Should I ask for repair wifi issues (they won't replace) - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Most the time I get the message Internet is unstable .from every wifi I use not just home .I have the unlocked SM-N900. I'm in Thailand the samsung shop wants to reinstall the existing firmware..which means deleting everthing and reinstalling ( a pain in the butt).
Do u think this would solve the problem do u think it's a hardware problem.? Or wait until the next update? According to Kies I have the latest firmware.
How come only some people have this issue?..I have unticked wifi scanning and autnetwork switch. No change.
Thanks for any help

Mine has started doing this too. After a reboot and at random times. Lookout doesn't report any malware and all my apps are from play store. It's annoying more than anything else. It's a useless prompt as it does that say which process was closed.

Has anyone deleted Knox to see what happens other than a warranty void? I'm having the same issues when unload any titanium backup apps. It could be just one app I load up and I get this message. But if I get the app from the note 3 itself it doesn't prompt.

On mine it seems to be connected to the wifi in some way. For I In Bataan be I leave the wifi on when I leave home and when I pull into the driveway the message pops up.

Maybe, I was thinking of something along those lines, but maybe triggered by something the phone does. It happens when I am away from my home router sometimes, possibly driving through the range of another WiFi router, even if I haven't tried to connect.
I'll try to watch for that to happen when I go out today.

[Q] Anyone flashed N9005XXUDMK2 N9005OXADMK2 BTU (UK) ?

Anyone flashed the following file ? Its BTU for the UK
Model: SM-N9005
Country: United Kingdom
Version: Android 4.3
Changelist: 2019540
Build date: Fri, 29 Nov 2013 05:02:44 +0000
Product Code: BTU
PDA: N9005XXUDMK2
CSC: N9005OXADMK2

I had previously flashed N9005XXUDMJ7 But was getting terrible battery life. Now I've gone to N9005XXUDMJ6 (H3G) and things are better. Just don't know if I should experiment with this one.
Cheers for the heads up

Cool. Great to see someone on Three needing the same flashing requirements as me.
Any good so far ?
I toyed switching to H3G firmware, but decided against it (for now at least) - I was on BTU - Just switched ROMs to Crash rom with MK2 battery is pretty stable tbh better than when I originally got the phone. Everything is far smoother also, not sure I can go back to stock lol
I have MK2 since last night and it consumed only 2% battery till morning. So it is good till now.

How is your wakelock status? - Phone went into deep sleep without any issues then?
I don't know what app to use to see that. But what apps I have do not show something keeping the phone awake. And 2% over night is good I say.

I have MJ7 and got 0% over night. Really hapy with battery. 2 days when i have this device.

Use Better Battery Stats (BBS) from Playstore to check your wakelocks.

Although I am also on the three network, I bought my note 3 from expansys and it was unlocked, so I went for the update via kies 3 which now gives me JSS15J.N9005XXUDMK2
The only change I can see is my network mode now shows LTE/WCDMA/GSM selected by default, no LTE there before update, battery seems slightly better maybe?
Oh interesting, LTE added now. I wondered when Three were gonna issue the LTE update with software.

Flashed it last night. Suitably impressed it returned my system status to official, when my device's stock ROM did not.

It won't actually work on the LTE frequencies though, until they turn on the LTE towers, I read on their website rollout will start round about now in certain areas of the country, with more and more being added to the "LTE Enable Area" list next year

Yeah supposed to be live here (York) in January, Was wondering how they were gonna apply the update to enable LTE via (Unbranded) Phones not purchased through Three directly.
I'd have assumed that if it was available on your tariff, it would have just worked, whether the option to choose that band was in mobile options or not, as my mate picked his up unbranded N3 and he got LTE straight out the box as it's enable on his 4G account, admittedly I didn't check what version came on his phone before he ran the OTA, but it wasn't this latest one.
Us lot with unbranded phones and on Three, should see it just work and kick in, once we're in an enabled area, as they are activating 4G for everyone, no nasty price increases.or download limits imposed.... happy days
Sent from my GT-N8000 using Tapatalk 4
Main reason I switched, unlimited Internet and free 4G. Happy days indeed man

Go to Settings>More Networks>Mobile networks>Network mode and change it to gsm only. if it doesn't help then change it to wcdma only and if even that doesn't work then change to auto connect and get a new connection from a better company
Note: It takes some time to switch network mode so be patient and give it a minute or two to properly shift.
Seeing improvements after doing what you told.
Thanks alot.

1. Why did so many apps disappear?
2. Why is home WiFi "unstable" Internet connection ?

If you're talking about personal apps you should reboot the phone. They will reappear. For WiFi I've had no real issues. Just spent the weekend at my cousins house and I wasnt disconnected at all.

I forget the actual name of the setting but look for something like "smart mode" under WiFi settings as well as avoid poor connections and turn both of those off. See if that helps you at all. Did for me
Verizon S4
Liquid Smooth 4.4
&
Sprint S4
Negalite 4.4

[Q] Haptic Feedback won't work

Help!!! I have a VZW note 3, latest ota, rooted with towelroot, and no matter what I try no vibration whatsoever will work. Navigation keys, notifications, nothing will work. I have battery saver off and have already hard reset the phone. Any ideas on what's wrong? Thanks in advance!!!!
Not even a phone call? What about when you set it to vibrate does it buzz in?
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Absolutely nothing will vibrate no matter what volume mode... any ideas??? P.S. it was working when I first got my hands on the phone then we updated to the kitkat ota and it completely stopped. Even after a hard reset.
It could have been a bad flash. You should try using kies to reflash the official software.
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I just did. Nothing still. I'm guessing now I have to go rip open my phone and replace the vibration motor?
If your Knox counter isn't tripped I would just warranty a new one...
