I got my copy of the galaxy note 3 two days ago. I used to have a 6th mem card which is put into the phone and I discovered the phone was behaving funny (like if I touched on the application manager, after a while, a blank page will show and it will give an error message to the effect that the settings could not be opened). After removing the card and replacing it with the one of 32 gig capacity, the error stopped but I discovered that all the video files in mp4 and flv formats that are on the mem card which play well on my note2 don't play on the note 3. It simply says "file can't be played" or something. Also I took some pics with the phone's front camera and they were automatically saved in the mem card but when later I tried opening the pics they couldn't be opened! But some pics sent to the phone via bluetooth opened fine. Pls what do I do?

Hello.

I have an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 sgh-i337 running on Android 4.2.2

Im not sure if its unlocked. So far I have used a vodafone SIM card and works perfectly. I want to know if there is a way to check if my phone is fully unlocked to use any carrier.

Another issue is that I cant use mobile hotspot tethering. Its states that I have no mobile network or invalid sim card.

Can u guys help me out here?

Thanks so much.

try get an original Samsung charger and try it... or If you wanna use the BB charger turn off the device and charge it....the BB charger is probably charging it very slow
