[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] teddygreen17:
For beanstalk 1.1.190 for 4.2.2 - which uses the Cyanogenmod 10.1 base, does anyone know how to put the 3G, 4G symbols back in the status bar? I would like it to display the AT&T symbols (modem) rather than the (i believe) T-Mobile.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ramram:
I'm in the Middle East (Lebanon) , Band 900Mhz (Libancell).

I upgraded to WM2003 T-mobile cooked Rom vers 4.01.16 & RSU to 4.21.00 after the

RSU

upgrade

I'm having weak signal sometimes I lose it

,It's abviously not working fine, In your opinion what shall I use an RSU version to get a better signal thus this RSU is made for such countries and bands, I'm totaly confused and scared to make any move coz of the threads that I read :cry: I don't wanna lose my XDA.

Plz!!!! :roll: notify me I want to get rid of the signal loss, Thanks in advance.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] jarekt:
same problem here

I have the same problem. Sometimes my MDA loses reception and searches for GSM signal - after soft reset it gets more than 70% signal strenght. I know that MDA is not the best phone on the world but those reception problems makes me think that's time to switch to normal PDA conencted with good cell phone. Additionally I have cheap GPRS but I have to pay a lot every time it connects to a network - with poor reception connection drops very often and i have to pay for reestablishing it...

BTW. I have same ROM and RS versions as above.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
I agree it's a risk to play with the RSU ... especially this R4.21 :(

Anyway, if your device is PW10A then try the RSU 3.25 from carrier devices ... it's perfect for the Mid East area.

If your device is PW10B, then try the T6.25.02 which can work with 900 MHz ... I 'm using it in Egypt.

Again, be extreamly careful as R4.21 is not easily upgradable!! ... I wouldn't recommend EXE upgrade, instead, extract the 4 files from the exe and put them on the \windows\startup directory of your device.

Cross ur fingers and may God help :)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ramram:
Only Hope!

Thank you Bisso, My device is PW10A but since the T-mobile Rom installed I can see in the device information "PW10B". Well then , still the device hardware is PW10A , Good Luck to me :? , I'll tell ya what will happen with me..
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ramram:
Re: Only Hope!

Biso, I extracted the files they are not 4 files!. I found out in that cab file 7 files :S 0rilgsm1.005 , 000setup.999 , MONITO~1.002 , MONITO~1.003 , RSUPGR~1.000 , RSUPGR~1.001 , RSUPGR~1.004 .

and there's no .exe file :S what shall I do in this case ?!? I'm still lost . I think am going through the executable file but does this Qtek RSU work on the O2 XDA??
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ramram:
Re: Only Hope!

Done installation success 100% :D "I used the executable file", now I'll get my eye on the signal for couple days till then I might revert back to the old RSU version surely not the

R4.21

, Thanks for your assistance.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] jarekt:
thax

I worked for me as well. Exe upgrading without problems. Now let's observe if there is any diffrence :)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ramram:
??!?

I don't wanna disapoint you guys but I'm still having the weak signal thus I know from my previous cell that the strength signal stays on top all the time (I just tried another cell to make sure, still full signal ), so where's the problem here? Is it from the ROM WM2003 or from the RSU?

From where can I get the old RSU VER 3.16 for middle east region ,I just wanna know where we are going wrong :s, thanks in advance.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ramram:
Re: ??!?

Remember weak signal but am not losing it , meaning it was a worth of updates ,good luck xda'res :D
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ramram:
Re: ??!?

To whom it may concern, I reverted back to the Special Edition Rom and I noticed that the Signal stays on top all the time :) I guess it has to do something with the WM2003 Roms which is very sad of conclusion.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] jarekt:
U need MY|PHONE by JGUI (freeware) it shows signal strenght in % on today screen.

Maybe it will be easier to compare ROMs with this plugin.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ramram:
I have been on using the Special edition rom for 3 days and till now I didnt lose the signal the strenght keeps ontop, conclusion it has something with the Rom , I don't know what would be the incompatibilty in that , I wish if there would be some Techs here to help us or tell us what's happening.. I'm sure if i'll revert back to the WM2003 I'll face the problem with weak signal and lose it :(
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] jarekt:
As the matter of fact we can ask official T-mobile or ATT support - there's something wrong with WM2003. I have nothing common with ATT naither T-mobile so I cannot do this...

BACKUP

Download the latest firmware (3 parted).

Load the files into Odin. (!Pit File!/PDA/Phone/CSC)

Bring phone in download mode.

Connect phone to PC.

Select 'Repartition' and 'Auto reboot'.

Start flash.

Phone is on newest version then (unrooted)

For more Infos use the search function and/or Google.

Much success

thanks again
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Even easier method.....

BACKUP current setup

1) download the firmware from Sam mobile or samsung updates.com

2) visit this thread.....

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19375402

read all the instructions and download the MobileOdin app from the first post

3) in that same thread, go to post number 5 and download.....

MobileOdin_FlashKernel_I9100G-v1.0zip

4) install MobileOdin

5) extract and install the FlashKernel

6) open MobileOdin and import your downloaded firmware

7) begin the flash.......

Don't get much easier than that..... :)

Edit.....Here's the link to the l9100G firmwares at samsung-updates.com

http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9100G

Edit 2.....I know that the paid version of MobileOdin will extract the firmware from the download zip....I'm not sure if the lite version will.....probably best to extract it first....before importing it to M.O.

Flash a I9100G custom kernel via odin (.tar file) so you can get to CWM.

After that make sure you are flashing an I9100G ROM not a I9100 ROM.

like pit file and stuff ?

My advice....get your phone up and running with the latest firmware, then take your time and consider whether you really NEED to be rooted.....Obviously if you intend to go down the custom ROM route. ..then you do need root....if you intend to stay with stock, but want to debloat it...again, you need root....

but otherwise. ........

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
No....no other config needed....just make sure you have the latest phone drivers installed on your pc (available through kies)

Make sure kies is NOT running....kill it in your task manager if it is.

Make sure any pc firewalls are disabled.

If you're running windows 7, open Odin as an administrator.

Make sure you are using the USB cable that came with your phone and that it is plugged into a 'primary' usb port (connected directly to the pc motherboard)

Ok...no response.....so....

Step by step odin flash guide..

1) turn off any firewalls on your pc

2) kill all Kies processes in your task manager

3) extract the downloaded firmware zip

4) open Odin as administrator

5) bring your extracted firmware into Odin....

If it's a single package bring it to PDA

if it's more than one file then flash...

PDA..CODE

PHONE..MODEM

CSC..CSC

6) switch your phone off, put it into download mode...

vol down+power+home keys together....then vol up

7) connect your phone to the pc via the official usb cable

8) wait for the 'COM' box to change colour

9) make sure that pit and repartition are NOT selected

10) recheck step 9

11) press start

12) wait for Odin to complete the flash

Did it pass?

13) (I think) your phone will restart

14) disconnect phone

15) if your phone does not go past boot, switch off and reboot into recovery to factory reset....then reboot as normal.....

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] XGhozt:
I need an extra push, I'm hoping to find it here.

I'm coming from a Galaxy S2. There are two things I will have to live without, can anyone tell me if I should be worried?

1. The lack of a menu and search button.

2. Not having the ability to take out the battery.

On another note, I was wondering if someone could confirm if it's possible to remove the HTC Sense? The first thing I plan on doing is rooting it and removing basically any software HTC and AT&T add. One other question.. does anyone know if the IR can be setup to use custom commands, or if that's something we have to wait for developers?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] shook187:
I don't have much to add on here except the search button is so two years ago. No need to have that button there with the advent of long pressing and double tapping.

The one is probably awesome, but since you have a s2,you might check out the s4

Most people that cry about batteries are usually closet Samsung fanboys. The ability to "take out the battery" is a bit overrated. Sorry but I don't have any need to add a brick to the back of my phone just so I can show off some "amazing battery stats"
