Connect your Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 or 3 (tab 10.1, Tab 8.9, Tab 7.7, Tab 7.0 Plus) to your TV

I have just bought a second hand Samsung Galaxy Note3. My Samsung Galaxy Note3 fell in water yesterday and does not work very well anymore?

I want the second hand phone to be erased of all the things it has on it. I then want to set it up for me.

First, Go into Settings. Under Accounts, you will see Google. Erase the former person's Google Account if it is still in there then add yours. Now you can hard reset the phone. If the phone will not let you erase the initial Google Account then add yours to the account and set is as primary. Go back into the phone and SYNC the account with your credentials. If the phone has Lollipop or Marshmallow as the OS it will require you to login with the last synced Google Account before the hard reset. Make sure the sync was completed before you hard reset by adding a contact or taking a photo then checking the Google Account on the PC. A proper sync would show the contact or photo you just added.

Problem is a black screen able to see notification but when I press nothing. Have been using an interface other than touch wiz on the Note 3 for 6 months no problem then all of a sudden it keeps asking me to confirm if I want to permanently use the alternate interface or just once. I select permanently. Then I go to default applications select as a permanent choice to no avail. Just when I was about to give up it crashed the preferred choice. I removed the battery SIM and Memory card. Will now put back to see if that gets me back to at least the touch wiz default option?

Both interfaces should now work properly. This should also allow you to make a permanent choice. The Touchwiz may work properly now. If it fails then install new Custom ROM on the phone. If that fails then you have an internal hardware issue.

How to fix APN settings on my Galaxy Note3?

My Galaxy Note3 won't connect to network data. It's saying it cannot recognize the SIM

Put the phone into Recovery Mode. Instead of choosing Wipe Data, select Wipe Cache Partition. Reboot your phone. Your SIM card should be recognized but go into Settings to Networks and tap the APN. This should activate it again. If your APN is still wrong, contact your cell phone provider for the correct APN settings. Some companies also list them online. T Mobile for instance, lists how to change the APN and gives the proper values for their service.

I want to take a full backup of my Note 2 neo but my display is not working?

Suggest any steps to take a full backup of my contacts, photos, music, etc even when my display is not working

You can try connecting to Kies. This happened to me with my Note2 but Kies would not recognize my phone because the motherboard was fried. I did recover items that were synced with my Google Accounts such as Contacts and Photos/Videos. If you regularly synced your Google Account then it will be on the PC under your Google Accounts. Once you get a new phone, use your former Google Account and then a sync will begin and you will find items that were from the former phone.

Do you know how many hours remaining?

I'm trying in the same procedures as per mentioned in VisiHow website to restore factory, but my mobile still restoring factory since more than 5 hours, and I'm trying to restart it but when I opened it the same screen has appeared again.

Pull the battery. Also, if your phone is under 70% charged it may not hard reset. Make sure you are following the hard reset steps for your specific device. If you have a cloned version of the Galaxy then your phone may not restart with the normal Galaxy instructions.
