From searching xda, there is a second method, but it doesn't work either.

The second method is this: Start with the phone disconnected. Then choose "Firmware Upgrade and Initialization".

It will prompt for the model name. Enter 'SGH-I317' without any lowercase letters.

Then it will ask for the serial number, which you can get by opening up the back and looking under the battery.

Now you can connect the Note 2 in Download mode.

Then it will go through the entire process of downloading the firmware and extracting it to a folder in:

C:\Users\<windowsid>\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp<random>.tmp.zipfilder\

Inside this folder are 5 files. I noticed that these firmware files (I317UCAMA4) are for 4.1.2 Android version rather than the latest firmware.

But it gets an error when it tries to start the firmware update.

Notice the recovery code is blank, so you actually can't start firmware emergency recovery.

On the Note 2 side, it says "SW REV. Invalid magic string."

They have better rates than bestbuy and sprint, and a lower deductible..has anyone heard of this company before? I'm like 4 days into having my note 4 and kinda thinking about insurance. bestbuy decided to impliment a protection plan identical to sprints. :/
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] llawen:
No. But you have got me interested. Im going to call them this week and get some more info. 11 bucks a month for sprints insurance, its half the cost. One thing about insurion (or what ever their name is), i know for a fact they pay claims. Ive used them once when I dropped my droid razr maxx hd in my coffee. Had a new phone in 2 days. Not sure how reliable this one is. But Im definitely interested in knowing more. One thing that is a red flag is it has Sprints deductible at 200 bucks. Mine is 100 bucks, or at least it used to be.

Let me know what you find out. Ill do the same after I call them.

Thanks for the info. Good to know there is some competition for mobile device insurance.

AS FOR ME.....GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IFMISM:
Unfortunately with the premium phones the deductible is $200 and $300 if you lose the phone. I will be looking into this tomorrow also.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wojo797:
I would read the reviews on Amazon, I was all for buying through square trade... Now I am rethinking it
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] menissalt:
I actually use to sell Square Trade and use them for all my electronics (except phones because I haven't broken one yet). If you read the comments you'll see that they're 5 star rated on Amazon and have an A+ rating with the BBB as well as numerous awards for customer service. They're totally worth it though I'm not familiar with their phone policies, I only TV, computer, and tablet warranties.

I do know that if you intend on keeping the phone for the full two years you can just buy the insurance instead of doing monthly installments. In the end it saves you around 50% give or take.

If you want more info call them or go in to a TigerDirect, they sell them there. You can get a device anywhere and buy the Square Trade at Tiger, just make sure to tell them you saw the online price and it was cheaper, it'll knock down the price.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshi1221:
Squaretrade is about the same as any warranty, customer service is ok, once you speak to a supervisor. Most lower reps don't know what they are talking about, when my note 3 screen cracked they replaced it with a new phone from amazon, but I was told that was a one time deal. Otherwise it is "gently used" or open box items. I paid 89 for two years with them, but I am also paying 13 a month with sprint and will probably stick with sprint unless Squaretrade does that again. Only recommend them if you don't want to shell out a monthly payment with sprint
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j00manji:
Have we found out anything else regarding squaretrade? I haven't had a chance to call them at all but I'm thinking of just going with best buys insurance, even if the deductible is crazy high. ..
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Itchiee:
I have SquareTrade on both of my tablets but fortunately I never used the policy... I would insure my phone with them but they don't cover theft or loss like Sprint does.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] menissalt:
Come on guys, Google is your friend! Squaretrade is either $5 a month or $99 for two years. They don't cover loss or theft and their deductible is $75. Across the board they're more affordable than everyone else. You can also get it on any device at any time, you just have to prove it's working I guess.

http://www.squaretrade.com/smartphone-warranty
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkManX4lf:
I am interested in switching to square trade but other than theft coverage Sprint's tep has one other benefit. There have been times where I go to a Sprint store for an issue, like my wifi radio not working anymore or something else. They have replaced it for free. Sometimes with a new device.

It looks like with square trade it's cheaper but you get a refurbished or used device.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Patch7:
Sprint TEP will replace with used/refurbished phone also. It even states that in the fine print. It even says they can replace with different device of equal value.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stryke_the_Orc:
I've used squaretrade for years, they're a good route to take, but as with any contract, be sure to read the terms and understand what you're reading.

Yep I know. That's why I said "some times with a new device".
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] mandeepsandhu3:
Hey friends

i have seen that everyone is complaining that their Redmi 1S starts lagging and performance is worse after updating to v45.

so today i am here with very simple fix for this problem

NOTE : Rooted Redmi 1S is required

Now after rooting Redmi 1s

After rooting download and install root explorer on your redmi 1s

now go to /etc/thermal-engine-8226.conf and delete the lines marked with red.

before

View attachment 2995099

after

View attachment 2995100

apply this fix and your lagging problem will be fully solved and your performance will also come back as before

NOTE: this will only solve lagging problem after v45 upddate but it will not solve heating problem.

To solve heating problem you should download NO FRILLS CPU app and use it to downclock you cpu to 1.3 Ghz . It will reduce heating problem.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] icecool87:

[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Marius Cristian:
[Q]

What this fix actually does?I can tell when my redmi 1s gets hotter the phone underclock itself to a max frequecy of 998400 mHz and starts lagging.I'm affraid that if this removes this cpu control when it gets too hot,the cpu will broke in time.More details?

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] trojanbrutha:
I'll start with a little background, then I'll get to the point. I got a "Verizon" HTC One M7 from ebay. It had a cracked screen, but it was in pretty fine working condition. I took it to a shop to have the screen replaced because it looked a little too complicated for me. Got it back and noticed it didn't have any reception when I charged it back up. Flashed a new ROM and radios, but still no reception.

My problems multiplied once I attempted to downgrade to see if that would revive the reception. I ended up sending it to jtag because I bricked it in the process. Fast-forward to today where I have my phone back, in working condition, somewhat, but no reception. I'm told that it has a GSM board, not CDMA. It was advertised as a Verizon phone and had a signal when I got it. Possibly switched at shop...I don't know.

Now, all I want to do is get a working phone. How do I proceed to get it working so that I can, at the very least, sell a working phone to get one that I can flash to PagePlus?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
Go to about phone and check the software information. Post a screenshot of that.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] trojanbrutha:
Ok...here's what I have...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
Go into fastboot mode and use the fastboot get-var all command and post that as well. That might be able to tell for sure if it is gsm or not. If it is you won't be able to get a signal at all with Verizon. On the plus side you should be able to flash the correct firmware for that board and sell that phone to someone else as a gsm phone. It should work just fine on gsm as long as the correct firmware is flashed.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] trojanbrutha:
So, after thinking about this whole thing for a while, I decided to call Verizon to find out if the cell shop pulled a switch-a-roo on me with the motherboard. The guy tells me that my IMEI is not compatible with the vzw network. :mad: Now I want to know what HTC has to say about it. I call them and I'm told it's a vzw phone...and IT'S STILL UNDER WARRANTY!:highfive: Of course, he walks me through a factory reset and questions me about htcdev account. I'm mostly truthful about it and explain about the replacement screen...he's undeterred about that...asks if I can relock my bootloader...I say yes :good: So, now I'm thinking faux bootloader, but I think I should just ruu down...

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] trojanbrutha:
I'm in the process of going back to stock and while I was running the ruu that was somewhat successful, the following is what I saw that failed...

Now it's just stuck trying to activate. All I need to do now is a factory reset and lock the bootloader and s-on. I was just curious about what didn't work or what failed in the ruu...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] AndroiderM:
I have had no problems with my GPS getting a lock and keeping it when using waze or google maps. I received my Otterbox Defender 2 days ago and everytime I use the phone to navigate it constantly loses signal and has to relocate itself on the map. This is very annoying especially considering I've just moved and use navigation quite a bit. I have location set to high accuracy and also have tried toggling wifi on an off to see if it makes a difference. It loses location roughly every 30 secs to a minute. Could this be the case or the phone. I did not have his problem before case but never had problem on previous phones in defender case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] brittoking:
You could easily just try the old way without a case again, see if that temporarily fixes it. If it does, email otterbox and let them know you want first to try a replacement and if you still have issues a refund. Side note: the otterbox website says "coming soon" for the defender? How'd you get one!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] AndroiderM:
The all black otterbox is now available jut sold old the colored versions are the ones coming soon. I actually picked mine up at a sprint retail store since official website had sold out. Thing is it is packaged in 3 seperate boxes now, you buy the inside for $34.99, the outside for $34.99, and the holster for $15.99 or $69.99 on Otterbox site for whole set. I will try GPS today without case and see if that's the problem.

Here are some pics of how they are packaged now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] brittoking:
That's ridiculous! Why separately? You can't use the cover without the inner hard shell so that makes no sense. Thanks for the heads up I did see the cool color combos coming soon
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] AndroiderM:
I suppose otterbox is leaving it to the consumer to pick the colors they want or if you damage just the two or inner she'll you can replace just that part. I still find it ridiculous that I paid 74$ for just the case with no holster and that black was the only option.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Malaranu:
That's interesting because I just started noticing this weekend that my phone has been doing that as well. Would find a lock no problem at first but can't maintain that lock. The GPS icon would disappear and then restart again after a few seconds to try and find a lock. Would happen every few minutes or so. The thing is, I don't have a case for my phone yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] AndroiderM:
I have since tested the phone without the case and have the same results lose of GPS lock. Everything has worked fine since Oct 15th and now this. It is past the 14 day return period now so I wold have to make a warranty replacement. At this point idk what to do wait for OTA update and ope it fixes it or return phone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] frellingfrakker:
I've seen some other threads where people installed apps that use GPS navigation then navigation on maps became spotty. Do you have another GPS app running?

Sent from my Note 4
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] sndtubes:
I just bought the Otterbox Commuter. I will try the GPS and report back. I hope the GPS is better than the Note 3 (which was terrible )
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Malaranu:
Not really sure. In my situation, I only have Google Maps and Ingress. It's weird because it just suddenly started happening. Either that or I haven't noticed it before until now. I tried booting the phone in safe mode to see if it still happens and it does. Probably my next step will be factory resetting and seeing what is going on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Malaranu:
So I found out something interesting. I did some research and think the GPS issue may be related to the SIM Card. I was reading the Note 3 thread on the AT&T forums and saw that some people had luck replacing their SIM Card and having the issue fixed. Funny thing is, this problem is happening with other phones too, not just Note 3 or Note 4. So I tried removing the SIM Card completely and walked around for about 10 minutes. GPS did not lose lock nor shut down and restart. When I put my SIM Card back in, the GPS lost lock and shut down/restarted within the first 3 minutes.

I wonder what is causing the issue. Its curious how the GPS and the Sim Card are related in some way. I will probably go to the AT&T store and try to swap out the SIM Card and see if this may resolve the problem. I'll report back once I get that done later today and see if it fixes the issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Zer()C00L:
I can confirm 100% issues with GPS on my AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4. I bought it Sunday (12/28/2014) and noticed instant GPS inaccuracies, teleporting, not updating correct route information, etc. I got home, OTA'd, tried again the next day, same issues. Took it into AT&T yesterday (12/30/2014), guy instantly swapped, I stood right there and showed him exactly what was happening on the brand new,fresh out the box phone. "Hmmm, I'd give it a couple of days to.....uhhh.....calibrate, then bring it back if it doesn't work." Screw that, wtf is going on? Why do a select few of us have the problem and why does it continue to happen to the same people?

In another forum, a guy took his back not 1, not 2 but 3 TIMES, same gps issues everytime......... Add me to the list of people who've had multiple phones and the same gps issues. SIM related????? Maybe? I can't have another phone, I absolutely love this thing.

**EDIT** Had a Note 2 for close to 3 years, not one GPS problem.
