Samsung is good in retaining customers. Yes, you will get lot of goodies by using Samsung products like Samsung Galaxy Lifestyle Rewards for Galaxy Note 3. Samsung is giving free Samsung Video Hub Voucher to buy contents from Disney, Paramount and Screen Media as my birthday gift. And free Welcome Voucher for Box Office Hits. So I have 2 vouchers in total. Hmm… Which movie should I redeem?
You can improve Samsung Galaxy S4 screen display colour with preset 5 screen modes – Adapt display, Dynamic, Standard, Professional photo and Movie. However, they may not suit you totally. Some colours might slightly go off a bit. No worry, there is a way to calibrate Galaxy S4 Super AMOLED screen. Control brightness, edge enhancement, chroma saturation and white colour balance. For example, if you feel that there is too much green colour, just reduce the green gain in STweaks application. Or increase red gain value to make red colour more. That’s it. You can have a perfect screen colour if you have calibrator to help you.
Still don’t get Android 4.3 Jelly Bean OTA system update for your Google Nexus 7? Well, you don’t need to wait anymore. I just download and install Android 4.3 OTA on my Nexus 7 with CWM. Normally, it will take weeks to reach my country, Malaysia. Or you can try to force OTA update method first too. Let’s enjoy latest Android 4.3 before get your hands on the new Nexus 7 (2013)…
Finally, I found a working infrared remote control for Samsung Galaxy S4. Yup, DSLR Remote by bitshift is the one. And the best part – it is free and no ads. DSLR Remote supports both infrared and cable. You can use DSLR Remote IR Dongle for Android smartphone without built-in infrared. Or use IR Blaster for HTC One and Samsung Galaxy series like Galaxy Tab 7.0 plus, Galaxy Tab 7.7 plus, Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, Galaxy Note 10.1 and Galaxy S4. And supports most of the digital SLR out there like Canon, Fujifilm, Minolta, Nikon, Olympus, Pentax and Sony. Yes, it supports my Canon EOS 5D Mark III. I don’t need to bring Canon RC-6 Wireless Remote with me anymore.
Do you factory data reset when got your new Samsung Galaxy Note 3? Well, you don’t have to do so. Why? Because it is pre-factory data reset before shipping out. But no harm to do so again if you want. Just no point. However, it is not the case after few weeks or months of usage. Galaxy Note 3 might become not so stable, or facing forced close issue offer. That’s the time to hard reset then. Note – factory data reset can solve software issue only. You need to send back to service center if facing hardware related issue. No idea which one is causing the issue? Just restore everything back to stock to find out.
