If it only has WiFi radio on board as I suspected then yes, I am afraid there is no way to make this a working phone, either return or take the hit :( and use as a media player.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danielfg87:
Sadly mot the device has no radio board as the note 3 demo units correctly stated earlier in the thread.

It only has wifi, so it more like a little wifi tablet.

I have the same issue although my phone is SM -G900F not an X, does that I mean I can get mine working? I tried all the things you said and I am getting stuck when it comes to getting Odin to install the normal rom from sammobile. although I inserted a lebara sim card (uk sim card) and it asked me for the network the choices were like: sainsbury's, btmobile, vodafone pay monthly or payg, so I have a feeling it a normal phone with the live demo installed.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
These demo units aren`t even meant to be sold to conusmers afaik, so they have not been sold through the regular channels and probably `borrowed without asking`. This thread should be closed and deleted imo. Thread reported, let the mods decide and don`t post these kind of threads on this forum guys.

If the buyer bought the phone in good faith and he didn't stole it, why should this thread be closed??
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Often Sales reps sell demo units onwards after they are not needed. They aren't illegal to deal in or use.

The big corporations don't like them being given/sold to the end user, but there isn't much they can do about as quite often the shops have officially purchase them and then they let employees either have them at a high discounted rate or for free more often than not.

Unless an IMEI is reported stolen then there's nothing illegal about it I'm afraid.

Never heard of retail mode until I purchased a S5 off craigslist today. I checked the IMEI with verizon and several online ESN checkers. The phone has a clean IMEI. Stupid me installed my sim and it worked fine with voice, text and data. The stupid retail mode keep running and deleting my configuration after reboot. The only way to reboot was pull the battery! The standard way to remove it did not work at all. Found a hint at the very end of a youtube video to delete /sdcard/Android/obb/com.samsund.dct.retailagent.global.serrano. Of course that file was not found on the phone, but after hammering the phone with abd shell, I figured out a possible solution by trail and error.

Try this someone if you don't have a 900X. Password for retail mode did not work because samsung updated retail mode app in Aug. 2014. Passwords on the net are for the old version of the app.

Root the phone with towelroot. Install supersu and busybox. Reboot if needed and make sure both are working.

Then try the following commands

abd shell

su

cd /

find . -iname "*retail*" 2> /dev/null

Then delete everything that you find that has the word "retail" in it.

Then reinstall Samsung retail mode for S5 app. It won't install because you don't have the password. Old passwords on the net don't work with the new retail mode app. Uninstall with your favorite root app (titanium backup for me).

Then disable knox and uninstall any demo apps or retail apps with your favorite root app.

Looks like everything is working expect factory wipe with recovery which is not a problem for me.

After doing all this upgrade to the latest version of kitkat and root your phone again. The phone appears to be working fine now. Will delete more bloatwear.

I keep saying I will never buy another phone on craigslist and guess what I do anyway!

Whatever.

You should be good to go!

I don't want to resurrect the thread too much, but I do want to say that retail salespeople like myself may sometimes get the option to give used retail units away to friends and family, may be able to buy them for a big discount, or use one as a personal phone, and often our immediate retail tech support doesn't have this information easily available. I check XDA first for the codes and the processes to make them ready for normal use, and there are quite a few retail and former retail devices that were not stolen or mishandled in any way, just ready to retire from a store.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphahere:
Put the sim in the phone now and if you can call a number then it is a real 900F. If not then no firmware can solve the problem. The hardware does not have a cell radio. Hope this helps.

Galaxy S5 Demo Mode

Hi,

Do you know for sure that this method removes the Demo Mode from a Galaxy S5?
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] varunmehta11:
I'm currently using two 3G enabled Sims in my Galaxy Core GT-i8262.

My Sole purpose of getting the Sim 2 was to use 3G Data/Internet on it, while using Sim 1 for Calling and texting only.

I went for Galaxy Core only because i have to use Voice and Data on 2 different Sims separately.

Therefore , i inserted the Sim 2, Went into Sim Manager > Enabled both Sim > Dual Sim Active

I also enabled "Receive incoming calls via Other Sim card while using Data service" in Both Sim 1 & Sim 2.

But when i selected this setting i received a popup "This might slow down the data transmission"

>Also i have Set Data as "Sim 2" in Sim 1, (So only Sim 2 will ne used for Data)

And Sim 1 as GSM Only while Sim 2 as WCDMA Only

But still, when i'm on a call in Sim 1, i can't use the 3G service of Sim 2 simultaneously. Only after disconnecting the call, Sim 2 3G Data starts working,

So the whole purpose of using Dual Sim goes wast when we can't use 3G internet on one sim while on call in the other.

Can anyone suggest how to enable this feature and also to avoid the "The slow data transmission" due to Dual Active Sim.. Otherwise this phone is just a piece of trash as i'll be on call most of the time and i won't be able to check my mail or Whatsapp msgs.

[Samsung Galaxy Core.] abhijeetc9762:
Ask this to samsung CEO he cannot answer that:sly::eek::D;)
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] StariX37:
While u r on a call on Sim 1 you cannot use the data connection from the Sim 2 even if its on WCDMA. But u can use 3G on the same sim on which the call is being recieved or done ...means Sim 1 can be used for both purpose simultaneously for Calling & Data connection on WCDMA ...even if u r on a call on sim 1 the data connection wont be lost...
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] luciand:
hi! i'm not shure if i understand :)

i want to purchase this phone and i'm not shure if i can use in one sim voice over 3G and in the other one data over 3g.

I don't want to use voice and data in the same time...

Please help me :)
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] luciand:
nobody can help me?
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] hugobitola:
Hi Luciand, are you from Brazil?

My guess is that it is impossible to use voice on SIM 1 and data on SIM 2 because the smartphone have only one modem.

Even if it is capable of receiving calls on both SIM 1 or SIM 2, it is not possible to actively use the two SIMs at the same time.

For some smartphone to be capable of doing what you want, it should have two modems, which I believe would increase its cost and nobody would buy it...

I hope this helps, and if anyone knows better, please correct me!
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] mtdonohu1:
You are able to select which SIMs data service the phone uses in the sim card manager under Data service network. However, you cannot use voice and data at the same time, regardless of which sim is set to be used for voice or data (at least here in the US on EDGE network.)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] were50:
Hey, I recently got my G2 and I love it. The only thing that really annoys me is the camera. When indoors in a fairly well lit room, it lags. I'm not talking about the focus, but the framerate is really low and what appears on the screen is behind what is actually happening, on both front and rear cameras. My old S IIIs camera performed alot better than this, and it's frustrating whenever I even open any camera involving app (stock camera app, snapchat, google camera etc.) Does anyone have any suggestions? Is this how all G2s are, or is mine faulty?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeynox:
The g2 camera is a pos. It produces a ton of noise in fair to low light and it takes in not enough light to perform properly. You can try installing a camera mod which I did yesterday after I was *****ing on here about the same issues. I installed xdabbab's mod and it seems a hair better than the stock camera but it still sucks. The galaxy s3/4/5 iPhone 5/5s and all the Nokia lumias all perform better then the G2.

If you are tooted try installing the camera mods and see if they help you. I'm just spoiled by better camera phones .

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jreyes23:
okay so I followed this link true-android.blogspot. com/2014/03/root-t999uvuenc2-t-mobile-galaxy-s3. html to root my s3. I did not get the yellow bar that I was supposed to but I decided to follow through anyway. At the end of it I received the PASS message. I had superuser installed. The problem is that it seems like knox is keeping superuser from granting anything root privileges. Every time I launch superSU, it leaves me with a message of "unfortunately SuperU has stopped. On my notification bar it shows security information and the message "an application attempted to acces system on your device without authorization. This attempt has been blocked...." i also can't seem to log into it to uninstall it because it gives me an error. root checker tells me I don't have proper root access but I am assuming it's because superuser is being blocked. I am unable to uninstall superuser and my flash counter went up to one so I am "assuming" that I am rooted. Does anyone know how to disable knox? or if it is not knox and it turns out that my device is not really rooted, do you guys know how I can root it? this is all really confusing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
First thing, you will have much better luck just sticking to the forums here. Not many are willing to assist with other sites posted processes because for the most part, everything you could possibly need is right here.

Before you do much else, look over the sticky threads in each of our sections. You will find lots of very important info and ill bet a better way to accomplish what you want to do.

Check my firmware thread for root66 firmware. Flash it and your rooted and knox free. Click on the root66 heading to go to the thread.

By reading the sticky threads you will also find alternative methods. The only one I warn against is something called the toolkit.

If you have specific questions about anything feel free to ask.
