calls work, internet doesnt

tl;dr - M440s+cm12.1+devil kernel = wifi works, shows no sim inserted, emergeny calls only, still calls work, no internet, rest rom is good.

so i finally managed to flash rom with a proper clean flash. its cm12.1 + devil kernel combo, only way to get cm rom on m440s. here's the thing, wifi works by default so didnt need wifi fix. my phone shows 'Emergency calls only' and no sim inserted in status bar, but i can make calls. like legit i can receive and make calls but no net. this device is limited to 3g when it comes to capabilities so i went to hidden menu to switch to wcdma only too, but that doesnt make any difference. weird thing is that during first boot, rom asked me to turn on my mobile network and mentioned my sim carrier (airtel). i just want a spare phone that works on lollipop and a few tweaks for a few days. Please do help with the situation if anyone can.

Siyah kernel for M440S

Does anyone have other links to this kernel? Tried going to the Korean site and registering but found it difficult. I was able to Install and use the Galnet ROM by installing Tegrak kernel. I wanted to try the Siyah kernel.
[Galaxy S III General] vavasound:
Which one do you meant?? For which model?
[Galaxy S III General] Freeje:
For the SHW M440S. I don't exactly know the firmware. I know it's the 3G version. Before installing the MIUI version from Galnet, when I click on the about version the model number says GT-i9300 but this was after installing the Spinal-CMOD ROM. Bought the phone from an online retailer in China and it had a Chinese ROM.

After reading the post from this thread, I got to know that you can install almost any ROM so long as you install a compatible kernel. Found the Tegrak and the Siyah could do this but could only download the former. Wanted to try the Siyah to compare the two. No luck downloading the latter from the Korean website so I'm wondering if someone else was able to do it or if there's another link.

Hi I am from Sydney Australia and I am not that technically minded But I wanted to buy the Korean GS3 Does anyone know If they will work On all networks and on the 4G aswell? Although 4G networks are not in all areas so the version coming to australia in 1 months time will be able to automatically toggle between 4G and 3G depending on the area is this possible on the Korean GS3? I dont want to wait 1 month If I dont have to if you know what I mean

Here are the frequencies in Australia:

Telstra 2G / 3G: GSM 900 / GSM 1800 / UMTS 850 / UMTS 2100

Optus 2G / 3G: GSM 900 / GSM 1800 / UMTS 900 / UMTS 2100

Vodafone 2G / 3G: GSM 900 / GSM 1800 / UMTS 850 / UMTS 900 / UMTS 2100

4G/LTE Telstra & Optus Both run on the 1800mhz

Which Model is recommended for Australia SHV-E210K or S? Your help is much appreciated even if someone here is from australia or knows someone would even be better
[Galaxy S III General] vavasound:
My friend, you only have one option if you would like to be compatible with 3G and 4G.

With your info about your country carriers your option is the

SHV-E210K

Okay??

In this link you can compare the 3 korean models...

http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacomparer&id1=3706&id2=3705&id3=3544

Look for the

If your info about your carriers are right... again, you should take the

SHV-E210K

Sms problem on LG+U 210L

Good day

I think I've found another bug in regards to the sms

In dubai there are two network providers, and Du telecom and Etisalat.

Now if you use an Etisalat sim card you can send and receive sms normally.

If you use a Du sim you can only receive sms but you won't be able to send any sms.

Both use different service center numbers, and I've double checked the service center numbers, are all correct but I with the Du sim you can only receive messages but it won't send. I is anyone facing something similar to this?

Anyone might know what is causing this issue?

Well, for what I know the devices are registered with their respective specs. I know that for my device and for my wife's device (GT-I9300) it is 100% right. You might ask to someone that has the E210K version to confirm, but I do believe on pdadb :)

Sms problem on LG+U 210L

It is for LG+ U 210L device, and it is strange I know but it is happening with this phone, and I've had 9300 international travel version before the and it didn't have this problem before, any clue¿
[Galaxy S III General] vavasound:
No!!! Same thing! Unless that my device has an antenna for DMB tv. The size of the device is exactly the same! Other thing that is different is the battery, that mine is like 2mm smaller thant the 9300. I will take some pictures of both and post it here...

---------- Post added at 05:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 PM ----------

Well, if yours is the 210L you should try the V8 rom (chinese one that our frind MADMAXAKTAU posted) I'm using it and it solved a problem that I have with my sms without address.

And this rom will clean up the U+ apps that use battery and memory!
[Galaxy S III General] btemtd:
SHV-E210K i was told they have antenna? i dont understand where is the antenna? i cannot see in the pictures what do you mean. when you say Unless that my device has an antenna for DMB tv. ... i dont want to have fatter device what is this antenna for DMB?? where is it
[Galaxy S III General] vavasound:
Yes, all korean and japanese devices has an antenna for TV reception. The antenna is located on the right upper corner on the back (looking at the screen).

But there is a difference between the jap and kor antenna reception. Kor is DMB-T and Jap is ISDB? Something like this... both are for HD TV reception. I will post the pictures...
[Galaxy S III General] btemtd:
If there is an antenna woudlnt this make the device thicker? And is this antenna any use for people outside of korea? I want to order this but if its got features that make the phone bigger and heavier and is useless maybe I should wait for the upcoming international lte
[Galaxy S III General] vavasound:
Well E210L on left in all pictures and I9300 on right.

The picture where both are in my hand, they're screen on screen.

Looks like the E210 is half mm thicker... well, i have a hard case that fits in both... so, if it is really thicker you can see that is not different on pictures. Maybe the body is different (and it is because the back cover doesn't fit on each other and its make looks like thicker...

Well... I still stay with the SHV :)

2GB of ram makes me happy!!!
[Galaxy S III General] btemtd:
SO the antenna is on all devices? You cannot see it untill its pulled out? That really doesnt look good when its pulled out? Damm it :( Why does it have to have that antenna lol... I mean Would I even be able to use it for something?

---------- Post added at 08:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:53 AM ----------

I was so exited about this untill I saw the antenna, In australia we will be releasing a 4G + 2GB Ram version with no antenna . Coming out on the 23rd September I think I will wait for this one. I wish It was the same as I did not want to wait
[Galaxy S III General] vavasound:
All Korean and Japanese devices... Yes, you only can see it after you pull out it, when it is not pulled out you only see the small "cut" of the antenna on the upper right corner.

Ofcourse you can use it. It depends on your country type of tv streaming.

See bellow the link with this type of media streaming. Some countries use it like Germany, Canada,Italy, etc..

Http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Multimedia_Broadcasting#section_3

For me it will only have usage when I will travel to those countries, because in Brazil we use the same technology as Japan (ISDB-T i think ... i never remember the achronysm for it... )

And I'm realy thinking to buy one Jap to use it!!
[Galaxy S III General] M@31:
I have the 4G and yes, it does switch between 3G and 4G automatically when there isn't coverage.

In the Network settings, just make sure you select Automatic and it will switch.
[Galaxy S III General] btemtd:
we have digital tv in australia but not DMB... but our frequencies are vhf uhf and one more. so i will only be able to use it if i go to another country with it? what a shame.... these days you can just watch tv over wifi aswell. thisis why the korean model is different in weight, thickness. Would you wait for your countries gs3 in a few weeks? or get this put yourself in my shoes please what u think
[Galaxy S III General] nrg2xl:
Wait until October and get the Onyx Black SGS3 from Telstra. Do note that the Optus and Telstra models will have different frequencies and this may be an issue if you are planning to change telecoms in the future. I've already got the Korean model and I'm just hoping the increase in LTE, quad-core, 2GB models fuels an increase in rom development for our phones :)
[Galaxy S III General] vavasound:
Well, my wife's GS3 is brazilian (i9300 international made in Brazil) but it has 16GB rom and 1GB ram. I don't chage mine with her... seems that the 2GB ram of the korean makes it fast!

Here the transmission is also in vhf and uhf and also in korea, i think that in all places are like this... you must look for the way that Australian HD tv works. There are 3 types I think.

DMB-Terrestrial (korea, china, germany, italy, ....)

ISDB-Terrestrial ( Japan and Brazil)

And another that USA uses that I don't remember...

One thing I know, even with my useless antenna for my country I'm very happy with my 210L
[Galaxy S III General] 2nIce:
Sms problem on LG+U 210L

Yea, I'm using this Chinese v8 custom rom and I'm facing these problem, I'm not sure exactly what the cause is, but I think there is still a Korean code with errors somewhere that is causing this, is it possible to look into it?

[Galaxy S III General] btemtd:
I have made my mind I will wait for the titanium Grey model to be released in a few weeks mid september to virgin and optus. This one will not have the useless antenna and will be a touch lighter and should be more compatible with the normal I9300 roms. and the normal I9300 accesories will fit with no problem. and best of all it will be quad and 2gb ram.. thanks for your help guys

You would be smart to wait for the international lte version I think. If I can find someone to transfer my contract to I even might switch and say goodbye to my m440s.

Korean 3G Vs LTE

Just a quick note about the 1Gb vs 2Gb RAM on the Korean 3G and LTE phones.

Since I don't speak Korean (for the tv) and don't use enough data to bother with LTE I decided

to get the 3G for the slightly thinner body. My wife, Korean speaker, decided to get the LTE

so she can watch soap operas on the subway.

After using both phones extensively there is pretty much zero difference in performance between

the two models.

My suggestion is to choose the phone based on your needs re LTE, TV etc and don't worry about

the RAM difference :laugh:
[Galaxy S III General] M@31:
I agree, and sometimes wish that I got the 3G version.

But, then again, it feels good to know that no one has a "better" phone then me right now ahahhahaa

I play a few games here and there as well, so its nice not to worry about it I suppose.

But ya, 3G is probably good enough and has a lot more development for it these days.

Unless you are trying to watch a movie and play a game at the same time (which is doable on the LTE) you probably don't need the 1GB.

It's just nice to have.

Just need someone to help me out on this, if I flash a custom rom on a E210K, I know there is a count, and can be removed with triangle away, what if I flash a root rom or a stock rom with odin, will this log in a count as well.

thanks
[Galaxy S III General] vavasound:
I think so...

Everytime you modify a official rom ( it will count) If you flash it with a official rom without root or something it will not count. Making some head calculations based on my device count number (Times that I flashed with a official and custom and the number that is telling me right now...)

I still want to know how many times it should count to the triangle to come out. Mine is in 5 right now, doesn't appear the triangle, and I'm not able to remove this count since my device was block after the reboot in my two attempts to reset it...

[Galaxy S III General] kms108:
Have you tried the newest version of the triangle away, I think you need to manual press the app, it does not automatic removes the count.

You probably know this more than me.

Anyway, so If I just use odin to flash a stock rom, then there is no count and triangle aways is not needed.

[Galaxy S III General] kms108:
can't you just download it from play store.
[Galaxy S III General] japanimation:
Sorry, i should have been more specific with my problem.

I downloaded CWM's ROM Manager v5.0.2.0 and installed it from the google play store. Opened it and tried "flash clockworkmod recovery" where i was presented with 2 options:

1. Samsung Epic4G

2. Samsung GalaxyS i9000

Before trying either of those 2 options i tried to backup my current ROM. When i selected "Backup current ROM" the device restarted and booted into recovery mode, but failed to backup. Out of pure frustration (I know, not a smart thing to do), i decided to try "flash clockworkmod recovery" and selected option 1 (Samsung GalaxyS i9000), again my device rebooted into recovery mode and yet again failed to do anything.

Both times, i received the error:

"E: failed to verify whole-file signature"

"E: signature verification failed"

Any suggestions?

The SMS size limit was increased to 140 chars, but this is manageable to... The issue still persists with sms contacts, you need to put your contact with country code to works... so.. Go SMS Pro is a nice free app to have instead do it.

Installing the V3

Okay... let's work on this.

How to Install your V3 rom:

on the zip file will have 2 essential files:

recovery_E210L.tar

and

E210LKLALG7-V3_0907_signed.zip

And also will have the Odin in Chinese? well.. just download the Odin from the beginning this post (page 1).

Back-up your data (I didn't did any time in my flashes and all the time all my data come smoothly to the cellphone... so.. it is up to you)

Copy the E210LKLALG7-V3_0907_signed.zip to your external SD_card.

1 - Open Odin and load the recovery_E210L.tar file on the PDA field and just check Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time

2 - put your GS3 on download mode (with the device turned off, hold volume down, home and power at the same time until it appears the screen with the green droid, and them hit the volume up)

3 - Hit start on Odin and wait the process, (the device will reboot after finish)

4 - After the reboot, turn you device off an this time turn it on on ClockWordMod mode by pressing volume UP (yes now is volume up)+home+power at same time again, and when the SG3 welcome screen appears release those 3 buttons and follow the instructions on screen.

5 - look to install from External SD_card

6 - choose the E210LKLALG7-V3_0907_signed.zip file

7 - install it.

8 - done!

I think that is completely possible!

Well... as an Engineer (okay I`m not hardware/software engineer, but... I`m a mechanical, and mechanics are persistent!) I say that is not impossible.

I'm looking for it also, and I'm doing my experiments (since my wife's SG3 is Brazilian and it comes with Portuguese from Brazil slightly different from Portugal (which I`m using right now because the Korean version only has the Portugal Portuguese...)

So I found the files on the device where the languages are located, so... I'm trying to build a Custom V8 rom with PT-BR (instead PT-PT) on it, or I'm gonna try to manually put the PT-BR on the folder where the languages are stored, but I have sure that should be an Index file (or something like it...) to "call" for the language on the menu... and this file I also found it. but.. I don't have sure if there is only one (what I don`t believe...)

This is the good thing about have one Korean and one "National" version. I can make some "Frankenstein"

Not that it works but... sometimes it does! hahahah

well... I should go to sleep... I will woke-up in 4 hours.... :-S

but I do believe that in the V8 we also have the Russian language... let me check on my device again... and I will post the picture ( I already flashed it into V8 again... hahaa)
