[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MonkeySon:
Hello guys,

i'm new in the forum and this is my first entry.

I got quite a complicated situation with my phone... i try to describe this as good as possible.

My brother gave his old phone, a GT-I9070P with GB (v2.3.6) on it and i wanted to upgrade it to a newer firmware. Unfortunatly I haven't had an Android phone in a long time (2 years or so).

Nevertheless i wanted to upgrade it to 4.1.2 stock and use NFC (for programming a little bit).

I asked the father of a friend of mine to upgrade it because he has much more expirience with flashing and all that stuff .. ;)

He said that this is no problem and after a few days he gave it back to me and told me that there were some difficulties but he did it.

Now i got my phone with JB 4.1.2 but when i tried it out, it didn't recognize the SIM card.

I gave it back to him and said, that the SIM wasn't working.

We found out that he flashed a I9070 stock and that the IMEI was "deleted" but he knows a guy how can fix this.

I read in a few forums about this problems and found out that this has got something to do with the modem (baseband / IMEI).

When i got my phone back, the SIM was recognized again.

But now i got a GT-I9070P with I9070 stock firmware (-> NFC not working)

Today i tried to flash two I9070P stock roms with Odin 3.09 but it didn't work out.

(I can post the LOG from Odin if you want)

When i flashed the I9070 stock again, it worked perfectly.

Sorry for the long post but now my actual question:

Is it possible to get a full functional I9070P with working NFC back on the phone?

(To be honest: i don't have any backups or /lib/tee - folders)

Thank you very much for helping me out!

cheers,

MonkeySon

"But now i got a GT-I9070P with I9070 stock firmware" - your phone would be hardbricked if you flashed I9070 firmware on I9070P, so I suppose that is not the case. Did you try to do factory reset after flashing stock firmware for I9070. P.S. We do not have any custom ROM with NFC support as I know.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MonkeySon:
Thank you for the quick response.

Hm... but this is exactly whats the case right now...

The back of the phone says "I9070P" and i have the backcover with the NFC "antenna" but the the device information says "Model: GT-I9070... Basebandversion: I9070XXLQG"

Okay, i will try that :)

But even if this works, wouldn't there the problem with the SIM-recognition again?

I know, that's the reason why i wanted to flash the newest stock rom. ;)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamuadamu:
I'd try to flash 9070P lib/tee/folder (use temporary recovery or flash any cocore kernel beforehand) - to be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191628 (use version for stock ROMs)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MonkeySon:
If i get it right you suggest:

- flash CoCore incl. recovery (for I9070)

- install the I9070P tee folder zip on my 9070 stock

What should theoretically happen then - would i be able to use NFC or flash the 9070P stock rom then?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tarola:
Maybe the guy changed the board and you have i9070 without p/nfc ....
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] #Henkate:
Try to flash cocore for I9070P as your phone is with NFC,then flash that tee folder zip and see if its working.If it is,download stock rom for P vesion from sammobile.com .I dont remember if flashing stock from there will increase count,but you can reset it later.

Now i did a factory reset after flashing the 9070 stock but i got the same error as before while flashing 9070P stock

[MENTION=4886505]Tarola[/MENTION]

Well this could possibly be but i don't think that, i trust them ;)

[MENTION=4471434]Force[/MENTION]

Okey thanks, i will try that and report later :)

BTW: flashing stock also increases counter.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MonkeySon:
well, lets see..

i installed CoCore-EP-8.6-CWM - everything ok

installed 9070PJBlibteefolder.zip via recovery - no problem

restart the phone - restart to download mode and try to flash P rom.

Exact same error as before, in addition to that, the phone is now unable to read my SIM again :(

Odin does not complete instalation. It stuck at installing normal.bin.md5
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MonkeySon:
yeah... but does anyone know why it stuck?

i don't think it would be the rom.. because this was the case with every 9070P rom i tried so far.

this whole thing is a little mystrey to me to be honest :P

EDIT:

I got my IMEI and SIM functionality back by flashing the 9070 stock again.

Just in case someone wants to know ;)

I think i'm gonna ask the guy who did this for me how he achieved it, that the phone thinks its another model :P

Only thing that I can tell you now is that you are lucky that your phone was not hardbricked.
[LG Optimus G (International)] itsdacj:
Help! My phone got soft bricked the other day and I flashed a .kdz different to the actual stock rom. The phone worked fine. I rooted, unlocked the boot loader and flashed a custom recovery then I flashed the liquidsmooth 4.3.1 rom and there was no wifi or mobile network. I also lost the CWM backup I made of the non-stock .kdz. Please help I have to use an awful iPhone 3GS...
[LG Optimus G (International)] patalao:
Wi-Fi and network problems are not a reason to say your phone is bricked.

First try something to see if it fixes.

The network "problem" should be resolved if you choose the mobile network manual.

About Wifi that as to do with modules but it should work when you install a fresh rom.

Try to use other recovery(twrp) because cwm is having some trouble.

It seems that GPS support is a widespread weakness in custom ROMs like CM. That is why I was pleasantly surprised to find it out worked on MIUI when I tested it.

I don't know what secret sauce they added to make it work but I'm curious if there are any other ROMs that did the same.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikiGry:
In cm based ROMs GPS is working. If u think it is not working on your phone use GPS status and tool box.

I tested it 3 months ago and couldn't get it to work. I read it is related to the compass not working in custom ROMs. Can you confirm it is okay now? I will be happy to try again.

The international one has root and recovery already. I guess htc dev works to. Maybe us at&t users will luck out.

US carriers promised to lock things down tightly after the One came out. I guess we'll see.

do we know if this device has a locked bootloader that will be hard to crack or will they actually design it to be unlocked like sony does.

im trying to decide between m8 and z2, and i know sony has been cool in the past with allowing the phone to be easily rooted and unlocked to allow flashing. i am coming from a galaxy s4 with unlocked mdk bootloader but i am upgrading and i want to be able to mod my phone

did anyone try htc-dev or kingo?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] fix-this!:
we will once we get the phone today. :p

as of today the verizon users cannot use htc dev, we shall see if at&t locked us out to. good thing is i know s-off is being worked on.

I ordered an m8 to test our cases on, but the z2 is the one I'm really looking forward to. It will have to be amazing though for me to give up my Note 3 screen real estate!

Already. Unlocked bootloader via HTC Dev. AT&T must have forgot lol

Go to htcdev.com and unlock your bootloader fellas! Let the games begin!
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] boogie2001:
So just to confirm... this method worked on your 'AT&T' HTC One M8 right?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] DirtyDroidX:
Yes the att model can be unlocked through htcdev.com . Let's just hope ATT don't pull a VZW and yank it like they did with the M7!
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] enchanter100:
Confirmed that htc dev unlocking works on att..
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] TheXclusive814:
I would assume this voids your warranty with at&t and no relocking and going back to virgin status?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] DirtyDroidX:
Maybe and yes you can relock.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] TheXclusive814:
I'm just concerned because I may be moving to att next and at the end of my 12 month I can turn the phone in and upgrade to a new one and want to be able to relock it so I don't have an issue when giving it back to AT&T
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] droidiac13:
I have returned quite a few phones that I have relocked and unrooted without one problem through warranty exchange. I'm not concerned with it at all and I am on the Next program as of this phone. Besides that, the warranty is up after the 1st year. This is just my experience and I can't speak for everyone.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] DirtyDroidX:
As long as you return the phone with a stock system ,boot,recovery etc and relock you will be okay my friend.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] TheXclusive814:
as long as I can do that, that's great. With my note2 having tripped Knox I do not have that option. Damn Samsung
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] exbarboss:
Was anyone able to get root?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Marcismo55:
I just unlocked via HTC Dev, flashed twrp recovery to make a stock backup and installed SuperSu from there. Root achieved easily.

Nice! Just did the same. Works fine but one ass pain is ATT stuff. After reboot all ATT apps get back(.

Agree even with root you cannot delete att stuff. Guessing we need s-off to do this

KnoxRaid also doesn't have the most of the google apps installed within the rom so you will have to install those through the playstore if you need them.

AT&T wireless has 107M customers. Do you honestly believe they care about 1K tech fiends who are asking for something that's the polar opposite of what their B2B customers who number in the 10's of millions want? It took the FCC years to figure out the impact of SIM lock which is pretty basic and affects everyone using a carrier phone. Even if they picked up locked bootloaders for examination the Note 5 will be out by the time anything's done. And since it affects such a small niche and subset of wireless customers I doubt they'd pick up the issue at all. With the Edward Snowden affect on data security what possible case can be made for making any electronic device less secure? That's what asking for unlocked bootloaders really is. T-Mobile's starting to lock their bootloaders. It's tied to a push their making in to the B2B market. If Sprint ever gets their act together and is in a position to go after B2B they'll lock their bootloaders too.

Locked bootloaders are the future whether we like it or not.

Yep. Too many idiots bricking their phones and sending in for replacement.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graydiggy:
Not like it is hard to still brick a device...

In fact it is much easier to do so. I could easily brick my phone and send it in for replacement all because I don't like the scratches on the silver trim.

It is not because people were bricking. You guys say they don't care about our small community so they won't unlock bootloaders, bit then say too many people were doing stupid stuff to brick and they care so much... That is terribly ironic.

They don't care about us on either front. They want money. They want business contracts with large companies and the government. Therefore they need a stupidly secure bootloader and Knox to get these contracts. They are scripted to say that it is for secure and safe usage for all, but it is in fact for their big contractors.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BarryH_GEG:
Kind of like the West's response to Russia taking over Crimea? ;) I'm not trying to be negative but there were 1B smartphones sold last year alone. There are 5M XDA members of varying degrees of participation. The masses could care less about locked bootloaders, flash counters, and the like. The odds aren't in our favor and this seems like a losing battle; at least to me. A more winnable fight would be to get the carriers and device makers to offer gPE and developer versions of their devices for enthusiasts. That way everyone would be happy (more or less). But even when VZW/Samsung did that people *****ed about it not being available subsidized. We're a tough crowd to please. :)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dincdoes.me:
I think if we keep pushing they will do some thing. I used to work for att now I work for another cell phone company that doesn't lock their devices. But when I worked for att they bend over backwards to do contacts or upgrades if someone is not happy. It's all about money you never know maybe they might use special codes that unlock bootloaders or use a area on their Web site to apply for an OTA to do so. Their is a lot of ways a company like att to make 1000 customers happy. Just for laughs I multiplied my bill with my state tax of 6% for 1000 people just for an example I have 4 lines each of us pay for our phones on the new mobile share priced at 160 for 10gbs a month the total again this is an example if we all switched out to another carrier they would lose out =7,453,920 in 2 year contracts

Since it's made of metal it is harder to create a wireless charging base for it.

The spec sheet doesn't mention it and it didn't happen on the M7. If it was possible they'd mention it most likely.

Also wireless charging is a godsend. I have the Nexus 4 Wireless Charging Orb with my Nexus 5 and it's so much better to just drop it on the ord then to fumble with a cable and everything.
