Verizon S4 will retain Wi-Fi notification - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Unfortunately, it appears the Verizon Galaxy S4 will keep the notification we all hate so very much. Luckily, this does not apply to any other carriers, similarly to the S3. I am quite disappointed.

Nothing surprising ... Verizon usually destroys everything on the phone and put it's ugly logo and bloat everywhere.

Indeed. I was hoping they listened from the first time...

What is this wifi notification? I have a Droid Charge on Verizon and I don't see anything Verizon branded in wifi.

New phones get a persistent WiFi notification in the drawer. Incredibly annoying.

i'll just hack the crap out of it, and stream 80+ gigabytes of data monthly to piss them off. unlimited data ftw.

not sure if this will work on s4, obviously its for the s iii
http://www.droid-life.com/2012/07/0...g-wifi-notification-on-the-verizon-galaxy-s3/
and obviously we will have to wait and see, once the verizon version comes out.

i'm surprised they don't force wifi when available :silly:

Just a quick tip to temporarily stop in until reboot is hod the notification from the drop down, tap app info than tap force stop. It will get rid of it until a better root method is provided

I would take this response from the chat representative with a grain of salt. Verizon doesn't tell them much and they are notorious for providing misinformation. Take the S4 pre-orders for example. It seemed like everyone that did an online chat got a different answer as to what time they started. While it's likely that Verizon will force this WiFi notification on us, I really don't think this can be taken as a confirmation. The chat representatives most likely have not seen the Verizon model, nor is it likely that they've been given very much information about it.
Just trying to be optimistic here, although I'll be surprised if it doesn't have the ongoing notification.

Exactly. Chat reps are the pond scum of the Verizon food chain. Don't trust them for any sort of technical / non-basic information.
Although I would assume Verizon will keep this notification to annoy people who use too much network data.

i see it as a way of getting everyone off their 4g network so i can hog all the bandwidth

This isn't really the first we've seen of it, the previous gen flagship phones had this on Sprint by default as well (S3/EvoS). I don't remember how the S2 worked but I'm inclined to say that the "Sprint Connection Optimizer" became big in early 2012.
You and I may be against it, but there is a good case to be made for mobile data offloading onto your home/public WiFi connection. If anyone cares to read some interesting opinions on this, head over to S4GRU: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/2...ta-on-wifi-even-though-you-pay-for-unlimited/ (starting at post #6)

I agree, but this should classify as nontechnical, basic information that even they could process.

Color Gradation Banding Problem with my Note

Hi,
Has anyone been having issues with color banding problems with color gradations?
I've compared the same apps using my Note with my Skyrocket. The Note seems to have a very serious banding issue while the Skyrocket displays them fine. (See attached images)
I will go to the store and compare to another Note just to make sure before I return it for a new one.
Skype App (See Blue area)

As you can see in my post above, it apears to be a software issue not an issue with the screen. The software is telling the display to look like that.
them apps are not made for this device.u can use rom toolbox and lower ppi to 300
should fix some of these app issue.

This is one of the problems we are going to see on this device. These graphics were not made to stretch as far as the note stretches them. As more HD phones come out, we should see less and less of this. As pioneers, however, we'll have to deal with it for now.
It's the same reason phone apps look bad on tablets, and why tablet versions are eventually released.

An easy way to tell is to put a picture or graphic with similar tones to the graphic in question into your gallery. If it's a hardware issue, you should see similar banding. If it's simply trying to scale a low res picture too high, you won't.
I remember when the iPad first came out people were installing all kinds of iPhone apps on it and them complaining about how they looked. That's why they put that little "2x" button in the bottom corner. The apps would default to iPhone size unless you hit the 2x button, in which case the app looked bad. Then they started developing tablet versions of the apps and presto, problem gone.

Don't get me wrong, there probably are some units with bad displays. That happens with every phone that comes out. I'm just saying it's not likely a systemic hardware issue. By all means, if people are getting better performance than you, go see about a replacement. But if we are all in a similar boat (like the guy that posted a similar thread showcasing banding in the notification pulldown), it's likely a problem with the images, not the phone.
try this
Try this photo and let me know the results in low light.
I wonder how effective it would be to take the stock images that are most affected (pull down notification, for instance), upscale them and hit them with the gradient tool in photoshop. Maybe if I get some time I'll give it a shot.

The First Rule of Secure Box is You Do Not Talk About Secure Box

Good Day Everyone
First off let me start by saying im on a Evo 4G LTE running Fresh LTE 5.2.1 by Flipz.
(Love it...other than this problem I am having)
What is this "Move to Secure Box" option when you long press on a text message?
I have searched both google and xda-devs looking for answers and it seems like people are putting this in their roms but provide no information about it.
I received some very important text messages yesterday. And as of last night they were gone. So I find out my daughter was playing with my phone. Moving items to a "secure box"
Where is this secure box? These messages were a key piece of evidence in a lawsuit and now they are gone.
If I cant find them, i'm out 10 grand. Any assistance at this point would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance

How to add apps to multi-task bar

How do we add apps to the Multi-Task bar. I want to add youtube but it is not an option when I hit Edit? I have seen it in several videos. Do we not get it on Verizon?
From what I've seen youtube should be there. Some 3rd party apps may not though. Can anyone that has one already chime in?
From what I have seen in various videos there are several apps missing on my Verizon Note 2's Multi Tasking Dock. In addition to You Tube I have seen Twitter and Chrome, neither are on multi tasking dock and I cannot see how to add them.
I think its drag and drop, try dragging them to the bar.
PS I dont have one yet
I tried dragging but it does not work.

You're probably going to have to wait until your phone is rooted, so that you can flash a mod to enable all apps for multi-task view.

sounds like verizon went and neutered the damn phone, between this and removing blocking mode.
I have the international note 2 and it requires either modifying the framework, or a app that has been written. I'm sure the app can be ported once someone gets root.

No **** you! Why don't you take ten seconds and Google an answer instead of asking to be spoon fed! If you looked there are edits you can do to the apps and apps people have already edited for lazy people like you.
Also the people here are not Samsung or Google. So how is it our fault you can't watch you tube while watching you porn and beating it at the same time (since I'm sure you're a Virgin)?
As for the drag and drop. Use some common sense. There is a bar on the side with apps, hold one and drag and drop it in the open space that SAYS DRAG AND DROP HERE!
Jezz the sense of entitlement on this forum is sickening. I don't care of you dropped a million on the phone no one here gets paid and this is a development Site that is going to suggest root and ROM. By the way for Christ sack try using some form of punctuation, what are you 10?

If you read your phones manual, researched, watched YouTube videos of how the feature works you would know how to use your phone at the most basic level. You come to this site to get information beyond what is in the manual.
The reason you get answers of "root" is because many things you want to do beyond the stock software requires it. If you don't want to root then enjoy your phone exactly the way it came out of the box. You have made a decision not to root. Don't get mad when people explain rooting is required for the fix.
And as mentioned above this is a feature that can be fixed by editing apps and installing modified apps without the need for root. But guess what. You need to do some work and decompile and recompile apps.

Sadly like most reviews they have no pictures of the note side by side of last years android model phones. I got my note finally (the grey one) and my rezound is the exactly the size of the screen area of the note. The s pen works better than I expected it too, but I purchased this for the screen size(my rezound has the same resolution), the 2GB of ram, removable battery, and the microsd slot.
I still cant access it from phone. Hmmmm
Lets see they missed:

Verizon axing S Planner (widget).
Verizon adding an ongoing wifi notification, axing the toggle.

It isn't in CleanROM either. I know you can still send a scheduled e-mail, but the option to scheduled SMS I believe should be in messages screen -> menu -> scheduled messaging.
Maybe this feature was taken out. There are plenty of market app substitutes, though...
Like a calendar appointment?
Yeah I've tried everything to get it from the stock text application and nothing. Plus I know I can use a third party app but I really don't want to go that route if possible. Vzw always finds a way to screw up something for me.ugh.
What are you trying to accomplish. A message to pop up on your screen at a certain time/date?

No, we're supposed to be able to schedule a text message straight from the messaging app, this is so frustrating to realize that such a great feature apparently was removed by vzw. This must be why they were last to get the note 2...removal of things we could actually use and branding it into oblivion

Let's say I needed to send a text out to someone at a certain time but I'd be asleep at that time, I could schedule it to send the text to that person at that time...

I've never understand wasting the time to get upset over something this simple.
There has to be 50 different apps that can do this. In the time it took you to type this, you could have installed one of them and scheduled the text to go out...........
As far as I know, this was never an advertised feature of the VZW Note 2, and honestly, this is the first I'm hearing of it.
Check out the review on gsmarena for the n2. It was a business feature for the n2. Works much like scheduled emailing
Here got it for you

And to the above poster, not imnuts, some people just want to use native features instead of loading up on apps. It isn't for us to question why he wants it. In the same time it took you to post that you could have been helpful and found him a useful scheduling sms ap
I have tons of apps, but hate third party messengers. Even if didn't, I wouldn't want to install something I don't really want for one feature. That being said, if it's somewhere in the phone, I'm sure it could be brought out, like blocking mode, etc. Time will tell

I don't see Verizon anywhere on that. Also, if you're reading reviews, 90% of the time, they're for the international version, which is going to vary as far as software and sometimes hardware. If you really want to know where it is, ask VZW, as they made the final call on it being included or not.

To imnuts' point, that clearly says Galaxy Note II N7100 which would be the international one. That does not say the Verizon i605 was going to get that feature.
Meh, most of the roms are built off the international versions, right? I don't see this included in any of their roms. Op was just asking if it was there. They didn't advertise scheduled emailing, but it is there. Odd they'd have that feature, but take out sms. Probably cause one uses data and the other one goes towards their unlimited texts. Anyways I was just showing where people would get that impression. I never stated specifically that it was for vzw, but an advertised feature of the note 2. And yeah we all know how vzw does things their way. But can anyone confirm this feature is indeed on stock sms? Then it might be as simple as pushing the sms apk over.
I appreciate everyone's responses and yeah I just hate to have an app that isn't needed if the feature was just left in...I might just root this thing and try to add another messaging app from another version if possible. Like this isn't a MUST have thing for me but I can't figure out why it's not here. Whoever pointed out that vzw left it as a part of the email because that consumes data vs unlimited texts makes perfect sense.
just you go sms, has everything you will ever need including scheduling messages.
If it really is on the international version then I dont think it would be that hard to get it on the VZW version, but thats a big if. I havent seen this on any of my phones in quite a while, then again I havent specifically looked for it either.
I would think if it was on the international version it would be on the CleanRom or Beans versions that are based on international roms.

thought beans roms was verizon based, but cleanROM 4.6 is international. Guess we could ask in that thread.
I was actually looking for this a couple of days ago when someone asked me to text them a reminder for some hockey tickets they were giving me. Had to set an alarm to remind to send the text. This would have been easier...
Oh hai
