Update:

I am just about to return my zerolemon for an anker. However, I would to give some last thoughts.

-zerolemon fit into s4 well. Slight bulge.

-Standby time about 1% per hour. I turn off all the samsung features like s view, greenify a ton, use amplify, and also run hyperdrive to save battery.

- Youtube playback can def reach 5 or 6 hours

- Customer service so far so good. Although I haven't returned my battery yet, they have been very responsive.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] noremac258:
If you're getting 5-6 hours the battery will for sure be outperforming the stock size of the battery.

I normally get 1% loss during my time sleeping. If anything the decrease in standby time would be wake-lock related.

Also I used to use Greenify but honestly I had absolutely no improvements.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] eidoil32:
Where can i buy one of this?i looking for in ebay and Amazon...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] tokuzumi:
I wouldn't bother with this battery, to be honest. I've been using it for a number of months now, and I don't see any noticeable difference in battery life. Maybe as a spare, if you are out and about, sure, but other than that, it's not worth it. Go with an actual extended battery.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Jorexapps:
Are there other extended batteries that wouldn't make S4 to thick?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vladcristian93:
Samsung"s External battery

Is that any good ?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] optimummind:
I did observe a noticeable improvement with this battery. Only negative for me was the missing NFC function.

Hello

I have a Galaxy S4 i337m canadian model (firmware i337MVLUFNC1) that has unknown baseband and null imei.

WIfi and blutooth work. it does not recognize sim card.

I have been reading for two weeks about this problem and tried all the methods that i found on google.

I dont have efs backup.

I don't see the nv_data files in efs folder ( file manager =show hidden files enabled)

Any chance I can fix this phone without the original efs folder backup?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Asadullah:
Haven't done it on the gs4 but you'd have to be able to connect it to qpst

I've actually been looking around at this but haven't been able to find much most information is under backup gs3 imei.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Twisteddd:
Thanks for replay

But that is a way to explore the phone files?

I did a lot of research to find out if the efs file on this model s4 actually contains the .nv_data.bin at all? or it is somewhere else?

Do you know if these files are actually missing from efs folder on i337m? or they are stored somewhere else?

Thanks.

Taking the device back to your carrier and letting them factory restore it your best option other then that you are limited without a backup.

You can try this method... if your rooted but there are no guarantees.

Do these commands from ADB from your PC.

adb shell

su

mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p10

mount -w -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p10

reboot

On your S4, download the Android Terminal Emulator from the Play Store and enter the following commands.

su

echo -n ON > /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode

sync

exit

exit

Reboot into Recovery, and preform a Factory Reset.

I cant find anything for i337m :(

I don't have service menu either. it says service mode on top of the phone and nothing on the screen.

This phone has to be completely reformated even the system partition. There must be a way of rebuilding the whole phone software.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Asadullah:
Yeah its a rough road ahead of you. I know it can be done because people advertise it on craigslist. But I don't know exactly how.

get on stock nb1 and dial *#0808# change usb settings to dm+modem+adb might get you on the right road.

Does null IMEI cause unknown baseband or unknown baseband causes null IMEI?

Which one should be fixed first?

Also the service mode (*#0011#) being blank is it because of the modem is not working?

With the table in any state off or on ......

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mc_eggrolls:
Hi guys!

I'm still new to XDA, and I hope this fits here.

A year ago, I decided to root my ATT Note 3 on 4.3 with Kingo Root. After a while, my GPS didn't work, along with some of the stuff in the phone. I plan to unroot it and then restore it to take it back to ATT with the warranty. However, when I unrooted, it still show a custom padlock on my phone. As time moved on, I gave up about it. I then use safestrap and flashed Knoxraid on my stock rom. However, my network keeps dropping with knoxraid, and I constantly have to restart to fix it. (My APNS were okay) When I did more research, I found out hash no longer supported SS, and the Dev's all bailed on knoxraid. I decide to flash another rom (Dynamic kat) However, my SS no longer works before I can flash a new rom. Every time I turn on the phone, the screen would become black for about 5 seconds after the samsung logo. (This was usually where ss would appear). When I click the bottom 2 buttons, it would vibrate, but still black. If I leave it alone, the google would boot up. I was wondering if there is any way i can boot another rom in my phone or fix this issue with knoxraid. I did not tripped knox yet, still 0x0. However, I don't mind if I void it, since it's already passed my 1 yr.

Thanks

Okay, so after a long time of trying to fix this. I found out that it was somewhat of the Knoxraid problem. I had to wipe date from Recovery, and then Delete and re-install SS. Downgrade from 3.75 to 3.72. Now SS works, and I can boot custom rom from there.

Received Official Samsung Screen Protectors (Made in Korea by Samsung); I personally don't see why I should be spending this much on PET film, when there are better ones costing cheap! These Samsung PET's costed me $20 dollars including shipping. I haven't opened the item because its going back to where it came from, lol. :good:

What are your thoughts?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] flatronics:
Sorry, I dont get it. Why is it not worth it?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] arjun90:
It's unnecessarily expensive. These screen protectors serve temporary protection. Then after all the grime accumulates, you take it off and toss in the trash. You might as well buy something more permanent such as a tempered glass screen protector.

Also, eBay sells dozens of PET film screen protectors, some which are of very decent quality. Xtreme_Guard is selling a 6-pack for only $2.49. Definitely worth it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] flatronics:
I see, got it. Here in our country it cost ~$13.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] infamous6622:
Why buy it in the first place if its too expensive?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] arjun90:
Lol, the order was placed by accident and wasn't able to cancel prior to shipping. I don't know what Samsung is trying to get out of this; but not all your accessories have to be made by Samsung. Here's what I purchased along with the Note 4:

- Mini Wireless Charging Pad (Samsung)

- Otterbox Defender (Black) with Holster

- Zagg HDX and Glass (Note 4)

- A Dozen or So Screen Protector Pack from eBay (for Backup)

- Skinomi Techskin (Clear) for the Note 4

- Pouch

There were additional things I purchased, but later realized how unnecessary it was, and returned them.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Spo0f:
How on earth you ordered them by mistake, haven't used them and you can say they does not worth it?

I've bought mine for $9 and I'm going to apply one of them tomorrow and will have real opinion.

And 2 other things - it is Samsungs accessory and it is normal to cost more. And TGP are having halos, so this is an option for protecting your screen.

Please change the threat topic - it is misleading.

the real question is, does samsung official screen protector actually cover the whole screen with no halos? I'm curious to see if they actually made a screen protector that covered the whole screen knowingly making a curved screen.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] WizeGuyDezignz:
Since these are plastic film screen protectors, of course it doesn't cover the entire glass. It's impossible with this type of protector. The only kind that can currently do that are the wet apply rubber style protectors.

Yes, the Verizon variant supports both GSM and CDMA networks, but its typically called the "CDMA variant" here and elsewhere. When they say its only for GSM M8, they mean you (with the Verizon version)

cannot

do it.

Also, you need to stop posting in multiple places. I see you've posted your issue to 4 different threads. Not only is this against forum rules, but more importantly makes it very confusing for those (like me) that are trying to help, and makes it confusing for you as well.

You also are not giving nearly enough details on the exact steps you did. Stick to one thread, and describe in detail, every single step you have done to this point. You haven't even sufficiently described what files you are trying to flash, and where you got them from.

I can

guarantee

your phone will stay in its current condition, if you continue along this path. Just slow down, take some time, and make a proper post with the relevant details.
