hiee is there any way to get the samsung dive enable on our devices/????
http://v2.samsungdive.com/help/guideRemoteControls.do
it helps ur to locate the phone , manage the phone , remote controll the phone feature...
it works with the international GALAXY NOTE...
isnt there any way to get it on OUR DEVICE???
i dont understand why att removed it!
i used to have internation GSII, samsung dive is build in!
HTC has the same service for their phones. And, before anyone yells at me, so do a lot of others. And there are apps in the Play Store that do this. Anyway, it looks pretty cool. I wonder if it can be added via an apk or something. Good find, OP.
Edit: So, I just registered. I don't have my Note yet. Do we need additional software of is it as simple as marking the checkbox in the Security section on the phone?
I would love to get this working on our devices as well...
-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke
Well, I got my Note today and I see no way to enable the Remote Support. So, it looks like it can't be done unless maybe we use a ROM that has that setting. Everything else seems good. It's just that setting, which is related to an API.
Try SeekDroid, seems better than Dive

Cerberus does everything Samsung Dive does and then some. Plus, you're not limited to just a Samsung device. It's every bit worth the price.
Try this app. It works for all phones and laptops. www.preyproject.com.
Download the app from the play store, ( Pray Anti-Theft) and set your devices on-line via the link above.

This functionality is included in the phone - but why do very few people realise it exists?
In summary: Samsung have functionality built in to the phone that works with their www.Samsungdive.com website that provides free phone locate & remote wipe services.
When you initially configure the phone, you may have entered some details for your Samsung account and then forgotten about it. Log in to Samsungdive with these credentials and the functionality is there for you to use.
Apart from the fact that nothing needs to be installed on the phone to get it to work; the service is free and it's also the only such-application I've tried that actually remotely enables GPS to make location much more accurate. I haven't tried the remote wipe, but the lock and locate functionality work well.

I always use Samsung Dive to spy on my wife's exact whereabouts and who she makes phone calls to.
It was me who bought her the phone, did the registration to Samsung dive, and did all the rooting and modding for her.
She doesn't even know the existence of Samsung dive. In fact, she can't even tell the difference between IPhone4 and SII. I just told her that she's using a slightly larger version of IPhone4.

I know the posts are out there. This was a public service announcement to let other know about this very nice (and free!) functionality.
I learned about the existence of Samsungdive by seeing a reference to it in XDA. Hey, maybe it was the post you provided the link to above!
Anyway, for those of you who don't know what this is or haven't used it yet, I'd go so far as to say that it is an essential requirement for some of the following reasons:
If you leave your phone lying around somewhere in the house you can use it to locate it - even if the sound is switched off!
You can give your nearest and dearest the login details of your Samsungdive account and allow them to see where you are at any time
You can track your phone if it is stolen:
If your phone is stolen, you can lock it, get a message diaplayed on the screen and cause it to ring - again, regardless of whether the sound is switched on or not
You can remotely wipe your phone
Give it a go!
You got me wrong mate .
I just thought you might like to make use of that post expand your post and submit it for a sticky .

THAT is NOT nice !
But maybe she knows more about Androids than she makes believe and always leaves the phone in an appropriate place ............
Has anybody tried to activate Samsung Dive on their Note? I created the Samsung account but I don't see any options to activate the remote control settings on the note, even though it says in Samsung's site that the options will be enabled automatically when the Samsung account is created.
http://www.samsungdive.com/DiveMain.do
I got to the samsung site logged in, but then to add my phone, nothing happens.
It will not let me register my phone.

The feature has been removed from the AT&T version just like SGS2 did.

Don't thank me. Thank AT&T for it
To be honest, the feature doesn't work very well even for non-AT&T versions. I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 wi-fi and I was never able to let DIVE find my tab at all. Another crapy buggy feature from Samsung.

That's what i meant, Thanks At&t...
I came from a windows phone, and microsoft has that feature enabled for all their phones just by going to windowsphone.com and signing in with your live id. and before that, on windows mobile, i had my phone setup with creeper and it got stolen and i wiped it remotely but before i wiped it, i sent it a couple texts telling the thief where he was and that if he didn't return it i was going to call the police. the next morning the phone was sitting on my desk...
I used that Windows phone feature to locate/spy on my kids iDevices have the similar functionality. Not sure why Google left this one out?
DIVE was left out of the i-717 because AT&T offers their own called Mobile Locate and surprise...they charge for it! It is an add-on to the phone insurance.
My Samsung Galaxy Note™ is smarter than your Honor Student.
Well Lookout could be an alternative.

Really, no love Cerberus?
You can snap pictures from the website control panel with the phone's front camera and have them emailed to you, or record audio from the mic and send that.
You can make it so any SIM put in the phone that isn't the current SIM will only call a phone number you specify.
You can wipe whatever you want from remotely and track the exact location of your phone at all times.
It is AMAZING!

i looked at it but for a reason i can't recall, i went with the "Where's My Droid" app instead.
wish i read this thread earlier, woulda saved me from registering at Samsung's lame Dive site...
I saw Cerberus on Twit.tv and think it is a great option. I'd love to know if any of you Note folks tried it. I don't have a Note... yet.
Cerberus is one of the first things I install on a new phone. If you are rooted you can install it into the rom and it will survive factory reset. It blows away anything else out there right now. You can record audio, video, have it call a number, take a picture, snap a screenshot. Remote lock / wipe. It is just amazing.

It's not free, though, and Samsung Dive is free for the lucky ones that can run it. I wonder if there is a way to force it on the phone (mine is rooted)

im testing out the free trial on Cerberus now, where are the photos and video stored?
I created this thread for people who do not have their phones rooted.
I am downloading the OTA currently and can't wait to discuss the pros and cons about this update compared to Jelly Bean.
The OTA was indeed 4.4.2
I am loving the notification bar being all white. It will take more time to comment on any other features.
"Google Camera" is a must if you are on Kit Kat and you like bokeh effects (someone's face or a specific item that is in focus and everything else out of focus). The effect is more profound if the background items that are out of focus are far away.
I mention Google Camera because you have to have Kit Kat to install it.
Can you test FoxFi to make sure it works on the update?

I have never used it before but I will download it when I get home and see if I can get my 3ds to connect through it...I also have a 10.1 tablet at home I will try it on as well.
I am on the share everything plan so hotspot is free for me...I have never used it though.
I went to Foxfi's website and they list kit Kat on the Note 3 as a workable device.
http://pdanet.co/help/devices.php
I really want to hear about battery life before making the plunge. If anyone can throw some stats up in a few days after a couple cycles I would greatly appreciate it :good:
I went to activate foxfi but in the end it wanted me to turn on mobile hotspot from settings....seeing how I am on a share everything plan I am able to have free mobile hotspot. Therefore I can't verify if foxfi works or not...the play store app lists that it does on the Note 3 and the foxfi website says that it does on the Note 3.
The foxfi app had me make a pin to unlock my phone...now even after uninstalling foxfi I can't remove the pin security. The option to choose none is shaded and I am unable to choose none. Uhg!!!

Go under Settings - Security and at the bottom Clear Credentials to remove all certificates should fix that.

Mine didn't change either...I didn't know anything about the new one until I just read about it...I want it!
So now that Note 3 and other Verizon phones starting to get 4.4. Do you think we will see tap-n-pay Google Wallet ever? Or you think that will still be forever blocked on non-rooted/stock Verizon phones?
Are there new radios or is the signal strength any better in 4.4?
Verizon setup ISIS on my Note 3 at the time of my purchase. The first time I tried to use it, I didn't realize that I hadn't added the American Express Serve card (with the $25 free money added). The second time I tried to use it I couldn't get it to work...However, S-beam was off and now I keep it on. Both times above I gave up and paid with my card...so I am still waiting to try it for the first time.
As far as Google Wallet goes...I just downloaded the app from the Play Store. I will mess around with it after work to see how I can get it to work. Already though it tells me about the most recent purchases I have done with Google even the free ones.

There is a certain section on my way home that I always lose signal if I am talking to someone...it has been the same with the Incredible 2, galaxy S3, LG G2 and the Galaxy Note 3 before Kit Kat.. I will respond to your question after about a week of going home after work. I expect it to be the same though.
Is your Note 3 worst than other phones you have had?
I'm curious about the battery life. My battery life is outstanding on my Note 3 on 4.3... Hoping KK is the same. Haven't taken the plunge yet.. Still reading feedback.

By far. My HTC Thunderbolt had decent reception after it got a couple updates.
At work I'll be sitting right next to guys with other phones on verzion(Note 2, S4, motos) and they all get way better signal than the few of us that have the note 3.
Battery life...ehhh. I keep my phone plugged in at work so the weekend will be the true test for that. I keep Bluetooth, GPS and Wi-Fi on at all times.
Hi guys.
First of all, I have searched the forum, and also used google, but most of info is not fresh and is not really complete. So please excuse me in advance if I"m asking a question that is partially asked before.
And Please before you reply, I ask you even, I beg you please only reply if you have a constructive informative things to say. Please dont come with sarcasm etc... This is a very serious thing for me.
My project :
Have a android phone for only 1 APP and with Only VPN / TOR connection. So Basicly imagine a android phone that has only 1 app. When that app is in use, communicating it comunicates true vpn maybe TOR.
This phone will not be used for anything alse. Only 1 APP. The APP is a VOIP app, so it will make calls true a external server. The internet will be on the simcard, simcard will be used wich has no Telephony services but only internet services on it. So it must be really basic, not to cheap not to expensive. No other apps will be used. Actually if possible all apps will be removed. and will be locked down, so you can only start, unlock, start app call / recieve calls. turn of.
Now, the Questions
1. What is the most Secure Android ROM, that would work on most / many android phones.
1.1. I want to LOCK the rom / android completely after install and setup settings, sothat nobody can install anything anymore.
1.2. The rom must be light, sothat it's fast and also not to heavy on the battery.
1.3. Posibilities to add extra options like self distruct if 3 times wrong unlock code is entered, like Iphone.
2. What phone would you recommend to do this job, Please keep in mind, it should be not to small, sothat it's nice to use. sits nice in the hand of a grownup person.
Nobody ?
So... No reply at all ))
I did a little research, found out i can strip down the firmware, just build it / rebuild it from source or just make some edition, I'd still like to hear / read some advice about wich phone model to take.
If you are gonna build from source then your best option is a nexus. Other wise you will end up having issues with device trees and kernel source.
As for locking it down well that's another matter. As long as they could get access to the device there is more way to stop them completely.

Thanks for your reply / info.
for the lockdown, it's more like anti kids lockdown, sothat users cannot install just what ever they want. But I think it will be more advanced than that.
I'm planing to make a clean, light, firmwar that will :
1. have only 2 ways of comunicated. 1. Secure VOIP 2. secure chat system like tox or something.
2. will comunicate only true VPN or TOR
3. Will be locked down after initial setup. meanin will not be possible to install anything, just set options like wifi etc... no apstores.
4. Will have self distruct software, that counts how many times wron pin / screen unlock is done, if more then 2-3 will completely wipe itself to empty device.
5. by default camera, gps, proximity, will be absent, so will be removed in ROM, so will be really not functional.
sofar
tomorrow will search for a nexus.
thanks for your advice again.

Well that depends on where you want to start. You can get an older nexus where all the code is pretty much there for stuff and learn that way. Or get a newer one where things are still being changed around. Let me give you one warning. With ever yearly android release you pretty much have to rebate everything you did and start from square one.

Thanks for all advise, info.
I have done first tests, went with basic samsungs. s4 mini, have installed edited cyanogen, all tests went well, now testing self distruct mechanism.
Hi all,
I post here because there is no specific section for Samsung Galaxy A31 SM-A315G.
I am looking for something better than Google Find My Device or Samsung Find My Phone, Google's option is really bad and Samsungs are even worse.
If I go in https://www.google.com/android/find?u=1 and try to track the phone its always behind 2-3 hours, and that is really stupid if the phone is stolen, which has happened once and it was lost another time.
This stupidity even if the phone is right next to me or a few meters away.
Samsungs option can't even locate the phone correctly or show a proper map.
Is there anything better, I already tried Where's My Droid.
I live in the Philippines and my Girlfriend keep loosing her phone or can't find where she put it, last day she forgot it in the shop, and a co-worker said she would bring it back, but at 10pm still nothing so I tried tracking it with above mentioned results. The phone were returned next day, but I really need something better.
So can you suggest something that will lead me straight to the phone if stolen again?
Or how to get Google Find My Device to work as it should and Google claim.
With kind regards
Jan
