Hi guys,

Today i got a 4g replacement sim card from Vodafone. Everything seems to be ok until i make first call. If i try to call any number appears "call ended" immediately. I use B3 and is working in LTE only the internet. Why i cannot call? I called again customer care and everything is ok regarding my sim, this is what they told me. If i try to dial *100# to enter in the Vodafone menu, i receive on screen "Undefined additional service"

Contact customer care... The problem could be from my phone? I dial 319712358 then 774632 then i see KT Hidden menu-- Here in KT menu are some settings for LTE but i don't want to touch until i'm not sure what i'm doing.

Any ideas guys about my problem?

Thank you!

First Test

-----------

I think 4G is only for data not for calls because i made a test in LTE Preffered Mode.

a) select from network menu LTE Preferred after that dial *#0011# than check what is written in service mode.

If LTE is ok after that:

b) press one time the white button where is the fingerprint sensor to minimize the service mode menu

c) dial any number and during the call check if it's still LTE or WCDMA or GSM by pressing the left capacitive sensor button to maximize the service mode. If LTE, i have a problem with my phone... because my phone is going automatically to WCDMA.

If i make a call my phone is going from LTE to WCDMA and internet is switched to H+ and if a end the call i see on screen that is changing automatically to LTE so the internet is working in LTE.

Second test

--------------

a) Dial 319712358 then 774632 for SM-G906K users and for SM-G906S users the pin is 996412

b) Activate only B3 or choose the frequency of your carrier for 4G. Don't select any preferred band.

c) Dial any number and check if you can make a call and also check *#0011# than see what is written in service mode.

I would like to compare my SM-G906S with yours. I don't want to toch any other settings until i'm not sure that is 100% a problem from my settings.

Thanks guys!

I forgot to say, i want to add band 20 for 4G. I will use the nv calculator and EFS professional. I will add the band but how i select it manually from the network list?

Using s5 prime and having problems with my GPS taking very long to get a fix and once it does.. It looses it's signal do we have a fix to this. Many thanks

Download 'Faster GPS' from Google Playstore, then choose your region and it will help with the GPS issue.

I don't understand your policy ... if you leak a rom, it can be easy to mod it for no risk for the leaker ...

not cool to do that ... with leak we can cook rom, we are waiting for something you have ...
[Galaxy S 5 General] marius240288:
Sorry for replying here

"zac69000""

Yes i flashed as well the modem but still the same, i cannot call. If i use for example band B3 only for 4G in manual selection, can i make a call or not? VoLTE (Voice over LTE) has to be enabled by the network carrier to be possible to make a call only in 4G or not ? Here in Romania i use Vodafone.

Hy guys!

If i don't bother you too much, could you please make a backup of NV items between 0 and 65535 for SM-G906S, (this is available only for the owners of SM-G906S not K or L) with EFS professional because i want to compare it with my NV items. Around two weeks ago i modified some values in NV items and i'm not sure if i did the corrent modification because now my cellphone is not working properly in Network Selection - Automatic mode. All the time i use manual mode and 3G. If i select automatic mode, when i call somebody, sometimes is switching automatic from WCDMA to GSM900 or GSM1800 and i cannot hear in the earpiece or speaker anymore the other person. After that i select manual WCDMA and everything is ok...

Thank you!

Hi

I have the same problem when i make 2g calls.i cant hear anything. On 3g calls everything is ok..ty
[Galaxy S 5 General] marius240288:
regarding 2g calls, did you modify any NV Items to add more bands or it's untouched? The problem is, i'm not sure if other people have the same problem with 2G calls... You are the second one who has this problem.

Is there somebody else who has this problem? (The problem is: The caller cannot hear in anymore in his earpiece the voice of the called person).

GPS not working like it's supposed to

Just got my zerolemon battery with tpu case. Installed zerolemon on my s5 prime and Tried the gps and it fixs/locks faster than having the orginal back cover on... Wondering what diffrence it makes.. But it sure is working and better now without the orignal back cover..

I have tried almost all the tips and tricks i could find in google and xda and of course sir battle heros advice.. Unfortunately it Did not make it work.. So i guess its just the back cover case i was having problems with.. Thanks guys..

Well I'm glad the issue is resolved, not sure why the back cover would affect the GPS.

Ia there a way to delete the stock apps that come pre installed?

[Galaxy S 5 General] botwa2000:
You can delete pre-installed apps only if you're rooted. Then you can use Titanium Backup or a similar app to delete the bloatware.

Thanks for the tip. I want to stay unrooted for now so I can get android 5 update thru OTA.

[Galaxy S 5 General] DeejayTelis:
I have started to freak out. As I can't seem to get LTE working on my (SKTelecoms G906S, with this patched custom ROM and modem, and the unofficial philztouch recovery).

I am in Greece, and my Carrier is Cosmote GR which supports bands 1800Mhz and 2600Mhz on LTE. I thought they were enabled on my device already, but they weren't. I blah blah changed Band preference to Automatic on the hidden SKT Hidden Menu, and nothing. So I said I'll try one of the guides here on XDA to add LTE Bands by adding values to my NV Memory. I used the Qualcomm NV Band Calculator to get the values and used QXDM and QPST to NV Browser and modify the values adding the ones I wanted (1800Mhz and 2600Mhz). Rebooted and still nothing all I ever get is HSPA and HSPAP. I am running out of ideas, and can't figure out what is wrong. Please If there is someone that can help me, and enlighten me on what to do to get LTE working on my carrier Cosmote GR I'll be forever in his debt.

Thank you in advance people.
[Galaxy S 5 General] botwa2000:
Have you checked with your network carrier there might be a problem with your SIM or mobile plan? Does your SIM gets LTE in other devices?

There's also a relevant thread here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2948822
[Galaxy S 5 General] DeejayTelis:
Thank you for your quick and prompt reply, I contacted my carrier Cosmote GR, they said that LTE 4G is already active on my SIM card. I haven't tested it on another device (will do shortly). And about the guide you also said, I've tried him too but nothing, It just looks like LTE is not supported by my phone, how can I check which frequencies are supported?
[Galaxy S 5 General] vdrums:
Hi all,

I am also in Greece and I have Vodafone GR and LTE works perfect. Look the screenshot and choose the preferred bands on the hidden SKT menu. But the problem here is that when i talk and there is not at least 3G or LTE I have problem and I can hear anything from my other part of the line. Has anyone find any solution in this case? I know that many times in this forum other people have the same problem.

How did you get to this menu? My settings are all 'auto select' and I haven't got the issue that you're describing...
[Galaxy S 5 General] DeejayTelis:
Never mind guys, thanks, it's the card's problem as I used another one from Vodafone and it worked.

About the SKT menu: dial 319712358

and pass is 774632 or 996412

I guess now I'd have to call and complain to Cosmote...
[Galaxy S 5 General] irresisti:
I had exactly the same. Been trying high and low. Called the provider and they said they would activate LTE for me in 15minutes. Mow finally working here to.
[Galaxy S 5 General] botwa2000:
Glad I could help.

You can always get a firmware update through Kies even if you're rooted. I normally even prefer it that way.

...unless you want to remain un-rooted altogether even after the upgrade.
[Galaxy S 5 General] irresisti:
Did not know it could be done thru Kies and retaining the root.
[Galaxy S 5 General] botwa2000:
No, you'll lose root. Gonna have to root again after the upgrade.
[Galaxy S 5 General] irresisti:
Ok Thanks.

guess everything will be backed up and reatored also thru kies then?
[Galaxy S 5 General] DeejayTelis:
Yeah, the problem is that they say LTE is already activated on my SIM card. My guess, their signal is weaker than Vodafone's ( whose 4G worked on my G906S) and so I only get wcdma. Also when I try a Network provider search, I can see 3 options one is W/G Cosmote the other is W/G wind and the last is L/W/G Vodafone. L probably stands for LTE, W for WCDMA and G for GSM.
[Galaxy S 5 General] aayush.garg:
Hi, I have the G906S rooted. When the lollipop update comes out, you are saying I can just update using Kies despite me being rooted. I don't mind losing root access after updating but will all my data still remain the same or will it be like a fresh install?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 5 General] botwa2000:
All your settings will be retained regardless whether you upgrade via Kies or flash the new ROM from Sammobile as long as you don't wipe the data/cash.

Normally I update via Kies though

sometimes it doesn't like it if you've got custom recovery and so doesn't let you update. In such case I take the ROM from Sammobile. I never lost any settings through this procedure.

---------- Post added at 20:10 ---------- Previous post was at 20:06 ----------

You can run a full backup in Kies regardless whether you're rooted or not.

If you upgrade via Kies your user data will remain intact unless you do a factory reset or wipe everything.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Battlehero:
I would recommend a clean install since you would be updating to a major base change. I have had battery drain issues and over all performance issues in the past when updating between major Android versions.
[Galaxy S 5 General] botwa2000:
I do a dirty install first. It's such a pain in the backside to restore all apps and settings:mad:

I only perform reset if I absolutely must and there's no other way. Sometimes even major upgrades work properly and a dirty install isn't always a bad thing.
[Galaxy S 5 General] irresisti:
It's true that these days flashing a new rom (firmware) without wiping all data is more stable then it was a couple of years ago.

To me, Gravitybox Xposed module is more important than lollipop. Not sure what issues lollipop will bring. (Like the sd card write issue in Kit Kat) Hopefully Gravitybox will have a lollipop version by then. I use Gravitybox to customize many things. One of my favourite is setting "hold back button to switch to Last App Used". Super useful. It's like the Alt + Tab button in Windows.

I have it working with Xblast tools and Wanam. However, what I did was to make Gravitybox the primary app for changes. so whatever gravitybox can achieve, I will not turn on the setting for the other two. I have minimum things I need from the other two anyway.

One useful thing I benefitted from gravitybox widget was the GPS toggle. It has a toggle for GPS to switch from power saving to accurate mode. (How our GPS toggle used to work in jelly bean)With Kit kat, this toggle is only found in the location settings. So it's quite troublesome to toggle.
