I would take to a Verizon shop and replace it if it's a hardware issue.

I've been talking to Samsung And they know the problem. It's the software that's wrong, you can make a total reset of the phone.

Factory Reset
I factory reset mine and it still didn't fix the issue. I put my phone in safe mode and still nothing. I think it's a hardware issue, or software possibly. Tomorrow I'm taking my phone to Verizon and seeing if they can figure anything.

Weird wifi problems

Okay so every time I put my note in sleep mode, it disconnects from wofi so when I turn on the screen, I have to wait for it to connect before being able to do anything.
It also repeatidly disconnects while I'm using the phone.
I am on stock from with root. Using abyss note kernal.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
P.s. I am going to send it in for warranty repair, but that won't be for another two to three weeks while I secure a phone to use while my note is away

LG will not fix the Touchkey Lights

LG just wrote in the German Supportforum that there wont be a 2.3 Update that will fix the Touchkey Lightning. Support said that it increases the Battery time.
The Support said that if (!!!) they fix they will fix it with ICS.
I dont get it, what problem?

The Problem is that i (we) bought a Phone with working Lights and LG srewed things up. Then the Only Soulution to get it back is to void Warranity and install a Custom Rom.
What would you do if you buy a car with defect intruments lightning and the Car company wont fix it and you have to void your warranity to get it working?
I for one bought a Phone which LG broke (and refuses to fix it).

Note 3 help

Hello! I have a note 3 and in enough time my phone will boot then go to the at&t logo then just sit there for ~5~ min or even more...then sometimes will go back to the Samsung thing back to At&T logo and give it enough time and hard rest but it comes back and I have my phone again. Pain....in..my..ass
The solution: factory reset...but I hate doing this because I'm doing it repeatly now...
Has anyone else has this problem or have any advice for me?
Edit: Does anyone know anyone willing to trade a Note 3 AT&T for a SM-N9005? It has a glass screen protector and a aluminium home button.

What did you do to your phone? As in did you root it? Try to install a custom ROM? A custom recovery? Anything like that? You can odin back to stock from Root De La Vega from what I understand. I don't see anybody trading their phone for a broken one. You can't even trade here on XDA, you have to use Swappa or something else.
I added xposed and some apps the ones I am using are
Call recording
Gravity Box
Wanam
I can't install any custom Roms bootloader is still locked :/
So I fixed it by just factory resting everything. So my point on posting this is to see if anybody has this problem. The phone isn't broken it in perfect condition. I just don't know how much longer I can take without an unlocked bootloader.
If you wanted I could screenshot of what apps are using root?

Try taking your SD card out and then see if you still have the long boot or loop issue. Some phones are having issue reading certain brand SD cards and it id causing long boots or other strange problems..
Interesting....how old school lol
I'll try that

Just curious what (security hacks & advance mods) settings did you use in wanan?
when you got your note 3...You didnt carry over your sd card with anything on it did you from prior device? Or use titanium backup?
Id try to trouble shoot it this way...Disable wanan...reboot see If it does it again....If so, start with the other app and disable or unistall.....Keep trying you'll find the source
Gravity Box is not to be used with Note 3 ROM. I know things work with it but the OP says not to use on TouchWiz roms. Or I might be wrong..

I had the same issue I guess it coz of Gravity Box, it is advised not to use Gravity Box on Note 3 Touch Wiz I removed it and never faced the Boot Loop or System UI Stopped working since then.

Incoming calls

Starting two days back, my Z1 receives incoming calls on external speakers instead of internal, so every incoming call starts that way. I need to manually put the call in internal speaker mode.
Unrooted, 4.3, the .290 build.

Same here, seems the priblem is latest Sony Sociallife update.
Try the following: clear cache and data, uninstall updates, deactivate app, restart. Let me know.

Well, what I did was have someone call me, and call answering was sent to external speaker as usual. During the conversation, I plugged in the headphones and call went to headphones, and then, during the call, I removed them.
After that, I had another three incoming calls, and everything went back to normal, calls were directed to internal audio, not external.
I did that, because I remember that two days ago I was using Walkman app, headphones on, and phone rang. Answered the call from phone's dialler app, and all was fine. And since then, it all started with calls to external, like the phone did not "remember" that headphones were removed.
But that is just my guess, since it seems this plugging/unplugging headphones now fixed it. But you also might be right, since it's two days ago that I've updated Socialife app indeed.
I will keep monitoring incoming calls' behavior, and if it reverts back to external, I will unistall updates, and clear cache etc.
Oh, and before doing the headphones trick, just plain restarting the phone didn't work.
Let me know if you can pinpoint more exactly the cause of all this.

u place your phone on a flat surface? if its so, than the phone is helping u to use external speaker since u r not not bringing up the phone to your ear.
This just started happening to me to, was going to post about it. Going to try some of your suggestions.

No, phone is not on a flat surface, it is happening even when I put it to my ear, the call stays on external speaker, and I have to tap the on-screen button to direct it to internal speaker.

In my case it seems that the headphones trick did the job (so far), but if it will persist, I will take a closer look at the Socialife app as well.

Happening here with me as well. Can anyone confirm if it's socialife?

Well, this morning I took a call, and again, on external speaker...
I uninstalled Socialife updates, see how it goes from there.
I don’t have the slightest idea why this started to happen..

I am facing the same problem in 257. n i remember that few days ago i received the call through headphones.

Maybe if we clear data and cache from the phone app fixes the problem?...my problem is gone after doing the headphone trick so can anyone else try it or did anyone tried it already?
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
I did the headphone trick, but it didn't work for long, after three or four calls, it reverted back to external speaker.

Hello.
I tried:
Disable Sony social l./uninstall updates.
Phone cache clear.
Software repair via Sony pc compaion.
Problem not solved.
Always after phone restart, first incomming call goes to L.speaker.
So Today i tried to uninstall latest Google chrome update(28.02.2014).
After phone restart first incomming is ok- loudspeaker is disabled!
So maybe its a Google chrome problem?

Visually impaired and Vr?

Anyone tried? Samsung has a program for visually impaired. I have only 20% vision on my left eye and my feild of vision is also very small. Should be great to know if simeone tried.
Kind regards
Stefan

I'm presbyopic, meaning cannot see well close up.
Unfortunately when I tried the VR setup it insisted resetting all settings to make things larger, then I couldn't see the screen at all when used as phone. So cannot use the VR headset
