[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JudderArts:
[Q] Root -> install font-> Stuck on boot screen -> fail actions -> imei changed what to do?

Okay guys... sad day here in finland. ATM: My imei is 004999010640000, which i believe is full trash (?), i got no connection to cellular networks, and i still have to pay this phone for a year.

What i did:

Tried to root it - Succeed.

Tried to install font - stuck on samsung logo.

Tried to wipe data/factory reset - still stuck

Tried to root again but without kies installed - still stuck

Tried to wipe data/factory reset - still stuck

I panic: try to install the whole android again with putting this in odin: I9300XXEMC3_I9300NEEEMC1_I9300XXEMB6_HOME.tar.md5 i downloaded it from some link here in xda thinking it was the right one because NEE is the nordic countries code. Well.

It went through, but imei was ^^ and so. Then i tried this: (mods please make it a spoiler, i dont know how)

And i got to number 7, but my EFS didnt have the button, also the qualcomm one crashed every time when i tried to connect.

Please, someone help me get my imei back so i can call and use mobile network, i can pay you like 10$ on paypal to solve this mess and get me back to my imei and rooted safely!!! HELP! Email: henri.huotari@gmail.com and skype: judderarts

I am actually terrified with the situation, i dont have a phone atm and im ****ed if this one gets bricked since my parents are still paying it for a year and they told me "luckily you're paying for your next phone by yourself" so help as soon as you can :crying:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danierakes:
What is your last firmware(b4 rooting happen)....flash that one..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JudderArts:
It was the same version (4.1.2)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnowPluralism:
Flash a rom with version ending on mg4
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JudderArts:
Can you link me one that works with nordic countries? (Finland)

And will it get my imei back?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnowPluralism:
Look in sammobile site any on europe region will do the job ;)

If it will work or not its hard to tell yet ... its worth the shot ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JudderArts:
I flashed the righ one but imei still 0049990etc... i found my imei under my battery, why isnt it the same? how can i get it to be the same?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
READ THE BASICS as posted >>> second post covers above .

Or just take it to a service centre and pay for them to repair IMEI .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JudderArts:
So... because i got no backup of my efs and installing stock rom with odin keeps my imei corrupted it has to go to service, isnt there any other way? And can i boot it to some kinda mode after making my custom flash counter 0 so i could take it to service and make them fix it for free (since 2 year warranty, expired if counter over 0 still left. Thanks for patience.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
See same question asked ten thousand times on xda

IMEI paid for repair is relativity inexpensive .
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] 3komma7:
hi,

as i'm not using the mda pro with t-mobile, i want to know what the software branding looks like? is it just a toolbar or is it deeply so it makes problems using other providers - for example with 3g and data prefs?

thx

mirko
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] benjlamont:
My understanding is that the branding is only the phone itself.

All the settings are changeable to another network if you wish. To use 3g tho you have to have a 3g provider.

Hope that helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mefistofel666:
Running:

Galaxy S3 (verizon, d2vzw)

SlimBean 4.x diabled dialpad with voicemail.

First of all, thank you for the great rom! Love it!!!!

I have been having problems with retrieving voicemail after instaling SlimBean (stable 4.2 and 4.3) If I store the password along with the number (123-456-7890,,xxxxx#) the dailpad is disabled. The only thing that works is "End call" button. However if i enter the code manually when calling the voicemail, then everything is fine. Any help would be appreciated.

TIA.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Firealoha:
Unfortunately this is a known issue and does not appear to be ROM specific. It happened to me on CM9 and every version of CM 10.x.x that I've tried.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mefistofel666:
Thanks for replying. At least someone cares :) I've tried other ROM and did not have this problem, but I guess just got lucky. I take it, there is no fix yet...?

[Moto X General] MichaelMcEntire:
Trying to figure out how to get one..
[Moto X General] nandowong:
I was, but given the resent news of a Nexus 5 with Sprint LTE support I'm holding off until it gets announced. If it won't come out to Sprint the Moto X will be my next.
[Moto X General] 14fanforever:
Where did you see tale of sprint nexus5
[Moto X General] someguyatx:
I will be getting one soon in white when its available for SWAC purchase. Having an available upgrade is nearly killing me but I doubt I will have to wait much longer. I'm not sure what you guys are reading about another Nexus on Sprint but I wouldn't hold my breath.
[Moto X General] bso44:
I'm still thinking about it. I'll probably time it so that I'm eligible to trade it in for a Note 3 within the 14-day grace period just in case I don't like it.

Good to see a familiar name :)

[Moto X General] gokart2:
I should get one soon hopefully. My broken screen EVO 3D finally gave up the other day, no phone ATM:crying:. Stopped by one of the local Sprint stores, they didn't have any in stock and would let me know when they'll be getting them in the store. Right now it seems they're only available online, not sure for how long though. Need to get my account balance payed down before i can upgrade though...:laugh:
[Moto X General] Aarongauntt:
Just some quick thoughts since i just got mine, all bloatware except sprint zone seems removable. Also unless it times out on me it looks like Google wallet may work. It came preloaded anyway
[Moto X General] CNexus:
Would you mind grabbing a system dump for me please? Connect phone to computer with usb debugging enabled and run the following command (open a command prompt in the directory where you have adb, tell me if you don't have it and I'll link you to a quick download for it)

adb pull /system system

Then wait for that to complete and zip up + upload the folder it makes and drop a link for me...

Thanks!
[Moto X General] Aarongauntt:
Yeah when I get some time. At work now
[Moto X General] CNexus:
Cool, thanks
[Moto X General] COLJ04:
Were you able to get wallet up and going? If you did then the rest of us may be able to bring it over the vzw and att. If we are able to change lines in our build prop to make it think its a sprint then install and set up wallet then revert back like we did with the s3. Might be some hope as long as the secure element is hidden somewhere.
[Moto X General] Aarongauntt:
Wallet works
[Moto X General] COLJ04:
I will most likely ask for some info from your build prop if you root or if its in the system dump I'll grab it from there if you don't mind. Thanks a lot.

[Moto X General] FatBoy_Seconds:
Does anyone know how to unlock the bootloader and root the sprint model? Ordered one online. It'll be here later today

PM me the link if it's on a site where downloads are capped or similar, and I'll mirror on AFH for others to use it
[Moto X General] bso44:
I wonder how the development will be on this phone. One thing I'll miss about my S3 is that the dev community for it was pretty damn good.
[Moto X General] Aarongauntt:
I've fiddled with trying to get it done but haven't came up with much. I've got a lot of stuff going on until Tuesday afternoon. I'll dive into it then if someone else doesn't come through.
[Moto X General] shabbypenguin:
probably not as much as you would hope for. the big devices on sprint still are latest samsung and latest htc. anything else is kind of hit or miss, the lg og community is fair enough for first big name lg device on sprint. the previous two moto devices on sprint have cm but the support is no where near a sgs3/4/note would get.

youll prolly end up with 1-2 devs working on a few various things for sprint for a while.
[Moto X General] FatBoy_Seconds:
Does anyone know how to get root on sprint model?
[Moto X General] shabbypenguin:
unlock the bootloader and flash recovery, or use the moto x root app designed for sprint :)
[Moto X General] FatBoy_Seconds:
Where can I find that app? The play store?

[Moto X General] bso44:
Just ordered mine. I should get it either Tues or Wed :victory::good:
[Moto X General] nandowong:
amazon wireless has it for $99 if anyone has not ordered yet. For new costumers and upgrades
[Moto X General] bso44:
Yea, that's a great deal. I'm on SERO though so I don't think I can buy it through Amazon and keep my plan.
[Moto X General] nandowong:
Hopefully the nexus 5 will be ~$300 and you can get that from the play store and use on sero :)
[Moto X General] bso44:
The one's they sell in the Play Store are GSM only.
[Moto X General] nandowong:
we can always hope lol

the model that went through the FCC had GSM and sprint frequencies. Maybe one version for all. If not, I'll use my upgrade so no biggie :) Although getting updates from google would be awesome!! please Softbank, be aggressive and take a chance :)

---------- Post added at 12:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 AM ----------

I also would like to add my two cents on the nexus on Sprint. I have owned a Nexus S 4G and a Galaxy Nexus on Sprint. I have to say that the Nexus experience on Sprint just really isn't a Nexus experience at all. In and out of AOSP, skipped updates, and all. I love my Nexi and wish/hippie Sprint does the next one right if they get it, but with a phone as awesome as the Moto X here, I just couldn't hold my breath any longer. I used my upgrade to get this and I have to say it's amazing. It's a more current version of Android than my GNex ever officially got, it's smooth as all get out, and it's really close to the "stock" Android experience.

I love this phone. No regrets here.

Sprint Moto X System Dump
[Moto X General] CNexus:
Thank you!
[Moto X General] TheWhiteChallenger:
Sweet thnx
[Moto X General] pantherzfinest:
its been about two weeks. the phone is very snappy. the active notifications help you get in and out. less swipes. the phone goes back in your pocket.

there are two bugs though. when i make a phone call sometimes, the screen turns off before it comes to my ear and won't turn back on. once it went to voicemail and i had no way of stopping. thank goodness for the camera shortcut. it turned the screen on.

the other has to do with the active notifications. if the phone is on for a long time, they just won't show. no clock, no nothing. after a restart, its back to normal.

otherwise, everything is good. battery life is about 26 hours and change. have yet to try it with the battery saver all day.
[Moto X General] plasticmoz:
Sounds like you may have an issue with a sensor (most likely the ambient light sensor) since active notifications is triggered under certain circumstances (picking the phone up, taking it out of the pocket etc.). If you're still within the return period you may want to get another unit as I haven't had those issues with either unit I've owned.
[Moto X General] mhsbrian:
I have the sprint version and just in time to, 4g is now live in my area. This phone is great, and coming from the HTC One to it seems to be just a way better device.
[Moto X General] pantherzfinest:
hmm, thanks for the info. i still have time. if its a problem, ill send it back. thanks.
[Moto X General] supadoggie:
I'm currently using a Note 2. What are your thoughts? Should I switch to the Moto X?

I stuck with a Galaxy S for 4 years so I may be a bit hardened to upgrade temptations, but I'd say no.
[Moto X General] bso44:
Do you have the Moto X?
[Moto X General] mrbradeli:
Just shipped today. Either way, I wasn't saying that the phone isn't good enough to upgrade to, I'm just saying it isn't worth it you should just wait another year or two.
[Moto X General] bso44:
I upgraded from an S3 and have absolutely no regrets. Love this phone.
[Moto X General] ethan.r.besbris:
Mine shipped. It'll be here tomorrow. Woot!
[Moto X General] abiezer:
You obviously haven't used this phone. Spec-wise it might not seem like an upgrade, but performance-wise it will rip any Samsung to shreds, or almost any other phone at that.
[Moto X General] mrbradeli:
You're totally misunderstanding me. My point is that when you pay a ton of money for something, you should use it until it becomes completely unusable, like I did with my Galaxy S Vibrant from 4 years ago.
[Moto X General] Bm13084:

Any sprint users here got the camera update?
[Moto X General] ethan.r.besbris:
Not yet.
[Moto X General] thedosbox:
Sure, someone earning minimum wage should give serious consideration to how they spend their money. That's less important for someone who earns the cost of a phone in less than a day.
[Moto X General] mrbradeli:
It has nothing to do with how much money I have. It has to do with how I feel about throwing it everywhere. Its my money and I'm only going to spend it on something that I won't regret half a year in. Maybe I'm just a bit jaded when it comes to android phones. I bought my Vibrant back in 2010, and its been nothing but trouble, so I made sure not to buy another phone until I was sure it was a much better phone specs wise and aside from that eliminated all of the problems that made using the vibrant a living hell.
[Moto X General] thedosbox:
Um, you made a blanket statement on how other people should spend their money.

Hint: not everyone is you.
[Moto X General] mrbradeli:
Its an opinion and a suggestion, nothing more.
[Moto X General] 00mred00:
Got mine yesterday. It is a good phone bit not something I personally would dump a Note 2 or HTC one for.

I will use it until my G2 comes in and give it to my son or sell it
[Moto X General] Craaaig_:
Where's my update! :(
[Moto X General] clavin78:
I have an HTC One right now, moto x on the way. From reading about it im excited to get it. In my opinion the Ones camera is too horrible to keep.
[Moto X General] 00mred00:
Hrm...have nothing but great shots from my one

One of my favs

I haven't really played with the camera on the X extensively yet. I did compare the One with the S4 and Note 2 I was carrying and didn't really see anything remarkable in any of them

The X is a great phone...especially for a vanilla experience. My opinion is it is just too bland for the price point. Those creature features people despise on the other phones I actually use.
[Moto X General] 26kick:
Moto X on Sprint

Just a general comment pertaining to this thread, I just read the article on Android Central specifically about the Sprint version. The general take was that it's the same phone as the other carrier models, just hindered a bit by Sprint's network. They mentioned that the bloatware could mostly be disabled. They also mentioned that it was absent of carrier branding, except for the startup screen.

Besides the fact that I'm on 3g most of the time, Sprint's network hasn't treated me too badly, but then I don't know what it's like to be on Verizon or At&t. Plus I understand that Sprint is going through severe growing pains right now and they are setting themselves up (network wise) for success in the future. Hopefully that is true.....

Hi I've only had my nexus 4 for a few days and I love it. The only problem I have is that I struggle to hear SMS messages. The phone is very loud for calls but not for messages. Is there an app or setting that I can change to fix this? I'm on stock ROM atm.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
You need to be rooted to increase volume levels with a mod bro. You might look here if this helps https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.liquidsoft.entertainment.volume.booster&hl=nl.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Melt1down:
Another non root way is to download louder notification sounds and have a file manager app. To change sound go to sound in settings and use the file manger app just once in the pop up and find the notification sound you downloaded in the download folder of your SD partition.

[Moto X Q&A] lockdown571:
I just noticed that I can't seem to add add lockscreen widgets to my Moto X. On the lockscreen I have the camera if I swipe to the right but nothing happens if I try swiping to the left. On my Galaxy Nexus I get the plus icon that lets me add widgets.I don't have any security right now either, just swipe to unlock. Are lockscreen widgets supposed to work on the Moto X?
[Moto X Q&A] lockdown571:
Never mind, got it working again. Activating the google apps device policy app with my university seems to have disabled them. When I tried to add my Moto X to my google device manger, it made me activate that. Oddly, after deactivating the device policy app, the Moto X still appears in my devices and I can use the find my phone feature.
[Moto X General] FligMupple:
* for me

Since the Moto X stock ROM is so unbloated (does that make sense?) and pure Androidy, I don't really care when or if new ROMs become available.

Here are things that I was used to, and are not in the untweaked stock ROM:

- No carrier text in status bar (fixed with MotoXposed)

- No weird gap between wifi indicator and cell signal icon (fixed with MotoXPosed)

- Circle with no percentage battery icon (fixed with Gravity Box)

- Reboot on Power Menu (fixed with Gravity Box)

- Close all in Recent Apps (fixed with Gravity Box)

Now there is nothing that my heart yearns for on my phone. What am I going to do with all my free time? Cancer research? Or maybe I should get back to creating new Malcolm and Twibbs comics.
[Moto X General] d70:
Cancer research is a good idea, but how about just help root the AT&T and Verizon version?
[Moto X General] madquack:
If you've got plenty of free time, why don't you learn how to do things manually? This is not an insult either. Decompile apps, de-odex them, re-odex them, mess around with smali/baksmali, change out images in different apps. you'll be amazed at what you can learn if you have the inclination.

I implore everyone to learn these simple things. Don't be like 99% of this forum and rely solely on the develeopers and real smali hackers spoon feeding others. There are tutorials all over xda and rootzwiki, you'll be surprised what you can learn.

Good luck.
[Moto X General] hidea:
Good suggestion! I think it's about time I get my hands dirty and learn how the OS works!
[Moto X General] mk1151:
Thanks for the tip on motoXposed - looks like an amazing app. Can't wait to try it once someone figures out how to root AT&T phones

Hey guys,

i flashed cm10.1 on my Xperia U yesterday and now i can't get over 10 kb/s download speed.. Upload and ping are as good as usual.

Things i tried:

-flashing several baseband versions

-trying different APNs

-bought a new flatrate to make sure the volume is okay

-deactivated all sync stuff

-flashed stock rom again (same problem) and then flashed cm10.1 again

nothing worked..

I really hope someone can help me.

your download speed is low thru wi-fi service or mobile data?

if wi-fi then it depends on your pc network speed
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] iamdchosen1:
If you did flash your stock ROM but the problem still persists, then it's your net connection that is suffering from low speeds..
