[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MustangCobraGTMan:
I explored CWMR and found that I can mount my sd card and when I do it shows the partitions I made. Would I be able to flash a custom rom to the external while I was mounted to it?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MustangCobraGTMan:
I cannot figure out how to edit my rom for dual boot. I'm using Baked Black Bean 6 and want that on the external so I can have the stock rom on the internal. The partitions are made on the sd card. I was able to run convert.sh through cygwin on Windows 7 and everything said it failed but was complete. After it was finished i flashed it in recovery and when i rebooted I think it flashed the internal because it stayed on the boot animation. The convert process did fail. Any help?? Thanks.

I'm plannng on purchasing a new T-Mobile Note 3 and use on an existing ATT line.And also eventually want it rooted and don't want to trip KNOX.

Questions:

1. Do I need to activate it on T-Mobile first for any reason?

2. Should I unlock first or root first.?

3.What's the best way to unlock, (if at all possible) have T-Mobile give you unlock code, use pay online service (if cost not an issue) or some free method described on this forum?

4. Is Root de la Vega the best way to root? Any risks?

Thanks

I was curious about that as well. Since I had to work out South near Arkansas and they seem to have nothing but at@t towers and a few Verizon.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ProFragger:
Hi,

I'll try to answer since I'm trying to do the same thing:

1. I don't think that you should or should matter

2. If you can get the code from Tmo or buy it, then have the option unlock first. If not and you want to use something like Region Lock Away, you have to Root first. As a rule of thumb though, since I use many different carrier phones on other carriers, I try to as stock as possible, while trying to set up on the new carrier. Which means.. Unlock first, if you can.

3. I'd imagine getting the code from Tmo or ordering it online is the safest KNOX trip free course..

4. Depending on the firmware you have, the safe methods or even working methods, change... For example if you're on NB4 like me, then there is no KNOX safe method, but to Kies to NE4 and root with Towlroot

Good luck Sir...

Did you have to sign up for any kind of (non) contract for them to give you the unlock code?

How long did you have the phone before they gabe you the unlock code?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] noobtoob:
Supposedly you need to have the phone activated on the t mobile network for 45 days. If it gets paid off anytime afterwards all you need to do is request the unlock code. Calling and giving them your imei number they can look up the phone and tell you if you can get it unlocked. From that point it takes anywhere from 2 to 7 business days. You get the unlock code in your email.

The only bad scenario I can see is if you bought it off of someone who called it in and reported it stolen or lost. Then you must go through alternative sources to get your Sim unlocked.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] loveageek:
Anyway besides getting an unlock code to sim unlock? On NB4. What if I upgrade to NF1? If not, is there ANYWAY to downgrade back to the original JB 4.3?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kabuk1:
1. Do I need to activate it on T-Mobile first for any reason?

Nope.

2. Should I unlock first or root first.?

Depends how you plan to unlock. If you use the method that I mention in the next answer, you have to root first. If you use any other method, it doesn't matter.

3.What's the best way to unlock, (if at all possible) have T-Mobile give you unlock code, use pay online service (if cost not an issue) or some free method described on this forum?

RegionLock Away is the easiest method, IMO. About $3 in the Play store.

4. Is Root de la Vega the best way to root? Any risks?

I don't know anything about this method as I rooted before it came out, so I can't answer this one.

So I recently bought a phone off of Kiijiji,... yeah I know bad idea don't get me started :(

I did a lot of searching and the phone is unlocked but will not connect to my providers network, telus, and I am using their network mode, WCDMA.

Now I have a feeling that the problem lies in the Baseband version. I did a google search on it but it came up with only 2 results. One being a random forum talking about how to root a Chinese phone so I assumed the phone itself was from China (a counterfeit or not) either way all the phones that come from China have dual sim, which mine does not.

This brings me to my question, does anyone know where or what the baseband model G900ZCUBMI3 is ?

no but that proves that your download mode is broken, if you still have custom recovery then you need to flash the restore download mode from xdabbeb then you should be able to boot into download mode, if you don't have custom recovery then use autorec for vs980 and after flashing recovery power off and try booting into download mode and you should boot into download mode

1/8 2100, 4th list w 2014-05-13 FW

At least the 512/4 2100 had terrible sound quality especially in calls, but they at least had some functions. There are multiple threads about that.

Some early 1/8 2100 reported the mic worked fine also in calls.

My device does not record anything at all (other than static noise). Even tapping on the device gives no recording.

Cannot find any settings. (Tried some sound recorders, camrecorders from Play and UltimateAudio from Ostore).

Cannot see any residue in the mic hole, but tapping on the device should make something register if the mic was working.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Ozpeter:
My mic/sound issues were fixed by ensuring that "Quick Boot" is turned off, then reboot. Of course you may already have tried that.
[Ornate TrueSmart] trent999:
Your mic is maybe just cold-soldered to the main board or some other assembly-related problem. Could also be a defective mic assembly. Ask nicely and LLPen may allow you to return it at your expense to China so they can send out a replacement.
[Ornate TrueSmart] gerhardo:
Thanks for the tip. Fastboot is for sure off, but I occasionally use soft reboot. But this is not the issue.
[Ornate TrueSmart] gerhardo:
Seems like this is the solution.

However, postage from Sweden and the likely added customs and courier cost may exceed the value of the TS.

But the device will not work as intended, I want to use as a running backup. I will not run with a BT headset...

PRL's are not as... Important anymore though it seems. (used to be easier to update too by hand... anyways.)

I'm seeing that there are new PRL's available for my note 2, and i'm getting some odd service issues (and lack of 4g working, but its connecting to it)

And without the ability to use pound codes on custom roms, it can be a bit of a pain.

What is the current PRL that people are using here?

Does anyone have a good trusted download source for it?

(http://prl.digiblur.com/) This is what I found, but it's been so long since I've manually updated PRL's that I dont remember if this was the site to use or not.

http://androidforums.com/transform-ultra-all-things-root/632275-diy-how-change-your-prl.html

Are the instructions given here good to use?

The ones I'm finding here at XDA are saying note 3 and s4/5 and such.

I dont want to deal with a brick, so I'd rather ask the question. Lots of old threads on PRL stuff, but no dedicated PRL thread (that i can find) makes it a bit tough to get up to speed.
