"To err is human, to forgive is divine"

Sent from my SGS II
[General Questions and Answers] paulschofield76:
Thanks, that looks interesting.

I remember in the past I was intentionally avoiding Sony. I'd seen some stats regarding the speed at which different manufacturers updated their Android handsets, and Sony was at the bottom.

I'll have a look and see what kind of support there is for Sony devices (accessories, rooting, roms etc.)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] JOSE89178:
At my second job my company is sending me a Sprint HTC one to use as my work phone and they want me to activate it on my Sprint account or they'll pay the deposit to open the account if there's one. But where I live I don't good coverage from them and there 3G is SUPER SLOW, I can't really stand the sucky service in my area. I Have T-Mobile and have good coverage where ever I go and was wondering if the sim tray in the Sprint Htc one is Unlocked so I can just activate with my T-Mobile account and pop in a T-Mobile SIM card. If any one can please confirm this would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chazybaz13:
No
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] 001isj:
I'm 99% sure it's a no. T-Mobile uses different radios from Sprint, I think AT&T and T-Mobile use the same radios, which is why you can use unlocked AT&T phones on T-Mobile.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] youkosnake:
This. Att and tmobile use gsm radios and sprint and verizon use cdma.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] david279:
The sprint one has support for some gsm bands. Read this...

http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-342-updated-all-for-htc-one-htc-one-for-all/
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] shook187:
I'm sure those bands don't exist anywhere significant.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] luigi311:
It says the HTC one has been modified for sprint and it doesn't confirm that the phone supposes gsm on the sheet it only specifies CDMA and lte frequencies
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] kc_exactly:
According to some Sprint forums it is a world phone. It just isn't unlocked.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] luigi311:
A world phone can have many different interpretations such as using a gsm network somewhere else or just roaming outside the us and we can all roam outside the us such as mexico which is domestic roaming and I think that is also considered a world phone since ur using it somewhere else
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] myphone12345:
In the OP's case, a discussion as to whether the phone is SIM locked or unlocked on the One is completely moot because the Sprint variant of the device does not possess the GSM or UMTS/WCDMA frequency bands needed to operate in most of the Americas, including the United States. It only does GSM 900/1800 and UMTS 2100. In other words, even if it was unlocked for other companies' US GSM or UMTS SIM cards it wouldn't be able to get any signal in the US, or for that matter, anywhere in most of North, Central, or South America or in other parts of the world where the GSM or UMTS 850 or 1900 MHz bands are used.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
According to this article, which I have linked several times on here in response to this question, the ONE on Sprint most likely has GSM 900/1800mhz capability. Which is the GSM most all of the world uses except for the US. That is why it is a "World Phone."
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] myphone12345:
Partially true since this does not only apply to the US specifically. See my post right before yours.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
Fixed that for you. ;) You could not use it in the US. :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] manuele.f:
but even by flashing a customized firmware once the phone has been rooted the phone is unable to manage others sim cards?

is there any change to remove the sim lock somehow?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] x714x:
Even if it was sim unlocked it wont work. Its a hardware limitation, not a software one. It cant run on the frequencies that North America uses for GSM.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] david279:
It does run frequencies that we run here in the us. It supports 1900 and 2100 utms. 850 and 900 gsm. Both are used here in the us by at&t and t-mobile.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] x714x:
Isnt it hardware limited to a point where it cant operate on a 3g/hspa gsm data network? i.e. if you do sim unlock and take it to a gsm carrier you will not get anything over 2g/edge speed?

I was going to start porting but if there's no interest than no need to waist time
[AT&T LG Optimus G] stratus1011:
I've been waiting for someone to do this since day 1!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jmaserang:
Are you willing to test ?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] stratus1011:
Definitely!!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] bassitone:
I personally am happy with the ROM I'm running, but judging from the amount of questions about "x is awesome... but where's miui?" in the Q&A section, there's plenty of interest!

Also, since I'm a flashaholic I most likely will flash it at least once :silly:

Pecked by the AOKP/CM/PA alicorn
[AT&T LG Optimus G] desudecchi:
I am also interested in having miui in our phone and would like to test it if possible.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] PhonePhan:
Trust me this question has popped up like 3 different threads. People want this, me myself have only heard of miui. New to this ROM bussiness so I've never actually got to use it and would love if you ported.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jmaserang:
I have ported miui for the photon 4g and epic touch 4g but the lgog is my first gsm phone so be patient with me and I'll see what I can put together.. Any thoughts on what kernel to use ??

[AT&T LG Optimus G] kufusoto:
The nexus 4 might be a good idea lol
[AT&T LG Optimus G] MysteryEmotionz:
Building miui from source is a better idea. Ports never seem to work 100%

---------- Post added at 02:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:07 PM ----------

As far as kernels go I would use the one from cyangenmod. Houcha n my kernel are better off left as a 2nd flash. Hate to have kernel issues in your ROM thread that you have no control over.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] g33k3r:
MIUI isn't open source though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hyelton:
Okay So a few months ago when I had the Note 2 after updaiting Offically to the newest firmware update which I think was January with the Baseband of I317UCAMA4 ever since I did that update my Note 2 had a signal loss issue. I would be connected to my tether, Phone NOT moving and suddenly I would go from all my bars of service to NO SERVICE with the cross at the top and wait about 30 seconds and everything back to normal and working it happens randomly throughout the day. Also it ONLY started happening AFTER I did the update, I called they sent a new one and i sold it to buy the xperia ZL. Well today bought one used on amazon I missed it, Well this one was already updated and its DOING the same exact thing! It happens everywhere I go! not just tethering and also happens in other states so its not a network issue.

Whats up with that and how do i fix?

back in febuary I even tried flashing an older modem/baseband which it did flash but the issue still occured.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsmith0731:
Could it be your apn settings?

Current Devices: At&t Samsung Galaxy Note, Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Asus Google Nexus 7 Super Tablet

Current Roms: CleanROM Ace 8 (Note 2), AOKP (Galaxy Nexus), Nexus 7 Stock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hyelton:
NOPE. Happens on Both Wap.cingular and "phone" and "pta" which I switch between wap.cingular and phone mostly. Cause while im throttled with my unlimated plan wap.cingular makes it unthrottled:D haha.

But Same APN`s I use with NON AT&T Devices... Issue is not with data, Issue is with the actual service so APN has nothing to do with it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hyelton:
Happens on stock rom and custom. Just loaded an older modem and like my old note 2 after update still did NOT fix it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
I've taken the UCAMA4 update twice now, and have no data issues here. (Utah U.S.A)

Very odd that you have 2 devices in a row that have the problem.

Perhaps the next step would be to list each step you took to root the device, and also tell us what rom and other software you have used.

This may help us identify the cause. ...g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hyelton:
Well This issue was happening before I did ANYTHING what so ever. I always root and flash recovory via ODIN then flash the rom through CWM. But this was happening before I did anything.

On my Last note 2 everything worked fine did I did the update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] nunyabiziz:
Do a sim swap and see if it resolved your issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsmith0731:
If I'm not mistaken you said you have had two notes and they both have had this issue?

Sounds like a user error somewhere..

Current Devices: At&t Samsung Galaxy Note, Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Asus Google Nexus 7 Super Tablet

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] chucky19:
I had a similar issue. New sim card fixed it. Not saying that it will fix yours tho but worth a try.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hyelton:
User Error??? You gotta be kidding me? LMAO!

2 phones on stock nothing touched and causing it? user error?

Also I HAVE NOT tried a new sim yet. BUT the entire month I was using the ZL with the same sim did i EVER see an issue with data and signal never dropped service once.

How could it be the sim if it worked just fine in another phone with no problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Android The Greek:
Grip of Death!

Jk
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hyelton:
When tethering phone sits on one place not being touched and it will do it lol.

Would the SIM card do it with this phone and not another? cause I never had this issue with the ZL
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
Possibly. ..

With the ability to provision the SIM to the device, a new card or at least having the provision checked by the carrier may be a good idea.

Did they give you a new SIM with your 2nd device ??

If not, the issue would persist to the next device.

I recall a similar thread a few weeks ago, and the SIM was provisioned incorrectly. The user called the carrier and they had the wrong data setup.

It's worth a phone call, and a SIM. ...imho....g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hyelton:
I have a Regular Sized sim at home I`m gonna go get I can cut it myself I have a cutter and see what happens. I SHOULD be on the right data plan. It shows up a LTE Data Unlimited.

I have had the same sim since before I got the phone. But the odd thing is it does not happen on any other device. I`ll try it out when I get back in a few.

This info might help, Okay So I where I live service is weird, There is NO LTE here for about 30 miles but sometimes the other line here which is a Note 1 it will switch between LTE and 3G a lot but usually when it switched to LTE data wont work til it drops back down to 3G which is a pain (I think they are testing it here) well anyway I can go under the service menu and force it to LTE and sometimes data will work on LTE which is amazing for here haha) BUT when I force my Note 2 to LTE it just gets service but it will say Emerancy Calls Only any idea why mine says that and the other will work atleast half decent? and say AT&T? Does that help to add that? I went to Raleigh and Wilmington 2 months ago with my old Note 2 and LTE worked fine so I know I was provisioned for LTE and have an LTE sim cause it worked fine out that way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hyelton:
Replaced Sim I had laying around brand new still having the same issue.

So what could be causing this? The Only thing I really did was go into the feild test menu to change it to UMTS only so it would stop switching, even setting it back to automatic its doing it. But I dont think that would make it do this
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
Edited. ..

More info provided by OP...g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hyelton:
Not sure if I posted in the first post but its NOT A CARRIER/NETWORK ISSUE

It happens in OTHER STATES 300 miles from where I am at now it still happens. and it ALSO happens sitting right NEXT to my AT&T MicroCell. and if it was a network issue it would affect ALL of my other devices ive had my sim in.

Also this issue ONLY happened after updating it to the latest modem
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
Then we need to be looking at modems.

The update killed the UCALJ2 files and gave you the UCAMA4 version.

Radio interface libraries keep the modem fed with the network information it needs to connect.

The search for the UCALJ2 files is on. ..

You can flash the RIL'S only and try the fix.

But you'll need root and custom recovery.

Let me look around for a bit. ..g

---------- Post added at 08:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:37 PM ----------

Well. ...nada..can't find stand alone RILS.

Right now. .the only RILS are inside of a stock ODIN build.

I guess a downgrade would get the service back, but you would lose multi-windows.

An ODIN downgrade would keep the phone stock, but I'm not sure about the flash counter.

Your thoughts? ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hyelton:
Already tired on my old one and this one. Flashed STOCK 4.1.1 via odin and baseband is to the older one and still does not fix it.

On my old note 2 I had as SOON as I did the update the problem occurred during the same day after the update, But even flashing the older modem back NEVER fixed the issue.

I even tried it on this phone flashing an old modem still does not work. How come there is NO ODIN flashable modem? just CWM flashable modems?

I flashed the k7 one via CWM and no change. But I can not seem to find a flashable modem that works via ODIN.

also im not worried about keeping the phone stock, thats what triangle away is for.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
We don't have Odin modems because they are pulled from roms and bundled into .zip format for easy use.

They can be made into .tar or .img format, but Odin is a pain as you need a PC. (Unless mobile Odin is used)...

I'm puzzled as too the reason for the failure, after running every possible fix.

I keep going back to the data package. ..as something is just not feeling right.

When I got this device, the carrier was having trouble getting my data package "fixed" as it had no LTE.

They fixed it once. ..and nothing. Then I called again and they fixed it again and it worked.

I'm not sure if there are levels of data they adjust, or how they "fix" it....but they do.

It appears that you have exhausted all possible fixes on your end, so perhaps a call is warranted?

The "weird" data issue on the network may be only the network.

Gotta get some sleep. ..g
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] HyperM3:
Ok, Im retarted. I got my HTC One and had no clue what I was doing trying to unlock it. Well, I eventually got it unlocked but somehow installed the ADB and Bootloader from my Nexus4 onto it. I cant figure out how I did that or how to get the correct ADB and Bootloader onto the device now.

Can anyone assist me?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nugzo:
well you dont install ADB to your phone, thats on your computer. You may have installed the wrong boot.img but probably not the bootloader. please give more details. list the files you installed to the One.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] HyperM3:
Ok, so I went out and bought a new laptop since the one I was using was 8 years old running XP and took 5 minutes to open any program.

Anyway, I downloaded the all-in-one-toolkit on the laptop and did a factory reset on the phone. I installed the correct drivers on the computer(hopefully). The phone is still saying its unlocked when I put it in fastboot mode. I have it connected right now and Im trying to install the TWRP but the CMD prompt is just sitting there saying <waiting for device>.

Im the least techie technophile there is apparently. I usually have a friend do all this set up crap on every phone and then I have no problems installing kernels and ROM's after that. Its this beginning crap I always get lost on.

Im seriously so frustrated that Im debating if I even want to keep the phone anymore.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] CheesyNutz:
wait because you can't get it install a recovery your going to rage quit ..... dang
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] HyperM3:
If you have had this phone since Friday and have been working on doing this the whole time, wouldnt you be feeling the same way?? Maybe since you have already done all this you might be able to lend a helping hand.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
you're seeing waiting for device because you don't have the drivers installed correctly.

are you on windows 8?

get the drivers from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2135381

then look at the link to how to use adb and fastboot in my signature
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] HyperM3:
Now Im on W8, never used this operating system before either so Im trying to figure this out as I go. Im a Mac guy(still on Leopard though, dont get me started).

So I used the CMD prompt to unlock the bootloader in the first place. The all in one toolkit is a POS, it doesnt seem to do anything. Anyway, so I went to your link and installed the drivers. All I want to do is root the device so I can install TWRP or vice versa(again, I always had a friend do this).
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
once you have the drivers installed

it's simple and all in ones aren't needed really.

I have a mac too and have to do it all by hand.

follow the directions in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2182792

I installed cwm then installed the root.zip.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] HyperM3:
Im just extremely computer illiterate apparently. No matter what I do my computer still says device not recognized. When I click on the device manager theres a yellow triangle over "my HTC". I click on it to try to update the drivers and it says they are up to date. I have no clue if thats even important. Im in research overload right now.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
Still have access to a Mac? So much easier
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] HyperM3:
Yeah, Im on the mac for all of this research.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
install fastboot and adb for the mac and use it instead

commands are the same, no driver BS to worry about
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] HyperM3:
I might just have to try that. I went through the whole rigamarole of creating the android folder and in there I put ADB, fastboot, adbwinapi.dll and the TWRP img file. I got the command line open trying to install the TWRP and it just sits there still saying <waiting for device>.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
Trust me the mac is much easier
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] HyperM3:
Ok, I have everything hooked up to the mac. When the phone is powered on I can use android file transfer to see all the folders in the phone. When I disconnect the phone, reboot into bootloader and then reconnect the phone, thats where Im lost. No clue what Im supposed to do next.

I have a folder on the desktop with the fastboot, adb and TWRP file in there. Im able to navigate my command prompt to that folder and then.....no clue what next.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gunnyman:
ok open a command prompt

use spotlight and type terminal

once terminal is open

cd to the directory you put those files in

for example

cd /Users/Gunnyman/Desktop/files

once you're there

type ls and hit enter

this will give you a list of the files in that directory

you should see fastboot and adb and the recovery image

make sure your recovery is unzipped and says somefilename.img

once you've verified the files are there

type ./fastboot devices

you should see a serial number there

if it isn't there make sure you see fastboot when you did the ls command from before

next is installing the recovery

the command is ./fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img

after that completes completely power down your phone

power it back up and when it boots type ./adb reboot bootloader

from there choose recovery and recovery should boot

sometimes this takes a couple of tries to make it stick.

installing the root is as simple as dragging the root.zip or whatever it's called onto your phone rebooting to recovery and installing it
