If you have doubts about whether your phone is a Magician or a Charmer (it has the same looks, but different hardware) you can look at the OS.

If it's Windows Mobile 2003 (SE), then it's a Magician (Qtek S100 or Qtek S110 / MDA Compact)

If your OS is Windows Mobile 2005, then it's a Charmer (a Qtek model doesn't exist as far as I know / MDA Compact 2)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JimmySmalls:
Hey guys hopefully someone can help me out a little because I am stumped right now and have been for a couple days. I had a stock Verizon S3 on 4.3 and was wanting to unlock it so I rooted it which went fine. I updated SuperUser, verified I had root access and then proceeded to use EZ-Unlock for the S3 which also seemed to go just fine as it said the device had been unlocked. Well I had planned on giving the phone to someone so I went into the settings and did a factory reset so it would be all cleaned out and ready for someone else. It seemed to work fine, did it's thing and then of course rebooted, well it never did come back on so I decided after a few minutes to turn it back on myself which I then discovered it wouldn't turn back on.

I've tried plugging it in to the wall charger for a while which did nothing, the light doesn't even come on. I've plugged it back into a couple of different PCs which make the noise like a device has been connected, even installed the S3 drivers on the computer that didn't have the drivers but still no charging light and it doesn't show up in the adb device list. Today I decided to take the battery out and plug it into the wall which does turn the charging light on for a little bit but of course the phone doesn't start up at all, it was a long shot but I've tried everything I can think of so I'm hoping someone here can maybe help me out. Thank you to anyone that is willing to read this and let me know what they think.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] x2jesse1x:
Phone: SHG-I317

Carrier: AT&T

Current Firmware: 4.1.1

Hey guys, I purchased this phone and have yet to officially activate it. I downgraded from 4.1.2 so that I could unlock it to work on other networks. I did the unlock procedure and I attempted to put in a METRO PCS Sim card but I get: Phone not allowed mm#6. The phone is not blacklisted as Ive checked numerous sites online and even went to a AT&T store and they were able to pop a AT&T Sim card in and it worked just fine.

I tried to search this issue but the only thing I can come up with was that it could possibly be blacklisted but Ive ruled out that possibility for now.

Could it be that the unlock was unsuccessful and I need to do it again? But then how am I supposed to know that it was successful without another carriers sim card? is there something that changes in the settings or something?

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi everyone. I'm working on a project but i stuck. Here is my problem...

When we want to pair with smartphone(1) and bluetooth headset , the phone can recognize it as headset. But in this case i want to make the phone(1) show as headset (to other phones) and connect with another phone(2) .

So , when i play the music or answer a call with phone (2) , i want to hear the sound through phone (1) [which is we set as headset]

Is this possible ? and How can i do ?

Thanks.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xgerryx:
The cover is really, really annoying. Especially for me, who uses bluetooth through my car speakers for my main music stuff. So each time I get in the car I plug the phone into the 12 volt. And each time, I have to pry open that cover. The worst part is, it doesn't even stay open! I also just got my Incipio dual layer protection case in the mail and now its even harder to get the charging cover off. It's really aggravating. I don't even think it closes correctly either. It always looks like its not snapped down all the way. Just, bleh. Most annoying quirk on the 4 Samsung phones I've owned.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] platinumyahoo:
just get the spare battery charge kit so you never have to mess with it. Its also a better means of going from zero to 100 than wireless charger
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Triskite:
Yeah I'm not really sure what to do here. I have a bunch of 3D models for phone docks / car docks / etc for the gs3 and gs4, the battery cover is a total nuisance on the gs5, especially because it doesn't really stay open after you open it (I'm trying to imagine how to go about designing a dock for this thing).

I do 3D modeling and have a 3D printer, if anyone has an idea for an improvement... holler. I doubt we'll see any kind of other 3rd party replacement otherwise as it's attached to the phone and clearly involved with waterproofing. not sure if it's worth the trade-off!

anywho guess I'll be giving wireless charging a try again...

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] traccdma:
using Samsung's open headphone jack as justification in your mind to physically remove the usb 3.0 charging port cover? wow, just wow.

would you say there are more or LESS pins/traces exposed comparing the inside of the headphone jack versus the usb 3.0 charging port?

Moisture, mixed with minerals/salts that were in the water combined with a 5Volt power source = phone failure (electrical short) waiting to happen

water could literally sit in the headphone port for days, and never seep into the phone. water/contaminants would, at most, cause erratic behavior of the headphone detection until it was removed or cleaned.

My cover is loose, it doesn't close all the way. It's definitely a bad design!

I agree with it being a bad design. I did want to share that I no longer have the "close all the way" issue now that I close it differently. Pain in a butt, but I push diagonally into the corner from which it protrudes then down. This has fixed my ill fitting closed door issues.

My mom got one of these on Saturday, and while I was setting it up for her the Sunday night I noticed the crappy USB cover. My only question is, if it DOES break off (it really is the stupidest design decision ever...), will that "Check the USB cover" warning that pops up keep popping up over and over? If not, and if it doesn't really affect anything, then I don't care. But since she just got it a few days ago, if it will potentially cause a frequent annoyance, she just may return it for something else.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HughesNet:

I'm pretty sure it only pops up after unplugging the cord or after reboot.... Very dumb design... Mine barley snaps in and the first S5 I got it didn't even close with out falling out while in my pocket or playing on the phone. This is my 3rd S5 and I gave up they are all different... Maybe poor quality control... I have a couple replacements if it breaks, and it's super easy to replace

The little piece of black plastic (the latch) on mine broke off.

I'm getting a ZeroLemon Battery plus case in the next couple days, I'll let you guys know if it's possible to just swing it over and have the case on.

it should work since I've heard the case is loose. Which should actually make it tighter on the phone when I just squish the cover inside the case.

But I might just send it in for a new one. Since someone said you can even though it's rooted because it's a physical issue?

On my older phones I always left GPS off, unless navigating - as GPS was a big power drain. For everything else I would just have it using the wifi/mobile networks (yelp, facebook, checkin's ect.)

I see the S5 has new options - High accuracy (gps, wifi + mobile), Power savings (wifi + mobile), and GPS only. Does the GPS not drain as much anymore and it may be worth keeping on all the time? Or do I keep toggleing between accurate and power saving each time I use the GPS (seems like alot of changing, maybe tasker would help)?

I don't have Galaxy S5, but on my Nexus 4, I have following setup.

The following Mod will unlock all APNs for editing, and allow you to tether using the Stock Built-in tethering:

For this to work, you must be rooted, and have busybox installed.

This is confirmed working on T-Mo software version 1.12.531.19 It may work for others, but they should probably have their own Settings.apk mod done to avoid issues.

People were having problems installing this via ADB, so I have made a flashable zip to simplify the process:

OLD Instructions:
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] nonmindo:
How would you go about getting this to work on a deodexed ROM? I just attempted the walkthrough with ARHD 3.4 and it didn't work, my APN settings are still locked

Is there an elaborate explanation to step 2? I'm new to HTC and have never used terminal or adb. Was blessed on my Razr HD. Thank you.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] hawaiianboi:
You would enter those commands through the command prompt where you have your android sdk set up.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] The_Blue_Bomber:
Okay. Thank you
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Fenny:
ARHD probably has a different Settings.apk. The APN unlocking magic is in my modded Settings.apk. I have patched it to simply ignore the "readonly" value in telephony.db.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] blakejohnson86:
I'm assuming you'll still have to use a VPN to encrypt your HTTP headers, or spoof your useragent to show up as a mobile device. Otherwise, T-Mobile will mark unencrypted traffic as tethering anyway. I would love to be wrong on this one, but I don't think it's _that_ simple otherwise.

Also, I find the replacing and modifying of files to be easier in Recovery than when booted into the system. System has some annoying write protection to deal with.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Fenny:
User agent spoofing is still required. Particularly if you are trying to use IE. Just spoof the same Desktop UA string that mobile chrome spoofs, and you are all set.

You can also change the protocol by doing:

sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
update carriers set protocol='IPV4V6' where protocol = 'IPV4';
