hahaha i guess my title was misleading as i have had N3 since release date and so i just left with what i walked in with. i am sure something will happen to make me switch at some point :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mugello21:
with the resale value of the note 3 I dont see why not if you have the upgrade available and are not in the situation of losing unlimited.

I personally love the fingerprint scanner, i thought at first it would be a gay gimmick thing and not work how I use them on laptops but its everything I wanted. I use a complex pattern normally to unlock my phone so being able to easily do the fingerprint works wonders for me. I also tend to like new ish and be with the curve (because you can never be ahead in the existing electronics industry)

just my . 02
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] rushless:
Very true on the N5 and a whole year to enjoy the N4. Point was relative to the N3 and early upgrade expense.

64bit makes a HUGE difference without app rewrites for it. Look at the cpu power of the 5433 and the A7 and A8. It makes a huge computational difference.

That said, the only practical benefit is for game emulators for me, since they are 99% cpu driven.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] froggystyle66:
Ah. Haven't really tried game emulators. I really only play cross me color. Thanks for the info!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] fletch33:
i am in the opposite court and understand what you are saying for your needs. i remember when i use to buy new laptops every year because they just kept getting faster and i could feel the difference with each new purchase. that changed a few years ago when suddenly every upper level machine met my needs and the new ones although faster on specs wouldnt allow me to see anything new and exciting since i wouldnt be pushing them to see it.

phones like N3 have in that perspective meet my needs already and now i look for new pieces of tech like the stylus the Note series has or its IR blaster, great phablet specific features, and interaction with the rest of my Samsung electronics.

i dont know what will make me jump to a new phone these days because they havent announced what it is yet. the camera i know is better and would be nice but i just didnt see a "need" today.

i appreciate the respectful replies to this thread and as mentioned above i could sure be convinced to buy it sooner than later.

thanks

I have a TYTN.

If I want to download emails automaticaly with a POP acount it is possible to set the period for checking emails between 1 to 60 min.

What if I want ot set the period to mor than 60 min ? (for example only 3 x per day)

This would help me to save battery power (because If you set to periodical checking the networkconnection does not disconnect automaticaly. You can disconnect only manualy).

I measured 25 % more battery drain if I am permanet online in the UMTS network.

If I am permanet online I have this nerving bug to get no phonecall when bluetooth is switched on too.

Anyone knowes a trick how to set up?

Please follow my articles - I've also published a solution to this in my article "The secrets of being notified of new, incoming E-mail messages on the Pocket PC" (see the section "The problem of staying-on connection" at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=915&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 ):

GB-SOFT Tweak will be your friend; go and read http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=611&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] andreasfuntastic:
thank you,Menneisyys, for your answer. Of course I already read your (very interesting and usefull) articles and I know the program GB-softtweak already too.

My question is not how to disconnect network after each mailchecking.

I am searching for a programm or a reg.tweak to set the period of checking mails automaticaly to more than 60 min. I prefere a value of 8 hours, thats enough for me. (this saves battery, less downloadvolume, and no disturbing mail notifications at night while sleeping between 23 to 7 h)

So many settings can be changed in the registry, why not this value too?

Maybe someone knows?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Menneisyys:
I haven't checked this myself, but: most Messaging-related stuff is either stored as a binary flag (in large chunks of binary values) or in WindowsCE databases. I think in this case the latter is the case.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] andreasfuntastic:
With other words, does this mean that I can not change? (I dont know how to fiddle around in the database).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] andreasfuntastic:
Anyone with a solution?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] tytnguy:
I have built a custom program to check emails based on the schedule you built.

I do not know if that's what you are asking.. Please check under my signature for link 'rk-OSR'

:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] andreasfuntastic:
thanks for your answer!

before trying I would like to know:

I still use WM5

1) can I set the period for acess to a mailserver as I like? (multiple settings possible?), for example during day every 1 h, at night nothing?

2) I have manny emailacounts. Can I set for each a different period?

3) I dont use wifi. Can I use Umts connection? ( can I set your program use the 'standard internet connection' too? I mean the one which I normaly use for browsing with IE)

4) will the device wake up from standby when checking mailserver (of cours I guess it will wake up when a mail arrives because you mentioned that your programm is notificaton based)

I know, many questions.

thanks in advance
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] tytnguy:
First of all, rk-OSR just performs email account send receive at specified time. Not from the exchange server.

All your email accounts will be available for sync using rk-OSR

1)Sync schedules you have to manually setup each... You can not set up eg for every 1 hr OR sync from 10Am to 5pm. You need to configure each sync

2)Number of mail account does not matter, but you can not specify which account to sync when. All choosen accounts are synced up

3)It will work on wifi or gprs/edge/3g etc

4)You can set up either way. Wake up or not to wake up.

But why don't you install the app and see if satisfies your requirements.

:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] juiceppc:
I hated this on WM5. However on Smartphone you could always have it check once a day not just from 1-60 mins. Gladly WM6 Pro fixes all this. You can have it check once a day and also have it send emails when you click "send". You still can't set times for your pop 3's to auto check but once a day is better than every 60 mins.

WM6 Black on the Tytn is solid.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] andreasfuntastic:
Thank you juiceppc!

now I upgraded to WM6 too (and I am glad I did it)

I set to check mail once a day (I use a pop3 account) and it is working well.

Can somebody tell me how to find out at which time such dayly mailcheck happens?

Is it possible to set the exaxt time for a dayly mailcheck ?

(for example: check mail every day at 12.00 h)

[Sony Xperia M2] dotzi75:
Here you go!

Your phone must be rooted. If CWM recovery is installed, flash the zip in recovery.

Without recovery, extract zip and copy settings.apk to system/app with the right permissions rw-r--r--

After this, reboot the phone. Done.

I don't have tried this on my phone, please tell me if it works!

Don't forget to make a backup of original settings.apk!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] oneandroidnut:
i should maybe try since i havent activated mine yet

ive been using it for 5 hours now with no issue. it did heat up real good optimizing though

I have ART on my S5, and it's been running great. I had to remove couple of games, though.

The general consensus is to hold off on it until lollipop, but I will probably try it at some point anyway.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jzarfos:

Great to hear, giving it a whirl now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Poloasis:
Lots of peeps reporting keeps optimize apps on every reboot, I included. Had to go back to Dalvic.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mutelight:
Yeah, I ran into the same thing. The interesting thing is that on first reboot it had to optimize some 250 apps, I did a restart to see if it would do the same, this time it is optimizing again but only 87.

I almost never reboot my phone so I will try it out for a couple days, see if there is any battery gains or losses.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Arie McD:
So far, I have seen no benefit. I do hate that most every time I restart the phone, it seems to optimize the same 25 files increasing the boot time. I have switched back to Dalvik for until specific and substantial advantages are verified and posted. If miliseconds reduction in UI response are the only benefit, I am not in that big of a hurry. :)

Hope this helps.

Only thing I noticed is that S health crashes now that ART is enabled. Which I normally wouldn't care about, except I'm one of the few that likes the heart rate feature. -___-

Just use adb to push a ROM to internal storage. Or adb sideload.

I can't understand why folks keep skipping the step of making a nandroid before flashing a ROM. This just takes a couple minutes and should be considered

mandatory

before doing any mods (and now you see why). Either that, or have a known good ROM on the internal storage. I never go without one or the other.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GabrielOspina:
still doesn't do anything
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Do you have adb/fastboot setup (if you don't, you should)? If so, any response when you type in command prompt: adb devices

My guess is that you might have a basic USB connectivity problem (usually on the PC side) on top of your phone issues.

Uninstall HTC Sync and all HTC drivers.

Re-Install HTC Sync and/or drivers.

Try connecting again.

If it doesn't work, uninstall HTC Sync and HTC drivers again. Connect the phone, when the PC prompts you to automatically install HTC Sync,

don't

do it. Open Device Manager and select the option to manually select drivers. Then pick the generic Android MTP device.

Also, if you have a MicroSD card, and a USB card reader, you can just use it to put a ROM on the SD card. Then insert card into your phone. Boot recovery, and flash the ROM.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GabrielOspina:
i just did adb sideload , and flashed the viper rom , everything works perfectly now.....also originally my phone wasn't even bricked , i just didn't give it enough time to load the first boot..... so i went back to the revolution mod....everything works except wifi....
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
Plus it's always a good idea to save a nandroid of the stock ROM that of course you made before you flashed anything besides a recovery and superuser.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
You need to update firmware, hence the extremely long boot time and broken WiFi.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GabrielOspina:
what is the latest firmware for my htc one m8, my hboot is 3.16.0.0000?? thanks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BerndM14:
Well what version of Viper do you have now?

If it's 3.0 You'll need the 3.x firmware (Android 4.4.4)

If it's 2.5.0 you'll need the 2.x firmware (Android 4.4.3)

Giving us your hboot version to show that you're possibly still on 1.x doesn't mean anything. It just confirms that you'd need to perhaps update your firmware.

What's your CID?

There isn't "US roms" and a "UK roms". It's all the same. UK seems to be shipping with 51.1.4.0, eventually the US units will get that version pushed and when we get the update URL there will be a prerooted version of it.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskay993:
If you trying to stream Prime Content from your UK account to a US AFTV, then you shouldn't have a problem as long as you have at least 5.1.1.3.0 firmware installed (I think that's the right one.. you need the one that was introduced when Germany launched). I stream my UK Prime Content on my US box just fine.

One thing to note, when you switch your account on the box to UK, then force sync, it can take up to 10 mins for your Prime videos to show as free. This happened to me once, even after multiple box reboots.

Don't forget to show the developers some love and thank them.

I am just providing proof that this works and how to get it.

Use these at your own risk and I am NOT responsible for anything that happens to your device.

Anyone interested in a "dark dialer and contacts" along with "cobalt blue themed" here is how you go about it.

Prerequisites:

1. nandroid nandroid nandroid! Just can't say it enough.

2. Download all files needed. The links to the Dev threads where you can download the files needed are listed below.

3. Must have g3 tweak box installed.

4. Must have xposed installed.

5. Must be rooted and bump TWRP installed.

---

The blacked out dialer must be flashed through TWRP. Not sure if it is needed, but I wiped Davlic and cache when I flashed to prevent headaches.

---

To use cobalt theme go to G3 Tweakbox / theme tweaks / THEMES / phone app then choose cobalt theme and reboot.
