    GN3 Bluetooth/GPS Issue

    Disregard, I figured out the problem. I use ARUnchained to connect to my new HU which works fairly well. I also had the ARUnchained GPS Injection app installed on my phone. That was the culprit. I disabled it and now all is right in the Bluetooth/GPS world! LOL! Thanks anyway!

    launchers

    I use the Nova Pro launcher with my GN3. The only issue I've had is that it froze up a couple of times while I was going through the settings. A reboot fixed it. Otherwise it works well. I haven't looked at numbers, but I think it actually increased my battery life.

    'Your Device Has Been Modified'... Please HELP

    You didn't say who your carrier is or your phone model or even if it's booting properly. You'd have better luck with some help if you gave more info...just sayin'. ;)

    Verizon Messages or Textra SMS - which is better replacement for stock SMS (Verizon) ?

    I tried Verizon's offering, I wasn't too awfully impressed. Besides, I already pay Verizon too much as it is. I use the stock app. Free is your friend.

    Odin Says Pass, But No TWRP (PLEASE Help!)

    I rooted using Towelroot (make sure you have the latest version). Install, open, click on "Make it Ra1n", reboot. But I don't believe your problem is a result of rooting. I'm no guru by any stretch of the imagination, surely someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds to me like you...

    kit kat su__ks!

    I reset my phone after upgrading and have excellent battery life with or without GPS. Like others, I didn't want to go to that extreme, but since I keep my phone backed up it wasn't a huge ordeal. Just might be worth the trouble. :)

    Are you still really happy with your Note 3?

    I've had my GN3 for almost a year and still love it. Wouldn't trade it for anything but a GN4!!! LOL!!!

    Just bought this USB 3.0 charging cable.

    I've read many times that a cable is a cable is a cable and not to waste your money on that "high speed", super duper wonder cable. So far, I've saved quite a bit of money on my cheap, eBay cables and am rarely disappointed. Just some food for thought. :cool:

    Stock messaging app

    I know you're looking for alternatives, but I actually like the stock app. I haven't had any issues whatsoever.

    Should i wait for the note 4 or get the note 3 now?

    You do know that the GN4 is even bigger than the GN3, right?

    Will ROOTing my phone void my warranty if I do not add a custom ROM?

    Something I found to back up Harry's statements. For what it's worth, your mileage may vary: Your Warranty is Not Void - XDA TV - xda-developersxda-developers

    Sprint galaxy note 3 battery drain

    I've read multiple times that a factory reset may, indeed, improve battery life after the KK update. This has been addressed quite a bit, but have you tried any battery monitoring apps to see why your batt performance is not up to par? I like and use GSam, but there are others.
