Hi
haw are you
I have a note 4 N910C , the phone works good but when i turn on the internet he became very hot specially in the screen , there is overheating in the screen after using the internet only otherwise he's good , i was using android 5 and i updated it to 6 and the problem still happened .
It seems that you have low signal from your operator, this causes the phone to heat while it's trying to communicate.
the signal is very good , it's H+

Since upgrading to KitKat (4.4.2) using the Google factory image and the flash-all I have had horrendous battery life. I've gone from 24-36 hours of battery to about 5-6 hours and I'm a fairly minimal user.
The drain seems to be coming from Android OS, in particular the Keep Awake is often 1-3 hours. After reading about others with the problem I did a factory reset and this seemed to resolve the issue but it's come back again. It's funny because it's fine at home, I've gone most of Christmas with no problems. Then I've come back to work and straight away my battery is getting kaned again.
I can't look for wakelocks because I'm not rooted and don't want to root. However I've tried experimenting by turning off location services, turning off wifi, and finally I've turned data off and this has done the trick. I'm wondering if it is something to do with 3g because I don't have any problem when on wifi at home.
The only thing I'm wondering is if I've got the right version of the radio, I had some problems when I was flashing so I did it again, everything seems fine but is there any way to tell if I've got the right radio rom?
Thanks in advance
Nick.
If you're data signal is weak it would use more power then say a good signal. Try using 2g only and see if that's any better.
How did you flash via adb I presume or OTA . Did you not flash the latest radio.
The end of your baseband number in settings will tell you what radical you're on , latest I believe is 98.

Thanks for suggestion but where I am sat has excellent signal (green in the mobile network signal under battery stats), I'm in the city centre sat in exactly the same spot I have been in for the last 18 months. This only started happening immediately after the 'upgrade' to KitKat.
I flashed using adb with the phone in fastboot. I did it like this to get a clean install because I've previously rooted the phone and I was having issues with the OTA update.
My baseband version is M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.98, is this correct?
As I've said previously I do not wish to root the phone again. It's possible this is not necessarily 3g, it might just be one of the apps having a wakelock but it becomes more evident on a 3g connection.
Is there any way I can get to the bottom of a wakelock on KitKat witout root?
The best way would probably be to uninstall each app one by one until you find the culprit , without root thought any game progress e.t.c will be lost unless it can be saved.
Checking only the apps that require data like Facebook e.t.c. will speed things up a bit.
Is anything showing under the inbuilt battery app ?.
Sorry but that's all I can think of , maybe someone with more knowledge can help. J

This was a problem for me when when stocked and unrooted, and without root you can not determine the real problem because battery stats will not be detailed enough. But problem is probably msm_hsic_host or something like that which is consume battery when phone is in sleep and even data is off. Actually some app is requesting data (which is off) and 3g modem keeps phone awake. My advice will be, fully charge your phone, from setting select 2g connection, data disabled(auto sync also), reboot your phone if battery is lower than %100 charge again and use it or do this before bed and sleep . Your problem would be solved for this condition. Some say google adressed this issue in 4.3 and 4.4 but I think it is still there for some reasons. BTW use 3g network only for internet otherwise it is just a battery drain, you gain nothing in terms of talk quality(and swithching between 2g and 3g is really painful). I solve my problem by rooting and install xposed framework and install gravity box and use status bar switches to change between 2g and 3g and believe me it is wonderful(no ART unfortunately). I know I talked too much but mai problem is probably 3g modem and you need root to solve it

Bende de var vallahi aynı sorun ama 2gde ve kernelliyim.Dur bir soriyim yabancılar.
İ have the same issue too,only with some minor differences,such as im always using 2g,im rooted,at the stock rom and also have a franco kernel installed on N4.What can i do sometimes?
4636v2 app from the play store will allow you to switch 2g / 3g without root. In fact there's quite a few apps that do that no need for exposed or root if that's the way you want to go.

Hi all,
I'm on 4.4.2 (Singapore NC2) and I keep losing my GPS signal. No different from any of the other 4.4.2 ROMs I tried (all stock Samsung, initially not rooted but now I am)
I've tried:
- Turn off data (as someone suggested the Note 3 loses GPS when data changes from HSPA to 4G and back)
- rebooted
- Shut down the phone, take battery out and wait a few minutes before rebooting
- cleared the cache
- all sorts of location modes
, turned off wireless and bluetooth
- installed gps status and toolbox (another suggestion)
- full wipe and reinstall all apps
Things I have not tried
- wipe again (but I don't want to keep wiping to get GPS working)
- break the piece of sh1t in half
Is there any way to make this pile of [email protected] work. This is seriously THE worst GPS I had since the original Galaxy S (the S1).
I could not honestly say whether it was any better or worse before the upgrade as I got it two weeks ago and immediately upgraded to 4.4.2
Somehow, after I upgraded to NC2 it was fine but this afternoon it was absolute hell and took all the self control I had NOT to open the window and throw the POS out.
Any suggestions would be greatly(!) appreciated.
TIA

to be frank, wifi/data/blututh has nothing to do with the GPS. Mine is working well, has never disconnected when I needed (especially when I m driving)
have u tried to test ur gps ? u can use gps test to see how fast it is to lock a satelite, how many satelite detected, how strong is ur gps signal.
then you will know whether your gps got problem or not.
By any chance ur using aluminum casing? With it NFC won't work and very weak GPS signals.

Thanks, I know none of these should matter when it comes GPS except data and obviously the phone can scan for Wi-Fi networks to get an initial position.
When the phone gets a lock it usually does so within seconds and I've compared signal strength with an S4 and it's give or take the same.
Still, the Note lost the signal without moving, got it back only to lose it again and so on......absolute nightmare trying to navigate with it. I'll check it again today.
I have no case on it, it just sits in a Brodit holder.
It seems ok this morning.....I'll just keep an eye on it.
EDIT: Was OK for most of the morning while driving. However, this afternoon, after some playing some games, I took it for a drive again and GPS went all ballistic. I wonder whether it's a heat problem. I have another Note 3, also KitKat but different version, not rooted and when I put them both next to each other on a table they both intermittently lost GPS without being moved around....very strange.
Never had this issue... Mine only looses signal when i'm in a parking garage, on the tube or in between several high concrete buildings. But that's elementary physics, not a hardware defect.
Have you tried another GPS app?

Thanks, I've tried a few including GPS testing apps. Are you on 4.3 or 4.4.2?
I've also had the two Note 3, a SGS3 and Note 10.1 (2014 LTE so also Snapdragon 800) next to each other on a table outside. The SGS showed a rather consistent view of 6 to 7 satellites while the Notes (all three) had their satellite readings go up and down. However, ONLY the Note 3s lost the signal. It looks something like this: Has 8 to 10 sats in view, suddenly drops four, then another 3, then it's dead and then it seems to restart......and it's good again. This is all without the phones/tablet being moved or touched.
Mine does it as well rooted and before unrooted! Could be hardware although it's not as bad on Google maps more on waze!

4.4.2, NB7.
I'll test. Note that I'm inside a newly build concrete building between several servers and computers, and below 7 floors filled with people. (It's a hotel.)
Start: 22 in view.
10 sec: In use: 6. Accuracy: 60 meters
25 sec: In use: 9, Accuracy: 10 meters.
MapsWithMe and Google maps drop me in the wrong part of the building, but the readings remain consistent after it has sucessfully located me. Even when I'm walking down the hall it accuratelly follows me without skipping.
(It still thinks I'm doing it in the wrong part of the complex, but no connection is lost. Could be worse, most apps' locationservices still think I'm somewhere in the arse-end of nowhere in Eastern Europe. Dear Phone, I've seen enough of Serbia to say I wasn't impressed. I have no intention to stay. )
Mobile data on/off makes no difference, WiFi is off.
Is it relevant to mention that I'm in western Europe? Might be, for the number of sats.

Thanks for the test. I've been on NB7 (BTU). THis is when I first noticed the problem, the day after I got the Note 3.
All I can say is that it's fine again now. Something triggers the problem and once it's messed up it stays that way until I shut the phone down AND take the battery out for half a minute or so. A simple shut down and restart after a few seconds does not seem to help.
No clue whether this is related to there not being an Australian 4.4.2 ROM although I would have though Singapore would be close enough.....geographically.
I'm indoors at the moment and it has 13 satellites in use with 36ft (about 10m) accuracy and has been stable for the last 15 minutes. When it's screwed then I don't get a lock for longer than a minute or two. I'll just keep playing with it and if I can't fix it at all it's going to a better place
Thanks
I have the same problem. I'm on 3uk network and have to have a booster box for my phone at home as there is no network coverage on any network where I live but sometimes lose signal even with this. With friends, on same network, they have a perfect signal on their phones, none have the Galaxy Note 3 except me and I have have zilch. I didn't have any problems when I first got my phone but approx 9-10 mths later Gps signal totally unreliable. 3 told me the handset would have to be sent back to Samsung but this means I have to be without for, well who knows how long...
I have tried all the same remedies as you, none work. If you come up with any solution PLEASE post it here. thanks.
Hi all!
I just got a unlocked Galaxy S5 yesterday, and so i left my phone charging all night for a perfect first charge. This morning i removed him from charging and started to use him. And so after 2 minutes, the phone went from 100% to 99% almost right away! I got now to 90% with only 20 mins on screen time , i know it's not normal because i already a S5 some months ago and his battery life was perfect as much as my g2 was or even better. Do i have a defective battery or samsung apps running in background just eating up my battery? What you guys recommend me to do? What apps are known on this phone to be battery eater?
Best regards all.
We can't guess what's eating your battery, you'll need to look at the battery usage and/or install something like BetterBatteryStats to find out exactly what it is. Post screen shots for more help as well.
Keep GPS off, Sync off etc.
I keep everything on and I don't lose battery that fast.
I found some things over the web and i disabled samsung push service and link plataform and improved a lot my battery, it's not draining that fast anymore, i think it's normal now.
Now something stange is happening, everytime i check my battery it doesn't even show my screen usage and the top usage is android os... why is this happening? I've already hard reseted my phone and same thing goes.. what can i do? I have lots of samsung stuff disabled same as some google i dont use... should i replace my phone since it's still on the first 14 days??
Best regards all.
my g900f no option LTE network

Good afternoon , a few weeks ago I installed the latest update Kit Kat my life Pure Blu XL (Same phone that the Gionee ) From some time now I have problems :
1- The signal when the phone is turned off and sometimes must restart to regain signal.
2- The battery does not last me anything before last long , now without using it when I see this almost discharged .
3- The screen sometimes when new to on after restarting will not start , or it takes to turn the keys light but does not give the video and lights when you give your given away wins.
If I could help with these problems , the phone is very good but with these problems and brings him to the ground , Many Thanks in advance . .
I have lenovo a6000 1gb model and i have noticed that its signal reception is quite weak as compared to other phones. Even sometimes, when the wifi signal is average, the wifi will disconnect automatically and search for networks for a while and will connect again. This happens randomly and more at times while playing games which need internet. I am using cm13 build 2 by ed300 without any custom kernel.
next update there will be option for no optimization it will increase wifi signal but effect battery while using wifi
Thank you so much sir..you have turned this unusable brick to a fast and fluid phone. I have been using your rom from cm12.1...i must say that your cm 13 much better ..no lags at all.. Just dt2w and s2w causes lock screen freeze i hope you will fix that in next update
And please increase the wifi signal strength ....i dont have any problem with the battery backup in your rom....i get a full day usage and charging completes 0 to 100 in just 90 mins...so please look into the wifi..thanks
What is no optimization ?
I m using ED300 CM 13, what is no optimization ? Can u explain me ?
