Don't mean to sound rude but it appears that you have never developed anything before. Also your previous threads show that you have trouble rooting your phone and even installing roms.

Is there a track record that can show us what you can do?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] bdizzle1686:
This is by far the worst post / thread I've ever seen and in my opinion should be deleted. There was just a discussion the other day and"Devs" who bait ppl into funding them by talks of a "rom" being developed. Your past threads show mainly work on Galaxy phones, and 1 of the very few HTC topics was a thread u started a as not even knowing how to root this phone, yet u claim to have a rom in the works. A real dev would at least show some samples of their work instead of saying"hey ppl, send money for new phone(s) and I'll build u all a rom. If I'm wrong about this, mods please feel free to delete my post and/or PM me, but this seems like a blatant attempt at trolling/baiting people into funding a new phone for u. PEOPLE, PLEASE BE CAUTIOUS IN SITUATIONS SUCH AS THIS,DON'T GO JUMPING IN HEAD FIRST AND OPENING YOUR WALLET TO PEOPLE WITH NO TRACK RECORD,ESPECIALLY WHEN L's RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER.

And if I'm wrong, my apologies, but again,this was just discussed the other day (forget exactly which thread), but your not really giving anybody ANYTHING to go on.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erik077:
TMobile (GSM) and Sprint (CDMA) are not even same networks so NO. Most of the phones are locked to one network anyway, but those two have nothing in common
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] About20ninj45:
incorrect information my friend. PLease search xda because thier are several phones from sprint that have worked on tmobile and att. The sprint variant has a international lock a nd a domestic lock. Once they are cracked, then yes, you can use your phone on att or tmobile.. Sprint uses cdma mainly for 3g and voice, and use a sim, yes a sim card for lte. You can call sprint and have them unlock the phone for INTERNATIONAL use only within thier guidelines. So far the note 2 note 3 s3 and s4 have been avaible to use with modification to get onto att and tmbolies networks.

---------- Post added at 01:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 PM ----------

yes but the device has to be unlocked via domestic and internationally. We are working on a domestic unlock...

---------- Post added at 01:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 PM ----------

yes, it displays "invalid sim"

no, older phones had "sim" cards as well. Touch pro 2 was one of them. So before the samsung devices, the htc international devices were able to as well...

Does the galaxytools unlock work on the Note 4? It says my phone is unlocked but I don't have a sim card to test it out.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhill110:
Unlocked for international travel not for domestic. Hopefully a dev will figure out how to unlock the GN4 for use on other carriers in the US.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the790:
'invalid SIM'

Based upon my personal experience, even when the phone is UICC unlocked, it is still locked for domestic use. I unlocked my Note 4 via international at Sprint, but the phone says 'Invalid SIM' when using T-Mobile SIM.

I was able to get an Sprint HTC M7 to work on T-Mobile using just the international unlock method.

Good news though, Sprint will be making most phones unlockable for domestic use by Feb 11th (at least phones made thereafter)... so this means that even if the Note 4 doesn't get some kind of firmware update to allow domestic use, the S6 will and I'm sure somebody will port over the capability.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo3D:
I would like to know as well.

---------- Post added at 01:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:08 PM ----------

Now that it's past Feb 11, we should be able to do a domestic unlock and it should work with Tmobile LTE & voice?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the790:
As specified by Sprint, all phones released before Feb 11th 'will not be DSU(Domestic SIM Unlock) capable'. This means a dev will have to figure out a way to port the S6 modem to the Note 4 and we'll possibly be able to get DSU for the Note 4 that way. (Or at least, that is my understanding of it) Only time will tell at this point.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devilsdouble:
When I got the device yesterday the GPS locked just fine. Then I saw there was an update and I thus downloaded it and flashed it via Odin as I find that easy than doing OTA, besides I was rooted!

The thing is, after the software update I rooted the phone again, by installing SuperSU from Play and updating the binary files and all that, then under SuperSU app it asked whether I want to disable KNOX or not, I obviously hit on Yes. And I think since then the problem has started. The GPS is not getting any lock. It can see 26-28 satellites but can't lock on to a single one! Before that I was getting more or less okay locks, around 8-10 sats out of 26.

I tried Faster Fix, didn't work, I unrooted by the SuperSU app option, nothing! Now finally I master wiped everything again, and flashed the ROM, and now GPS is working again! However I am not rooted as of this moment.

There is no doubt that this is a software problem, but the question is, how can I fix this? I have to depend heavily on GPS due to my line of work, I can't live without it.

Is it the ROM? I am using the latest 4.4.2 ROM of UAE. Should I move to some other ROM? I am sure I am not the first one who faced this problem, so I would really like some opinions on this.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vndnguyen:
So you mean the cause of the problem is rooting?

Try re-rooting to see if it works.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devilsdouble:
Nah, root should not have anything to do GPS lock, at least not by any measurable margin.

But now I am seeing lots of YouTube videos, and I am confident that Note 3 has some GPS problems after all.

See these videos,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBrMBd0fTQ0

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHDVZEKBD8M

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkYeH5Qy1Hg

Something is wrong with GPS with this phone, should be software I believe, but what I don't understand why there isn't a fix for this!

PS: Anyway, what is the latest firmware version at this moment?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fadhil3536:
Try this
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devilsdouble:
Tried it yesterday mate. Found it on YouTube. Didn't do anything good.

After testing for a long while all I can say that this phone is very sensitive to GPS locks! Right now I am having locks of 8-10 sats/21 sats, and that too with 20 feet accuracy, indoor. But the very next moment there's no GPS lock at all. But one thing is reassuring that outside, under open sky, whatever the circumstances are it will be locked just fine, more than fine actually, but the problem happens indoor.

This certainly was not the case with my previous Samsungs, be it the Note 2 or S4. The day GLONASS was introduced it was a dream come true for me, but this phone's performance is somewhat disappointing.

I needn't to say anything, all those video links I posted above are clearly mentioning the issue.

This is for the Wizard Variant for US (8125 & MDA). I am not sure about European layouts etc. But I have the above mentioned 2 devices and with this settings, they work for me.

HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd ------ Locale (REG_SZ) = 0409

Ok Back to the Grammys.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mtvn:
I am not using the PV version. However, on the Orwell version, the locale key does not exist in the registry. The locale key was add-on by PV so the keyboard will work with the local language.

You guys can try to delete the locale key. Turn off your Wizard and turn it back on to make the fixed stick. It should work correctly without the locale key.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ThaRockstar007:
I had an S4 that had NC5 on it and loved it. Battery life was great and the whole phone just runned smoothly. I lost it and got replacement with NG6 on it and I have to charge it 3 to 4 times a day. It also gets hot and says cooling down in notification panel. It's all stock Verizon. I've disabled some apps but that's it. I've let battery completely drain and charged it to 100% bbefore turning it back on. If I have to root I'll go that way. Was going to root anyways. Any suggestions on this battery life would help. Please point me in the right direction. Coming from a Motorola Droid Maxx, the NC5 had battery life like it but this NG6 update has it draining like my old Droid 2 Global SMH.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hightower24:
I'm pretty sure gigilie's method would allow you to downgrade to nc5 from ng6. There has been a lot of people reporting problems with the ng6 update. I'm staying with nc5 for its stability and battery life.

I'm not getting random reboots or anything like that. It's driving me crazy cause the one I lost that was on NC5 ran perfect. I only charged It at night and I used it heavily thru the day and it'd still have at least 20% battery left. Now since NG6, especially if on Skype, battery% goes down 1% every minute and it over heats 2 to 3 times a day. I can't handle this at all
