I can't help but think this is a dumb question, but I've searched for the answer here as well as trawled through the phone settings without luck.

When I receive a call, the caller id offers me the name of the person calling, so long as they are inthe contacts list of course :wink:

However, received SMS messages remain unresolved and I'm given a semi-useless phone number. We all know what a pain it can be trying to fit a name to a number......

SO guys, what am I missing here ?

Thanks in advance.....

I paid full price for my phone, I have called and spoken to 5 different AT&T Reps and every single one of them either tells me "we cant do it" or that the "code isnt available" . With the new law thing i though if you paid full non contract price for a phone they were obligated to unlock for you?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] hamzer11:
I would speak to a manager. Did you buy the phone directly from them? Most unlocking services have the codes in their systems now so there is no way AT&T doesn't have the code.

I work for AT&T, and we usually don't unlock new phones for the first 6 months a phone is out. Especially with a flagship phone.

Your best bet is to go through a 3rd party and just suck it up and pay for the unlock.

AT&T is under no obligation to give you an unlock code. They do it strictly as a courtesy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] theraker007:
I dont know if this helps, but when i bought my note 2 last november after it came out... i did so off contract and i ran into the same issue. AT&T reps typically seem like they get the codes 30-90 days after a product comes out and then theyll happily unlock it for you.. it seems like they aren't going to or arent able to unlock a brand new phone that just released.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mocsab:
I was giving serious thought to returning my ATT S4 and buying a TMOBILE S4 (which doesn't have a locked boot loader) and then using it on ATT. TMOBILE Is heavily promoting that they don't lock you into contracts and will unlock your phone if you leave. When I contacted TMOBILE and asked if I could buy an S4 outright and then get it unlocked so I could use it on ATT they said they could do it - but that I had to wait 60 days after buying the phone to get it unlocked. Seemed kind of heavy handed to me - if I paid full price for the phone why would they make me wait 60 days?

Thats so weird. I just bought mine and its unlocked after talking to a rep. I think you just need to get lucky and speak to thr right person. I didn't use my upgrade I just purchased it straight out. Oh I did mention I was going overseas and that this is the only phone I have.

Courtesy?

My question is this and as you say you work for AT&T so you might be able to give me a straight answer... If I DON'T get the phone at a contract price and pay the $639.99 why should AT&T care what I do with the phone then? I can understand them not wanting to share codes for a subsidized phone but full retail? What do they loose by not sharing the code? With the prevalence of services like cellunlocker.net they don't have the ability to keep the device on lock down.

I just don't get the big deal assuming one opts to pay full non-contract price.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] americasteam:
AT&T does nothing out of courtesy. Once they have you as a cutomer, they could care less about you. ; (

I used the "overseas" thing on every person ive talked too. i have since spoken to 3 additional reps for a total of 8-9 and have been told the same thing by ALL of them. So i doubt they unlocked your phone for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] s44:
I think they really don't get the codes into their system for a month. For CS access, anyway -- I'm sure they're hiding somewhere.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] chocodough:
I wish I had a good answer for you, but unfortunately I don't. I'm low on the totem poll.

Like I said earlier, from what I understand, they won't give out unlock codes for atleast 6 months for new flagship phones, regardless of if it was bought at full cost or subsidized.

I guess the higher ups do consider it a courtesy, since I don't think legally they technically have to unlock phones.

I know it stinks, and I do think it's a major bummer that they won't unlock a phone bought at full price.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mostyle:

Well, this is the only one I could find cheaper @ $29.99: samsungimeiunlock . com

A lot of unlock sites don't have the S4 listed yet but prices will probably come down to around $20 in the next few months. I know you're not going to wait that long and it should be free given your situation, but just trying to help.

Also, there's another thread under AT&T GS4 Q&A section called "SIM Unlock" with quite a few replies on how AT&T does unlocks and other people's experiences. You may want to check that out. I'd link it but I'm too new of a user.

I called and spoke to tech support and they issue a case number and can take 3-5 business days. They send out to Samsung for it, I'm also a premier account.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] rexxcastle:
From what i saw there was less info in that thread than this one. Over the last week i have called ATT more times and talked to more reps than i can count and they all say the same thing, that is why i am calling BS on anyone who says ATT has unlocked their phone. If it were that easy at least 1 of the 20 different reps (phone and instore) would have been able to do it im sure

UPDATE: Ok i just called AGAIN, the answer i got this time was that my phone has an "exclusive model number" and that ATT can not submit an unlock request because of some "contract" with Samsung.

The stories im getting from these reps seem to be getting crazier and crazier.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nugged:
So, after diggin' for long time in registry on Pocket PC 2002 ROMs I've found nice feature - HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\

(may vary cause this is from 2003 ROM, for now I have but was like this and works on 2002), has value WakeUpPowerOff = 180 (by default).

This value (in seconds) determines, how long device will be on after:

1. power on by "power" button (and no other activity - no taps, no any hardware buttons pressing) - it userful for example to see "what's on

today", time, etc...

2. power on by incoming event like SMS or calendar one.

And after you touch screen\ other button - then as I found starts another, "original" timer, defined in Start->Settings->System->Power.

I've set above WakeUp parameter to WakeUpPowerOff = 12 (smallest that works really at mine device) and what I got? This:

When I need to look into today's or time or missed calls etc - I just press power look at screen and devices turns iself off byself. Not great effort but :) - heh - longer live for power button :)

But this is more important: When incomes SMS (I have gate from internet inbox to sms so have a lot of smses) - devices comes on only for 12 secs - for day it increases significantly battery life. (aha - 180sec and 12sec - differs!) (etc...). So we can set auto Off timer for 1 minute and work in normal mode (when we tap or read something, smaller is not so much siutable), but with this WakeUp timer also when we don't use device we get very small time to byself on\off-ing and longer battery life.

But after appearing 2003 in my wallaby and then after bying himalaya I have changed this parameter with no effect.

Now I find solution!

We need to change one more parameter in that registry subdirectory named:

DisableGwesPowerOff=1 by defalut. Simpy set it to 0.

And now on my XDA II (and on XDA I with 2003) this hacks works.

I think this will be userful for our XDA community. Thanks for paying attention for this text.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] SiliconS:
Hey, that is a very, very cool hack! :D I have always been annoyed when my XDA2 is in my pocket and I receive an SMS when I can't reply. During the 2 minutes before it switches itself off I find that the screen gets pressed a lot in my pocket with sometimes disastrous results. :oops:

This hack seems to have no side-effects at all. The XDA2 stays switched on in the cradle and changing the Power-off-on-battery setting doesn't reset this auto-off timer.

I dare to suggest even that it is perfect! Thank you very much nugged. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] eme:
Thank you realy love this one :idea:

Works fine with 5sec off on XDAII.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nugged:
2 SiliconS: That's some kind of pleasure to share with info and to help. :-)

2 eme: 5 sec? hmm... Ah! I think I have bigger lag cause I have setted up password protection and maybe it needs some time to initialize after on/before off... You haven't password protection on?

Anyway - it's works.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] SiliconS:
I've just had a thought: does this hack affect the alarms and appointment notifications? Does the machine turn itself off after 12 seconds and stop the alarm working? That might be a problem for some people if so. I can't test at the moment - my wife is asleep :)

Edit:

Just tested, quietly ;). It does affect the alarm. I set a repeating alarm. The machine turned on, sounded the alarm once and then switched off. When I turned it on again a few seconds later it sounded a repeat.

I think this hack is excellent if you don't use your XDA2 for alarms or notifications. Otherwise it might cause problems. :?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tadzio:
@nugged:

every PocketPC turns itself automatically on at midnight, to perform some magic regarding alarms etc. It is a known problem that sometimes it turns off too soon again, before having finished its work.

2 SiliconS: Yes, so that's maybe who need to have long alarms install additional soft and\or set up time longer, smth like 15 seconds.

As for me - yes, I use mine device lot of time so it often in mine hands and at my eyes so I don't need long alarms.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wayandrs:
Put down the pipe!!

What are you guys on, hacking the on time? I must be really confused... what about just using the power settings to turn of backlight after 10 seconds and power off if not used for 1 minute?

That's all I ever do and mine lasts easily through a weekend with a few hours of talk time and checking my e-mail at least 20 times.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nugged:
2 wayandrs: That's your decision :) If you satisfied with that standard system - good :). Anyway - it's not an order :) - it's just advice :)

Look - when you setup to run your backlight off after 10 seconds - try to work normally then :).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tadzio:
Yes, it does. You just don't see it because it's only a partial power-up: the display does not get switched on.

The OS needs to clean up appointments, and set alarms for the new day. Most of the time it succeeds, but sometimes the device powers off automatically before the OS could finish, resulting in alarms not going off. This is what tools like "Wakeup Tweak" are for - they just extend the time-out until the device powers down again.

Also, zendrui (the PocketZenPhone author) had a lot of... umm... fun with this feature when users configured PocketZenPhone to automatically switch modes at midnight. Ask him, I think he knows a lot more about this than he ever wanted to know. :-)
