Unlock Success :>) Now CM Version question?

Many thanks to you all for the help. After doing a Factory Reset (brought the phone back to 4.04), the Unlock worked great, exactly as stated. I then brought it to Metro to get it registered on their Network (cost me $10.65 but that was fine)... worked great as a phone.... but he "forgot" to update the APN's, they were still T-mo, so no data :>(. Found on the forum here what and how to configure the APN's (Metro APN, T-mo MMCS) and got it up and going. I then used Kies to update the phone to 4.1.2. Wife likes the phone/keyboard, but really need to get full access to the SD for memory. So....

Which is best CM for Stability with NO Issues - CM 10.2 or is 11 up to speed now? My wife will Not play with a phone to find ways around issues.

Any thoughts gratefully accepted, and thanks again for all your help.

can not unlock

Please, can someone help ? I bought T699 with simlock and with Android 4.1.2. This manual for unlock is not functional - i dont have 4th menu item.

So i tried this method - downgrade to UVMA2 stock firmware with Odin 3.10.6

Everything is OK, but phone is not running after restart. I have only SAMSUNG logo blonking on LCD after splash screen. If i upload original firmware (UVMA5), phone is working.

Please, can someone help me? How can I unlock my phone? I want cyanogenmod after unlock. Can I load cyanogenmod and try this again?

many thanks,

Petr

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Guiyoforward:
Thanks a lot! Unfortunately, many dead links in this forum, understandable for a dying phone. I managed to download a JB (not the ICS) stock amd the old modem, both flashed with CWM, and the trick worked like a charm. I am looking for a cwm-flashable version of the new modem, just in case, so everything is shiny new.

Thanks!

2015 update

Just an update. There is a lot of hard to find information in this thread. So many damn letters to keep track of. Dead links. Ugh.

A couple of notes:

Jelly Bean (4.1.x) WILL NOT WORK to unlock your device using this method. The menu option [4] will never appear as its been removed from this image. Don't bother downloading the JB images, they won't help. Don't waste your time unless....

You'll need 4.0.4 (aka IceCreamSandwich), aka UVMA2. Either this already needs to be installed, or you'll need to flash the device with Odin with UVMA2. (LINK NOT ALLOWED SINCE I AM A NEW USER.....) Choose the T699UVAMA2_T699TMBAMA2_TMB.zip package. Contains the complete factory UVMA2 image (bootloader, recovery image, system image, and radio). Unzip, and find the complete md5 file, ready for uploading via Odin

My Relay 4G came from eBay with 4.1.x installed already. Doing the instructions on 4.1.x doesn't work.

To downgrade to ICS/4.0.4/UVMA2, I used the image I mentioned above, flashed it with Odin, booted into 4.0.4, and performed the unlock. Menu option [4] appeared immediately, instructions worked perfectly. Verified by installing a non Tmobile sim, works fine.

Now I'll put ClockworkRecoveryMod back on, and upgrade to CM11...
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Suncatcher16:
If you read this manual carefully, you'd have been aware of 4.0.4 necessity. No need to your post[emoji6]
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] KirbyCrouton:
Actually, what it says is that you need UVMA2 installed. As a newbie, that was not clear UVMA2=4.0.4. The point of the post was to try and clarify that. And to post a URL to where UVMA2 images could be downloaded in 2015, but as a new user I was unable to reference the image.

Just trying to help, after spending a couple hours trying to figure out how to complete the procedure. Maybe I'm thick.

Thanks for being so welcoming! Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] aithnea:
Confirming this lazy option for any other late late adopters like myself, you only need to flash the UVMA2 radio firmware if you get one that comes with 4.1.2

The 4th option becomes available then.

I got the radio firmware from this awesome post... which surprisingly does not have dead download links as of Jan 2016

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaitanya91845:
My Nexus S's motherboard died and the guys at Samsung service centre are demanding $160 for a replacement. I am really confused as to what I should do. $160 is too steep, but the phone is in mint condition.

Any suggestions? I live in India, so consider local prices too if you would suggest buying a used Nexus S instead of getting mine repaired.

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

P.S.; Prices of used nexus s at ebay.in starts at $200!!

Edit: Could a mod move this thread to the QA section? Apologies for posting it in the wrong section.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magusxd:
How are u sure it's dead ? Samsung service doesn't repair motherboards they just replace them so if ur phone doesn't work for reason A or B they just replace the motherboard or whatever is defect.

You can try a regular mobile phone service center and ask them how much they want for a repair.

200$ or 160$ for just a nexus s it's really a high amount ur better off with a new phone

ps. what happen to ur nexus and it doesn't work now ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaitanya91845:

[Streak 5 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Decent tutorial, but you're making this far more complex than it need be. The Streak is perhaps one of the easiest devices to root in that it doesn't require a one-click root tool to do it. Instructions.can be found in the XDA Wiki here. The one thing that seems to trip people up when rooting the Streak is letting it boot completely after installing StreakMod or ClockWorkMod. After installing the recovery, immediately booting into the recovery will allow you to install Superuser, which is all you need to root a Streak. Once rooted, let the Streak boot completely, use a file manager to rename or delete install-recovery.sh, and then install the recovery again. Install-recovery.sh is a script which restores the stock recovery on every boot. Renaming the file prevents it from running.

Additional information can be found here.
[Streak 5 Android Development] mamoid:
Basically, the thing is what all i did for Flashing a customized ROM on my DS5 and like wise all the research i did in that regards is all mentioned,including some MODs developed by able DEVs which basically were distributed in different pages all i did is put'em together for sophisticating the readers and getting the most out of it....

I really appreciate your effort for the time that you have incurred in reading the article and sharing with me some fragments of your vast knowledge...cheers :)

moid
[Streak 5 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The only reason I mentioned the Flashing Guide itself is to point out what it says about one-click root tools. They're not necessary and they can brick the Streak if they issue a fastboot -erase command after they are done. Fastboot -erase is pretty much a death sentence for the Streak.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty68:
Looking like there's no solution, but if I don't ask...

I work odd shifts, every day different and I can set the alarm anywhere from 3:30am to mid afternoon. I want the alarm to have a snooze option when I set it but each time I set one it resets for the next time. Re-using an alarm isn't a great option due to the shifts, I'd prefer to s-voice a new alarm each day without messing about.

If there's no solution to changing the alarm defaults,perhaps there's a way to change the default alarm clock itself, perhaps to alarmclock extreme?

thanks

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sush143555:
I personally used HTC one and now am using Galaxy s4.The only area where the HTC one excelled is the build quality but to be honest s4 quality is not too bad .it is really solid compared to the Galaxy s3.HTC one is loaded with creepy software where everything is a confusion.not many new options are introduced in the htc one except the boom sound,blink feed .I dont know why the blogs are giving bad reviews to the galaxy s4.it is lot better compared to htc one,xperia z or zl and any other smartphones now even the one of the most useless iphone 5 which is the longest phone according to Apple :cyclops:

so please share your opinions about the s4...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] skivnit:
Only American reviews bashed the s4. Also blogs tend to want to start trends so if the big ones start talking about plastic vs aluminum everyone else will. All bad reviews are based on build materials only. Anyway you can't force your choice on others ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] barondebxl:
Don't have the S4 yet but from vids, reviews and users I can say that the S4 has a better build quality then the One. Build quality is no the same as design and choice of material. Many One users complain(Ed) about speakers falling off, gap between the screen and the body of the phone stuff like that. The S4 doesn't have a flaw in its build. Sure its plastic but it is well build. There's no crack any where, no holes or nothing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] RBeaubien:
I have to say, I just switched from the HTC One to the S4. The One is a quality piece of hardware. The speakers on the front is really nice and it feels really good in the hand. I have 2 primary issues with it. One, Sense has not kept up with the latest good features that have been added to JellyBean. It seems to be a really dated interface. Two, ok, so you don't like the OS provided, unlock the bootloader using the HTC supplied method. OOps, now you have voided your hardware warranty (and they know about it). Big problem when your non-user serviceable battery dies a year into your 2 year contract....

The S4 is not as sexy a hardware platform, but it has better OS, and given enough time, you should be able to root/unlock and install your own OS. Even if it voids your warranty, you can still replace the battery, add micro SD memory and more. Right now I will settle for rooting it and removing bloatware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] franchezka:
I also don't have the Samsung Galaxy S4 yet but I would love to buy as soon as payday comes. I love the features and also I am looking for the quality of camera when buying a phone and it's good. Hoping to have the phone soon.

when you softreset with the card inside, you cant save the pocketword.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] BRosenow:
I would bet that there are few (if any) others who have this experience. I read and write to my SanDisk 1GB SD card, as well as the 512MB and 256MB cards I use for music, movies, etc. and the 128MB I use for backups, and SoftReset from time to time and have NEVER experienced the problems you relate and there is ALWAYS a card in the slot.

I would suspect your SD card (it is an SD card - not a MM card, right?) or the SDIO slot in your device. This is not normal!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
maybe it's a kingston thing

tell me is the rw lock yellow ? some guy were talking about cards with yellow rw locks often had issues

another thing are the word files on the sd card or ?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] mindgames:
yes it yellow, what i found is dont soft reset with that card inside, it will mess all of your system. otherwise it work great.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] elio:
I totally agree with mindgames: when u soft reset with sd card inserted, u r looking for troubles:)

File explorer for example won't function properly and will freeze everytime u try to copy/paste/cut or delete.
