My wifi at home keeps disconnecting seemingly randomly with decent reception. Is this a modem issue which could be flash-fixed, or something else? I see its a problem for some but can't find a solution. I'm on xxugne8
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkerTimes:
When it's very important to you, install the app "csc select" and try with it. But will only works, if you have a multiple csc firmware and requires root access. And every data will be delete.

You can try to update to another 4.4.2 firmware, but be careful, when you want to root again with towelroot flash NF1 firmware and no later versions.

I assume you are trying to flash a STOCK rom........tar.md5 file?

Ensure no kies running in background

Ensure correct drivers installed

Open Odin

In PDA or AP navigate to the file and let odin check the file.

Turn Phone OFF

Press power + Volume down together for a few seconds and then press volume up when it asks to go into Download mode.

Connect USB to PC and your device.

Esure odin has seen your device (ID:COM)

Only have Auto re-boot and F.Reset Time checked in Odin

Press start

Hi,

Yes! I believe this is the

modem you currently have installed. I'm not sure if it is also the bootloader, but unless you installed a different modem sometime it may also be it. Sorry for taking long to answer, I was quite busy lately and my internet stopped recently too :P. Hope you get it working soon!

Hi,

Make an efs backup just in case. But I believe you'll face no problem ;).

Hi,

Your modem is incompatible with your ROM, you have all the symptoms: sound not working (including videos), not receiving service signal and Wifi not turning on. Please try flashing another modem. Good luck.

Facebook app freezing on start screen

Hi guys!

I have a rooted i9500 running Android 4.3 from Perú's Movistar. A few days ago the facebook app updated to the last version and since the it freezes on the blue "setting up" start screen. Not only it doesn't start, but also messes any other GPS based app (sport tracking and taxi app, to name some). I've uninstalled facebook app, erased used info and cached data and reinstalled several times. I've just made a factory reset and the problem persists.

Any suggestions or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

You won't find 4.4.2 stock roms without Knox, sorry, but there are some Touchwiz based custom roms in which Knox had been removed.

Or you go back to stock 4.2.2 MGA, there exists no Knox bootloader. Be careful, since 4.2.2 MH1 Knox is activated.

Q regarding S4 LTE Arctic blue variant

Hi guys, please forgive me i've posted this question the wrong way, i am new to rooting and i am still xda forum illiterate as i never have enough time on my hands.

Below is the s4 variant i just bought unbranded. It's the s4 arctic blue variant with 16gb internal storage. ( hope this helps but from what i've gathered so far, the firmware for this s4 variant appears to be the same for galaxy note 2 )

Model number GT-19505

Baseband version 19505XXUEMK9

Kernel version

3.4.0-2082040

Se.infra@sep-126#1

Thu nov 21 15:13:46KST

Build number JSS15j.i9505XXUEMK9

SE for android status

Enforcing

SEPF_GT-i9505-4.3-0014

The reason for wanting my phone rooted is so i can remove as much bloatware as possible without affecting the phones normal operation. I say this because i rooted my s3, installed the galaxy project rom, then i lost root access and now when i listen to music and play a game like pool pro, i can't exit the game without the phone freezing up, even though music is still working. I have to actually remove the battery and re start the phone. It's very annoying but i have to wear it as i chose to take the risks of rooting my phone on board. So i would like to avoid this by leaving the phone as un modified as possible so......

I have just rooted the phone through towel root and i have just backed everything up ( even though the phone is brand new and has no data on it ) through titanium back up.

Anytime i want to download something from playstore i keep getting "download failed due to an error", yet the download is successfull when i hit download again. I find this annoying. What's causing this and can this be fixed?

And i would be extremly greatful if anyone could point me to an accurate list of bloatware for my s4 variant that i can remove without the above mentioned problem on my s3 occuring.

Once again, i do apologise if i have posted this query/question the wrong way and if it is a little long winded.

Thank you kindly.

--------------------------------------------

I have to ask another potentially silly question...not sure if my gut feel is on the right track here but......should i wipe the data from the apps i want to remove before un installing them at the same time? my gut sais if i remove them individually i will encounter problems.

or is there no difference wether i wipe date or not or un install them individually or not?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkerTimes:
You can deinstall them without wiping their cash, data or whatever.

Use Titanium Backup or something like that, choose the app you want to remove, click on the button "deinstall" and be happy ;)

Then you won't have any trouble, when you don't just delete the wrong apps which are important for the system, agreed? ^^

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkerTimes:
Yes it's possible that you might find folders relating to apps you removed, but i think only when they once had been user apps, not system apps.

In this case you can delete them as well. But as I said, I don't think that you will find folders of deleted system apps.

Hi

I've a (big) problem with custom Roms.

I tried all kind of flashing / wiping the ROMS.

The issue:

When i flash (CWM / TRWP , tried both) a custom rom similiar which it boots up and running fine.

BUT when i turn off or restart the phone it won't boot up.

It stucks von the startscreen which shows "Galaxy S4"

The only way i found to boot up the phone again is to wipe data/cache/dalvik cache.

So all data are gone and i have to reconfigure the phone again.

So when the battery goes empty or in any wise the phone will shutdown or reboot i've to wipe data/cache/dalvik cache again :/

I'm really frustrated with this issue

I hope anybody maybe have the same problem or better a fix for this issue.

Thanks in advance!
