[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] someniceguy:
Thanks doc. By "stock" you mean the official ROM without root? As I said, it's not the original version (4.1.1) but the OTA update to 4.1.3 by AT&T

I will have to buy some code
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Root doesn't matter. Many custom stock based ROMs will also work but some may have removed some needed files which is why I just said stock. As long as its stock based and has the stock dialer it should work though.

Official AT&T Unlock Code Fails

My contract ended id-September so I requested an unlock code, which was previded (below). I sent two separate requests for the unlock code and the number provided twice matches. I tried the unlock code (while using a T-Mobile SIM card) twice and the phone said the code was incorrect.

I prepared the phone by doing a factory reset. These are the phone details:

Model number

Samsung-SGH-I747 running

Android version

4.4.2

baseband

I747UCUFNE4

kernel

3.4.0-1514807

dpi@SWDD3003 #1

Mon May 19 21:00:05 KST 2014

Build number

KOT49H.I747UCUFNE4

These are the instructions provided:by AT&T:

Thank you for contacting AT&T Customer Care about unlocking your AT&T Mobile device. We have reviewed your request and confirmed that the device may be unlocked. You should complete the unlock process before porting out your number for use with another carrier. Please allow 24 hours upon receipt of this notification to complete the unlock process.

Your Unlock Code is :12345678

Unlock Steps - Use Non-AT&T SIM Card

1. Power off the device and insert a non-AT&T SIM card.

2. Power on the device.

3. Network Lock displays: Enter the device unlock code.

4. Enter the eight-digit unlock code.

5. Press OK.

Note: You are allowed five attempts to unlock before your device permanently locks to the AT&T network. Note: If your device has been altered from the original manufacturer's standards, such as rooting the device, your unlock code may not work and you will need to contact the original manufacturer for assistance.

For questions regarding AT&T Mobile device, please visit the Phone/Device Learning Center. Thank you for your business. For other questions about our AT&T wireless service or other Mobile devices, please visit att.com.

I've tried the unlock twice and it did not work. The phone is rooted. I think I manually installed 4.4.2 because the OTA failed many time to update.

I think these instructions are confusing in that step 3 and step 4 both say enter the unlock code. Is there a second code? I thought an phone unlock code is a single 8-digit number.

I have successfully unlocked an old HTC Aria so I have a little bit of experience performing unlocks. But if you have advice I'd appreciate hearing your thought.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Forgive me for asking but is your phone running a stock ATT ROM? Does the imei obtain from the phone match the imei on the label under the battery?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wpscully:
Yes, the IMIE shown on the label and via About device --> Status are identical. I asked AT&T twice for the unlock code because I thought maybe I sent the wrong code. I'm 99.9% sure the IMIE number I used is correct.

Yes, the flavor of Android installed is the AT&T version. If I recall, in August 2014 I used ODIN to manually install 4.4.2 because the over-the-air update was not working. (The OTA would download but fail to install. I'd wait for two or three days before I could try a second, third, forth... time.) I have also done a reset via Accounts --> Backup and reset. The MicroSD card was erased too, through the reset process. The lock screen, the home screen, all the typical AT&T add-on applications seem to be as they were when I purchased/upgraded the phone two years ago.

4.4.2 is rooted and I have Chainfire's SuperSU v2.00 Pro installed.

I should mention this: When I look at About device --> Status, all the way at the bottom, is "Device status" which shows "Custom". This isn't a setting. I suppose this is why the network unlock code is not working.

I'm not sure what to do next. I can't recall the page on XDA which guided me through the install of 4.4.2. I'll look a little harder because I'm sure I used XDA as my guide for the upgrade. Perhaps I'll try to install a non-root 4.4.2 image.

I never expected that I'd have five and only five tries at network unlock. I've used three tries... I need to make sure the last two work! Any advice is appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Sorry, I'm out of ideas. All I can suggest is flashing back to completely stock with stock recovery and no root access.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dawgdoc:
In my case AT&T told me they would not give me a code until I paid off my contract. I would seem they don't care about their former or current customers.

I showed them though, I was still on 4.1.2 and simply donwgraded my modem and used the free unlock method. It's now time to upgrade to kitkat.

[MENTION=2903773]wpscully[/MENTION]

Don't know if you still need help, but maybe this would do the trick? I think it's the last post that's describing a different method of getting the unlock code to work.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wpscully:
[MENTION=4081205]DocHoliday77[/MENTION], your pointer you mention above has proven invaluable. For the record here is the link I used; http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55677344&postcount=137 MrBrown72 has a secret code and menu selections which seem to tell my phone to ignore all the customizations I made (root, maybe removing some AT&T bloat) and accept the valid network unlock code AT&T provided when my contract ended. The phone is now working on T-Mobile, rooted still, and none the worse for wear. I also want to thank Audit13 for advice on what

not

to do, and well as his guiding me so I found the hints that the phone considered itself "custom".

Finally I'll mention that if I had not been able to unlock this phone I never, ever would have selected AT&T as a cell provider. In this process they were professional, respectful, and helpful. T-Mobile didn't get my old line transferred before my AT&T contract ended. AT&T probably could have made clearing up this transfer very hard. But they were kind, understanding and efficient in reinstating my old number briefly so T-Mobile could finish the transfer.

I know others have had trouble with vendors. I wish all companies could understand that being unhelpul or rude is the fastest way to lose a customer for life.

Hello all,

I'm using PushMail with MS Exchange and I am very happy about figuered out this feature. But now I have a new problem. If I have charged my battery up to 100% it only need half of a day to be empty without using my hermes (only UMTS for Push Mail)

Has anybody the same problem or a sollution ?

Thanks

sunmaker
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sleuth255:
Ok, try this. Open your maillbox in Outlook, then send yourself an email from another email account. Does the mail item hit your hermes and your inbox at (about) the same time?

note: if you have cache mode set in outlook then it should hit your hermes before you see it in your inbox.

If you can't access your mailbox with Outlook, then use OWA and hit refresh often to see when the mail item hits.

I suspect that you're going to find out that mail to your Hermes is delayed for up to 7 minutes from the time you see it in your outlook/owa viewed inbox. If you are seeing mail hit at about the same time, try this test periodically for an entire day to see if there's any time that this isn't the case. Let me know what you find out!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mnez:
It's UMTS that is so power-hungry.

download Daniel Herrero's Bandswitch and force GPRS-only, to see the immediate result. Let us know; in my case it improved battery life from 20h to ~80h.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sleuth255:
This doesn't necessarily account for a one half day drain. I'm on UMTS direct push and I go two days between charges. There's something else that I'm thinking about here. If sunmaker is seeing the delay I'm looking for then I'll reveal the reason.

Btw: on mine, email always hits my TyTN before I see it in Outlook.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] gravejoker:
You should be able to survive around 2 days with UMTS + DP .. and approx 3 days with just UMTS ...

You need to check for any processes/services that might have excessive CPU utilization ...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jasjamming:
I have around the same usage in between charges. I get around 2 days with PM+UMTS but if I use my device extensively during the day i charge the same night.

half a day to empy sounds like there is a process chewing up your amps, or the battery is faulty.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mxlaser:
It entirely depends on usage.

I get two days (similar to others above) using push and UMTS.

However, if ihave wireless enabled and bluetooth too, and using a bluetooth headset and make a couple of hours of calls in the morning, i'd be hard pressed to last the day out on the same charge.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] amster:
I'm running Pushmail and UMTS also Bluetooth is enabled all day.

i spend about 35 minutes a day in calls and do send about 5 SMS mess. a day.

My battery last for about 20 hours.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mxlaser:
Like i said, entirely depends on usage.

i recieve close to 30-40 work orientated emails a day ,of which at least 20 get replies instantly. add in 2hrs easily of actuall call talk time and its easy to see where my battery life goes.

a lot of people whinge about battery life, but if you expect alll the bells etc that a good WM5 device has theres going to be issues with long battery lifes.

My blackberry 8707g using UMTS and recieving maybe 10 emails a day barely last a day and a half from full charge. Thats without much else, and probably 10 mins of call time. SO i consider the Dopod 838Pro (or Hermes! :) ) to have more than adequate battery life for what i use it for. Besides a great, powered car holder and hard wired GOS device in the car has just about made this Hermes the best of any unit i've used, WM5, WM2003, Blackberry and palm inclusive.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sunmaker:
thank you for so much response.

I have about 30 Mails per day some SMS and 60min phonecalls. I'm using the 1.20 radio so far. Could it be the radio ?

The radio versions i used before I have a lot of trouble with. Because my Hermes always loged out.

I have no other progs in the memory only the necessary (CommMgr, Active synk, Email).

I've ordered some new batteries (1350mAh ans 2.400(!) ) So I will look and see if it is the battery.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] KiminyMe:
My husband has a Sony Xperia TL with stock ROM (4.1.2). About once a month or, his phone simply stops receiving messages (SMS and MMS) for several days at a time. After four or five days, they suddenly all appear in a wave, then the phone goes back to normal behavior for 3-4 weeks.

We have tried the following:

* Rebooting the phone. No effect.

* Removing and replacing SIM card. No effect.

* Resetting the phone to original settings. No effect.

* Trying another messaging app (including Go SMS Pro, SoftCoil Messaging, Hangouts). They seem to work about as well as the stock messaging app, but they don't "reboot" the process of receiving the messages.

* Changing APN settings

I've been trying to talk him into trying a different ROM, but he is really worried about the phone not working at all.

Is this a common problem with this phone? Is there anything else we can try?

TIA.

I've tried many things, I rooted the phone and tried to manually place the google apk's in the root, but still the apps don't work.

I found some custom roms on needrom.com, but cannot manage to install them (the scatter files return null-values):

I also watched a video to install CWM, but I cannot find any CWM for my phone/model.

anyone has any idea how i can acces google play, or install a custom rom so that I can use all features?
