I've had a fitbit, 2 garmin (vivoactive HR & Forerunner 235) and my S3. All seem to do a nice job counting steps while walking, but only the S3 does the job on an elliptical. I often get on my elliptical in the evening to punch up my steps to 20-25k and in so doing, so I don't gt lost in the exercise for more than an hour, I'll count my steps while riding the elliptical. The accuracy is uncanny. I don't really pay attention to my running or walking steps in a similar manner, as I'm happy with my results.

In my opinion, you have to take these fitness trackers with a grain of salt. Each has a weakness, HR is the weakest on the S3, IMO, but as long as I have other matrix to gauge my performance I am happy.

I love the look of the S3 over the other smart watches I've had over the lat 6 months and I've learned there are just some things it might not do exactly meet our expectations. It's how you feel you can adapt that will make the difference.

All my opinion, be sure you're up to date on your (grains of) salt today.
[Samsung Gear S3] ruva:
My Samsung Gear S3 pedometer show 93% wrong. 15 756 real steps are 14 795 steps on Samsung Gear S3 watch. Nearly 1000 steps less. If dayly steps is important Fitbit is better/perfect.
[Samsung Gear S3] sdmark:
Did you count your 15,756 steps? Not saying the S3 is more or less accurate, but I've heard fitbits will count steps when reaching for your mail, or drinking coffee. I think it's best to use 1 step counter and the steps are all relative
[Samsung Gear S3] sierra513:
This issue drives me nuts! I already had my watch replaced one time for this issue. Now the new one seems to be just as bad. This morning I got up, (dont wear the watch at night), Put it on, walked 17 steps, and it read 192 steps! Its stupid. I like everything else about it but the step counter is worthless. I know its accurate at times, but errors like this just take away any accuracy that it might have. With my first watch, it logged over 200 steps while I was standing in one place getting dressed.

Its stupid.
[Samsung Gear S3] rogerperk:
I have the same concerns. What I noticed is it's much more accurate the longer you walk. Could be GPS based and it needs a better sample. Try using your phone and your watch to measure steps or distance for several hours then compare. Mines usually just a tiny bit off with a 3 mile distance. Not enough to worry about for me.
[Samsung Gear S3] Goneeuro:
I'll add in my two cents. These are comparisons while wearing bat at the same time. S3 frontier and fitbit charge2.

Does anyone have CM13 working with Volte ??

Coz I saw this video on youtube where the person says to flash few files to get the Volte working on CM13 based ROMS!

and I was not sure hence asking.

anyone know of a good program for this? i'm using bankarama & it's ok but i'd like to try something else out too. thanks!
[Chromebooks] entrity:
I'm endeavouring to use libdrm to change gamma on my Chromebook. I find that when I call drmModeCrtcSetGamma, I get a "Permission denied" error, regardless of whether I run my program with sudo. See line 91 of my source code:

github.com/entrity/chromeos_gamma/blob/b5738b5c12575dbb4c66060502d1e3bd4381fe3e/drm.c#L91

So I insert a call to drmSetMaster(dat->fd) above drmModeCrtcSetGamma, and that results in an "Invalid argument" error. What is the correct approach, please? Documentation seems rather sparse, with the best I've seen being this:

wnwolf.com/display/2012/09/05/libdrm-samples/

[LG G Watch] brendon.recce:
SO, tl;dr-- My LG G watch turns on, then enters into a point where it is stuck doing the swirling colors boot animation until the battery dies. If I boot into bootloader mode, I cannot do anything other than reboot bootloader or power off. Recovery does not work, when I try it gives me the android guy on his back and tapping the screen does nothing. The restore tool used to be able to interface with my device, but now it does not even show up under 'adb devices.' If anyone could tell me something I can do, it would be greatly appreciated.
[LG G Watch] kanaan360:
Is your bootloader unlocked?
[LG G Watch] brendon.recce:
Yes, I have an unlocked bootloader. When I turn the device on, it shows the little 'unlocked' symbol.
[LG G Watch] feyd2blak:
If you boot to bootloader mode can you run fastboot commands? If so, download one of the 6.0.1 roms from XDA and then follow the install instructions. If not....hmmm, not sure!
[LG G Watch] brendon.recce:
How do I do fastboot commands? I can boot to bootloader mode, and the restore tool talks with my watch and recognizes it as a device sometimes.
[LG G Watch] MihaiSG:
Via a USB cable connected to a computer and the fastboot tool installed on that computer. You also need the correct fastboot drivers for this.

I installed Android 7.1.1 on Note 3. I believe through Resurrection Remix. Won't let me connect to my cellular data, just making calls or texts. Can't access internet through data plan.

What are the best Custom Roms I can install through TWRP 3.0, please include links and any help. It would be greatly appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] audit13:
Did you check the APN settings to ensure they are correct? Phone is running the latest bootloader and modem?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pax216:
Checked APN and it's correct. Don't know latest bootloader and modem
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] audit13:
You can compare the installed modem and bootloader to the latest stock ROM at sammobile.com.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ShaDisNX255:
If you install something like Resurrection Remix, you won't be able to make use of the Note features which, you know, are the whole point of getting a Note phone. I would suggest getting a Note 7 or Note 5 port as they still let you customize and have newer Android versions. Sure, the latest Android you could get is only 6.0.1, but you still get the great Note features the Note series are known for.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sylinvain:
Hi Team, What custom rom for Android 7.x can i use for a T-Mobile Galaxy Note 3 and not lose WiFi calling? The Note features are less important to me than WiFi calling. Only VZ services works well in my house. Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ShaDisNX255:
When it comes to Android 7.x you are very limited to using either Resurrection Remix or LineageOS. Everything else is based off of either S-series ports or Note ports (Android 6.x.x).

I've never tried either of those myself but you can look up their forums and see if anyone has Wi-Fi issues with them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Tmobilefan906:
You lose wifi calling after flashing ROMs other than stock. Unfortunately

Its making me scared i downloaded a recovery and flashed its via odin but always stock at boot logo with a red writing saying recovery is not seandriod enforcing

will it not progress past that? also, which S5 do you have? the model # will be SM-G900? but the ? will be a letter
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vincom:
model # of phone, what rom/firmware were u running .

which twrp version did u flash, provide a link to it.

dont be scared, most soft bricks are easily fixed, the red warning is normal, worst case scenario is flashing stock via odin
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youdoofus:
this is correct. sammobile.com/firmwares is the best place ot get said firmwares, but its a SLLLLLOOOOWWWWWW download for non premium members. But its the offical place to get em. D/L your firmware, flash it in Odin and youll likely be back to new. Then you can go from there for root and TWRP
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pro_rikee:
im using a samsung smg 900h and i tried flashing a twrp recovery and it wount always boot the recouvery but alwaysbstocks at samsung logo i did it several times and it finally boot into the recouvry once but still shows 0mb no storage .. after i removed the battery and inserted it back from there again it stoped loading the recovery can u help me please
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youdoofus:
go to sammobile.com/firmwares and download the firmware for your phone. its a slow download, but its THE BEST place to get the tar.md5 file. Flash it in Odin, and start over. That should get you up and running. The 0 mb thing is usually because a PIT file got flashed incorrectly.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vincom:
be sure to flash correct fw for 900h

same as w/twrp, which one/method did u try
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youdoofus:
this is correct, sammobile.com/firmwares is the most legit place to get the tar.md5 files, but the d/l is super slow if youre a free member. The wait is worth it tho as theyre straight from samsung. TWRP 3.0.2 is the best one ATM also. There are 3.0.2-1 and 3.0.2-2 as well, but dont use those as they are buggy as cr@p
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vincom:
3.0.2-2 is buggy in what way. its the only one afaik can lets me access my sdcards while in recovery via windows explorer
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youdoofus:
3.0.2-1 and 3.0.2-2 have well documented instances of issues restoring NANDs from internal and external that those versions made themselves. Ive never seen a report of 3.0.2 having nand restore issues. Used to see it all the time on 3.0.2-1 and 3.0.2-2 when they first came out a while back. For those of us who flash tons of ROMS, a good nand is necessary and it has to be reliable because having to Odin flash due to a corrupted nand is annoying.

I was agreeing with you earlier btw. just trying to give additional info
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] SpawnX1200:
Okay I know Arise sound mod is pretty much the golden standard and as a matter of fact that's what I'm using atm. But with the development being simply great under RN3P, I'm finding myself flashing roms/updates every other day and while the TB is handy and some other apps to get my phone up and running in no time, it's not exactly the same for the Arise Sound Mod (ASM). You have to go through it's little niggling process to install it again and set it however you like. If it was just a matter of flashing an extra zip I wouldn't be raising this issue, and while I reckon it's something that takes like 5mins to be done, sometimes I'm so lazy I couldn't be arsed to do it (I know I'm a lazy bump). So I was thinking is there any alternative out there? Before ASM I recall Poweramp did leave a good impression on me and I may be going back to it and taking the premium version, but I wanted to know what do you guys think? Any other app or mod out there can be installed more easily?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Rishabh1x:
Well nothing beats arise in terms of the sound quality that it gives. If you find it hard to get the configs going Everytime when flashing a new ROM, then you can use TiBu to backup data for the arise apps and then restore the data after flashing the mod and then a simple reboot will get you back on track.

You can only backup the app data and configuration of like your settings for viper app and Dolby...You cannot backup the whole thing with TiBu...Just reflash the mod and restore data for it's apps....

I'm using V7 MIUI rom, I downloaded V8 rom from miui.com (both of them are Chinese's rom). I find that I can copy apk files in "Data" folder and install it normally. But apk files in "System"--->"Data" and "Priv-Data" cant do like that. I cant install them like files in "Data" folder does, and I notice that those file have a folder in same directory, inside that folder have a ".odex" file.

So, i wonder that those file must be install in special ways? And How can I install them?

Thank you for my poor english.:good:
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuiltyGod:
Those system apk files usualy need to be flashed. You could copy and paste them in in a ROM.ZIP you are currently using and install them via a recovery (TWRP or CWM).

How it is actually done I am not realy sure (no experience) but in theory it should work this way.

I root with kingroot without worries, it started but impossible to enter the menu for developers, so I put an app to get there in system app, change the permissions but the watch blocks on the bootanimation.

I am well recognized by sp flashtool, the scatter file must be in nand, I can not find an adequate file, if anyone can help me I would be grateful.

Yes you can not take ota if you are rooted. It will bootloader you and you will have to do a full wipe to recover.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashwinrg:
Yes. If you root your android then you can't get OTA updates. Rooting make changes to your android system partition. OTA updates check modification​ to your android while flashing and found any modifications then OTA abort. If you get OTA updates on your rooted android and you flash then it chances to brick your android.

You want to revert back to stock to get OTA updates.

Hello there! So, I have been using my Moto 360 gen 1 with my Lg G4 (CM14 12-05-16 nightly) for a while now, and it just recently started doing this. Everything says my watch is connected to my phone, I can even send texts from my watch and turn on do not disturb from my watch (but I can't turn it off from my phone), but no notifications are pushing through to my watch. The only thing that fixes it is a factory reset on the watch, but that only allows notifications for a few days, then it just goes back to broken again. Any ideas? I love my watch, but it doesn't do me any good over a regular watch if I can't get notifications on it. Thanks!

Hi,

We all felt problem of LAGGNESS and PERFORMANCE from our beast after flashing the custom ROMs. No way problems could not be solved although flashing official stock ROM through odin.

HERE HOW TO SOLVE THE PROBLEMS.

First of all you have to download Smart Switch( Official PC suite)

and then simple flash ROM through the suite. DONE af

Just download SMART SWITCH from http://www.samsung.com/in/support/smartswitch/ to your pc.

BOOT your phone to DOWNLOAD mode [power+volume down+home key while phone in switched off mode]

Go to smart switch and press EMERGENCY SOFTWARE RECOVERY AND ... & follow the instruction.

Done!!!!!

HOPE UR PROBLEM WILL BE SOLVED LIKE ME

------------------------------------------------------

I have not yet install any CUSTOM ROM. So don"t know about performance in Custom ROM. If u have tried pls report asap.

I recommend INSTALL RR 6.0 (Only big problem is networkstabilty, others are okay).
