Plan to buy Samsung Galaxy Note 3? No matter you are getting it online or at mobile store. Do make sure that you check all the Galaxy Note 3 hardware functions. Thanks Samsung for still using the old good and worthy testing application – FactoryKeystring. Just like other Galaxy devices, use the short code to launch the program. It is very useful for first time Samsung users. Existing Samsung users should know about this, right?
Bring up Phone. Select Keypad tab. Key in *#0*#. FactoryKeystring app will be launched. Then use it to test all Galaxy Note 3 hardware functions. No need to download LCD testing application to find out dead / bright pixel because you can do so with Red, Green, Blue, Receiver (white) and Vibration (black) colour. And perform all other tests like vibration, dimming, front and back camera, sensors, touch screen, speaker and more…
Normally, dead pixel is one of the common defects. And most annoying because you can see it every time. Worst of all, you can’t claim warranty with 1 or 2 dead pixels. Follow by touch screen no matter direct touch or hovering. Be sure to test out S Pen with Wacom Test as well. Other than these tests, double checks the new Galaxy Note 3 back cover too. Make sure that there is no tiny bump like pimple. That’s it. Good luck on getting a perfect one.
