OK...yesterday I opened a legitimate email from paypal. I got a really quick glimpse of an eye on the screen. Just like the big brother eye off the TV. Small, about 1cm across. I tried to make it show again and it didnt so i guessed i imagined it. Tonight i opened another email and it appeared again. I scrolled down and the screen scrolled back up to the top so the overscroll was glowing at the top. I scrolled it back down and it scrolled up again. The overscroll stayed like it was being held in place. I opened anothr email...same sender and it did the same. Now I was like WTF so I put it in flight mode. I was gonna immediately obliterate the system but I waited. First....anyone seen anything remotely similar and second anyone have any ideas about how the hell I find what it is before I clean the system so I can make people aware of it. Any info appreciated...had no idea how to start googling it and I promise I am not insane! Oh and AVG reports clean

not sure about you guys, but my browswer crashed at the pocketnow.com website. It's okay now but much to my surprise, in their review of Humingbird vs OMAP vs Snapdragon, the Captivate crashes on their website as well. Might have something to do with their website.

thanks, will try that. it doesn't happen all the time but it seems to happen once in a while. what will unchecking plugins do with other sites?
RAWK! Thanks, that was handy.
I just recorded a small video showing the formula introduction and search in the new Snote app in the ICS update.
http://youtu.be/xuNOewO5yNo
Ps: I set the OS language to "català" in case you are wondering.
Do you have 'MY Story'?
It's supposed to be part of the Premium Suite, but I can't seem to find it
Very nice! Surprised as how good the recognition is!
Is this the German 4.0.3 official release?
Yes, it is the German official release.
I updated downlading the update from sammobile to be able to update through mobile odin and keep root access.
So far, so good.
About "My Story", I cannot find it, I only have "mini Diary", but since I don't have my language set to English and I never used the old application, I have no clue if it is new or old.
My only issue is I keep having both the new S Memo app and the old one.
no my story
and we can't take photos from lockscreen from android4?
I have added a few screenshots of internet benchmarks.
Unfortunately I am unable to make screenshots pressing Home+Power buttons.
I also cannot set the screen brightness sliding my finger through the notifications bar
There is a new option to show the battery in %, sweet!!

This is very annoying.
When I wake up my phone, and the lock screen appears, the clock is not updated for 1-2 seconds.
It is very odd.
Very often, I just quickly unlock the phone to check the time and see the time of the the last time I woke it up, for 1-2 seconds, before the clock updates to the current time.
Is this happening to anyone else?
I can not believe an error like this got past the testers...
BTW: I already applied the OTA update.
Thanks,

So uh...delay in what kind of update?? Heh..
And I've had issues with widgets not updating properly. If I use a Extended Controls widget and tap the WiFi icon, the WiFi will turn off or on, but the widget will not update it's visual appearance to show that the WiFi is on or off. The clock has not changed time a couple times as well. The Flipbook widget freezes sometimes and some other widgets just don't even work at all. I don't know what to make of it. And I haven't updated yet.
Just suggesting a spell check on your title

OP is right **** updating is an issue. Wifey always is complaining about it.

But yes, I have noticed a delay in clock* updates. I haven't paid attention to it since the update, but i will report back.
don't pay attention to that minor detail.

Hi lovely guys of the Note 3 forum!!
I've had my Note 3 for some time now and I was wondering if my screen is defect since it does act a little weird. I hope you can clarify this for me
Whenever I put my screen on low brightness, the screen tend to leave a trail of purple color behind whenever I scroll/move something. It'd be very nice if anyone with a Note 3 could test this for me, if u are having the same problem or if it's just me
A good way to test this, is to set brightness to 0% and then pull the notificationcenter down and try to swipe the notifications away slowly and look closely, if u can find some purple trail leaving behind the swiping object. To see this clearly, you can download the app Lux and set the brightness to sub-zero. Try -50% and it should be very easy to see. Would mean a ton to me if you could report back. I need to return my device asap if it's defect.
Thank you very much!! <3
EDIT: Here is a video of the problem!

Nope just tested mine is fine no purple at all
Just turn off or switch off "development setting" and try again, if not, return the device.

Thank you so much for testing this! I wasnt quite sure if I was too critical or if there actually is something wrong. This might goes hand in hand with the battery drain that I am having when I am using the phone(idling is superb tho)

Don't think you can don't worry about it
Hey guys!
Just to confirm we're talking about the same thing, here is a video I took of the problem
EDIT: Seems like I've discovered a general issue with S4/Note3; Ghosting/smearing. God damnit, this is annoying. The shop will probably not even take it back now. ****..
cannot duplicate
I can't see this at zero brightness. I even installed lux and set it to subzero, and I still can't see it. I'm using an SM-900T.
I think I know what you are talking about. I also believe my smartphone has same problem. As an example if you download BBC News application,then scroll down to end of page and pull further you will see this tail of light appear. It also does this in the settings page when you scrol up or down but you have to get to bottom or top of page and pull further

Not sure if that was sarcasm... BEcause I hope it was.
That's the replacement for the 'bounce at end of page' that Apple successfully sued Samsung over. It now glows.
exactly the same problem with mine. fast moving UI elements leave a purple trail behind them.
could it be that some batches of screen are affected and some are not? it doesn't bother me too much though.

"New icon" and "Bug fixes" nothing great
I feel its much much faster
New Icon, definitely faster focus and no lag.
Only thing that hasn't been fixed is the front facing camera lag in low light
It also appears to be Wear aware. Looks to allow control from my Moto 360.

Camera update changed the icon, other than that it changed nothing.

A new neat feature of this update is that when you're running with the phone in your pocket, it really thinks you want to take a picture and opens up the camera.

I know it was there before, I've actually used it intentionally a few times before. But it never would open up when it was in my pocket. Suddenly after the update it started doing it. Maybe it was just the shorts I was running in, but it had never happened before.
