I did tell you what Roms will work ALL JFLTESPR and JFLTE if they didnt work I would have said it but your to hung up to listen I'm sorry your just to lazy to see that. We are not being jerks your being lazy. If I wanted to be a jerk I would have never given you the info to root your phone or given you a guide that works. But you come in here DEMANDING everything and not even asking nicely once. So if you want to check your attitude and come back later that's fine. And it makes me wonder if you are here on a different name and account like you said, cause you got banned.

Does it matter if my ROM is not stock but deodexed? Also mind sharing a link to the stock recovery? Didn't see it in OP.

Never mind, made myself a stock recovery according to method in #974.

Nice try, but things are more complicated than that because ROM compatibility is not only model related, but also modem related. As an example from my experience, Sacs_Custom_Rom_V3_NG2_9_24_14 V4 doesn't work with NG5 with wifi issue. Ktoonsez kernel used to fix the wifi issue, but unfortunately it doesn't get along with NG5. But it seems Ktoonsez kernel works well on NC6. So L720T with NC6 might have a shot with that ROM.

I guess what we need here is a collective effort to report every working/non-working/work-around ROM you tried with detail info including modem version to someone, like OP, then OP can update OP with the info he/she received. Or is there a way to create a wiki page so that everyone can contribute directly?

Correct that's why I stated about TW earlier its a hardware/driver issue even if you flash a tw rom from our phones if baseband don't match with drivers same issue like nc6 and ng5 no WiFi if mixed up nc6 needs nc6 rom ng5 needs ng5 rom this is not like the s3 where you can mix match but that's TW that's why I don't flash it.

Hey [MENTION=4590326]bthorne79[/MENTION] im not sure if you remember but I made a post a while ago about me porting the Eclipse rom to our device, but ended up going on vacation but took a hit at it last night & redid everything & so far I got it working as a daily, data works, mms works, I havent even used wifi yet jist to see how good the data would hold up & so far so good, well to me atleast, but anyway, you told me if I wanted everything to show up as sprint, I had to edit the eri.xml & the apns.xml from the framework.res.apk (which I learned to do last night, was very happy with myself) but what I ended up doing was copying the eri.xml from your posted stuck & recompiled & everything, which I believe did work for the most part, when I go to ybe about phone section, it shows up as sprint now, but the only area that isnt showing sprint is the pull down bar at the bottom, which I actually got over just by using Wanam & editing those, but just incase no one wants to use wanam, can I share the decmpiles framework.res.apk to you so you can edit it for me? & send it back? or can I jist post the whole rom for you so you can help on what im prop missing, because i'm not really sure what to write, like I mentioned earlier all I did for that was used the eri.xml from our device

help.

I need a little help... I rooted the l720t that i have, and followed to instructions here to sim unlock it (i'm trying to use a tmobile sim card) and it still keeps telling me that the mobile network is not available. I checked everything in the device information, it no longer says anything about sprint and has been downgraded to MK5. Everything just says unknown. Did i do something wrong or is there something else I need to do to be able to use it thru tmobile?

Need advanced help with L720T

I have a L720T and I am in the USA and want to use it as a ATT Gophone. I unlocked it with ssu and changed the band selection in the service menu to GSM only and it did work for one evening. I did root it with the Cf auto root file and root checker said it was rooted. Then we wanted the previous owners number out of the settings and sprint had me to go in and reset something in the scrtn screen or something like that and when it restarted there was no signal and a red x by the signal bars. CDMA mode shows strength fine. It says it is unlocked. Sprint says it is unlocked. I have master resetted it and still says invalid sim card. ATT had me go in and get another sim, it says the same thing. Sorry for such a long post. Will someone please show me or tell me what files and the exact steps to do for it to work in the USA. Please reply soon.

Making the volume louder - HELP!!!

Hello,

Has anyone figured out how to hack a rooted SPH-L720T to boost the phones speaker, headset, bluetooth etc. volume? It seems like people are able to hack the non-triband model but not the "T"

( For example something similar to this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2589408 )

*** Please help! Love the phone but the volume is just so soft, when it rings I end up missing calls and the Bluetooth, Headset, and In-Call Volume also really need a boost and without using an APP. I have tried apps to no avail so there must be a hack out there. If the SPH-L720 can be then the L720T should be able to be hacked too, especially if the phone is rooted! ***

THANKS!!! :cool:

Yeah it definitely could use a boost for the earpiece, bluetooth, and headphones. Like I said before, I would even be willing to donate to someone if they can figure out and make a .zip flash that works to boost these and the instructions on what values to change also.

It looks like NK1 was released at the same time as NG5. Even though it says it's for Sprint, it's probably for one of Sprint's MVNO's (Boost, Ting, Virgin Mobile, etc.) version of the 720T.

At the bottom of the op of that thread, it says " You can also play around with some of the other "digital volume" values under the other headers .. such as "headset device", etc."

Notice the word headset. Perhaps playing with this value will increase the volume on the headset when you hold the phone to your ear. I'm just not sure I want to overlay a Sprint file with a vzw (Verizon wireless) gs4 file even though jdonmc1948 says it worked perfectly for at least his speaker on the back of the phone.

I'm going to give it some thought and look for other ways. It may be possible to edit that value from in idone galaxy tools or with any text editor.

Mine is a Sprint phone and there's no problem. I'm playing with some of the other volumes now and will report back. It is a Verizon file, but the hardware that it controls is the same on both phones. It only controls the "sound card" and sets max limits.

Quick question: I have NC6 rooted using Towelroot. I have been ignoring the NG5 System update message because I haven't wanted to root again and trip Knox (probably silly, I know), but now I have this Security policy updates thing and I want to know if I should let it install.

Will it kill my root?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bgmg:
It will almost certainly kill your root. You can either A) update, re-root, and trip knox or B ) stay on nc6 and hide the update notification using the notify clean module of wanam mentioned in the post one.

For now, I personally use option B.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bgmg:
You could also try this to save root before the upgrade and restore root after the upgrade:

I'm off my game, how can I flash the recovery.img? I'm used to tars for Odin and Zips for recovery. I used to use img's for fastboot with HTC devices.

Will the following command work from a rooted command prompt? dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21 (this assumes I have the recovery.img on the root of my sdcard). I'm not sure if that block is correct as it is for the SPrint S4 from TWRP which was originally done for the L720, not L720T

Edit In: Did a little digging and found the partition blocks for the L720T, they matched, so the dd command worked to flash the recovery.img
