This is a touchy subject. I once had the triangle and roaming with dual clock. I did all I could with all the fixes. Wound up getting sim replaced. Then happened again with the slim bean update. So both were triangles. But the luck the second time was flashing the backup of strumer jons miui. It has all the nice deep network settings. And it worked. I see now many are talking about the fix in most cases kust going in to network settings and chainging to ruim from nv ...then auto. So try this if you have the roaming triangle and still have your imei and number.. min
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rsarno:
Hello i am dealing with this right now as i type this. I have gone into Network settings and switched everything i can possibly find, nothing seems to get rid of the triangle

Also tried flashing other roms i had backed up

Also tried a fresh factory reset

Right now im downloading this ROM and Odin, and ill give it a whirl. If all else fails i guess i have to go get a new SIM? What do i tell them at the counter? Will they care that I am rooted? Do i even need to bring my phone to them or can i just bring the SIM and ask for a new one?

---------- Post added at 05:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 PM ----------

To the OP ... you mentioned follow these steps then i should be able to root/unlock ... but I already have. Do you mean that by following these steps I will lose my root and ill need to do it again?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dincdoes.me:
I wish this guide was out a couple days ago I had to figure it out by googling and flashing through Odin/face plants into keyboard. But what he says is what I did works great!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rsarno:
I feel like such a nub lol, never did use Odin. Im following this process ... i booted the phone and i see the little android robot. It says "Downloading... Do not turn off Target!"

I open Odin and i pointed the PDA path to the ROM i downloaded, check box is checked ... I hit start, and nothing happens.

Just says "<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)"

Did i do it wrong?

EDIT, apparently i had to wait for it to "ADD" my drive ... now i hit start and its doing all sorts of ish ... wish me luck!

---------- Post added at 07:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 PM ----------

I have gotten through to step 5 (factory reset) and now booted. It appears to be in an "Activation Loop" or something? I see the triangle is on top, and actually it sometimes switches to an "R" but then back to a triangle.

The phone says "Activating ..." and every minute it dials out to some number and connects for 2 seconds, then disconnects, and just keeps repeating.

It did that maybe 5 or 6 times, now it says my only option is to restart or make an emergency call. Cannot dial the code in step6 from the emergency keypad, it wont let me.

Im restarting, not sure what to do, there are no options.

Is this normal?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zaccat4:
The R or triangle is what this is fixing that means your roaming just get out of the activation screen and call the number.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rsarno:
Right on ... it worked! I googled "How to get past activation screen" and could not believe that tapping actually worked, but it did lol. Dialed the number and bam .. service.

Now im assuming i need to reroot and unlock? Ill get on that now :)

Thanks so much to everyone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid2drummer:
This was the case for me. However easy to go into verizon without your phone. Tell them its ar home and you just need new sim. Offer to pay for it. Then they will give it free.

Also you need to make sure you still have #. Abd imei is correct.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
No, you don't need to unlock, the root66 ROM preserves your unlocked bootloader. All you have to do is flash Clockworkmod recovery, or TWRP recovery, and then you can flash back your custom ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 996:
So I originally had the roaming issue. Went back to the stock rom and entered the code provided in the dialer, re rooted and unlocked bootloader and flashed a custom recovery. Tried flashing 10.1 again...still the same deal. Roaming. How can I get past this roaming with an android 4.2 rom!? has anyone been successful at it?

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zaccat4:
You have to do a dirty flash over a 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GuestK0040:
Post over at the cyanogenmod forums suggest trying:

Go into Mobile Settings -> Mobile Networks

Change CDMA mode to RUIM

Toggle Airplane Mode (or reboot)

Haven't been able to verify myself, but if it can save someone from reflashing it's worth a shot.

I just tried this to fix my s3 and I can confirm it works
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] st3wart:
Worked for me also.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toonz333:
This worked for me but I have a couple question.

- How do I get to be bone stock from here? I don't want to be rooted or flash any roms

For some reason, I don't have any 4LTE service only 3g.

I went to status update two times and both times I got upgraded to 4.04 not 4.1

Basically I would like the phone like it just came out of the box and I did an OTA update for 4.1

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zaccat4:
Are you sure that your in a 4g area?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toonz333:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dbornack:
You guys know you don't need to do all this.

Just hit the four corners of the screen after a fresh flash to bypass activation, go to settings-more settings under mobile networks, and change your CDMA subscription from NV, to the other one.

Takes 15 seconds.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] miguel0069:
Help Me Please!

i have done all steps and still in roaming. The only step i didnt know was the left,right,left,right at the bottom and volume up? where are we doing that and is there a video of this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zaccat4:
The left right thing is to bypass the activation screen. I would make a video but i hard bricked my phone I'm getting it fixed now I might do a video when i get it fixed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chrisgriner:
I'm in the same boat as you. I've followed the steps in the OP and I still have a triangle Roaming signal. The phone at least works now. I can make phone calls and use data, but I know its not right...

Any additional suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid2drummer:
Odin back to stock. Then call Verizon and they will walk you through and should try provisioning or communicating it usually fails but then after they fail flash aosp Rom then go into settings and toggle automatic then ruim/SIM then after few seconds reboot after you get it fixed which I'm not guaranteeing but it always worked for me under no other ideas including provisioning myself it worked...Peace...Then end result they will offer replacement but that's on you. I won't replace if I bork but...hope this helps. I flash often usually the only time this happens is now if I flash aosp Rom and forget to wipe system and flash tw base...only call if the toggle in aosp fails after Odin ..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chrisgriner:
I will have to try calling them today. I've gone back to stock 4.0.4 yet again, and ran the *2767*3855# command. Other than fixing my flash count, i'm as stock as you can be right now. Will see what Verizon says. My service works, which is a bit funny. I"m sure if I was in an LTE market I would have issues, but for where I live roaming on 3G works just fine. Obviously still want it fixed.

I may give the AOSP ROM settings a go if Verizon provisioning doesn't work.

Thanks for the help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
when I get stuck in roaming from a 4.2.1 ROM, I just do the:

adb reboot nvrestore

granted you did the backup to begin with..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] idelgado782:
You sir a lifesaver. I had this issue when trying the latest nighly of MIUI. I didnt touch any of the network settings, as soon as I flashed the rom and the phone turned it it automatically turned on in roaming mode and I tried flashing a different rom, as well as odin'ing and nothing worked. However after I odin'ed I read this post and followed you steps and i got my 4g back! Woot woot! Thanks a million!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenbrownstone:
Thanks you fixed my phone too. But I didn't have to flash cause I had done that trying to fix and it didn't. Then I found this and it works great. Thanks so much man it's been driving me crazy for two days. Do all the folks who have this problem this will work. I just changed the two settings on the phoneand then dialed the *2767*3855#. Thanks you're a lifesaver.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] krazie1:
I had this issue recently and restored a backup of a ROM and my data started working. But the thing is it showed data but didn't work, so I odined back to stock and unlocked rooted and flashed Cleanrom and I have data now and it works but my calls and SMS don't work. My question is will this fix it? When I first start the phone I have the r (roaming) icon then the 4g shows up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenbrownstone:
Yes ..should fix mine did same thing. Im bout 99% sure...I did all that reroot and everything too. Did u flash a 412 rom? Thats what did it......follow my post and shoukd fix....what its doing is a HARD RESET
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] krazie1:
Yeah I flashed a 4.1.2 ROM and that's when it started acting weird. Yours got fixed after doing this method? You unlocked and rooted after you did this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenbrownstone:
If you are unlocked and rooted akready u dont have to redo. ...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] krazie1:
OK let me try it, I'm going to go to a 4.2 ROM and change the mobile network settings those 2 you pm'd and then Dial that number correct? How do you do a hard reset?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenbrownstone:
Yep ....think u dont even have to push send ..think once u put in final number it dails by it self. It will just be a operatir. Once u hear her its fixed
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] krazie1:
I did the method and dialed the number (I had to press call to get it to call) and it works now! But I do have a weak signal now, any reason why?

Thanks a lot kenbrownstone!

Is this still relevant?

For some reason, switched from TW to AOSP and things were running fine for 3 days. Suddenly, no reboot or anything, phone just goes into roaming. Finally I reflash the MF1 firmware and get data back, but still can't make calls.

This seems like the route I need to go, just want to make sure it's still accurate. TIA.

For more information on what exactly happened, I tried to install an AOSP rom with safestrap but it didn't work because I took the OTA update and can't install any non-touchwiz ROM. When I restored my backup safestrap rom, I didn't have service, only the little "no" icon was in the top.

[HTC EVO 3D] wcctom:
You need to flash boot image,if you dont now how to do it,then below are the steps.You will need to do this for flashing any ROM if you are not S-OFF.

.Here are the steps

1)enter recovery on phone,claer,delvik,clear battery stats,format everything but sd card

2) copy BOOT.IMG from what ever rom you are trying to flash (move to a folder on your c drive)

3) then set phone for fastboot usb

4) then open cmd on your computer open comand folder

5) use this comand next fastboot flash boot boot.img

6)then your boot img will flash and will take about 11 seconds or so

7) next open recovery on phone

8)clear delvik again and battery stats

9) install rom

10) clear delvik again then reboot,all should work

I do suggest going s-off it is really easy and eliminates alot of these steps.

So I linked my Ultraviolet account to my Nook HD...now what? I've looked through all of the stock apps and I can't figure out why the heck I needed to do this. I thought maybe that would mean those movies would be free in the store now, but that doesn't seem to be the case in the few I tried. Also, Flixster crashes as soon as it loads, so I can't see if my digital movies show up there either.

The Nook framework seems so polished to guide customers to only they can easily get to and enjoy, so linking ultraviolet without a readily accessible use just doesn't seem to make any sense.

Hey folks,

I've been wanting to get a galaxy note II for Christmas! Fortunately for me, I had a relative use their upgrade to get the Note II and trade me for my iPhone 5 (kind bored of iOS) but it is a AT&T version.... I need the T-Mobile version lol

I'm new to the Android Community and had some questions for you folks.

What steps do I need to take to setup my new phone?

1. Charge phone to 100% before use

2. Unlock the phone to T-mobile using the method posted here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2014982)

3. Use new phone?

4. Possible root/new rom to remove bloatware? (Can anyone recommend a stable rom that doesn't lose any features of the original stock rom without bloatware? It would be a plus to be able to increase battery life/make the phone faster)

5. ??? missing any steps?

I also was wondering if anyone who used the AT&T version on T-mobile receive HSPA speeds (without the 1900mhz refarm or a radio flash-does this even exist yet?) or is pure edge until they redo the towers (been on edge with the iphone 5 and its getting annoying lol)?

Additionally, does anyone have the correct APN to use with the AT&T note 2 for the t-mobile network (should be the same as the iphone apn correct)?

I did search for some threads regarding this but I was hoping for a more comprehensive answer

Thanks in advance folks!
