[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bishouji:
Working on this at 3am was a bad idea. Being tired and becoming impatient was not a good combination. I was running version 4.4.2 for Samsung Note 3. Upon trying to downgrade the firmware to 4.3 using the official .md5 from sammobile, it went through almost the entire process, failed, and I received an error code in Odin v3.09 under Message:

NAND WRITE START!!

FAIL! (Auth)

Phone was stuck in download mode with almost the full loading bar. After about 20 minutes of waiting and becoming impatient, I pulled the battery. Upon bootup, I have become stuck in Odin Mode. When booting up, I get this, minus quotations:

"ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: SM-N900A

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

System Status: Official

KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0x0

KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x0

QUALCOM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (CSB)

RP SWREV: S2, T2, R2, A3, P2

WIRE PROTECTION: ENABLE

UDC START

Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please Select recovery mode in Kies & try again."

I have tried recovering in Kies, but it does not recognize it. I can not boot into recovery mode, but I can still boot into download mode (thankfully). I have retried using the official firmware again as well as a Poland 4.4 release (as recommended on an article in this forum) After a google search, I came across an article on droidviews on "How to Unbrick AT&T Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900A"

I attempted to follow their tutorial. In odin, it seems to go well all the way to the very end. I tried initially without the bootloader, then a second time with. I keep getting the same error message (there are previous lines stating what it has done, I can post if needed):

NAND WRITE START!!

FAIL! (Auth)

The phone hangs up again and I have to do a battery pull.

Additional notes, possibly not helpful: I did do a factory reset before attempting this. Attempted to use Odin 3.07. After searching these forums, I have tried CF-Autoroot, using CWM recovery.tar, All through out this, I have tried using different cables other than factory, tried it on 3 total different computers (home desktop, laptop, and now work computer), different usb ports, entirely uninstalling and reinstalling drivers, and verified that Kies was not running in the background (terminated through task manager). Found an article in this forum to do just a re-partition in Odin using a PIT file. I used the one I got from droidview mentioned above. It says successful in Odin, then the phone starts to power-cycle at the Samsung splash screen. I can still boot into download mode, but I can not boot into the recovery mode (power cycles again). After the power cycling, I attempted to reflash the AP, and after it goes through almost the entire process, it gets the error "FAIL! (Auth)" and phone hangs up again. After reboot, I get the error on the phone again, "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue..."

Let me know if there is any other information you need me to provide. I am willing to try whatever I need to do to get it fixed if anyone has any ideas. Very desperate. Any help is greatly appreciated!

re: Odin flash Firmware

Get the official NB4 Samsung 4.4.2 note 3 firmware for your phone's

model number from http://SamMobile.com and Odin flash it.

You cannot downgrade to 4.3 firmware.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bishouji:
Unfortunately, they have only released the 4.3 firmware through that website even though the 4.4.2 firmware was released sometime in March.

Have a look around HERE I bet you missed this and you can have it fixed in less than 10 minutes :good: - If not, feel free to tag me and I'll respond :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bishouji:
I noticed the dedicated forums, and unfortunately I couldn't find anything helpful minus the Root de la Vega thread (which is what I was originally going off of to root). My best guess was that I was going to have to wait until Samsung had the official release of 4.4.2 website. Who knows when that would be, so I just got back from my local AT&T Device Support Center and had it replaced. Thankfully the KNOX indicator wasn't tripped. Thank you guys for the help!
[LG Optimus G Pro] cdhlg:
How can I disable LTE. I have tried a few suggestion from this site, and havent got it to work. I am not tech savvy at all.

I went and got at&t service in December 2013 and bought the LG G2 phone and loved the phone. Everything was great with

The phone, data speed and connections until April 12th. I was not able to load any web page, and when on facebook it would

not update the page. It would tell the that I was not connected to the network, when I had all 5 signal bars. I also noticed that it also

now said LTE under the 4G. So they sent me another phone (lg g2) and I still had the same problem, so I then went and got a new

sim card, and that did not fix it either. So they sent me another phone. So now I have the LG OPTIMUS PRO E980 . I also figured out

that the only time I am able to use data is while I am on a phone call. And when i make a call, it changes from 4g LTE to just 4G. So

I called at&t to ask them how to disable LTE and they told me that they couldnt tell me how to do it because they dont support it.

I work from home, and use my phone for work, so this is really hurting me. What isbreally weird is that I have a tower about 1/4 mile

from my house. I am sorry for such a long post. I am not tech savvy either, so alot of whatvyall talk about, I have no clue what

it means, lol. Like rooted, bricked and flashed. HELP PLEASE! Thank you in advance.
[LG Optimus G Pro] abumy:
Under settings, mobile data, is there a place to select "preferred network type"? I remember it being there.

On cm11 it can be selected, either LTE, 3g, or 2g.
[LG Optimus G Pro] cdhlg:
Hello, and thank you for the response Abumy.

Yes, the option is there, but it is greyed out

and will not let me select it.

Anymore suggestions, please??

Thanks so much
[LG Optimus G Pro] esimon311:
Have you tried changing the APN.

Its in setting/tethering & networks/mobile networks/access point name..

Once there click your menus button and add Apn..

Input the info listed below. One of these should accomplish what u want. Oh and make sure after you enter the apn to hit menus and save.

[LG Optimus G Pro] abumy:
There is an an app that will let you set it to 3g, but it seems to require root on some devices:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cc.signalinfo.

On some att phones dialing *#*#4636#*#* can give one access to these settings too.

I am not running stock and not on att, so I cannot test it.
[LG Optimus G Pro] cdhlg:
OH MY GOODNESS IT WORKED!!!!

No more relying on LTE. YOU DO NOT KNOW

Thank you so so very much for your help!!

4G works just fine
[LG Optimus G Pro] abumy:
Glad to hear it's working for you.
[LG Optimus G Pro] cdhlg:
What about APN'S for the LG G2 phone? I have to

send one of the 2 phones back, and I would much

rather keep the LG G2, if I could figure a way out to

not have to use LTE. I really appreciate everyones help

here!!!
[LG Optimus G Pro] abumy:
The apn would be pretty much the same wouldn't it?

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] PolarWind:
I've been having issues connecting to my wifi. It will connect, then after a few seconds drop signal, then reconnect, etc... all in a more or less non stop action.

The SSID is not broadcast, it's an N only 5ghz signal, and I have MAC filtering (permit only) enabled.

My girlfriend's M7 connects without issue.

I don't know if it's the phone, my router, or Sprint Connection optimizer? This is extremely frustrating, any help would be appreciated.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] schmeggy929:
Turn off Sprint Connection Optimizer and also Settings/WiFi/Menu/Advanced/ uncheck Wi-Fi optimization.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] PolarWind:
Looks like it was the Wi-Fi Optimization. After unchecking that, the connection stabilized.

[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] migueldias94:
I'm still on Color OS 1.2 and it's driving me crazy, i'm just waiting for a stable ROM to jump ship as fast as i can. It's the buggiest stock ROM i've ever used, the stock gallery app crashes, almost everytime. VSCO in-camera camera crashes. I had one random reboot, but this is not the worst.

The settings. I love SwiftKey so i naturally installed it, and everything goes okay until i try to use it. It works, it works perfectly, but everytime an app requests keyboard usage, the SwiftKey keyboard launches but a notification always appears, it reads "Choose Input Method" so i tap it, and choose SwiftKey and the pop-up goes away but the notification is still there. I tap it again and the same window pops, and again and again.

I go to the Input Settings to try and choose SwiftKey once and for all, but ColorOS doesn't let me uncheck Oppo Swype, i tap it but the checkmark doesn't go away. So basically i have both SwiftKey and Oppo's Swype active. That's okay, i can live with the constant notification and Oppo's Swype active as long as the keyboard launching is SwiftKey.

But, if i reboot the phone, and try to use an app, a wild Oppo Swype appears. I go to the settings and SwiftKey is unchecked. So basically everytime i reboot the phone i have to check SwiftKey in order to use it. I'd love to delete Oppo's Stock keyboard, but i don't know how.

Another thing that is annoying me a little too much is Facebook. Everytime i reboot my phone, i have to add my Facebook account in the Accounts Settings. What's strange is that, even without my FB account activated in the settings, if i open the FB Messenger or the FB app they both login automatically but if i open another app that communicates with a FB account (Chronus for example), i have to add my FB login manually because the app says that i do not have any FB account linked to my phone, and what's strange is that i thought this could maybe be due to my FB app being stored in phone storage, so i moved it to system storage and as soon as i tapped the "Move to system" button, my Find 7a rebooted.

And i won't install 2.0 Beta since it must be even worse atm. I'm craving for a stable ROM.

edit: I can't even change the order of my home screens.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] marthell:
Don't be scared by the "beta", in my opinion 2.0 is a lot more stable than 1.2. And a lot of the bloatware is gone.

[Samsung Gear 2] antvuur:
Hi,

I got my gear 2 this morning and was looking to use it with my Sony Z. I found this app in the market ' Gear 2 Superfix ' . After installing the app it connected perfectly. Nearly everything works apart for weather and a couple more things.

There is an update for the gear manager (2.14041404) but am unable to install that yet.

Also in my gear manager i dont have Samsung Apps iether.

Anyway on the whole im happy it works on my not rooted sony z.

I'd be pleased to here from anyone who als uses this app. It cost 7 euros.

Regards Ant
[Samsung Gear 2] BigDanInTX:
I think he means GEAR 2 SUPERFIXER (air.creatix.neoguide in Google Play Store), created by CREATIX DIGITAL.

It's currently listed at $8.99.

It's promising to know that there are options if I choose not to get a Samsung phone down the line.
[Samsung Gear 2] mpogr:
Real advantages?

If anyone played with this app, could you, please, post if this app has any real advantages over the free methods, specifically in the following areas that have not been working otherwise:

Weather

SMS, Email and Phone Call history browsing (I'm not talking about notifications, I'm talking about browsing previous text messages, emails and phone call history, please, be specific about it)

SMS and Email composition using S Voice

Receiving phone alarms on the watch

Fitness apps requiring GPS support (biking and hiking)

Also, the screenshot included with the app on Google Play suggests it has a way of rooting the Gear 2 (not the original Gear!) watch. Is it really the case?
[Samsung Gear 2] Tay Za:
I can't make it work with Samsung Note 8.0

I bought it and installed on Note 8.0 GT-N5100, I am able to establish the Bluetooth connection with Gear 2, I can sync the Address book and call out form Gear 2.

But in the Gear Manager, it only shown paired and I can't connect it. so I can't do or configure anything.
[Samsung Gear 2] nrseife:
No need to purchase this app for the Note 8.0. The Note 8.0 with KK is fully compatible with Gear 2 (you just need to sideload Gear Manager). The only thing that does not work is the gear samsung app store access, but superfixer does nit fix that either...
[Samsung Gear 2] OhMgEeeee:
Decided to take one for the team and test it. It seems to just have you download a slightly different version of Samsung's Gear Manager. But when I go to pair the device with it on my Galaxy S4 it just stalls out at connecting. (it could possibly be working idk) I will post screen shots of the software and what has you download. It might simply be my cyanogen 10.2.1 preventing it from working. Upgrading to cyanogen 11 to test.

Hey guys,

since I got my new phone the thl 5000 I can not use my gear 2 neo.

On my former phone the HTC one X I could use it with a rom.

The thl 5000 has android 4.4.2 and bluetooth 4.0 so why can I not use the gear.

Has somebody an idea maybe Superfixer.

Thank you
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmose:
Hello :)

because my Touchpad, running CM9, got slower and slower I decided to clean it and put an Update on it.

I need a stable (as possible) ROM with working camera, wi-fi, sound and video acceleration. Bluetooth would be nice but not necessary.

I don't need new apps from newer versions, etc.

It's a 32 GB Version.

Which ROM would you suggest me and where to get it+gapps?

Thanks in advance!

With kind regards

Cosy
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstar:
The I would suggest that you view the development thread where you will see the different roms for this device and links to gapps or whatever else you may need will be available in the Opening Post what people want or need is down to the user. There you will be able to read individual comments about what does or doesn't work and be able to make your own informed decision.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmose:
There are numerous development threads and I don't know which to read.

In addition I can't read a thread holding 250 pages of posts just to pick a ROM.

A little hint would be nice.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstar:
Here's a hint I'm using Milaq's KK Rom and you don't need to read 250 pages just the op and the last few or more if you feel like it.

But it comes down to you making an informed decision.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gabre:
I would need the same, and I dont see a reason why you guys that tried all the roms could simple write down a version thats stable and functional, I dont care if its NAdroid 4.2, or 4.3. or 4.4, I just need a functional tablet that has a functional Skype, Netflix and wifi.

Is that a big problem to write, I dont have hours and hours of time to searc (which is useless) to figure out which rom. A small baby at home, work I have everyday, and really not spare time to waste on research.

I apologize in advance if someone gets ofended, but at the time when I was a kid I would spend hours messing online, now I dont have that anymore.

On topic - my biggest issue that the tablet is draining battery like crazy, and is totally glitchy, slows down, all though everything works, but slow and battery is ridiculous.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstar:
Well if you read my post which you have quoted you'll see that I did make a recommendation but if you you're after someone to wipe your bottom and put a cookie in your mouth it won't be me. It's the arrogance of people like yourself that makes me wonder why I or anybody else bothers to try and be helpful.

Have a nice weekend I know you've p***ed me of.

can you confirm that the camera and mic works fine for Skype, does netflix app works fine, and video playback of files?

Hardware repairs

Ok so here we go. Basically you should follow the video I have found on youtube. I did. There are few comments on my side though:

I changed the body using only Torx T5 and Philips 00x40 screwdrivers. They are like 2$ each (I think, I am not in USA)

when it says unscrew four T5 screws I recommend getting rid of philips 00x40 screw too, instead of doing it later

at about 2:00 it says lift SIM and card reader. In the movie it goes like *snap* and gone. Real life experience is that this is glued. You will have to steadily and slowly pull it, watching the glue slowly going off.

after you remove the back cover there will be a piece of tape underneath it. take it off and apply on new body. Otherwise backlit buttons migh flash through between body and battery cover.

speaking about tape... I though my sound control buttons were not working due to their tape being used. Also my power button was collapsed. AFTER REPLACING THE BODY WITH NEW BUTTONS, EVERYTHING WORKS FLAWLESSLY! The phone also has this nice soft feeling to it. I bought my saga used and I have it for a year so in many places the paint was just scratched off.

Optimization

Settings Optimilization

Minimum and Maximum CPU Frequency

These are the values between which your cpu will scale it's clockspeed. The lower is Min value the less battery your phone should consume when not bothered. Max value is the border of how high you will let you CPU go.

The higher it goes the more battery it eats. Many people say it improves the performance, some that it doesn't. Too high values can cause freezes so don't be surprised when that happens

HTC Desire S values:

Min 245-368

Max 1024-1401

Experimental 1516-1804 (usually causing issues)

U can also try using ART runtime. On my phone it makes everything run little better

Rest of Performance settings don't do any good IMHO. U are welcome to prove me wrong though. I will also make bareboning list but not feeling like it right now so maybe in the evening/tomorrow.
