterday and nothing happened.

But, 10 min ago I read that I should tried to connect it to my pc, and i pressed the power button and the volume down and when I did, my pc told me that its installing drivers.. (like most of the time when you plug USB device to your pc) but its failed..

is there any way to revive my phone?
[HTC One X] achtungpakhtoon:
Are you sure its dead. Do you see the charging indicator light up whilst charging? The HOX has a history of dead display so it might be that.
[HTC One X] road_sigma:
Same Here

Hey same thing happened with my HTC One X today too. Installed a new Custom ROM which was working perfectly fine untill I drained the battery completely. Now the phone wont charge, nor respond to any combination of keys I press.

Any clue?

And is this what is referred to as bricking?

[Samsung Gear Fit] MrClean69:
I took my Gear Fit off and put it on my nightstand while I took a shower, when I came back out it was in a constant reboot. I know it was charged since I had done that last night.

I tried everything I could think of, holding the power button didn't seem to do anything. What finally got it out of the reboot was hooking it up to the charger and holding the power button until I felt it vibrate twice. I had tried that earlier, but only felt one vibration and let go of the power button. So if anyone experiences this behavior, hold the power button until you feel two vibrations and hopefully yours will come back up as well.

I did have to pair it with my phone again, but all my settings were still in Fit Manager. Only had to switch screen rotation and wallpaper.
[Samsung Gear Fit] chumpalunski:
Mine has done the same. Did it while charging. Rebooted itself and got stuck in a constant rebooting loop. I used odin to reset by flashing the firmware. It worked. Your method is a lot less time consuming.
[Samsung Gear Fit] SwePinnen:
constant reboot

Edit
[Samsung Gear Fit] chumpalunski:
Get in download mode and reflash firmware thru odin.
[Samsung Gear Fit] SwePinnen:
I have searched through the forums but I have not been able to find out how you did it, so...I have to ask:

what version of odin did you use and where did you find the stock rom file for SM-R3500?

When i try to connect to kies via usb it freezes my computer so I guess that You did not use Kies at all?

Sorry for being a noob! :)
[Samsung Gear Fit] pRo_lama:
Why do not you use the Search button :confused: And also In Gear Fit section is not so many threads so it's easy to find something. :good:

Ugh my PC is broke so I can't flash it and the first method isn't working :(
[Samsung Gear Fit] madlerza:
This may help

Ok so I had the same problem as you all with gear fit constantly rebooting. Here is how I resolved it:

1) Download KIES (It is a sumsung app which you can use to update the firmware on the gear fit)

2) Once dowloaded, you need to get a cable to attach the end of the charger to a USB port on the computer

3) When the gear fit says "Rebooting" on the bottom of the screen. Press the button 5 times.

4) It should then give you 2 options. Continue and Dowload. press the button one to scroll down to "DOWNLOAD" then press and hold the button for 3 seconds. A screen will come up saying the fit is downloading.

5) Open KIES.

6) In the tools menu go to firmware upgrade and initialization

7) Follow the steps. It will ask you for information on the back of the gear fit.

8) Connect the gear fit to the computer when KIES asks you to.

9) It will then download the firmware and you should be good to go.

Hope this helps

[Samsung Gear Fit] LoopyMind:
Gear Fit boot loop / Odin stuck in "NAND writestart!!!", flash fails...

at the time of posting this, ODIN 3.10.6 was the latest version, and the ONLY version of ODIN to actually be able to flash my Gear Fit with new firmware after the Gear Fit got stuck in a boot loop.

I used the R350XXU0BNG2_R350OXA0BND8 firmware, but there might be newer versions already I'm guessing since the first thing my Gear Fit wanted, was the latest firmware as soon as it was reunited with my S4 :)

So if your ODIN get's stuck on the "NAND write start!!!" bit and then fails, check your version (3.07 and 3.09 didn't work for me).

Btw, if ODIN get's stuck at that point and your Gear Fit is showing a progress-bar, it's okay to remove your Gear Fit,

the actual flashing process hasn't started then and you wont brick your Gear Fit.

DO NOT REMOVE YOUR GEAR FIT WHEN THE FLASHING IS ACTUALLY IN PROGRESS!!!!!
[Samsung Gear Fit] macjr82:
Thank you. First thing that worked for me. Been in reboot lop for months!
[Samsung Gear Fit] jirkaking:
Quick Summary, all from that post/tutorial:

The 5x button tap and 3 second hold into Download mode

Using Odin v3.09 (3.10 did not work -- had to be 3.09. Fickle fickle.)

Using the firmware files linked here (even though they are old):

dropbox. com/s/h03xk0hppxvwsb4/r350xxu0bnd8.rar

Loading up the BL/AP/CSC files, respectively, and changing none of the settings

Plugging the Fit into the PC, including trying a variety of cable, port, and timing combinations (Again, so fickle. Just keep messing with it until Odin recognizes the COM port.)

Starting, waiting, restarting Odin when it got stuck, restarting the Fit when it got stuck again, generally just trying the same instructions multiple times until everything cooperated.

Eventually, it downloaded and the Fit restart to factory new. Now time to update the firmware the normal way, through Gear Fit Manager.

So, that's what worked for me. Good luck to everyone else!
[Samsung Gear Fit] MistyBE:
Thank you! I actually had to hold my button down for over 30 seconds before it stopped rebooting. I was on the phone with Samsung support - NO HELP! and had already got a return label from Amazon to return it - very kind option, when I saw this forum. Glad I did. Now I still have my watch and it works!

When Wi-fi is enabled &device is idle/sleep, not getting emails & chat notifications

Hello Team,

I bought New S5 T-mobile Version. When my Wifi is enabled and the device is sleep or idle, emails, facebook, whatsapp and other notifications are not coming. I sent a test email from another device and whatsapp message from my friends device. I did not got any notification when my phone was idle.

Hi everyone,

Sorry if this is in the wrong place (this is my first post) but it seems like the only place after 10 minutes of looking around that might actually be of some assistance.

I bought a phone from Melanesia that claimed to be a N9000 and has that model number printed on the back in the battery compartment. When i check the settings it states that it is a U9000 and upon doing some research have found that it is a international phone that dose not have 4g capability.

What im trying to find out is if there is a way i can transplant a 4g antenna into this phone to make it pick up the signal range i am wanting or if i just need to Root the thing and try to get it to do what i want from there. I am also considering both options since that seems more feasible

Any support you can provide would be greatly appreciated. I like the phone its just too slow for me on the connections to view Reddit or Youtube.

Thanks again,

Tman

[MX Player] CDB-Man:
Would clearing cache in MX settings on exit accomplish the same thing? Or, could you have a .nomedia file in the MX cache folder so that your media players skip over it, or specify the cache folder as excluded from scanning?

[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
I don't know the intention behind your request. But, it will impact the player performance much when you have lot of videos. Whenever you open MX Player it will take some time to regenerate thumbnail for all available videos.
