[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chikara71:
Well I thought I would post again to close the loop.

After Samsung tried 5 times to fix my phone, checking hardware and trying to reinstall the OS with no luck, they suggested I try replacing my SIM card.

Surprise surprise, it has fixed the problem with no recurrence yet after a week so far.

I still don't understand how the sim card could be the problem, especially as my phone was working perfectly right up to the Kitkat software update. All I can assume is somehow KitKat either had an incompatibility with my simcard (maybe the new sim is technically slightly different?) or maybe KitKat somehow changed something on the simcard, if that's even possible.

Interestingly, I did contact my telco first, and they told me to contact Samsung. As it turned out, the fix was in the control of the telcom right from day one.

Anyway, so far the problem is resolved, so I thought I would post this here to help anyone that may have this problem.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] demaperera:
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 - 2014 edition was released back in October 2013.

For those of you who have got down this awesome little device - CONGRATS! I got an International (factory unlocked) version from Singapore.

Once I brought it down to Sri Lanka and put in a 4G supported sim, things started getting weird. My 4G didn't work :eek: The status bar only read H+ (which means WCDMA and not LTE)

My LTE carrier (Sri Dialog) said that although the sim was 4G ready, the device may have locked on to another 4G band since it was from another country.

I used a little Debug application and found out that the Note 10.1 was locked on to HSDPA 1200 Band 1, whereas the carrier supported 4G on LTE 1200 Band 3 :p

I tried going into Samsung's little backdoor called Service Mode, however Service Mode appeared not to work in here :(

(Check the comments to learn how to easily access Service Mode on all Galaxy devices)

Turns out that a couple of Note 10.1 2014 edition devices had this issue, where Service Mode can't be accessed. Service Mode is the easiest way to resolve a network problem.

Well want to know the solution? Follow these steps :fingers-crossed:

1. Root you're device using Odin. First uninstall Samsung KNOX. If you don't know how to do that, just make sure that SuperSU is installed as you're root app. Follow this root tutorial: dottech.org/148205/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-note-10-1-2014-edition-guide

2. Next download Advanced Signal Status from the Play Store. Just follow this link: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cc.signalinfo

3. Open Advanced Signal Status and go to Advanced Settings > Device Settings > Network Selection and select 'LTE/GSM'. Here GSM means HSDPA/WCDMA. You will be asked to grant root access to the app during this process. If the app crashes during the first launch, just lauch it again. After all, it was built for phones :p

Congrats! :laugh: You're device should now work on 4G

Service Mode

Kind of digression, but how do you go into the Service Mode in Galaxy Note 10.1 2014?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] demaperera:
There are various codes that you have to type in to you're dialer in order to access Service Mode, however you can use the Service Mode Shortcut app on the Play Store which makes this much more easier. Apparently Samsung has disabled Service Mode for some Note 10.1 (2014 edition) devices.

Download the Service Mode Shortcut app by following this link: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kabasoft.util.servicemodeshortcut

I have the same tablet - bought from Amazon and using Straight Talk as my carrier. I'm not willing to root in fear of bricking my device. Is there or will there ever be another route for me to get LTE?

I can't connect to AT&T, but I get hspa and hspa+ through AT&T microcell... which I never signed up to get.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] roosta:
Great app! Tried this on my P605 (Australia). Auto selected in the options was LTE/GSM auto. Changed to LTE/GSM/CDMA and made no difference...turned on LTE only and did the OOKLA speed test just outside my house and it performed 4 times better! It should be said 4G in my area isn't strong at the moment.

[General Questions and Answers] HardlyRock:
Hi developers, majority of us are asking or complaning about the boot loop errors. Can you please tell us that if there file 'build.prop' could make according to requirements of a specific android device. According to me, this file has creating problems of bootloop as changes are accidently made in this file

Any suggestions/steps will highly appreciated.

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] HardlyRock:
No one can answer this or tell me the procedure..? How to resolve this..?
[General Questions and Answers] TheArc:
Wait. Did you change the build.prop yourself or what?

If I helped, don't hesitate to hit that Thanks button ;)
[General Questions and Answers] HardlyRock:
Can we make that file on our own according to the specific device? which creates mainly the problem of bootloop I think..
[General Questions and Answers] TheArc:
Its hard to understand what you mean, if you speak another language just say it in your language after you say it in English. I'll use a translator.

But I'll try and answer it ? You can make a build.prop on your own, it isn't really hard to do so.

If I helped, don't hesitate to hit that Thanks button ;)
[General Questions and Answers] HardlyRock:
I have Samsung Galaxy Fame duos (GT-S6812). Can you just simply tell me how to make original build.prop file for my device? So bootloop error doesn't occur again in my device.
[General Questions and Answers] TheArc:
Ohhhh you don't need to make an original one, firstly the ROM you're using whether its stock or custom. Download the same ROM to your desktop, open the .zip and extract the build.prop file from it.

Once extracted, boot your device into recovery, and then use the following command.

adb push /path/to/file/build.prop /system

If it doesn't allow it you may need to mount it as read write.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superluig164:
BEFORE YOU READ ANYTHING, please note that I have ALREADY TRIED to no avail.

Hi guys,

If anyone could please help me with this, that'd be great. So, I have mounted /system as read-write numurous ways, a terminal emu, an app, and adb. I also heard somewhere that "chmod 777 /system" may help with permissions. I did all that. Second, I mounted using ES and retrieved my own sound to replace "TW_Touch" and "S_HW_Touch.ogg." However, once the copy/paste operation is complete, if I try to play the file to make sure it worked, there's no sound in the file anymore. Basically the file is silenced the moment it goes into /system/media/audio/ui. Can anyone help me here?

Thanks in advance,

Danger ahead

Hello everybody,

I wanted to warn you, I followed this guide and after doing the root procedure my phone is bricked DEAD.

Won't turn on, won't do anything, not even charghing when power plug is connected, I just killed my phone after about 30 minutes of ownership. :/

PLEASE WAIT A LITTLE BIT BEFORE DOING THIS.

My phone is a grey ZTE Grand S II (NBA Edition, from what I see on the box...).

Does anybody here have an idea HOW I could get this back from the dead? :angel:

*** UPDATE ***

I was able to make it work!! Sorry for sounding so alarmed before... I was in panic mode.

If this doesn't work at first please try it on another PC, or switch USB port, and make yourself a big favor by using this:

http://visualgdb.com/UsbDriverTool/

to install your Android ADB driver.

The ZTE Grand S II (S291) is a GREAT handset and I hope the devs get interested because it's one of the BEST prcie/value ratio around...

Got it for 280 € on Aliexpress...

Thank You.

S.
[Android General] jozco313:
Oh , that's not good , but no one bricked the phone to time...

But please look at the titile, have you the ZTE GRAND SII (s251) or the ZTE GRAND SII LTE (s291) because they're completely different phones.
[Android General] Simmessa:
Difference?

Hello Jozco,

I don't know, but I finally managed to get it back from the dead, by removing the battery and re-connecting it to the power plug, I can now turn it on again...

In About phone under model number it says ZTE S291.

I found something strange, when I issue a "adb reboot bootloader" command the phone goes off and dead, I have to detach the battery to be able to turn it on again... any ideas?

The phone has a NBA logo on the box, a gray cover, and I got it here:

http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6097854185.html

Do you have any clues, I'm going crazy... :eek:

THANKS!

S.
[Android General] jozco313:
Oh so , that’s seems to be only a ADB driver problem, had it also , because i had a lot of phones to flash , my drivers were mixed up...

just download this: http://visualgdb.com/UsbDriverTool/

install it , open it , plug your phone to the pc , you will see ZTE Handset ADB Interface click on it and under Android ADB driver click install , this will install the universal ADB driver it should work.

I hope we get your phone rooted ;)
[Android General] Simmessa:
I did the steps you suggested but that didn't change anything :(

The driver situation is ok, as you can see from the screenshot, yet, it WON'T reboot in the bootloader.

Whenever I issue a "adb reboot bootloader" it simply dies... and I have to remove battery.

Obviously I can't make fastboot work this way, therefore I can't move further, any tips?

Thank You!

S.

[Android General] jozco313:
I mean this:

BTW did you checked USB debbuging , when you have connected your phone in the connection type have you checked Connect to PC software

?
[Android General] Simmessa:
Yes, that's what I did! Then the software asked me to replace adb_usb.ini and perform adb kill-server, which I did...

C:\Windows\system32>adb kill-server

C:\Windows\system32>adb devices

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

List of devices attached

d70ec4e0 device

I can confirm USB debugging is enabled and my connection mode is "Connect to PC software".

I checked and re-did everything twice and still, adb reboot bootloader makes my phone die: screen black, no lights and won't even turn on unless I remove the battery...

If I'm doing something wrong, I really don't know what it is :(

Ideas?

S.
[Android General] jozco313:
I really don´t know :/ , when you can try it on another PC...
[Android General] Simmessa:
Later today I'll do another attempt with another PC I have at home, but I tend to believe this is related to the ZTE device itself, it's actually very strange that the bootloader is not responding, could it be faulty or simply that the bootloader has been wiped in some way?

I know it doesn't make a lot of sense since the phone itself is booting into ZTE Android just fine... but I'm left wondering, if things continue this way I'm gonna return it and ask my money back...

I'll let you know as soon as I can do some more testing, Thanks a lot for now!

S.
[Android General] Simmessa:
no way...

I tried again, from another PC with windows 7 32bit but same story again... after reboot it's dead and I must do the battery trick.

Here's my plan:

On my phone there's OS v B04 (please see screenshot)

So I'm planning to install v B06 which I got from ZTE support website...

What do you think? I'm hoping this will fix my broken bootloader!

Thanks!

LATEST update:

I don't know why but I re-did the whole procedure with the second PC and WITHOUT explanation this time it worked like a charme... SORRY for wasting your time, but I'm not even sure WHY this time it worked... the only thing I did was switching a couple of usb ports and using the driver supplied by USBdrivertool (The link can found above in this thread)

So, if you have problems with this procedure PLEASE KEEP THE FAITH and you'll eventually do it!

THANK YOU everybody and especially jozco313 for the help and assistance!

S.
[Android General] jozco313:
You are welcome :) I help when i can.

But i told you it can’t be the bootloader , because without it would be the device totally broken , you wouldn’t be able to turn on your phone.

BTW you can Update/Edit your first post in this thread , you know some people maybe get scared of buying this phone , and remember when the number of users will raise the development will be also better.

Hi Jozco,

sure you're right, I edited my post 'cause all is doing good now, this phone blows my mind!
