Hello guys..
i have a problem.
I'm using S4 i9505 qualcomm

after updating to knox 2.0
my lockscreen went crazy
Attached Image

the clock,
instead of 15:30
it went 03:51
and now it is on the right side which i hate, because i use mostly left hand with my phone.
the notification menu also drop a bit slow and laggy compare to before

anybody experience this?
any solution please?

thank you

The clock is 03:51 because you set a wrong region or didnt enable 24 hours clock type.  laugh.gif Mine clock is still on the left after I upgraded to knox 2.0 though.
*
I use automatic date and time,
automatic time zone.
and the selected time zone is malaysia.
also 24 hours selected sad.gif

did u notice the notification menu drops a bit slower

Cheers guys. I will try next week.

This week stuck at kampung. No unifi. Will do when i got back to the office.

I prefer s4 compare to my wife iphone 5.
In s4, i can make the animation faster. All my transitionis 0.5x.
i dont think iphone can do that and it makes me feel drowning waiting for the animation to finish. Especially when ending a multiple task.

Anyway guys. Before the knox2.0 update, it was stated that this update will bring kids mode to s4? How do i 7se the kids mode?

Thanks guys

why LTE version is not original from samsung? please explain... doh.gif

QUOTE(cursebreaker @ Dec 8 2014, 06:35 PM)
LTE has original as well. Those that you get from Telco package definitely original
*
idk.
because the seller who i bought said mine not from samsung. AP set.
plus, the warranty card also not from samsung.

i read that samsung s4 earlier even from telco dont have lte.
that's why got AP set.
not sure about now

just wondering if anyone had changed their vibrator.
if not that expensive, i might do it this week..

thank you

what i meant the warranty is not from samsung

Is it adviseable to get a new AP i9505?

get a used one..
but a good one.

I looked thoroughly in LYN and mudah.
looking for the right seller..
usually people who change phone frequently, ladies user.

though a lot better new phone withing the price range of used S4, I still prefer Samsung interface.. tongue.gif

phew.. i just hard reset my s4..
backed up phone using kies, and then restore it back..
just that it didn't 100% restore my phone exactly like before.
still have to arrange the icon, resetting my apps.. lucky i dont use many app.

not sure if if fault or not, but at least phone still ok biggrin.gif

anyway,
1. my phone doesnt have that "life companion" normal font.
does that mean mine is different rom? I noticed after i hardreset, the first language my phone selected is Chinese/mandarin.

2. do you guys update samsung link? because i'm afraid it will bring lot of bloatware

thank you guys

1)When you perform a hard reset, the phone will automatically reloads its original FW. So the region your type of fw depends on where your phone originates from.

2)Yes, if not necessary, just ignore Samsung links as it brings along a lot of unused apps.

3) No matter if you backup and do a complete restore, some apps are resetted and you will need to set it up again.
*
i think last time i updated samsung link, if not mistaken,
it brought together 10 useless app like print direct, podcast, bar code reader etc..
so annoying because i needed to manually update app instead of update all.
maybe just disable it because i use AirDroid to transfer file via wifi anyway.

I just wish that the restore backup will actually restore my icon arrangement and my setting preferences. tongue.gif too much too ask? whistling.gif whistling.gif whistling.gif
but still good anyway, fresh reset, fresh arrangment.

It wouldn't install your previous setting, everything need to re-arrange and furthermore you need to go one more round to update all default apps to latest if you using it otherwise just disable it. sweat.gif

found this link
http://www.larkins.org/technology/disable-...xy-devices.html

this guy even disabling svoice. I'm not gonna though, still fun to swear/play with svoice from time to time sweat.gif

anyway, i realised, before this, i could use waze, google maps, fb/insta check in without turning on GPS.
the phone still can detect location precisely using local wifi,
But now cannot already.

any of u guys experience this?

I didn't have this error. Do your s4 have a sd600 processor, I find that it heats up easily

QUOTE(fkinmeng @ Aug 31 2015, 09:14 PM)
bro, sorry but bad news for you.

i faced that problem before, it can only be help if you change mobo. it's actually an international issue, you can google it and read it online, just search "s4 insert sim card error" and lots of people faced that issue.

yeap.. i googled it... thats why i suspect from heat issues bcoz i always use my s4 as gps..
so get very hot when driving.

any idea how much for repair?

or should i just change phone... rclxub.gif rclxub.gif rclxub.gif rclxub.gif
