Another question(s) for you sir, I understand that unlocking the BL will enable you to flash a custom recovery but do you need to unlock to flash custom roms? And if you don't what recovery image do you use to flash roms with? And if I unlock the BL using the moto website what method do I use the obtain root?

[Moto X Q&A] deskhack:
Same Issue

T-Mobile Moto X with the same issue; enter code from fastboot formatted as instructed into the unlock webform and get 'does not qualify'. Sat on the phone with Motorola's awful support for an hour (mostly on hold) wading through support reps that do not understand what the difference is between 'bootloader' and 'SIM' unlock and finally got to tier-3 support, which was closed for the day, and will be calling me back. Web chat was futile, the rep kept insisting this is for the developer edition only, (which ships unlocked to begin with therefore negating the need for an unlock request).
[Moto X Q&A] deskhack:
Was just successful. Not sure if this was Motorola's fault or not, but i tried again, doing everything the same way as before and it worked, code was e-mailed and phone is unlocked.
[Moto X Q&A] kolyan:
same **** here, cant unlock with tmobile
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
I had the same problem on my Rogers xt1058...But the next day it just worked. So just keep trying. ;)

[Moto X Q&A] kolyan:
After about an 1 hour with Moto Support team they told me Tmobile version is NOT unlockable and their webiste is wrong
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
If they said it is, but it isn't. Good ground for return.

Also, I wouldn't trust what they say at that level of support. I emailed support when mine wouldn't work.... Clearly asking about my boot loader and their response was my version was not carrier unlocked. Not the sharpest knives in the drawer over there. Lol

[Moto X Q&A] kolyan:
Escalated issue, level 2 support rep logged in my PC to make sure and he wasnt able to unlock either.
[Moto X Q&A] daritoca:
Try to unlock it today, I was in the same problem a few days ago, In motorola webpage says that my bootloader doesnt qualify for unlock, but today my luck changes, and I try it again, and for my sorprice was that the unlock code was available.
[Moto X Q&A] Rhiannon224:
I am having the same issue.
[Moto X Q&A] planktoid:
Is this a new motomaker device ?
[Moto X Q&A] Rhiannon224:
Not Moto Maker, it's a GSM Developer Edition and I received it on Thursday.
[Moto X Q&A] mattyv316:
I had the same issue. Keep trying the site till it works. I bought an off contract tmo version from motomaker, was greated with the same message on their site, and recieved the same responce from support.

After I refused the responce from their support and told them only att and vzw don't qualify, the rep did research and came to the same conclusion. Basically, if you paid full price, you should be able to unlock. As I was waiting for him to come back to the phone, the unlock website worked. I guess the 10th time was the charm :). Keep trying and push back on support if you need to call in. Good luck
[Moto X Q&A] planktoid:
Apologies for the wrong response from our customer support.

There (sometime) is a 1-2 day delay for the unlock code (and the motomaker device record) to propagate to our backend. I am trying to improve it, but as all motomaker devices are unique, this does happen. I'll try to make sure this is reflected on the bootloader tool.

If anyone else has a similar issue, feel free to also DM me on XDA. happy to help.
[Moto X Q&A] Rhiannon224:
Thanks to [MENTION=4810209]planktoid[/MENTION] for providing awesome support I have my Bootloader unlock code from Moto and I am unlocked and rooted!
[Moto X Q&A] DanRyb:
I'm having the same exact problem here with a new Moto X (GSM Unlocked/T-Mo version) that I can't unlock the bootloader. The website is telling me my device is not eligible for unlock. I spent over an hour on the phone with tier 2 support who escalated it to tier 3 but I can't call them directly. I have to wait 24 to 48 hours for them to contact me.

What was the fix for this? Did it get fixed?
[Moto X Q&A] :
The fix for me was time. LOL. It didn't work all night the first night. Then the next day after work....boom...it worked. Keep trying. ;)

Sent from my Moto X cellular telephone...
[Moto X Q&A] DanRyb:
Really? Interesting. So the day you got it, no go at all. Then the very next day it worked no problem? Did you contact Moto about it or you just waited first, it worked, so then of course you didn't need to call?
[Moto X Q&A] :
I emailed support....and my reply was they can't unlock my sim for me. LOL. I was very very clear....but they still somehow misunderstood me.

But the next day it just worked. I think their system just is lousy and glitchy and it can take many attempts to get through the process.

Try every couple hours....and the next day. Bet it works before they ever solve anything. LOL

Good luck! ;)

Sent from my Moto X cellular telephone...
[Moto X Q&A] DanRyb:
LOL yes, I spent HOURS on the phone with support first trying to convince them that the GSM Unlocked/T-Mobile Moto X can be unlocked. I literally had to provide them the URL to their own support page to prove my point to them! It's so frustrating! So now I have to wait until Friday or Monday for a tier 3 support agent to call me back. I've been trying numerous times today but I guess I'll cross my fingers that it works tomorrow. :)
[Moto X Q&A] :
Just be sure your taking the spaces out. I'm sure you have...but just saying. :)

Sent from my Moto X cellular telephone...
[Moto X Q&A] DanRyb:
Hey, never hurts to double check lol. I wish that were all it was! I am taking out the spaces though so who knows. :( But hopefully, like you, it'll work tomorrow! :)
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
Just give it a day or two and it will work. They don't seem to update the database very often and there just seems to be days when the back end server is down. Someone will reboot it and then it will work right away.
[Moto X Q&A] :
I bought mine off a classifieds site too.....so when it was actually purchased in a store had nothing to do with it. I think just the night I tried to unlock it, their site was wonkey.

[Moto X Q&A] phonepersonality:
Same issue here.

Purchased directly from MotoMaker.

Interestingly enough, I kept on trying the button and at one point it verified that my device would be unlocked (and my warranty voided or whatever). I clicked on OK and it suddenly took me to an error page on Motorola's site.

Someone needs to reboot the DB.

UPDATE:

Works now after a few hours.

[G2 Accessories] skygunner27:
Does anyone know where I can purchase this case? I've tried every AT&T in my area and in the Seattle area and I cannot find anyone with this case in stock for purchase.
[G2 Accessories] bri315317:
I have been looking with no luck. If you find one. Please let me know where.
[G2 Accessories] skygunner27:
I will call at&t directly after I cancel my Verizon order for the wrong case. I'll let you know what happens.....

I am on the phone with AT&T and they can NOT find this case in their system/inventory....it's so annoying. If we had Verizon here in Anchorage, I would take back this phone and go with the Verizon variant. I spoke with an AT&T rep who is calling all the stores within a hundred miles to see if she can locate one for me. When she calls me back, I will update this post. :(
[G2 Accessories] Ichisan76:
Try some T Mobile Stores as well, I know they give one for free maybe they have some in stock early before the phone release.
[G2 Accessories] deeznuts:
I just searched all over google search and NOTHING!!! Sucks cus i always have a case and screen protector literally the instant i take my device out the box. When i saw this case i fell in love, perfect for me at the gym with that little window music player. Just tap tap and change track, lol! Only place i've found this sold is on ebay in S. Korea for $79.99, not worth half that price imo for what the case is actually made out of. Costs probably $5 to make this damn case and sells for $79.99, yeah no deal!
[G2 Accessories] cmbtswmr:
A bit off topic, but while the Verizon rep was trying to figure out what the G2 even was, I tried on this case in the store and was severely disappointed in how cheap it felt.

My main issues are that nothing holds the flap closed so it gets caught on my pocket pulling it in and out and the hinge is the cheapest parts of the entire case, so it "shifts" on the phone. I can't explain it much better than that, but the window cover just sort of "flaps around."

Just thought I would share so you don't loose too much sleep trying to track it down.
[G2 Accessories] gtvanhorn:
Best buy now shows the window case online but its not available anywhere yet. Hopefully this means they are expecting some because I have been looking since purchase also
[G2 Accessories] rain175:
Just ordered it from Best Buy!!!

It was my understanding that LG wasn't releasing this case the same time the phone was released... Hence why everyone is having such problems finding it.

Best Buy said it wasn't available in any stores yet, but I did just order it from online, and they say it will ship tomorrow... So, I think that is your best best. The only have the black color available though, but they do have it for all the carriers, including VZW .

[G2 Accessories] myv6mustang:
just picked one up from t mobile. taking it back doesnt add 50 bucks worth of protection or features
[G2 Accessories] thanasisc4:
T mobile sent me one free with my phone. I strongly advise against using this case without a screen protector.

The metal banding around the inside of the window scratched my screen. Granted the scratch is barely visible and it takes some effort to see but I imagine it would only get worse from there so I stopped using it. Anyone want mine?
[G2 Accessories] Clownzer:
I'll give you my white one, it doesn't fit my phone right. The bottom left hand corner keeps popping out.
[G2 Accessories] rebelx:
Thanks for this information. This case is not going to be for me. I'll try to sell mine for a few bucks mine when Sprint ships the G2.
[G2 Accessories] zima_elo:
Unfortunately I must agree :/

I've been using this case for two weeks now and noticed today that my screen is scratched. And the scratches are visible :/

I wrote to LG about that and I'm waiting for the answer.

Thats how my screen looks:

Unfortunately they haven't. I am sick and tired of waiting, so on Monday I will return the phone and the case to my mobile operator with a reclamation.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fmohiy:
i've had an S4 mini duos fro 3 days that replaces my Note 2 as i wanted a smaller phone with good features.

before i got the S4 i made sure to check all the reviews and youtube videos and made a lot of camparisons on gsmarena.

Not a single site or review mentioned how terrible 3g speed is on this phone.

Check this comparison of HSDPA speeds supported by some device:

S4 mini i9192------14.4 Mbps

Note 2 n7100------21.2 Mbps

S4 i9500 -----------42.2 Mbps

Mega 6.3 i9200---21.2 Mbps

i made a side by side comparison with a friends Mega 6.3 phone using 2 apps,

speedtest

, average of 3 tests showed the s4 mini returned half the speed of the mega phone

netwrok signal info (on vodafone egypt)

the mega connected much more frequently on 14.4 than the mini, and with better network signal percent

the mini stayed almost all the time on 7.2 and only touched 14.4 for couple seconds then returned back to 7.2.

As both the mega and s4 mini have the same CPU from qualcom, i belive there is an either with the antenna of the S4 mini, which is shorter/weaker due to its smaller size, or the software of the mini is not yet optimized due to the dual sims/antennas

either way, i really am disapointed with the 3g performance of the s4 mini duos, which is a pitty as i love all other aspects of this phone.

Did anyone else face slow 3g speeds with the mini, or am i the only one?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirot:
!

yes it is slow also for me too.by this reason i sold my phone and go back to S4.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nroberto13:
hi,

I'm facing some strange issues with the mini duos.

while on 3G, email client is not connecting for sync, and facebook messenger is not working properly ( when a send messages, it's saying sending... and takes an eternity to send it ) although internet browsing is working fine and even faceboko wall browsing is loading fine, also google maps is working, so there's internet connection definitely.

i did a speed test today with radio opt, and seems to be ridiculous speed

dowload: ~400kbps

upload: ~100kbps

ping: not working..

I'm wondering what could be the cause ...

are the email client and facebook messenger using different types of connections to internet browser, google maps and so on?

On wifi, everything is working fine!

Regards,

Robert.

On the back of my S4 Mini Duos box it clearly says HSDPA 21.1/ HSUPA 5.76 :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nroberto13:
would you please try if your device behaves the same way as mine on 3G , see my previous post?

Thank you!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fmohiy:
I never got my phone to connect past 14.4 but you are right it mentioned 21.1 on the box.

Still it is waaay slower than my note 2 which was also 21.1.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rew64:
I've just done a speed test. See attached picture.

So that puts it firmly in the 14.4 Mbps bracket. Maybe Samsung are telling fibs :(
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fmohiy:
can you download "network signal info" app from the play store and tell us if it ever connects above 14.4?

Mine doesn't even in very strong signal areas.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fmohiy:
i get some strange behaviours also, but for me the phone would show the "H" signal and "network signal info" would clearly show connection on 14.4 Mbps, yet i don't have any data connectivity and speed test would just show "communication error".

i would stay like that for a couple of minuted, discconnects and reconnects the HSPA connection by itself and then start working fine.

I still belive it is either a weak antenna by design or immature modem drivers. I'm hoping it is the later and samsung would fix it by a firmware update.

PS: i've had a note 2 for one year and before that a note one for another year and neither one of them had similar issues with data connection.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rew64:
I've downloaded the program via WI-FI but I will have to wait until I go to work later to test it on 3G as I live in a very rural area with only 2G coverage.

I've also contacted my service provider (3UK) and they say that the strength and speed of the signal is dependent on what part of the country you are in, big city's being the best.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rew64:
Here is the result of my test. It connects OK but it dose really depend on which area I'm in.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fmohiy:
so the S4 mini duos chip has the ability to connect on 21.6. the problem again seems to be either hw (antenna design) or Sw(modem drivers) beacuse the S4 mini is consideraby slower than a note 2 or a galaxy mega 6.3 depending on personal observations and tests.

i've solved part of my problem by buying a second sim from anthother service provider "etisalat" that have better 3g coverage in egypt and use it on sim slot 1 only for data.

Now i get speeds a bit closer to what i used to get with vodafone on the note 2. and my vodafone data coverage using the s4 mini is hoplessly slow in areas where it used to be fine in the note 2.

where does that leave us??

should the S4 be considered defected because of its inferior 3g cabability in comparison with the handsets from a level up (s3, s4, the notes), or should we consider it as something that should be expected from a handset that is a category lower and with smaller screen size / dimensions?

do all Samsung handsets of screen sizes 4.3 or lower face the same issue?

I think it's only a modem drivers problem.. AMH2 software is really buggy for me.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerty1q:
What firmware are you on pls?

I m using my duo in the UK and 14mb it's max I can get, although Note 2 with the same sim card gives me 21mb (3 UK)

Im currently on rooted MF7, the phone comes from Emirates though
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rew64:
The phone is a week old and I'm using it on the 3UK network. Everything on the phone has UAMF7 at the end. Not rooted.

I've only managed to get it to connect at 21.1Mbps twice and most of the time it's at 14
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerty1q:
I have never got signal above 14mb, Note 2 keepa saying 21mb all the time with the same sim card, maybe it's firmware fault?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rew64:
The only difference I can see is in my screen shot I have the + sign next to the H in the top bar when on 21.6Mbps and yours doesn't, plus you have the R for roaming in your top bar. That normally means your roaming on to the Orange network (EE now) because it can't pick up the 3UK network.

What is the net operator number?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rew64:
I've been in Birmingham UK all week and the phone constantly connects at 21.6Mbps so I think it's more network related than the actual phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerty1q:
Hmmm interesting, I live in Manchester and everywhere around here I have 14mb only. Do you own a duo s4 mini?

What's your firmware kernel etc please

What's your network? Mine is 3UK
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rew64:
Yes i own a Duos S4 Mini I've had it about 3 weeks now. Not rooted all stock as it came out of the box.

I'm on 3UK the same as you.

When you see the + sign next to the H (H+) thats when it's on 21.6 Mbps

See file below for the rest of the info.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerty1q:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] hughlle:
Maybe that was because the original N7 was their first tablet, and they wanted to do anything, even a small thing, to promote uptake. Once they saw what a hit it was they realized they didn't need to bother with free things to promote purchases.

the battery is just pathetic..gives just 4-5 back up ..with just moderate use.

have installed juice defender, sleep time is 30 second,black wallpaper , no face book , no sync , no radios expect at times WiFi nothing at all.

It gets heated up very soon, i mean while its on charge, while calling, while playing videos,games. It gets heated up more than usual.

lcd started to have lines on it,and its growing day by day.

What could be the problem battery, lcd or the whole damn phone.?
