[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
You need to find what build you were on because you can't flash an older build. You can only flash your original build or newer. If you want the latest OTA, (Kit Kat), you need to download the .tar file for that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Portisface:
I am currently downloading Kit Kat. However, I was trying to flash it one more time to copy and paste the message lines here and now the error is "There is no PIT partition." I have already downloaded the PIT for my phone. I am I gonna have to use that now?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
I think you might me be over complicating things. If you're going with NC5 (Kit Kat) and you can use Odin, I think all you're going to need is the .tar file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Portisface:
So the "no PIT partition" message isn't a problem?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ibuprophen:
It looks like you are trying to unlock the wrong baseband version.

The only Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 (SCH-I545), aka jfltevzw, that has an unlockable bootloader is the one that has the baseband version "I545VRUAMDK".

And once the baseband is updated to a newer one, it cannot be downgraded.
[Moto X Q&A] seandarcy:
I've got a an unlocked rooted VZW DE. I'm going to Europe. Is the phone SIM unlocked ?? Can I just insert a European sim card ?

IOW, does an unlocked bootloader also unlock the sim card ? Or do I have to spend an hour talking to Verizon?

Thanks,

sean

After talking with VZW, they tell me the phone comes SIM inlocked! Interesting if true. I'll find out next week.

sean
[Moto X Q&A] HeroOfTime:
Any Verizon LTE phone should automatically be sim unlocked without the bootloader being unlocked due to Block C agreements requiring Verizon to allow any compatible phone to use the network. Since LTE is basically the evolution of GSM, most (I won't say all, because there may be an exception) LTE devices have GSM capabilities. Verizon can't legally sim lock the LTE radios, so they have just stopped sim locking global phones.

tl;dr Yes, it is by default sim unlicked. Just throw in the sim and update apn settings if necessary (they may be preprogrammed). You probably won't have LTE, but HSPA (and, I assume, HSPA+) should work fine.

Edit: I just reread and realized that you had updated the post with what I just said... You can ignore this.
[Moto X Q&A] seandarcy:
No. I appreciate the background. And really pleased it confirmed what Verizon said.

Is there a list someplace of the APN s for French providers? I can just imagine trying to find it out from the kiosk manager using my French!

Sean
[Moto X Q&A] HeroOfTime:
I think they may have that information on the provider's website. You may want/need to plan ahead to determine what carriers are there (which you probably know already) and check out their sites, or you can probably Google '[Carrier Name] apn settings' and find it that way. I've never been in a situation to change the apn settings, but I think once you insert the new sim, the setting is available under Settings > Wireless and Networks > More... > Mobile Network Settings > Access Point Names.

Hello, i own an S2 for more then 1 year and i want to change the firmware but i want to know from those who modified the rom wich 1 is better

I was thinking about 4.2.2 or the kitkat 4.4.2

Does those firmware improve the phone speed or they are eating more processor and memory?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mosespl:
Your thread is illegal from xda.rules. There is no better rom. You must install couple of roms and decided which one is better for yourself. I can recommend you wizzedkat rom based on stock 4.1.2 and about kitkat you can use whatever you want i dont have expierence with kitkat i had pound rom and omni and beanstalk and every work very good but also had little bugs.

Hi guys,

Previously, when i am using my Z2 (.55), I noticied that when there is a small link in a Web page Im trying to open,Google Chrome shows a small window, kinda magnifying glass that shows an enlarge preview of the link. It makes it easier to click on those small links in the page.

After I upgraded to .402, i can't seem to make it appear again. Does anyone noticed this. Is it the new firmware or related to a Chrome update. I am also thinking maybe it can be that with the new firmware Z2 screen has better prediction on where we intend to click. Thanks in advance!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
I think they could have removed the feature, i reverted to 55 (from 402 because im returning device) and have updsted chrome since and it seems its no longer a feature

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Heretocracy:
I've had my Nexus 7 2013 for about half a year and it's had micro-usb issues for a month or so before this, but now it is completely impossible to transfer files or connect to my PC as a storage device. The charging icon will remain active, and it will charge, but it simply either doesn't register, or if I repeatedly insert the micro-USB, the "Connected as MTP" will pop up but quickly go away. My PC tries to install the driver but shortly closes after it registers that the tablet has disconnected.

It isn't the cord as I've tried it with multiple, so I'm moderately sure it's the tablet USB port. Is there any way I could fix this without having to get a replacement and if not, how do I go about replacing it?

Thanks in advance for any help. Anything is appreciated.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Rahul721:
A couple of my friends Nexus 7's also got its charging port damaged. I wouldnt advise you to fix it by yourself as it's risky. Carry it by a repair shop. I know that the Usb port is located on a separate board and not with the cpu etc so its not hard/expensive to fix.

I purchased a XDA Atom Exec in Thailand and now live in the UK. Am I able to use the phone in the UK with a UK sim? I am considering moving to Canada, will I have problems using my XDA there?

How do I set the data connection in the auto configuator to UK or Canada, it seems only Asian countries are listed.

It would be disappointing if I cannot use my XDA in Europe or in North America.

[HTC Rezound] TecMan45:
Hi pball52998:

Thanks for your reply...maybe I need to do the following:

1. Flash Rezound_4.03.605.2_Global_PH98IMG,zip first to get Baseband version 2.22.10.0801r, 2.22.10.0803r

2. Flash new.global.firm.PH98IMG.zip to get Baseband version 2.23.10.0123r, 2.23.10.0124r

I'm not sure which version of HBOOT to be my Rezound.

Can you help me to clarify my doubts?

Thanks

TecMan
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Although I would recommend going back to stock, and doing the full downgrade/upgrade process, you are S-OFF, so in reality you can just flash the firmware and radios, update recovery (You should be using the latest verison of PhilZ, CWM, or TWRP) then wipe and flash ROM... If you have issues, you are S-OFF, you could just downgrade/upgrade then.
[HTC Rezound] TecMan45:
Hi acejavelin:

Thanks for your reply...let me see if I understand...

1. Go back to CleanROM GBE 1.6.5.zip (stock)

2. Flash new.global.firm.PH98IMG.zip to get Baseband version 2.23.10.0123r, 2.23.10.0124r and HBOOT-2.28.0000

3. Flash Recovery update (PhilZ, CWM, or TWRP)

4. Flash B66-commotio-vigor-052814.zip ROM

Questions:

a. Is the procedure is correct?

b. In you opinion, What is the best Recovery update?

c. What else do you recommend me to get my Rezound with Software version 4.4.2 and Global Network?

Thanks in advanced

TecMan
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
a. Pretty much... I don't see the point of going back to "stock"ish (CleanROM is NOT stock) if you aren't going to go through the whole downgrade/upgrade procedure though

b. fastboot flash recovery is the best method IMHO

c. nothing, you would be there... If you are looking at GSM coverage through, the Rez is really lacking in that department.

If you have any issues, be ready to RUU though... Sometimes this can cause unexpected issues, such as emmc (internal SD) getting corrupted and RUU will restore it, true EXE RUU, not the flashable ZIPs that are called RUUs but really are not.

Being S-OFF really makes this a simple procedure, and if for some reason it fails, easy to fix.
[HTC Rezound] TecMan45:
Hi acejavelin:

Thanks again for your reply...let me write the procedure reviewed...

1. Flash new.global.firm.PH98IMG.zip to get Baseband version 2.23.10.0123r, 2.23.10.0124r and HBOOT-2.28.0000

2. Flash Recovery update (PhilZ, CWM, or TWRP)

3. Flash B66-commotio-vigor-052814.zip ROM

Questions:

a. Is the procedure is correct?

b. Which of the three options (PhilZ, CWM, or TWRP) do you recommend me? the current recovery is RA-VIGOR v.3.1.0-getitnowmarketing

c. with my current ROM (ConROMV6) after I type *#*#4636#*#* and change to GSM only, My Rezound don't take a GSM signal (I have a chip v5.0 into) but in the past, I got the GSM signal but right now I can't. What do you recommend me to fix this problem?

Thanks in advanced

TecMan
[HTC Rezound] bacon612:
Although its been a while, I think that there is a possibility of bricking if you don't have the right hboot and radio combo. There's a thread in here somewhere describing which work and which don't. Someone else chime in if I am incorrect here. I've just always done it the safe way and used the android police ruu
[HTC Rezound] TecMan45:
Hi bacon612:

Thanks for your reply and thanks for your advice...after I flashed Flash Rezound_4.03.605.2_Global_PH98IMG,zip My Rezound will get Baseband version 2.22.10.0801r, 2.22.10.0803r...the big question is...

How can I get Baseband version 2.23.10.0123r, 2.23.10.0124r and HBOOT-2.28.0000?

Thanks

TecMan
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
You are putting too much thought into this... there is almost ZERO chance of bricking since you are S-OFF... if you are going to flash a complete RUU-style ZIP like you are mentioning, you should lock your bootloader first (no worries, you are S-OFF, unlocked is not really important it just makes a few things easier).

All you need to do is flash the firmware/radio package you mentioned earlier, update recovery from Amon Ra to something current, wipe and flash ROM. DONE.

---------- Post added at 12:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:24 PM ----------

a. Yes, exactly

b. I like TWRP, many people prefer PhilZ recently, it's personal preference... they all do the same thing.

c. GSM is tricky, the Rezound has very poor GSM radios, even with the current firmware may people can only get 2G/Edge. Personally, I would go back to STOCK (not a stock-ish ROM) by following the full downgrade/upgrade procedure that [MENTION=5037435]REV3NT3CH[/MENTION] has to update to the current firmware and verify GSM operation stock, then flash custom recovery, and custom ROM and test.

It is important to note that GSM is questionable at best on the Rezound without some radio tuning... if you are looking for a GSM handset and planning on using the Rezound, you may be disappointed... [MENTION=5037435]REV3NT3CH[/MENTION] has done some serious work on this, but it is still not perfect. I tried this for a while and gave up and bought a true-GSM handset. With the Moto E at $129 and the Moto G at $179 to $219 depending on variant, it is better to just grab a solid GSM specific phone than to try to get the Rezound to be a GSM daily driver... my 2¢ worth on that topic, I chose the Nexus 4 16GB when it was on sale for $199.

BTW, my son has the Moto G 16GB GPE, he loves it... the battery life is phenomenal, better than my G2, with almost 7.5 hours of screen-on time!!! If my N4 ever fails, I am going for the G myself.

2. The current version of recovery-ra-vigor-3.16-gnm.img.zip...question...I just need to flash it after flash the Stock ROM? current recovery is RA-VIGOR v.3.1.0-getitnowmarketing

Hi acejavelin:

Thanks again for your reply...let me write the last procedure for your review

1. Flash rezound_AndroidPolice_4.03.605.2_PH98IMG.zip to get Baseband version 2.22.10.0801r, 2.22.10.0803r1 and check the GSM signal

2. Flash recovery-ra-vigor-3.16-gnm.img.zip to get RA-VIGOR 3.16

3. new.global.firm.PH98IMG.zip to get Baseband version 2.23.10.0123r, 2.23.10.0124r and HBOOT-2.28.0000

4. Flash B66-commotio-vigor-052814.zip ROM

I'm not sure about "TWRP 2.7.0.0 touch recovery" if I can install from Play Store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager) over RA-VIGOR 3.16...What's your opinion?

Thanks in advanced for your help.

TecMan
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
That will work I guess...

You could go straight to a newer recovery though, no need to flash Amon Ra at all. You can get the TWRP zip here (2.6.3.0 is sufficient) or PhilZ here

I noticed that the phone number info Build is always 6.2.B.1.96, but if I flashed with "XperiaS_LT26i_6.2.B.0.211_KernelOnly", should change, right?

Help me

N.B:

The first time that i run "runme_win" without rights of administrator, the dos told me: "STARTING,WAITING FOR DEVICE,daemon not runnig, starting it now, daemon started successfully" then stops at this point and you can not do anything but close the program."

While the second time with rights of admministrator: "No such file or directory, is come out different times with several files"

EDIT: I solved, I tried again without administrator rights, I got this errors:

After this errors, everything is gone well, the SuperSU app is on my devices and work well, I continue to flash again the kernel as the guide says.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Yeah, that run as administrator messes up a lot, You have to run it normally. So You got rooted and have a recovery, right?

Huh. Weird. You have to press volume up when You see the blue LED while booting. Try pressing it 2-3 times consecutively.

The unique thing, is that, with the Installation of CM11 through CWM recovery, after the CM11 is started, I tried to go in recovery but instead of the CWM recovery there was the TWRP recovery... however all good, the recovery work well as the CWM.

Now im fiding the best rom for the Xperia S, do you have some advice?
