Noticed my phone did the same for a few hours after I shut off vzw service but before activating a new T-Mo sim. I had 100% steady LTE signal pre shutoff. Post shutoff, the cell signal bars were constantly switching from E only to 1xRTT and 3G. Phone & cell standby were abnormally high in...

I'm not sure what to make of this but I ended my service with VZWand took my N3 to T Mobile. For some reason, my phone went to pot, once I did so. Now it inexplicably lags, freezes and hangs regularly. Really screwy cuz nothing was changed. Just started lagging after I popped in the T-Mo...

They'd have to really rework the data plan pricing for me to renew the 2yr sans UDP. My monthly tab on a tier plan would be like me buying a new Note 4 at retail with every billing cycle. Posted via Android Central App

Opened a Tumblr page and immediately got redirected to a blank white web page and that window box immeddately popped up, simultaneously. Lookout scan found nothing. Posted via Android Central App

A big red corp. store made you contact Samsung for a replacement cable? I'd have been peeved if they would've pulled that on me. Least they can do is order it. Posted via Android Central App

Had the exact same issue start about 2 weeks after purchase, posted about here a few months ago. It was the USB cable as mentioned by others. They just ordered me a replacement free of charge. Posted via Android Central App

Pull was the wrong word in hindsight. I checked for the OTA, came up as available've in software update over a week ago. It hasn't prompted me to download the update even once since then. It's just been kind of unusual cause it usually pesters and force installs. So it just made me wonder...

Just curious, how many haven't been forced to install yet? I ask cuz it's been available in system update since Day 1 for me but it's never prompted for it yet. I'm not complaining cuz I'll gladly root when it does. I have no desire to lose smooth as silk 4.3 to deal with any of the...

I had a charging issue with mine awhile back. USB 3.0 that came with the phone worked fine for 2 weeks. Then for some reason it wouldn't register it as the default charger and kept making endless notifications about slow charging while it was plugged in. Tossed on a 2.0 and that registered as...

Re: Turn off lte? Hidden menu is either not available on or blocked from dialer access on the Note 3. Unfortunately, it won't work with any 4G/3G toggle widget, either. Not sure why Verizon chose to do this. Posted via Android Central App

How did you get it to work? That app(every other similar app as well) opens then force closes saying Verizon restricted access. I don't know about the situation with it prior to the last update but apparently Verizon has LTE only accesss blocked. I can't even open the hidden menu, now...

I noticed something odd on my phone in Settings>Storage after the update and wondered if anyone else noted this. In Settings>Storage, cached data appears momentarily but completely disappears from view a sec later. *That is not something it did prior to the update. Posted via Android Central App

I know it was meant to address call quality but does anyone know what the hell the connectivity portion was meant to address in the update? Ever since then, browsing over LTE has constantly been hampered by dropped packets loading urls. Never had a hiccup before that. Anyone else seeing...

Hooray, big red got me an oem 3.0 cable on Thurs. So you may wanna dial a CSR or hit a store and see if they can track one down. Forgot to inquire where it came from. She apologized it took so long and said she had a helluva time finding one. It's ridiculous that they released the phone...

Honest to God, I took it into my local VZW to see if it was the phone or charger causing it. They used an employees 3.0 and it worked properly. Plugged a 2.0 and got the notification. So it apparently it's the Sammie 3.0 but I'm not sure what the heck could possibly be wrong w/ it to make...
