[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] t2abousa:
I Have the AT&T S4... should I switch to T-mobile S4? (bootloader issues)... I want to make the move before I can no longer return my AT&T S4... any thoughts? I know the AT&T S4 would tend to have more going on in terms of roms and development, but even well known devs are saying stay away from this version... seems like they dont think it's gonna happen soon at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] nlghtcrawler:
From what I read on the T-Mobile forums they are still trying to figure out if the bootloader is locked like ours
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] datrumole:
right there with you, i've got 13 more days to return-no-questions-asked, just a little butt-hurt i already traded my lovely GS2 in :crying: should have kept that little sucker around until all this washed over. I would go over to HTC One, as it is developer-friendly, but i just can't bring myself to a non-reparable design as these USB ports at the bottom go after time, no swapable batt, and missing micro SD card (love having my pics there in case phone dies, while it's not the ultimate in security, it's at least a small form of backup). Also, the added screen real estate i think is the perfect phone size.

Really hoping the TMob version can be SIM swapped, might not make it to my return date to get confirmation on this....boo
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sabre31:

Figures... now to see if I can buy the T-mobile version without having a t-mobile line. At&T and Verizon dont allow it. Anyone know if they will let you?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
This site claims to have the unlocked US T-Mobile S4 available for pre-order. I have no experience with them, but they are mentioned several times in the S4 forums.

http://negrielectronics.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=s4#.UYDASknD_IU

...and for $70 cheaper than the AT&T unlocked S4!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] t2abousa:
Nice, thanks! My concern is that they are probably talking about sim unlock which is possible on At&T already, I wish we had someone who owns a t-mobile S4 and can confirm an unlocked or unlockable bootloader.

EDIT: Looks like according to the t-mobile forum theirs is unlocked bootloader. Im hoping we can just get the bootloader unlocked by then but if not.. plan B!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
Wasn't your original question about where to buy a T-Mobile S4 without having a T-Mobile line? If so, that site claims to have them. If you are planning on using the T-Mobile S4 on AT&T networks it will need to be sim unlocked. Otherwise, I'm not sure why you are looking to buy a T-Mobile S4 without having a T-Mobile line. As far as the bootloader goes, AT&T is locked, T-Mobile is not, but that has nothing to do with a T-Mobile phone on an AT&T line? Maybe I am just not understanding what you are looking for?

do everything from start again. It seems ok. Just make sure you have attached your phone into back side usb ports, not front side of cabinet. And do put your phone's battery in while updating, just no sim, no sd card. And learn to wait, cause sometime it looks stuck with not responding kdz updater during proccess, just don't touch and wait and wait and wait.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grifta67:
Hi there,

I have an odd situation. I need to buy a couple unlocked S4s with the intention of only using them on WiFi. I work for a research company, and we just need them to test out some of the new fancy features. We have no need for cell or data service.

The only unlocked ones are astronomically priced, which is fine, but I need to make certain that we'd be able to use them on WiFi. Do they still need activated or something, or will they just power on like normal and just display "No SIM" up top?

My concern is that they'll boot up into a setup screen that won't let me advance without some sort of active SIM card. The only point of comparison I have is when we did this with some unlocked iPhone 5s, we still had to get them dummy activated at the Apple Store.

Thanks!

Dear Friends,

I was trying to root my phone. I downloaded a STOCK ROM using Desktop ODIN and after the ROM was downloaded, the phone started and I keep getting errors like these

Unfortunately maps has stopped

Unfortunately the process android.process.acrore has stopped

Unfortunately Google Play Store has stopped

And so on

I have tried with N7000XXLRK_N7000DBTLRK_N7000XXLRK_HOME.tar.md5 and N7000DDLR6_N7000ODDLR2_N7000DDLR1_HOME.tar.md5 so far and I have also tried the Pre-Rooted ROM SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar

My phone is un-usable as of now. I cannot even enter the menu. All i have to keep doing is pressing ok on these error messages.

Please help. How can i restore the phone back to normal?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
Ok, there is no need to open a new thread for this stuff. You already had one....

That is because you are doing dirty flashes. Do the following:

Reboot into stock recovery and flash philz kernel (just to make sure that you are safe)

Reboot recovery (you should have CWM now)

Do a full wipe (wipe data/factory reset - wipe cache partition - format system - format data - format preload)

Reboot in download mode and re flash the Stock firmware with ODIN PC

Then you should be ready to go...

I've read elsewhere that the new S4 bootloader has locked.

Can someone verify this?

How does it affect the usage of the device?(i.e CM,AOSP etc)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChronoReverse:
So far only on the AT&T and Verizon models.

They'll have root for now but no custom recovery/roms.

But it's not confirmed yet,isn't it?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inline:
The AT&T and Verizon bootloader is locked, which will restrict flashing roms and kernels but not root for those devices until the bootloader is unlocked. The international versions seem to be not locked so that does apply to all the octa versions.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackwolf10:

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hunhool:
Is there any simple way to find out whether is locked or not?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inline:
There isn't sadly. People were saying if you boot into download mode and it said Write Protection: Enabled that the bootloader was locked, as is the case for atnt and verizon, but the it says the same thing for sprint and our bootloader does not seem to be locked- it's a bit more complicated to actually know and I don't have the tech knowledge to explain it as well as someone else probably could. Probably should find others with your exact phone in the forum and just read what they have said cause this has been a huge topic over the last few days that everyone has been asking.

sony's pc companion still doesn't support me for updating with pc companion :(

What can i do before it works?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
It should do. Please tell us the error you get. However, if you are trying to flash that ftf file you do not do it in pccompanion, you need flashtool
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zetto123:
problem still comes

iam flashing with no problems with flashtool, and the ftf works fine on my phone, then i take it to sony pc companion and trying to update it with it.

then i get an error that custom firmware is installed
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
OK, if you have unlocked your bootloader you can no longer use pccompanion.

That would have been explained when you went through the process of unlocking the bootloader.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zetto123:
is it possible to lock it somehow again?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
yes, search for relock bootloader xperia v

But your warrenty is void anyway now.

found one, and seems like it works.

*#*#7378423#*#* says that it is "Bootloader unlock allowed - Yes"

and it is now updating, think it works :)

thank you alot!

now i can finally get sony to repair my screen that they destroyed when i send it to them :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Probably not. You have voided your warrenty when you unlocked and relocking the bootloader willnot hide that fact.

You gave them your IMEI number when you unlocked, and you modified your trim area (That's why you lost drm keys) and relocking does not restore the TA.

PS, No need to say thanks in a post, just use the button.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zetto123:
oh okay, so it didn't really matter that i reset it to factory, they will still just give me the same message...

damn Sony, i will never buy a phone from them again...

seriusly they destroyed my phone at their repair service, but now i just have to argue with them, don't think that XDA can help me with this anymore then done now.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
well if sony broke the screen you may have a case to get them to fix it.

But it is very clearly stated that you lose warrenty when unlocking the bootloader. I think all carriers do the same (If they let you unlock at all, Sony are very good at this and this is why they have been voted xda's OEM of the year for the past few years because they are so Dev friendly)

You just need to read the fine print a bit more carefully I think
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zetto123:
well i dont think that it's too clearly stated, when they write that you may void the warrenty, it doesn't say that i void the warrenty, only that i may void it.

hmm yearh, Sony isn't that bad at all, and their products work...

well think it will be alot easier now to talk with Sony about the problem now.

is there some way i should mark this thread as solved?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zetto123:
hmm now i get a new bug after i did this...

I can't install apps from google store, getting error 403.

Hello, I've just bought my gf the 8.9 32gb version and she's not keen on the overlay UI and the lack of stuff on amazons market so she's asked me to root it.

1) If I root it, can I get it back to default state without showing that its previously been rooted? (any insuring later)

2) If you install the Play store, what device does the store think you have in order to install apps/games etc?

3) its just updated itself, am I right in thinking it cannot be rooted from this latest software? is downgrading easy?

4) Will we lose the things that are already on it? (Full wipe)

Thanks :)
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4iiiidnerd:
There's been no change to update methods, the bin4ry method, option 2 has always worked. If you look @ lizzard30's SteriROM 1.2 thread, you'll end up by-passing the whole rooting process, end up rooted, w/android market & more installed. Just make sure you adb drivers are properly installed: Windows 8 will definitely block installation of unsigned drivers, and Windows 7 a bit too--google search disabling driver signature enforcement for the OS your installing computer uses if it's Windows.

As part of the install process, you'll deregister from amazon. All your programs you've installed will be wiped, so if it ain't part of the of the install package you'd have to reinstall. You can select to wipe your SDCARD, but that isn't necessary. Music and documents should still be there.

If you're going Gi Joe this and root, install busybox, then android market, that's kool. You'll need bin4rys root method to root, get busybox installer from 1mobile market website, enable installation of unknown programs. You want the installer for after rooting--install it, open it, install busybox. Then you'll need kindle fire first aid. Don't use KFFA to root or install busybox. Install busybox, it's required to use KFFA. Use KFFA to install market first, then market apps if you'd like.

Good luck! Oh, if you don't deregister and use SteriROM and go medieval instead, visit application manager and wipe data for kindle reader, amazon vod, and silk. Maybe a few other amazon apps ... otherwise not all your stuff will show up.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] skyliner33v:
As all of you are well aware, Scott is a major reason why we are able to enjoy Jellybean goodness on our Infuses. Without him, who knows where we would be. He decided to take the challenge of building JB for us, and has continued to improve it so that we can now enjoy a wealth of new features.

Well Scott recently let me know that he was invited to the very first XDA Dev-Con. For those of you who don't know what that is, XDA Dev-Con is a conference by developers, for developers. It's a chance for the brightest developers across XDA to come together and meet in person to share and collaborate their ideas and help further the development on XDA. As well as attend presentations from the very best on XDA.

And as some of you probably already know as well, Scott has a little one coming along the way, and if he's like any other parent out there, he is investing a lot of money in preparation for having a baby around the house. But I know that he would very much like to go to the XDA Dev-Con.

The conference is being held August 9-11 in Miami Florida at the Conrad-Hilton Hotel. This location that was picked is "relatively inexpensive", but I can only imagine what it must cost to stay in Miami.

So this is where you come in. I am asking the Infuse community to come together and see if we can't raise enough money to help send Scott to the XDA Dev-Con in Miami. I think it would be a great way to show Scott how appreciated he is for his development on the Infuse. And his Beanstalk ROM has been slowly flooding across XDA to other devices, including much newer devices like the SGS3, and the Note 2. Yes, the SGS3 and Note 2 are running ROMs that Scott had built for the Infuse because it is that good. And if you read through those threads, they all praise how many great features are built into Beanstalk. I believe it's been ported to about 15 different devices. And I'm sure more will follow. All because of Scott's dedication to the Infuse.

I know that we can find a way to help send Scott to Miami. I'm not going to set up any kind of fund for him, but ask that you donate directly to him through his donation link found here:

Yes! I want to Donate to Scott!

We can let Scott decide how he would like to spend the money.

I know that I would love to see a post from Scott that shows a confirmation letter to XDA Dev-Con. I hope that you do as well. And even if we don't manage to raise enough to send him, I for one will know that I have donated to a great developer, and a great person. And soon, a great father.

So let's send Scott to Miami!

Infuse Rom maintainers, if you would be so kind as to post a link back to this thread I would appreciate it. *I want to get the word spread to others that may not see this thread, but I do not want to spam. *Thank you.

[Mods, I apologize if this is in the wrong section. But I posted here because I think people visit this section more than the others. Please move to the correct forum if necessary.]
