[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luke318is:
Ok, so last OTA worked. Here is what i did:

I used triangle away's feature to hide system modified warning

i downloaded the OTA update

I disabled the triangle away fix before installing OTA (like it says to do in triangle away)

Phone rebooted and installed the OTA in CWM

Done.

I tried this today to upgrade from 4.3 to whatever is being pushed by my carrier (kitkat)

this time, when i install the OTA, it reboots to CWM and CWM says "install untrusted zip?" I hit yes, it says install aborted. I hit no, it says same thing.

I have heard others mention this, and were told to restore a stock recovery. I have found instructions to do that here:

http://www.android.gs/how-to-install-stock-recovery-for-the-samsung-galaxy-s4-i9500-i9505/

But i dont have a i9500, i have the canadian model, the i337m

Can i still flash the stock recovery image from an i9500? or will i brick something.

also not understanding why i have to do any of this when it worked last time and nothing has changed....maybe because its jumping from 4.3 to 4.4 ... i dunno..

Any advice appreciated, id love to get this OTA. I just dont want roms anymore, only stock. but i want to stay up to date with my android version, and that is becoming tough for me.

thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sulaimanshariff:
Thats exactly because you're upgrading from 4.3 to kk and yeah bootloaders differ probably that's the reason recovery and roms should be flashed if they are specifically for your model i9300 cabt have a rom which is for i9505 it bricks your phone same with recovery and yeah better make a clean flash via odin!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luke318is:
I guess i want to know what to do now. How do i get the Ota? How do i get stock recovery back
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
These are basic questions that have been anwsered 1000 times already. There is a search button you know.

First of all this is not the i1337m forum.

Second flashing stuff on your phone that is not for you phone is the dumbest thing to do. You should know that before you start messing with your phone.

Go to your forum and use the search button.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Garen21:
I was running Goldeneye 3x for a few weeks, and just last night, i started to get a few random reboots. I thought nothing of it, then this morning, my phone doesn't turn on. I thought okay dead battery, put it to charge, but nope, no led, no response from the phone. There is no button combination that gives me a response. The only thing that gives me a response is taking the battery out, putting it back in. It gives the Samsung logo with the unlocked lock symbol and "custom" under it, and after about 2 seconds, it goes dead again. Maybe its a dead battery? What are my options? What should I look into?

Thanks

edit: got a new battery from fry's today, no difference, still won't turn on and still getting the same response from the phone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] guut13:
Since you can't get into safestrap, will it allow you to reboot into download mode? You could try ODIN back to stock?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Garen21:

Could it be a broken power button (the internal button not the outside one)? or a messed up usb port? A different battery gave the same results as my original battery
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sofia-captivate:
Got the sony z2 right now is it worth it to switch to G3? All I care for is instagram, camera, battery life that's it. Thanks please share
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tectas:
If it's just about that, stick with the z2, the camera of the g3 is pretty nice, but the one of the z2 is as well, they just have different strong and weak points there. Battery life is better on the z2, out of the box, i guess, because the qhd display at the g3 draws more juice, but, well, except if you are willing to swap batteries, than the point goes to the g3.

If you're happy with the z2, stick with it, if not, swap it, but be aware, it's not an upgrade, but a switch, both phones are decent and have their up and downsides.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigBSES:
I switched from the Z2 to the G3.

The camera works a lot faster, and shots sharper photos.

About the battery endurance, I can´t talk lot about, because my G3 is toooo new.

But actually it seems to be better.

The Display is blazing sharp and amazing!

No competition for the G3....
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toncij:
That is impossible.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigBSES:
Your argument seems nearly legit...

But maybe its a little bit squishy.....

My g3 holds nearly two and a half day.

My z2 max 2 days. so lg does something better with energy handling.

And I use exactly the same apps on both phones. nothing except the phones is different
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jiyeon90:
Camera is slightly better on the z2, when it comes to battery you get 1 day + 4-5h SOT on the G3 while on the Z2 you get 1 day + 5-6.5h SOT, I'd say stay with the Z2
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seifer1975:
Did the switch and never regretted. g3 is so much better.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheetah2k:
I gave up on the Z2. I was on my 4th phone (all with defects) and the IPS lcd screen was pretty poor IMO.

The G3 is a brilliant phone, albeit there is probably more lag than the Z2, but I forgive it because the screen is way better, and the cam takes instant pics which are way better in low light.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickey878:
i switched from a Z2 and in my opinion both phones are super great!! however few things i didn't like about the Z2 was that feeling that ill drop it and break the glass on either side. This fear was always present in my mind when handling the phone.

On the brighter side, the battery of the Z2 was amazing hands down. I am not talking about the tests posted on various websites etc, this is only MY opinion. I am a heavy user and play a lot of games on the phone, constantly checking for messages, FB, pulse etc. The Z2 would last me easily a day with some juice left.

For the G3, the screen is superb and the size of the phone ratio to the screen is a plus. The phone doesnt feel cheap and in my opinion is less slippery than the Z2. In other advantages i think removable battery is always a plus IF you keep a spare on you. I have used the phone for 4 days now and i must say the battery didnt impress me. Its just OK nothing more ill add to that.

Both phones are good imo, if you want to have a future proof phone then i guess G3 is a safer bet specially the 855 with 32gb and 3GB ram keeps you at par with the current offerings.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoundsChecking:
Had a Z2, and could never eek out more than 5 hours of SOT. I can easily grind out 5.5-6 and over doing the same things on the G3. It's a pretty fantastic phone. I'm not quite sure, but I believe it still has GRAM that the G2 had, and that helps it with battery life.

I'm a super heavy user, and the Z2 just didn't cut it for me.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sofia-captivate:
Where is your G3 from if you don't mind me asking? Like tmobile? Or unlock international version? Thanks
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoundsChecking:
I have an AT&T D850. It's white (I'm not sure, but the white ones seem to have less problems. Just a conspiracy ?)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beards:
Had the Z2 and loved so many things on the phone which made the switch to the G3 difficult at first.

Z2

Pros:

Battery

Waterproof

Dedicated Camera Button

Cons:

Awkward to hold

All glass looks nice but drop the phone at your peril.

Awkward SIM Card Slot.

No replaceable battery

G3

Pros:

Screen oh that screen

Feels great to hold in the hand

Unique software configuration ~ Design your own button layout, other custom changes and Easy Home that actually works.

Brilliant Auto camera ~ Never thought I would be happy using an Auto setting.

Superb use of Quick Circle implementation.

Cons:

Camera software has no manual controls, you have to download and use additional software.

I'm sure I could find many other reasons to like both phones but whilst great tools are a winning factor it's how the device feels in the hand which will always be your first and last impression. Here the G3 wins absolutely hands down against the Z2.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enddo:
I ended up ordering a Black one from Amazon and received a White one. With all the people having issues with shutdowns, overheating, etc. I just kept the White one since it's performing beautifully.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AhsanU:
Z2 has issues with sound quality and voice quality. If you truly only care for the things you've listed then stick to the Z2. But things such as weight, voice quality, etc. may matter later on, so you'll never know.

I'm coming from a Z1. Quite possibly the most aesthetically pleasing phone but was paired with horrible software support and issues that could not be easily fixed because of rooting issues.

Impossibru!

Please check attached picture? SIM free run, 60% brightness and full WiFi.

The 7 hour picture is from video streaming and gaming plus social networks...

I don't understand how you get hours similar to G3? You probably run a very bad signal on you networks and that drains your devices...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htc fan89:
No point of switching from z2. It has everything good camera good battery only resolution and laser focusing is what g3 has over z2. Not a big deal
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 903tex:
Yes I ended up with the white one as well. I've never had any restarts or any problems out of the phone. Everything works great!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F4M0U569:
Do you really think it is not worth it? Here are the reasons why you should upgrade. Let me break it down for you

-true hd lcd 144x2560 5'5inch 2.5k display

-32gb internal and 3gb of ram

-1 watt speaker

-removeable battery

-2.5ghz

-ir blaster

-better battery

-better camera

-and probably more things that I forgot

[Asus Transformer TF700] ikkeT:
Should the CM11 (crombi-kk) recognize the USB/sd filesystems (by partition type?) by default? I have a usb device with ext4 and fat32 partitions. The android does notice the device is plugged in, but doesn't mount them. I can do it manually from command line, but it seems copying files from partitions get stalled if device sleeps. Perhaps file managers fail to take some wake lock if the fs is not mounted by the system.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikereidis:
Yes, I've searched... spent 2 hours yesterday reading, LOL.

Are there easy to flash ZIPs for Stock and GPE for Falcon/xt1032 GSM ? (Canada).

I usually run CM11 nightlies, but I want to easily test stock (4.4.4 preferred now) and GPE.

BL is unlocked. I want to use custom recovery to flash. I don't want to deal with Windows, mfastboot, etc. If I must run stuff from PC I prefer Linux.

On some phones this is easy and normal. On others, not possible.

I read threads about converting to stock or GPE, but the procedures are lengthy and risk boot loops and brickage that really ruins my day. If it's a pain I'll be tempted to just stay on CM and tell users of my apps I can't support stock.

Nobody has made flashable ZIPs and/or it's not possible ?

Thanks !
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
Using Fastboot to flash a stock firmware image is not a lengthy process and often the only (and easiest) way to solve certain issues. Fastboot can be used with Linux. It's really worth taking the time to learn.

Enable USB Debugging on Phone.

Download Firmware image.

Drop fastboot.exe (fastboot.sh) into folder (if not already present.)

Run batch file.​
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikereidis:
Thanks ! :)

Last I recall there was a special fastboot binary for Moto G: mfastboot. I think I found a Linux version after searching; not sure it still works though.

[Samsung Gear 2] gardiol:
Hi all!

i am posting here because it seems that the Neo specific forums are not very populated...

anyway i got my new Gear2 Neo preloaded with Tizen last week and i immediately paired to my Note3 (latest X-Note custom rom) and started fiddling with it right away.

First thing i wanted to understand is battery life, so i did some experiments i want to share with you.

First of all, my Gear2 Neo has the latest available firmware upgrades, the Gear Manager is up2date and i have installed only three (free) apps from the store: calculator, calendar and watch styler, which i use normally to show my custom built all black background with bright hands watchface.

I set the screen timeout to the minimum value, i keep notifications ON for everything base plus whatsapp wechat skype and a couple of other apps (like filemanager).

So far my usage has been more or less: receive a few calls a day (5 minutes max of audio trough the watch, the rest trough the phone),

About 20/40 notifications (sms, calendar, sms, whatspp and similars).

Watch off charge at 7:00AM, breakfast, cycle to office, then busy day until evening back at home, some evening activities, then end-of-day around 23:00 / midnight, when i would recheck the watch battery.

At first i got using about 60-70% of the battery, which seemed frankly NOT acceptable, because it means i had to recharge it Every. Single. Night, which rules out carriying around if i stay away for a weekend, since i fear to lose the small charge adapter.... i was quite pissed off, but determined to understand if better can be achieved.

I noticed the screen would turn on very very often, specially while moving my arm from mouse to keyboard (i keep the mouse on my left and use with same watch arm)... so i stopped wearing it when at my work desk... BANG, battery life went up and i got to sleep time with almost 70% CHARGE AVAILABLE?? So, a 30% usage drop, compared to a 60-70% of the previous days???

Well, i disable the turn screen on when lifting arm option, and now i am at 8% usage discharge every day! So after three FULL days of usage i am down at 70% charge available!!! Considering some 1% of drop during nighttime (i don't switch it off), i am positive i can reach well up to 7 or maybe 8 days WITHOUT a charge! Now, this is much better indeed. Yes having to press the button every time i want to see the time is not the best, but afterall i didn't got it for wearing a watch, but to get a much more practical integration with the phone... and i was often turning on the phone to check the time anyway....

What i still clearly note is a battery drain on my Note3... having the watch connected all the time takes a toll on the otherwise great Note3. Maybe not too much, but very noticeable anyway....

YMMV, but i wanted to share this with you...
[Samsung Gear 2] Gear2Guy:
i agree that disabling the G sensor on the watch will give you better battery life, but is it really that big a deal? dont you have to charge your Note 3 daily anyway? if i dont use my S5 i dont have to daily charge it, otherwise it just gets plugged in when i sleep at night, along with the watch.

also, the gear charges so fast! ive seen it go from 50% to 100% in like an hour, so its not like im really "down" the watch for very long when it starts to crap out.

ive gotten down to 50% battery with very heavy usage in 1 day; so far im impressed and pleased with the watches capability all around :)
[Samsung Gear 2] rorijam:

I was under the impression that once you are connected to a 3G/UMTS network, you can be online and make phone calls at the same time?

I just tried it but my TyTN told me to end the phone call first before connecting. I have the U on top and my speed test (dslreports) indicated a 662kbit/s rate. Any comments?

I believe I have one of the older 3G SIM card. Initially, I didn't think I even had a 3G SIM card and had some rep send me one of the new ones (with the flaming 3G on it). However, since my TyTN showed the U and had pretty decent download speeds, I assumed it would be 3G capable.
