Hi Markee,

I've just done some testing with an N70, RAZR and my M3100 on Orange and another N70 on T-Mobile.

None of the devices on Orange can receive a business card although they all send OK and return a delivery report but nothing is received!!!

If I send from any device to the N70 on T-Mobile it is recieved every time so it looks like it's an Orange SMSC to Phone issue!!! might be worth calling their service desk on this.

Gav.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Markee:
Thanks Gavin!

Will get onto Orange.....

i bought a note 3 on craigslist. i called sprint to activate. they say its not showing up in the system. after 5 days of getting the run around i was told the phone had been flashed. the knox is 0x1 does that mean i cant flash back to sprint. HOW DO I FLASH BACK TO SPRINT SO THE WILL RECOgNIZE THE NOTE 3. please help
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
Ok, if the device has been flashed, has it also been rooted? Go to the app drawer and see if there is a SuperSu icon there. If so your rooted. This will void your warranty but should not stop sprint from activating the phone. Now to the home page, swipe down and click the gear lookin thing ( settings ) in the upper right hand corner. Then click the general tab, then click About Device. Ok, what is your software version, android version, and baseband version. Lets start with that, depending on what you have, you should fairly easily be able to get back to a Sprint version of whatever OS you have.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] punkin01:
help

first off. thank you for responding. software version is n900pvpucnc5 the adriod version is 4.4.2 the baseband version is n900pvpucnc5 please advise
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
Great !!! Your device is updated the latest version of 4.4.2 NC5 ( kitkat ). Since KNOX is 0x1 any warranty on the phone is void. Now up front if that phone was set up on a 2yr contract with the original owner, and the contract is not over, this could be an issue with Sprint ? So, with that out of the way lets see if we can get you activated. First, the reason that Sprint could not find the device with there system is because the phone is, or was rooted and a custom recovery was installed (flashed) this is why KNOX reads 0x1. Because the phone is rooted Sprint cannot send an OTA ( Over The Air Update ) to the device. Did the phone come to you in the original box ? If not, the serial number and MEID HEX and DEX (mobile equipment identifier ) numbers are on a sticker under the battery. Sprint my need those numbers you can find them there.

The first thing we need to do is get you back to stock. Do you have Samsung drivers installed on your PC? If not, go to this link http://www.devfiles.co/download/AbRa7wHc/SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe and get them installed. Go to this link http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=27506 register with SamMobile download the latest copy of 4.4.2 NC5 SPR version and you will need Odin 3.09 which you can get there as well. Download NC5 and Odin to your desktop.

Now lets get started, first extract the NC5 zip to your desktop this will automatically convert it to a .tar file. Now extract Odin to your desktop, click on Odin and open it. Click on the PDA button in Odin and box will open up. Click on desktop and then click and open the .tar file which will appear next to the PDA box. Boot your phone into download mode ( I assume you know how to do this since you found KNOX 0x1 ) connect your device via USB to the PC, in the upper left hand corner of Odin a box will light up COMM: with some color and number it doesn't matter what is says, it just shows you have a connection. Now don't touch any other settings just click start sit back and watch the magic !!! When its done you will have an out of the box stock Note 3. You can now try to activate your phone with Sprint by phone if you want. If it was me I would go into a Sprint Corporate store most likely the guys there, have phones they own rooted anyway, usually they cut you some slack if you no what I mean.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] punkin01:
please advise

did that now sprint is saying that the device is not compatible with sprint. its not coming up lost or stolen just not compatible for some reason
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
Go to settings, general, about device. What is the Hardware version, and model number. We need to determine what is not compatible, be it hardware or software.

Lets tackle hardware first :

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N9000 Octa (HSPA+ only)

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N900V (For Verizon)

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N900A (For AT&T)

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900P (For Sprint)

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N9002 (Dual SIM)

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N900T (For T-Mobile)

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900R4 (For US Cellular)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] punkin01:
n900p.12 is hardware
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
Cool, that is what it should be. I assume the model number is N900P? If so, I would take it to a Sprint Corporate Store, let them connect it to there equipment, and see if a tech can sort it out.

here's a picture of carbon fiber back protector.

Spoiler content hidden.
[Sprint LG G3] Sabrecat21:
I got the Tempered glass protector and the carbon fiber back. I wanted to get SOMETHING on the phone while I decide what kind of case I'm going to get.

I REALLY like the backing. I was always a little leery about setting my phone down because I want to try and keep it nice looking, so being worried about scuffs and the like, having the CF backing saves that worry. I think it looks great too.

The glass protector I'm not as impressed with. It goes on easy, and looks nice. Decent fit.

But it seems REALLY fragile/brittle. I put it on yesterday and this morning on my way to work I had the phone in my cupholder. When I took off from a light the phone tipped and it cracked/chipped a corner already. Even tonight I picked up the phone and lightly bumped it against a metal tubing on my computer desk and got another chip on the edge.

It doesnt look bad, it's not in the way, but knowing it's that fragile is a bit of a letdown.

They do have lifetime warranty with minimal shipping fees to send a replacement so I may activate that after I decide on a case.
[Sprint LG G3] menissalt:
I got some of the dry install protectors and they're very cheap. The corners absolutely will not stick, I even attempted a wet install as a last resort, no luck.

Aside from that they are also cut horribly and don't fit very well. I also got some USB cables from them and those are also very cheap, they won't charge anything, I haven't tested transfer speed yet.
[Sprint LG G3] NeoMatrixJR:
Huh...those weren't on there when I ordered my screen protector. :( I like carbon fiber...wanted one of those.
[Sprint LG G3] nadcicle:
They were, just hidden. I had to really look for them.
[Sprint LG G3] NeoMatrixJR:
Eventually found them. They don't show up if you hit their carbon menu item. Oh well, got my case...wouldn't have been worth it...couldn't see it anyway. Got my glass protector. Nice...like how it feels/looks compared to the old wet-apply and glad I didn't have to pay $40 for one...sadly got one bit of dust under it just at the edge and it must be thick enough to keep a small amount of the screen from sealing down no matter what I do. Oh well...it's in the black space above the screen.

[Sprint LG G3] geebee1932:
I think this company is somewhat of a rip-off/scam. They way overprice their items then offer huge discounts to get people to buy. I ordered the glass screen protector and it is no better or worse than other protectors. I had to order 2 items so I also ordered the card holder that sticks to the back of the phone. I have to say it is a cheap POS made of flimsy rubber. I would stay away from this company. You always get what you pay for.
[Sprint LG G3] gmentals:
I ordered 3 of the glass protectors for 3 different types of phones. 2 of them are great but the 1 for my G3 has some cloudy areas that are very annoying. I also ordered 2 of the charging cables. They are junk. They barely charge any phone even after being plugged in all day.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spackfan:
Hey guys,

Today I purchased a Note 3 since I could no longer root my Note 2. I ran the SO-SIMPLE Towelroot, and after that my phone would no longer connect to 4g. I checked all the toggles to make sure I hadn't flipped something, and I've factory reset it 3 times now. My final attempt was to just root it without SuperSU being installed. SuperSU wasn't updating the binaries. It disabled KNOX, but wouldn't do anything beyond that.

I'm hoping someone has encountered this issue and can point me in the right direction because I've been poking around the internet and I have come up blank. I really want to freeze out this damn bloatware. It seems like every time they put more memory in the phones, it's their cue to add TONNES more bloatware. Some of this Samsung crap is just so unnecessary.

I appreciate any help guys.

I rather spend $10 on a better quality screen protector than take a gamble. If both turned out to be bad, you just wasted $10, have to spend more on a better one and possibly use your phone until the new one arrives.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arifmdmsg:
Hi,

Nexus 4 after my latest upgrade released by Android. I started facing strange problem. whenever I make anycalls my screen turns blank while call is still in progress. I couldn't disconnect from my end neither I get dialer option nor loudspeaker option. It is irritating me a lot. could you do any resolution for this. I tried factory reset as well but couldn't help it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tukojack:
Hello,

I to have the very same problem. The N4 will even sometimes freeze to the point where I have reboot in order to get it working again. Frustrating though when your trying to end a call and the screen is totally blank, the waiting can vary from a few seconds to approx a minute. I'v also ran into this blank screen syndrome with using the camera, have you ran into this issue to?

Fingers crossed that someone can shed some light on this issue and possibly a fix or get around.

Thanks in advance.

This reminds me of the HTC desire days when I didnt have a clue about fastboot commands lol!!! great find mate!!!:good:

I can't remember so far back exactly but so u need to be s off to achieve this?

This was how I used to flash different types of HBOOT on the HTC desire when it was s off
[One (M8) Android Development] skulldreamz:
Actually no you don't need to be s-off to use this method to upgrade your firmware and or hboot. Its basically a forgotten secret on the safest way in my honest opinion to upgrade firmware because you don't have to worry about your computer shutting off or a USB cable coming out accidentally and bricking your device. Now to downgrade hboots you would need to be s-off but this is just the easiest and safest way to take a ota update without any worrying involved. If I'm incorrect on anything, anyone please feel free to jump in and correct me as I'm still somewhat new to this. Only thing I can think of is if your s-on and try to downgrade hboot, then you would just get a wrong image error but that's it. It won't flash with any unexpected consequences.
[One (M8) Android Development] Alaris:
Anyone know what version of firmware the unlocked or dev editions are currently running?
[One (M8) Android Development] Benski_84:
does it also work with any other firmweware.zip for the M8?

did we just rename the firmeware.zip to 0P6BIMG.zip?

that sounds very easy...to easy in my opinion :confused:
[One (M8) Android Development] EddyOS:
You will need S-OFF if you're trying to flash a FW package and your CID doesn't match those that the FW package is originally intended for
[One (M8) Android Development] exocetdj:
for GSM it should, I was renaming the zips i used to flash this way on the HTC desire to the same thing each time i flashed and it worked. The phone needs it named the same to recognise what to flash when in HBOOT
[One (M8) Android Development] skulldreamz:
Yes it will work for any other firmware zip that has been made for our m8. Again I only have a gsm, so can only speak on that %100. It does sound easy, too easy and that's why I would recommend this procedure over any other that yeilds the same outcome. One other piece of knowledge I need to add to op is that I would use supercid as it has never failed me...
[One (M8) Android Development] Benski_84:
thanks mate. got a GSM Device, too. sure, and i got also S-Off and SuperCID ;)

will give it a try, asap
[One (M8) Android Development] Behold_this:
Only correction I would make to this statement is that firmware zips must be signed if you are not s-off. Customs zips cannot be flashed on s-on devices regardless of how you flash them. If the zip is signed then it can be freely flashed as mentioned above. Just keep in mind that there will be no downgrading firmware without s-off.

On a side note, it's good to see you here in the m8 forums, bro! [emoji106]
[One (M8) Android Development] francki:
Thank you for that, very useful because my pc is dead now... One question though, the recovery file is missing inside the zip, have you put it out already? Or there wasn't one in this firmware package?

Envoyé de mon HTC One_M8 en utilisant Tapatalk
[One (M8) Android Development] skulldreamz:
Your welcome.. No i did not remove a recovery.img or alter the firmware package at all. If you unzip the package which I provided you will see exactly what was meant to be in the 2.12.401.3 firmware 4.4.3 update.
[One (M8) Android Development] old.splatterhand:
I'm a bit surprised, that this way seems to be unknown for the most people.

I always flash my firmware that way, since i have HTC phones.

For other devices than GSM, take a look at the bootloader. Right after you are in, it is scanning for the (firmware-)files and you can see, what filename it is scanning for. So you can rename the firmware with the correct name.

Here is a picture, i made with my previous HTC One SV, that you see what i mean:

As stated, this pic is not from M8 and the name in the picture don't work for M8!

My suggestion : if you can't find the video in the guide I wouldn't try this process. But hey its your phone, not mine. So its right underneath where I describe how to dd a hboot (about 2/3 the way down). * The process is %100 safe if you know what your doing so make sure to be best friends with xda and google.

[One (M8) Android Development] pinktheater:
I don't know what else to do.

I do the process either by fastboot or the process described here and I get the same results. The process is successfully done (even the red letters are gone!) but when I go to system info to check the new version it still says "Build number 1.54.404.10" and baseband "1.19.21331...".

So, did I get the upgrade or not? :confused:
[One (M8) Android Development] bbrannack:
Boot into bootloader mode and see what it says there. The system info your looking at is for the rom you are running. Those numbers are in the build prop of the rom. They will not change unless you modify your build prop text.
