[Xperia Z3 General] abhinav.tella:
That link was only a blind camera comparison not a phone review by the way.

I mean Note is not bad at all but for me AMOLED kills it. I keep 2 year contracts so I get OCD about burn in lol. Just my opinion by the way:).

Battery life varies based on what you use it for, webpages LCD is much better, videos oled.... LCD of current generation are getting close to oleds in efficiency in videos etc.
[Xperia Z3 General] Zanr Zij:
Battery: Z3 better about 1-1.5h Screen on time

Camera: Note 4 better accept extreme low light.

Samsung TW heavier, lagger but much more functions.

Note 4 will have much more custom Roms, Kernels, Mods so you will improve battery with after next some months.
[Xperia Z3 General] darkrai:
Don't forget to write note 4 snapdragon variant

Exynos is famous for bad development
[Xperia Z3 General] Zanr Zij:
I believe this time will change. Exynos variant will have much more development due to better CPU performance, 64bit suppport promising :)
[Xperia Z3 General] darkrai:
Never did happen with older sammy phones

Z3 is much better than exynos n4 in battery and is as good as snapdragon n4

In display, no phone can beat note 4 in it (except brightness)

I prefer z3's camera over note 4
[Xperia Z3 General] Zanr Zij:
I already used Snap N4 a week. I'm sure that Z3 battery better, atleast 1h SoT.

Display: N4 is not the best, of course very good. It has a bit yellow tint. I compared N4 next to Dell UltraSharp calibrated.

It also is not good for your eyes due to too high contrast.
[Xperia Z3 General] inaya45:
The Note 4's 16MP rear camera flaunts the fastest focusing speed owing to its latest ISOCELL sensor technology which is boosted by Galaxy S5's phase-detection auto-focus capability.

The new Note 4 also features optical image stabilisation feature for its rear camera and a 3.7MP front camera for capturing selfies as well as full HD video recording at 30fps.

In contrast, the Xperia Z3 sports an imposing 20.7MP rear camera with 8x digital zoom and 3x clear image zoom, and a compact 2.2MP front camera for capturing 1080p (Full HD) video at 30fps.
[Xperia Z3 General] abhinav.tella:
Note 4 uses a Sony module, the GS5 uses ISOCELL.
[Xperia Z3 General] Zanr Zij:
Note 4 sensor: Sony on Snapdragon, ISOCELL on Exynos.
[Xperia Z3 General] abhinav.tella:
My bad, thanks for the info.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sofia-captivate:
I have sony z2 i get bored of devices really quick and it's time for a upgrade. I only care for camera and battery life the most. So which out of these 2 devices you guys think will be great device for camera and battery life? Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 General] honhan0904:
This is note 4 forum so i recommend note4 lol

Note 4 have specific features that there is no phablet in the world can compare to this device up to now

Battery while good and with fast charging system you maybe never worry about it

2k resolution make this device have the best resolution of phablet world

Camera is great. With 16 megapixel rear cam and a lots features in camera. Maybe z3 have better camera(20mp) but i still think note 4 cam good enough for me .

More and more feature with S pen you will find out when you have it

So i recommend Note 4 ( i use exynos version);)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] barondebxl:
Well If you get bored real fast then don't go Z3 cause its almost identical to Z2.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] POLO_i780:
The Note 4 will be better at both.

The Z3 has great camera specs, but Sony are rubbish at optimizing their software for the great camera HW, especially post-processing of images, very aggressive, while Samsung are brilliant at getting the best out of what is in fact a Sony 16MP sensor in the Note 4.

The Note 4 won PhoneArena's blind camera test, the Z3 came in 2nd Last with the LG G3 coming last:

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Sams...comparison-iPhone-6-is-distant-second_id61676

As for batter, the Note 4 uses a more powerful yet also more efficient Snapdragon 805 CPU while Z3 uses the older and less efficient 801 CPU, also the Note 4 uses a far more efficient SuperAMOLED display while Z3 has a regular IPS LCD panel, the Note 4 battery is also slightly bigger.

GSMArena battery test results of Z3 and Note 4
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jah:
Different strokes for different folks
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Zanr Zij:
Battery life: Z3 better for normal usage. About 1-1.5h screen on time.

Camera: Note 4 better accept extreme low light.

I have Z3 and already test Note 4 in about 1 week.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Chengalang:
Day 1 of my Note 4 I spent the whole day tinkering and running my own real world test. At first i thought the performance was a downgrade from my HTC M8, it was not as buttery smooth and the battery didnt seem to be as great as everyone stated on YouTube. Day 2 on a more casual run through I noticed a better battery. I also got more comfortable with the S Pen and all the phone features which resulted in a better experience. Im really started to like this phone compared to almost regretting i got it.

What's everyone elses experience on their first couple of days with the Note 4?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mchief298:
Well, here's my first couple of days. S-pen feels much better than the note 3. When I get a Samsung, the first thing I do is download Nova launcher. Not this time. I usually hate touchwiz but here it feels and looks nice. The performance coming from my M8 is a little laggy. Much smoother than the Note 3 for me, though. Battery life is what's I thought it would be. Which is great. I'm using the spen as a mouse and it works great. Lack of root is saddening.. But not deterring. All in all its a great phone.

:edit: After using it in a normal day situation.. I've lost 35% in 3 hours with an hour screen on time. Just browsing Internet and Facebook.

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] BasPilot:
Decided I wanted to grab a different smart watch than my Pebble. So, I went with the Galaxy Gear 2 Neo (black of course). I wasn't thinking at all about compatibility because it didn't make sense that the new Note 4 wouldn't work with one of Samsung's own devices. I was very curious when I didn't find the Gear Manager icon anywhere and I wasn't sure what exactly I was doing because the watch was only working in Korean.

In the end, I looked it up on Samsung.com and under compatible devices the Note 4 was not listed. I was completely shocked to see this. I paired it with my Note Pro 12.2 (yes, I'm a Samsung Fanboy, get over it - I love to draw with the stylus on a screen). It worked great, but it wasn't working with my phone. I figured out later how to get it to work with my phone by pure dumb luck. It's not put out there anywhere on the internet that I could find, so here's the steps:

Step one, go to bluetooth settings and scan for a device on your phone and make your watch discoverable.

Step two, select your watch on your phone

The phone will go and download the gear manager software by itself and do the rest. You don't need to do anything else to make it happen. I was completely shocked it was this easy, and it works perfectly.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Hgaara:
Isn't that the standard procedure for pairing any bluetooth device the first time? And Gear Manager is in the Galaxy App Store no?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Uniquebarbee:
We are glad you finally discovered this :good: FYI Note 4 works with the Gear 2 as well. the gear 1 Gear 2 Gear 2 neo Gear fit are all compatible with Note 4. Samsung is promoting the Gear S now so cool. I'm sure you have helped someone out
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] rabilancia:
I am trying to pair my Galaxy Note 4 with my Galaxy Gear Smartwatch (1st gen). I have installed Gear Manager from "GALAXY Apps" and am following the instructions for a manual pairing (e.g., NFC is on and Gear charging dock is attached). The devices pair but disconnect in 20 to 30 seconds (message: "Gear disconnected or is out of range of mobile device") during the initial pairing setup resulting in a failed setup. Does the Galaxy Note 4 really work with the Galaxy Gear Smartwatch?

If so, what can I do to get this working?

Should I consider flashing the Tizen ROM with Odin before setting up?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] rabilancia:
Galaxy Note 4 works with Galaxy Gear Smartwatch (gen 1)

Got it working. I had to install Tizen before the Note 4 would pair. Here's how I did it:

1. Basically followed these instructions:

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/samsung-pushes-out-tizen-galaxy-gear-sm-v700-how-install-1450698

2. However I needed to figure out how to get the Galaxy Gear into "download" mode. Got those instructions here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0LeAPsN8-mc

3. Once Tizen was installed, there was a wizard on the Galaxy Gear to prompt through the process. Everything went smoothly!
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] ozaghloul:
Just download Gear manager from Samsung apps. No need to do any other steps.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] rabilancia:
Probably true for newer Gears but not the "gen 1" that originally came with Android. It needs to get Tizen installed first.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Uniquebarbee:
That is good to hear you got it working you just had to check usb debugging on watch under gear info and check on phone under samsung gear also. I didn't watch the video just saying. And the above poster is right also. You could have stayed on android Tizen is not that great
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] ozaghloul:
The Gear S is also Tizen, so does that mean it will not be compatible with Note 4 out of the box?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Uniquebarbee:
It will work out of the box gear 2 which I have is Tizen only as well I just prefer android but I wanted this watch so I'm ok with it there are not to many developers for Tizen is all
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Kibosh3:
I have Gear 2 Neo - works well with my Note 4 but it worked better with my old GS3 using Wanamlite ROM.

On GS3 it would show a preview of the sms when i get the initial notification... on the Note4 it just shows that I received an sms from the person.

I can't use handcent on Note4 anymore as it asks to make it the default messaging app, which then makes it so that the "messaging app" on Gear 2Neo does not get notified when I receive sms.

...small things like this are bothersome... maybe it's 4.4.4? or maybe it's because its stock TW? ..

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MWS5L34/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

So i bought this little "sticker" for 12 bucks.

Best 12 bucks I have ever spent.

Installed this and immediately got extra 2-3 bars of 3g and 4g. In areas where signal was romaing i now have at least 2 bars on network.

The NFC also works from a little bit more distance.

The QI charging is "fast". What i mean is the trickle charge is fast enough to charge the phone from 60-90% in about 45minutes.

I though about using a microwave to charge it but decided i dont want to melt the plastic frame.... LOL!!!!!!! iphone uses... derp

[Verizon LG G3] Khiraji:
Just got one of those this weekend, wireless charging is awesome! I got a fairly simple Qi pad for the phone to sit on, and it works great. I have Tasker set to pair up with my Bluetooth speakers when charging, for a Pandora alarm every morning. Quite nice.
[Verizon LG G3] findinghomer:
It has nothing to do with signal. It won't effect it, it's for wireless charging add on. Anyone who goes this route, be very careful that the contacts lineup. It's very easy to miss, I recommend "dry fit" before permanently applying.
[Verizon LG G3] buck95:
For sure make sure the contacts line up. I bought a new back cover with Qi . It wouldn't charge, had to remove and reinstall the sticker to make it work. Knowing this, It would have been much cheaper just to by the sticker. Measure the distance from the top and side on your old sticker before removing. Makes line up so much easier.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashmanmb:
Having some interesting issues with my firetv with xbmc that I never had when using an apple tv with xbmc.

I run a mysql server. It is running and XBMC Attaches to it perfectly.

But my issues are that as follows

1. Watched state disappears if fire tv is rebooted

2. cannot resume my movies from where I left off

3. some posters revert to poster I don't even have.

Wondering if anyone has anything I can try to see where the problem is.

Mysql runs on my mac pro, with the xbmc media files store on the hard drives there.

My fire tv uses sources.xml which has all my sources mapped.

Content settings don't stay on my setup for type of content.

My main concern is it is as if the database for xvmc is wiped every time I reboot the fire tv...

This never happened on openelec with my apple tv 1st gen running 13.2 and never happened when on eden on apple tv 1st gen original os, and never happened on xbmc 13.2 on an android mx2 box I had.

Everything was working with resume, watched state, etc on the other systems that ran 13.2, so not sure why the fire tv is doing it.

Fire tv is rooted, updates blocked, boots into XBMC using the xbmc launcher.

Advanced settings file has all the settings and I know it is using it because I have checked and it is using it.

I am at a loss as to why it seems as if my database is constantly resetting on mysql....

Hi there,

I'm hoping someone can help a long time lurker out. I've been using my S5 for quite some time, and I use a hotmail account as my main email address, using the stock email app and S Planner.

Whenever I would receive a meeting request via email, I would normally accept it, and it would place the meeting in my calendar. I could delete the invitation from email, and all would be good.

All of a sudden, starting yesterday, if I accepted the meeting, it would place the meeting in my calendar as normal . . . . . until I deleted the emailed meeting request from my inbox. As soon as I did that, the meeting would disappear without any warning from my calendar.

I've looked high and low in the phone, and I cannot find any settings for this at all. I can't recall installing any software, or changing any settings that could have caused this. Nor have I updated the phone since I got it in the summer. I'm rooted as well, if that makes any difference.

I tried factory resetting the phone this afternoon, I did NOT restore any backups to it, however I'm having the same problem.

Am hoping someone can help me out.
