[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] btemtd:
How can you say the specs seem to be the same when they are COMPLETELY different? The only thing the same is the ram & LTE but even the LTE bands are all different... The US variant only has Dual Core Snapdragon when the I9305 is a Quad CORE Exynos

Different different and Yehh ummm DIFFerent
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] AndreiLux:
There are US variants of the M3, especially for T-Mobile. Calm down.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] btemtd:
So your saying there are I9305 being sold in the US on Plans? I am sure US t-mobile has the 1900 band but thats not LTE, I wouldnt think they would sell these on a contract knowing the LTE wont work.. Unless there is a whole new version with Exynos Quad/2GB ram and runs on the american LTE? Which one is this?

I have heard of someone in america using the I9305 but it was the European/Australian Variant. And there is the I9305T which is Telstra Australia Variant and another European company has there own model the I9305N... But yeh I never heard of America having there own Model of the I9305.

Edit: when the op mentioned At&T it triggered the snapdragon thought lol which i know are pretty different, and it is why i said they were, And I was calm by the way I seem to use caps when i want to emphasize words :D

Anyone care for a Jellybeans Lock screen or Wallpaper? I took this macro shot of some the other day.

Only if you're using a JB ROM of course, otherwise it automatically self destructs after 10 seconds!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] r7r8:
I am using the Live with Walkman and i tried out a few roms in between.. I am currently on stock rom(.587). I never had any battery issues after coming back to stock from custom roms... But now my battery is going down at enormous rate.. I had it full charged at night.. When i woke up around 8 hrs later.. It was 2%. I have active WiFi connection. My Android OS used 82% battery... So i went to recovery and restored from the backup. I also calibrated my battery. Now the WiFi uses around 50% battery and the rest is taken by Cell Standby and Phone Idle..

Please help!! :crying:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] m4nz:
I think you should flash your phone again with flash tool, and then calibrate again and give it some days to become normal...

Just my opinion... :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] r7r8:
Sure.. I'll try that... Thanks :)

Ill tell u how it goes about :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] r7r8:
I installed a custom rom and after 2-3 day.. Now my battery is working normally... Thanks a lot :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] m4nz:
Happy to hear that... Btw, which custom Rom did you install?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hassaan_july:
You battery drain mostly depends upon the Kernel you are using.. Stock kernel are not good for battery.. I have used Mesa Kernel on Stock it works far better then Stock and other kernels
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] r7r8:
I am currently using Xperia Ultimate HD 2.0...

Planning to put JellyVanilla today :D

Thanks.. ill try using that.. Any faults or bugs though?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hassaan_july:
You might get Wifi issue ... there are two possible solutions..

Restart your device twice or thrice.. Still if don't work..

Then Go to Root System Folder and Delete wlanfixed file.. you need root browser and Root permission to delete it..

and try latest Mesa kernel i.e V-2.3
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] r7r8:
Thanks...

I'll try that!! :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
I just bought a 16gb class 4 sdcard from target for 25 bucks and I'm having all kinds of problems getting my device to mount it...I've blown out the SDcard spot on the back of the phone,multi booted a lot of times..I have a 8gb class 2 card and it works..its starting to die because of multi recovery partitions so I had to get a new one...oh both cards are micro sdcard hc....
[Optimus One, P500, V General] TheAndroidGeek:
Format it from your phone not with a computer
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
It can't be formatted when its not being recognized...even my ps3 isn't recognizing it...when I go into recovery and try to do anything I get an error in mounting card..which makes me think I have to change the cards partition from whatever it is now to fat32
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Christian Nothing:
did you tried another kernel to see if it has some problems

for me on few kernels on ics and gb the sd card made me few problems and my sd card is with 32 gb class 4 and is new so i tried some other kernels to see if it works and worked i had this problem sometimes on gb with djnoxd's kernel
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mrcorey:
Supposedly 32gb class 10 is supported. My 8gb class 6 works well. If your PC can't recognize it you may have a bad sd
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
I just bought this sdcard....its literally not even 4 hours old...I'm on stock kernel so I'll try the kernel switches and see what it does
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Christian Nothing:
after flashing the new kernel don't forget to format sd card in settings
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
Well let's hope the phone would recognize the card while in cwm recovery...it can't format a card if it doesn't detect it
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
I'm assuming the 16gb card I just purchased is a class 4
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Christian Nothing:
look on your sd card for a "c" letter with 4 in middle and look if you see the symbol
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
Yep its a class 4
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
Even with the 8gb card..I sometimes had problems...I'd boot in to recovery and try to flash a zip and that error of not being able to mount would be there so I'd have to take the battery out and the card,blow the card and slot place than reboot into recovery and then it would work
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
Its annoying, this phone supposedly supports up to 32gb...it should be as easy as popping out the old one to replace a better one
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Christian Nothing:
maybe your slot card is damaged
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
If that were the case,than I wouldn't be able to use the 8gb card either...I think the 16gb card comes pre formatted on an exFAT partition and in order for any android phone to recognize it. It needs to be fat32 format...I also have problems detecting the 16gb card with the xmb of ps3...ps3 only recognizes fat32....if all of this is the case I need a good partitioning windows program. .this 16gb card is a brand new card
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gabo_lope:
Well...

I really think that the problem is with your sd card slot, because if you are saying that you had problems with the 8gb and the 16gb, also im telling you this because on my phone i tried a lot of sd cards, and i didn't have any trouble...

Also, my brand new sd card 16gb class 4, i didn't have to format it, i just put it on the phone, it was already formated fat32
[LG Optimus 3D] iodak:
Try to flash prada baseband it is under IMEI tutorial with lg flash tool. Then see what is your IMEI an try insert old one with hyperterminal.

I woud first flash 21kdz and do factory reset so you know that AP part is ok. Then flash baseband only CP file.
[LG Optimus 3D] Guantonio:
Hi iodak, and thanks for the reply! If you're referring to the 'LGP940_CP.fls' baseband file, that was one of the first things I did (method 1 in OP). Just tried it again and getting the same error!

The IMEI is blank.

When the port setting 'CP Image Download' is selected, the connection to the phone is lost. The terminal window does not respond because the 'Intel USB Flash loader utility' is not detected, hence no driver and no port for it to communicate with the phone.

Also tried that (Method 2 in OP), keeps hanging when trying to communicate with the IFX Modem and fails shortly after.

Flashed several different kdz files on my own P920 without any probelms :(
[LG Optimus 3D] Guantonio:
Tried it with the 910K Ohm resistor between pins 4 and 5 of the USB cable but still the same. :(

Not had a chance to test the cable as I've lent out my multimeter to a friend.

Given it to a friend that has an Octopus box to try and repair the IMEI that way.
[LG Optimus 3D] kryss81:
Hi, i have the exact same problem with my p920 and tried the same ways without success.

Could you solve the problem somehow? Octopus box?

Thanks, Krisz
[LG Optimus 3D] Guantonio:
Hi Krisztián, unfortunately the Octopus box didn't work. It failed to detect the phone in both 'Modem' or 'OMAP' modem. Also tried modifying the original LG USB cable with both a 910k resistor and a 56k resistor (as suggested by Furious Gold) without any luck. Hence pointing to a hardware fault!

The problem with the documented method of restoring the imei is that the corrupt/damaged ifx modem prevents the phone from going into 'CP Image Download' mode and thus allowing Windows to detect and install the 'Intel USB Flash Loader utility' so that Tutty can write/flash a new imei number to the modem.

As a work around you can try putting the phone into a mode whereby it iss ready to be flashed aka 'omapboot Download Mode' (Button with yellow arrows followed by Korean letters). Follow steps 2 to 9 in this guide by xbsall: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1942836

When you get to this screen:

Then:

If it works, try doing the "Extra Step for P920 User's" in xbsall's guide.

Hope that helps and let me know how you get one.
[LG Optimus 3D] kryss81:
Hi Guan,

Thanks for the suggestion, but it did not work.

I can put the phone into download mode. (volume up +cable+power button), after that the computer recognize it correctly.

Com port is changed to 41, i connect with tutty to the com41 of the phone, but there is no response after.

I can not give any command, only the green cursor is there. (i tried to type and press enter even like this but no response.)

So what do you say? is this phone now equal to an ipod touch? :) only hardware fix can solve it?

Thanks, Krist
[LG Optimus 3D] n3fta:
I'm having this same problem, hopefully someone comes up with a solution.
[LG Optimus 3D] Guantonio:
Hi n3fta, is there any signs of physical damage on yours? Also what ROM and baseband do you have installed?
[LG Optimus 3D] n3fta:
There is no physical damage to the phone it looks brand new. The phone is on 20c just a stock gingerbread rom, I'm not sure about the baseband. I purchased this phone from ebay with missing IMEI after losing mine. I was aware of the restore IMEI thread so when I noticed this particular phone for $100 I thought it was a bargain and figured I could repair it in 10 minutes...I was wrong.

I've tried flashing the phone every way I know how and it hangs at waiting for IFX Modem no matter what I do. I'm really hoping this is just a software issue and there is no damaged hardware, but I'm beginning to have my doubts.

I decided to uninstall all drivers and now I cannot install the OMAP drivers. The phone will not go into download mode at all, nor does it vibrate like it should when going into download mode, I probably should have mentioned that the phone has not vibrated like it was going into download mode since I started messing with it. OMAP just keeps flashing over and over when I plug the device in with no battery, but does not appear once battery is inserted. I had no problem at all getting my old phone into download mode, so I suspect this has something to do with our problem.
[LG Optimus 3D] n3fta:
Just noticed I can flash roms using CWM. I'm now on Thiaz but it has made no difference, is there anyway we can flash fls files using CWM? Not sure if it would help or not just throwing it out there.
[LG Optimus 3D] alphatia:
Listen bro if map flashes its OK it happens to me and if it doesn't vibrate in download mode that's OK ...just install all the drivers again and restart your PC and the start again and flash a gb with LG flash tool..wish u the best and give feedback so we can help u.:)
[LG Optimus 3D] n3fta:
Well I installed drivers again and it appears to be going into download mode and device manager shows LGE CDMA USB SERIAL PORT (COM41)

It still will not get past waiting for IFX Modem, even when trying to use the WKParks Omap for fastboot it doesn't ever get past waiting, every other program hangs at waiting for IFX Modem.
[LG Optimus 3D] alphatia:
Try another PC with windows 7 and try another cable
[LG Optimus 3D] n3fta:
I have tried using windows 7 and another cable but it's still not working.

My problem is the exact same as the OP of this thread. IFX Modem not responding and no new device being installed in tutty.
[LG Optimus 3D] n3fta:
Still having this problem, anybody have any idea what the problem might be?

I cannot restore IMEI unless I can get a connection in putty but no new device is being installed when I dial 3845#*920# and select cp image download or cp usb. I have tried this on 3 different PC's XP, Win7 32 and Win7 64 the result is always the same...no new device installed.

When trying to restore using LG Mobile Software it always crashes at 15% during installation.

LG Flash Tool and Smart Flash both fail at waiting for IFX modem.

Using the KDZ installer it always errors out early in the installation process.

Is there any other way to restore my IMEI? Are there any alternate methods of communication with tutty or hyperterminal?

Would going back to Froyo possibly help? I would have tried it by now but can't find a zip version of the rom to install and the only way I can install roms is through CWM.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How to talk to the Modem with AT commands from the phone
[LG Optimus 3D] n3fta:
I have noticed that when using a working Optimus 3d in device manager I see LG USB CDMA Serial Adapter or something to that effect, when using my non working phone I only get LG Mobile USB Serial Port. Without CDMA serial port I cannot update using Smart Flash, Flash Tool or LG Mobile Software Updaete.
[LG Optimus 3D] berthilbl:
I have exactly the same problem as n3fta...IFX modem not connecting...i did all the methods too..all the same errors.

The phone was working when i got it. I rooted it and installed clockworkmod but i was for p920, not for mine p920h. So when it rebooted it was in Lg logo loop. I used fastboot v0.5 to get it back alive and installed some ROMs but all with no IMEI or signal.

Is there a solution?

---------- Post added at 04:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:30 PM ----------

Is there a way we can get a full backup with someone that has the same phone working and load it on clockworkmod recovery? Or would it be like cloning the phone or something like this? Sorry, im a bit new on this area.
[LG Optimus 3D] Guantonio:
@berthilbl

I exhausted every software repair option before returning it to my friend, hence, it was definitely a hardware fault. Even Octopus box refused to detect the modem, even with the official LG flashing cable for the P920 (similar to the modded one in this thread but with a different ohm resistor). As it was on GB when I got it, the baseband had been flashed some time after it had shipped. Hence, it wasn't shipped with the fault as a bad batch but developed it later.

You mentioned that yours is a P920h flashed with cwm for the P920. Have you tried returning to stock recovery?

If all else fails, there are several video's on youtube showing how to dismantle the P920. It might be worth taking a look at the circuitry. May turn out to be something simple like a dry joint or just a loose connection.
[LG Optimus 3D] n3fta:
I finally decided to take my O3D in for repair on Thursday. I'll post what the problem is and how much LG quotes me to fix it, i'm hoping hear something later this week.
[LG Optimus 3D] Guantonio:
Any update yet?

No longer have the faulty one but would still love to know what was wrong with it.
[LG Optimus 3D] n3fta:
I finally got the phone back today.

They didn't give me a clear answer on what exactly the problem was, just told me they replaced the main board. Cost of the repair was $114 plus the taxes. Seemed like a fair price to me, the phone still looks brand new and I didn't want to just trash it.

Updating to v30c as I type this.

Hi,

[LG Optimus 3D] Karim Kahale:
Did you try to downgrade to bootv21e gingerbread and see if this solves your problem?

Based on what I experienced, bootv21e fixed my IMEI problem every time I bricked my phone :D
[LG Optimus 3D] Karim Kahale:
Are you using smartflash or LG flashtool?

LG flashtool often fixes the problem.
[LG Optimus 3D] Aram-GSM:
yes, lg flash tools v1.5 can't connect to IFX Modem:

may this problem is Hardware issue?
[LG Optimus 3D] Karim Kahale:
No I had this IFX problem before, are you sure you are holding volume up button all the time ?

If yes, try also the 3D button, some users managed to do it that way.
[LG Optimus 3D] Aram-GSM:
all the time?? NO! i release buttons after detected by pc...

let me check it! also i check 3d button...

---------- Post added at 10:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:46 AM ----------

nothing changed...

still lgflash tools can't connect to ifx modem.

also when holding 3d button, phone not detected by pc (phone not goiong in emergency mode)
[LG Optimus 3D] Karim Kahale:
Did you use smartflash before?
[LG Optimus 3D] Aram-GSM:
no. i bought this p920 with this problem!
[LG Optimus 3D] Karim Kahale:
Okay then try smartflash and see if you will get the same problem.
[LG Optimus 3D] Aram-GSM:
same problem (timeout for connect to ifx modem) with smartflash...

is there any way to write fls or bin or kdz files from recovery? (TWRP or CWM recovery is available. i can change rom and install zip files only)

[LG Optimus 3D] drastic00:
There is a bootloader zip there, yes, but option 2 is the ICS firmware zip that installs like a kdz would, firmware + baseband. But you could ask zogu to be sure. Without modem I don't know how else you'd do it.
[LG Optimus 3D] Aram-GSM:
i install that firmware and loader... rom loaded and worked fine. but still imei is null and no signal. :(
[LG Optimus 3D] drastic00:
I'd ask on some of the tutorials for fixing imei. But if modem is truly broken I'm not sure. Are you positive the drivers are installed correctly on your pc? If you have custom (wkpark) bootloaders on your other phone, the setup is slightly different for pc drivers.

I Tried for 2 months without reading this topic and I have exactly the same problems, IFX modem NOT WORKING = smartflash, lgflash, kdz, recovery, thousand of roms, cables, windows, cpus, netbooks, all, 2 hours per day for 2 months testing and nothing works. The difference is that I can tell you that my cellphone fell to the ground and inmediatly I lost my IMEI and all of posibilities to recover it. I can confirm reading this that it is a hardware fail, so dont waste your time and look for a mainboard :(

It works perfectly fine but on one specific GSM network it have problem of unable to make/receive calls/SMS or if call is connected then sometimes it works perfectly fine or sometimes other person hears "HOSHHHH" sound only and no voice at Su660 end.

Have tried other GSM network sims and it works fine but on one specific network it gives this error.
