[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] mazdamiata210:
This is useful if you have a weak LTE signal or just don't need it always on. I found this tutorial on a different website for another galaxy phone and it works on the Note 3.

1. Turn off your phone and take out your sim card.

2. Turn on your phone with no sim card and wait a minute or two for it to turn on and settle down.

3. Go to the dialer and dial *#2263#

You should see a menu with band selections. The current setting is "Automatic".

(You have to use the menu key to select your options by using "Key Input" to type the number you want)

If you switch to "GSM All", you will be EDGE (2G).

If you switch to "WCDMA All", you will be on HSPA+ (3G, though AT&T and others call it 4G).

4) Power off the phone again and put your sim card back. Upon reboot you should see your new setting in effect.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] inmotion:
I get a service mode that says rat selection is restricted...

However *#*#4636#*#* will allow you to select whatever band you so choose. Although lte only doesn't allow voice calls
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] mazdamiata210:
If your sim card is out when trying to access the menu it shouldn't say restricted.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] inmotion:


Good catch, I completely missed that part of the write up
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Limeybastard:
I tried the above on my S4 and couldn't get LTE back was stuck on wcdma preferred. Google resulted in a ton of information. Ultimately hard reset needed.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] mazdamiata210:
Yeah that code doesn't work for me. It never worked for my note 2 or note 1 so I wouldn't recommend doing it.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] inmotion:
Sorry about your luck with it, I've never had a problem using it to switch between lte, wcdma, or gsm on my s4 or this note 3. Weird...
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Limeybastard:
Im stuck now, already posted another thread about this in the S4 section.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Clawz:
Works on Note 3

Thank you inmotion! This code actually worked better for me on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3. I didn't even have to pull out my SIM card or reboot. Just dial in the code, go to Device Info and change the preferred radio network type. It changes the radio on the fly in real time, and can be seen at the top. :D
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Solarenemy68:
Since Android 4.3 and on the option to disable LTE/4G has been removed from all AT&T Android devices.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Mad383Max:
Actually it was before that. Could not do it on my note 1. Would always get RAT restricted. This was on at&t. Other networks were able to use those codes and make the switch.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] John723:
1. Download the free Phone info app from the Google Play Store and install it

2. Choose the Phone Information tab and notice the "Set preferred network type" option at the bottom, marked with an arrow at the right of the drop-down menu

3. Tap on the preferred network listing currently in use, and choose the "CDMA auto (PRL)" option from the drop-down list

4. You should be now maintaining connection to only Verizon's 3G network, and whenever you need to use data, you can switch back to LTE for the duration of it

There are numerous other apps and widgets at the Play Store that claim to do the 2G/3G/4G switch, but many users on Verizon have confirmed the Phone info app to be the only method allowing them to reliably turn off the 4G LTE on their Samsung Galaxy S IIIs.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pham818:
why would people want to disable LTE? (real question)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] netnerd:
I rather disable 3g so I can stay at lte all the time!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pham818:
Thats what your phone already does...
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] netnerd:
nope. when 4g lte signal is weak, it drops to "4g".
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pham818:
yeah of course,,,, LTE is not covered in all areas....
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] shaqqq:
Does anyone know how to do a network reset? Because I connect to any Data at all no 4G LTE or 3G none of those. I can't send or receive pictures and go on the internet. I tired taking out Sim card for awhile and still didn't work. Does anyone know what to do? And how to reset network?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drtretj:
I dirty flashed Android revolution today. After the installation I rebooted and my phone just hung up on the "HTC quietly brilliant" screen for about 15 mins. I booted into Hboot and hit recovery to do a clean install, but instead it just showed the cwm screen for less than a second and spits me back out to a normal system boot, which still hangs on the HTC screen.

Tried reflashing recovery via fastboot, also tried TWRP via fastboot, still no luck. When ever I try to boot into recovery it just shows the splash screen for a second then shoots me out to a stuck HTC quietly brilliant screen.

Any Ideas?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rouz.:
Try this: fastboot erase cache

Then see if you can boot into recovery after that
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irrelephant:
Or maybe recovery got corrupted. Just fastboot flash the recovery again may be another option
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drtretj:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Celeste Amaterasu:
Hey there everyone,

Just picked up my first smartphone, and obviously the first thing I had to do with it is install a different rom. I was able to get the one from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2349077

To install just fine on my Canada SGH-I337m phone. It says one of the features of it is root privileges, and I can see SuperSU installed on the phone, but any app that actually tries to access root functions seem to just get turned away. I've tried both OpenVPN Installer and AdAway and OpenVPN is the only app that gives any helpful logs.

When I try to install it, it just fails and in the logs it's saying that /system/ is still read only even after being granted privileges by SuperSU.

Just wondering if I'm making a mistake or if I needed to do something on the phone before the root will work. I've already tried reinstalling SuperSU to no avail, and using the Motochopper root app ended up with a boot loop after it finished.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] customhdrider:
Open SuperSU and update binaries see if that doesn't cure your issue
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Celeste Amaterasu:
Yep, one of the first things I did when it didn't work was update SuperSU where it has you download/install it again from the store, which put me on version 1.65 which I believe is the latest version.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
For a Canadian phone you will need to use CF-Auto root. However, trying to root a phone that is already supposed to be rooted can cause problems. I suggest you go to the CF Auto Root thread in the Original Development section and read the thread to see if any additional information or tips are given for your situation. Also, depending on the ROM you installed, you might need to install a Kernel specific for your phone to get full functionality. Again, this can be determines by reading the thread from where you got the ROM from. Good luck.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] vk2amv:
Hi all,

My ex has a Samsung Galaxy S3 4G (i9305T Telstra Version) that after rebooting it last night is now stuck in a reboot loop.

You turn it on, it shows the first Samsung logo with the model, then it shows the Telstra bootup splash, then the Samsung logo, then it goes back to the Telstra splash, then Samsung logo, and so on and so on in a loop.

It is running the stock Telstra Jelly Bean firmware, NOT rooted or modded in any way. (I don't mind blasting away the warranty on my own devices but I prefer to leave warranty intact on devices that are not mine)

Now I can still get it into stock recovery mode (Power, vol up, and home), and can connect to it via ADB in that recovery mode.

I am hoping considering I can get into recovery mode there is some hope of recovering the photos and contacts before sending it away for warranty replacement. (I know most of the contacts are synced with the google account, but there are a bunch of contacts that did not sync for some reason)

I want to keep the warranty intact for sending it away, or at least leave no evidence of modification.

However I am happy to flash something to the phone as long as I can undo it for sending it away for warranty replacement.

Is there any way of getting access to the photos and contacts to copy them off seeing as I can at least get into the recovery menu, and get basic ADB access?

Thanks in advance for any help it will be muchly appreciated.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] vk2amv:
Ok thanks.

Looks like I was blind as a bat.

I searched the forums threads and couldn't find anything helpful, but didn't think to check the FAQ.

Looks like the answers I need are in there.

I will give it a go with the guides in the FAQ and report back if I am successful.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] GR0S:
Try making backup via recovery mode.

Contacts are synced to google, so there's is no reason to worry about them
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] vk2amv:
The FAQ's got me through.

Didn't succeed with the contacts, but got the photos which was the most important thing.

The contacts list can be reconstructed.

And to top it off after a full wipe the phone is now working again, so don't even need to bother with warranty replacement.

I also succeeded in resetting the binary counter back to 0 so if anything happens in the future it can still be returned for replacement.

I have now educated the ex on backing things up to avoid this in the future.

Ok so I know I completely missed reading the FAQ which had the answers I was after so that was bad enough.

But you win first prize in not even reading the OP and making a completely useless post as a result.

I have quoted, and made bold the relevant part of my OP.

Anyway many thanks to JJEgan for his very useful post that pointed out what I had missed, it allowed me to recover the important stuff from the phone, and the ex is very happy now.

Greetings

Research

I wanted to inform you guys about the problems in some SD-Cards while using EXT4 partition(DataOnEXT or NativeSD or A2SDx). I had used about 15 Class 4 8GB SD-Cards of different companies. Only two of them worked using an EXT4 partition which means that 15 out of 120 SDCards will work. But what I just said sounds just wrong :silly: . Then I noticed that all 4 of these were made by SanDisk and Kingston which meant I had more research to do that is why I gathered about 14 more SD-Cards made by Kingston & SanDisk from my cousins and all of them worked. Believe me, on the other SDCards Native-SD wont get past the bootanimation and if it would it would fc a lot and then hot reboot.

Conclusion

If you are buying a new SD-Card for your HD2 or any other phone please prefer buying SanDisk or Kingston. I got a 16GB SanDisk for my birthday :highfive: and now I'm using Native-SD again.

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] andrewau:
Hi,

Have a XDA O2i and I have a motorola blue tooth handsfree.

I have been using these together fine for a while now. I have also purchased Voice Command. So my mobile speaks the number calling and my calendar reminders etc via the phones speaker and never through the bluetooth which I would dearly love. Then all of the sudden the other day Voice Command started working through the bluetooth headset and I was getting the calls announced on my bluetooth and it was fantastic. Then I tried to use the XDA and the thing was locked and I needed to reset it. Once it had been reset, it went back to announcing stuff via the phones speaker. Now I know it can be done, I want to know if there is a backdoor hack that can make this permanent and keep the XDA working at the same time. Anyone here know of this.

On a further note, I think it would be even better if you could use the bluetooth to make calls through the voice command software rather than having to use the actuall phone which sort of defeats the who functionality.

Anyway any help would be great.

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] MaskedMarauder:
My headset (a Jabra) has 2 connection settings with the XDA2i.

In standby mode you get a headphones symbol on the PDA display

In active mode the headphones have lines coming out of them

To switch between the two modes on the Jabra you tap the call button on the headset.

I don't know if this will work, but give it a try.
