I'm on the custom ROM. I've tried speed tests and I'm getting about 4.5 down 1.5 up. In my area LTE should be up around 25 Mbps down.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Israeli-Sparrow:
I have the g906k as I mentioned in previous posts.

I used t-mobile while staying in the US. Now using hot mobile in israel with no problems (just needed to define the right APN)
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
I'm going to try changing my APN one more time. How did you do the part of the setup that involves dialing #*#0011#?
[Galaxy S 5 General] Israeli-Sparrow:
Didn't need to
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
Really? I've even rooted to access the service menu, and I still can't get LTE service.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Israeli-Sparrow:
As someone mentioned earlier, no real need for rooting in order to get to that menu
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
I like to modify and install custom ROMs anyway, but I was trying to get my phone to work on LTE. I followed a set of instructions someone posted here to get on AT&T, but it didn't help. I saw that someone mentioned that it could be because it is not an AT&T device and I should give them a different device's IMEI
[Galaxy S 5 General] Israeli-Sparrow:
As i recall from a chat with t mobile support ppl, make sure you have the right APN definitions (the differ whether you are on 3g of lte) it might be the same case for att
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
I went into an AT&T store and had them set my APN for me. The emoloyee ended up taking it right from his S5 active. Since then I've changed it to automatic and ive been using the APN my phone defined on its own.
[Galaxy S 5 General] chungdae:

[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
I've read almost every comment, and I've searched through the thread many times. I can't find anything that works. I was looking for some more personalized help for my situation.
[Galaxy S 5 General] chungdae:
Is your APN set in networks?

Once your APN is set do this:

Do this at your own risk

Open the dial pad

Type: *#0011# to enter Service Mode (Be very careful with what you do here)

Once in Service Mode, do the following:

Tap the menu button and tap Back

Tap the menu button again and select "Key Input" and enter an upper case Q and press OK

Tap the menu button again and select "Key Input" and enter 4 zeroes (0000) and press OK

Wait from 5 to 15 seconds. You'll see the Main Menu

Choose option [2]: UE SETTING & INFO

Choose option [1]: SETTING

Choose option [1]: PROTOCOL

Choose option [2]: NAS

Choose option [1]: NETWORK CONTROL

Choose option [4]: BAND SELECTION SET THIS TO AUTOMATIC AND THEN EXIT

Press the back key to exit
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
I've tried that, but for some reason it hasn't worked. Maybe my APN settings are wrong? Do you know the proper APN settings for AT&T?
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
Every time I boot, I get a popup that says "failed to register to network." Also, the one APN that I have on the phone is usually not selected after booting.

What troubles are you having?
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
I can't connect to LTE on AT&T. I'm rooted and on the custom recovery. I've tried every method posted on this thread. Also, when I reboot, sometimes the APN is not selected.
[Galaxy S 5 General] chungdae:
Hmmm even this one:

go to network settings and check automatic. What are your APN settings? Do you have a newer sim card?
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
yes, I've tried that and my sim is new.
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
I get up to HSPA+ with these settings. When Bearer is set to LTE then I receive no data service at all.

Hello fellow. has gone official today the new version of AnTuTu v5. This store in play. but puts his device is not supported. I downloaded the apk and tried the test. but when looking at the graphs it stops. Has anyone been over to him? or will work fine? thanks and regards.
[Galaxy S 5 General] chungdae:
That's so strange. Mine goes LTE no problem and automatically sets ATT as preferred. Is that APN settings the only one you have? If not delete all others except the ATT one.
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
It is. The only reason I can think of for this is that AT&T uses the 850 LTE band in my area. If that's not it then there's something wrong with my device.
[Galaxy S 5 General] chungdae:
Hmmm from what I know the G906 series only uses 700 MHZ for ATT LTE.
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
I believe the only LTE band differences between the G906S and K are that the S has 850MHZ and the K has 900MHZ
[Galaxy S 5 General] chungdae:
When did ATT start using 850 LTE?
[Galaxy S 5 General] neilspenta:
Getting an S5 Prime to replace my Z2. Should get it next week.

Switched from T-Mobile to AT&T couple of days ago. Don't need unlimited LTE anyway
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
I may be wrong. I'm only assuming that because that is the only band the K doesn't have that the S does.
[Galaxy S 5 General] stevae:
this is correct. and att uses the 850. nobody in the states uses 900. we have 850, 1800 and 1900.
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
Theoretically wouldn't I be able to connect to the 1900 band? Why can I not use this?
[Galaxy S 5 General] chungdae:
This has been bothering me. I want to solve what's wrong with your phone and why it's not connecting to ATT LTE. Have you tried a hard reset?
[Galaxy S 5 General] stevae:
disregard, that message. my menu and app switcher wasn't working because of wanam not the rom.

[Galaxy S 5 General] manmohan0339:
no, in my view this mobile think that it is in roaming, so video call is not allowed by some settings....if we will able to flush international rom on it instead of Korean then it will work.

Did you try rooting your phone?
[Galaxy S 5 General] rayone:
Dirty under screen

Quick question for y'all.

Is your screen perfect?

Reason I ask is bcos my screen has a faint grey mark under the screen, it's like somebody got a pencil and touched the screen.

It's not visible with color back grounds, but one white (nearly all web sites) it's quite visible.

It's really hard taking photos of it the blemish, but it's ~1.5mm

This is what the eye sees

This is a closeup, there's also a dead green pixel.

Is wanam xposed working with G906S/K?
[Galaxy S 5 General] Shahshiminator:
Hey guys!

Just received my G906S today, and LTE works for me out of the box.

I just have a concern as to why I can't make any video calls though. (I'm in Singapore, using Carrier StarHub.)

Anyway, does anybody happen to know if an unbranded version of the firmware will be released for the G906S?

I would like to root my phone but prefer it to be as close to stock as possible.
[Galaxy S 5 General] tookie015:
If you would like to stay as close to stock as possible, I would recommend rooting your phone, install Titanium Backup and just freeze apps that you don't use. That way you'll stay on your current ROM and Modem but have less bloatware :D
[Galaxy S 5 General] FilyPhanatic:
Why freeze? Just uninstalling that crap and be done with it! Carriers need to learn their spots in life and just get the hell out of the way. Bloatware is getting to be rediculous, and branding is absurd. I don't need a carrier's logo in my software let alone on the back of my $700 phone. I mean it's bad enough that their pricing is outrageous.

Sorry for the ranting, but I think many people feel this way. Give me a thanks if you agree!
[Galaxy S 5 General] chungdae:
Get a warranty claim. Mine is perfect.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Shahshiminator:
Awesome responses guys! Thanks!

Anyway, was just curious as to why I can't make video calls, then I noted that someone mentioned that the phone believes that it is perpetually in "Roaming Mode".

Do we have to manually change some settings for this to work?

Thank you everyone in advance for your responses!

Edit: I just saw this on miscom's thread, and thought it would be useful for anyone else coming across this post and asking the same question..

If I just rooted and did nothing else, I would be able to access those files right?
[Galaxy S 5 General] miscom:
Thank you [MENTION=1332871]prodigiez[/MENTION]!

I flashed the unofficial CF Autoroot and the CMW Recovery that you posted on the first page. Both work great! You have no idea how happy that makes me.

Of course Knox is now 0x1!!!

Anyway, I made a custom ROM based on G906SKSU1ANFI. That ROM is rooted, Deodexed and has busybox. And of course KNOX Is removed too.

I am uploading the ROM to Android File Host and will post it here the link once is uploaded.

Rom s5 g906s

ROM MOVED TO ITS OWN THREAD

I made a new ODEX ROM and S Health is working.

Please refer to the OP to get instructions on how to do the initial root and install CMW Recovery.

Per the OP: Do not wipe/factory reset to install this ROM. That may damage your phone. Just install the ROM on top of your stock ROM.

I also tested doing a backup and a restore: It works fine.

As usual I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device.

ROM is rooted, ODEX, custom boot animation, and with Busybox. Also, I removed Knox.

Enjoy!

ROMS are non-wipe.

can i install cwm and flash the rom,cwm fully working?
[Galaxy S 5 General] miscom:
I did that exactly that and it's working in my G906S.

The script doesn't format the /system partition: It does a recursive delete. Also, the ROM doesn't wipe your data; so if you are coming from stock it should work with this ROM.

Per the OP: Do not wipe/factory reset to install this ROM. That may damage your phone. Just install the ROM on top of your stock ROM.
[Galaxy S 5 General] ContextM:
Very important thing is this phone to get cyanogenmod or omni rom. Them are one of the best, but a simple original android can be good too. Usually on the s4 they were around 20% faster than the samsung ones. Also kernels are needed. Then you can undervolt to get less heat and have more battery time. This is very popular on the nexus 5. As LG have betrayed us by putting a 801, instead of 805, this makes this S5 beeing the 1st 805 device. So hopefully it gets more votes to be put on the official cyanogen mod. Galaxy F/S5 Prime is not known if it will be released for now too.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Deezy88:

Right. You may need to remount / and /system read/write and you can do that with ES File Manager --> Menu --> Tools --> Root Explorer --> Mount R/W
[Galaxy S 5 General] nutttr:
Unfortunately that doesn't work... No idea why, it actually prevents MMS being generated but it mustn't be sending in a way that is compatible with the networks here as it's not being received :(
[Galaxy S 5 General] Shahshiminator:
Thanks miscom for your help!

Never mind that; previously I posted an issue with ODIN, but it's fine now.

Either way, does anybody know of a way to remove the T-Roaming function in Settings -> Network Connections?

Or does it happen to be something I can remove via Titanium Backup as well?

international version rom

Hi to everyone. I like to ask if there is already an international version stock rom available for the s5 prime and not just the Korean version? just so maybe with the international version, I can make 3g video calls. TIA :laugh:
[Galaxy S 5 General] ACTION GAMER:
hello guys

im iphone user actually but i like to buy s5 lte-a g906s switch to android im tired of ios , there is some of them on ebay the seller in korea they said the phone is unlocked

so that phone it works with all 4g networks in ireland becuase i live in ireland ?

i cheack that version of s5 its crazy i love to buying that i konw its new release but in later there is be more custom ROMs ? or more easy rooting like other galaxy devices ?

thank you for respond i really appreciate your advice guys
[Galaxy S 5 General] kms108:
apparently this is a korean only phone at present.

---------- Post added at 04:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:45 PM ----------

The international standard for phones to have dead and bright pixels is about 3-4 pixels, and i'm sure the phone needs to be returned to korea samsung for this if the phone if it has the stated pixels, as samsung does not provide international warranty, it's regional.
[Galaxy S 5 General] stevae:
yes. wanam exposed works very well on my 906s. make sure to do all the downloads, to have everything up to date. hope this helps.

here's the thing. he can do exactly as you have said with little problems, but why would he? the custom rom is so easy to load, and the stock rom that comes on these phones is buggie, and stutters a lot. once i rooted and switched to miscom's custom rom, everything worked much smoother and better. plus, you get rid of the korean language on the dialer, and my memory usage dropped way down to about 1.43gb to 1.63gb used. i recommend he go ahead and load the custom rom right over the top of the stock rom, and then use titanium backup to uninstall all apps he knows for sure that he doesn't want, and freeze all the ones that he is not so sure about, but thinks he doesn't want. make sure to run a back up on any app you are deleting or freezing. hope this helps.

first, as someone who use to have an iphone as well, YOU ARE MAKING THE RIGHT CHOICE. i thought my iphone was great, until i started looking at android phones. next, do not buy on ebay! some on here did so without a problem, but i have read many, many, many others who didn't get so lucky. you can get one on a site called t-dimension.com. they are cheaper and better than any of the other site selling them, that i have delt with. i definitely recommend t-dimension.com over all the other sites. and i also recommend the 906s, over the 906k. i had both, and the "s" worked much better than the "k". might have just been mine, but you never know.

yes, right now there is only this one custom rom that i know of, but in the very near future, there will be very many custom roms for this chipset and phone. but miscom has done a great job on this custom rom, so in the mean time, there is no reason to worry about a lot of other custom roms right now. i hope this helps you out.
[Galaxy S 5 General] ACTION GAMER:
thank you for repond dude

already i checked t-dimension.com unfortunately they don't have 906s they only got K version

so what's wrong with ebay i think ebay safer any website

what about 28mobile is that legit or scam?

and one more thing please for example that phone got 900 frequency on 3G and my network's 3g on 850 frequency still i get 3g ?
[Galaxy S 5 General] neilspenta:
I bought a G906L from dream-seller on eBay by mistake.

I hope they can refund me as I just ordered a G906S/K off 28Mobile.

[Galaxy S 5 General] Shahshiminator:
Well... An international stock ROM would be something I would hope to make too, if I could figure out if all the com.skt.(insert-whatever-here) items are safe to be removed. I think miscom's ROM would be the best closest idea to an "International" ROM.

I'm actually learning and trying to grab more documents off the internet about the CSC things; it seems that if we can manipulate or even create our own CSC file and have it loaded into our phones, a few functions will be unlocked.

I was thinking of cross referencing the CSC files of the G906S and the S5 International Variant. I'm guessing the codes used in the xml should not vary too much.

That being said, any kind seniors in forum want to share with me what they know about CSC / customer.xml file?
[Galaxy S 5 General] LuthorKid:
I think I might have bought a phone with a defect screen

I have been using this phone for almost a week now but I came across something that brought my attention.

1. The screen info can't recognise the density class of the phone.

2. The bible icon in my previous galaxy s4 was clearly showing lines separating each pages but on my G906S is not.

I just want to know am I the only experience this or is it a common factor in all G906S/K phones?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 5 General] tookie015:
