[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Craptain Krunch:
Cricket is a CDMA Carrier. You need to stick with CDMA ROMs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gilbes4:
Thank you Craptain Krunch, I was aware that Cricket was CDMA. I was doing research and it appears that the base phone is the same between all carriers with the exception of the I9500 it is the software that determines what carrier it belongs to. I was trying to make it into a world phone and have the capability of using it on CDMA and GSM. Part of the reason of the post was to obtain a Cricket rom so I can flash it back to Cricket and at least make it useable on their network again. I was also wondering if I could copy a flashable rom from my wifes S4. Again thank you for any info given. I greatly appreciate the help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Craptain Krunch:
I'll see if I can find you a stock Cricket ROM, then explore which ROMs may work for you.

---------- Post added at 05:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:32 PM ----------

I can only find US Cellular:

Model: SCH-R970

Country: USA

Version: Android 4.2.2

Changelist: N/A

Build date: N/A

Product Code: USC

PDA: R970VXUAMDL

CSC: R970USCAMDL

MODEM: R970VXUAMDL

DOWNLOAD

You CANNOT flash an i9505 modem.

I'm assuming this phone has a SIM slot?

I've also found this:

You can probably flash custom ROMS for US Cellular

To make it a world phone, you need the SIM card slot unlocked

You can only flash CDMA modems
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gilbes4:
Yes Sir, it does have a sim card slot but it does not have the regular commands to unlock the sim slot. I contacted Cricket about having it unlocked and I must say they are not very intelligent lol. After about 5 phone calls and escalation I did end up getting a unlock code but no way to put it in. As per the rom I did try to flash a us cellular one from sammobile. I will try this one and get back to you. I greatly appreciate the help as I have been banging my head against the wall on this for a week. Luckily I still have my SII.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Craptain Krunch:
With CDMA phones you have to enter a service code containing the unlock code to unlock it, or insert a non-approved SIM and the unlock code prompt will pop up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gilbes4:
I have tried a bunch of tricks, when you insert the non approved sim it does not pop up the unlock window. I then tried:

#7465625*638*UNLOCKCODE#

#0111*UNLOCKCODE#

#7465625*638*# Once prompted for code, enter the 8 digit Unlock Code

Are you on TW?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gilbes4:
I apologize I do not understand the acronym "TW". Could you please explain. Thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Craptain Krunch:
Are you running a TouchWiz ROM or AOSP?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gilbes4:
How do I find out. It is an omega rom that is in it right now. As for factory which is what was in it when i tried to unlock it first it was factory cricket. So if i am correct i believe it would have been touchwiz.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Craptain Krunch:
Both of those ROMs are TW, and the codes nor the unapproved SIM brought up the prompt on either ROM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gilbes4:
Correct.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gilbes4:
Hello Craptain Krunch. I tried the two options you gave me. The one from prepaids unleashed did go into the phone and then I did the super su update as the site said but it still stayed on the I9505 so it appears the file was just a kernel.

Flash a stock debloated ROM. You may have to install PhoneUtil.apk for the codes to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gilbes4:
I haven't been able to find a stock Cricket Rom. I can find lots of US Cellular but they don't want to play nice lol. I tried the phoneutil on the GT-I9505 rom wouldn't let it install. If I could get back to stock I will try it. Do you know how to extract a good rom from a working phone? Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Craptain Krunch:
I know how to extract individual partitions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gilbes4:
So I got the phoneutil.apk to run on my wife's phone. It opened the network lock entry window. The code Cricket gave me for her phone did not work but I can work with Cricket on that. Now to figure out how to get a stock version of Cricket software to get mine back to stock. Or download the rom from my wife's phone if anyone knows how to do that out there I would be very greatfull. Thank you very much to Craptain Krunch for all the help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gilbes4:
Ok, so.... I found a stock cricket rom, flashed it and now have my cricket phone back. Woooohooooo. But..... now when I try to connect to wifi it gives me an error "The device has detected an application attempting unpermitted actions and has stopped loading. To protect your device it is recommended you reboot." Rebooted and keeps giving me the error. It for some reason superSU is stilled installed even with new software and a factory reset. Would this cause this error? Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] motiam4:
Have you been able to get it work with Gsm,I do have R970 US Cellular,wondering if I cat get it to work on GSM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Jnewell05:
Do u have custom recovery working ? You could install recovery on your other phone. Make a nandroid backup.zip and or a normal nandroid then install it on your broken one. Or are the nandroids devices specific? As far as the WiFi issue sounds to me like a corrupted file and or wrong software for the device. IDK. worth a shot? That's the route id take. The supersu app would not cause the issues. Its installed as a system app with the rom u flashed that's why it didn't delete when you factory reset.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
Dude, first this is bad info. You can't get a recovery back through a nandroid. Second, the guy before you opened an old thread and the original op probably has his problem solved or he has a new phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Jnewell05:
I didn't say backup recovery. I was refering to his rom. If his recovery doesn't work then obviously he cannot flash or restore. And he also said that he flashed a ROM so obviously his recovery worked. Sorry didn't read the date.

Hello guys,

I´ve bought new Samsung i8730 with a stock firmware.

The device is really nice and have all the functions EXCEPT the messaging.

There is no standart SMS application on the phone.

I don´t know how I could fix it. (I did not found any custom firmwares)

Thanks this thread I´ve allready rooted my device, but I not sure weather I could just copy the .apk from other firmware or not.

up front sorry for all the noob questions....

I bought the nexus 7 from a co-worker, it was already rooted and loaded with CM 10.1.

About how long does it take CM to have 4.3 available?

You read everything you can. You obviously do not need to be trying to flash anything at this point or you will be back here asking how to recover your device. You need to spend at least a few days reading. As far as root goes, there is no method to root yet... It just came out.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbonezx11:
Will that's not quite true, I am on 4.3 and have root back with the new super user...

BUT, Russell, I agree with graydiggy. Read read read... There are stickies and info threads that tell how to root, unlock, flash.... Know how to do this before you go playing with new versions and CM night lies... and tempting as it may be, know enough beyond a "toolkit" to root, unlock etc... WUGFRESH has a nice tool but knowing is more than half the battle in this case... Enjoy CM 10.1 until you know enough, and they have 4.3 base... With some work, they will be about the same time...

I had stock rom rooted. I haven't updated to the OTA update of last week. I decided to load CM 10.1. I unlocked bootloader, installed CWM, factory reset and installed CM 10.1. Rebooted fine and loaded into new rom. Everything worked except radio. The phone never connected to Verizon. I decided to start from scratch again.

Loaded up the HD utility 1.20 app and I'm back to original stock with CWM recovery. The phone works fine at the moment. I'm unrooted and haven't accetped any OTA updates.

What do I need to do from here to get to CM 10?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] borland502:
I shattered the Glass on my GTII. Being an intrepid soul, I bought replacement glass and fixed the problem. However, in doing so the display now looks like ass. The panel works, and everything is legible, but it as if the OLED has lost the ability to turn off pixels completely. The screen is now masked by a brown haze weighted towards green.

If this is fixable I'll be thrilled, but I'd like to know what I did just as much. The display panel had no problems before I replaced the glass. What I broke must have occurred early as I booted the device up as soon as the glass was off to check if the phone still worked.

The phone is running the latest Goodness Rom and so far everything else seems to work just fine.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Multifluid:
When I tried to upgrade my radio to 1.12 I saw a problem at the very last step. I wanted to restore the backup file and at the end AS said it couldn´t restore several files. Alle files seemed to be BB relevant and all databases were missing. Reason AS stated was something locked access and AS is not able to write the files.

I thought this is a problem with radio 1.12 and downgraded to 1.06 and at least I reinstalled the hole ROM Ba_tmde_12201_182_10600_ship_special again. But always AS is not able to write the files.

So BB is not working well and all databases are empty.

Is there something spezial for a restore on MDA with BB ? I even tried to deactivate the service and start to restore, no success.

Any ideas?

Dear all,

I'm using s-pen and n5100 for around 3 months and then buy samsung case (magnetic flip cover, pink) for just 10 day ago.

I noticed that when I'm using s-note, I can't use my s-pen to select pointer option anymore (used to be normal) but my finger do it just fine.

Then I googling around for "s-pen problem" and found that there is an issue with all sort of magnetic, but it will back to normal when put the magnet away.

But in my case, it's not. the top part of the screen can't be use by s-pen amymore :crying::crying:

Is there a way to recover this? I'm on a German stock rom post by geek78.

Thanks

This is very disturbing. Just a couple of days ago, I decided I couldn't handle the inconvenience of the Stand Pouch anymore and took the plunge on an official Samsung Book Cover. I absolutely love it. My Note 8.0 now feels complete.

I was very anti magnetic covers, but as a few people have posted reviews on the book cover, and it's been some time with no complaints (till now)... I thought I was just being overly paranoid.

I've tested the spen digitizer thoroughly in sketchbook every day since getting this cover, and haven't noticed any problems yet.

Please let us know what Samsung have to say. Did you mention the book cover to them?

Also, I just assume it's the Official Book Cover for Galaxy Note 8.0 that you're using right?

To clarify my experience. I was using a very cheap case, not the official samsung one. I'm sure the samsung magnets are weaker and sheilded to minimise abverse effects. This is an assumption on my part though having not used one.
