Dude.. please. Chillax. I'm not arguing with you, simply stating my thoughts. No need to get aggrivated :rolleyes:

I'm letting you discuss... when did I say you couldn't.....? I have my $.02 too, though.

By the way, when I said #firstworldproblems it was meant as a joke, not as an insult. I have them too, you know
[Networking] Snow_fox:
I am not aggro'd just discussing for the most part.

I more went off on a tanget and never reigned in the train of thought.
[Networking] gagdude:
Sorry mate, it just seemed like you got angry at me.
[Networking] Snow_fox:
Oh no, I just have adhd tendencies like rambling.

At any rate, I am really hoping LG decides to throw out some way to unlock the bootloader. I'd really love to have a quad core device with an IPS display this time around.

I don't have anything against the SAMOLED displays but, I would personally prefer a sharper image to a more saturated image.
[Networking] Deleted member 3105162:
AT&T Atrix 4g user here...having a tough time deciding what to upgrade to as well. I've toyed with the idea of the One X and the SGS3 but neither excites me too much. Optimus G is very temping from a hardware perspective, but LG's lack of update support and a locked bootloader are a real put off. Will probably just end up grabbing an sgs3 because it will have the most rom support of any at&t phone.

I would prefer a nexus...but I just can't afford to spend $350+ on a phone.
[Networking] gagdude:
My family plan on AT&T is breaking up. I've decided to go T mobile prepaid with the new Nexus, my dad, getting a job at US Cellular, will get a free plan there along with a $200 discount (he chose the S2) and my mom is sticking with AT&T for the iphone 5

Well good riddance, I had no service in various parts of school and at the local mall
[Networking] Snow_fox:
I would wait for a little while at least and see if the Optimus G gets an unlocked bootloader.. it would be godmode then. But, I have to wait till Dec 1st anyway.

Not entirely a bad thing.. Tmo has great selection of phones and AFAIK is a little more open with bootloaders and stuff.

I'm only getting the Nexus 4 because my current phone is pretty beaten and battered by now. (not to mention 2 years old)
[ZTE Grand X V970] ArcheoGian:
Hi to all, I'm writing here because I had my first problems with my v970 (with etotalk rom). This evening I checked my mobile and I found that none of the sim was active (I was not in airplane mode) and I could not activate them, as if they were not in their slots. Meanwhile the upper part of the device began to heat up, so I tought it could be an antenna/receiver problem. I almost forgot to say that I installed Truecaller (deleting Contapps) and updated facebook and few others apps less than one hour before the event, but I already uninstalled them to exclude some of the possible causes. I'll gladly listen to any advice. Thank's in advance. GL
[ZTE Grand X V970] post-mortem:
Restart, and see if it continues.
[ZTE Grand X V970] ArcheoGian:
Already tried a lot of times, with or without sim cards. I also noticed an abnormal use of battery.
[ZTE Grand X V970] post-mortem:
When did the problem start? What did you do before it started? Does your cellphone always have no signal, or does it come & go (sometimes SIM works, sometimes it doesn't)? Have you checked your APN settings?
[ZTE Grand X V970] ArcheoGian:
The problem started yesterday and I never experimented It till now. As I Said, before I encountered It, I updated some apps from the market and I changed the default caller manager (should I call It in this way?) with Truecaller. I also deleted my sim contacts

. I can't check apn because there are no apns to check (Android shows me the voice "mobile networks" but I can't select it

Update: I tried to restore the original rom, but the problem persists. I also made a check with the recovery, and it shows me that the device cannot detect sim cards. I begin to think that it's an hardware problem (ouch). Am I right?
[ZTE Grand X V970] post-mortem:
What did you do in recovery that checks SIM cards? Are you talking about CWM recovery?
[ZTE Grand X V970] ArcheoGian:
Nope, it's the faulty recovery that etotalk sent me with the phone. I would like to install the cwm and flash another rom, but I'll leave that as the last option
[ZTE Grand X V970] post-mortem:
If the recovery they sent you is faulty, then what good is it? If there's a custom recovery available for your phone, you might as well go with it, not that it'll solve anything by itself.

You might try inserting some kind of shim along with the SIM card to see if the extra pressure help make contact with the leads. Careful, of course, that whatever you stick in there doesn't stay behind.
[ZTE Grand X V970] ArcheoGian:
I know about the recovery, but I was trying to don't invalidate the warranty (as if I'll ever use it...). Now I'm charging the phone, it's already the third time today...
[ZTE Grand X V970] post-mortem:
Aw, heck. If you've got warranty, just send it in.
[ZTE Grand X V970] ArcheoGian:
Yep, I've got warranty, but sending it in China will cost me almost as much as buying a new one :)
[ZTE Grand X V970] ArcheoGian:
Ok, I flashed a recovery and a custom rom, but nothing happened.The signal is still absent and the antenna heats up the same way as before. I tried to enter engineer mode and it shows me messages as "com.android.internal.telephony.CommandExcepti on: RADIO_NOT_AVAILABLE", "3G off. Cannot set", ecc... It also shows me "invalid IMEI" if I try to look at it and I cannot change it back with the AT +EGMR command (it says "Radio on" and "SIM State: ABSENT", altough the SIM card is in its slot).
[ZTE Grand X V970] post-mortem:
I think you have to crack the case.
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Hmmm... if your phone is reporting invalid IMEI numbers then I would try first to get that working as it should. Read this tutorial and re-write your IMEI numbers.

Then I would try the latest stock ROM, which is available on ZTE support website. Here is the direct link to the ROM.

If your phone still doesn't work after that, then I'm afraid you have a hardware problem. :(
[ZTE Grand X V970] prinxo:
I have had the telephone for more than one month with no problem. Trying every ROM made by Bruno with no problem at all with signal, but...

About 4 days ago, I started suffering exactly the same problems stated by ArcheoGian. I have tried everything (installing older Roms, rebooting, changing SIMs from 1 to 2, etc.) but unfortunately with no success. I just have to try to install the original ROM, but I supose it will be the same.

Afer a few reboots, I can make the telephone to search for a network, it founds it, it connects, it transfers data, I can make calls, but ramdomly (can be after 30 seconds, 30 minutes or maximum one hour) it disconnects and the red X of death (Xbox 360 times :p) appears on top of the screen.

I can try to go and return from airplane mode, or search for networks that it won't re-connect.

I fear it can become a typical problem for this phone.

I am "delighted" to send it back to China and wait for two months to get it back (after explaining it to the seller and so on). Fingers crossed :mad:
[ZTE Grand X V970] ArcheoGian:
@prinxo: did you buy it from eto...k? (I don't know if I can write the entire name of the seller)

Update: I tried everything it was told me (except to crack the case, at least not yet...), my last hope is to manually insert the IMEIs inside the data folder. There's just one problem: none of the methods suggested in the link posted by bcgngm works on my phone, so I need to generate the IMEIs whit my pc (I couldn't open the exe with windows 7, I'll try with win xp in a while, otherwise I have to ask someone to create it for me).
[ZTE Grand X V970] prinxo:
No, I bought it from another seller at Aliexpress.

As I thought: I tried to re-install an original ROM, and everything remains the same. I thought I was successfull but after one hour the phone disconnected itself from the network. After that moment, I need about 3 re-boots to get signal again and it lasts for just a few minutes.

At this point, I would disregard a software problem.

Happy happy to have to send it back to China.
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Why do you say it is not working? My preferred method is to use the adb commands (and for that you have to install Android SDK). Don't forget that when you type the commands there is no output message on the screen. The phone has to be restarted so that changes take effect.
[ZTE Grand X V970] ArcheoGian:
The third and the fourth ones are the only methods to restore IMEI I didn't try, just because I never used sdk and adb (and I'm not sure to be able to use them). I followed the others options (I also created the IMEI file with the russian program), but it continues to show me the "invalid IMEI" message. Can you help me, maybe showing me a good walkthrough?
[ZTE Grand X V970] post-mortem:
This ADB Tutorial looks easy to follow. Check it out!

Hi everyone,

Im looking for a Daily Driver rom for my verizon galaxy S3 SCH-I535, but not sure which one to pick. I've herd a lot of good things about Paranoid Android but not sure if i should go with it.

P.S. im looking for one that the camera, netflix, and streaming apps work.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
questions belong in the question forum.

try a few. you have touchwiz based roms and CM10 based roms.

they provide different experiences. you need to try them to decide which you like.

read through the threads and decide which best suits you. everyone will give you a different answer because everyone has different preferences. you need to decide for yourself.

This didn't work, so I replaced mms.apk with this, and this time, the messaging application was vanished and a new messaging application showed up with name like com.messaging.something but it did not open. I also tried copying it with the name "messaging.apk" and it didn't work either.

Long story short, I will miss sense 4's messaging :(

Hello,

I have been using this site for days now and accomplished everything I have needed to so far.

I rooted and flashed about 6 roms and found the Aeon v1.4 to be the best for me regarding my infuse 4g.

I tried to install the " Unofficial CM9 rom" for the ics look and it turned my phone into a paperweight.

Symptoms:

-Phone will not go into recovery

-will not turn on

-when attempting to turn it on, i get a barely noticable millisecond flash and then nothing.

The phone, however, will go into download mode.

I tried odin and did the repartition, pit, etc..

I tried heimdal (however its spelled) and it wont recognize drivers. (i installed drivers and they worked for odin)

I basically just want to put Aeon back on my phone and actually use my phone.. nothing else. I would appreciate any insight into the matter.

Thank you very much.

Chris.

5 days and counting.. =(

Thank you very much, I have tried those. This is my fifth day doing this and i cant seem to get Heimdall to work. I tried doing as much research as possible before posting a problem.

For Heimdall even though when it asks for drivers I can click on "Samsung usb composite device" and reflash but it just says "installing drivers" and loops over again.

For Odin its just not continuing to increase the progress bar or add anything new to the log screen.. Pretty confused at this point.

My phone is bricked from flashing the wrong rom. I dont mind which OS i go to because im going to end up flashing Aeon v1.4 again anyways since it looked and worked great.

Thanks for the links!

[Well, i still cant get odin to get past the factoryfs.rfs ...
