- Greeting All.
Just to let you all know, I have flashed my ATIV S back to WP GDR3 using instructions from this forum and this time I changed the CSC code to NEE. As I read this version will get WP 8.1.1 update quicker and there was no option to set to ATO.
After installing WP 8 GDR3, I got the upgrade notification for WP 8.1.1, but this time I noticed it was the Samung official notification with official firmware. Previously I noticed it mentioned only Microsoft update.
So I just went ahead and installed the WP8.1.1 update.
After update is completed I am on latest firmware and WP 8.1.1. Also my firmware is now the same version as those reported by other users 2424.14.9.4.
So I think my previous problem was caused by my firmware version
My phone has been running normally for the last two day now, initially I have performed several soft reboot to ensure it does not have previous problem.
Thanks all for all your help and support. I will keep you updated on any further problems.- Share

- It now day three on WP 8.1.1 thing on going smoothly no issues so far.
With new firmware even Cortana is now working. Previously could not get it to work even when set to US or UK region and language.
But I did notice the battery life seems to be shorter on this firmware and WP 8.1.1 compared with my previous Hong Kong firmware & WP 8.1.1 (Although I only used it for 4 days before it screwed up!), it actually worse than the battery life when I was running WP 8 GDR3 on my Hong Kong firmware.
I have already followed the Microsoft instructions/recommendations on battery life. Any advice you guys can give me? or do I need to replace my battery as I have been using this phone since May 2013.12-04-2014 12:13 AMLike 0 - It now day three on WP 8.1.1 thing on going smoothly no issues so far.

Anyway, give it a time, see if this battery life keeps in the next 2-3 weeks. If it does, my advice would be to get a spare battery. Make sure it's an original battery for ATIV S, cuz the NFC chip is built in the battery not on the phone. And then test the new battery, but keep in mind that the new battery will need some time to adjust to the working habits of the phone, usually takes couple of weeks to a month. :)12-04-2014 12:40 AMLike 0 - It now day three on WP 8.1.1 thing on going smoothly no issues so far.

If I swipe down on the Action Centre, I am can enable/disable the WIFI, Rotation Lock, Adjust Screen Brightness and even startup the camera and take a picture? Anyone else seeing this behaviour?
This is without me entering the unlock password!!!
Strange, it will prompt you for unlock password if you try to enable Location.!!12-05-2014 12:17 AMLike 0 -

Alternatively you can switch that off from settings, so the only time you can swipe down the Notification Center is when your device is unlocked. Hope I made it clear, cuz i was about to go to sleep and i am very sleepy atm, but i saw your question and had to answer you. :)12-05-2014 12:35 AMLike 0 - I too switched to NEE from COA (Romania) and got WP8.1 just like HKATIVS.
I hope I'll be able to restore everything from the backup. :)

Well, I can't restore anything. I should have done it right after the CSC change. I didn't sign in after the reset but went straight to the 8.1 update and now restoring is no longer an option.Last edited by IntoTheSun; 12-05-2014 at 03:35 AM. Reason: Update
