Look for a kernel compatible with 4.4.2 and your device model and flash it , be careful this case sensitive you may end up breaking your device if flashing the wrong kernel , use custom recovery to install .zip or Odin for .tar

[Q] S4 Lost NFC

Hi all I am newbie so please go easy on me
My S4 (9505) is on an EE 4G contract UK
I updated my phone to ME2 using Kies and of-course lost root.
I then used CF-AUTO ROOT and got the Wifi issues where it wont come on and it asks you to re-boot your phone.
So i then tried the rom from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250824
and used the stock ME2 one.
All seems ok Wifi working / 4g / but no NFC. I can enable NFC but i no longer get the NFC icon at the top of the phone. I touched it on my co-workers Note2 and nothing happens...his phone makes that NFC noise, but mine does nothing.
Anyhelp would be great.

Just flash the newest MEA ROM. Its very good, samsung fixed many things in this update.
Don't forget to clear cache and reset factory setting from recovery before and after you flash the new ROM.

Sorry to be a pain, but can you tell me.
1. the beat way to Clear the Cache and rest factory.. Is that in a custom recover or just the factory reset in the phone?
2. which MEA Rom I should use.
Many Thanks

In the stock recovery or any other custom recovery you have you can clear cache and reset factory.
With phone switched off press volume up button + home button + power button all in same time till is turning on.
This is the ROM >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314010
NFC should be working on unbranded ROM like the one you flashed, the reason the NFC icon is missing is because certain networks add the icon, in your case EE added the NFC icon on there own firmware.
Am on EE and that the first thing i thought as you.
hope it helps

[H] Can't call and answer to anybody.

Hi guys.
What should I do, if my major function of the phone doesn't work?
When I try to call somebody, phone hangs (can't see even screen with options of the call), but it is actually calling.
It's weird to have this not working at all.
Tried reinstalling rom, installing other roms. Still the same. I did format to everything what's on my phone.
Help!

You need to give more information than that inorder for us to help you , are you using 4.3 custom/stock ? check youre baseband version, and check what kind of bootloader do you have (To check your bootloader go to download mode and if you have a KNOX WARRANTY VOID then you are having the new bootloader.

Oh I'm sorry.
Now I'm using Phoenix V.7 rom. It is 4.3 touchwiz rom. I tried other roms also (4.4.2 - 4.4 - 4.3 - 4.2)
My baseband version is XXUEMK8 (today I thought about modem problem, so I installed XXUEMK8 instead od XXUEMKF, which is recommended for Phoenix rom. The same on both modems) New bootloader.

Voice Recorder - An application stopped working

What has happened to the microphone that it is not working properly?

[Q] Problems with screen and Back, home, menu and something else!!!

Hi guys!
I've just bought a Note3 n9005 in Singapore, starting with ANdroid 4.4.2
At first it worked very well. But after some times I restart, an error appeared immediately after the phone is on "Unfortunately...process phone.android.com has stoppped". I choosed "OK" and it wont come again if I dont restart my phone,
But it's not only all my problems. In fact I had used a fake S-view although it doesnt work with kitkat (It's a gift from Phone store, It was only used to protect the phone like a flip-cover). And a new problem appear: sometimes my phone is in LAG Touchscreen does not work, I try to drag the Notification bar down, I can do it, and then the screen displays the "notification infomation", touching is unresponsive. Home button and 2 touch buttons Back+menu does not work too. It is just solved by turn off the screen using Power button, and turn on it again.
Can someone tell me the reason about my problems? And how to fix them?
Thank you!
P/s:I'm sorry this is my first post so it can contains errors. Tell me please
Please help meeeee

What did you do exactly? did you root your phone and try to delete some stuff? use touchscreen test for your touchscreen to see
the problem,, you can find them on the play store.
What is your phone build number? last resort is just get the stock firmware and reflash it with odin3.09. search it over the forum.

Yes, do factory reset first. Backup everything from kies since your device is not rooted. will see from there.

If that doesn't fix it, you may have touchscreen issues. Some Note's are affected by this and need replaced.

Try with this method:
Go to recovery by holding volume up+home button+power and after this select wipe data and cache... MAYBE THIS METHOD WILL HELP YOU...
If anything not work go to a SAMSUNG service and say your problem...
Backup the stuff you want to keep and try a factory reset.
I already try both several times. When I go on recovery mode it's same extra bright....

i need app data and when it's not root i can't backup them
please give me the best solution.
thanks
any one?
Do hardware test, open Calculator, type .12345=+ , if the result returns okay then it's worth to give factory reset a try. You should backup manually though using gdrive, otg, micro sd, hard drive whatever. It happened to my Galaxy S3 once and the reset solved the problem.

if i try reinstall rom it's came back to normal mode ?!
I check the hardware test and sadly there is no capacitive keys test, my bad. Although it's rather pointless you may try this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.test.suite.android
Only home and back key test available. The following
could be done in sequence if previous attempt fails :
1. Play around with recent key option in asus customized setting
2. Try wipe cache partition
3. Flashing firmware
4. Flashing RAW firmware
5. If nothing works, most likely it's hardware issue
or in the mean you can use virtual softkeys available in playstore
