Wait there is an otterbox for the tablet now? I was starting to think they weren't going to release one so I bought the Trident Kraken. Great, just past the 30 day mark too :(

Great find.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Accessories] schleger89:
Been using this case since it's release and I love the durability it gives the tablet for working in the construction industry but it does just about double the thickness of the case. The stand is more or less a cover that can snap on the front or back of the tablet to add protection to the screen while traveling. Look up reviews for the iPad defender case as it is pretty much identical in function. I can try and get some pics of it later if someone wants it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Accessories] matsuru:
photo review would be very very nice. :)

although I love otterbox (had it for my hp winmo) the price is very expensive and I don't think I can justify buying it.

I'm typing on it right now- case is solid and stand works great but Has a like bulky but worth it.

Yes they are expensive but cheaper than a repair. This tablet is stupidly fragile. I should know screen cracked yesterday. Put a screen protector on it to smooth glass. All kinds of bubbles from glass shards and the inside is really dusty due to having to reapply because stupid glass shards

Hi all,

I currently own the m8 and love it for its awesome sound quality, however the camera is absolute pants!

The only other phone I'd consider is the z2 but I am worried that the volume and sound quality via headphones will be disappointing. Can anyone tell me if the z2 with the sound mod will be as good as the m8?

Thanks
[Xperia Z2 General] xarfrost:
I would admit loudspeakers are not as good as M8. But with the headphones, its so much better, background noise is cancelled out thus youre getting more out of your music. Bass and stuff. And its comfortable too. Just a small tip, try listening to music on landscape while on loudspeaker, magically improves music experience. No tricks, no software magic. Just how your ear works. Try it!
[Xperia Z2 General] lynxboy:
When I first purchased the phone I was very disappointed with the sound quality coming from a Wolfson Galaxy S3. Now with RomAur (Beats + Sound Mod + Viper) and Doomkernel (Faux Sound) I am very happy.

I use a combination of Faux/Viper/Walkman settings in combination with the preinstalled Beats and Z2 Sound Mod and the audio quality now rivals my S3 and surpassed my HTC One M7 (via my Sony ZX-600 headphones). Can't speak for the M8 sadly.

TL:DR - Z2 sound quality stock is disappointing. With mods it's great.

Regards.
[Xperia Z2 General] Zentheld:
Both phones use the same DAC. The difference in sound comes from software and the headphone port. The Z2 has a nice black background, so its headphone port must be decent. It also has a very nice bass boost in its built in equalizer, which works in any music app and not just the Walkman app. The reason I like the bass boost is because it boosts the lower end more than the higher end bass, so it doesn't bleed into the mids. I don't use the Clear Audio+ option as it just increases the treble but also narrows the soundstage.

The included IEMs are also very decent for bundled earphones. They have a nice flat frequency response but can also give punchy bass when you make them. They have decent instrument separation as well. They could maybe do with a little more clarity, but that's all really. The noise cancelling also works really well.

I've never had the privilege of listening to any Wolfson DACs, but the DAC inside my Z2 sounds quite comparable to the Texas Instruments DAC inside my JDS Labs C5D. It's to do with taste more than anything at this point. Again, the DACs in the M8 and Z2 are the same, so they shouldn't sound too different with software tweaks off. Can you not just try one out in a store anyway?
[Xperia Z2 General] angerousevil:
Im using z2. Sound mod with headphones enchanting is not working for me. Its comes bugging noises. So i do prefer using sound mod without headphone enchanted. For m8 i cannot tell. But for my z2, i fully satisfy. Amazing sound with my sennheiser ie-80. Deep and detail bass. Good for easy listening. The trebles is smooth. And great Vocal too. Over all surpassing my htc one sc. Im using original rom v 314. Doomkernel v10. And yes i prefer sound enchantment than clear audio +. Ram, camera, sound, waterproof. Its comparable device for me.
[Xperia Z2 General] Jiyeon90:
Can confirm that the sound quality you get out of the box is very good, playing with the eq settings makes it even better. It's noticeable better than the Z1.

I'm using the A-Jays Three earphones and I'm really pleased although I'm wondering if getting the noice cancelling earphones would give me a even better experience.

Are they worth getting it?

[Xperia Z2 General] brouwerchris:
For noise canceling they are great,sound quality is OK but not the best you can buy.
[Xperia Z2 General] GeekyAndroid:
Sound on my Z2 is quite decent with the official ROM, however if you flash CM and that would be gone instantly and the volume will be very low.

I prefer using headphones over loudspeaker anyways but it would be better with a Mod, can someone post a link to a thread or something?

Thanks.
[Xperia Z2 General] SWEagle:
Well I don't really like the sound and noise cancelling on the official Sony Rom!

You really have to tweak it to be good.

The really best wound comes when you have a CM Rom installed and the equalizer set to Rock! It's is fantastic for any type of music. And If you want it louder there is mod for that...

No noise cancelling, clear sound, Beats... whatever, can "beat" the sound that come out a CM rom... in my opinion of course... :p

If you can have custom recovery without unlocking bootloader. The answer is no needed. Because u need to flash zip with cwmr/twrp. Try to search xda forum about that.

2 days ago screen of my g2 was dark suddenly. i turned it off and on again. after 2 seconds display becomes dark again. all other functions were fine. i called service an they told me to reflash firmware by lg-support-tool and "reset upgrade failure". i connected G2 to PC and entered download-mode and started flashing. unfortunately my wife caused a short circuit an my PC went off.

now my G2 ist dead. when i connect it to pc, win 7 finds a lot of new drives and i should format them. one of the drives is accessible and shows some data. but in all cases display of g2 stays dark. display manager shows G2 as Qalcomm HS_USB.

What can i do?

Last night before I went to sleep my phone battery died, woke up and now it wont turn on at all and it doesn't charge. I tried different chargers but that didn't help, i just tried it in my computer, it's on the charging screen right now, there's a battery icon with a yellow triangle next to it. When the screen goes off, there is no red LED light to show it's charging, any help please?

Edit: the led light is flashing red now.

Try another battery, or wait and see if the charger recovers the damaged one. You may find partition damage, search and read for hundreds of similar threads.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spere:
Okay guys, this is not first thread about this subject but give your thoughts please.

I have:

Note 3 (SM-N9005) running some JB 4.3, unrooted

Note Pro 12.2 LTE (SM-N905) running KK 4.2

So far I haven't got any problems with Note 3, so kinda no reason to update it to 4.4, but does that update do more good or harm to me, since no way to dowgrade back.

About ext. sdcard writing problem, I haven't noticed anything that differs between my JB Note 3 and KK NP 12.2 :eek:

Main reason why I would want KK on my Note 3 is Samsung SideSync feature (works only on KitKat devices) that I could use my Note 3 through my NP 12.2..

But is that really that good reason to update fully working phone (if there comes some problems with KitKat)??

Please help me with this, thanks :P
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antique_sonic:
For me personally, I don't see more harms compare to the good parts.

I understand so many ppl do complain about KK firmwares. And to be frank, those problems stated, I have never experienced on my N9005 device (**touch wood**) :)

My ext. sd card writing also has no problem eversince I upgraded from JB to KK for the first time.

S-view cover, some also stated they experience problems, but my S-view is working just fine. And I have a fake S-view (made in China) :P

But all is your decision to make. My only advise is... if you really want to upgrade, after the upgrade is done, no matter you still can go through the homescreen, try to do factory reset from stock recovery. This step is very simple, but do help a lot to avoid future unnecessary problems (example : battery drains, FC, freeze, sudden reboot, phone very slow, etc).

So, my suggestions is, do backup of your important data (before upgrade) to your external SD, or to your laptop/PC.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x102x96x:
i

yeah there few changes in KK update of N3

few GUI improvement

reason u may like to update is RAM management that is in native KitKat codes that of course others implements it.

:good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spere:
Thanks, both of you..

I think I'm gonna update when I got some time to make all backups of my phone.

But let's see if this get some more replys and maby some pros/cons about KitKat

I have original S-View (which I do not use, since it makes phone too bulky for me), so I'm not worried about KitKat affects to those covers.

On my NP 12.2 running KK I haven't seen any issues with external sdcard so that should be fine.

(Possible??) battery drain issues don't scare me, and of course if I update, I'm going to make factory reset from recovery to make "clean" install

Last time I updated my phone, a day after I found URDLV, way to root without tripping KNOX. But obviously it was too late since that update patched bootloader, LOL.

I bet this wont most probably happen when going from JB to KK, that someone finds a way to root JB without tripping KNOX, but not for KK.

KitKat makes device faster/smoother (I've read somewhere, don't know is it really noticable on daily use?)

So what else you people have noticed running KK versus JB, any other cons and how about pros?

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spere:
Yep... So I pulled the trigger and updated my phone.

First impressions:

-It's a lot faster

-After update my USB 3.0 connection works no more to my PC (My NP 12.2 USB 3 connection also don't work, now I found what's the reason.. KitKat)

-My favourite internet browser force closes when trying to open it (I loved it since it was like ICS stock browser, got those must have fast button when you slide from edge of screen, it was fast and always on fullscreen exept when you opened adress line from fast button :P Does any of you know any similar browser working on (non rooted) KitKat?)

It takes 100++ years to get phone back to "usable" state (All settings, homescreens, app drawer, apps and they're settings, WIFI settings, paired BT devices...etc..etc....)

Let's see what else time shows me

So I just got a Pioneer AVH-4000NEX and a new Viper alarm installed and I'm having this maddening issue. Before installation, I never removed my phone from the stock radio bluetooth list and now my phone is getting raped with bluetooth pairing requests.

I can't access the bluetooth menu for the car because the stock radio is disconnected. Because of this, I'm getting TONS of notifications on my phone and my music is randomly pausing every 30 seconds to a minute.

I'm afraid to disconnect the battery because I don't want my alarm to go off... ugh

I searched last night for about 2 hours on how to change my bluetooth MAC address to prevent the pairing requests (because I can't delete the phone from the bluetooth module without the stock radio). Anyone with a solution??

I have an Orange M600, but when people phone me & want to leave a message the phone rings for around 1 minute before being diverted to the answerphone which I feel is far too long.

Does anybody know how to shorten this waiting time, I have looked through the manuals and the only setting I can see is to change to answer after 3 rings without pushing any buttons which isn't what I want.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] hanmin:
I think that's the Orange problem. You can't really get anything to make it faster. You can try calling your friend (on Orange) to see if it is the same 1 minute.

For example, to forward to 1234567890 after allowing your phone to ring for 25 seconds, you would enter:

replace 1234567890 with your voice mail number...
