Guys, this appears whenever I installed an app from Play Store. Just want to confirm, is this native from the play store? I mean from Google itself? Everyone also having this notification?
*
You finally bought it also. Hehe! Your Z Ultra?

And that notification is first time I seen.

Almost everyone is gonna have this issue.  icon_rolleyes.gif
What I'm trying to say is that's considered as a normal defect. Wait, that's not even considered a defect. That's more to a normal problem where they won't be able to get the phone fix 100% tightly.

It's the same like cars. Even if you buy a new car, it's sure gonna have gaps in between maybe the bumpers or dashboard or somewhere else.

I don't make assumptions based on my dissapointment uncle. I dare say 95% will be affected because it's a normal thing. Tell me if yours is 100% perfect.  icon_rolleyes.gif

I know your disappointment, but please don't simply give figure and spread this nonsense assumption.

Mine is 100% perfect.

I rooted mine yesterday night using chainfire CFroot
I am not concerned about knox issues. For those concerned about warranty issues don't root. I am prepare to pay for any subsequent repair if necessary. So far have no isues on hardware as everything is fine n good.
The moment i bought the phone i have been waiting for root from chainfire.
Phone as usual is performing well without any issues
Used Titanium n got rid of much of the bloatware
For those new to this : rooting will never brick phone. The worst is a failed attempt. It is very safe process. Just make sure you have at least 50% battery charge just in case phone go into continual reboot

QUOTE(weileong @ Oct 3 2013, 08:11 AM)
Did mine as well, Same thought like you, won't be consider the Warranty issue from SME.

Unit working fine...Mobile Odin Pro not supported this device yet.

I will done mine soon when I find it needed. smile.gif The knox things forget it. I don't care. Warranty wise shall be OK for me.

Probably wait another one or 2 firmware out, or wait for development before start rooting. smile.gif

This is what happened after ROOT - note Binary and System status now changed to CUSTOM from Official  and KNOX WARRANT change to 0X1 from 0X0
[attachmentid=3658037]

Before
[attachmentid=3658019]

To root phone :

1. Install first USB phone drivers in PC : Just google in web for Samsung USB phone drivers - plenty of links
2. Download the CF Root file from XDA :Post # 3 at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2466423
3. Copy this zip file to PC and EXtract the zip file in PC
4. From the folder you will see the Odin 1.85 .exe file and the CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar.md5
5. Switch off phone. Boot to download mode - simultaneously press HOME+VOL DOWN+POWER : than select volume UP - you will be in download mode ( screenshot similar to above except you see OFFICIAL n 0X0)
6. Connect phone to PC. Wait short while and allow the PC to detect phone  - you will see installion progress , probably a half minute job
7. Once installation complete, move to the folder where you extracted the zip file
8. RUN Odin.exe
9. DON'T touch any of the default settings. Choose PDA and browse to folder where you extracted the CF Root.tar.md5 file - select it
10. Just press START
11. The root file will be flash and process will complete in less than half a minute
12. Phone will reboot and now is rooted

Thanks a lot for the tips. smile.gif

I think the BENGKOK BEZEL is way too over already... Did all of you assure it is really bengkok or due to light source reflection? doh.gif

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Another I notice kind some users(not here)/reviewer complaining on heavy change by Samsung in UI compare with stock. Is it really so?

I find Samsung TouchWiz (since S III) is the most near to stock, Sony UI is nice but it never like stock look, HTC wise is big change from stock, completely no stock feel.

Some said Samsung icon really cartoonist? Is it? I don't think so, it is not stock look - yes, none manufacture use stock look icon either. I don't feel Samsung icon is cartoonist. It is well build quality icon. Same as Sony icons and HTC icons, all well build with it own identity look.

About the bezel, I think I see it before. I think its ok one.

About TW UI, I also support you. It is stock already. Just need to remove all unnecessary widget causing the lag.
I seem to agree with Andrewtst that it is not a big deal.

I saw this type of chassis before and it is normal for plastic chassis due to manufacturing mold.

If change bezel, better don't. Later dust easy go in.

My home button doesn't work with S Pen. It still needs the 'click'.

It is working, it is a button, just put slightly pressure to press it. But........... if all is touch sensitive, it will be much better.
