BRAVO!!! :p

Very comprehensive,authoritative,justifiable and meaningful approach. :D

I wud just like to add here in a nutshell in my own way,no harm meant to anyone,no hard feelings plz & I quote, :-

" Hey ! ya'all ,what are you doing here,why u'all scratching you heads for,with wide opened sleepless eyes starring at the Pc monitor and jumping to your PDA's,go get some rest man,give yourself a break man ,look your wife is annoyed,your children yelling,your boss might kick you out,why you have to sneak out in the night to work on this project,just forget it,it's not worth it... WHY! cuz here I'm MR.RICHIE RICH, I got the dough, I can get every device which comes out after every six months,so why take this trouble of upgrading, with this,OH **** HACKED SOFTWARE,when we have with us Mr.Silly $ator, Long Live Micro$hoft..huh!"

cooldude_no1

With my due apologies,no harm meant to you,but how many people in the world,do you think can buy a new device which comes out with new features and new applications every year,well perhaps 10 to 20% at the give and take average.

secondly, software owner's,vendors,device manufactures and carriers who launch their products dont give a **** after the sale of products,never care and provide support and upgrades to their products,if they did than no one wud have come here and how then will they launch new products.why shud all those people suffer who had paid there hard earned money to buy these devices and than they are deprived of their rights.

We all complement all the techies,gurus and hard working staff of xda forums for their relentless,priceless,reward less and with no monitory gains,the way they are serving the community.All credit goes to them ! Infact,if you go through all of their work,applications,software and cooking of latest Roms,one must say,they are even doing a much better,perfect and excellent job than manufacturers and vendors themselves,THUMBS UP :D

Ok if your are really interested to upgrade your device,there's a whole thread for your device,for your guidance and upgrade.see in the link below:-

Is there any mod to use air gesture sensor for non Samsung apps?

I know there are third party apps that uses proximity sensor but neither one uses air gesture sensors from galaxy devices. The difference is that galaxy sensor can distinguish swipe from left and from the right side.

Hi all

I am Quite new to rooting. Started about 5 months ago.

Am currently using the below ROM:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-3/...velopment/aurora-n900-5-3mixs6-n5-z5-t3298434

My issues is that my RAM usage is constantly very high.

Over 80%.

I have greenified most of the apps.

Lagfix done and increased the speed slightly but RAM usage is still very high

Anyone can assist with the reason why and what I can do to reduce RAM usage and make the phone faster?

Thanks in advance

[Galaxy Note 3 General] Sjant:
Post a screenshot of your application manager so we can see if there any apps that use an abnormal amount of ram.

It's worth to mention that more unused ram won't make your device faster. If you're having performance issues you should post it in the rom thread and ask for help.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] wajid iqbal:
If you are on Lollipop so yeah The Ram usage of lollipop is very high as compare to Kitkat......try some custom rom with less Ram usage!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] kevlinho:
Thank you for your responses.

Unfortunately the ROM thread is closed so I cant post there

Main issue is the slow speed of the phone.

Any advise will be appreciated

[Galaxy Note 3 General] Someguyfromhell:
High RAM usage is not a problem on Android, unlike Windows.

Android will free up RAM on it's own if necessary. Apps are kept in RAM as long as there is available memory to allow faster app start-up. Should there be larger need for RAM, older apps are removed from RAM.

I had the same error come up on mine, there is not a known fix for this as far as I am aware. You'll have to call customer service and do a warranty exchange. But DO NOT mention anything about rooting or messing with software. They will check for water damage and physical damage, if none is found they will send a new phone.

Hey.

I ask myself if the dual sim device SM-G9350 (Hong Kong model I think) with SD 820 comes with google play service/play store out of the box.

Is there someone who already owns it and can tell?

If its not installed next question would be if it is possible to just download the Google Play services apk and install it to get play store and others to work.

thanks!

Oh... yes.. sorry :D :D

Another question I could not answer by googling - does it have or not have a region lock?

But how could you answer this if you're in the destination country the device is sold for.

Edit: Did you have a label saying "HK or Asia SIM-Card only" on the packaging?

I don't think it have any lock ,but I can't find any root yet
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] WouterNLD:
Got mine (SM-9350) a few days ago via eBay while I was in Chicago. Now I am back home in the Netherlands. So I can confirm that:

- there is no region lock as I could do cell and data in all places mentioned. Nor had the box a sticker of a region lock

- it is the Snapdragon

- it has the Sony sensor

Let me know if you want some more info

What are the benefits of the HK firmware compared to the US firmwares? I've read in many threads that people with the HK firmwares are getting way more battery life than the exynos models whereas US firmwares are getting way less battery life and performance compared to exynos models.

I linked to a firmware on Baidu on this thread. Probably best to consolidate info there.

Also, I wonder if the support for dual SIM would make the kernel different. Anyway, let's discuss on that thread.

Yes, better than my note 5, but as good as it can be. Check you battery stats, there's large drain in Android System and Android OS processes (>20% and >10%). Typically, the are at the top.

Same with all Snapdragon versions, not with exynos. One of the big reasons why all the tests are showing that the exynos version has significantly longer battery life. just do some searching here on XDA.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] maroc84:
I don't know about the firmware versions for sure but I think it's working to flash it. I read that you could also flash a non dual SIM firmware to a duos. But I wouldn't also try it as first ?

You could try to install the Google play service framework from "unknown sources" by downloading it from apk mirror

But first save all your data. Maybe your device is acting crazy after this, so you maybe have to reflash your stock firmware.

Then restart, do the same with Google play store.

Root

Here's the cf-root-9350 file from China website from [MENTION=5580898]maroc84[/MENTION]. I had it uploaded on MEGA cloud.

p/s: I'm a new member so I can't post the external link, pm me for the link.

The root preparation procedure according to the China website:

1. Unlock the bootloader with CROM (G9350 seems to have unlocked bootloader, so skip this).

2. Install samsung mobile driver.

3. Download latest ODIN 3.11.1.

4. Download samsung G9350 root package.

Rooting Procedure (follow standard root procedure with odin and cf-auto-root):

1. Shut down the phone, press and hold the volume down button + home button + power button for 3 seconds, and press the

volume up button to enter download mode.

2. connect the phone to the computer with usb cable, and wait for the odin to detect the phone.

3. tick on "AP" on odin and select the cf-root-g9350.tar.

4. click "START" and wait for the "PASS" on odin then now you have got the root permission.

I am a Chinese from Malaysia, so I can read the website :D

I don't own this phone so I couldn't try the root.

Ah thanks a lot - I'll give that a try in a few days maybe. Just recovering from a failed attempt using Chainfire's method which crashed four times. Hope this one is good? Also waiting to see if there is any more input on the implications of rooting this device. It has been painless on the previous phones & my Galaxy tablet but the G7 seems a bit troublesome! I just hate that Samsung & Google want to dictate what I can and cannot do on my own device. And I also love being able to block all that irritating advertizing. And of course using a firewall in a must these days with all the crap they force on you.
