[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] A_youu:
Method 1

-

Does it give you 3 options to choose from (in download mode)

1) normal

2) fast boot

3) recovery mode

If so, yes I am pretty sure that this is fake/clone samsung note II.

Method 2 - via IMEI number

you can check IMEI number www.imei.info for some fake/clone phones you will noticed that it will show Nokia or some other company.

Method 3 - via Samsung Kies

Connect your phone to your PC and if samsung Kies does not detect it, then it may be fake/clone.

Hopefully, this will work for you as it did worked for me in identifying fake/clone samsung note 3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Idkwts:
If it is a fake or clone, am I unable to root ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rangercaptain:
Its not fake -- that is the stock recovery for all Samsung phones. You need to root using chainfires kernel, then flash a custom recovery. Both of these procedures involve a PC and Odin software. Everything is spelled out in several threads.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] eZdubzitmk4:
Yeah just read the stickies man

.odin takes 5 minutes to download and root.

you sure your holding down volume? Up volume is recovery down is download.

Power off phone. Then hold vol down, home, and power. Once you see logo release ONLY the power while still holding down and homs.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chandler243:
Hello everyone. Apparently, this is a fairly common issue, but I haven't seen many threads where this has been resolved (If I'm wrong, I'm very sorry). I've tried flashing back to various versions of stock, both with Fastboot, and ODIN with no luck. It seems to boil down to flashing the CDMA radio. The standard radio seems to flash fine, and even shows the baseband in Fastboot mode (However, it doesn't show it in android). CDMA acts like it flashed fine, but as soon as I reboot the device (fastboot reboot-bootloader), it goes straight back to "CDMA unknown". It should also be noted that dialing the *#06# code reveals nothing but a blank box and an OK button. I remember reading about it possibly being a corrupt EFS partition, but I'm not quite sure how to go about checking it.

Thanks in advance!

Can I update my rooted s3 to official new update on kies I dont mind if I lose my root access. Also would I lose any data on my phone or would it all be there, if not how do I make a complete backup of everything on my phone except for the root. Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrismast:
Kies should work but you are correct you will lose root. Other option would be to simply flash via Odin. For backup you could do a nandroid, Titanium Backup etc.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] SkilledDragon:
So my dad bought an HTC One off of Craigslist brand new a few months ago. Today, it randomly stopped recog izing the Sim. It turns out that the original owners decided to call in the device as stolen and got theirs replaced from their insurance. He called T-Mobile and they said that there's nothing they can do about this.

Is there any way to make the phone usable again? Changing the IMEI, flashing a custom ROM, or whatever. Everything works, except the SIM is not recognized.

Thanks for your help.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] fmedrano1977:
Your SOL. You won't get imei changing help on XDA. Advise I seen given in this situation, is to sell it overseas as it useless in AT&T too.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jawmail:
You're screwed, unlock it if you can. Hopefully it was fully paid for so you can do that, then like the other guy said sell it on Ebay to someone overseas. Be honest and say it's blocked. It will still sell. The thieves have a good racket going, and the carriers refuse to stop it by adding kill switches.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] monkeypaws:
What would adding kill switches do. ? You take your chances with buying from Cl just this last month I had two htc ones and a iPhone 5. Switched back to a used HTC one and have had no issues. I've met every one of those people at the store. The thing is the system will only grant someone a warranty or insurance claim on a device used last. If enough time passes or the other person registers a new phone the insurance/ warranty system will register a new device. Any claims on the only one will be invalid. I believe scammers are waiting just long enough before that or not registering new devices to their account so they can still claim the device as lost or stolen.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jawmail:
Kill switches would prevent the phone from being used domestically and possibly internationally. Similar to how Verizon does it by locking the phone IMEI or MEID whatever they call it on Verizon phones. If you buy one that's locked it "lost or stolen" and doesn't work on their network.

Read this, explains what might be done if the carriers agree. Right now they make too much money from insurance to care. Don't know if I can post links but Google 'cell phone kill switch'. http://www.today.com/money/push-get-kill-switch-smartphones-2D11897060
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] IAmSixNine:
I ran into this a while back with a GS3 on TMO.

Heres what usually happens. Scammer has insurance on his phone. Sells it to you. Then waits up to 30 days to file a claim. Lost / Stolen.

Once a claim has been filed they have an additional 180 days to pay the deductible and finalize the claim. Once that happens the IMEI gets entered into the system and bam you have a WiFi only device.

I went to the TMO store by my office and spoke with a manager.. The system is flawed in favor of the insurance companies and carriers.

I can prove that unit was active and in use on my account for 3 months before it got shut off. Yet TMO refuses to do anything.

I emailed Assurion twice to let them know the user who filed the IMEI as lost/stolen was performing insurance fraud and it fell on deaf ears.

Why? Because they keep selling the monthly subscription to the scammers and honest users plus they collect the deductible.

Carriers wont do anything because most of the time it forces the user who got scammed to buy buy a new phone.. Rarely will they change carriers. So TMO still gets paid.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jawmail:
Yes that is very typical. It's so sad they do not stop the theft and the fraud. It will happen it's only a matter of time.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] xile6:
Nothing you can do. Sorry but that's just how it is. I refuse to buy any phone that's not from the company I'm with. That being tmobile. That way I have a record of buying my phone and they can't block it
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Bateluer:
Sucks man.

I'd say to check your imei against the stolen registries, but that wouldn't have done you any good.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] 850csi:
If you have even a phone number or any contact information from when your dad bought the phone, you should report the seller to the FBI or your local US Attorney's Office and perhaps even attempt to file a lawsuit for fraud. I'm shocked that people are willing to commit federal crimes for $300.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jqwest:
Actually you are all wrong, Any locked/blocked/stolen/blacklisted tmobile phone be unlocked for att, Tmobile only blacklisted on there own network, I am currently using a blocked htc one that checkesnfree.com says it blocked by tmobile and it says no service when I put in my tmobile sim card, I bought an unlock code form ebay for $4 and am currently using the tmobile htc one on H2o wireless (atat) towers

works perfect
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] deathtrip:
Actually, you're mistaken.

A "blocked" device on T-Mobile is still usable on AT&T. A "blocked" device is not a blacklisted device, and therefor is eligible for use on another carrier (not MVNO of the blocked carrier).

A device can only be blacklisted if it has been reported as lost or stolen. If the device is just blocked on T-Mobile, then it wasn't reported as lost or stolen.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jqwest:
I buy used phones as a business and if a tmobile phone is blacklisted/lost/stolen/blocked for non payment. they only blackliston tmobile cell towers. This is fact any bad tmobile phone after unlocked can be used on atat regardless of imei status with tmobile, Im currently using a tmobile htc one that is blacklisted/blocked by tmobile, Im using it on atat

Hello everybody,

Please forgive me if I’ve been not able to find a correct answer to my question searching in the forum…. bun now I’m going mad, so I come with the question (on my LG G2 D802 32Gb, 1x month old, rooted with Kingo, stock ROM, w/out TWRP):

Hello,

My problem is that with my LG-G2 32Gb (model number LG-D802), only rooted, with stock rom, and only a few apps installed, I’m no longer to install applications, as the system reply with “insufficient space” error message.

Actually I’ve got removed most of the images, and no MP3 are left in the handy, but even if 20Gb on 25Gb are still free (please let me know how to get a detailed view of the used space/directories, and I’ll post it here) I cannot use them to install/update applications.

I’m able to upgrade some apps from Google store, but most of them are files below 5Mb…. Applications downloaded from Firefox, or newer install from Google Store, or applications bigger than 5Mb brings in the error message.

Please help me, I’m getting crazy!

Please do not hesitate to contact me for any question.

Best regards,

Marco.

Can someone help me please?

Thanks in advance,

Marco.

use a file size tool. Forget which one it was, but you can get all files shown with size and sort them by size wherever they reside. Then you can google which is causing this.

Obviesly everybody on this thread is trying to help you and that's cool. But I really think if you have over 20 gb of free space, I think it's something else than lack of space, I and one of my classmates have had this exact same thing in the past. Only factory reset helped :(

It starts to be tricky somehow....

Uninstalled old version of Whatsapp, than installed the latest sized 10Mb. (downloaded to download directory with Firefox), and everything went ok.

Downloaded (to download directory with Firefox) an application sized 11Mb, and installed with no issue at all.

Uninstalled gps program Navigon (now in settings/application/installed brings 3,6Gb used on 21Gb free)

Downloaded (from Google store) an application sized 5.0Mb, and error message pops up.

Downloaded (to pc, than moved do download folder) application above sized 5.0Mb, and error message pops up, so i suppose it depends not from the file size, but somehow from the application (i suppose the .apk file will be exploded to a folder that allows not enough space).

Downloaded (from Google store) an application sized 5.0Mb, and error message pops up.

Downloaded (from Google store) an application sized 5.0Mb, and error message pops up.

Downloaded (independently from folder) an application sized 1.26Mb, and error message pops up.

Downloaded (independently from folder) an application sized 13.0Mb (10x times bigger than application above) without issues!!!

Any idea on what's going on in my crazy G2 32Gb?

I had trouble restoring some MI9 system backups to MJ5. When I tried to restore them via TB, the process would just hang or say "The app is from a different ROM version..." or something like that. Maybe the problem you are having is because the apk is from a different build then the one you are running.

I just had a weird problem start the other day. I was at work and my phone constantly rebooted throughout the night. When I left for the weekend it didn't do it at all again until I was driving past where I work. And now at work again it is rebooting over and over. My phone is rooted and I am using miui rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] spyderusa11:
This has been happening to me since switching to CM11. Every day on my commute to and from work the phone reboots when I drive through a particular area. I spent two hours in that area yesterday and my phone boot looped the entire time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lookylookitzadam:
I am having the exact same problem. I thought I was going crazy, but I can literally repeat the reboots by walking to certain areas in my apartment building and on my commute to work, however not a single reboot the whole day at the office. SO STRANGE!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] maxpower12:
This is familiar to the problem I've been having on my phone running MOAR. The battery died while I was at my house and ever since I get constant reboots if I run DKP kernel, I flash the stock kernel bundled in the MOAR ROM and the reboots stop but I get not signal within a half mile or so radius of my house. I flashed back the stock ROM and modems and radios of all versions but nothing helps. I got the MSL code and did a reset via the ##786# menu but that didn't help. Sprint said it's probably a tower upgrade that's going on but other Sprint phones get signal/reception without any problem and they won't replace the phone because of a small crack on the screen.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
Do you mean ##72786# ? Did you try updating your Modem to MK3 ? You can find it HERE.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] maxpower12:
I've done both resets. There's another option in ##786# that wipes everything and reinstalls the ROM and reactivates the phone. I've tried the MK3 modem with no luck. Last night I was able to get the phone into LTE only mode in the ##3282# menu after several tries and the connection was stable, in CDMA only mode it disconnects constantly and reboots occasionally, same with CDMA/LTE mode. The problem with LTE only mode is that LTE is not available everywhere yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yodaddyleo:
Having the same issue since last week. I installed CM 10.2 and accidentally triggered the knox warranty, so can't even take it back to Sprint now. Afraid to go back to stock, as I've read that I may brick my phone. Stuck with constant reboot loop at home (unless I turn airplane mode). Has anyone found a fix? Please help... about to go to t-mobile and switch providers!

PS: Does anyone know how I can apply the ##72786# in CM 10.2? Is it possible?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] maxpower12:
I don't think dialer codes work on CM. I got the reboot loops to stop by flashing a different kernel but by doing this the phone has a very hard time keeping a connection to the tower. I noticed last night that the phone seems to have a problem connecting to LTE or eHRPD even if it's in CDMA only mode but seems fine if I go into ##DATA# and using my MSL code I change the network to EVDO only mode.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] solo_element:
I'm also experiencing similar characteristics of an on going reboot. My phone has been doing this for the past two days, I've reverted to the stock ROM, updated my PRL and yet I'm in a constant reboot. I went to Sprint and they offered to re-install the stock ROM for a fee ($75), I laughed while the friendly consultant called me an idiot for rooting my device. Anyhow, I'm all ears for a solution and in hope to get this phone working again. Last resort, I may just bite the bullet and buy an S4...
