[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jiijima:
Thanks Vincom for the post! I wish I had read this before I payed ebay for an unlock code though.

And I have not had any luck for AT&T providing me with an unlock code either. My contract was up so legally they should have given it to me, but since the Skyrocket is an AT&T exclusive phone they said unlock codes did not exist.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] les_garten:
I've unlocked every phone I've ever had with ATT with an ATT provided code until this one. I've unlocked them long before the contract was up.

I just call them up and tell them I am traveling and have to use a Local SIM while I'm traveling.

As usual I called them and they gave me the code for this phone, it did not work. I had to go through the unlock here.

Did your Ebay code work?

It's strange because I've never had any issues with ATT unlock codes till I got to this one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jiijima:
My Ebay code worked. I am on T mobile now and getting LTE/HSPA+.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Vhanuman:
Great work. Thanks for the instructions. Worked out perfectly

I tried with T-Mobile Sim (as phone is from At&T). After reboot with Stock ROM (provided in the instructions) it asked me for network unlock key. So I entered the one I received from AT&T and it worked. After reflashing the backed up ROM everything is working great

Thanks again for your effort. Appreciate it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Djeloan:
Hey, maybe it's dumb question , maybe it's not , but can i use this way to unlock any other phone? Or it's just for skyrocket?

Thanks :o
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
rom for the unlock procedure is for the skyrocket, flashing it on another phone is at users risk of bricking

Am thinking of getting an unlocked one.. I had an imei erased o ce on galaxy ace.. Is there a way to back up imei just in case??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
afaik its in the efs partition, maybe some else will confirm

howto backup/restore efs
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] raptorddd:
I tought it was a one click procedure.. I sont know what adb is. I know is a command thingy.. I used terminal once.. I really dont understand command stuff. If i use terminal i have to compyall the 4 commands lines. And paste them on terminal.. One by one or all at the same time... I have to use those lines..

To restore it has an example.. Do i have to do the same for each comand line.. If its the same lines that would back up and restore. They should have the restore commands complete. Its pita to do on cell..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
You can do it from a command prompt on your pc. You don't have to do it from a terminal on your phone. With you phone booted up and connected to your pc's usb. Just issue the command:

adb shell

Then follow the rest of the commands, one line at a time with a return after each command.

You'll need adb on your pc. Google 15 second adb install xda.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
twrp does do a efs backup, but i never needed to do a efs restore so not quite sure what it contains

The beginning of your post is way too funny. Thanks for taking your time to make it easier for people.

I used the OTHER Original thread and although it wasn't as informative, it was very easy to do.

I did mine in the first go, but I did not dump the original EFS. No big deal.

I also turned SHA256 back to ON before you Flash another ROM and Modem. Not sure if it was needed but I did it anyway.

---------- Post added at 03:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 PM ----------

You need the Proper stock rooted ROM and Radio for THAT OTHER phone, however the procedure itself is not much different.

Thanks! After spending almost a week trying to get my unlock code from AT&T I unlocked my phone in about 20 minutes. The only issue I encountered, was that unlocked phone would not reboot - rebooting resulted in the phone just sitting there forever with the black screen. Reflashing ROM fixed that.

Stuck

My Baseband is I727UCLE2 but I've only been able to find two places that claim to have this but one is a bad link and the other is a dead link. Anyone know how I should proceed? This is with an AT&T I727.

Thanks

Edit: Decided just to jump to the latest stock ROM. Wife gets a nice upgrade.

FWIW, the phone appeared to work fine with the RADIO and ROM it was flashed with. Could probably have just left it. The phone was having issues in any case. It will be interesting to see if the upgrade helps.

no service/no sim

hi guys,

I followed this method to unlock my sgh-1727r and everything went moderatly smoothly and in the end i was successful. So i reinstalled my backup and when i got back in my phone i at first it said no sim so i was like ok. I turned it off took out the sim, put it back in and powered it on. Ihad service at this time, it was about half bars, but while using it would say no sim or drop service then come back on. was kinda worried but put it in the back of my head as i thought mabie it was the weather and location im in and today was just a bad service bad. but about a few hours into using my phone it just stopped working. currently it says no service and will say no sim occassionally but my service is not coming back at all like before. Ive tried connecting to diffrent apn's and went on rogers to see if my apn info was correct and it all was. So now im stuck with no service and im rather worried as I do need it for work. Thanks guys, i look forward for your input.:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phylum:
I apologize if this isn't the appropriate place for this question. Its not necessarily a Nexus 5 spetcific question as it also involves an Asus TF300T.

I'm currently in a hotel with not only spotty WiFi coverage but also really awful throughput.

I have about 8GB of data I want to transfer to my Asus TF300T running 4.2.1.

I started with airdroid then WiFi File Transfer but it seems the WiFi network blocks access between devices; well at least on ports 1234, 4567 and 8888.

I then tried WiFi Direct but it looks like they (Asus) removed that feature in the last upgrade. Boo.

Finally the TF300T has a keyboard dock with a USB port but when I plug in the N5 (either in MTP or PTP) the TF300T doesn't 'see' the storage.

Uploading to Dropbox from the N5 then downloading to the TF300T would take several days at this rate. If I fellback on LTE, I would eat through the rest of my data plan and the month is young!

There are other applications out there but they're sketchy or questionable at best, and I don't want to load those types of applications on my rooted devices, hence why I'm reaching out to the community for advice / suggestions.

Thanks all

Install this and run on host device: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.xeustechnologies.android.kws

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glorenzo7mm:
Fast file transfer
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bower95:
To avoid the connection problems, create a hotspot on your nexus 5 and connect the tablet to it (when i do this i leave mobile data off just in case, so the tablet and phone will simply be in a LAN together), then use whatever program youd like to transfer through LAN. For example ES file manager has a built in LAN transfer function and ive gotten speeds up to 2mb per second with the nexus as the host sending the file.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phylum:
WiFi File Transfer seems to do the exact same thing.

kWS seems to use port 8080 by default and that doesn't work. I've tried other ports with no luck.

We're on the same subnet but neither device can ping the other so I guess they've done a good job at setting it up so that machies cannot communicate with each other?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phylum:
Yeah, that sounds like a winner right there. I'll try and update with my findings.

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdapimp:
Must be a firewall correct try another port such as UDP port 53 (DNS) or TCP port 22 or 21 (SSH) or try 80 (HTTP) usually HTTP wont be blocked

Mobile Hotspot Winner

Setting up a mobile hotspot did the trick! I was able to use all the apps but file transfers never finished. (most of the files are a few hundred megs)

I'll just wait until I get to a better location or try again when I have a bit more time.

I'll also try using common ports like 53 and 22, 23 etc to see if that helps while on this network.

Thanks all for your advice on this.

Good evening,

I’ve recently updated the rom of my HTC Prophet to the following rom: _818Pro_2151324_21513104_21721_DOP_Taiwan_CHT_Ship, which was taken from the FTP pf xda-developrs.com, and everything turned out ok, but the problem comes up when the pocket reboots and everything shows up written in Chinese. I’ve tried to update the rom to the following: JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_shi, but when th process reaches 95% the following error shows up: ERROR 326 : INVALID COMAND

Does anyone have the solution for this problem When I try again with the Chinese rom the pocket pc accepts it.

[Off-topic] kibermaster:
You've declared "strLowerCase" as constant, so you can't assign a value to it, you can only read it. So, the working code should look like this:

Public Class DemoUpper

Private Sub btnDisplay_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btnDisplay.Click
Dim strLowerCase1 as string
Const strLowerCase As String = "visual basic"
strLowerCase1 = strLowerCase.ToUpper
txtOutput.Text = strLowerCase1
End Sub
End Class

But also you can make it shorter like this:

Public Class DemoUpper

Private Sub btnDisplay_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btnDisplay.Click
Const strLowerCase As String = "visual basic"
txtOutput.Text = strLowerCase.ToUpper
End Sub

[Galaxy Note 3 General] J3ff:
First off, I love my note 3. This phone is so close to perfect I can't bear the fact that I broke it somehow.

After having no case/screen protector since I got this phone.. sometime end of summer.. I bought my first case off of amazon. I received it YESTERDAY.. today.. while it was in the case, in my back pack (in a nice "protective" pouch that is lined with soft cloth) somehow it cracked the lcd screen (or digitizer) but the GLASS IS NOT CRACKED. Infact there's no physical damage to the phone at all, no dents or scratches anywhere on the phone at all, even looking at the screen under a light. Nothing on the glass.

SO I'm heart broken. It's my secondary phone so I have no insurance on it.

What would you do ? It's a sprint phone.. black.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] TrompKramer:
You have to replace your complete screen.

It's called a full assembly.

You can't just replace you lcd alone.

They cost around $200.

Try parts4repair.com

I repair alot of phones and this site always has the best quality.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Spere:
So you can not see any damage on phone? How about warranty?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] senectus:
this

if you cant see any drop mark then warranty it like a baws :)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] J3ff:
There's no damage at all, not even a slight scratch. I'm actually a little curious how it happened.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Spere:
So it can really be some fault in phone that'll go under warranty :) have you tried resetting phone if it's some software fault / bug?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] J3ff:
Yes.. you can see the top third of the screen for a minute or two, then it goes black/digital looking (8 bit graphics) and then eventually joins the bottom of the screen - being broken.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] J3ff:
Actually - I looked at it under the light, if you hold it up to your eye level you can see a cracked digitizer :(
[Galaxy Note 3 General] xclub_101:
You can probably still use it with the S-pen :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] senectus:
if there is no obvious damage such as a mark where is bounced on the ground or a crushed screen, i'd warranty it.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] altimax98:
Isn't the Note a bit large to place in your back pocket?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ggabriele3:
I had the same thing happen, although it happened after someone else dropped the phone.

I ended up buying a new front assembly for the phone for about $237. It was the only seller that affirmatively listed the display as AMOLED. The repair was pretty straightforward and it works well now
[Galaxy Note 3 General] nlatifolia:
Is it already out of warranty from Samsung that u bought parts by urself ?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] alom5:
[MENTION=225651]op[/MENTION] send it to Samsung and get it fixed for free. Got nothing to lose
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ggabriele3:
I was told that the drop wasn't covered by the warranty.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dragoncius:
but you didnt drop it.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] TrompKramer:
He said someone else dropped it....

But a good hit on the side of the phone can crack an lcd. Seen many.

You cant see any thing wrong unless you hold it into the light.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] J3ff:
I decided to go the honest route.

Handed her the phone saying that I dropped it, don't have insurance, can't get it anymore because it's been too long and asked if there was anything that could be done.

She smiled, said "Finally someone is honest, let me see what I can do"

Turns out they had a broken Note3 in the back with a good digitizer and screen.

Charged me 75 bucks, signed me up for insurance (I'm months outside the 30 day window) and sent me on my way.

Sure it's not free, but for 75 bucks and I don't have to mess with it and I kept my integrity, I'm happy!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ggabriele3:
I didn't drop it, but someone else did. So the warranty was gone.

The parts for the repair cost $237, i think, and was totally doable.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ggabriele3:
you actually can replace just the screen - there is a youtube video of a guy doing it.

However, when I did it, it was actually cheaper to buy the entire assembly...not to mention much easier.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] cholywell:
Since you can get to download mode go to samfirmware.com and get the full stock firmware. Flash it back to stock with odin first and go from there. Get it booting stock firmware before worrying about cwm and root.
