Rooting Sky Vega 4G LTE EX IM-A820L

Hi, i followed the procedure to root the pantech vega racer lte but unfortunately when i check for root access it says , you dont have root access even though the superuser is installed, but when trying to remove the SU program it wont let me at all. I tried twice the procedure of rooting this device , every time it says successful but still unrooted, few programs i installed to check root access but still no joy, did any one have the same issues, any help will be well appreciated

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] cambertoe:
Probably not. T-Mobile's and ATTs 3g bands were different frequencies (1700mhz vs 850/1900). However, in some places T-mobile has started to use 1900mhz and unlocked ATT devices will work. This seems to be random right now and even T-mobile support may not be able to tell you where.

Or you can do what I did, and get nrvate's CM10 build for the i957 (I'm a noob so no links for me yet) then flash this radio: Tmo_SGH-T989_UVLE1_radio.zip (Google it). I get full HSPA+ and have clocked DL speeds up to 19000kbs. Of course YMMV, and no guarantees that it will work for you, won't brick your tab or kill your pets.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] BriCo84:
WHOA!, are you saying you are getting HSPA+ on TMobile!?

can you PM me a link how to do this. I have my tab rooted, but no roms installed yet. Do you have the links for the roms? What recovery are you using to flash?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] cambertoe:
Yeah it works well with the only problem being the power usage is rather high, and drains faster in idle. After looking at logcat I think this radio doesn't go into idle mode properly so keeps sucking power when not in use. Running it's a little less usage (maybe 30 min less) but on idle it drains in 24 hrs. Turning off 3g helps but for me I can live with this to get 20mb down. When ICS for the i957 finally shows up it should be possible to see a better radio get put in CM10 (which is still in early development, but that's what the ROM below is based on).

I'm using TWRP for recovery. After Clockwork being kind of wonky I have seen the light and use TWRP on all my devices. It just works.

The ROM is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1867579 and go to post#2. There are some issues but it runs remarkably well for being like 3 weeks old.

This is the radio I used from a Galaxy SII. Google Tmo_SGH-T989_UVLE1_radio.zip and get it from Dev Host. I found out about it looking at radios for similar hardware and found that the Note is close so I took a chace and did it. So far so good!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] BriCo84:
This is great to hear. I am going to hold off for now, as I would have to open a TMobile account, and I really dont NEED to have this until I start traveling in a few months.

Now what would be AMAZING, is if somehow this tablet could work on verizon. I have a huge corporate account with them and it would cost me next to nothing to add the tablet to the account, assuming it would work. I didn't think it was possible, but then again, I didn't think TMobile high speed connection was possible either.

Any idea if there is a way to get this working on verizon? Or if anyone is even trying?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] cambertoe:
I can tell you that is impossible. T-Mobile uses GSM and Verizon uses CDMA. You can only put a SIM card device on GSM carriers (TMO and ATT).
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] BriCo84:
What about the LTE radios?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] biggie827:
Thanks for the reply. Bought one already and hacking it today. Going to do the same thing i did to

Att's note, radio flash!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] biggie827:
Did you unlock the device, is that necessary?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] cambertoe:
I could not tell you as T-Mobile doesn't have LTE yet. TMO will use a band that the i957 can support, but it will probably take another radio (if any) to work. I've seen 21mb down from HSPA+ so even if I never see LTE I can't be too disappointed :)

Yes it is. The device was locked at ATT and AFAIK there is no other way other than going through a unlock service. I used cell​unlocker.ne​t. $25 and your IMEI gets you a code in a few hours.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] BriCo84:
I can tell you that this is legit. this is what I did. After paying I had the code in minutes and it worked
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] cambertoe:
As I said that is impossible because the carriers use incompatible setups. SIM card carriers (GSM) will only work with other SIM card carriers. Verizon uses CDMA with no SIM cards. The networks themselves are completely different and hardware cannot be hacked to work. Most of the world uses GSM with SIM cards and if you travel overseas, you'll need a GSM device to use unlocked devices on any networks. Blame Verizon for picking a standard that 80% of the world doesn't use :(
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] BriCo84:
Has anyone tried flashing the tmobile high speed radio but on the current rooted stock ICS rom instead of the cm10 rom?

In other words, i have a stock rooted sgh-i957 on samsungs ICS rom and i want to be able to use tmobile high speed network (HSPA+). Does anyone know if thats possible?

[HTC One S] richbouch:
Hi,

My screen stopped working so I entirely disassembled my HTC One S to see if there was LCD connection problem, thus voiding the warranty.

Long story short, I could not find the problem so I will buy a replacement LCD/screen. Problem is, the battery fell on the ground and i managed to step on it, breaking it completely.

I found a replacement battery for the One X on ebay (unable to post link). 1800mAh

Will it work on the One S? The connector looks the same.

Thank you.
[HTC One S] paranoidaditya:
Nope it will not fit I think get yourself a one s battery on parts4repair.com you can find screens tooo

[HTC EVO 3D] propagandax:
Hi All,

I am eligible for my upgrade is 10 days, ready to retire the 3d, and am trying to figure out what phone to get next. Sprint doesn't seem to have many new phones coming out. I have always had HTC phones, ever since windows mobile, and i love sense. I had the galaxy S II for like 3 hours but traded it in for the 3d cause I hated the samsung interface and the size was too big for one handed operation. As far as I can tell the only worthy upgrades now are the EVO 4G LTE and the Galaxy III, both of which are huge. No Iphone 5, not going to happen, dont suggest it. Anyways love to hear your thoughts and opinions. Thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] invince2:
Galaxy nexus will be a good choice ! ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] VictoriousShooter:
I have an idea:

Get an iPhone 5, everyone will want one, then trade it for any phone you want, they'll do it.
[HTC EVO 3D] ElJimmy:
I read over threads of devices I was interested in looked for common issues people were having with phones, trolls and mods. HTC do you have s off or dev unlock can u deal with dev unlock of do you wait for s off. Samsung unlock you phone without restrictions. Performance things you need your phone for games etc. Me personally I chose the gs3 after I swore to never own another Samsung after the instinct.
[HTC EVO 3D] davec1234:
Get a nexus device. Development is crazy good.

Glad I dumped the 3d.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
From what I hear, both are nice. Go to their respective sections here and see which community you like better. Also try them in store first.

Imagika FTW... with Tapatalk 2
[HTC EVO 3D] Zacmanman:
Honestly, if you don't want a far larger phone, there isn't much out there. The Evo 4G LTE, Galaxy Nexus, and Galaxy SIII are all about the same size. The Galaxy Nexus is a better phone than the 3D, but not by much. The Development is far, far better though.

If you don't get your upgrade immediately, you might be able to wait around for another 4.3" phone that has better specs, or you could skip this generation.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgaheer:
Wait until early next year for krait architecture quad core phones

That will be a real improvement, else go with one S
[HTC EVO 3D] gpvlog:
Since the Mogul I have owned HTC phones. I have upgraded every year and my first android phone was the First EVO. I got the EVO 3D on launch because it was a good upgrade over the EVO and I wanted to try the 3D. But this is the first year I havent gone out and replaced my phone on launch. I looked at the specs and did my research of the EVO 4G LTE but spending the 200+ bucks didnt seem ideal for me.

Yes the LTE is a step up from the 3D but I have found that im happy with the 3D as its still very fast and with the ICS update its even better than before. I have decided to skip this generation of phones and wait till the next gen HTC phones come out. Also as gimmicky as the 3D feature is for most, I actually use it quite a bit as I have a 3D TV at home.

What it comes down to in my opinion is this..... Use your upgrade now and get a great phone or wait 6-8 months for the next gen phones to start hitting the market and get an even better phone. This is what im doing myself but again its all about weighing your options.
[HTC EVO 3D] Hreidmar:
I would suggest you to wait for a month or two ang get a new Nexus and as far rumor goes this year it will be at least 3 of them.

But if you really like Sense skin then i guess either go with HTC One X or Evo 4G LTE. :)

if your contract is almost up i would cancel sprint and go with another provider sprint on my area is doing sooo bad and they are charging more then the other companys.

just my opinion
[HTC EVO 3D] Archao:
I would go with the HTC EVO 4G LTE if staying with sprint, personally when my contract is up I'm jumping ship to T-Mobile's new unlimited plan and getting the Samsung Galaxy S III unless there's a better option by then.
[HTC EVO 3D] Zacmanman:
If the OP went to T-mo, I would suggest the One S. It's a very fast phone that's thin and much smaller than the One X and galaxy SIII
[HTC EVO 3D] JAWSxs:
I'm in the same boat as you. Today I changed my mind after reading a few articles about the snapdragon S4 quad-core phones.....and it looks like the wait wont be too long. One of the articles was a new phone by LG ...the Optimus G. I've never had an LG phone, but omg the specs on this are so impressive......the screen alone is almost a reason to wait.

I've only bought HTC phones for the family (evo(s) and 3d) I really wanted an evo lte, but if I bought today my 2 years would start on a phone that's already been out 2-3 months. Buy today or wait you cant lose ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] TXRC51FATBOY:

[HTC EVO 3D] NickMach007:

I'm looking forward to the next iteration of the note, but if I was going to get a new phone today, I think I would get a galaxy nexus iii.

Happy shopping.
[HTC EVO 3D] krayziejoe:
He said the Evo LTE and SGIII are too big, so why in the hell would he want the Note 2? You people need to learn how to read.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Well, in the defense of us people, he said they are huge, but they were the only worthy contenders. This implies he had not ruled them out. Otherwise he would have said not to bother suggesting or discussing them.

At this time, they really are the only two phones for Android power users that Sprint has (besides the 3d of course). My suggestion to check out the dev scene of each device still holds.

[HTC EVO 3D] Jed Dignazio:
FU,

Get the Note 2!!!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] propagandax:
Ya I think for now I am stuck with Sprint. My wife is still in contract. The Note looks cool but honestly would prefer a tablet with those capabilities, the 10.1 i messed around with still falls short on digitizer input in my opinion (I own an old fujistu tablet with windows and the writing input is stellar its just heavy and its windows:) ).

I think my next move is to go to the sprint store and mess around with the G3 and EVO LTE, looks like the nexus has been out for a while, probably be a replacement a few months after i pull the trigger on that. Come in sprint, announce some new phones already, LOL
[HTC EVO 3D] Lothaen:
The new Moto phones look interesting. If they start getting some decent update times out I might consider one next time... although I always get my phones outright and unbranded so no network slows me down
[HTC EVO 3D] doubled822:
I'm eligible for upgrade in April. The SIII looks super nice, and the Note II coming out looks real cool...but my problem is the same, they are huge. Not so sure I want a big honkin' phone like that. ROM development and overall rootability will definitely be deciding factors for me...I might ride out my EVO 3D for a while until some new devices hit the market in the spring.
[HTC EVO 3D] propagandax:
So I think I decided to hold on for the near term. I went to the store and spend a quite a bit of time with the S3 and 4G LTE, I like the 4G for sure but I am in st. louis and dont expect to get 4G LTE until mid next year. I do have good 4G coverage and use it a lot so i cant see myself upgrading now and be only on 3g for 6 months, by then the phone will be almost a year old anyways. Doest seem like a good investment. At this point I think i might just look into an extended life battery, other than the slightly bigger screen I think that is the other major benefit to the 4G LTE phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] ninjoe8:
How are you already eligible for an upgrade? I bought the 3D at launch and not eligible till April.
[HTC EVO 3D] propagandax:
Somehow someway I am eligible for an upgrade once per year. It pisses my wife off she has wait 2. Although my contract date is actually farther out, 2013 something. I don't know why but i have been riding the wave for a while, well see how long it lasts.

Hello everybody, I'm going to be getting a replacement model for my exhibit due to speaker problems. So in order to have a successful transfer of my content. Do I just need to make a nandroid backup, put it on my PC, and when my new one is rooted, I just import it to the SD card and flash the back up to my new replacement? I'd appreciate an answer to this.
[General Questions and Answers] brokenAndroid93:
This is so pathetic how a basic question like this gets absolutely no answers at all after all this time. Ironically this will probably get someone to reply telling me off with a bunch of BS. Always seems to happen that way. Can a moderator please delete this? It will probably get overlooked for that as well.
[General Questions and Answers] SimonTS:
I didn't see this first time round, but you will probably find that part of the reason it got ignored is because people get fed up with constantly answering the same questions over and over again.

A nandroid backup from one phone to another (even the same model) is not guaranteed to work. Several reasons - the hardware build sometimes changes slightly during manufacturing runs, some software may tie into the IMEI or hardware ID of the phone, other reasons which I'm not clever enough to understand.

Your best bet is to;-

Do a nandroid backup anyway - you won't lose anything by that

Ensure all your stuff (contacts, apps settings etc) is backup up to Google

Use Titanium Backup to backup all of your apps, data etc so you can restore them one-by-one on the new phone if you need to.

I hope this helps a little and is not just considered BS. As for bumping a thread after two weeks just to say "please delete this thread" - a little pointless and very childish :eek:
[General Questions and Answers] larso69:
Yes it will.
[General Questions and Answers] brokenAndroid93:
Im not trying to be childish. I know basic netiquette on forums and i tried to find a post already existing so I can avoid that problem. But i have no idea where to find it and im not sure how to ask someone. Do i just ask a admin or moderator? I just got pissed that day because me not being able to find a existing thread and not knowing who to ask while avoiding getting reprimanded is constant.
[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
Um actually... you use Google to find your answer. If you get results, then voila! If you don't, THEN you make the thread. If you ask someone, its rather rude because you are asking them to do work for you.

Hi guys,

Just now got a new Atrix 4G off Amazon. It's an AT&T unlocked one. I am totally confused with all the processes posted here about unlocking the boot loader and stuff. I used to be a Defy user, but rooting and installing ROMs in Defy were a bit simpler than this.

Model - MB860

System - 4.5.141.MB860.ATT.en.US

Android version - 2.3.6

Kernel - 2.6.32.9

I want to flash either MIUI or Cyanogenmod. Should I unlock the bootloader first or root first. Can anybody help me out, pointing the right links? I couldn't find any guide for 2.3.6. and I don't want to brick my device.

Thanks a ton in advance

Wolvish
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deggy:
Whenever getting my Atrix replaced by Best Buy Mobile, I find these steps easier to follow in lesser words:

1. download ROM of choice and place it on the internal memory card

2. use automatic boot loader script

3. flash Romracer's recovery via command prompt

4. flash ROM

5. profit!

It's just easier to do this vs. rooting the phone/stock ROM first, finding that install-recovery.sh crap, and then doing the process to unlock the bootloader/flashing custom ROMs.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TotalBS:
Read the threads you think don't cover 2.3.6. They have recent comments so you should assume people commenting might be on 2.3.6. I was on the same version as you and I'm unlocked and running CM10. The titles of the methods aren't updated but they still work (some of them) for yours. The threads god into amazing detail about how you do it, but make sure you read the comments too because those are more up to date than the original post. And if you say it's unlocked already then why would you unlock it again? If you boot up your phone and it says unlocked in the upper right corner when the motorola symbol is up then you are past the hard part. After that just get a custom recovery (Romracers) and flash your ROM
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WolVish:
It does not show 'unlocked' during boot up. It's unlocked from AT&T (working with my SIM card). Isn't that different from a unlocked bootloader? So I should do that pudding thing next? BTW what is automatic boot loader script? :confused:

I read that downgrading from 4.5.141 is causing hardbrick, that's why I'm scared..
