Are you unlocked with a custom recovery? If so just download the other 2 radios//basebands/modems and flash them and see if either helps.

Also you could go to Settings/More/Mobile Networks and change it from Global to LTE/CDMA/EvDO.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] plainbum:
Thanks!

Changing from it from Global to LTE/CDMA/EvDO helped, still not up to Tbolt speeds, but the annoying Text failing is gone!

What I did to my phone is called "root/unlock" I used this guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2272066

I am not sure if have a custom recovery or not with that.

On my thunderbolt I used one called 4EXT Recovery Control and I loved it. I'm curious if I could/should used that on my Note2.

I assumed I am running the latest radios since I had the latest verizon OTA update.

Arent the latest official radios the best way to go??

Thanks again for your help!

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mamica:
hello guys.I'm going to buy the galaxy s4 i9500 from eBay>>(here)http://www.ebay.it/itm/Samsung-Gala...0921143337?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item2ec7d55829

so i want from you guys some feedback about the seller,phone,shipping.... if you have bought your galaxy s4 from here.It will be very helpfull for me.Thanx in advance
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frrlod:
Phone is great, but it might be a little hard for you to find people who bought from that specific seller HERE.

1.What I suggest: go to the seller's sales list and look for people who bought samsung galaxy s4. Send messages and ask them if it's perfectly fine. If you want to make sure send out 15-20 messages (could do it in 15 mins, copy paste a message).

2. Seller seems pretty trustworthy with a high rating, and price isn't too low to be real.

3. I don't know the language so I couldn't check but look for the bad feedbacks and check why people gave them (if someone said the machine they got is bad, dont buy it from him. but if someone says the phone was 3-4 days late it might not be bad for you)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mamica:
only 3 or 4 people said that the phone was bad

another question:can someone who has bought from ebay give me an opinion about this seller?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MifuneT:
I have purchased an i9505 from that exact seller a few weeks ago. The phone shipped quickly and was at my door in several days (US based seller, ships out of US) and in seemingly unopened retail packaging. Your mileage may vary, as you are an international buyer. You may be responsible for duty and taxes.

Received:

GT-I9505

Baseband Version: I9505ZHUAME3

Build Number: JDQ39

This is a Hong Kong market phone and it will be set to Chinese Language by default. When I turned on the phone I was able to guess my way into changing the language by changing to the second option on the two option prompt. Phone is currently rooted, no problems.

The phone you linked is GT-I9505 (Snapdragon), not GT-I9500 (Exynos). Most likely if you order I9500 from this seller, you will receive a Hong Kong market I9500. This is a trustworthy seller, just note that you're getting a Hong Kong market phone. If you order the I9505 instead of I9500, I have noticed (as have others on XDA) that the performance of the I9505 camera is subpar compared with the I9500.

I bought my qtek last week and trying ever since to get it connected with my carkit..

Sometimes this works and I can hear and talk through my carkit. Other times it only rings through my carkit and when i pick it up it disconnectw with the carkit and goes back to the qtek. Or it doesn't connect at all.

I've tried several things..

-first I wanted to try the new bluetooth patches.. this works a little better for example without switching on the qtek and turning the key, they automatically connect. Not all times but ik works a little better.

-trying to put a new ROM version on my qtek, got a country id error.. Got rid of it using the xda3nfbtool.. then got a radio image file checksum error.. Don't know how to bypass this because it has to do with the passwords in the xda3nfbtool.exe..

So now I'm here, hoping that some wizzkids know how to get a permanently good bt connection...

Who dares??? Or has suggestions??

Thanks in advance,

Sorry my english isn't my main language

BMW BT with Blue Angel

Same problem here. Have tried all available patches. the 3500 BT version works with the least amount of trouble. But even with this one I never know how long it will take to get it working and wether I will hit a tree in the meantime.

A Friend of mine uses the Motorola Carkit with no problem. I think the BMW System is too complicated with i5s address-book synch to work. By the way, how many adresses do you havein your qtek?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Tafkaj:
Hi,

I do have at least a very similar problerm with my Audi BT. I can connect, it works just fine when I make a call, BUT it looses connection after picking up an incoming call...

I tried all stacks I could get my hands on from 1900 thru 2400 till 3500 and even 6600...

Anyone with an idea!?

TIA

PEACE AND B WILD!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dennis123:
Re: BMW BT with Blue Angel

Don't know how many adresses, about 150... But at this time I have none in the PDA, just to test if the BT connection will work... But it has to do with the connection and not the adress book... I just found out that different models of BMW could have different model of BT carkits. And BMW uses a siemens carkit according to a mechanic from BMW.

I hope someone has the brains to pull this of.. Because how is it possible to get a only sometimes connection. This means that it could work, or is that just my postive attitude.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jofeuerstein:
Blue Angel and BMW Bluetooth Blues

at Denis123: thanks. I have 4000 adresses on the PDA and thought the problems come because the BMW tries to download them ... if you have the same problems with 150 adresses, then the adresses are not the cause. At the moment with the BT 3500 (+ this small fix on the download section) the paring works and connecting the MDA when I get into the car works mostly. What drives me nuts is that it doesn't work ALWAYS. Sometimes i have to tinker for 15 Minutes while driving until it works. But once the connection worked, it functions very reliably ... until the next time I get into the car.

So the best I can recommend: Latest ROM version plus BT 3500 + this funky extra fix which I don't know what it's good for.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dennis123:
Re: Blue Angel and BMW Bluetooth Blues

Can you tell which type of BMW you drive?? And if it's not to much trouble then mention the ROM, Radio version etc you have on your PDA... That is what I (and maybe others) would like to know.

Thanks in advance..

You say that sometimes it takes up to 15 min to get a connection! Maybe this could be due to the phonebook.. I don't no for certain, but if you're BMW tries to take over the adress book of your PDA that could take a while with 4000 entries.. What you could try is, if you're synchronising with your computer leave out the adresses in active sync. So that there are no adresses in your PDA. Then try to pair with the BMW and see what it does... Maybe then it works faster... I'm curious if you get a good connection between the PDA and the Beemer.... Please let me know.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dennis123:
Have just installed:

ROM version 1.22.00. WWE

Radio version 1.06.02

ExtROM version 1.22.557 WWE

Tried it AGAIN in my BMW...

First time connection --> connection failed, BT BMW says erfolgreich (succeeded)

Switch contact on/off --> everything works I can phone, and incoming calls also work.. That's how it's suppose to be

Switch contact on/off --> There is a pairing, but as soon as I get an incoming call the phone goes off in the car, but when I answer afther a few seconds the connection is gone.

Switch bluetooth on/off on PDA --> It works again??!!?!

So a early conclusion is that the bluetooth has to be totally switched off when the PDA is off.. If phone rings PDA switches on and connects to carkit.. Does anbody know if this is possible, then I will try it out???

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dennis123:
I think I have found a solution. I'm not sure but so far this works..

Now I need someone to help with the following...

The bluetooth on the PDA must be switched of when you turn the ignition.

Then when you have your car running you switch on the bleutooth on the PDA... They pair and connect... I've tried it several times and it works...

Now when you switch of your car and turn it back on again the pairing will work but there is no connection. So in my case the phone rings in the car but when i pick it up it switches back to the PDA..

Conclusion; Only when the PDA is switched on the Bleutooth is allowed to switch on... So when you're being phoned, first the PDA goes on and a few seconds later the carkit is active and you're able to pick up through the steering wheel..

SO THIS IS IMPORTANT..

Is someone capable to make a prog. or to delete something in the original bluetooth prog. in PDA that the bleutooth function isn't always ON, only when you put on your PDA...

I really hope someone can help??!?!?!?!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jofeuerstein:
@tbd: forget the fix. It was an older version that I mistakenly downloaded ->my mistake

@dennis123

In the meantime I use:

Radio-Version 1.06.02

Protokoll Version 1337.38

ExtROM 1.22.182

Bluetooth 1.0.0.3500

Yesterday morning I went to my car with BT OFF, turned the car on, turned BT on and it worked flawlessly.

Yesterday evening I went to the car with BT ON, turned the car on, and the BT paired, but during the first call it dropped the connection.

Same today. => I have at least one reproducable way to get the darn thing working. I can't say that satisfies me, but i will stop wasting time with this ;-)

Has anyone tried this with BT 3900 ?

PS: Somebody asked what kind of BMW: The car is an X5 build in 9/04, with the Bluetooth interface and without navigation.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] str8addicted:
how would i manually go about changing the LCD density on a rooted S4?

edit:

**This post is mostly for Noobs** Thought I would post as it is very useful to know.

Here is how to change the lcd density on the charge manually.

**YOU MUST BE ROOTED**

1. Using root explorer go to

System>build.Prop

2. Make sure read/write capabilities are set and long press on build.Prop

3. Choose edit in text editor and the file will open

4. Go halfway down until you see lcd density =240

5. Change the density to a lower number such as 200. This will allow for a much higher resolution.

6. Save and exit

7. Reboot

***warning! If you set the density too low your phone won't run the rom correctly. Not advised under 160

This might be a bit of a tricky question...

I have this thing:

http://www.amazon.com/EasyAcc-12000...e=UTF8&qid=1371758929&sr=8-1&keywords=easyacc

And I would like to connect my 2.5" hdd to my Nexus 10. But even if I'll be able to connect it, I'm fairly certain it'll drain the battery veeery fast. Could I power either the hdd with a cable like this

http://www.amazon.com/OEM-UTStarcom...?ie=UTF8&qid=1371759016&sr=8-3&keywords=usb+y

or charge the nexus 10 while using the hdd if I connect both the external battery and the hdd to a usb hub like this http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-...e=UTF8&qid=1371759098&sr=8-1&keywords=usb+hub and then obviously connecting the usb hub to the Nexus...

? I don't want to use an externally powered usb hub because I won't have access to a power outlet all the time.

Has anyone ever tried this? Can I ruin my device by playing around with plugging different things at once into it's usb port or is that safe?

Device is rooted if that matters.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
Hey guys.

Recently my beloved nexus' radios decided to quit working. I've tried everything to get them back but the harsh reality is that they just don't work anymore. I made a thread in the Q&A section to no avail.

Decided to go with the GS4 so I have an unused somewhat defective, and clearly used phone that is just sitting on my desk. When I went from my incredible to the gnex, I gave my incredible to one of the awesome devs that made that phone so much better. I'm thinking of doing it again because you guys are so great.

So if you are a dev, contact me and I'll so my best to give it to someone who can truly use it. Whether it be for parts or as a test flashing device, etc.

I can ship the phone free of charge through amazon since I work there so there really is no hassle involved.

Just to be clear, the radios (as far as I can tell) don't work, the charging port is a bit loose and sometimes hard to charge, and there are a few scratches on the screen and around the bezel. Other than that everything works. So perfect for a test device for your future roms.

I really want someone to USE the device and not just turn around and sell it, although I would be none the wiser. So let me know if you NEED it.

Thank you to this community (most of you ;)) and to all the hard working developers that got me thru the last few years. It's been fun.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
I also have an extended battery that I can give to someone as well.

And this is a Verizon model, if that matters.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beauenheim:
Well I have one already.

Although, it's the sprint variant.

You see, I don't make that much money, and I got this for christmas, sure it's great, but since it's limited to CDMA, I cannot be flexible with it at all.

It really does suck, I've been wanting to sell it and replace it with a GSM Galaxy Nexus, but no one will buy it, everyone already moved on to wanting the galaxy S4 or something similar.

So I definitely don't NEED it, but it would save me some money with me being able to change to Straight talk.

About the broken radios, I can try and repair it, buy a new charging port, buy a new antenna, etc etc, it'd be a fun project. I've already started some development for myself for the toroplus, and the GSM Galaxy nexus would allow me to fully mess with a semi working Ubuntu Touch OS.

And, if it wasn't given to me, which it probably won't, I actually have a cheap 12 dollar otterbox like case for the GSM Galaxy Nexus, I messed up on the order and got that instead of one for my model.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xetium:
Well im not going to just jump in and say give it to me haha.

I'll just explain why I need it :)

Well first of all, I've just finished up installing Ubuntu 12.04.2 on my Spare Desktop and I've been wanting to develop a ROM for myself for such a long time, but I've never had the time to because of school. Now that its summer, I'd love to finally sit down and develop one. I already made a ROM for the Nexus S 4.1.2, if you check that Dev forum. Lots of good responses form the users, but ever since I sold it and got the Galaxy Nexus, I couldn't continue developing for the phone.

The reason why I'd love your spare Galaxy Nexus, is because I'd be able to test out the ROM im hoping to build. I hate having to format my current daily Nexus and flash a new ROM every two seconds. It takes a while to download everything and resetup everything they way I want to.

I live in Canada so Shipping wont be that much, but all in all, everythings up to you :)

Let me know your decision please,

All the Bets,

Xetium
