ßRÏÇK£Ð PRL gettin you down??

Tired of looking a an expensive wi-fi enabled frisbee?

*/

First things first, I bricked my own phone, period. I was messing around with my APN settings while running the amazing wip illusion rom.

I Nandroided back to my Twiz 4.1.2 stock MC2. A simple process that we all (should) do regularly.

Upon completion of the operation I didn't have service, like a complete & total LOS (loss of service).

Flashing a modem, stock rom, or anything via Odin3

did not help

My PRL was 1 and other information was not there or inaccurate within system status.

I flashed the MC2 stock count reset, & used digiblur's PRL write, the PRLWUnhide_MA7.zip worked to unlock my MC2 settings,

I then used Qbking77's prl force roam method, & still nothing but wi-fi.

That's when I called sprint to send reprovision commands & to ask for the Twiz code for manual reset.

He said reset via recovery was my best bet but we all know how well that worked.

I feared going to sprint store was in my future, but re-rooted, installed recovery & did the PRLWUnhide again,

& just for the hell of it punched in ##786# the same digits previous Sprint phones use for resetting,

[COLOR="Red"]getprop ril.MSL[/COLOR]

[in to any termal for MSL]

& bada-bing; TWRP [from goo-manager] accepted the ASOP command to reboot into recovery & reprovision it's self.

After it rewrote the prl it refromated again, once booted it activates.

You can now Nandroid back to whatever inferior rom you were using with LTE/EVDO/CDMA working as good as factory new.

I hope I helped!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] N3Ph1L1M:
also try

I had the same problem from messing with the setting in the same ROM, also did the MC2 full restore, but I did the hands free activation ##72786# and that did it for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] pchong571:
Hands free activation didn't work for me, but if your ROM has it "Activate this device" in "Settings" did it for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] N3Ph1L1M:
thought so

I thought it worked... And maybe it did but now it seems like I'm going into roaming a lot more often then I normally would of. I've tried just about everything so maybe I'm just crazy but it seems like my 3g and 4g aren't working right.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Agent Soap:
I would update profile & modem if issues continue. I would imagine that an outage in your area could also be a factor, but IDK if thats the case.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] N3Ph1L1M:
I looked into it and it appears that there have been issues detecting 4G after switching to cdma only or global. Not 100% on everything but it sounds like because or phones are capable of global use on a cdma only network but also used here simultaneously in conjunction with our LTE, but for some reason when you switch from Lte/cdma/evdo to global or cdma only and then try and go back to using LTE, there is a problem with being able to connect to LTE.

I can say that this is what happened to me after I did the hands free I was still having a hard time with getting everything back to normal and it kept showing roaming and the x1 signal which I never got before. Plus after pulling up one of the ## menys I wad able to check my LTE status which showed it was disconnected even though in my main menu I had LTE/CDMA/EVDO selected like normal. Eventually through some playing around I was able to get the LTE reconnected and everything back to normal.

But I'd deff warn against playing around with the signal type settings for anybody like myself who are still learning as you go and not 100% on what can effect what and when it effects that.

I did however learn quite a bit a long the way on PRL'S and radios and the different signal types. So besides a lot of frustration BP harm no foul.

I broke my XDA 2s screen too, and had to get a replacement here in India, which cost me about US $ 175. I've never broken a screen before, but I guess the size and weight of a 2s is such that it could drop out.... mine took a toss and flew down half a flight of stairs! However, I'm happy to report that with the replaced screen, its working fine!

You can't flash that without s-off. I suggest you grab one of the stock roms for ge and flash it. Then flash the recovery from the thread mentioned above then lock the bootloader with fastboot oem lock
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdandashly:
Only problem is the "Tampered" note when booting up. I figured a RUU would get rid of that. Are S-OFF instructions the same for all versions of the HTC One?

You can't get s-off on that bootloader as far as I know

TESTED AND WORKING!

My phone previously was running TWRP with a custom ROM and kernel on MDL baseband. I wanted to switch ROM's anyway and didn't care about retaining information, so I was looking for the simplest thing to do without reverting to stock. Do the steps below and you can go from an MDL rom to an MF9 rom as well as MF9 kernel and modem in a matter of minutes.

1) Upload TriForceROM to your SD card. You can technically use any MF9 compatible ROM, but this is the one I used.

2) Boot in to TWRP and do a full wipe, then install TriForceROM. When the install is done reboot the phone into the ROM. Note: First time it loads it may take a minute, don't panic. And yes, an MF9 rom will boot to MDL firmware.

3) When Android comes up do NOT do anything in the OS. Some features will NOT work. Simply shut the phone down immediately. You must turn the phone all the way off! Then turn phone back on and boot into Download Mode by holding VOL UP + POWER. Press VOL UP to get it ready to receive data. Plug your phone into the computer (if not already) and open Odin 3.07. Note: You can NOT reboot from the OS into download mode, you must shutdown completely and then go in to download mode. Don't ask me why.

4) Proceed to flash the MF9 modem and other firmware updates as instructed in noobnl's post. You must follow the step to flash the bootloader as well.. it takes like 2 seconds to fix, don't forget it!

5) When Odin flash is done, reboot phone and let it load into TriForceROM and voila... everything is MF9 now.

When TriForce opens for the first time Android will say "finalizing update" and may reboot one more time (it did for me)... once you come back to the ROM you can look under About Phone and it will say MF9. If it says MDL still then the Odin flash did not work properly.

Easiest firmware upgrade ever.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Fuzzy Wuzzy:
Damn, I'm currently updating to MF9 AFTER flashing to stock. If I had only read this post! Thanks!

BTW: It's power + home + volume down, not volume up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Inline:
This is a good guide if you do want to update the modem and etc to the latest but for anyone who is lazy, you still can just flash an MF9 rom, like TriForce over MDL or even MDC (which I'm still on) and everything works fine.

My nandroid is to a freshly rooted MDC stock rom and I just flash any MDL/MF9 rom over that and I'm fine. Though it is customary to update the modem and etc to the current version of whatever your on - you don't need to. I never once updated my GS3 from what it came with and just flashed whatever rom that was based on the latest.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Cytality:
Well you're right and wrong. Sure it works, but think about it like this... if you put diesel in your regular gasoline engine, it might turn over and run for a bit, but eventually you'll blow the engine.

MF9 roms may try to access MF9 firmware features. So without the latest firmware installed with the mod, the ROM may crash if you attempt to do anything firmware specific.

I recommend everyone be on the latest firmware. If you were on MF9 firmware and and wanted to run MDL ROM's then that would be ok, but I don't recommend doing it how you're doing it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Willie68wr:
Will this get me apps to sd?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] devoureddreams:
And actually you don't have to use home button just vol down and power
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] kinextions:
Any one getting random reboots with this update? And.... how do I solve this problem?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jonnoh:
It appears to be kernel related. Either adjust the KT kernel (not sure the particulars) or use another kernel like Agats 3.3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Cytality:
I had one random reboot one time. And it seemed to be related to using Viper4Android.

Other than that it was working fine for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Willie68wr:
Worked perfectly as u said but I wanted to ask if I flash an mdl rom do u know if I lose the mf9 features like apps to sd? And i also want to say thanks for your excellent work :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] kinextions:
Sorry but where do I find agats kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dawishmaker:
Can anyone tell me why when I go to Settings > More > and under System Manager the icon next to "about device" is yellow...:confused:

When I click on it everything is grayed out except Status, Legal information and Device Name... Baseband and Software version both say MF9 but could anyone tell me why the icon is Yellow?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] beerindex:
Please forgive the very stupid question, but does this mean that any Rom listed as MF9 can be used following the exact steps you laid out, with the only difference being which zip I download?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Alpine-:
As I understand it yes. You can use any rom. The .tar with the modem/firmware updates is generic and brings the phone to Sprint's MF9 level firmware but should work with ANY MF9 Rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] TheGoodFellas:
Will it be possible to downgrade back to MDC after upgrading to MF9 with this method?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ROMANTiC KiD:
Yes you can you just need to odin back to mdc stock.

Sent from my SPH-L720
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Shoulon:
BTW its power + volume down. You don't need the home button. ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] beerindex:
My build number is now an MF9, but my Baseband version is MDL. Does that mean it did not work?

Fixed it myself. Can't seem to delete the post.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Burtonrider:
I've been on TriForce 3.1 for the last few days, can I still go ahead and reflash the MF9 firmware? I really would rather not have to reflash the ROM and change all my damn settings and apps again.

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Burtonrider:
Bump? Having a lot of crashes and reboots that I'd like to work on fixing. I have yet to find an answer if it's OK to try a different kernel w/o going to MF9 first.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Altiealt:
MDC help

Is there a way to go to full mf9 firmware, modem, kernel, without loosing root, or using a computer ? My charging port is broken.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] frostedunit:
Unfortunately, no. You need Odin to load the modem.

hello

I am coming from N7100 to N7105

as I can see , there is no as much as N7100 roms and kernel to choice .

which kernel do you recomend for cm/aokp roms and why ?

I will be apriciated .
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MxFadzil92:
yeah me too searching for one other than thor.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EagleOne984:
There are a few kernel made for our n7105. For example there is the NEAK kernel that you can find on the development section of the forum.

Other than that I believe there is even the note2core and another that I cannot remember right know, you can find everything in the forum with a simple search.

Hope to have been helpful :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sstphoenix:
I walked into the ocean (salt) water with my phone about 4 days ago.

I know, I know. Believe me, I've called myself many names along the line of stupid already.

I've been searching the net for any tips or ideas on what I should do.

Situation:

It was submerged in water for about 10 seconds.

Then removed, removed battery and left it to dry in the summer heat. (I was at a beach far away with no rice or silicon nearby).

24 hrs later I inserted my wife's S4 battery into the device and the light indicator began lighting up several colors unsteadily. Mostly Red.

I removed the battery without attempting to turn on the phone, since this was not normal behavior.

2 days later, once I had access to a bag of rice, I put the phone in rice and have left it there since. I tried this morning (after 24 hrs in rice) and the indicator light turns on still, a steady red light.

I'm thinking the phone wont magically work again. But perhaps it might still be worth having a cell phone repair guy have a try.

Anyone know what the red light indicator light means?

Im thinking the phone's main components that would be possibly permanently damaged are:

- screen

- memory

- cpu

- motherboard

Any advice on the matter would be appreciated.

Im crossing my fingers I dont have to spend 600$ for a new phone.

You what i did on my wet Infuse... After some 2-3 day later i use hair dryer for some 10-15 min and my phone worked again. I sold it as is two days later but person who i sold said phone is working ok.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] k3rn3lkill3r:
Not a lot can be done for it unless you were exceptionally lucky. Energized circuits don't take kindly to water dispersing their energy into every other circuit in the phone. Often even after placing a phone in rice or silica immediately afterwards still results in a crappy phone eventually. Like the fella said, use that insurance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sstphoenix:
When you guys mention "use your insurance" do you mean home insurance?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Solange82200:
Use whatever insurance you have. Most people I've talked to on here got something through square trade or best buy, maybe you used a credit card that gives you a warranty for 90 days, maybe you can use home insurance. It depends on your policy. I personally always buy insurance on a new phone (used to get the crappy att insurance, now I have the square trade one with only 100 dollar deductible, but no loss or theft included). It's up to you whether it's worth it, if you can afford to part with 600 bucks in the event of an emergency, may not be worth it to you to pay extra for insurance.

youtube tutorial

I have successfully repaired water damage on my handset. When I took apart my S2 last year I followed a YouTube tutorial to get it all apart and back together. Here is an excellent link for your S4:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zm4f2XjQLAM

I expect you will find lots of white powder type of deposits. All I did was carry all the little pieces and circuit boards to the sink and used a toothbrush under the running tap water and scrubbed it all clean. Then I submerged all the pieces and parts in rice over night. It started working again when I put it all back together the next day.

Okay so I kind of put myself in a messed up situation:

I installed Clockworkmod Recovery and ROM Manager so I could install the unofficial CM7 port, I tried to install the update.zip but it failed part way through due to "Error 7" So I tried to wipe my /system, and /cache & Dalvik Cache and battery stats. After that it still didn't work so I tried to do that sd-ext thing in the mounting section of clockworkmod (Or in the advanced section) it ruined my SD card, I could not format it on my PC. I tried this again with another card, that one is now ruined too. So basically now i'm stuck with a phone that will not boot past the boot logo, no cards to reinstall the stock firmware. And I DO NOT HAVE A USB CABLE TO MOUNT EITHER. Which wouldn't work anyway because my cards are ruined. Please help this my only device!!!!

Update:

I got the stock firmware and reinstalled it, so now I'm gonna start fresh and root it again and everything. If anyone can provide help with installing custom ROM's and/or tell me what I did wrong it would be much appreciated.

Version: Froyo 2.2

Phone: Huawei M835

Carrier: MetroPCS

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
It is not a problem. In Gingerbread, it was the usual, first slide, then the security option. Starting from Ice Cream Sandwich and all firmwares after it, the slide screen does not occur if any other method of security is being used. So, if you use pattern or PIN or password option, slide screen does not occur. Just to save time.

I got an extra battery by getting an insurance replacement. They sent me a full retail kit. I keep the extra battery in my wallet.
[LG Optimus G Pro] limitbreak09:
So heres my verdict regarding the slim zerolemon battery

It is good as the oem battery aswell!

I got 4.3 hours of screen with 15 % left with the battery using from 9 am to 7 pm!

I was on 4G LTE like almost all the time coz we have no wifi here where im taking my vacation. I constantly like every 10 mins checking FB, amazon, ebay, flipboard, AC forum, xda forum, bleacher reports app, espn app, some gps, internet, call and messaging and just couple of minutes of gaming. And my default brightness is also 40%!!

So ill give it a solid 10/10 score!

Then for the Onite slim battery

I think its around 8-10% less capacity than the oem and zerolemon battery, but its aight for $10

I'll give it a 7.5 rating

* Dont get the hyperion one, it sucks. Or maybe I just got a defective one but i dnt think so.

Its adviseable to stick with Zerolemon
