What's your screen density set at?

Do you have a nandroid prier to the line appearing? is so take a current backup. and flash the old one, to compare apps etc that's you've installed within the last couple of weeks.
by the way does the line correspond to the position of the tab? or is it in the same place regardless?

it goes with the tab

Then it is more than likely a software and not a hardware glitch. try flashing a backup, if you don't have one, try reflashing the rom.

ok ill try it

Calibration compass?

Anyone having issues with the compass uncalibrating after a reboot is this a known issue?

Me too. Either of you guys rooted? I used the initial method, using MI1... I don't remember it happening before. I'm downloading MI9 now to see if it was fixed.
Also, how is your GPS navigation? Mine's just awful. Jumping around all over the place. There's a couple of threads for that already, and I don't want to hijack the thead. Just wondering if the two could be related?

I'm rooted mi1 --> mi9 rdlvega

My gps is fine on locking but the compass is seriously off and I need to calibrate it every time I reboot even then it's not as accurate as my s3 I'm rooted mi9 this issue occurred even without root

Ok. MI9 fixed my GPS issues. Night and day. Google navigation was almost unusable. Always jumping to different streets, slow refresh rate, etc. My compass performance is also MUCH better. But still has a few issues. I'm using the smart compass app from the store. Upon reboot, it typically measures magnetic field strength at ~230uT (red text). At this point the reading is just garbage. Jumps all over the place. After a few minutes/seconds (might just be motion recalibrating compass), the reading jumps back down to ~40 uT (green text). At this point, it's actually usable, although sometimes off by as much as 20-30 degrees.

You guys using s view covers?

Nope. Bare Nekid!

I thought it was just mine. Compass/accelerometer is a bit jumpy too. I notice it most in Sky Map+.

I had same issue naked with field compass pro but I read on another thread that it was specifically cause of s view cover.

Kept telling me to recalibrate but it would not calibrate no matter how many figure 8s I made. Lol
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium HD app

The Compass issues have nothing to do with S-Cover. I had them, too, when I first bought the phone. There were reports of this problem with the S4, too, IIRC. You have to calibrate your sensors using a program like GPS Status. It's a sightly more involved process than just doing the figure 8 thing -- but not much.

I'll give it a try now.

4.4 hidden Easter Egg not right after upgrade

Anyone that upgraded today have the same issue as me?
After double checking my Android version in settings and seeing 4.4.2, I fast clicked the version number to her to the K that spins. Well, my K doesn't spin at all. I have to long press it to get to the red Android sign, and then long press again to get to the android tiles underneath. My tiles don't float around though. My wife's Note 3 upgraded fine and the easter egg works perfectly. This is making me paranoid that something else isn't right with my upgrade... I just haven't found it yet.

Mine spins, shows k. Tap it, spins. Tap and hold for red Android

I know what it should do. My wife's works fine. Mine doesn't. Mine doesn't spin, and my tiles aren't animated.

Sounds petty, but I'm just worried about what else didn't update correctly. May have ATT reflash in store.

They won't be able to. As of right now, KK is OTA only.

Good times. I Googled this to see if anyone else experienced this weird, hidden issue. Nothing online about it except my post here.

Could there be a problem with your screen's touch sensitivity? Have you tested that in other contexts? Or tried using the stylus with the Easter Egg?

Thanks. K now spins, but the second easter egg (android logo tiles) do not animate... Aka fly across the screen when you click them. Instead they blink in and out. No animation. Interesting.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app

Fixed. I had animation scales, rendering etc turned off in developer mode prior- in orde to make phone run faster. Good lesson.

Thank you! I am trying that but nothing happens. I'm tapping it as fast as I can.
My Note 3 is completely stock. I know the Developers is turned on but have no idea what that even means.
Thanks again!

As long as you have a Note 3 that has been upgraded to 4.4.2, you can access this easter egg (or any device that has 4.4, not just a Note). If you go to YouTube and search for '4.4 easter egg’, there will be a ton of vids of people showing how to get there.

Whenever I buy a new phone, this is the first app I run to find out if everything is functioning. It will tell you if your device has any borked sensors.
