Did you use fastboot to flash the boot.IMG?

If you use cm11 or aokp/PAC in the 4.4.2 flavor.. The WiFi modules are built into the boot.IMG...

And the kangbang kernel is for ICS... And maybe cm10... But not cm10.1 or cm11
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] nemesys1024:
Yes, I flash the boot.img before the room, but nothing happends..

But CM11 is Good idea, i will try it!

confirm me please this so i can continue,

Remember I'm S-ON

CM11 get it from this post -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2524934 (download main ZIP + gapps)

1 - flash the room + gapps in recovery (TWRP) - (this installs room + kernel)

2- flash boot.img (boot.img file extracted from cm11 zip, ok?)

3- Reboot & enjoy :P

do I wipe caches or something before flash the room?

many thanks!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cmerlyn:
From the OP for CM11 Unofficial:

Do NOT use superwipes

Wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache

** (if you are simply applying an update to this rom base this might not always be required)

*** ((but do not report bugs if you didn't full wipe))

Flash ROM

Flash GAPPS (in 2nd post)

If you are S-ON you MUST flash boot.img in fastboot or other method EVERY ROM FLASH or you will have issues

Reboot

???

Profit

Hi there people!

My name is Andreas from Germany and I just sold my Xperia S for a ZL. For the last few months I was stuck with combo of Nature Xperia Rom and Doom Kernel cause of incredible battery Life. Now Ive opened up my BL and wondered what ROM/Kernel Combo to choose for ZL since Ive found no real advice in the threads. Even If its worth trying KK Rom instead of 4.3 based?!?!

Any Advices?? Thank You!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SafiXS:
Hey German Dude, I think this thread match better with the q&a forum ;)

You have to find your own best Rom yourself, someone like stock because Bravia and remote, some like cm because the customisation options and always stay latest android. Since you have unlocked bootloader you can try every rom you can found here in zl section.

I'am a flashaholic, I flash new rom near every 5 days.

If you need help, don't be shy and ask :)

Hey German Dude,

Kai here :D

The best 4.4 ROMs in my eyes are carbon & Luiquidsmooth.

CM has regular updates, lineup Linaro mod CM is supposed to be extremely optimised on the hardware, maybe it's the best way to go.

I am waiting (and hoping) for Sailfish OS and currently using simple CyanogenMod 10.2 (android 4.3). It's really easy going. Fast, smooth, stable, statisfying :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] cruise350:
Well, if you have only had your phone for a week, there is a very good chance that you have the newer L720T model and not the L720 original Sprint S4. It is very important you figure out which model you have before you go about trying to fix it. Remove the battery and look at the model number. If it is the L720T, there is no hotspot mod and you will need to make sure you download the correct stock tar to fix your phone. You will need to go to sammobile.com and register to download tar files. Look for SPH-L720T under firmwares and download the latest one.

If you do have the original L720, than the only stock tar that will install for you is the NAE full stock tar file found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2663619 . Then re root your phone with cf autoroot and install the NAE odexed hotspot mod using the custom revovery of your choice: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2653666 . Make sure you flash the hotspot mod with a custom recovery, if you try to manually replace the files using a file explorer it will fail on NAE.

Again, first thing you need to do is determine which model of the Sprint S4 you have!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] csturner.ct@gmail.com:

Im not in a spark area but still getting much better 4g speeds than my Note 2. Be it modem or whatever its nice
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themuffinman:
It has nothing to do with upgrading spark to enable voice and lte, sorry but that is completely wrong. Its device specific and not the network, the reason why its not possible is because there is only one radio path with the current crop of tri-band devices which makes it impossible to have lte and voice at the same time so nothing can be done on the network side to make it work. The reason why it was possible on previous non tri-band devices was because they had more than one radio path. I am sure its possible but maybe it just proved too costly and too inefficient to implement Also keep in mind that none of the other wireless carriers can do voice and lte at the same time. The gs5 on att/tmobile, once a call is initiated will drop lte all together but at least they still have the luxury of hspa to fall back on for data in the mean time.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyecon82:
Are you sure? Everything I gave read indicates it's a network issue rather than hardware

The s4 didn't have the svdo radio so we lost simultaneous voice and data on 3g and the original s4 could do it without the extra radio
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordLugard:
Non-triband Sprint LTE phones "supported simultaneous voice and LTE (SVLTE). It could do so with

two separate transmission paths from the antennas to the chipset

. Voice/texting could run via 1xRTT on one transmission path. LTE could run a separate path, allowing data and voice to be used simultaneously."

"In contrast,

Sprint Triband LTE devices do not support two separate transmission paths

. They have one path, shared by voice/SMS and data. We were alerted to this months in advance. However, we did not realize that the network would have to run on Circuit Switched Fallback in order for this to work and what the ramifications of this would be."

Source: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/...-due-to-circuit-switched-fallback-technology/

It's a very informative and extensive read-up and explains, sadly, what is going on.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyecon82:
great article and it proves my point that simultaneous voice and data will be available via triband LTE in the future and its a network issue, not phone hardware

"Yes, this is an issue of all Triband devices, as they are dependent on CSFB to be present on the Sprint network in order to be able to use LTE.

The problem is not Triband LTE devices, but rather that the Sprint network is not currently upgraded enough in all places that currently have LTE"

Basically, Switchback Mode needs to be enabled for us to have simultaneous voice and data over LTE

" when a Sprint LTE Triband device is in Sprint LTE coverage it parks only in LTE. And doing so means it cannot transmit calls without Circuit Switched Fallback (CSFB) on the network side. CSFB and eCSFB (Enhanced Circuit Switched Fallback) are network controls that

will allow a single mode/single path network to operate in two modes

, both CDMA and LTE"

Prior to triband phones, there were 2 radios...one for CDMA, and one for LTE...but now it's all over LTE radio for both calls and data...but not yet enabled, so it can only do 1 at a time currently

---------- Post added at 07:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:09 AM ----------

it says right there in in bold in your quote that you need "Circuit Switched Fallback" to have 2 transmission paths on one radio...but it is not yet enabled

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themuffinman:
Yes, I am very sure, its in the radio design. Even with previous devices that could do svdo and svlte, it was because of radio design of the hardware and not because of the network.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyecon82:
Read post #12. You are wrong, respectfully

yes, there is 1 radio..but spark will allow both voice and data over LTE once switchback mode is enabled, hence allowing 2 channels with 1 radio
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordLugard:
Spark in NYC has been a disappointment for me. Haven't seen or noticed any improvements at all (I have an LG G2). Typically test as low as 2Mb to as high as 9Mb usually, which is just fine by me. Fast enough to stream stuff without buffering (most times) but it's just not consistent.

Frankly I'll trade some of that theoretical 40Mbps LTE speeds for better LTE coverage and 3G speeds and the ability to talk and surf over 3G and LTE any day. (I know it's not a big deal for lots of folks but i sure enjoyed it when I had the Galaxy S3 and Note 2).

Definitely jealous of your speeds though. :)
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themuffinman:
I am sorry but I don't think you understand what Robert was trying to say in that article. The reason why its not possible is because there is only one transmission path so its only possible for you to be connected either cdma or lte. The purpose of csfb is to let the tri-band device to know when to actually switch, thats why tri-band devices that are in areas that are not fully upgraded with csfb will have connection issues because it doesn't know when to switch. Simultaneous voice and data will not happen with the current hardware design of tri-band devices regardless of whats done in the network side.

EDIT: And when it talks about csfb is needed, its not needed to be able to do cdma and lte modes at the same time its needed to tell the device when to switch to either cdma or lte.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunundrum78:

yep....read the above....

---------- Post added at 02:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:35 PM ----------

yea, but it says BOTH...not "either"

"allow a single mode/single path network to operate in two modes, both CDMA and LTE"
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themuffinman:
Come on guys, you don't understand what the article is saying:

"

In contrast, a Sprint Triband LTE device can only stay on one technology at a time. CDMA or LTE, not both

. So when a Sprint LTE Triband device is in Sprint LTE coverage it parks only in LTE. And doing so means it cannot transmit calls without Circuit Switched Fallback (CSFB) on the network side. CSFB and eCSFB (Enhanced Circuit Switched Fallback) are network controls that will allow a single mode/single path network to operate in two modes, both CDMA and LTE.

Here is how it works in the simplest way I can describe. When your Triband LTE device has an LTE signal, it cannot receive or make calls on its own. It is just using LTE data happily. However, what if someone calls you? How does it get through the CDMA network to your device? Via CSFB.

When the Sprint network tries to forward a call to your device but cannot see it via CDMA, it then checks for an LTE connection to your device. If it sees one, it tells your device to disconnect from LTE for a moment and reconnect to CDMA. Your device then jumps over to take the call on Sprint CDMA and

the LTE session is interrupted

. This happens very fast and seamlessly.

Except for the loss of data availability

. If you receive a text, the Sprint network is able to route it to your device via LTE."

When it talks about both cdma and lte modes, its not meaning both at the same time, it means being able to switch between the two seamlessly. Without csfb there will be issues switching back and forth for tri-band devices. In the last paragraph I quoted from s4gru, it tells you right there how it works. When you get a call csfb tells the device what to do so you can get the call, the transition is seamless

except for the loss of data availability.

Read the whole article not just that sentence.

EDIT: Here is a link to the thread over on s4gru that talks about it in more detail, ask your questions there to see what they say.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xenokc:
Yeah, that near 40Mbps is just at the site where I live and I don't really need it with Google Fiber. 30-40M is consistent at home but not common around town. I tried speed tests while on bus around midtown/downtown KC and it typically ranged from 6-30Mbps. I did see near 60Mbps but it was at the downtown Sprint store.

Lack of concurrent voice/data bothers me too. It's a real shame other carriers are heading this direction too as VoIP by carriers won't be common for a while. Can try Google Voice VoIP in the meantime.

Where does it say it will allow a single mode/single path network to operate in two modes simultaneously?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyecon82:
The article stated "or" and after the update "and"

In programming terms, "and" means simultaneously especially if "or" was stated before

Is this just 2 different interpretations or are you guys 100 percent confident?

I spoke with a tier 3 sprint tech support rep and he even indicated that simultaneous voice and data over LTE will be implemented once all the spark towers have been upgraded
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themuffinman:
Its just two different interpretations but know that I am 100% sure of this. The tier 3 tech is definitely wrong and for what its worth I am part of the staff over on s4gru if that will give me any credibility. The way that one particular sentence is worded can be interpreted differently but once you read the entire paragraph and the following paragraphs you should get a better grasp of what Robert is trying to say. Based on how these tri-band phones are engineered right now there is no way for them to do both voice and lte simultaneously, it can only be connected to one or the other at any given moment. Obviously, this could change over time but it will be based on the hardware of the device and not the network in this particular case. In my previous post, I also provided a link to the thread over on s4gru.com that talks about this issue in great detail. You are more than welcome to join and ask any question you like. There are a lot knowledgeable people there that will give you a far better answer to anything you can come up with compared to talking to anyone at sprint.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neotremer:
Sprint Spark is not swappable. It does not support simultaneously data. Which is crap. Also the other issue is that it defaults to the "new" bands. Not the current LTE band they have been using. I wont go to a spark device till i know i can change the priority and or disable the "new" bands.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazyape415:
The tech is probably correct, but the phone would need to be VoLTE (Voice over LTE) capable. From the article, I gathered that current phones are SVLTE (Samsung S4, etc) or CSFB/eCSFB (Samsung S5, LG2, etc), but not VoLTE. When all towers are upgraded, Voice and data over LTE (VoLTE) will be available _BUT_ we will need to buy a VoLTE capable phone to use voice and data simultaneously on the Spark network.

CSFB, as stated in prev posts, tells the phone to go to voice mode to answer a call and thus disconnects you from data. I'm making the need to buy a VoLTE capable phone assumption based on the fact that CSFB is not needed when VoLTE becomes live for Sprint (if the Tier 3 Tech is right) since the article does not state whether current phones will VoLTE capable via an OTA or if it's a hardware issue (meaning we all need to buy new phones).

Solution for talk and surf

This is for the S5, but I assume it would work on the galaxy note 4 and all other devices with this issue.

Hi all, I wanted to let you know that there is a very easy work around for this limitation. It is supplied by Google Inc through the Hangouts Dialer app. I'm not sure whether or not you need Hangouts installed to use it, but it allows you to make calls via the data network and still use the network to browse the web, etc. I have tried it several times at home with WiFi off and it works flawlessly so far.

It's sad that Sprint didn't find a way to bypass this limitation on their own, or at least inform customers, but this is an easy and seamless solution by Google.

I put the icon right next to my default phone icon for future use.

Additionally, I can not believe that Sprint is not aware of this work around. I spoke to a few different representatives today, and none were able to offer a solution.

I found this on my own searching the play store. Hope this helps!!

This is no different than using something like Skype to make a VoIP call over a data connection. In most cases, I prefer the reliability of the 1x voice network when out and about (in making voice calls) over the flakiness/latency of a data network switching back and forth between 3G and LTE, etc.

Now, when on Wi-Fi (which in most cases you're in a stationary location), none of these matter or factor.
