[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chiperez:
Hello there, and greetings from Guatemala.

I have a problema with my S4 GT-I9500. I had my phone rooted and today, i wanted to unroot my phone by flashing vía Odin the original Samsung Frimware (my carrier is Tigo). By mistake, i flashed a Samsung Official Firmnware from another Carrier, which is Claro!! Then i flashed the correct firmware rom for my carrier but now the phone is not recognizing the SIM, and obviously i dont have mobile data, sms and calls. Phone is just working with WiFi. Went to the Carrier to check if the SIM is working and certainly it Works well in another phone, so the SIM is not the problem. I belive the problem is when i flashed the wrong firmware from the other Carrier. Does anyone in this forum knows how to fix this?

Will appreciate your help.

Thanks and regards.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Senjaya:
you may recover your phone by flashing right modem. how about trying the above link.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chiperez:
It worked! Thanks

Thanks samersh72 , it worked fine flashing the moden you recomended (I9500UBUBMG9). In fact, i tried flashing the correct stock modem (I9500UBUAMDE) and it flashes the fake imei again, having the same problem.

Now, the question is, why flashing the correct Samsung original ROM blocks my imei? Its not an issue because y can fix it with the recomended modem tahnks to you, But its still a concern i will have everytime i will have to flash a original ROM.

Thank you and thanks to all for responding.

maybe fuse blow becouse of incorect voltage,when you replaced fuse (with other,maybe big value,or wire,this wouldn't blow but do other damage on power part of device.try with other charged battery maybe problem is only on charging part but too few chances to be only charging par damaged.
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
My contract with Sprint is going to be up soon and, sadly, I am moving on to a different device. Although my Photon was a great device the unfulfilled promises from Moto/Sprint and lack of a trouble free ROM above Gingerbread leaves me no other suitable option but to upgrade. Tie that to the fact that I have moved to an area where Sprint service barely exists and my P4G's fate is sealed.

That said, everyone here in the Photon forums will be missed. There are some very talented dev's here that I owe a great amount of Thanks to. Loki, th3bill, jokersax and so many others made it possible to unlock much of my device's potential. If only Moto would have coughed up what they promised the Photon would have truly been a formitable device for anyone to reckon with.

Anyone have suggestions on the best place to list a near mint Photon4G with an unlockable bootloader? I'm sure it could possibly be of some use to a devloper somewhere.

(Mods please don't delete, I am not trying to sell here. Just want to know the best place to list.)
[Motorola Photon 4G] rbeavers:
I got a Photon Q used for $100. No LTE here yet, but was able to Unlock bootloader and running CM10.2
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Sounds like a good deal. For me I'm going to Big Red, Sprint has no local service here (only roaming) and everyone else is either more $$ or bad service (did a lot of research). So I gave in and am getting the GS4.
[Motorola Photon 4G] rbeavers:
The Moto X will be available soon on Verizon.
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
But will it be rootable and romable??
[Motorola Photon 4G] retailguy:
I switched to ATT for the same reasons you're talking about Verizon. I also got the S4 and I LOVE it. It has the best battery life of any phone I have ever had, bar none. I bought two extra batteries and a charger, as I always do when I get a new phone, it's been two months now, and I have yet to use them. One day I got the battery down to 17%, but otherwise, never below 30%, and I do use the phone a lot. I don't miss my Moto phones at all. Never again. Regarding selling your phone, I think they promote swappa around here. You could always use craigslist too. But if you're in a position to consider it, as I was, think about donating to one of the developers. I donated my phone and honestly hope some good has come of it.

For me, I cannot think of a phone I want LESS than this moto phone. They used to have better radios but I don't think that's true anymore. My S4 works everywhere I've needed it. No dropped calls, 4G service that's much better than Sprints service, and we had 4G LTE here in Houston. Step away from the moto addiction, you won't be sorry you did. There is GOOD life without moto, and Punit Soni doesn't need your buisness, trust me on that. That guy has deluded himself about his honesty and ethics, to the point that he doesn't even realize he talks out of both sides of his mouth.

I agree with the sentiments expressed on the development here, and the community that was built. It was the friendliest, most helpful group of people I'd ever been around bar none. I miss that a lot, but I haven't missed the photon for 5 minutes. Well, I kind of missed it while I used the Galaxy Nexus I bought off ebay for six months, that thing had horrible battery life, but otherwise was an equivalent phone. Since I've had the S4, not missed the photon for a minute.
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Thanks retailguy, you're the second person that has told me good things about the GS4. Hopefully I'll get the MDK build instead of ME7 when I pick it up this week.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
I'm ditching smartphones completely and moving to the Omate TrueSmart. If I'm going to loose Ubuntu for Android functionality I see no reason for me to waste my money on a smartphone.
[Motorola Photon 4G] retailguy:
Most likely. Motorola has built a website to unlock the bootloader. But beware, the moment you use it, your warranty will be voided.

---------- Post added at 08:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:26 PM ----------

Truthfully, I don't know which build I even have. Other than access to wireless tethering, and removing the ATT bloat, I see no reason to even root the phone. It's THAT good.
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Moto may have built the site but I have read in many places that VZW does not support or allow unlockable BL's from the mfg's.
[Motorola Photon 4G] retailguy:
Yep, you're right. Not having Verizon, I forgot about that. Unless someone finds an exploit, the bootloader will stay locked. And considering that no one has found an exploit for the Photon, it's doubtful that anyone will find one for the X. Personally, I believe that's why Motorola never unlocked the photon bootloader, it was their unofficial "test" to see if the community could defeat their security. But, I've also been accused of being a bit paranoid too.:D
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
You must be talking about the Photon Q. I remember reading that before it was released. The Photon 4G was put out with an unlockable bootloader. That was the reason I picked one up. Mine runs CM10.2. I really like the features that Cyanogenmod puts into their ROMs. That's why I'm hoping to get the MDK build. If I do CM will be on my GS4 in a matter of hours.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Koopa777:
If you are on Verizon or AT&T, expect every phone you buy to be locked down tighter than Fort Knox. To the people looking for the MDK build of the S4, YOU WILL NOT FIND IT. YOUR PHONE WILL BE PERMALOCKED OOB. The turnover was brutally fast, and 99.9% of all new units after the OTA were shipped with ME7 pre-installed. That's for both carriers. Unless you buy used or can verify that it wasn't updated. My friend has the AT&T one, and I keep telling him that I feel his pain haha.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kdog350:
There is going to be a Verizon developer edition Moto X with an unlocked bootloader out of the box.
[Motorola Photon 4G] retailguy:
Motorola pushed an update that locked the bootloader. Anyone who had 2.3.4 and accepted that update got a present of a locked bootloader that no one has been able to defeat. My understanding is if you got 2.3.5 from the factory you did not have this problem. Only those who participated in the soak test have locked bootloaders.

You must have a factory 2.3.5 phone, or one that originally had 2.3.4 and was not updated as part of the soak test.
[Motorola Photon 4G] retailguy:
Wow. This is surprising and disappointing, but truthfully, I haven't even thought about unlocking the bootloader on this phone. The stock rom does everything I want it to do, and since it's the most popular Samsung phone out there , it'll probably be supported longer than I care to use it. It will affect what I buy next time, the whole locked bootloader really ticks me off, but c'est la vie. I will survive. At least they didn't lock it during a soak test and take functionality away from me. I stupidly didn't investigate before I bought the phone. Won't do that again...
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Could be. My understanding is if you have 2.3.4 you can unlock. If you have 2.3.5 you cannot unlock, regardless of how you got it. Root is still obtainable either way.

That comment was unessary, just because u don't flash Roms doesn't mean you have to hate on the hard working devs.

That "crap" that you flash is provided to you for free and the developer uses his time/resources to provide for you, u should be thanking them for trying instead of calling it crap. Or at least provide constructive criticism. I'd like you to build a ROM based on a leak
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] handman29:
That 4.3 Rom is buggy..I'm on tmo us.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ericshmerick:
Lol no hate. And no thank you on building a ROM. I'm busy making a living thanks. I've flashed enough buggy ROMs in my life to be done with it. "Bluetooth and GPS doesn't work but - DAILY DRIVER!" No thanks.

If flashing ROMs and such is your thing, fantastic! Its not mine. Good luck. Choices. Love them.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] moeahmad1995:
Never said it was mine either, I don't build or flash Roms, just meant that the comment was unessary, u don't need to thank me, I'm just a phone junkie.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ridearoundsolo:
I agree with op with the same reasons I'm done with flashing but I won't hate on the devs because they do an amazing job and for FREE, I'm just finally content with a skinned android os like sense 5 is dope, I'm just patiently waiting for 4.3 I really need quick settings, I don't like third party apps for that certain feature either

I am thinking about getting the Nexus 7 coming from the iPad mini. I have quite a collection of games and was particularly wondering if the new Nexus performs well with that PPSSPP emulator? Will I be happy with the performance for a lot of games or is the Nexus too slow?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] nikzDHD:
I've been using drastic ds on mine for ds games and they are running without any hitches. Not tried any psp games on it yet though.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] MeS117:
You ask if the nexus will be too slow, yet you're coming from an iPad mini...

Of course they will run great! I've tried NES, SNES, GBA, DS, and have heard a out PSX and PSP emulators running flawlessly.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] RickLyons74:
Check out RetroArch... the best and free
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Devnant:
Some games run perfectly (Corpse Party, VC 2, Patapoon), but most are still kinda slow (Crisis Core, Fate/Extra, Dangaronpa framebuffered to CPU, etc.). PPSSPP still have a long way to go it seems, or the Nexus 7 2013 simply isn´t powerful enough.

But Drastic DS is perfect for every single DS game I´ve tried so far.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] L1lyksd@ddy:

I got an MHL to HDMI cable today, which works amazingly.

I also have a capture card, and was interested in the idea of recording my screen with this system. But of course, all the Samsung Galaxy models seem to have the HDCP protection. Kind of annoying.

Is there any kind of way, software wise, to disable this? Some sort of root app or process? Or is it limited to the hardware?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Hammerfest:
So, I decided to stick with stock and what do I get? A phone that randomly stops working like I flashed a custom rom on it :X

All jokes and the sad situation aside, when plugged in i can get the Download Mode to stay open (else it closes after 3sec when not plugged in), figured I would try and flash the Stock Kernel to try and recover some of my app data but can only get to download mode so cant use recovery!

Can someone throw together an Odin flash-able Stock 4.1.2 Galaxy Note i717 Kernel together for me? Id like to try that before I outright flash over the entire rom through Odin!

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
ok, I read that you have seemingly more than ample experience here o XDA, so I want to give you the respect that is due, however you post is a wee bit confusing. maybe that's due to a lack of some other information.

let me ask a few questions.

is this phone new to you?

can you get to about phone info? what does it say?

I don't understand you download mode information..........

if you were trying t flash stock kernel, then your not on stock?

if you are on stock, then you HAVE stock kernel?

what recovery are you supposed to have?

no offense meant, but you HAVE pressed VOL UP & DOWN and POWER until vibe and logo then releasing POWER for download mode right?

again no offense, but sometimes the simplest things right.......
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Hammerfest:
None taken :D been around the block a few times...

As for the phone, its basically in need of replacement by my thoughts, but I wanted to try and salvage some of my app data files:

WITHOUT the power plugged in, the unit does nothing but vibrate when I press the VOL Down, and any other key combos do not make the unit respond either.

When I remove the battery, then hold the VOL Down button... down... then put the battery back in, the unit will start in "Download mode" but even if I leave it on the screen or hit the up arrow to continue, after a few seconds it just shuts off and wont stay on.

However when I remove the battery, then hold the VOL Down, then plug in the adapter, it boots into download mode and doesnt shut off after a few moment's (however it wont start normally when I plug it in, just eternally vibrate).

The unit is an AT&T Variant of the Samsung Galaxy Note, specifically just the SGH-i717

The unit was/is running STOCK ROM+Kernel

I was making the request for the Stock Kernel for an Odin flash because when I had the Stock 4.0.4 I had a very identical situation occur (the difference being back then I could get and stay in download mode without using the power adapter) and used the Stock Odin Kernel from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1506330

To get back into the unit and continue on without issue.

So the core of my post remains the same :D I need an Odin flash-able Stock AT&T 4.1.2 i717 kernel :D

*Your right, been here a while, I have tried again and again to grasp doing my own builds and all that other stuff when it comes to development and "do it yourself" and while I can fix a computer, build one, troubleshoot one, when it comes to Code... I am SO lost without a cause its not funny, so making the kernel file for myself is like asking me to walk on water when I am perfectly able to swim laps around someone who is :D...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rquiett:
Sounds like you more than likely have a bad battery or a stuck power button. Mine had stuck on two separate occasions and just sits there vibrating and can't get it to boot or anything. Since I'm pretty sure you are out of warranty you can take a small screw driver and guitar pick to take it apart and use a little rubbing alcohol to clean the button.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
kind of with RQUIETT............

after reading more detailed post, the first thing that came to my head was the stuck power button issue which has plagued many.

the battery, I have seen many have that too.

I am definitely not he brainpan to just whip up a kernel like it were a batch of cookies or something, I am still just curious as to why you keep going on about just the kernel, but to each there own.

good luck and keep us posted
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Hammerfest:
if you are still curious then you failed to read my last post... reading not required I guess

Ill check the power button, but it definitely doesn't feel stuck, gives the wonderfully audible click still (been in an otterbox the whole time), I also had the local AT&T store order me a replacement battery, if not Insurance claim it will be.

Random thought, the thing that doesnt add up is that if its a stuck power button, then it would STILL turn off when plugged in to the AC/PC, which it doesnt... but Im willing to give it a try because If fear they will try and replace my wonderful 16:10 screen with a ****ty 16:9 one... (sorry, for all the wow of the GN2, its to NARROW for my use)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
if anyone reads around here it is me, and I think its ok for me not to understand what needing a kernel alone is going to do for you. you came cross to me as a little harsh at someone who is trying to help and little demanding to expect someone to drop what they are doing just whip up a file for you flash in Odin.

I never claim to know everything here, and again, many times what I have to say (right or wrong) will spark someone else to chime in with a more educated answer.

but hey glad to try and help you anyway
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rquiett:
My power button never felt stuck when it was. It did a lot of what you described when it did. Sometimes you can take it out of the case and tap on the back and it will free it up
