So its been like 10 days since the rollout for the Xperia SP android 4.3 started and we on the C5306 variant haven't got the update, why is that?

Sent from my Xperia Sp C5306.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjraider:
I dont believe it is a good idea to post that question here on XDA due to the ammount of rumors and fake intel from many users.

I dont know actualy. C5306 is the one sold in the USA right? Perhaps the big operators like AT&T and Verizon have something to do with the update?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feromgar:
Yes, but I'm on an unlocked onee so any carrier-related-idiocy shouldn't affect the update on my end.

Did the back up work? What did you excluded when you flashed it?

Sent from my Xperia Sp C5306.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiidbzxt:
No, backup won't work when you change a version of Android (in this case, 4.1 --> 4.3). So look for a backup app on the Play Store. I flashed everything on the ROM, though, I lost all my data (including photos and videos) saved on the internal memory. I think you can prevent that by ticking off the "wipe data" option on Flashtool, I'm not sure.

Even LTE works.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waitforit88:
C5306 US owner here. Unlocked (basically any SP owner in the US is unlocked because it is not used by any major carrier). Still no update, even though the Sony Mobile US site for the SP shows that a new firmware has been out since 2/12. To be honest, after hearing all the issues, I don't want to update it until there is another 4.3 firmware update to see if things are fixed. 4.1.2 is working fine for me anyways. :)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QBerto:
There's a Mexican user telcel branded that actually update to 4.3, I'm Mexican too and I know that the only variant sold by telcel is 5306, because support LTE.... Maybe I'm wrong, but I saw that user in the 'news about 4.3 and 4.4'

Mine is 02 because is unbranded xD...

Also, u can flash a tft, maybe if u flash a C5303 variant u can keep LTE....

Also, PCC backup works even if u change android version, model, etc.

I am on T-Mobile.

So I've had my 802w China Unicom dual sim for a while now, and I was never a big web browser, but on my recent vacation, the lack of 3G was infuriating. Edge was so slow, it was literally slower than a snail. I read on the internet that I needed the 1900 and 2100 bands, which are present on the Dual Sim, and in an area with excellent/very good coverage, I expected it to work on 3G, but it's always on edge, and yes I am using the Sim 1 slot.

Any help is appreciated!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AR501:
I have two slots. One for stock ROM and the other for Beans. Beans is active. On each reboot I'm prompted to enter recovery or continue, with a 10 second time out.

Any way to bypass this and boot straight into Beans? When I uninstall the recovery (from beans) my phone will boot into stock, so that doesn't work.

Would like to get a reboot that effectively skips safestrap/TWRP prompt until I really need it, which isn't most of the time.

Let me know, thanks.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00143:
You can make a back up of Beans and restore it to your stock slot then uninstall safestrap. The down side is if something goes wrong you will have to Odin back to stock if you can't boot back into Beans and reinstall safestrap. I ran it without safestrap but if you want to flash anything from recovery you will have to reinstall ss again. I myself found it more beneficial to leave it installed. You will still have your ss backups if you decide to uninstall because they are stored on the ext sd card in the TWRP folder.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frank Westlake:
A future version of SafeStrap, if there is one, may allow us to change the time-out value; but it will probably have a minimum of 1, 2, or 3 seconds. There must remain some way to enter Recovery.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] purpleyslash:
Hey guys.

So I've been having all sorts of issues with my Note (first gen).

First thing is the usb charging port went out; so I bought another chipset and replaced it.

Phone was charging= SUCCESS!!

However, I turned the phone off and rebooted it; screen wouldn't power up, but my home screen buttons did.

Now, the screen is black and neither the home buttons power up.

(K, I know the phone is powering on because it vibrates and is discoverable by PC)

So what the crap did I do? I just simply replaced the chipset, I didn't go messing around with other components...

My phone isn't flashed or rooted either.

Any thoughts?

(....and I don't have the $$ to send it to samsung, out of warranty)

Just download ROM on your SD card using another device or PC.

Boot recovery mounts and storage > mount USB then copy the rom full wipe then flash the rom you've just copied & reboot phone

Also first boot always takes long time be patient till it boots. Make sure you wait atleast 10 mins if it takes that long.
[General Questions and Answers] hylyfe:
What's up XD-ers,

I seem to have bricked my AT&T Galaxy Note 3 with the Knoxraid 2.6 ROM. I am pretty familiar with the ROOT/ROM process. Prior to my Note 3, I had first Galaxy S, Galaxy Note (1), and Galaxy S3, so I am pretty baffled as to what I did wrong. Now when I boot the system to Manual Mode (Recovery), Andy is laying belly up, build shows KOT49K.N900AUCUMLG. Which indicate that I have lost Safestrap.

When trying to Flash the stock OS, Odin is saying FAILED, Write process (or something to that nature) Secure boot is Enabled and so is Write Protection....

Any idea, how to get to the land of gold from here????

Nasoor, you'll be well advised to search the board before asking questions asked far too many times. In this instance, there's surely no excuse for asking this question.

You're in the UK. Best to ask this question quietly, privately, or not at all.

It's not that it cannot be done. It's just that it's a criminal offence to offer the service :(

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] charliebrown888:
Just out of interest, if the phone was found after being stolen why dont you call the service provider, provide your proof of identity and ask them to release the IMEI from the Blacklist. It takes between 2 and 24hrs to update on the network.

If you own the phone why would you want to change the IMEI.

Just a thought
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] mnazmi:

You raised a very good question for which I am sure there is a perfectly plausable reason... However since this is a technical forum I would not attempt to clutter it with Other issues... Meanwhile if you do have a technical response then I would love to hear it..

For Wallaby it exists - XDA Manipulator

For Wizard - iWizard.

It does exist for Wallaby ? This is good question.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
XDA Manipulator does exist

not sure if it was removed though

it required a serial cable as in subD8 connector cable to the pc

and it supposedly only worked with some radiostacks

but changing the imei is not really legal most places

and unless it's used in some way to sim block a phone the

only reason to change it would be

1 one stole the phone and it was blocked

2 one bougth a stolen phone in which case one can compail or try to get the network to unblock it
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] xda2jojo:
yes some countries don't have that law...

if symbian powered cp can be changed then ms maybe yes...

if someone invented it...then what next?

though changing imei is not recommended...obviously some people want it because they stop paying there bills...some stolen.

Just like what charliebrown888 say...call your sp if it is yours...simple!

now can i recommend this thread close or continue the endless asking of imei?

IMEI Turkey. For information

I monitored this thread because there was no way to get my phone's IMEI registered for use in turkey.

Now, that is since 2007 the law has changed. If you are a foreigner in turkey and have a 2007 entry stamp in your passport then go to Turkcell and they will mobilize your phone. Any foreigner now can take a new phone from outside turkey every year.

I hope this help few expats over there.

My question it is not after you IMEI would alter. The programme wants to write to service the diagnose of car in order to he acted on PDA.

Wins over licence on only PDA. You buy my programme > you will give me your IMEI > you will receive working programme on your PDA only.

I do not it want to he was on torrent or donkey for free

If tool exists to change IMEI on Himalaya - my plan died. I have to think differently.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zhangla:
I had encryption on my phone due to company emails. I flashed bootloader and modem to 4.3 (I747UCUEMJB) in order to enjoy the latest custom ROMs.

However, after installing 5-6 of custom ROMs, I am always asked to "enter your PIN or password to encrypt the memory". No matter what I enter, the phone always restarts and goes back to the prompt asking me to enter PIN or password.

I did factory reset and cache/etc. wipes every time I flash. I thought encryption should be erased by those resets/wipes. BTW - I use TWRP as recovery.

What I would like to know, is there a way for me to get a stock 4.3 ROM to install using ODIN? Hopefully that will also install the stock recovery, which may be able to help me really do a clean factory reset/data wipe.

Any thoughts? Thanks.

I have run KK ROMs with a stock 4.1.2 bootloader with no problems at all. Updating to 4.3 isn't necessary in my opinion.

AT&T never released a stock 4.3 ROM that can be flashed via Odin. AT&T released 4.3 as an OTA update.

At this point, you may be better off flashing a custom recovery such as Philz Touch and flash a KK ROM.

Hey all,

I tried searching, and read through countless pages, but could only really find info about moving from US to Canada.

I have a Roger's GN3. Hoping to use it occasionally while travelling in the US.

Can you let me know what unlocking or other work I'll need to do to the phone.

And what carrier in the US is best supported for 4G, 3G, etc.

Thanks,

-Peter
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zadigre:
the best overall provider for Canadians residents for short trips down south is probably Roam Mobility (http://www.roammobility.com/talk-text-data).

for 3.95 per day (the smallest plan for 1 day), you are getting unlimited calls and text to US and Canadian numbers when in the USA and 300MB of data.

With this provider, you have access to 2G/3G T-Mobile's network... probably LTE at some time in the future.

So you only need your device to be sim unlocked and that's it...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polish_pat:
I Often travel to the USA and unlike here, you can go to a 7-11 and buy a prepaid sim card with data and minutes. If not, roam mobility is also a good alternative as long as you're in metropolitan areas because their coverage sucks. I drive from Montreal to Florida about twice a year and don't have coverage 80% of the way down except when i come close to big cities. It also becomes quite expensive if you're looking for any service for a trip of over 1 week, easily costing you 50$ - 100$

But, my current alternative of choice is to stick with Rogers. They have a rewards program which basically gives you points for every dollar you spend on your bill and you can then redeem travel packs. I have about 9000 points and for about 6500pts you can have 40 minutes of call time and unlimited texts for 1 month and because its redeemed on points its free. (thats if you're looking for something with no data). You first have to subscribe for the reward program, the good thing is you can use your points for what you want like upgrades, extra data, extra minutes or other perks www.rogersfirstrewards.rogers.com
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zadigre:
Roam Mobility is 27,95 for a week... Unlimited talk and text +2GB of data. You have 2G coverage nearly everywhere (at least on the highway between Montreal and Miami... And 3G in big cities.

It beats anything that Rogers can offer for the price.

Roam Mobility is easy to refill on the web, in Canadian dollars before leaving Canada. Something not always possible with a US prepaid service.

You can even easily buy your sim card online...

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polish_pat:
It certainly doesn't beat free! And no, it's not true, roam doesn't have coverage nearly anywhere, i used it last year and it cut out in the long stretches between cities.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zadigre:
You don't have data or inexpensive data with what Rogers is offering... And 40 minutes might be enough for you... But it's not comparable with unlimited.

Also I'm curious... Where did you lost coverage with Roam Mobility on the highway? I've went once to Miami and I regularly go to New York and Boston... And I always have coverage... 3G in the cities and 2G outside.

Sent from my SM-N900 with Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polish_pat:
Dont assume anything. You have no idea what OP needs. Maybe 40 minutes and unlimited text is more than enough.

As for coverage, i mentionned where it cuts off, i cant be more specific as i have not mapped where my phone lost connection but all i can say is that ive been using it for 2 years twice a year and it happends that i stop at truck stops or hotels in small cities or between cities and i couldn't text my family to give them an update when i needed to, had to pop my rogers sim back in and connect to ATT. It was along 95, thats all i can say. I do remember loosing full connection somewhere in NY about 2 hours before border until about 30 minutes from border, it was in the mountainous part of the state.

I don't personally need data and also the big problem with roam is you lose your phone number. It's great if you have no business calls or are expecting phone calls but it's not an option for me anymore to lose my phone number. I rather pay 50$ for a travel plan and keep my line connected
