Thanks for all the info, very much appreciated.

I do have it set to 3 minutes of delayed lock, but when I'm busy during the day it sure seems like 'instantly' because I don't have my phone in my hands all the time and my password is moderately long. About my other question though - assuming I could get in and root the phone successfully and...

NFC ReTag to unlock device The Moto Skip caught my attention, and I was excited until I learned it was for Motorola only devices and I have a Note 3 (SM-N900A - Android 4.4.2). I've been looking for an alternative and this seems like a great fit, but there are still a couple issues if I...

Just got a Note 3 last night, and found that they actually downsized the grid from 5x5 on my original Note (i717) to 4x4 on this one (N900A). What gives? Is there an easy way to change the layout without loading another launcher? I like touchwiz, now that CPU strain isn't a problem like it was...

I717UCMD3 I guess this isn't really a CM question but ANY custom rom question - how to update PRL when non-stock?

So I took a stab at CM 10.1.1 stable that came out yesterday. Gotta admit that it's smooth and I like it a lot, the only issue currently hitting me is crappy bars on reception (where normally on stock from AT&T I had full bars). I am going to guess here that maybe it's the PRL, and I need to...

Looks like there's a new quincyatt stable release as of yesterday 7/10/13 for CM 10.1 - well, here goes nothing! :]

I don't know if I'm exaggerating the CM 10.1 issues - that's why I'm asking, are we on a stable build yet or not? As for stock/carrier ROM performance, I wouldn't call 5 seconds to unlock the screen into an SMS notification being frustrating and slow an exaggeration by any means - but outside of...

Supposedly 10.1 went 'official' for all devices that had a stable build, of which I thought we were one - but if you go to download it from the website, and do all the filters (samsung, phablet, cm 10.1), we don't get listed - you have to go back to CM 10. What's the scoop? I'm really getting...

Grr. I downloaded the email apk and tried to run it, and it just failed with 'application not installed'. Apparently I buggered myself up good - I'll have to go the root option, any tips/tricks to keep in mind before I do that?

The basic 'email' app. I had originally disabled that and 'exchange services' way back at the beginning (root required) because I wasn't using anything but gmail and was paring down on apps as much as possible. Now I have a reason to use it, and while I was able to enable 'exchange services'...

I've got an app that is listed as 'disabled' in application manager list, but when I select it to try and re-enable the button is grayed out and says 'disable' on it as if it was never disabled to start with. How do I un-stick this app? TIA

I'm still working on this and haven't been able to make much headway. I've also found that I can't install the google keyboard because it errors out saying 'already exists'. Any helpful information welcome.

I've had the basic 'email' and 'exchange services' apps disabled for a long time because all I've used is gmail since the beginning. (done via either rooted phone disable originally, or now just manage apps and disable, no root required) Now I have a reason to use them and while I can click...

I don't recall, but if I had to venture a guess I'd say probably not. I followed the above thread to the 'slow 4.1.2' and disabled everything I could on that list and did a restart, not sure which one did the trick but now it's nice and speedy.Hoping it stays this quick and isn't just a factor...
