[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scott14719:
I've seen a lot of people talking about changing bands but I have yet to see one person explain how they have changed bands on an AT&T S4. So, would you mind explaining the process for those that might want to try it. I'm not going to use T-Mobile any time soon, but I know a lot of people would be grateful if you would share. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] noizy1234:
Yeah ill be using t mobile I would greatly appreciate it if you explained how to do this
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Shammyh:
Go into service mode, and however you want to do it, get to the root service mode menu.

From there, follow these menu items...

From Root ServiceMode Menu:

- [1] Debug Screen

- [6] Phone Control

- [6] Network Lock

- [4] RAT_FREE_SUPPORITNG ON

~ left softkey menu key

~ back

~ left softkey menu key

~ back

- [7] Network Control

- [2] Band Selection

Unfortunately, this doesn't provide quite the granular control you were maybe expecting... So far, I haven't found a way to precisely set what exact combination of WCDMA/GSM bands you want to use, but this does allow the phone to use all the various bands it actually physically contains.

As far as LTE, there's an even simpler method:

Starting at the root ServiceMode screen:

- [3] LTE

- [2] LTE RF

- [4] LTE BC_CONFIG

From there you can "select" or "unselect" and given combination of specific LTE bands.

As with anything in the service menu, you may brick your device or cause other irreparable damage by selecting the wrong item.

Oh, and these are the only two ways to change bands AFAIK. I'd be grateful if someone can correct me, as it would be nice to be able to select the precise bands for both the GSM/UMTS side and the LTE side of the phone.

Don't have S4 myself, but anyone has tried this guide/method and succesfully get T-mobile/Wind/etc HSPA/LTE from AT&T/Rogers/etc S4?

Yes ive gotten h+. No lte here to test though

Just tried it and it worked perfectly fine, only thing is after the unlock My phone lagged for about 10minutes, but after 3 reboots, it sorted itself out.

thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] pterry30:
It worked for my Telus galaxy S 4, it sim unlocked with no issues
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jokkir:
So does this allow to use the T-Mobile/Wind Mobile bands? The 700/1700 bands specifically to be used with AWS
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] batanuenio:
I was able to unlock my phone! GREAT! but for some reason i cant use my data.... I can make phone calls fine
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Shammyh:
The video tutorial just unlocks the ability to use any SIM card. To use tmobile's network, you'll need to enable the specific bands. I did a mini write up of that process in my post a bit further up the thread. A trip to Wikipedia or elsewhere on Xda will help you make sure you're using the proper bands for your area.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sonny21:
Great to hear. It doesn't effect your AT&T HSPA/LTE does it? What I mean by that, if you want to go back to using your AT&T hspa/lte, do you need to go into menu and change the band back to support at&t and etc?

Anyone else has tried it and has been successful with it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bhp090808:
No problem switching back to att bands

Sent from my Nokia 5120. Rocking it oldschool
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sonny21:
So you have to manually switch back if you want to go back to using att bands, ok. I don't have s4 but I tried something similar with my note 2, but I only get gsm or lte bands, didn't see 3g/umts.

What options does it give you under the band selection?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] godeyes:
How do I know if the phone is unlocked without another sim card? The command '*#7465625#' does not work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sonny21:
I am pretty sure you need another carrier sim to test to see if unlocked.

You can follow this guide to unlock, see if it works: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=41580940&postcount=18
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] harryrosen:
I was looking at the settings, Mine was set to automatic. Should I change it to get say T-Mobile or Wind?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] fqzero:
for wind i would think we have to select 1700 in utms band . for some reason when i select that , the star doest come beside it. anyone know the reason? if you select any other bands it selects it and star comes beside it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] fastkod:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rka919:
Did not work

Doesn't work for my AT&T phone...

Also just to mention.. it is not yet activated to AT&T network with valid sim.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ToniCipriani:
Tried this on a Fido i337, the entire process went through but when I put a Bell LTE card in it, it asks for the unlock code again?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] humzat:
help i followed these instructions directly! and im getting a no sim card detected error now!! disaster..cant use the phone at all..what can i do...i tried restoring in odin but same issue even after a restore...help......
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scott14719:
I would say you are screwed. This is a dangerous method and there are plenty of warnings posted in the "Unlock for free" thread, but people aren't listening. Maybe you can try changing the SHA256off back to SHA256On to see if it will help, if not, maybe you can exchange it. It all depends on if Samsung takes it back or not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] parmar.saab:
No go on AT&T i337...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] russiandivxclub:
Just tried every possible combination out there for my i337 with DL baseband, nothing works I can't access service menu. The thing is I am not even more interested of getting phone unlocked (btw any good sellers on ebay anyone can recommend for unlock code ?) but from what I understand in that meny I can access bands to make phone be on ATT and T-Mobile 4G network. Because if you insert tmabile sim without changing bands you'll have just EDGE even if your account have high speed service on it. Yet if bands changed you can get H+ and that's like 100x faster than EDGE service, I am not sure about LTE but who knows. Also for other counties how nice would it be if you can just change bands on the fly..anyhow I prefer to use official unlock code to open sim lock yet that menu wouldn't hurt at all. Anyone know how to access it ? Once again I did tried 9090, 0011 and few other long numbers didn't work.

P.S.

If I am mistaking about bands or anything else please correct me.

Thank you !
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Nuggz-HTC:
I tried this procedure like 20 times. Maybe someone can help or I should just order a code.

My Build number is JDQ39.I337UCUAMDL

I believe it's a build that is supported by this method.

All the steps go according to plan. The only difference I notice is that I don't get the little lock when the phone restarts and says samsung.

I am running 4.2.2 . Don't know if that matters.

After phone restarts, I turn it off to enter a foreign sim and it asks for the unlock code.

I can't figure it out, or one of the unlucky few that this procedure does not work.

I am using an At&t sim at start and even tried with foreign sim and no sim.

I am attempting this unlock method outside of the U.S. so don't know if that matters as well.

Any help is appreciated. But I might be unlucky and pay for a code.

Thanks!

Do you need USB debugging enabled? Mine doesn't work properly and it just reboots my phone after I select the first option in the first step.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] DJRepresent:
Hi,

I'm wondering if it's worth flashing my Relay. Basically I would like to make my phone run faster and get better control of the settings in the phone, and maybe block some ads.

Does following the instructions when flashing routinely brick a phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] kilr00y:
true, blocking adds will only work with root but doesn't need a custom ROM. you'll have to search the web for adblockers though as google removed all ad blocking software from the market recently.

about "better control of the settings", it depends on your demands whether you need root or not.

when you stick to the instructions you should be fine.

check md5sums so you don't (try to) flash a corrupt file and keep backups once you have a custom recovery up, keep backups.

if you happen to get stuck with something you can get assistance here.

me, personally, i had CM up on all my previous phones. i just like the "baremetal" android builds better than all the touchwiz/sense crap that came with the phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] DJRepresent:
Hey, thanks for the reply. I also wanted to ask if it could make my phone run faster, or more responsive? Sometimes, I literally select an app, and it's like two seconds before it even responds. Swiping screens can sometimes be just as slow. I don't know if rooting / flashing can help with this.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dreddge:
So, For the first time in my phone career, I have dropped and cracked a phone. I decided to go the route of trying to replace only the glass. There are multiple videos out there, but very few are specific enough for my liking. Let me start by showing what I ordered. It will be here Tue,

So here is the replacement part i ordered.... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A66UH8I/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

And to avoid having to use and cut double sided tape, I went with this...but I'm not convinced that it is what i need. I could use some opinions on this. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BMD8HMM/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Its very limited on description, but i think it is basically precut double sided tape for my project.

So, I am going to remove the rear housing but leave the motherboard in place for this excursion. Using a heat gun and the tool provided with the part, I plan to remove the glass from the digitizer.

My screen is completely shattered, so I feel like that may help me a little bit. I can use tweezers to remove the larger bits instead of having to worry about removing the whole screen and putting too much pressure on the screen.

What do you guys think?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
I think you have a good chance of success. ...if...

The temperature of the gun is correct.

I've changed 2 screens, and I will not do it again.

The trick is heat and being patient in the repair.

You'll get it. ..just don't rush it. ...g

Edit:

Use a vacuum cleaner with a small piece of tubing taped into the hose end to provide suction in getting any glass pieces you can't see while the repair is under way. ...g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] digital4282:
I do this for a living. Be incredibly careful when you do it. I recommend that you pickup a non-contact IR temperature probe, the reason you'll want this is so you don't overheat the LCD and yellow it. Keep the temperature of the glass below 200°F at all times, any higher and you start to run the risk of yellowing the LCD. The adhesive that will remain behind is relatively easy to clean off, just be patient with it and take your time, you can get a clean repair by doing it slowly. As for the adhesive, it's not very easy to not have bubbles, but think of it like installing a screen protector and you should be fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] chemman:
One great tool to have for this (and other hot air work) is a thermal camera. If you can get your hands on one great. Be sure to set the pallete to custom and pick colors that will get your attention when they get too high. Set the thing up on a small tripod or something so you can see your work in it and easily monitor the image. I have one where I work but would think of renting one if I did not have access to one and planned such a temperature sensitive job.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] jwebb1111:
Will the camera ever work well with Cyanogen Mod or is it largely software based in Sense?

i've taken some seriously amazing shots with this camera - better than the photos i was getting with the iphone 5 i had before the One.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] jwebb1111:
a shot i took
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] devinthomas:
Is that shot from a Sense ROM or CM?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] jwebb1111:
stock.

just hoping that i don't lose that quality for CM (which i'd like to have).
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] devinthomas:
My advice is to take a few test shots of things you think are representative of your tastes in mobile photography with your Sense set up,make a backup of your current ROM, flash CM & try to take the same photos with the stock JB camera and compare them side-by-side.

Seems like the only direct and fully satisfying way to find out.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] jwebb1111:
I suppose that's the best option. hoping the JB camera comes through and i can rock this phone with bare android.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] rick98761:
I'm running cm10 and my wife is running stock. Sadly pictures come out why better on hers. Pictures seem to blur a lot on CM10. I'm considering going back to stock honestly.

Hi, Do ANY roms work with the Canadian Version? Hell they did not even release Jelly Bean if not never.. wish I did not buy this phone anymore..
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
nope. untill they release jellybean with unlockable bootloader, you're stuck on your latest ICS version. sorry.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] waltthizzney:
and im guessing the market is to small for them to even bother releasing an offical jelly bean?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] nemesishaven:
I've asked on LG's facebook and they stated there are currently no plans to update the P880g.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] jphillip:
What really ticks me off is that, now that the P880 has an officially-unlocked bootloader, any work that was done over the past year to unlock it is now dead. Those efforts could have let us put our own custom ROMs on the phone.

I don't care if LG or the Canadian carriers don't want to put JB on the P880g, but at least unlock the bootloader before abandoning it to obsolescence.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] bnsuki:
Agreed. LG doesn't care, abandoned it in the Canadian market, only to focus on their optimus G. Too bad because I like LG's designs. Never getting another LG smartphone.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] jphillip:
I just found some cause for optimism: LGE Canada stated this in a Facebook comment on May 21:

"Jelly Bean will be available for this device. You can stay updated at: http://www.lg.com/ca_en/support-mobile/lg-LGP880G"

A link to the comment (apologies for being mobile): https://m.facebook.com/LGCanada/posts/10151924019794377?_rdr

This is particularly interesting since before now, LG had been stating there were no plans to release any updates. Something seems to have changed their minds.

Since my P880g is a developer version, I can't receive updates either OTA nor through the LG Suite (they don't accept my IMEI). So I have no way to check the availability of any update, other than checking the KDZ scanner sites. If anyone with a P880g gets a software update, please let us know!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] iceroll:
Any update on the Jellybean situation?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] arnookie:
Yes

I ate the full bag of them rolmfao!!!!

Sorry just had to :laugh:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] jphillip:
I emailed LG Canada a while back, asking for any more info:

Here was the response:

What really gets me is that they won't even outright say there will be no update. They're being intentionally vague. And now I have no idea why the earlier Facebook comment stated so clearly that there would be an update... I don't think lying would really be in their best interest.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] arnookie:
Maybe as LG are supposed to be releasing another update with unlocked boot for P880G. ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] abrfan777:
Looking into buying the lapdock 500 just got a few questions..

1. Is it worth buying if i have laptop and a xyboard already?

2. Do i have to have a separate data plan or could i just use it as an upgrade from the xyboard?

3. Still worth buying since it has been out so long? Anything newer coming out in the near future?

I have a droid razr maxx and the droid xyboard 8.2. I primarily bought the xyboard for school to take notes on and basic research while in class instead of lugging around my dell. Lapdock seems to be more of an all in one package. Any suggestions?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Steph4n:
My opinion: I think not worth it.

i don't have a lapdock but at the beginning when i got my rarz i was gonna buy it too.

but the problem is that i have a laptop and a desktop (in your case a tablet) why would u need the lapdock?

in my case it would be so awesome to have and do a lot stuff with it for the first week or month but you're gonna get bored and is not gonna be the same as a laptop, but if you're not using your xyboard then you could try it. but let me remind you that motorola won't launch more new cellphones with lapdock support so you're gonna waste that money, if that's not a problem for you then buy it. but for what i see naa it's not necessary.

PD: Sorry, bad english ^^
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Tom2112:
No, not worth it. The lapdocks do not work properly with the newer Stock ROMs. So don't waste your money. They also do not work with most (if not all) custom ROMs.

Strange Issue this unless I've completely missed something.

On my Galaxy Note 2 I can find a picture or video then press the change player icon and the content will appear on my smart TV (Sony) straight away, no messing around, no fuss.

However on the Galaxy S4 (I9505) I cannot get the same thing to happen, it can't see the TV for some reason, when i press the change player icon I get a message saying "no other nearby devices are connected to the same AP. Connect the device to the network and try again"

I don't understand, my phones and tv etc are all under the same network, the galaxy note 2 works fine but the S4 just won't do it.

Please help
