Is it possible to fix this on nonsense rom ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] twelc:
I originally had trouble with GPS working intermittently and found the thread about bending the pins slightly and it worked. Now I have wonderful GPS signal but can't send or receive calls or messages.

WiFi works, GPS works, I have 5 full bars but I can't place or receive calls.

I suspect that opening the phone resulted in damaging something, but what? If the antenna is damaged than why would I have 5 bars?

I googled everything I could think of and couldn't come up with any clue, anything new to try would be helpful.

I was running Cyanogenmod 9 and ended up flashing the stock ROM but *NOTHING* helps.

Thanks,

Tim

Have you checked your APN settings?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] twelc:
reply:

Yes, I verified the APN settings. Even tried various other APN options that were recommended on other threads. Still nothing.

It's really weird, the signal displays sometimes 3, 4, or 5 bars and my other ATT phone works fine using the same SIM card.

Fixed - sent back to Samsung

I sent it back to Samsung for diagnostics. They said

"Liquid damaged on PBA components"

- which means the phone board assembly (main board).

Now I know for sure that I didn't get any liquid on any part of the phone what-so-ever, but since the repair was free, I'm not going to complain.

A suspicion is that the technicians are only given a few category codes to document the failure mode for the phone, and this seemed to be the closest one to the technician who looked at it.

What really happened is a mystery that may last for all time... :eek:

I can't wait to get the phone back so I can go rooted again!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tweebs:
Bah

I have 2 Notes purchased second hand which exhibit the same symptoms. I tried everything, changing ROMs (including stock), modems, carrier unlocking, different SIM cards, restoring IMEIs, changed the power connecter board where I believe the cell ANT is, always got the 'Not Registered on Network' when trying to make a call. I could deactivate HSDPA and LTE in the service menu and still connect on the EDGE network.

There are a few threads on this subject, but the only way I've seen it resolved is sending the phone in for a replacement mainboard. Unfortunately that wasn't an option for me. Buyer Beware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] twelc:
Well, I thought Samsung was going to repair it but they sent the phone back saying it was unrepairable.

They slapped a red dot behind where the battery sits and there's some kind of red plastic behind the antenna for the phone. So I know they took the back apart.

I called them and they said it's unrepairable, and I asked how can it be unrepairable - can't you repair the phone you invented? Anyway it's hard to get anywhere with them.

It's kind of weird though, everything works but no network lock.

Well, I guess I'll chock it up to experience and sell it on ebay and buy a used one.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] twelc:
Samsung refused to repair the unit under warranty - which is fine because I am responsible for breaking it and I don't expect them to pay for my mistake. However, I asked them to fix it and bill me for the damages and they said they couldn't repair it.

Huh, so I asked them how they can build such a nice and complex phone but can't figure out how to repair it?

They flat out refused so I asked to have it escalated.

The put me in contact with another customer service number and the first thing he asked was would I be willing to pay for the repair - of course! That's all I wanted in the first place.

Anyway, I paid $200 and this is the response concerning the problem and resolution. I should get the phone back by tomorrow in like new condition!

Original Problem:

TECHNICAL INQUIRY - LCD / TOUCH PANEL / LED - TOUCH SCREEN CRACKED - STD/LCD FEE

Problem found:

BAD BGA COMPONENT - LCD DAMAGED - ABUSE - REAR COVER - COSMETICS

Solution:

Hi,

I have rooted DDLF2 (using CF-ROOT). Now that I no more need root (stopped using an app that needed root), I need to get back to stock DDLF2.

I have already unrooted it using recovery mode > unroot.zip method.

All I need is 100% samsung stock DDLF2 on the phone now, without the cf-kernel, cf-recovery and apps that the rooting process brought in.

Please advise...

take the CR-ROOT zp file, open up with winrar, replace the file with DDLF2 normalboot.img, than flash with odin PDA. you will get back the stock kernel or maybe you will have boot looping, if not bootlooping, reboot the phone once, than factory reset.

try at your own risk.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] klliier12:
use the android development section and download the ddlf2 files then use odin to flash it
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ASMI1:
Maybe this happened because you didn't clean install so here are the steps:

Download XXKPE from here.

Flash XXKPE by following the XXKPE install instructions (the archive should contain odin3 v1.83 or v1.85 if not here is odin3 v1.85)

Download DDLF2 from here (DDMF1 is the latest value pack so it's smoother and with better battery life)

Install DDFL2 or DDMF1( recommended) by following the value pack instructions (use only odin3 v3.04)

that's it, enjoy your stock rom

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueEyes99:
I got my Razr i yesterday and so far I am surprised (positively and negatively) as to how my Razr i performs.

One thing that really bothers me is the missing USB Mass Storage. At work I have no way of accessing the storage of my phone because I have no admin rights. Thats why I can not install drivers to access the MTP mode. PTP works at work but not surprisingly I can only see the pictures. It would be nice to have an option either to activate USB Mass Storage on our Razr i or somehow make PTP see all the phone.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PELLET Nolwenn:
Yes that's a big pbl!

For the moment you can download on the market an app to mount your SD card ( "Multi Mount SD-Card Lite" for example) but it's just for the external card, not for the internal..
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueEyes99:
Thanks for the tip with Multi Mount SD-Card Lite, it didnt work though or i cant configure it properly. I installed it and it told me something about mtp fix needed and to reboot my device which i did but still it didn't work and that msg appeared everytime even thought mtp fix was activated. everytime i connected it to the computer and pressed the widget it got the message sd card unmounted and on the computer only the automatic mtp assistent started

strange, this app has absolutly no effect on my phone.

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueEyes99:
original thread of this app is here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1389375

and it clearly states:

MTP

Another thing to note is that devices using MTP (such as the Galaxy Nexus) most probably won't be able to use UMS via the App at all. There have been reported a few suggestions to fix that, but atm those fixes doesn't work. I'm working on that, but i'm doing this in my sparetime and don't have a device that uses MTP myself, so it's hard to work on that. Anyway you can try.

seeing as the Razr I is using MTP as well, no wonder it is not working

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jaggyjagz:
So I've read thru many threads on here and found people that seemed to have flashed their tmobile ROM onto their AT&T device in order to get proper 3G+ speeds.

1) Does this actually work?

2) Is it better to flash the other way (if possible, AT&T rom onto Tmobile) in order to get maximum service from both phones? What is the best/better phone to purchase for future LTE future proofing?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] TEKHD:
I am also on the t-mobile Q&A section looking for answers... the best phone for future proof and LTE is the AT&T version... no doubt... now... I am waiting for an AT&T Stock Rooted WITH MODEM included in the same flash zip before I begin testing myself... I already ordered from ebay a dual sim card adapter for the Note 2, and the Note 2 is already unlocked... so... any news on this would be great...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] distortedloop:
Sounds like you might be in the same boat as me. Anxious to get a Note II but not sure which network to commit to with it. Your comment about needing to get a TMo ROM to get "proper 3G+ speeds" is disconcerting. It also pushes me a bit towards TMo since it's got the LTE radio promised for future update.

What exactly is wrong with the stock device's 3G+ speeds on AT&T?

Where I live and work (Los Angeles area - San Fernando & Santa Clarita valleys), LTE's not activated, and no firm date when it will come our way. AT&T's HSPA data speeds here aren't anything to write home about, but neither are TMo's when I tested one of their devices in the local shop. My AT&T phone is lucky to get 4Mb/s down, 0.2Mb/s up, and generally only about 2-3Mb/s down. The TMo Galaxy SIII I tested got 4MB/s down. Hard numbers to swallow when I've got an SIII on VZW LTE pulling down 20Mb/s in the same area.

Jedy 3 is an international rom, not T-Mobile with wifi calling... with 3.5G on T-mobile on Jedi 3? (HSPA+)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jaggyjagz:
Clarification Requested

I need clarification on this. Just because the ROM flashed worked, doesn't necessarily mean the proper AWS radio's were activated to attain 4G speeds that are required on T-mobile (this is nothing to do with LTE).

Are you saying that by flashing the tmobile ROM onto your at&t note 2, you are able to attain all connections (not just Edge, but HSPA+ 4G) with your AT&T device to tmobile using AWS? I know Tmobile has begun refarming out to 4G on a different band that is compatible with more handsets, so you might just be in an area where they have already done so, which mistakes you into believing that you are actually connecting via the old school AWS Tmobile bands, when you aren't.

I really need to decide which phone I want to take the risk on - The tmobile LTE is locked apparently, doesn't seem to show as many capable bands as the AT&T version, and also, I'm not sure what to bank on in terms of there being a software vs hardware lock (Would be nice if the tmobile can be unlocked via software to fully operate on all LTE modes that the AT&T supports).

I'm actually in Canada, and would probably end up needing to purchase the Wind version in order to get what I'm looking for (since Wind operates on the same AWS frequencies as tmobile). But losing out on Bell/Rogers/Telus LTE in the process is just something I don't want to do either.

Going to have to see what can be unlocked via software on all these different phones................
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ysr84:
I would also appreciate a response from someone if this is possible... using T-Mobile ROM and modem to work on At&t (with aws frequencies).... just like the S2 I717 mod which after flashing was working with aws frequencies....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] TEKHD:
Yes... it should... as soon as I get my dual sim card adapter for the Note 2... I will post a million results/combinations here on T-Mobile and AT&T forums... I just don't want to open the back cover 30 times a day and swap sims a bunch of times... with the adapter I just insert the 2 sim cards and done... testing all the way from that point on...

AT&T Note 2 on T-mobile 3G/4G?

I have the SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 from AT&T, unlocked via unlock code from AT&T. No root, stock AT&T android 4.1.1. I got the t-mobile microSIM card with an unlimited talk and 2GB unlimited data plan, but I can not get tmobile 3G/4G working reliably. I get HSDPA/HSPAP/UMTS/EDGE randomly. 80% EDGE, 20% high speed between 4-8mbps down, 0.7-1.9mbps up. I am in Los Angeles, CA.

I know my SGH-I317 does not have the 1700MHz antenna needed for t-mobile 3G/4G data, but somehow I get 3G/4G 20% of the time. I have not adjusted any special settings on my phone, other than to reset the APN to default epc .tmobile .com. My guess I am getting 3G/4G via the 2100MHz antenna for download, but without the 1700MHz for fast upload, I get 0.7-1.9mbps only. But most of the time I am stuck at EDGE.

So has anyone gotten the AT&T Note II to reliably work on t-mobile 3G/4G? is there a special setting I need to enter on my phone? does flashing the t-mobile ROM on the AT&T phone solve any of the 3G/4G issue? or will I lose the unlock on my phone when I root or when I flash t-mobile ROM on my AT&T Note 2?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Yea your right...hey i know this has nothing to do with this thread but i want to ask you something. You have the exact set up that i am currently using.I also have an unlocked At&t Note 2 SGH-i317 on T-mobile running CleanRom SE1.5. I absoulutely love it. I like the stock look with better performance. Are you using another Kernel? And im also thinking about flashing a new Rom what would you recommend? Im kinda looking for something Similar to Clean but better battery life. Any Suggestions???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] PUTALE:
I am actually using the CleanROM 4.5 (haven't flashed 4.6.1 as I do not see much new on that ROM). I am actually using it on the stock kernel because I am not a huge flasher like many of the members here. Since Note 2 is my daily driver, I don't want to keep updating it and customize it after each ROM flashing:). I like the CleanROM 4.5 since it was the way I got it and I just updated to the new version. The battery life is pretty good as I can last a day or more with moderate use.

Hello everyone, I have a problem with the method: Downgrade / Unbrick Ville S4. To be noted that I bricked my One s involuntarily. Now if you follow the above method, when I give the code: $ lsusb watch-1 is seen the device correctly, but then when I press the power button for 10 seconds, the device disappears and I get this: Qualcomm, Inc. and continues back to scanning the device. Then do this code: $ ls / dev / sd * and of course the device is not connected. It 's like if I had a problem on the USB ports that do not maintain stable connection with the device, or my One s resets the time. I've used both Ubuntu and Mint13. Do you have any solution? Thank you. Sorry for my English.

Best off posting in the downgrade thread but if you think usb is the issue they try another pc.

I did the downgrade first try but like usaff22 says you need to spam $ ls dev/sd* when you reboot using the Up button and then hit enter in till it pops up.
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
Disregard this if it's obvious, but the command you should use is:

ls /dev/sd*

(So you dont type the '$'-sign (that's your prompt) and there is only one space between 'ls' and '/dev/sd*' and no other spaces.)

You could do something like:

while [[ 1 ]] ; do ls /dev/sd* ; sleep 1 ; echo "Again..." ; done
