Hi guys. I recently got a galaxy note 5 SM-N920G from Samsung 64gb variant from Amazon India for 53,900rs.. I installed the phone info Samsung app from it and found out in the refurbishment section that the phone is original and not refurbished. But my concern is that the charging port used was shown as 7 times and headphones section as 5 times. Is that normal?

Sorry, this is the closest Forum to the K Zoom for it is an official variant of the S5. I just bought the K Zoom 3G (Spec can be found under Samsung country code za: samsung/za). This SM-C111M model runs Android 4.4.2,Baseband C111MUBU1ANE2, Build KOT49HC111MUBU1ANE5. I have a Gear Fit. This model in the spec supports Gear Manager. However, it is not supported on my K Zoom. According to Samsung tech (the best of many answers) is that Gear Fit Manager requires 4.4.3 or above. I can side load the Gear Fit Manager available on xdadevelopers (thanks), but it does not work. One "Samsung Experience Consultant" claims that I need a data plan (currently not using one, but on wifi). But others techs dispute that. I cannot locate a ROM for 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 update if one exists for this phone.
Can anyone help out this NOOB on where to find the 4.4.4 ROM on this new phone (I don't think it is even available in the US yet)? Cyanogenmod? Work around?
Ideas on what is the cause of incompatibility? I am still unsure of the Samsung techs answers.
Thanks in advance. Such a waste on the great deal on K Zoom (US$450) and Gear Fit (US$100) I got!

Odd. You claimed the same thing at three or four other forums too. It's bad form to spam the same post across multiple forums and all within 24 hours too.
4.4.3 and 4.4.4 are just rolling out, so they are probably not available for your device yet. Google will show you that about 30 versions of 4.4.2 are available for this phone on various firmware sites. And that appears to be the most current firmware at this time.
.
[Solved] Finally got the right information and solved this. The key is to update the firmware on the Gear Fit. This can be done with a PC (or Mac) with Samsung's Kies3. Connect with USB using the power connector provided with the Gear Fit. Update Gear Fit firmware, side load Gear Fit Manager from XDA, and you are good to go!
Hello guys,
I am new to the site,registered today, but always been a lurker from now and then.
Anyway after the mugging of my previous Note 4 about 3 months ago, i now have bought a new Note 4 again, They exynos model i believe SM-N910C (definitely wouldn't buy a note 5 or anything else, i'm just wowed by it) and this particular one, had android lollipop 5.1.1 already within the box. I did a software update, and it downloaded a 90mb update and installed.
The point of the thread is about Android device protection.
Does my Note 4 have it? I've read multiple places that most devices shipped with lollipop 5.1.1 will have it,
But when i locked my phone (using pin,pattern,fingerprint,passcode) and then after removing it, i did not receive that dialog which says "are you sure you want to remove the lock,device protection will be disabled".
So does the phone have it?
I appreciate your help guys.
Hi,
Now that Android 7 build are coming out for the note 3... does anyone know if the Note 3 can be made compatible with Google Daydream VR?
I have been given a Daydream VR and really would like to try it with the Note 3.
Thanks
I've been told the hardware on the Note 3 isnt compatible with Daydream VR... anyone know what the problem is?

Hey,
after a long search for battery switchable Smartphones, i bought the Note 4. I got a few questions:
1) is the eMMC Bug still present on "new" phones? I bought the Snapdragon Version (i need Modding/customROM Support) Can i check my phone about this?
2) is there still active development for this smartphone?
3) can you guys recommend a Wireless charger, batteries and an external charger?
Thankyou in advance!
Emmc bug is hardware failure, so not obvious to detect b4

I'm new to XDA, just trying to post a fact I've heard from my father, who was in charge of development of S2, Note tablet series and Note 4, 5, 7, FE and 8, etc.
As he gave me Fan Edtion to me, telling me this is so meaningful to his team. When I asked aboth LED cover, he said "Although this Fan Edition's internel parts are mostly newly build, instead of using 7 parts, It still can use Note 7 LED flipcover and battery pack - but intentionally blocked the usage of note 7 accessaries softwarely. Therefore it's function is intact, just disabled."
He later also gave me note7 LED cover and battery cover as somebody would already managed to restored it. But I'm suprised most of XDA users didn't even try so, thinking it's hardware problem.
So we can say note 7 battery pack is in fact working, but soon blocked by system when it finishes acknoledging where the wave is comming from - which means it can be unlocked, alongside with all note 7 accesaries.
Therefore I'm asking you guys, to find the blockcade and restore it's functions. If it's not hardware issue - why not? If you can edit kernel or porting(like arter97 or topjohnwu), even completely re-building custom android from AOPS, I'm sure someday, someone will make it working. Just like magisk eventually showed up and saved us from root detections.
P.S. I know you'll never find this post, but, thanks for all that hard works, dad. Congraturation for graduating from 25-year-long development post. You really did something to your Samsung electronics. I wish you could stop overworking just for few days and have time with us..
