[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scaredem23:
so i bought a T999l a few weeks ago had it unlocked, rooted and activated with my existing t-mobile account. For some reason my 4G never worked with them and after several calls they said because my phone was modified they couldn't help me basically. I started with some of the roms from this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2308514 but ended up going back to stock or prob trying to go back to stock because it still says its modified in status of phone. so i was back to 4.1.2 with uvamb7 kernel. I ended up trying sim cards from different carriers and found out that 4g works with at&t sim cards. so the other day i joined aio and finally had 4glte for the first time on this phone. As the days go by though i started noticing it wasnt keeping 4g or 4g lte when i was moving around. As a matter of fact i have to force it to go 4g or lte by either restarting and getting lucky or by using *#2263# and switching sometimes several times from only lte and gsm to automatic or all lte basebands (which gives me lte but i cant make calls or receive calls apparently) and then switching to automatic. Basically if i get lucky and its getting 4glte on automatic it will be fine until i move to a area where there is no lte then its gone until i force it to go lte again even if i get into a area that has lte/4g. Its like its not automatically detecting its in a 4g/lte area, it just stays on edge until i force it. I then tried the 4.3 rom at this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48399478. I sort of got it working but i think i might have been using the wrong kernel because whenever i restart the phone it doesnt load past the galaxy sIII splash screen. If i dont restart however it works but same issue i have to force it to detect when its in a 4g or lte area. So since that wasn't working too well i went back to the stock 4.1.2 setup. So im thinking is this an issue with my antenna or something? I'm still learning this phone so any input would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

How did you unlock it? Please share. Thanks!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] redx64:
i second this!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scaredem23:
i payed 6 bucks on ebay to have it remotely unlocked
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scaredem23:
i found a t-moblile 4.3 firmware update last night and flashed it using odin. Seems like its not rooted anymore since i'm getting the stock recovery now. I assume wipe cache partition is the same thing right? so i did that and restarted the phone. 4g lte came right up. I make a call and it drops to 4g which is fine considering before it would drop all my data during a call. Here is the thing though after the call it shows full 4g for a couple seconds then no bars, nothing. No data no network and it will consistently do this :rolleyes:. im starting to think this phone is possessed
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Adreaver:
Stop flashing stuff. Odin to stock (4.3 if you have ever flashed 4.3 via odin, 4.1.2 otherwise) and bring it in.

Also, make sure you use the right firmware, or you will hard brick. If you have never flashed 4.3 via Odin, use MB7. If you have flashed 4.3 via Odin, use MK4.

No amount of flashing random stuff will fix your nv data.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scaredem23:
I did flash MK4 and i bought this phone off ebay. I don't have a warranty with it. Where exactly am i bringing it in to?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Adreaver:
If you have the t999L it has warranty... Hasn't been out long enough for warranty to run out

Bring it in to your carrier (tmo?) And have them reprovision it. It sounds like bad nv data, and unless you have a good backup, the carrier is the only one that can fix that.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] damasta86:
I have the same issue

I have the same problem, I paid 15 dollars to the unlockpros.com to remotely unlock my T999L. they did unlock it but now 4g data in t mobile is gone, it freeces, on aTT I get 4G but it goes on and off.

I spoke to them and they tried to fix it remotely, the 4g finally appeared again on t mobile network but then after restart same problem again, no 4G data on t mobile,

does anyone has a full NV data backup that I can use to restore?

will a NV backup from another gallaxy 3 work on mines??

hope someone can help.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Adreaver:
Don't use anyone else's nv data, major problems if they turn their phone on ever, and legal issues.

Just Odin the root66 mb7 full restore. That will put you to 100% stock, but with root. You can then use triangle a way to reset the flash counter and modified status, then bring it in to tmo. Make sure to tell them not to update you, or you are stuck with the new bootloader. They might update you anyway "for your convenience", just FYI.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] RockinRita:
Anybody ever have issues with apps? I first had an issue with the stock messages app not allowing me to send out texts to a single person. Been having this issue for about 2 months. Have been in touch with T-Mobile repeatedly and they reset the signals and everything each time to no avail. Last rep I spoke with said to bring it in to a T-Mo store and get them to change out the SIM (in case that was the issue) and get them to do a back-up & reset. That too did not help. Eventually I downloaded the Google Messaging app and through that I'm able to send out normal person to person texts again but not through the stock app.

I've also got issues with apps having updated versions yet the updates aren't available in Google Play Store for me to download. For example, on June 27th, NCP Mobile came out with version 1.8, but it's still not showing. I've been in touch with the National Consumer Panel, and they say as long as I'm running Android 4.0 or higher (actually running 4.3, rooted- stock ROM) I should see the update available.

I've also been experiencing issues with Perk apps (namely Perk Browser and Perk Search & Win) not allowing me to sign in via Facebook or with email and password. Password reset links almost never get sent. The 2 times they did finally send me a reset link it directs me to the Perk homepage also on which I cannot sign in. I'm in touch with them regarding these issues too.

The last app (as of right now) that I am experiencing problems with is CSI: Crime Scene. The app doesn't allow me to connect to facebook to play with friends like I do when I'm on facebook.

Im new to this program whats good about this phone i just bought one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JustTheHustle:
Hey Guys,

Need some help. Might do a warrenty exchange.

So

Everytime I flash a file in recovery, the camera breaks. I tried TWRP latest and PhilZ latest recovery as well but no luck.

It is pretty awkward when your friend asks you to take a video and it doesn't work. -_-

Any thoughts on this?

I couldn't find anything on this in google or XDA search.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Misterjunky:
re: camera

Here is the stock-modified Samsung S4 Tmobile Jellybean 4.3 kernel.

This will fix the camera issue for you.

Only flash this if your phone is an M919 S4 otherwise you will really mess things up.

Here is the download link for the kernel in case you need it:

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23252070760972765

Flash this using twrp/cwm recovery.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JustTheHustle:
Thanks man!. Would this kernel work with international roms as well? Want to make sure before I get a bootloop. And yeah I have a m919. Loving it.

Thanks man!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Misterjunky:
re: kernel

I am not sure about it working with the international variants of the M919 But if you make a nandroid

backup before flashng this modified kernel into an international phone then there is no harm done

even if it does not work with it.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JustTheHustle:
Im going to look into it with the new rom updates that require clean flashing. Give me an oppritunity. Will make a backup of the rom before i do the deed. :laugh::good:Thanks Man!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] whisky_:
When I open the camera application on my I-mate JAM/HTC Magician, the screen goes bright for a second when the camera app. is about to open but it goes back to slightly dull after i close the camera.

I have maximum brightness in the settings.

Is there anyway to make the screen stay bright just like the second before the camera opens?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] vijay555:
There are at least a couple of ways to do this.

One is VJLumos, which I don't recommend.

Another is VJLumos II - which is being released in a few days.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] whisky_:
Thank you! Awaiting the release of VJLumos 2. How soon do you reckon you'll release it?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] vijay555:
Magician version is done, and works great. Just tweaking the Universal version (which also works, but needs a little refining). Release hopefully around this weekend or so.

I don't have a wizard so can't support it for now, unfortunately.

Implementation is cool now, automatic superbrite every time you switch on, and no more risk of a hard reset :shock: I was showing Mrs Vijay555 yesterday. She wasn't impressed :( I'm so misunderstood...

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] whisky_:
oh lol sigh. I had a look at your site...people should praise your talent more often :D

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Chatty:
Announcement!

Hi,

I've been investigating in the brightness hack and could finally track down what's necessary to enable it. This is the real way to enable it, which means no unneccessary DLLs are loaded and you're no chance of risking a soft reset because of this. The other advantage is that if you have your camera hardware removed this hack still works - on a Magician at least. I hope I can try this hack on a Hermes next week (don't own one).

I'm almost done creating an app like VJLumos II. If it's ready I'll post it in this forum.

Cheers.

PS: I was experiencing a hard reset during my research... so I hope you can esteem what I immolated ;)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Chatty:
Ok, here it is.

For the moment this is for Magician only! And even on them you run this at your own risk!

This app is very freaky - it has no (obvious) dependencies and therefore

loads fast like hell

. Although being already

ruddy slim

and thus perfect staying resident it doesn't. But it accepts four parameters which are as follows:

on --> enable SuperBrightness

off --> disable SuperBrightness

install --> install a OnWakeUp event

remove --> remove event

Again: this app does not load anything (and consume memory) nor does it expose you to risk a soft reset.

Nevertheless I still encouter the odd behaviour, that Magicians

without the camera hardware

do not get superbright on WakeUp.

No problems here - got a zip with one exe and 4 lnk's as it was supposed to.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Chatty:
Some news about our backlight:

Well, above a certain a minimum level brightness can be controlled continously from dark to (super-)bright. Keypad light can be controlled independently, but on/off only. Another news: absolute minimum is still a little darker than official (Control Panel) minimum. So if you're in for a little book reading under your blanket this could safe your eyes a little more. So currently I'm thinking of a new cmdline app which offers you to set brightness in all possible levels (super-dark to super-bright).

I dunno when I'll find the time for it, but is anyone interested at all?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] whitemoo:
pick me!

heheh, i use msn messenger and type up notes in the dark, it strains the eyes. Sometimes i watch movies on it in plain darkness.

Would be a cool utility to have. Dont know if anyone doese the same things i do, Since its so hard to sync for me through bluetooth.

Bring on the interest!.

Whitemoo.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Chatty:
I got a wicked idea: how about flashing a new brightness dll into the living device like it is done with the splash screen? The usual brightness control panel applet would then operate in the wider range and this hack would not eat up any memory.

Whohoo... exciting... lots of work to do, but interesting project.

Thanks for the help. Rebooting didn't help so I reinstalled the app and engaged all system notifications I thought would apply, and it still didn't work.

I would like to sell my N2 for a reasonable price, but not get ripped off at the same time.

The device was only used for a total of 3 months...

HOWEVER, it has a tiny crack next to the captivate buttons which is easily covered by a case...

The crack is not even on the digitizer/ screen viewing part.

& the issue is, whoever I show to trade/ sell use that as a major bargaining point, and I really dont care to waste my time with that or fixing it to get a better price.

I just want to unload this thing as quick as possible at a decent rate....cause my wife got me a N3 for xmas...and we need the money.

Thanks for any help/ tips/ ideas...

:good::good::good::good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkshado:
Damage is damage is damage... It renders the "three months use" positive point you had kinda moot. (Sorry.)

Depending on the shape of the crack and its direction there's always a concern that it could spread.

FWIW, LNIB/BNIB Note 2s are advertised for 350-400$ in my local classifieds, check your market and adjust accordingly. (Without having seen said crack, I'd w.a.g. at 275-300$ for yours.)

Try emphasizing its legitimate provenance by supplying proper documentation? Blacklisted IMEIs are a growing concern after all.

Take multiple, clear pictures for your ad, lets would-be buyers know what they're getting into. (Too many browse these things like inattentive idiots, but it can't hurt in filtering out some people.)

Best of luck,

Sooooooo I tried to root and run cm7 on my LG optimus 2X phone on wind mobile (P999), I think its the same as the T-mobile G2x

I'm a complete noob at this and I probably screwed stuff up and now All I get when I try to turn my phone on is the LG logo, and then another LG logo (looks a bit more upgraded - probably from me partially upgrading it).

I rooted the phone

and then I tried to do the other stuff to run gingerbread on it and it was so complicated and now i'm stuck.

I installed LG support tool, and at first that told me I had no upgrades available, so I decided to root the phone via SuperOneClick....

and then after that I screwed up in places I think. I installed ROM manager on my phone same with another app, I think Titanium Backup, but everything got to complicated for me in between and after (lol)

so now I'm stuck and my phone is eternally on the lg logo.

I want to just get my phone back even if it's not on gingerbread, even a factory reset would be good - since I backed up my files in my computer.

For less than $25. It's worth more like $100. Below is a link to it. Just wanted to share. It took about 10 days for the case to arrive. WOW this case is great! Nice leather smell too.What I really like about this case compared to other leather cases is the fact that it does not cover any part of the screen, leaving nothing to obstruct your swipes.
