[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] noncomjd:
[Q] Tried to downgrade to 4.2 now have "system software not auth by Verizon Wireless

My kid has a Verizon gs4 with kit kat. A while back I rooted the gs4 and wiped all the bloat.

Since the upgrade to KK, she was having lots of problems with messaging so I did some reading found that KK was probably at fault and I was going to roll back KK to 4.2 using this method (towards bottom of page): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2726868

I followed that guide and after completion of the first step got the message "System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest Verizon Wireless store for help". I went back into download mode continued with step two, same message on attempted reboot, I went back into download mode and moved onto step three, same problem.

I need help before I do some real damage (if I haven't already). I read some other threads and either didn't think that they applied here. How do i go about fixing this?

SOLVED

More reading here and elsewhere, I found a link to a stock version of Verizon Jellybean, loaded it into Odin and now it looks like I'm back and back to 4.2.

I hadn't let it boot up yet (i pulled the battery) because I thought it was trying to update (it turns out it wasn't updating the OS it was "Optimizing the apps". I let it finish and all is well again and by the way the messaging is now working fine again.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FNXHenry:
Hey guys, so I'm having problems with 4G/LTE on the S4 I9505. I'm using Google Edition ROM from Danvdh (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2557353) and I updated the modem to ZHUFNB3.

I already went back to the official rom from samsung (downloaded on sammobile) and it doesn't work either. Don't know what else can I try. Wi-Fi works fine, 3G, H, H+, everything works fine but not 4G/LTE.

What can I do?

Thanks.

hello, ok so i have been having a lot of problems with my phone here recently and i got most of them fixed. it started with me not being able to send or receive texts/calls/ or any data. i couldnt turn on my mobile data without roaming and my wifi just wouldnt even turn on. now i got everything working except the wifi. i cannot get the wifi to turn on no matter what i do. i am currently running android revolution hd 10.2 and have tried several other roms like venom (or viper i forgot what its called) and cannot get it, i have also deleted all my caches when installing these roms. any ideas?
[HTC One X] gavrushka:
Not sure if its because I'm stupid or faulty hardware or both.

So, HOX is unrooted, s-off with super cid (from e-bay). Got it for my dad.

A few days ago it froze, and when rebooting it just threw endless FCs and would not let the system finish loading up properly.

I did a factory reset from the fastboot, afterwards it worked ok.

But, the day after, it froze again. This time, when rebooting, it just showed a blank black screen after the HTC splash screen and did not go anywhere.

I went again to the fastboot screen, and then for some reason I went on to the stock recovery (I'm stupid). This time I did the "wipe user data/factory reset" from there, after also wiping chache and stuff (I'm used to do this in my rooted HOX with custom recovery).

After that, I did a reboot from the stock reovery. It went to the HTC splash screen, and here I was stupid again. I'm not sure how long he was like that, if for a minute or 5 or 10 (I did some other stuff in between). I thought it was stuck, and instinctively shut it down and the tried to turn it on again. I forgot I did the factory reset and that it might have been in the middle of the installation.

After that, the phone did not respond to anything. It won't charge, won't turn on, won't show any led indication, and in windows it is noted as the infamous APX. I have spent the entire day reading about it and I'm afraid the phone is lost.

I think I got the proper APX driver (it is seen as NVidia USB Bootrecovery driver for mobile devices). I tried some versions of nvflash. One shows "unknown device", other shows some info on the device when trying "nvflash --creat" but gets stuck at "starting nvflash" when trying "nvflash --sync".

So, my first question is, are the stock recovery "factory reset" and the fastboot reset the same?

When I do a factory reset in fastboot it resets and makes a "fresh install", while in the stock recovery it does some stuff but does not reboot automatically. I am afraid that I "wiped" the entire system partition when I did the reset after the stock recovery factory reset.

Have there been any advances in the APX field in the last year? Is there any hope?

If not, will anyone be willing to buy an APX S-OFF HOX in mid 2014? Or should I just throw it into the blender?

Thanks in advance,

Gabriel

This is a very simple fix, takes some time and a bit of common sense and patience, but if you follow the links i posted you should be fine. I have done almost everything possible to my HOX including what you did and they helped

Try This out

I had the same issue and I think this is what i did to get it to come on. try it, not like you have anything to lose.

your gonna need masking tap, your phone, the charger and a wall outlet

Now what your gonna do is tightly and i do mean as tight as possible tape the phone power button down

Cut a length of tape a little longer then the length of the phone

Line up the middle of the tape with the power button

Pressing down the power button, stretch out the tape over it and secure the rest of the tape to the back and front of the phone in such a way as to ensure that the power button stays down

Do the same for the volume up and down buttons

Once you feel certain that the above is done properly plug it into the wall to charge and leave it.

I think i left mine over night but i think its best you just leave it in a dark area with the screen facing up to charge so you will know when it turns on.

I advise even if it doesn't turn on in a time you see appropriate message me here and I will see if i come up with anything else

[General Questions and Answers] FarrukhQadri:
see this

1st:

i will highly recommend you to try this app which i am using for my phone with 512mb ram( hauwei y201pro)

this app has increased my phone speed , ram(freed) and battery life

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.greenify&hl=en

use: hibernate apps as per your wish which mean more free ram and less load on battery

optional:

http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer

for more ram tweaking and speed it will allow you to receive push notification even when app is hibernated and so much other modules are there.

Tip: hibernate whats app facebook official app and others of same category.

Can't ROOT my Micromax Canvas HD Plus 190

I have tried many methods to ROOT my Micromax Canvas HD Plus A190. But waste of time.

I need to ROOT this phone NOT to change rom, because this phone is not much popular and doesn't have any alternate custom roms. No CyanogenMod roms, No MIUI roms.........

And this phone has MediaTek MT6591 HexaCore Processor clocked at 1.5GHz which can almost run all High-End HD games. This chipset is also not popular. So I'm 100% sure this device does't get any updates on custom roms. Because this mobile phone is not popular as "Canvas HD" even though it has good performance.

The reason i tried to ROOT this Android smartphone is it has many useless and tidy applications and poor trial version games like M! Live, M! Games, Marbles, Giga Jump, Jelly Jumpers and so on.... I could easily remove these spam apps if I get root access.

The big trouble is can't update the pre-installed Hike Messenger. I can uninstall this app if get rooted.

But that too failed!!!....

Some one please HELP to solve this problem.

The Chinese Android App(apk) named irootsu formely "Root Master" which needs data connection while rooting your phone does'nt properly ROOT your phone. But that app will get into you System/App (i.e) it will become your system app and you can not remove that. But your phone will not get ROOT access. Too your Handset warranty will be void.

Hello guys i am new here

i have been cracking my head the last couple of weeks, i am doing this interface for a swimming coach and one thing he wants it's a stopwatch with 4 smaller stopwatches with lap time and accumulated time

the thing is, i am using a acer handheld with windows mobile 5.0 and i could implement a stopwatch with the datetime class, timespan and a regular timer..

i am using visual studio 2005 for this...

now my problem, i enable the timer when i push button start, and every tick of the timer i show on screen the timespan of the time now, and when the button clicked, only problem is i can't get accuracy to the 10th of a second.. my resolution is basicaly second.

any ideas? new timers? i know there is a class stopwatch on .Net but not CF.. and i have read stuff about the API queryperformancecounter but can't quite use it...

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] levenum:
Well I know next to nothing about programing using .NET (or CF) but there is a simple API function GetTickCount(). It receives nothing and returns a DWORD with the number of milliseconds since device last boot.

I think you can use pinvoke or something like that to call it from .NET application.

Hi.

I have previously had CM11 working very well on my HTC One S. To get the carrier unlock to work I had to revert to a stock ROM to apply the unlock code. Now, I am trying to go back to CM11 but facing difficulties.

I used an RUU (RUU_Ville_U_H3G_UK_1.78.771.5_Radio_0.16.31501S.19_2_10.23.31501S.10L_release_258982_signed) and that works fine but I lose root when doing it. I still have s-off and super CID.

Anyhow, if I flash TWRP recovery 2.4.1.0 I can get into recovery and flash SuperSu but cannot then flash CM11.

CWM will not let me flash CM Recovery and if I try a newer version of TWRP or any version of CWM Recovery my phone will go to the bootloader screen thereafter but when I select "Recovery" the phone just starts normally and I cannot get into Recovery at all.....

Please can someone give me some help / advice / pointers.

My head is spinning a bit so hopefully I'm missing something simple.

FYI Bootloader says:

I've yet to fully investigate this phenomenon, whether it be the YouTube app, the Tab, background apps etc. but can't see it been anything to do with the Netgear.
