appear 3g and not H

Good morning, sorry for my english,

I'm using SHV-E300L and I would like ask you how solve this problem, in my phone i can see only 3G and never H or H+.

i'm using official firmware 4.3 MJ7 with root.

another problem than i have is than i cannot hide the "no Video Call" in the status bar.

May you help me please??

Thank you in advance
[Galaxy S 4 General] ekzil:
I had the same problem , lost root access after flashing this prerooted 4.3 , I managed to fix it by flashing clean 4.3 room and then reflash the pre-rooted one and simply install SuperSU from playstore , worked like a charm :)

EDIT : If you don't got clean 4.3 room I can upload it and post it tomorrow.

Changing phone keypad language

Does anyone know how to change the language of the keypad?

For example, an SHV-E330S (and likely all other Korean S4 models) show Korean characters on the numeric keypad. Changing the phone's language to English or another language does not seem to change the phone numeric keypad.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S 4 General] badpixel:
Woul be great if you uploaded the clean 4.3. Thx fou the hint.

What are your expiriences with 4.3?

I think the device run smother. I like the new keyboard.

I noticed the browser sometimes lags while scrolling, especialy at the start. There often is a 0.5 second lag and then the whole page jumps. Not realy a problem but anoying.
[Galaxy S 4 General] ekzil:
What I've hoped and it became true it was the battery life , it's much more better than 4.2 , it's and upgrade imo.

EDIT : Here is the clean 4.3 room : DOWNLOAD

Does not work. Both SHV-E300S/K don't recieve LTE signal here in the Philippines after the 4.3 update. We are waiting for the 4.4 update and see if it fixes the modem bug in 4.3.
[Galaxy S 4 General] keieypi:
Yes I have tried that already and it doesnt work. When will be the next update? I hope to have this fixed soon because I have bought the phone for the LTE feature + octacore processor. If I have known that there would be a problem with the modem I should not have updated to 4.3 :(
[Galaxy S 4 General] GalaxyNexusPH:
Same here. My phone was working from the MDK kernel upto MH3. About 4-5 updates but when I updated to 4.3 I lost LTE. I tried to downgrade to 4.2.2 and bricked the phone. I don't think a downgrade is possible. Now I'm stuck at 4.3 without LTE. I read somewhere that Samsung announced that 4.4 KitKat will be out on January.

Don't you have a backup using CWM? That's the whole purpose of CWM. If the update ****edup your device, just restore the backup usong cwm. That also goes to efs backup to restore imei in case a modem update issue occured. Always backup first before updating.

I am experiencing battery drain on my E300L running 4.3 rooted MJC firmware which was posted earlier in this thread. There are no wakelocks watsoever. thr battery is draining much quickly than 4.2.2. Shouldnt the firmware upgrade bring battery improvement? Anyone else facing such issue.

I have also calibrated my battery but no improvements.

4.3 for e300l sucks when rooting, most of my previous apps and backup keeps crashing and security keeps screwing up rooted apps. Went back 4.2.2 which was stable. If anyone has a modified 4.3 rom which is stable please let me know. :cool:

How did you revert back to 4.2.2. I think the new bootloader doesn't allow flashing old 4.2.2 based firmware.

e330S LTE-A and EXMOR RS

we all know that i9500 and i9505 doesn't use the same type of camera sensor. sony's exmor r and rs. and off course the octa 19500 takes better and detailed pictures than i9505.

now, i have been searching all over google if the e330 with snapdragon 800 uses exmor R or RS.

can anyone in this thread help us out? because i guess, no one knows so far? can we see the sensor used by checking the kernel or the build prop?

When that happens to any of my apps I usually clear data and force stop the app. Then I do a reboot. That usually solves problems of apps force closing.

Help in choosing S, K, L version

Hi all.

I just purchased GALAXY S4 BLACK MIST LTE 8 OCTA CORE EXYNOS 5 E300 32GB from Korea.

They are asking what version. Options are "S, K, L"

What one is working best and more easily rooted? I currently live in Greece.

I have no idea what the differences are on "S, K, L " .

Can you please help me before I do a BIG mistake?

Thank you in advance.

Ok. I have done a lot of researching and flashing when it comes to the different modems on 4.3. They will not wirk and will cause you to lose all network coverage and also your imei.

Yeah, so did I while testing things for everyone. LOL .. luckily there is a Samsung repair shop right down the road from my house and they fixed it under warranty. LOL. They tried doing an EFS restore, but it didn't work. What they had to do was actually go into the phone and replace the main board because not even they could read the eeprom. It sucked waiting for it to. Thought they were going to see where I had been flashing it and all, but they didn't. :)

[Galaxy S 4 General] lunerceli:
The problem is that updating through kies is supposed to restore and fix your efs folder, but it doesn't when you try to flash other modems besides 4.3 modems. When this happens it is a fail safe by samsung to wipe your imei so that you will have to take it to them for repair. Trust me, I tried everything when it happened to me and nothing worked. Even restoring my old efs folder didn't work. Like I said previously, they had to replace my eeprom to get my imei back because the fail safe blew a e-fuse.

SHV-E300S shows yellow triangle and PC during boot

Hello all,

Newbie post. Though not newbie here. As I've lurked before, and have successfully rooted an old HTC Desire (Bravo) based on information from the forums. I recently upgraded to an SKT Galaxy S4 (SHV-E300S). Before I attempted rooting it I vaguely remember that it was still 4.2.2 and probably MH3.

Honestly I assumed that rooting it was straightforward as the HTC. Then I hit KNOX. I was trying to flash a recovery image. Odin fired up OK but showed a FAILED. And the phone showed "knox images only" while in Download mode. I only knew of Knox after this. I pulled the battery, slapped in back in and powered on the S4. All I got a simple image. A phone, a yellow triangle and a PC. The text is in Hangul (Korean) so I can't understand it, except for "Kies" in the text.

I can still go in Download mode (haven't check if I can go to recovery, forgot) and I've tried downloading the stock images (I tried the 4.3 images) from samsung-updates but I always get the "knox images only" error in Download mode.

My goal now is to bring the phone back to life. If it means using stock ROM so be it. I'll root it when the process is stable (or if I can find information on how to properly subvert Knox). So here are things to do tonight:

1) Try flashing the old 4.2.2 images. Is it still worth a try?

2) Try flashing via Kies. I hope it doesn't mess up my phone more.

Any other things worth trying?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 General] efrenyaresjr:
Reflash the mh3...

thats the only way right now...
[Galaxy S 4 General] GalaxyNexusPH:
You cannot downgrade back to 4.2.2. There was no KNOX back then so when you see KNOX you probably have 4.3 installed via OTA update. I did the same before and got bricked.

New 4.3 update for the SHV-E300K just came in today. Baseband E300KKKUANA2 still doesn't have LTE on Globe Telecom.

[Galaxy S 4 General] lunerceli:
Ok .. as far as Kingoapp is concerned, it will not work on our phones. They are working to add them to their line up, but right now their devs are having a hard time making it past a few things that Samsung put into the firmware. Yes our firmware is completely different than our I9500 partners. The reason why is because it is a Korean phone and they have rules over here on how things can be done when it comes to phones or media devices. So as of right now, you can either wait until Kingo gets our phones added or you can trip your Knox counter and worry about the rest later. Heck, we can't even get a custom rom for our phone because of the way Sammy programs them. It really sucks. I have tried and tried and tried till my mind was completely fried. And yes I do compile from source for ROMs.

Will SHV-E300K work on U.S. Tmo?

Hi everyone,

My friend from south Korea is selling me his SHV-E300K here in the U.S. and I am currently on T-mobile here in the U.S. I was wondering if this phone is compatible with the Tmo frequencies. Hopefully LTE will work but I don't mind resorting to HSPA+ until I buy a note 4 (this fall)

Thanks for any reply in advance! :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] GalaxyNexusPH:
SHV-E300K doesn't have Band 4 so I guess it won't work on T-Mobile. It does have Band 1,3, and 8.

---------- Post added at 08:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 AM ----------

I'm not sure if LTE works for you but it has to be activated with the KT Hidden menu. In your phone dialer dial 319712358 then password is 774632. Then you go to Network Settings > Network Mode > LTE ALL.

LTE no longer works where I'm from after the 4.3 patch.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Untitled795:
Well it is unlocked if that helps? Is there no way i could get it to work? My friend says it works on AT&T so why not Tmo?
[Galaxy S 4 General] GalaxyNexusPH:
Because Tmobile only has band 4 AWS. I'm not sure if this updated but I guess it's pretty accurate

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks

I guess you will have no problem for 3G connections but you won't be able to connect to LTE.
[Galaxy S 4 General] lunerceli:
I know before I cane back to korea my wife had tmobile in the states and I used 4g on my 300k with no issues, but that was also bfore the 4.3 patch though.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Untitled795:
You're kidding? this is awesome news. I don't see how an update would affect bands negatively. Is this HSPA+ "4G+ or LTE? You sir have mademy day. Getting it after tomorrow.
[Galaxy S 4 General] GalaxyNexusPH:
Anyone knows why LTE isn't working in SHV-E300K outside Korea? I know that they changed basebands using the 1800mhz to upgrade to LTE Advanced. They are using 1800mhz for both SHV-E300 LTE and SHV-E330 LTE-A.
