[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholaschum:
OnePlus One. I'm rooting for it.

Note 3 compared to OPO is like night and day....I converted most of my Note 3 friends to get the OPO and they never looked back. Only thing I miss is the AMOLED screen, and that's all. It's been sitting in my drawer fully rooted, custom ROM'd, custom kernel'd, recovery and all 0x0, every Note 3 user's dream, currently locked up in a box with 0% battery since I don't use it as a daily driver anymore - It's that good.

AOSP development on the OPO is Legendary and CM is backing every firmware update released with newer and better features. Camera is far more superior and no infamous Samsung camera focus lag time.

Try the OPO. It's called the 2014 Flagship Killer for a reason, and the price being so low, might as well get 2 OPOs instead of 1 N3.

@op: you asked on the Note 3 forum, so most people will say their phone is still a beast and other phones are not worth it. If money isn't an issue, absolutely go for the note 4. It's the newer device, it's more future proof, there is absolutely no logical argument not to get it in favor of the note 3 (except finances, like I said).
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N1NJATH3ORY:
Wait for the note 4 the future is fast becoming qhd **** 1080p trust me you will not regret getting the note 4 :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjneil.81:
The note 3 is the first phone I've ever owned that I don't feel like upgrading for a newer model. To date I have aways bought a new phone every year regardless. But if you have the money the note 4 looks really nice with the new screen and better build quality. The thing with the note series is that the phone will remain current for 2 years or so after release.

You better charge it to around 50% and then put it in the drawer, long time with depleted battery will kill it

I flashed the international nandroid backup in my phone a5dug and rooted it. But sometimes it shutdown itself, and after reboot, the battery always shows 100 until power off. i don't konw why
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vbrsekhar:
May be the battery stats got corrupted after you install the nandroid backup. May be a factory reset from the security settings rather than the from the cwm recovery, might fix the issues. I had the similar problem once and I managed to fix it by that way. All the best.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dandv:
Back in March, Replicant developers revealed a backdoor in the Samsung Galaxy application processor that lets the modem perform I/O operations on the device's storage.

(There was one security researcher who claimed on Ars Technica there was no evidence that the backdoor was used; Replicant's developers have responded to that here and here.)

Anyway, any progress on Galaxy S5 ROMs that use Replicant's replacement library, which won't collaborate with the backdoor, whether it's been used or not?

Security holes like this effect the community as a whole. I have no doubt this an intentional flaw brought to us all by the

Auroragold

mission. Whats it going to take for this type of lunacy to stop, a figurehead's child's phone getting hacked by a malicious actor, or terrorist? Because it's only a matter of time before that exact threat is a damning reality, & Samsung will be left holding the bag. This flaw has been an open wound for me ever since I first read Paul Kocialkowski's report in February. The issue has been burred for way too long; on behalf of devs, users, people who don't want to know, and the ones that just wont ever get it, I demand a full community based effort to KILL THIS BUG. This is why were all here right? On XDA, we help one and other learn, as well as help ourselves to use our personal devices better, and soon, safer. But if we are not making a strong enough effort to get what we require as basic device security, why use one at all?

Just today... I noticed that the vibrate on my dopod 818 pro becomes much weaker than it usually does. no Idea what's wrong.

Is it a common hardware defect?

I'm servicing it along with the broken rear speaker after new year. and it's gonna take a really long time too. last I asked it's gonna take the service center in indo a month just to replace the broken rear speaker. what could be so difficult in replacing a rear speaker. I really doubt it it would take a whole month to replace a broken speaker.

my 6365 had a broken speaker, it was only in the service center for 2 days.

Now that's service.

I just might sell off my dopod for a 6828, even tho I heard some bad reviews, at least it's after sales is top notch.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznspdrmn:
My phone is stuck on a loop after I tried fixing it. I tried installing Viper 6.2 on my m7 and it didn't work with an error of 7 or something and since I was coming from a different Rom I chose to wipe the data and start over. So now I have no Rom on my phone, no problem. I rebooted and tried to get into recovery again but then something weird happened where it would show the CW recovery logo and than skip to the Google logo like it was trying to boot up (no letters at top of screen). I tried installing a different recovery image but same thing it would show Teamwin logo and than cycle to the Google logo without letters at the top like it was trying to boot up and will go in a loop until I turn it off or go into the white bootloader menu. Also tried a factory reset from the white menu which did nothing. Please Help!

Try this procedure from alray:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznspdrmn:
Yeah but the problem is I can't get to the recovery image anymore. the command says device not found and when trying to get to the recovery image it doesn't work.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznspdrmn:
ok when I do that it does nothing. The only menu I can get to on my phone is the bootloader one. If I choose recovery it'll get stuck in a loop and if I choose factory reset from the bootloader menu it'll get stuck in a loop. I think I need a way to factory reset the phone to any rom to get out of the loop. Right now I think the phone has a full recovery image on it but not a rom and that is somehow messing it up?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
If in setting USB Debugging is not enabled and there is an OS ADB will not work. It will work in Recovery.

If you have the stock firmware, you could flash it (if you are s-on, then you will need to relock your bootloader)

Then you would need to unlock your bootloader and flash a new recovery

ADB Push or sideload you rom while in recovery

Or

Flash a new recovery

ADB push or sideload your rom while in recovery
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznspdrmn:
I've tried flashing a new recovery even changing the versions and types of recovery images. It still loops

Link to video of loop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efoXC-w45TA&list=UUXhWO2R4Ll4NrhM7M91T2sw

Fixed the issue by installing a RUU zip and then installing a custom rom.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
It looks like your have an OS 3.09.401.1. I found a stock, non-rooted odex version.zip. This may wipe all of your personal data off of the phone. If fastboot is working, you should be able to flash it in FASTBOOT USB.

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip name_of_rom.zip
fastboot flash zip name_of_rom.zip
fastboot reboot

You have to run the flash command twice, the first time prepares the firmware/rom to accept the changes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] YayItsDave:
Hello, Hope i can get assistance here as Sprint, and Freedompop are of no help. I bought a S3 off ebay going on a month ago and since i am normally around WIFI all the time and i do see a Tower Status with 4/5 bars i never paid it any mind. I recently went off exploring with my phone and i noticed i only got 3G signal when i got home i also noticed i only got a 3G signal so i checked sprints website and it says i should be falling over with LTE. So i assumed it was because i had a custom rom so i went back to stock(ND8). Updated my Profile and PRL as per Freedompops suggestions did the MSL reset and factory resets used every ##code i could come up with forced my phone in LTE only mode ran some APN fixes none of that worked. I am sure Freedompop gave up they last replied on the 11th. based on what i Google some people had this fix by having sprint update the ICCID i sent them a SS of all the information on my Status screen and they said they updated the ICCID to what was shown there. However after all this i am still NOT getting LTE mind you after i reset my phone when its doing the intial setup or randomly after i power on my phone i get an error "Unable to establish a wireless data connection" :LTE: ESM - x EMM - 8 I do have the sprint connection optimizer turned off. so could someone give me more suggestions and hopefully a solution.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Merudo:
Maybe you don't have a good 4G at home, so that's why you can't activate 4G? Try standing close to a window while you attempt to activate. Also, you could try to download a different stock (I activate just fine with the Deodexed rom there http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2741413)

You can also attempt to flash the modem again.

If you can't get 4G on a freshly installed stock rom, then I'm afraid there is not much hope for you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] YayItsDave:
That's the stock Rom I used deoxed one right now I'm on aosp tribute. How do I flash modems. I have tried around 10 miles of my house only places I travel but sprints map says my entire Philadelphia area has spark and lte .
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Merudo:
The S3 doesn't support Spark - I believe it only can connect at the 1900 MHz frequency.

The safest way to flash the modem is to do a full Odin reinstall of the stock rom. You can get the proper file here and here.

A stand alone ND8 modem used to be available here, but got taken down after multiple reports of bricking. I have a copy of it online if you want it; message me and I'll send you a link.

and had the same error
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Merudo:
I have no idea what is wrong... I suggest you create another thread about this.

The only explanation I can think of is that you USB cable might have a problem (the S3 is known to be difficult with cables) . Maybe use a different USB port even.

Also make sure you run Odin as administrator, and have all the proper drivers installed. Also check the version of Odin (I use 3.09, check page 8).

I must say I know every little about Odin, I only used it two or three times
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Aside from your Odin issues now have you previously gone into settings to make sure you have the lte turned on?

You have to go into mobile network, then make sure the CDMA/lte is checked off on not just CDMA

Have a great day!

Yup cdma\lte is enabled I get 0 bars than 5 bars no icon then I get 3g signal. When I force lte on within hidden menu I get 0 bars the esm 8 error more frequent.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] YayItsDave:
I am aware of that issue and tried to receive assistance on sprint forums however since i have a MVNO (Freedompop) i have to get my assistance through them. As the phone was bought on ebay and was refurbished i have no idea if the on board SIM card was replaced but it is seeming like something is up with my ICCID. I did contact my MVNO and sent them a screenshot of my device status settings asking them to update the ICCID and they assured me they updated them on there end. I don't know if there is some long delay when their settings are updated or if they are able to update what sprint sees.

I am really starting to lose hope as my MVNO provider told me to goto a sprint store for a new sim card but i don't think they can since its an embedded card.

Would the sprint store be able to access my information since from my understanding im not the customer freedompop is

Hi,

Since Samsung is not interested in open Gear Fit data to non-samsung device, even after install apks from Samsung device, I still cannot sync or store my fitness history on my nexus 5. So, I'm not talking about sideload apk to non-Samsung device here.

Gear Fit is just a bluetooth device, if we can understand the communication protocol between Samsung app and Gear Fit, we can create our own fitness app, and sync the data to anywhere we like, such as Dropbox or Google Drive. And maybe we can utilize the protocol to do something further than original Samsung apps. And it will also be possible to connect the latest Google Fit service.

Is there anyone hacking this Gear Fit device?
[Samsung Gear Fit] pRo_lama:
Gear Fit is not interesting device for devs and nobody is working on this device, because at the first place Gear Fit has only RealTime-OS which in not Android. And you can't do very much with it.

If you want to make app just read thread about Gear Fit SDK. ;)

[Samsung Gear Fit] Teg Miles:
I don't know if the same solution of gear fit2 fits to gear fit, but is extremely simple to connect the gear fit2 to a Non-Samsung phone.

You must download APK from Google Play (there are some service around) and install them:

- Samsung Gear

- Samsung Gear Fit2 Plugin

5 minutes and you have the same of a Samsung Phone.

It works like a charm on my Asus Zenfone 2.

Hi, everyone. I am notMauriceVega. And, I need some guidance on this particular journey I'm about to take. I've search the interwebs, and here on XDA for information on this device, and maybe possible ports for it. But, its very slim picking. Either its a little of something, or nothing at all.I know little about porting over devices, and tinkering with Roms already.

But, for this device I'm totally lost. Just as many I'm used of the main stream devices. Which already had developers who was creating for those. And, I was hoping someone who maybe a little more experience could give me that kickstart on this device. Any help is apperiated on this device.

ODIN is showing successful flashing , but when i am restarting its always going in download mode with error message "couldn't do normal boot" . In download mode there is a line "QUALOCM SECUREBOOT : ENABLE". I doubt this is beacuse of locked bootloader.

I want to know is it really beacuse of locked bootloader?

I downloaded kernel for my phone model from samsung official website mentioned below and built in same way they have given instruction, so i ahve less doubt on custom zImage.

As far as I'm aware most Samsung devices if not all have unlocked bootloaders, as for a soloution I haven't seen anything really but some say you need to re-flash stock then try from scrath or make a backup after reflashing stock and a custom recovery then format and restore to get it working.
