Galaxy Note 3 4.4.2 Kit Kat update

[jermss]

this also happened to me quite a few times too, even in the middle of a call.

the worst part is, after the sim card remove prompt, my phone managed to get 4G connection back. BUT since there is only restart option, you are not able to cancel :'(

have to restart the bloody phone all over

yes.. there is no way pass this but to press restart... its really annoying.

Has the latest firmware solve the problem with 3rd party casing such as slim armor view?

not on note 3. I kena that on my Note 8 last time. something to do with cwm nandroid with multi user enabled. how u got yours?

You are another one, please see my previous discussions with Lucky123.

I hope that there is some patch which fixes this to come out soon.

Seems like the common factor is Singtel. That is why I guess the built in instruction in the Note 3 Rom to auto create and save the Singtel wireless SG APs in the Wifi database whenever you do a power cycle might be causing problem with certain batch of MB when updated with KK. You can try it by doing a power cycle after encountering the deletion problem and see if 2 Singtel wireless sg APs are automatically created in the wifi list.

Now my new mb is those generic ones which does not carry any telco instruction in its Rom. So I guess even if I update to KK the problem should to appear again. But I am not taking any chances, enough of factory reset already.

I got it when I tried to upgrade to KitKat :/
I reflashed a few times... and with each flash, it creates such a folder

I'm using Note 3. Knox voided liao. Now using Omega with N2 Kernel. Got issues with Wifi.

One of my friend sent his overheated Note 3 to repair.

New firmware you mean? Cross fingers.

can't say is really new firmware, rather than it is just a patch ba... i.e minor fix...

WiFi Password Reset Issue / G.Note 3 + KK 4.4.2

Update 2:

- So I called SingTel to inform them of this issue. After a wasted 30 minutes on the phone, confirm to me this is a "phone issue" which must be addressed by Samsung. Thanks for nothing.

- Go to Samsung Service Center. They claim this is a "software" issue, not a hardware issue and want to reset my software (which, frankly, I can simply do myself -- unless there is some diagnostic test I am unaware of or if there is some other Samsung-SingTel software patch that they have that I am unaware of -- none of which seems to be the case -- please correct me if I am wrong.)

I would like to get a running idea of how many others are experiencing this issue so that we can get SingTel / Samsung to issue an update. I hate having to reset my phone or swap out the Motherboard just to find out that this issue is not resolved.

Why did u go singtel in the first place?

I'm using singtel and using xsp code. No sucb problem for me. If its really SIN version having this fault, then you should go samsung whattt.. hahas

I didn't "go" to SingTel, I merely called them up.

The reason is simply because from what I can deduce from this thread, this issue is effecting SingTel customers. I thought perhaps that they had some kind of solution or patch to address this issue.

man. having a string of issues with my Note3's upgrade to KitKat

(1) Titanium Backup
I am trying to restore a System App (Google Drive) but TiB seems to be stuck at Restoring App...
It works once I restart though - like the app gets magically restored.
What am I supposed to do?

(2) Google Drive + QuickOffice
I remember being able to access Google Drive from QuickOffice without having Google Drive installed. Seems like this is no longer the case - anyone knows why or when it happened?

(3) QuickOffice
Cannot create folder - constantly getting the "Failed to Create Folder" error..

(4) Roboto Condensed Font
installed the apk... but the font does not seem to apply to all apps and system settings...

any ideas?

Still holding on to my rooted JB firmware

I see that most of the posts in this thread are issues and complaints after upgrading to KK.

Hope Samsung take note of this issues and comes up with a very good patch.

I'd rather stick to my rooted JB for the meantime, no issues so far.

Tell Samsung on on 23 Feb someone got his Note 3 ,with precisely the same problem, reset in Marina Square service centre. One day later problem returned. The same Note 3 was sent in on 27 Feb to the same service centre and no one could diagnose the problem but after a request or rather forced request, mb was replaced and collected next day. New mb with JB works fine and noticed no more Singtel auto wifi/wireless sg created in the wifi list. Yes seems like software issue then they got to tell us what problem otherwise how do we know? There are 3 known cases here and perhaps more if others choose to ignore or go direct them.
Samsung told me to maybe wait for next firmware upgrade then monitor. I told them Sorry, if they don't even know what is the problem, what makes them think that the problem will be solved. I chose the faster and safer way. No time to argue such thing with them, i got better things to do.

is it me or does 4.4.2 creates some lag in the Home/Power button to wake screen?
