tried so many kernels nothing works ( all the kernels made my note 3 lag and get hot and i mean so hot feels like its burning
gonna try to change the rom just downloaded X-note V20 and gonna install their kernel also and i wish it will work ill post if anything works
untill next update im gonna try everything with whatever kernel there is its killing me i need to make the front camera works ( thinking of burning the whole device i swear its driving me insane )
i know its not a hardware issue cause it used to work randomly ( when i clear catch and force close it used to work but randomly which means other times its not working )
so anyone with any idea what so ever i dont care just tell me even if it is simple or stupid idea its ok im willing to try anything
tried cymera thanks to N1NJATH3ORY

" thinking of buying the front camera and try to install it at home since this thing making me want to burn my note 3 or crash it the only problem is i love my note 3 so im still gonna leave the front camera part as a last option before destroying this loved device ... still thinking hmmmmmmmm "

sorry if i took too long to reply but i was trying the app on different kernels nothing works .... i know the hardware is fine because it use to work randomely but i dont know what is causing this app to act this way im dying to find one

Before tripping Knox why don't you flash stock firmware and take the phone back to Samsung to get it replaced ? You do know Samsung smartphones ship with 24month warranty ? i know you said hardware is fine but it sounds like it is a hardware problem to me.. As you have tried different kernels nothing works it's hardware not software... i could be wrong but try Samsung service center...

you could be write

well you might be right as im thinkin of it different kernels and still no luck so its a highly a hardware but since all kernels did not work as they supposed to i thought it might be rom related issue !! im still backing up my data and gonna try the new X-note V20 with their kernel " wish me luck "
well thats a good idea about taking the device to samsung the only problem is samsung company where i live in they suck and i do mean it ...
for example when i called to ask for their nearest location they said they dont support samsung smart phone ( huh !! but they are samsung device's ) they replied with there is another company thats handling the smart phones ... in my country ( Kuwait ) the repair shop is better than the companies and the repair shop dont know anything you dont ,,, most of them learned from the internet ... ( there are alot good repair shop but their too expensive ) im not gonna pay 75% of the device price just to fix the camera ... i would buy a new device !!
so a warranty means nothing i know it sucks but thats the true looooooolz
last reason for not doin that is
i wanna do fix anything i own myself i dont wanna depend on any repair shop or anything ....
anywayz im greatly thankful for your reply that made me think its hardware issue ... i might search for front camera part now if their cheap in amazon im gonna buy one and lets hope i dont blow up the device looooolz

Dude I know the centers suck they do the same thing here in the UK, Samsung don't handle the repair themselves third party deal with it. i had a issue with a galaxy note they replaced it with a new one within 7 days so it's not a long wait try here http://www.samsung.com/ae/support/servicelocation
And if you feel like replacing the front camera yourself ebay or Amazon are the best for parts by the way have you ever dropped your galaxy note 3 ??

That's a bit stupid you have to pay for warranty what kind of warranty is that ? Here in the UK we pay nothing not one penny warranty means manufacture pays for everything not end user.. Anyway can you paste the logcat to pastebin so i can take a look ? i'm no pro but there are some android pros on here they might be able to help?

Dude i doubt it very much you would able to install a Front facing Note 4 camera on a Note 3 for starters the connectors wouldn't most likely fit, And the camera might not be able to sit correctly in side the phone you can try but i can guarantee you will be wasting money time and money...

magicall

ok so i ''bought'' magicall from some ''non-torrent'' website and it appears i have version 2.x(the only working cr4ck that i found haha)
so anyway i have this problem, i have some girls that i chat with (wont go into detail) and my girlfriend hates it when i talk to other girls so i want to block text(sms) messages from some of them but i have tried to do this but it just would not work...I will put some screenshots here to show what I did in the setup and hope you guys can tell me why it is not working =O
so to summarize what I want :
1.I want to block SMS/TEXT messages
2.they have to be deleted and not show up(i don't care if i cant read them)
3.it has to happen SILENTLY(or as much as possible)
4.it has to happen everyday all day long until i turn it off(I don't get the last part of the program where you can enter a time from till ...do i type 0.01 till 23.59?)
if any1 could help id love you to death(no homo)

So why don´t You get Yourself an Iphone Crap4 and get Your hacked sw there ? It´s one thing that You pay 400 bucks for a phone (nobody forced You though with a gun to Your head) it´s sumthin completely different to install cracked sw. The Dev-People have to live on it and invest much time in dev. So You better shut up an f*** off.

Orange are crap I agree they are the best at screwing up phones with there bloatware, I've been with them for over 10 years but on a business tariff so I now get through straight away.
Beware if you got with three I was going too until I found out as of the end of may three don't do phone insurance anymore.

Really? After reading all 14 of your posts, I realize that I can't seem to dumb myself up enough to understand your poorly written thoughts. I have taken the liberty of quoting my absolute favorite of all your well thought out posts below. I think the use of "sound so stupid" within it is priceless.
You're definitely proof that reproduction has absolutely nothing to do with intelligence! How else would you have grandchildren?
Do the forum and yourself a favor and spare us your remarks so as to not "sound so stupid !!!"
Do your grandkids a favor and never attempt to read them a bedtime story!
ven2112 said:
hi, firstly may i say im sorry for asking these questions as to you guys they will sound so stupid !!! after giving up my trusty se k800i after many years & pressure of the grandkids to move with the times i now have a htc wildfire ( didnt even know who htc were untill now !) although i seem to be getting to grips with it ( well kinda lol ) i am quite dissapointed that there wasnt a better instruction manual in the pack, i only got a quick start guide, so these are the things i would like to know
text message- how do i forward a recieved message? i cant find the option anywhere ?
is there a option to get up all the text boxes? ie: sent box, recieved,drefts etc..
locked- is there any other way to wake the phone up apart from the on/off button at the top? i have problems with this now as i bought a gel cover & its makes it harder to use with 1 hand !
glowing buttons- is there anyway to have the 4 buttons (home,menu etc ) on the bottom glow when the phone is in use? these are impossible to see in low light & i am sick of hitting the wrong 1 !!
apps- is there a app for viewing tv on the wildfire? bbc i player , catch up tv etc, i looked on the net & skyfire seems to be the app but when i search the market its not there ?
anyway , that will do for now lol, im sure i will be back with more stupid questions soon lol, i quite like the feel of this phone although i was very dissapointed that it will not do video calls as this is a feature i used quite a lot on my old phone as i work away & chatted to the grandkids & they showed me stuff they had made at school etc, its my own fault for not checking i suppose, i just assumed, if old phones can do it surely the cutting edge phones can, i was wrong lol, anyway thanks for letting me drone on !!!

:good:
they were just questions about a new phone i had purchased, i don't do gizmos & thought i would just ask on here as there were a lot of people on who knew what they were talking about, after all i thought that was the idea of these forums to pass on knowledge & if you don't ask you don't learn, obviously i was wrong as there's people like you who know it all, anyway i see from your profile that your a usa marine, i worked along side them many years ago when i was a engineer in the royal navy & if i remember correctly when i said “good morning “ to them they were stuck for a answer! so i fully understand why you get excited over a new screen protector, anyway thanks for your invaluable help & i think i will just leave it there! :laugh:

[Q] LG E960

Ive had the above for about a month never have i been satisfied with the volume (being hard of hearing doesnt help)to the point where id all ready booked a repair date for next week
The phones unlocked and rooted (bit obvious else i wouldn't be on this forum would i )and in truth ive been playin with a lot of patches and apps out there to improve the volume
Now yesterday after tryin beats xlouder and a couple of sound boost apps. i followed a link to bryce09 kernel which i flashed only to find it killed the phone and i mean KILLED
Ive tried the Nexus repair toolkit/Wgfresh on a VM running W7 and nothing!!
Now im on an iMac and ive run Galaxy Nexus GSM unroot/stock and it goes through all the processes and at the end says press start
But theres nothing on the screen at all all tho and the power button does nothing
Now if i strip down the phone and disconnect the battery am i right in thinking it will reset it
or as ive all ready got a repair booked is it worth it
Oh hell no. You will void your warranty. Just send it back and get it fixed.

Surely thats all ready void as the phones unlocked/rooted
Can you get into fastboot?
As a bye the way
Ive just finished have a online conversation with LG who tried to phone me this morning about the booked repair ( why do they do that ? surely if youve booked a repair does it not follow that youve a problem with your phone )
Any way the out come is they dont want to know and ive to get in touch with Google and see abot send i to them for repair after some of the reports ive read on forum i can see this being a runner not
Might jus post the whole text on here later for peeps to view

the only way i can get any response is plug the USB in hold the power button for a long while then i get a red LED near the USB in
Update
So after speaking with LG about my repair they advised me to get in touch with Google (my god i was looking foreward to that)any way all went well didn't seem to get through to the ignorant irish
Finished up with my RMA and nearly £300 lighter in my pocket which i hoping wont ultimately go through
Gets the replacement Nexus ....now the TNT guy that delivered it i knew as i worked form them for many years he told me that he picks up loads of theses LGs for replacement they ship out to Poland of Korea ....must be by the lorry load
Just wish id knew this before i got rid of my old Sammsung Galaxy Nexus
So any ways its on eBay lol not even going to undo it
with out a doubt worst phone ive had
Please tell me you did not tell them what you did to the phone, because that would have been silly, and partially my fault because I forgot to warn you. If your phone was indeed dead, it would have been difficult for them to tell.

Did anyone actually send an unlocked/rooted phone back and got a warranty void e-mail/call? Everyone seems so concerned, yet i know users who sent theirs without returning to stock and it was no problem at all...

So after speaking with LG about my repair they advised me to get in touch with Google (my god i was looking foreward to that)any way all went well didn't seem to get through to the ignorant irish

Silly repair booking person, to assume you've given the a different contact number, considering your phone may be broken, they'd never assume you'd give them that number
vivid experiance
I purchased Nexus 4, on the 4th day it's failed to boot i don't root or damage anything
only stuck in boot process and nothing i searched xda
i got how to flash the firm from xda developers i did what they tell
but i flashed successfully
i turn on mobile the same boot failure again came it's not woking
what i do ? tell me i sent to mobile dealer they replace me and give me a new box

Ive had the above for about a month never have i been satisfied with the volume (being hard of hearing doesnt help)to the point where id all ready booked a repair date for next week
The phones unlocked and rooted (bit obvious else i wouldn't be on this forum would i )and in truth ive been playin with a lot of patches and apps out there to improve the volume
Now yesterday after tryin beats xlouder and a couple of sound boost apps. i followed a link to bryce09 kernel which i flashed only to find it killed the phone and i mean KILLED
Ive tried the Nexus repair toolkit/Wgfresh on a VM running W7 and nothing!!
Now im on an iMac and ive run Galaxy Nexus GSM unroot/stock and it goes through all the processes and at the end says press start
But theres nothing on the screen at all all tho and the power button does nothing
Now if i strip down the phone and disconnect the battery am i right in thinking it will reset it
or as ive all ready got a repair booked is it worth it

Sure, "your brother" .. :eyesroll:
Well, if it is really a tmo device and "your brother" flashed an incompatible radio (would be good if you were to provide the full name of the file) then your device is indeed bricked. The only way to fix it is by connecting directly (jtag).
Yes my bro

Come On Marvlesz (your brother & eyesroll ) a bit too much i mean i didn't even get my phone before a week ago because it slipped out of my pocket before boarding a flight to egypt thats the only reason on this planet that allowed him to toy with it if he was here he would be in hospital for toyin with my stuff ...
BACK TO THE SUBJECT AND ENDING MY LIFE STORY.
As for the file names that would be impossible because i have a 3 gig folder for the htc hd2 roms / radios / etc i think that he just flashed the wrong radio on top of the "clk" without using task 29 formatting or even reinstallinf the original wm 6.5 before installing wp 7 so to many things and when i ask he says i did what u do every time !!!! AS IF..
Will i pick it up from the repair shop tomorrow not tonight i hope they fix any way reporting pack tomorrow .. // Bye

I feel your frustration but in the same time, it's funny to see you put a blame on the G2 instead of the custom ROM or even yourself. Seriously.
You said it was NORMAL, didn't you. It only happens after you "play" around with it. Don't you have anything in your mind such reverse back to stock?

First off, sorry you're having problems with your phone, but it might not be going into deep sleep. You could try BetterBatteryStats or CPUSpy to see if you could alleviate the problem. Good luck.

Did you say this? "it`s normal but i installed new firmware ... "
Did you say this? "buy those sh** phone and not bought nexus 5"
You buy a Rolex, rip it apart, put something else in, then it doesn't function well. You say the Rolex is a piece of junk?
You buy a BMW, rip it apart, add some mod. and it looses power. You claim the BMW is a shyt?
You buy a MAC, put Windows OS in, ehhhhhhhhh. The MAC sucks????
Use some thinking before doing anything to your device.
As for your case, I advice you
1. Call your provider or LG, tell them that the G2 sucks 'cuz you flash new firmware and it wouldn't work the way you expect. Demand their apology. See what they tell you.
2. Throw away your LG, and buy the Nexus 5 and be happy with it.
Mike already gave you some suggestion, I hope others will too.

OK you,
0. Don`t act like super genius person and don`t act like u`r boss
1. "Did you say this? "buy those sh** phone and not bought nexus 5"" <-- Yes i said like it
2. "Did you say this? "it`s normal but i installed new firmware ... "" <-- no i said that "ye while root it`s normal" and reseted firmware for unroot
and you think that i`m always like that way? noo man u are totally wrong... i installed new firmware cuz of those battery drain and root (actually same version as i had but just re flashed, but u can think its new firmware)
ohmm Nexus 5 is by LG by the way xD xD
oh and about carrier contact xD i bought from reseller in my country so...
idk what u mean in suggestion for Mike but at last he helped me, he suggested a apps that can help me he`s not like u. Oh ye and i actually was (and im now) nervious cuz it? why not? its a simple problem? nooo
and last thing: i`m not going to "fight" with u in my thread so its my last words, if u have to tell something more to me. PM me

No one fights with you.
I just take a little time to educate you a bit so next time, instead of say "this one sucks and should have bought the others", just saying "i have done some stupid things and now it won't work, please help" or "what's wrong with my device since it drains so much, can someone please give me some advice".
That will make your life better, not only in this sub-forum of G2 but every other aspect in life. Nobody wants to hear you put a blame on something that wasn't there in the beginning.
Have you ever searched and see how many people get great battery life on stock ROM?
Have you ever wonder why only a few come to your thread and help?
Anyway, that was just my advice to you, take it or leave it.
Kids who blame the device because they can't use it.

if you wanna keep everything the same as before, you shouldn't flash any customized roms, only the stock rom is the most stable one.
