Warning / FYI / PSA SPRINT 4.4.2 OTA - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Both myself and a coworker installed the Sprint 4.4.2 ota. After the first boot you will get a dialog that says Android update complete. .. When you click ok there is a second dialog Device Update Complete that disappears. At this point, finger touches would not register on the device and you could not use the screen.
The fix... use the s-pen. It will still work. Reboot one more time and you will be able to hit the ok on Device update complete and all will be well.

I had this issue too. I just held down my power button for a few seconds to let it reboot. Worked as well to clear the unusable screen issue.

[Q ]When go in sleep = reboot

Hello
sorry for my english.
When I'm not plugin with the usb power connected, I've got a stranger behaviour very disturbing.
When my device goes itself or by on/off push buttons in sleep, automatically it reboot itself.
So, if I let him alone, the battery fall down very quickly, and I have to wait the rebooting before to use it.
I've read something which could help me here, but not enought : "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1184852"
. Do you think, it could come from Avast?
. I tried different ROM official and no unficial, sill the same. The thing strange, and after a official instal, the behaviours has desapear until i reboot.
Archos 80 Gen 9

In advance thank you.
A first solution : airplane mode
Bonjour,
I've found this solution http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=74&t=53186
Put your device in airplane mode. Go in sleep (black screen). Push the ON button. Remove airplane mode. It's working! I don't know why?
It's not efficient for me. I have to know why, and how to solve it!
If you restart your device, and the WIFI was activated, you have to do it again.
Let's see what happen in the few day.
It has worked only one time.
In fact, if I let Avast make a scan or i let a music player, every thing is all right.
I do not understand what's happen....
decrase the Brightness
Nop
Thanks you for this answer but it didn't work. I decrease the brightness but same behaviour.
Mine has done the same thing. It's annoying. Just won't wake up, have to reboot. On newest FW too.

Your issue is different. You have used Paul's root method and done nothing afterwards, see my thread

Mine's bone stock. Haven't done anything to it yet besides the factory firmware update. Was about to start rooting it, but haven't yet. About to hit up your thread to get that going. I DID have it airplane mode today, as I was on an airplane, hit the button, came right up. There's something to that...
Add
Thanks
To add some information -
I have done your procedure : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1456875
. Step 1: Gain temp root - OK Every works corectly (I only used the original post from Paul's root)
. Step 2: Enable SDE and Permanently root your tablet I do not did the last step below :
15. Turn off your device again and boot back into recovery
16. Select Developer Menu > Remove android Kernel
17. Accept warnings (MEDIA & APPS WILL BE UNAFFECTED)
18. Reboot. Your device will now boot the rooted edition every time

. Other thing, my archos do not seam to be rooted : When I'm trying to use titanium, it explain that it should be not rooted.
I've changed the method to the right one. Check my thread

No
I tried 3 times. but still the same behaviour.
After a reboot or after that I install a appli, same behaviour. Very supprising.
Do you have any idea?
Cool
Trop bien!
It seams that the v 3.2.80
which have this correction : Hard drive based products: avoid suspend/resume issues happening sometimes
correct effectively those wrong behaviour.
I will confirm you next week that it's "SOLVED"
I'm trying this update tonight!
I like this tablet, except the damn sleep of death, which I JUST had to go through to boot it up to check the firmware version. If that gets fixed, I can permanently replace my Acer A100. It is the most annoying thing about this tablet. I do have a 250gb G80. Hope this does it.
So far so good, wakes right up. Need to let it sit for a bit and let it idle awhile.

Some very useful help for sortware OTA update!!!!

I like to share a very useful trick to everyone who use the jetstream with non AT&T sim.but want to update the firmware over the air.
HTC was only allowed update over the air if you use at&t sim and you have a data plan on it but with this trick you can bypass the restriction and use the ota firmware upgrade service like any unbranded, sim free htc device.
First you need to download quick system info pro app from market. Launch the app.
Scroll down and click to more info.
After that the hidden factory "about tablet" menu will appear and at the top you can see the software update. Tap on it and tap to search for updates right now.
Do not thick and turn on the scheduled update scan.
I attach some pictures.

Please use wifi connection. Ota update need wifi connection.

Please share if you can successfully update your device with this method. I hope someone can confirm this to work caus my device have the latest firmware and the update check says no available update.

I confirm its working! at least i tried and it worked for me.
I downloaded the application from the market.
I opened it and went to more info. and the software update was there.
I pressed on software update (while i was on Wifi with Orange SIM card) and then pressed "check now"
I was connected via wifi and the check towards at&t server was done.
Got a message that my device is update to the latest and no new update was found.
Well Done!
A good useful way to get future update without AT&T SIM.

Dito everything you said in your post. Same with the Jetstream here and hopefully the update will appear at some point to update my unit.
Followed the instructions and received an update to software number 1.30.502.1
Thanks for the tip.
Interesting... yesterday it said no update. Today, though, it said there was and the unit updated to the latest ROM. HUGE thanks for the tip!!!!
Hi,
I tried these instructions for updating my htc jetstream. It did show that a new version available, etc and even downloaded the necessary files. However, while updating, the screen went balnk, then it shows the android bot with a front panel open and a RED EXCLAMATION MARK - the type that would mean some problem encountered. I thought it might be a part of the update process. Have left it as it is and there has been no change since the past 15-20 minutes. Did anyone face this problem? Also, how long did it take actually to update the software?
Please help ASAP.
Screen shots attached..
No problem. Try to update your device with official ruu

It was stuck on that screen for over an hour. So I connected it to the comp, used adb reboot bootloader as it recognised the device connected, did a factory reset and it worked finally. Though the update has not yet been applied. Will leave it for now and will try it again after some exams I got till the 1st of March.
Thanks anyways for the help.

Yes the update has various reboots, blank screen moments, etc yet never had that screen image like yours. The update takes about 15 minutes.

Guess must be some problem because it was stuck on that screen for around an hour. I must have done something wrong or something. In any case, reserved the update for a later-after my exams are done.
Thanks to all for the help.
So this method is successful? Can anyone update his device with this ota update?
I hope I helped a lot of you with this.

[Q] "Software Update" button not working

There are no software updates, so perhaps that is the reason it doesn't do anything?

Possibly; but when I used to press the button it took me to a page that told me that there are no updates available. Now it doesn't respond to a press at all. It also has an exclamation point next to it...

Are you on stock ROM? Did you freeze or uninstall anything related to updates?
Apparently I did freeze an app called AT&T software update. I tried to reactivate it to no avail; all through titanium. It just tells me that it is restoring it but it never does. The circle thing just goes around in circles and it never times out. I let it run all night last night and it didn't work. Do you think I need to do a hard reset and re-root my phone?

[Q] "sorry, couldn't connect to SessionM" toast text pop up

Just in the past few days I've been getting a toast text pop up in the middle of the screen saying that it couldn't connect to SessionM. I don't know what this is and how it started, but it just happened right now as I'm typing this message on my phone. I tried taking a screenshot but it goes away too fast. The only thing I can think of is that this started happening after the newest SuperSU update.
Anyone have any tips on troubleshooting this?

I am having the same issue on CyanogenMod 11 (4.4.2) galaxy s4. Any fixes for this?
Have you tried factory reset? It could be anything. Bug in a app.. bug in a update for a app. Corrupted data.

Just to update this thread: I never ended up doing anything and the problem simply stopped. It only happened one or two more times since I made this thread and it hasn't happened for months now.

[Q] SG Fit infinite reboot loop...

Good afternoon all...
I bought this for my wife and she loves it.. Thanks for all the information on the forums.
Unfortunately, she is having a problem and as this is the smartest group of people I know, I thought I would ask here about the issue she is having.
It seems that the Gear Fit is in an infinite reboot loop. I've tried holding the power button to turn it off, but nothing I can do has caused it to break its reboot loop. I'm hoping the people here that are smarter than myself can assist before I have to return the device and start over. I'm afraid I may have to do that anyway, but nothing ventured, nothing gained, correct?
Have a great day all!

won't stop
Hi All,
The rebooting loop won't stop for me. I am able to follow the attachment - 5 clicks of button when it shows "rebooting" and then select download. then it's just stuck in downloading. if I long press on button it will shut down but sometimes it comes back on by itself, or stay off. I fully charged it, left it off for a long while and try to start again, just goes back to rebooting loop.
The download option doesn't work for me either, it always goes back to the boot loop. Did anyone find another solution yet?
Flash a firmware upgrade with odin.

The firmware flash with Odin worked for me.
I have had my gear fit for 2 days amd love it.. BUT here i am on day 3 and it keeps rebooting for no reason. Not a loop just every so often it will just reboot. As the day goes on it seems to be doing it more and more.. is it defective? Anyway to fix it without flashing it. I dont think flashing is a good idea what am i going to have to reflash it every other day. .
Fit Reboot
I've had my fit for about a month and yesterday it started rebooting, and was stuck in a reboot loop.
Here's what worked for me.
Both my wife and I have a fit, so I changed the name of mine
1. I powered the fit off, went into the GearFit Manager app on my phone and change the name back to it's default name.
2. Powered the fit on, it took a couple of times, but it came up with a screen telling me to install the GearFit Manager app on my mobile device. It's already installed.
3. From the GreatFit app on my phone I clicked on "Paired Device", then clicked on "Connect"
4. My Fit connected to my phone and stopped rebooting
Once the Fit was connected it stopped rebooting and I found I had to setup a few thing again, wallpaper, clock, and a few others.
For my situation it looks like renaming the device back to default was to key. Hope this helps
Go Fit
I can't get my Fit to enter download mode. The scene to put it in download mode appears, but no matter which option I highlight, the Fit returns to the bootloop. Help?
