[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] en11gma:
how about you just read the freaking first post

you can clearly tell you havent read crap

POST #1

tells you about the exact problem you are having trying to see the correct info in *#0011#

everyone who reads what you wrote about *#0011# is gonna laugh at you for demanding info and tuts when you havent even read the 1st freaking post!!!!

not in this thread but DOMESTIC UNLOCK

its always at the top in the threads in the forums....it might even be a sticky
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dragonhart6505:
Edit: NVM, got it working, cept i kept it on stock. thanks for the tut, its better when its clearer.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] en11gma:
i started out thinking the thread i was in was that domestic sim unlock

there are 3 threads you really want

1st

sim unlock international (that has the unlock.exe)

2nd

domestic sim unlock (that one tells you what to do with *#0011#

3rd

this one :)

i have those 3 tabs open quite a bit

on a side note

when we install those tmobile romz they are doing something (correct) to the *#0011# area and maybe something else

we should just be able to flip flop with some simple script

shouldnt have to restore romz

but hey at least we got something
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dragonhart6505:
Yknow, i think thats the very first useful thought towards dual booting ive seen yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] en11gma:
lol

yep it is dual booting :)

do it on my linux / windows pc all the time

but the thing is...these settings are in *#9090# and a little simple script should be able to do this on the fly
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dragonhart6505:
Oh trust me I do as well. Can't go without my Linux lovin' ^_^ as this was a pain in the arse but now super easy, I can't wait to do it again.

<3 bein a nerd lmao

Also, OP, since I havent found one yet (and making tuts is kinda my thing) mind if I make one? With all credits where due of course
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
Have at it man..I'm not so good it making tuts. :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
From my previous testing, TW rom dialer is better in handling GSM technologies. Therefore, you don't need to do these steps. The link to the original Unlock thread will give you more information in terms of what to do with TW.

ROMs

Hi everyone,

I live in Asia, and this post was a lifesaver for me because I was pulling my hair out over why I wasn't receiving calls.

In terms of ROMs, however, I've had some issues that I wanted to ask about (I've followed the instructions above to the dot).

Here are ROMs that work (for the most part):

Cyanfox (some freezing, halo issues)

Here are ROMs that have issues:

Gummi (Won't mount my external SD card)

Omni (Won't mount my external SD card)

Cyanogenmod (Crashes, can't install apps, bunch of other problems)

AOKP (No wifi, crashes, etc.)

I currently have MJA baseband. Any thoughts? Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nemofbaby2010:
Load a sprint s4 kernel that fixed my issues also you should add this to the op
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] edlee:
Shouldn't the Issue with not receiving of calls on gsm be reported to aosp devs, so a fix can be made for all ROMs based of it.

I love aosp, but I use my device on sprint when I'm here, and i want to use local sim when I travel, until I noticed I wasn't receiving calls. And I was hoping the wouldn't mean I would have to flash files and such.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
Glad you got it working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] moomoobaabaa:
Report

I would love to report it to the devs so that I don't have to keep pasting the Sprint boot into the T-mobile version of the ROM. Pretty new to rooting and such, any suggestions as to where I might report it to?

Kernel

Thanks for getting back to me. When you say load the stock Sprint kernel, do you mean take it from the stock ROMs?

Also, if you use the Sprint Kernel, do you still put it into T-mobile ASOP ROMs as described above, or are you using Sprint ROMs.

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] noobnl:
no a bad idea

The fix is removing the newDriverCall in build.prop

Domestic or Intl?

If I understand correctly, this is for domestic unlocked Sprint GS4 to be used on domestic carriers. I got my GS4 unlocked and the phone reads European SIM card. But how can I test if it will work when I go over to Europe? I would hate to be in a position where I have unlocked phone in France but can't receive calls. I am on AOSP KK 4.4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
I was thinking you can order the European SIM ahead of time and send it over to your USA address. There, you can pop it in and use Skype or Google Voice for cheap rate to make a test call to that new SIM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mocoyombiflash:
got it working running edge only what can i do to run better speeds?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bonusbuy2:
non-Sprint rom on Sprint phone

Well, I do have European sim card but I cannot get it to work. I'm runing Sprint CDMA rom, but the sim card is for GSM network. My phone reads the sim and I can look at it. However, the phone is working on SPRINT network. I guess the question is: can I install non-Sprint ROM to see if I can call using my European sim card? Which one would be the safest ROM to install?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mocoyombiflash:
You need custom rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
I would say follow my tutorial and try out Gummy rom, so far I've tested few others (SlimKat -- not working, Paranoid -- not working) and I think Gummy is the best of them all. Give it a shot.

Also make sure you follow the same exact steps in the Unlocking SIM thread.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nemofbaby2010:
I've used paranoid and slim successfully using your guide
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nemofbaby2010:
Also I noticed I can flash most T-Mobile touchwiz Roms without edits, same with google edition roms
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
Yep, I did try again shortly after by using Sprint KToonz kernel on both Slim and PA, both worked flawless. Initially, I used slim's version of sprint kernel and ironically it didn't work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
Yeah if the updater-script has not "assert" statements then you should be good to flash without mods.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bonusbuy2:
My sim is unlocked, so that's out of the way. Downloaded both Gummy ROMS. Will try over the weekend.

Now, if I do what suggest in the original post, is it possible that my Sprint Galaxy S4 will work on T-Mobile here in the US?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
Yep, you should be able to assuming you have valid APNs and such.

I have run both att & tmobile sims on my sprint gs4 and worked like a charm. In fact it worked so well that I even cancel my contract with Sprint and paid the freaking ETF cuz I save more in the long-term.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nemofbaby2010:
I canceled sprint two weeks ago and I'm happier with T-Mobile
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bonusbuy2:
For $50 I got 4G unlimited data where I live. Never had any issues even when I go over 10Gb each month. TMobile is really slow where I'm at. So for me, it would not make sense to switch. What I hate is the fact that I have to juggle CDMA (for US) and GSM (for when I travel). I just hate having two phones. If this unlock really works, then I'll be happy camper in Europe and Asia.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] conflikt:
This will allow you to run gpe edition with updates? Also if I use the tutorial will itow me to stay on sprint only and not gsm or some other CDMA like boost? Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nemofbaby2010:
Idk, about using gpe on sprint but I'm using it on T-Mobile all you have to do is flash the zip you don't have to modify anything
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] moomoobaabaa:
Disable newDriverCall

Thanks for getting back!

Do you mean to say that if we disable newDriverCall, we won't have to download t-mobile roms any more--that we can just download the correct Sprint roms and change this one setting to receive calls?

How do I disable newDriverCall?

Thanks again!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] edlee:
In build.prop remove the part that says newdrivercall and restart.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] moomoobaabaa:
Buildprop

Ok, so to be clear:

In buildprop editor there's ro.telephony.ril.v3, under which there's newDriverCall. If I click on that, I can edit both values. You're telling me to delete the newDriverCall line, save, and reboot right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] moomoobaabaa:
Remove newDriverCall

So I installed Cyanogenmod for Sprint and deleted the "newDriverCall" line and restarted, but that didn't solve the problem. I calls still didn't show up when people called, though it rang on their end. To reiterate, the t-mobile fix works fine, but I still don't understand why the Sprint Roms won't receive calls when using a SIM card.

---------- Post added at 11:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ----------

When you're replacing the Kernel, are you taking the TKoonz kernel and replacing the t-mobile boot file with it? Or are you flashing it after you've installed the t-mobile rom with the sprint boot like in the original instructions?

ROMs

Hello people. is there any stock roms that someone has modified to work on Sprint S4 after unlocking it (ie at&t or tmobile)? can someone poit to any. thanx
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
For stock rom, you don't need to run any GS4 variant from another providers like ATT or Tmobile because with stock touch wiz roms, the dialer can handle both GSm and CDMA calls without issues. This AOSP is a work-around of that dialer hang up issue as stated in OP or if you don't like stock roms to begin with.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
yep, I have slimkat rom (4.4.2) running for a month now and no issues. Very stable everything seems to work fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] edlee:
Do all current aosp ROMs have this issue still?

I used to have a photon, and there was an aroma option at the time of install that let you select if you wanted to run gsm or cmda.

It would be great if someone could look at some of th3bills github and see how he did it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
What issue are you referring to? If you mean the dialer doesn't hang up in GSM mode then, using custom GMS-based AOSP roms will solve this issue. Hence, my OP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] edlee:
Thank you, I know about this, and I appreciate all the tips you have given.

But I tend to switch back and forth from cdma and gsm, and it would be more convenient if there was an aroma option built into the aosp rom to select gsm or cdma.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] vboyz103:
Have you tried running a GSM rom and swithc the network to CDMA and see if dialer hangs up correctly on CDMA call? Just a thought!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] wasidremin:
unified CM11

Hi all,

Do we know how to get this to work since CM11 now uses the same ROM for all jflte devices? I installed it straight up and am having the hang up/not receiving call error

Update:

After looking into the updater script I found the line of code that copies CDMA or GSM files to system. For the sprint device I made it copy the GSM files instead of the CDMA. If you are looking to do this this is all you change:

from:

ifelse(is_substring("L720", getprop("ro.bootloader")), run_program("/sbin/sh", "-c", "busybox cp -R /system/blobs/cdma/* /system/"));

to:

ifelse(is_substring("L720", getprop("ro.bootloader")), run_program("/sbin/sh", "-c", "busybox cp -R /system/blobs/gsm/* /system/"));

Hope this helps someone.

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ajent:
I'm glad you posted this, I didn't know what the hell was making the phone not receive calls. Just grabbed a unlimited data ATT plan from someone, will use your trick to install AOSP. :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Roxisayshi:
Just followed the updated OP and it works like a charm. I am able to hang up and also receive calls. I am on SlimKat ROM with ChronicKernel which is also very useful. Link is here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2363146

So no need to remove the boot img from TMO ROM, after flashing TMO ROM and gapps, I flashed this Kernel which took care of everything by its own. ChronicKernel has many additional features that are good to have. Cheers!

He was referring to after you actually unlock the modem. If you do international and domestic unlock, what he was telling you about setting it to gsm only will make sense.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sirhc:
Yea on the LG G2 with sprint you dont need international unlock first. You can simple just flash a rom and switch to GSM only but the samsung devices are completely different obviously :P. More steps you would have to take.You would have to be international unlocked first but If im not mistaken ive seen a dosmestic unlock thread on here somewhere with some success.

Reporting back

Thank you, for the information.

I am using LiquidSmooth v3.0 (dated May 13th), by just editing updater-script ('cdma' to 'gsm' for L720 line). Works great for me, for both voice and data, for t-mobile. I cannot use any later versions of LiquidSmooth (or other CM/CM-derived builds) since the Bluetooth is broken in them. I cannot get the July/August builds to auto-play (Smart Audiobook player) on reconnect and the later ones even fail to reconnect!

Also, bAnks Gapps (my favourite: minimal) were the best. I am going to miss them. :(

When trying to make the GSM work on the Omni, I found a easy solution for this issue: Just copy the GSM lib (in /system/blobs/gsm/*) of the Omni ROM to /system/, and it worked.

(((dear developer,

I have a

Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch

This device completely stopped working and no longer capable of being opened again at that time ,later i went to the engineer in charge who did a " ........ " which it returned to work as it was .

after that, i started to download files from network , and during the downloading,it suddenly stopped again. I returned it to the engineer to fix the problem that occurred during loading . he fixed it , but this time when I wanted to use it , I discovered that the " logo" is for another device , namely Samsung I9100 Galaxy S II , not mine 1

I think that my device were charged with " bootloader " Other than that allotted to mine!

Now , the device works with me naturally , but I am having some problems which are as follows :

1 - its not capable to charge when it is off , and it appears to me that it fails every time i try to link it to its charger ! It then goes on to state the case for the recovery mode each time , and then I restart it which goes back to work as usual.

2 - I noticed a difference between the previous state and now in terms of the quality of the work and also problems in charging .

NB:i downloaded a new "Karnel" and and " Bootloader " but that did not work too !

After all what i have wrote to you dear, I want to know ,am i gonna be able to reload the " Flash " without needing "Riff box" ,

Any directly from my computer ?

What if i kept it on its current status , is there any damage to my device now or later? ?

i really need your help ,

Thank you ))))

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FletchF:
I've seen some discussion suggesting that they simply check for a browser desktop user-agent. Some have suggested that, due to this, tethering with an android tablet doesn't count as tethering. Others have said this untrue or only partially true.

Has anyone tested with different user agents to see what is counted as tethering and what is counted as mobile data?

Even if this is true, what about email and other non-http data use? How does T-Mobile determine whether it is normal data or tethering data?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitemare3219:
I called T-Mobile and asked this exact question. A female tried to elicit a witty response of their network being notified when the app is used, and it counts data used from thereon out as tethering. So I then asked how it detects whether or not the data usage comes from the phone or tethered device when the hotspot is on... she basically said it just does.

That was a load of crap. I used my Nexus 10 on my Nexus 4's hotspot for three months. I had unlimited 4G data and 2.5GB of hotspot data. I don't know if any of this accrued as hotspot data, but they never cut off my service or redirected me to purchase more - so I would say it only picked it up as an Android device, or the phone itself, and did not count the data.

Even using a laptop, it only was able to detect web browsing as hotspot data usage. I could still play games online and such even after hitting the limit.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krabman:
Somewhere around 4.1.2 Google added flags to tethered traffic on stock android per carrier request that allows the carriers to see tethered traffic and then do what they want with the flagged traffic, upcharge for tethering, block it, etc. Or of course do nothing. These are often removed in the roms as the part of the feature you see as "added tethering".
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharkoparko:
agent

I have unlimited Tmo. sometimes going to 40-50GB per month. I use my laptop at various location with the phone tethering. I use Chrome UA Spoofer (user agent), and change it on my laptop when i want to use it thru the phone. it has some limitations, bu tit is on case by case(i.e. site by site case). It works
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FletchF:
I should also note that, according to T-Mobile, if you are on the unlimited plan you will never be cut off or see the upsell page if you go over. If you go over the 2.5G of hotspot data, you will be throttled to 2G speed for the remainder of the month.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
tmobiles plans all include tethering/hotspot. all besides the completely unlimited high speed data include unlimited tethering. the unlimited high speed data plan include 2.5gb tethering with an option to purchase 2 more gb at $15.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RussianBear:
They've definitely changed something in the past month or two. I was able to tether to my ipod w/o any issues. I hit my 500mb limit today. I figured, no big deal, will just fire up my vpn (L2TP) from the ipod. Done deal, right? Nope. They can still detect it somehow.

I will have to check it out on my pc. I have a hunch they can somehow tell that tethering is enabled on the phone.
