Question for the big red owners, any dislikes, issues specific to the carrier?

coach26 · Oct 12, 2013

Would like to know if anyone else's note locks up for a sec, then you get a pop up saying samsung watch on has stopped working?

jds4000 · Oct 12, 2013

None at all. Excellent all around.

coach26 · Oct 12, 2013

Looks like I may need to get a new one...This kept happening even after I did a factory reset

I had this issue immediately upon activating. I just turned it off in the application manager since I'll never use it anyway ZERO issues since. I have slight button wiggle but nothing that bothers me. Black model user

My one and only complaint would be a complete lack of accessories. A Bluetooth headset off the shelf is not an accessory... that can be used with any phone.

Where are the S-View covers? Flip covers? Wireless charging accessories? Screen protectors that actually protect the screen? The Verizon corporate store here was shockingly devoid of any and all Note 3 accouterments.

I bought an s - view cover from Verizon like han, but to be honest...I don't like it...won't stay closed when laying down on table..no auto sleep on close..it felt like I had to close it just right to get s view to show up. Bothered me that Google Music won't work on s view screen...I think I'll like the speigen one better when it comes out. Gonna take back to Verizon monday.

well they sent me a phone without a simcard, then the customer service dude was a dick about it.

Other than that no complains

This has been my issue as well. And looking at what the app is, completely useless for me I don't even own a TV.

Just turned it off in app manager, we'll see if it's better.

Regarding "Watch On" Had the same issue and made the same adjustment and no problem since.

droidobsessed · Oct 12, 2013

No issues here. I am lucky my blue tooth headphones that worked with my galaxy nexus, iPhone 4 and now my note 3.

ocyberbum · Oct 13, 2013

I was out of town when my ph came in but last night i couldn't get passed the activation screen, after 2 calls to vzw and a trip to the vzw store, which they told me my problem was a software issue with Samsung and to wait 48hrs too try again, I got tech level 2 on the ph and they are sending me a new sim card today to see if that fixes the problem

missy brown · Oct 13, 2013

I have no issues yet time will tell

Methos1979 · Oct 13, 2013

None here as well. Loving this phone!

jonny772 · Oct 13, 2013

Mine is great. Fast fast fast is all I can say. I love the multi Window capability. And 20 hours of battery with some left over. I would have had to charge my previous phone 5 times.

How heavy of use are you talking? I'm trying to run mine today to see what to expect from the battery and I'm on hour five with 35% remaining. Granted my iPhone would have needed a charge by now but I expected a little better from this battery based on the reviews and comments like yours.

jonny772 · Oct 13, 2013

Medium use. I turn my data on as I need. Not much streaming. Unless on wifi. Any thing I missed let me know.

DevinNJ · Oct 13, 2013

Picked up mine today, black, couldn't be happier. Fit and finish is fine, no issues with the home button either. Am very pleased.

vergof16 · Oct 15, 2013

I got my white Note 3 the day it came out and I love it! Aside from the Samsung Watch ON thing popping up (which I turned off and no problems since) this phone has completely exceeded my expectations.

My one and only complaint is Verizon's lack of wifi calling. All the apps I've looked up that allow wifi calling all give out some new number. The ones that do allow you to use your number they charge "credits" to call. I'm thinking about rooting my phone if I can guarantee I can wifi call in my basement.

FYI I'd even pay for the service and Verizon not offering it is complete ridiculous.

iwoloschin · Oct 15, 2013

Everything is great, other than the lack of Knox. I was curious about using Knox for my work email, and everything was saying it should be installed, but it appears to not be. VZW has no idea what Knox even is.

Dingster1 · Oct 15, 2013

Just picked up my white one today. No issues as yet. Still figuring things out.

darkcyber · Oct 15, 2013

No issues. Very fast overall.

Sportster · Oct 15, 2013

Well, so far not real impressed with the camera. Low light is terrible! And when I listen to Google Music through the headphone jack plugged into my car, at times the volume will 'adjust' on its own. One song will be ok, rewind that same song and it drops volume. Go to the next song and wow, the thing is blaring! Something is not right with the volume on this thing. Wish I had more than two weeks to hash this out. I need to know if I need to return this and get something else if it's a systemic prob or just with mine. Anyone else have volume issues???

dalegg · Oct 15, 2013

Open up watch on and enter whatever you want to in to the program. It will quit doing that if it is not totally empty.

Sportster · Oct 16, 2013

Another issue I'm having is I turned on the ability to wave your hand over the phone to scroll web pages and whatnot....hasn't done it once yet. I think this things going back asap.....
