Where did you get this information re 50%?

When mine passes 50% it continues to quick charge according to the battery stats I have obtained on my device.

I imported a number of the Incipio car chargers to the UK. They are excellent but not cheap!

Wait for 30 seconds and then shutdown your phone

Power On phone and you have gps on steroids

I don't want to try the other solution (install ported S5 stock rom) because I think I'll loose know 0x00 status and I'll become 0x01...

Does anybody know what can I do to have working GPS?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geeks Empire:
Info

You need fresh firmware to check if this is software issue or hardware

download from sammobile.com/firmware and flash by Odin

if problem remains with flashing same region firmware then try another region

after that if still gps problem remains u should take it to service center to check its gps sensor

:good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dabezt:
I've tested 2 or 3 stock roms (PHE - Spain, and BTU - Uk) And it still doesn't works.

GPS sensor could not be because GPS TEST (google play apk) locates 22/23 satellites in few seconds, but it doesn't gets LINK to anyone...

¿? Please help! :)

Thanks. Regards.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vndnguyen:
Do you know A-GPS? This feature requires Internet connection to work.

Try to turn on Internet connection (3G or WiFi) while the GPS is fixing the location.

This will speed up the fixing process, especially when you've moved to a new location.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] blkhrt13:
Her guys, I'm running carbon ROM on my m8, and I noticed it has the knock on feature like the lg phones. However, whenever I pull my phone out of my pocket, or even sometimes just move it a certain way, the screen lights up and it's really annoying. Is anyone else experiencing this on carbon or any other android ROM?
[Galaxy S III General] ludviktom:
I would like to share with you my experiment.

I'm really enjoying Samsung Galaxy S3 with Kitkat ROM and I'm really glad that developers from XDA forum keep this phone alive. Thank you all!

So I'm satisfied with inside of the phone, but I was not satisfied with the look of the phone. Especially plastic silver middle frame (bezel around the phone), which looks like metal (but really ONLY looks), turns me crazy, because silver painting starts to peel off. So I get idea to take all the paintings away. And here is the result :)

I just use sandpaper P600, paper tape for covering display glass and ethanol for final cleaning. I removed on/off button, volume buttons and battery cover and start to sanding it with sandpaper. It is important to be careful and don't be in a hurry. I recommend you to move with sandpaper along the phone because of the texture on the middle frame.

I hope that you like the result :)
[Galaxy S III General] prothinks:
I made that to my pebble blue s3, I scrapped it all with my nails, it was entertaining while I could.

Now that I have a white one i won't doubt, i'll do it when it start to peel, I like that panda looks in white/black. It could be even better with a black home button!!

also My phone come with FireOS 3.6.8 and downgrading is not working out

I get numorious problem's / errors, number one being the phone will not register with Amazon and the wifi is very weak and the app drawer is mostly empty. I'm sideloading the 3.6.2 OS Now,

Well I got everything now but the phone will not register with Amazon with Data or Wifi

I guess I'll have to call them, I'll also have to put the last version FireOS from their site back on the phone 3.5.2

easier way is to upload build.prop file (you can use any File Explorer to get it)

With build.prop file we're able to download 3.6.8 firmware from amazons server!

PLEASE: befor

anyone

downgrade grab that file!

have file now - but firmware is not available :/ so please stay away from downgrade 3.6.8

ok i took a look at my 3.5 Firmware File which one i use for my FirePhone with root (File from 10.10.2014) and it have 'ddaca0bf052687995b1f491935024d51', too.

that means that md5 hash in the first post is wrong.

[Amazon Fire Phone] amethystAndrew:
Have you had any luck with a response from Amazon? I flashed back before the warning about going back was thrown out to everyone, so I've currently got a Fire Phone sitting here with 3.6.6 (anything 3.6+ seems to function) that won't register with Amazon. Unfortunately, I can't even get Google Play to work on this software version, so it's sitting here appless aside from anything I sideload, which isn't especially efficient. My goal was to give this to my fiancé as a Christmas gift (she's pretty thoroughly entrenched in the Amazon ecosystem), but it won't be particularly useful in its current state, obviously.

I'd honestly consider buying another phone and keep this around for tinkering if the $199 price tag was still around, but the $229 isn't worth it in my book if Amazon ever gets around to releasing the 3.6.8 .bin file. I honestly don't see why they haven't released it unless they're considering dropping support for the phone entirely..
[Amazon Fire Phone] najoor:
Amazon customer service sent me a replacement at no charge. I'm now returning the broken one. As far as the firmware is concerned they said 3.6.8 is not publicly available. If you hurry up you may be able to get your replacement before Christmas.

How are you not returning the broken one?

Looks like Sprint model supports the most networks. I think TDD-LTE will be useful as Clearwire network is converted from WiMax. Also a fair chance it will come unlocked like other recent Galaxies (so I've heard)

Sprint - SM-N910P : TDD-LTE + FDD-LTE + WCDMA + CDMA + GSM

ATT - SM-N910A : FDD-LTE + WCDMA + GSM

US.Cellular - SM-N910R4 : FDD-LTE + CDMA

Verizon - SM-N910V : FDD-LTE + WCDMA + CDMA + GSM

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] oldblue910:
Nope. Verizon won't allow Sprint Note 4s on their network because their IMEI numbers aren't in Verizon's database. If you want to use a Note 4 on Verizon, you'll have to use a Verizon variant. The end.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Deleted member 5843740:
I went into my local AT&T store and they gave me a nano-sim card.

my current device is a LG G3 which I plan to return once the Xperia is activated. The G3 uses a micro-sim.

how can I set this up to work properly so there are no IMEI duplicate/blacklisting issues.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] cschmitt:
This thread discusses AT&T LTE and IMEIs: AT&T APN Settings for LTE
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Crewville96:
Tell them the situation, use same imei as g3. Profit.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Deleted member 5843740:
right thats the easy part. what im afraid of is once i return the G3, the imei from it will be tagged on my acct with AT&T. if that phone gets activated again, whether it's resold or not, the imei will show its on multiple devices and that could cause problems.

any ideas? or is that not how it works...
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] sillieidiot:
i don't think it will be a problem. they will know the IMEI of the phone you are currently using the moment you turn it on and connect to a cell tower. so the IMEI on the account will be replaced with your current phone. If they dont' have that phone in their database, it will show up as unknown or whatever the hell their database claims it is.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Deleted member 5843740:
do they have dummy IMEI's they can assign as well?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] cschmitt:
Not sure, I've read that sometimes they will just pull the IMEI from a display phone in the store.

I gave them the IMEI from an LTE phone that is under contract with AT&T on a separate business account, it wasn't an issue at all.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] taze:
no they dont have dummies or generics and they cannot override the data provisioning determined by your IMEI. just activate your new sim, make no mention of your new phone. if you sell your device to another att subscriber it should not make any difference.

see my post:

I got two Z3C for both myself and my wife. When I got them activated the sales rep used the exact same IMEI number from an HTC One m8. Same IMEI number two different phones. Neither my wife nor I have had problems.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] CollinsJ:
Easiest way? Talk to the AT&T rep in the store, tell them it is a imported phone and they will need to leave the IMEI number as the current one. Program in the APN settings and done. AT&T does not do any blacklisting or care how many devices have the same IMEI number in their system, it just requires that a valid one for LTE be set for an active device.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Messerschmitt262:
So until now i haven't really used much google maps, since the battery would drain very fast.

Now I bought a car charger so I thought I could basically always use google maps as a GPS and finally be able to take the best routes.

However, I'm noticing that the phone gets very hot when the GPS is on. You can feel it at touch, and the battery goes upwards to 40c. I'm mostly concerned of the battery life as the hotter the battery gets, the less lifespan, and with Nexus 4 not having a swappable battery, this can be bad.

I thought it might be the charger, but charging the phone without google maps running, the temp won't go above 30c. Using google maps navigation, it gets close to 40c without the charger so it's a GPS...

Now, I tried to use the network (battery savings option) but that would not track what so ever, so I'm forced to leave the phone GPS on.

Any suggestions? Still planning to keep this phone for at least several more years, and the high battery temperature is of concern.

Using the vanilla android 4.4.4
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigDig:
This is not high battery temperature! It's normal, just keep using it and don't worry about it!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Messerschmitt262:
Well, while operating temperature might be just within limit (I understood 45º should be the upper limit), 40ºc charging does degrade the battery (and since the GPS would drain my battery in just over an hour, I am forced to use the car charger for longer trips).

Unfortunately I guess I don't have many options, other than try to reduce the GPS usage, maybe for longer stretches of road.

A - When you are on the tri-color screen check the number after SPL-X.XX
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] fone_fanatic:
you need to go into bootloader mode. Search for it, or it could be in the WiKi. I think you hold the OK button and the Power button and soft reset it with the stylus.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] URPREY:
