Okay not sure where exactly to post this so if I'm in the wrong spot, feel free to move it. I'm just posting to mention something I've discovered about our beloved ace and newer PC hardware, more specifically download mode and USB 3.0 short answer, DON'T! ESPECIALLY ON WINDOWS 8! After much searching on here, google and msdn forums as to how to get Windows 8 to recognize the usb driver for download mode,the only way I could get it to work was to plug it in to a USB 2.0 port and update the driver. Remember that most phones are still only USB 1.1 and Samsung's drivers for whatever reason don't allow for the backwards compatibility.

I have an I717 that I'm already using on T-Mobile and I get 4G. LTE is now available in my area through T-Mobile, but I do not understand the instructions given to me. Could somebody walk me through this. I need to know which Rom and Radio and where to get them from. I'm currently on The Collective rom because I have up on trying these other ones to get LTE. Thanks in advance!!!!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sinasiadat:
Download the newest firmware for the at&t i717 from samsung-updates and flash it. Instant LTE. doubt you will see LTE with the jelly bean roms with the lack of dial codes but with the radio from the new at&t. . . Most likely some build prop stuff and libs and or certs needed too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Christogq:
Do u happen to know if that Rom or firmware or whatever is Rootable? I'm not exactly sure what all I've done to the phone today, but it finally works with LTE. i did some kind of recovery thingy from Kies and changed the APN settings to the Tmobiel stuff and I'm getting LTE. I'm now on an unrooted, fully stock AT&T Rom. Is Rom and firmware the same thing?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sinasiadat:
I havent had time to try. . But yea rom and firmware are synonymous. Try flashing a custom recovery with goo manager and then injecting super user via zip flash

There is no LTE icon in this rom because its from Asia. The H+ and 4G icons are LTE.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CalcProgrammer1:
I just bought a prepaid T-Mo plan (the $30 5GB/100 min one) to test out for a month before I decide if I want to ditch AT&T for good. I'm on CM10.1 with UCLF6 and I popped the T-Mo SIM in, got AT&T to give me an unlock code, and I'm up and running with Internet. It idles at 3G but when data is transferring it throttles up to H+ and seems to go reasonably fast. I don't care about maximum speed, just having a stable connection that I can stream music over. AT&T is fast and unstable for me, fast at home but crap at work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] piscator1977:
Finally I got 4G icon on GT-N7005 rom for LTE after I flash the UCLF6 radio.Now the mobile network type is LTE:14. Thanks!

https://hotfile.com/dl/211011602/92de02c/I717UCMB4modem_gt-n7005amss.zip.html

This is what I am using. I put UCMB4 i717 radio together with gt-n7005 amss file. It will say UVGL3 modem during flashing, but it is i717 UCMB4 radio. You will lose H+ speed in some area with no 1900 band, but it is ok for me in Bay area.

I haven't test the speed. I am still waiting to have my next cycle of 5GB 4G speed data.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Drunken1:
Cleveland is set to get T-mobile LTE later this month or in June. I have Solavei, which is one of the MVNOs that uses T-MOBILE as its network. My question is, for my ATTI717 Note to get LTE speeds, will I have to flash back to stock? Currently running Blackstar X, which I rather like, but will flash something else if getting LTE requires it. Thanks in advance for any and all advice.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Poriotis:
I am confused here :confused: You are able to get LTE with stock ATT ROM, so why is there a need to a flash a different radio? Does the UCMB4 i717 radio change the band of the phone from 1900 to 1700?

Please, some one explain.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] scariola:
Any stock att radio operates on 1900 band for hspa+ and 1700 band 4 for lte. Which is also the band tmobile uses for lte.

The custom tmobile radios here are configured to access the 1700 wcdma band for hspa+, but none include lte in the radio.

So key thing for lte is an att official radio. Uclf6, ucmd3, ucmb4 all have lte and access to tmobile hspa+ under the refarming of 1900mhz band.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tube517:
I have no clue. My guess is I'm in a "refarm" area for Tmobile and it's compatible with ATT's??? I really don't know.

FWIW, I'm still on stock Gingerbread. I can't root the phone due to a bad USB port. Odin can't access my Note and I can't even update to JB via Kies because it cannot see that either.

EDIT: Scariola explains it in the post above mine

from my att i717 using tmobile with telus jb rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Poriotis:
So I understand. If you flash any of the above radios you'll be able to get consistently 3G and above on TMobile and LTE where ever available? If that's the case could you please post links to these radios. Will they work on a JellyBean ROM? I currently use CM10.

Bonus question (:o): On CM10 is there a way to change the band you are connecting to? For example by using *#2263#.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayjr2081:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=40977426

Thats the link that takes you to download for stock jb but in the same link it includes one of the jb modems which is ucmd3...

For cm10 i believe its *#*#4636#*..it takes you to a test mode. Pick the 1st option then scroll down a bit and you will see a spot where you can change the radio and it gives you a list...thats what i did for cm10.

from my att i717 using tmobile with telus jb rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Poriotis:
Thanks for the reply. The code sequence is actually, *#*#4636#*#*. The question is which option do I pick? Currently I have LTE/GSM/WCDMA selected under Network mode but the network connections are exactly the same as stock ATT ROM. Do I still need to flash a different radio?

I wish there was a chart with all the modems, speeds, ROM compatibility and links to the files. :fingers-crossed:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayjr2081:
No you do not need to flash another modem if you are trying to pick up the lte signal..if your area doesnt have lte yet want hspa+ then change it to wcdma only. Speeds vary by area.

from my att i717 using tmobile with telus jb rom

---------- Post added at 03:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

If you want a modem that taps into the 1700 aws band for tmobile the you would to try the blaze modem...that one works very well..well for me it did..you honestly need to search the different modems..i know in the general section for att jb on tmobile there are 2 links in that forum that have combo modems..good luck with your search...

from my att i717 using tmobile with telus jb rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Poriotis:
I want the full enchilada :cowboy: (3G, 4G & LTE but I'll settle for 3G - 4G).

Anyways, changing the settings in CM10 looks like it has no effect. I don't think it can change the band from 1900 to 1700. Flashing a radio will do that.

Yes, I was looking at that one and in fact want to flash it but it's hosted on a suspicious file server (at least that's what my virus scan is picking up). Any mirrors would be greatly appreciated :fingers-crossed:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayjr2081:
On cm10 i dont believe you can change the bands...you should try the telus jb rom..in my experience its alot smoother than the att jb rom..plus it gives the network selection plus you can do the *#2263#. you should try a combo modem which picks up both tmobile and att..especially if lte is not available in your area yet. Just a thought...i want lte as well but its not available in my area. Yet.so im happy with hspa+...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Poriotis:
So, let me get this straight. With the Telus JB ROM you have the option to change bands? And the Telus ROM is as fast as CM10? You wouldn't happen to have a link to that ROM would you?

Im actually curios about the new phones that are comming out as well as the brands... Cloudfone has been around as long as both Cherry Mobile and My Phone (more or less). i think their hardware is pretty good also. Pero si My Phone has not yet release a quadcore import. It would be very interesting to see what they come up with soon. The can't afford to wait too long since lumabas na ang Flame 2.0 with a Qualcomm quadcore.
[General Topics] seagheart89:
im currently using the CM Flame 2 and its been smooth so far... but im planning to get the new myphone 919i "aka the micromaxx canvas HD" since i want to try out the new mediatek quad core proccessor... :D
[General Topics] jansdizon:
It would really be awesome if we could finally get the chance to pit these two quadcore phones against each other in a head to head performance battle.

One other thing to compare between the two are their displays. Since the MP919i has a larger display but has the same resolution as the CMFLame2.0 its pixel density will be lower. As a benchmark, the human eye is said to be able to distinguish a maximum of 300-350 PPI (pixels per square inch of the display) and Newsprint is at 120-150 PPI only. for those who are fans of Bulgar. The Flame 2.0 has a density of around 250 PPI (this is rounded off). Meaning that for the display size of the Flame(4.5in Diagonal) coupled with its max resolution(540x960 pixels) it gives you decent enough pixel density for most hardcore smartphone uses such as gaming and mobile imaging.

:silly:
[General Topics] seagheart89:
the canvas hd has a resolution of 1280x720 with a 5 inch display giving it a density of 293.72ppi vs the flame 2 with 960x540 at 5 inches giving it a density of 244.77ppi

and the ability to see pixels depends also on the distance from the screen... retina displays are a good example... the iphone's retina display has 326ppi vs the macbook's retina display at only 227ppi

"Steve Jobs said the magic number for a retina display is about 300 PPI for a device held 10 to 12 inches from the eye. One way of expressing this as a unit is Pixels Per Degree (PPD) which takes into account both the screen resolution and the distance from which the device is viewed."

CheckPoint SecureClient for PPC 2003

I have it installed and it does work fine on my MDA II. However, the app was built on the Checkpoint 4.1 version so it will not work with NG. As long as you still have an older connection to a 4.1 based server you can use it.

Seems pretty lazy to build a new app without making it compatible with teh current version of your software!!

So...

We are all here because we love to modify our phones. Some like alot and others like a little.

Here's a little mod made possible by the vr theme system

Change the background for your system to your own personal choice. And I'm not referring to wallpaper I'm referring to the background that most apps use on your phone.

This can all be done on your phone in about 5 minutes. The following may seem like a lot but once you do it once or twice it's very simple. PLEASE NANDROID BEFORE FLASHING... JUST IN CASE

Apps I Use:

Root Explorer Pro by SpeedSoftware

Photo Editor by dev.macguyver

1. Download file below

2. You will need 3 images... 2 dark and 1 light (you can use the same image twice for the dark background if you like, just make a copy. Please keep in mind that most of the time you see these backgrounds you will have text over top of them, so don't make dark background to bright and don't make light backgrounds to dark

3. Using root explorer find the images you want to use and copy them to another place. For example, I have a separate folder from my picture folder called Edited (you can call it whatever you like). It's also best to choose a picture whose resolution is at least 512x512

4. Next open one picture in Photo Editor and choose resize/fit, then select manual and resize to 480x800 NOTE: Not all pictures will stay perfect looking. You may need to crop them beforehand.

5. Once the picture is sized, if necessary you may need to darken the image or brighten the image... Just select color and adjust the brightness slider as needed. Feel free to play with the other options in Photo Editor, as there are a lot of features (This is my number one app used when building themes)

6. Repeat steps for the other images. When you save each image, you must save as a PNG... if your base file was jpg then it will create a new PNG for you

7. After editing the 3 images, change there names...

The light image must be named background_holo_light.png

One dark image must be named background_holo_dark.png and the other must be named tw_background_holo_dark.png

8. Now go to the file you downloaded and Extract (if using root explorer, you might want to set a specific folder to extract to and zip to before starting)

9. Take your 3 custom backgrounds and move then to BGmodifier/vrtheme/system/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-nodpi and paste...You should get 3 popups to replace each file.

10. Exit all the folders... Long press BGModifier, select Zip... when it's finished boot into recovery and flash

ENJOY YOUR OWN CUSTOM BACKGROUNDS

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Utahnewbie:
I just got my Nexus 4 and installed SDK and drivers on PC. OK, so now I boots my phone into fastboot mode, I connected it to my PC, entered"fastboot devices" in command line, no problem, I can see the device with the ID.

But when I entered"fastboot oem unlock", the command line it says" FAILED <command write failed <Unknown error>>". And the phone stays in fastboot mode without any pop-up.

I use USB 2.0 ports on the backside of the computer. Also USB 2.0 on my laptop. None of them work.

I tried to factory set the phone, restart computer and phone, change to another computer, none of them worked. Maybe I should contact Google to ask for an exchange because mine can not be unlocked?

Any help is deeply appreciated.
