[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] intoxicatedpenguin:
I have bought 2 USB Jigs off of eBay because I don't know anywhere I can purchase them locally for my Galaxy S4 - except, NEITHER HAS FIT.

Both have been advertised to fit the galaxy s 4 - but their micro USB end is different than that of a charger and that shown in their pictures?

For example, my charger, and their pictures, show the thing at the bottom having three lines - the items I've been sent only have 2 and don't fit into my phone?

Do I just need to give it a really good shove?

I don't want to break my phone!

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgg2vs980:
hello xda, i have a vzw vs980, that is rooted using towelroot, and has twrp achieved through autorec. I am currently on stock 24a 4.4.2 kitkat, but want to flash back to bone stock. i have all the files i need. I have installed the vzw g2 drivers 2.11.1, but when i put it in download mode and connect it to my computer it begins to install on my pc like it should. on my phone i see the download mode screen with the word "rooted" in red in the lower box. i also see B57 in grey. my status bar on my pc just randomly dissapears, and my phone stays at 0% the whole time. i was able to boot back up into my phone, and all is well. i went to lg support, and saw that there was new drivers for my phone, 2.16.1. i havent tried again with these, but my question was that if you knew what my problem was, or if the outdated drivers were the problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] soulja4187:
Should I update from where im at? I haven't updated my phone since I took it out of the box. All I did was root to install wanam expose, xposed installer and region lock away. What do you guys recommend? What's the easier way to update without installing a custom recovery.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kgptzac:
The only "problem" i can come up right away is apps using extSDcard issue... which is already solved if root. What other problems are there?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] soulja4187:
Thanks i updated to NF9 using your method, i then rerooted my phone. Lot faster than before. Thank you very much
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pete4k:
Sure there are other problems, in my case I can't get the battery usage under control. I'm rooted and freeze whole bunch of stuff, more so than under Jelly Bean and it's still not what it used to be. I even did full factory reset, which is a huge pain all by itself (car BT pairing took 3 days alone, it wouldn't auto connect, lost few games progress despite restoring from backup, needed to restore AC3 again etc.) and still battery usage is much higher now than before. I really see no improvement whatsoever, oh wait I see that new volte message sometimes popping up, big deal, I can make phone calls just the same as before . Did I mention I lost region unlock? Not sure about SIM lock, I know it got unlocked with region, but now, after update probably locked again. To be fair Effortless method worked great, but for me it was all downhill afterwords and I'm not sure I would upgrade knowing what I know now. Maybe my experience is isolated and due to something particular I did or not do, but the old saying "don't fix it if it ain't broken" rings in my ear over and over again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] soulja4187:
If your having issues you might want to try reflash. I didn't loose any apps or games, my car bt connected the same, remember that now your phone uses volte which could be a cause for more battery drain so why don't you try turn it off after reflashing. My only complaint is that while your on a voltle call you can conference as many calls you want but don't have the option to drop a specific line so only option is to end all call. I just went to volte settings and changed it to do not use volte and now i got back my conference call button back when on multiple calls.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pete4k:
Thanks for ideas, but It's not volte, when home i"m always on wifi and for example just last night lost 20% charge overnight, wakelock shows nothing, the only time I had anything like that on JB was when I switched off wifi power save in secret menu long time ago when troubleshooting wifi calling. BT first wouldn't connect at all, then connected, but wouldn't reconnect again next day, finally on third day it held. I think I read somebody was claiming SD card fix breaks BT, or something like that, but now finally seems to be working. I'll probably freeze/disable everything at some point and then start enabling few apps at the time, to see when it starts blowing battery again, but this will take forever.. Update itself went fine, I even verified firmware's checksums, like first time ever and I have no reboots, no crashes, no freezing. Actually let me check that stupid wifi save mode, maybe it turned itself off.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pete4k:
Thanks for the advice, but to clarify things: there are many posts on this forums and T-mobile forum complaining about poor battery life after updating to KK, so I'm not alone. It's been close to 2 months since I updated and I still can't get my phone to run as efficiently as it was, so I'm frustrated since nothing shows up in wakelock or any other program I tried. One time I can loose 20% overnight, other time 2%, never had anything like that before. I have no idea what are you talking about people paying for rooting their phone, so I just leave it at that. I have few games that have many levels, where you can't go to next level before finishing the lower one, I backed up all programs and data with Titanium and some games didn't restore properly, even with multiple tries leaving me at level one, no big deal since I'm not hardcore gamer, but things like that do happen. As far as updates in general go, I had a lot of bad experiences, once I even lost my desktop computer after updating manufacturer released faulty BIOS and had to buy video card to fix it, even recent Apple's ios 8.01 update was faulty and they had to release update to update, next day, so things not always go as planned. I do not see any visible benefits in KK, all I see is broken SD card access, gone per apps permission settings, patched up root exploit (thank you towelroot for new one, which is already patched in the latest release BTW) and in my case poor battery life, so I'm not impressed and not quiet sure it was worth for me to update. I felt OP should have been warned, that there are some people having some issues after the update. Maybe because I like my Note3 a lot and want it to be perfect, this battery issue annoys me more than it should, but it seems the harder I try, the worst it gets.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] hetster:
Ok a friend of mine brought me a i9305 lte to unlock as i have done several of my firends. so i did these steps

1. made a back up from QPST

2. Cf auto rooted

3. installed custom recovery

4. downgraded to 4.1.1

5. did the network unlock from service menu

i then put my sim card in but kept getting not registered on network. i tried setting service provider to auto and also selecting manually and it does the same but no longer asks for sim unlock code so i assume its now unlocked and has some other problem. i thought it may be a imei issue and checked but the imei is fully there and matches the one behind phone batter it also has the correct baseband.. i checked in the about phone menu and it says network unknown and out of service. thinking it may be a radio issue i proceeded to install a stock 4.3 that was originally on the phone from the network carrier it was originally locked to, to see if it was a radio problem but again get network unknown. so i restored the QPST backup over the stock 4.3 and it still says network unknown.

I am starting to think the phone may be blocked but not sure as i also hear its a common problem to lose imei and / or service during rooting. Am i missing something pbvious or fighting a losing battle lol..

one other thing of slight note is when i went to sammobile for the stock rom, when i was searching i searched for i9305 as thats whats on the sticker but it has a little badge on the back that says LTE which according to sammobile is the i9305N and i9350T.

thanks for taking the time to read this and the help you guys allways offer :good::good::good:
[Sprint LG G2] KD8JBF:
Looks like Sprint has posted on their device RDF Page that they are now testing ZVE. Any input or leaks on what is to come? Hopefully WiFi Calling?!

Kris:fingers-crossed:
[Sprint LG G2] Fnord12:
That'll be nice if they finally being wifi calling that they've been promising for a while. Signal isn't the best where I live.

Hopefully they'll fix the ongoing LTE issues i've been having on ZVD as well. Sometimes the phone will drop to 3G and just stay there until I meddle with the settings.

Anyone know how upgrading goes if you've got it rooted? I haven't been on stock long with this phone and would rather not lose all of the customizations that i've done. (namely, replaced nearly all of LG's customized apps with stock looking ones)
[Sprint LG G2] abrigham:
I have the same problem with mine, but I don't think it's necessarily an issue with the phone directly. I just got my wife the Galaxy S5 Sport and the lady I dealt with at the Sprint store started to explain "This is a tri-band phone, and since we don't have Spark here, it may get stuck in 3G occasionally. To fix that just put it in airplane mode for a few seconds and then back out". I told her I'd been having the same issue with my G2 and she said it's common on all their Tri-band phones.
[Sprint LG G2] Fnord12:
Well, I never had this problem with the phone while I was on CM11 so it's not the hardware, it's got to be an issue with their spark enabled radio firmware. (had ZV8 radio on the phone until I used the zvc .tot file to restore it to stock)
[Sprint LG G2] rocket321:
The problem and solution you describe are related to the eCSFBbug which has been fixed. It was an issue at the tower level and caused triband phones to stay on 3g. This should not be an issue any longer, so your Sprint rep needs to update their support knowledge.

Anyone who is able to return to LTE after being stuck on 3g for more than a few minutes by toggling airplane mode probably needs to perform the BSRtimer fix (G2 only)
[Sprint LG G2] Fnord12:
Yeah.. good luck with that, I saw the procedure to get one's MTR, annoying looking and potentially "interesting" in a bad way.

Everyone says just use this dialer code except it doesn't work on ZVD and the alternative is the bad looking one.
[Sprint LG G2] rocket321:
All you need is your MSL which isn't hard to get. Sprint gives it to you anytime you activate a phone, and if you didn't save that record then just go to Sprint chat and ask for it. If they ask why tell them you are doing a hands free activation.
[Sprint LG G2] Fnord12:
MSL.. riiight, no idea where I got MTR from. I'll see what ZVE does when it's out, it's not a problem I run into too frequently but it is slightly annoying when I do.
[Sprint LG G2] rocket321:
Waiting for ZVE is certainly another valid option. My wife also has a G2 and I simply advised her to ignore the ZVD update knowing there would be a fix released eventually.
[Sprint LG G2] RohanM:
Any update I this update guys?
[Sprint LG G2] jcwxguy:
source code has been posted on lg website. OTA should be within the next week or two. (at least thats what i am thinking)
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
For those complaining about WiFi calling (I was one of them), just use Hangouts as it now has Google Voice integrated. No need for Sprint's crappy apps. Merge your Sprint number with GoogleVoice and install the Goigle Dailer app and Hangouts will give you a WiFi calling tab/Dialer.

Its great because now I get SMS messages on my laptop in Chrome browser as well as calls routed from my Sprint number.

T-Mobile supports only Google Voice "Lite", I just switched to them, but it works just as well. Despite my Sprint sim being deactivated (Ported to T-Mobile) , my G2 can make calls why WiFi calls.
[Sprint LG G2] darkpoe:
Google hangout calls sound horrific on every connection I've used it on except for my PC and my PC and phone are both on 802.11ac router running Shibby Tomato.
[Sprint LG G2] Jewbacca1983:
Really

Flamer!
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
That is odd, it was crystal clear for me compared to Sprint's network, new motto; "Sprint, disconnecting America"

Anyway try disabling SIP ALG on your router, some have a bad implementation of it. With my Netgear R8000 no issues here. It could also be due to wireless interference as it will be worse for the G2 as it only has one antenna unlike laptops which usually have 2. I live in a 2.4 congested neighborhood so I use the dual 5Ghz bands on my router as Im the only one here with a 5ghz supporting router.
[Sprint LG G2] darkpoe:
Yeah, Shibbys tomato is why I specified my firmware. I am 15 feet from my 802.11ac router and am connected 5g on all my supported devices. It sounds like **** at work as well.. I have a SIP dialer on my phone for my work VOIP and it is crystal clear compared to hangouts on my phone.. It isn't Facebook messenger bad, but it isn't good. I have an airrave at home hooked up via a wireless bridge since I have no windows in the area near my router downstairs. It sits upstairs and all my calls using airrave are fantastic. Again I personally find that the hangouts voicecalls suck either in Stock or AOSP (tried both) My Brother has the same phone as does my sister in law and they quite agree. I have tried the sprint wifi calling on a friends phone and it sounded fantastic compared to my g2 in hangouts
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
Wow, I am sure they would update it get rid of any quirks in the future. Just curious, what router do you use? I used to have Netgear WNDR3800 but Netgear gave me an R8000 for free as a beta tester, range and VoIP are better.
[Sprint LG G2] wcr84:
I am not claiming to be 100% correct on this. But from what I have understood. ZVE will not bring wifi calling. The update is going to be minor ui enhancements dealing with lockscreen and a couple of widget updates. The update also addresses some minor bug fixes. Dont hold me to it. Just passing it aloing. I asked about LG G3 Ui and was told only lockscreen and widget enhacments. No launcher or new apps of any sort.
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
G3 UI will only come with the Lollipop update.
[Sprint LG G2] mistermidas:

[Sprint LG G2] sclarktay4:

update with adb.

adb sideload LS980ZVD_19-LS980ZVE_03_update.zip

sure there are other ways to manually update... this is just one.

"Security patch" included with this update... I'm going to assume at least TowelRoot has been patched. Be careful if you want to keep root. Upgrading through twrp and flashing things manually might be a better route vs taking this OTA zip file.

Others who have taken the OTA update already please chime in. I will be updating this post with any findings I have.
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
Go to Settings > Apps and select show All. Then find Google Services Framework and click the Clear Data button. Then click the Force Stop button. Then check for update. Repeat this cycle till you get an update notification.

You may need to do this a few times till you get lucky and get the right counter/update key. Never took me more than 5 or 6 tries. Just be sure to do a factory data reset after update as this method screws with some apps.
[Sprint LG G2] jkcarp94:
Google has publicly warned that clearing data in Google Services Framework is a very bad idea. As I understand the issue, after you do that and then reconnect with Google if basically resets your identity with Google and the phone's identification number. That can have bad impacts on a variety of different apps.
[Sprint LG G2] sclarktay4:
Unfortunately it does not seem to work. It still shows the current time today.
[Sprint LG G2] illinoissparks18:
same here. Tried every combination and the date stays current. It usually goes back to 12-31-69 then the update works.
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
I never messed with the date, I updated to ZVA, ZVC, ZVD using the GS Framework method.

Its luck of the draw, sometimes you may get the token in the first attempt and sometimes after a large number of attempts. It definately works.

---------- Post added at 12:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 PM ----------

Some apps are affected, but if you do a factory reset like I do after forcing an update then there are no issues even according to Google. So just be prepared to do a full reset if some apps have issues.

I dont think ZVE is released yet, so no point in trying yet. After a few people confirmed they recieved the update then try to force it.
[Sprint LG G2] LS89:
Waiting for ZVE firmware. Sames like nobody got it
[Sprint LG G2] NSTar1:

[Sprint LG G2] autoprime:
can you download and pull update? :D

would be in the /cache folder on root of phone.

then delete download and clear ota notification?

or could you run a logcat before you start the download.. then hit download.. logcat should spit out link to download the OTA.

that link would be all we need :D

same as above applies to anyone that gets the update. you can safely download and pull the update without actually attempting the update itself.

I dont see anything in the cache folder.
[Sprint LG G2] LS89:
Plz share the zip file in /cache

? life's good
[Sprint LG G2] autoprime:
you must first accept the download... the notification usually only tells you there is an OTA zip to download. then you hit ok and it downloads. thats when it goes into /cache.

use something like RootExplorer or ES File Explorer to then browse to your phones cache folder. You may need to grant the apps root permission first.. and in ES File Explorer you may have to "show hidden files"

then you'd need to delete it and clear the update notification.

if we get the filename of the update.. we can just add it to the OTA URL here:
