I think I answered my own question as to whether the Band selection is permanent.

I used the hidden menu (http://xdaforums.com/verizon-lg-g3/general/unlocked-lte-bands-vs985-t2909150) method in a KK ROM to enable all my bands (LTE 3,4,7,13) and then went to LP ROM. The hidden menu is not available in LP ROMs but I wanted to be sure these bands were selected for upcoming international travel.

Using QXDM I read the current value of 06828 to be 4172 which NV calculator confirms is LTE 3,4,7,13. The value of 06829 was still the 4104 which calculated to only LTE 4,13 but for the LG G3 VS985 the 06829 value is not mandatory to active bands (that is what I gathered from reading multiple posts about 06828 and 06829 values; some devices do not require both values be changed but 06828 is mandatory)

So basically this does stick through ROM changes but in the case of Verizon LG G3 I would use the KK hidden menu since those changes also stick through upgrade. Just upgrade to LP ROM after making the change to bands. Especially since QPST and QXDM were a little difficult to setup.

Also the idea of changing NV (Non Volatile) values by definition would stick through ROM changes as it means "hard coded".

Would this also work on a Verizon Note 5?
[Verizon LG G3] wpbear:
Last month I changed from Verizon to T-Mobile due to Verizon raising rates on Grandfathered UDP.

I'm still using the same LG G3 from Verizon and just put the T-Mobile SIM in the phone. It worked just fine on CM 12.1. Picked up LTE, HSPA+ and normal H depending on location and inside or outside buildings etc.

I installed LTE Discovery app to see what towers I was connecting to. On two separate occasions it said I was connected to a Band 12 tower.

How is that possible? Unless the hardware chip is there and it was just disabled. Is it possible entering the numeric value for all bands to be active reveals this phone had more hardware bands than originally thought?

All my Google searches say this phone does not have the hardware. Are we sure the chip doesn't have it? What's going on?
[Verizon LG G3] geminihc:
thank you for this!

unfortunately installing QXDM apparently requires no higher than win7 32-bit as it will show IE6 error. has anyone found a way around this to work on Win8 64 bit?

Unlock ALL BANDS, vs985, Lolipop CM12.1?

Can this be done on Lolipop? CM 12.1x NIGHTLY (latest 2015/11/xx).

I found QPST and QXDM - QXDM Ver. 3.12.714 & QPST Ver.2.7.363

Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1 x86 – x64

Looks like they'll run on Windows 10 64 bit.

QPST/QXDM method does not matter which ROM you are using.
[Verizon LG G3] hugoprh:
Hi all,

I've been trying to unlock more 4G bands on the phone, but on QXDM I can't connect to the phone, I follow your guide, but still nothing, then read this guide here, and it seems that I have to enable "CP USB", but the verizon hidden menu does not seem to have that option, I can see the PORT on the "device manager" on Windows, but not on QXDM.

I know it's been a long time, but if you can let me know how did connect the G3 to QXDM, any version of the ROM that I should be? I tried 10b, 23C and CM13, but no luck.

Hope anyone can help me with this =)

Keep up the great work =D
[Verizon LG G3] hugoprh:
Please see attached screenshots for the issue above.

Let me know if anyone can help =D
[Verizon LG G3] koolhunk1:
Are you sure this works?
[Verizon LG G3] wpbear:
Yes
[Verizon LG G3] hugoprh:
I followed this guide here and now I can edit the value suggested on that guide, but still no 4G, band 3 is supported by my network, but even with the changes, I only have H+, i've checked the APN settings and they're all correct =(

Any other ideas?
[Verizon LG G3] snoop5:
Do any of these tweaks help with signal for Verizon users
[Verizon LG G3] hugoprh:
Got QXDM working finally, but I do the changes on the NV Browser, press write, then read and I see that it has been saved, but after I restart the phone, the stock values are back again, any idea why the custom value is not being saved after reboot?

There is a line on the tutorial that I can't make it out, which is "[ID File 06828 and ID 06829] Press Read and change to this custom Value 17592185995263 then prees Write. JUST THE FIRST LINE that have value on it." what is the "ID File"? I can see the "ID 06828", but I don't understand what does the "File" mean.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Verizon LG G3] getoffmeluckycharms:
You need to write a 0 to it first, then write then read the new value then write the value you are wanting it to be. See if it will stick that way.
[Verizon LG G3] JohnM_rit:
I put SkyDragon v6 in place of Team OctOs on the phone to see if this works, because diag mode for qxdm requires a stock os. CM based roms do not have diag. Apparently.

Skydragon/Android 5.1.1 and I can't get diag mode on and qxdm communicating w the phone. Any help?

Adb works. Though 'setprop sys.usb.config diag,adb' doesn't seem to do anything.

Ideas?

Had someone a concise step by step guide?

4G LTE works here in Hawaii. However, I was wondering if any of you had the same problem I'm having. When I make calls it always changes to 2G and it takes a few seconds to make the switch. I know there is no band 12 here, but is this normal?

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EJSMiranda:
Good afternoon for all! I need your help! Yesterday I accidentally dropped my phone and when I looked at the screen I noticed two little problems, it works perfectly, but it has one dark scratch and a little dark spot, but I don't know if they are in the Touch Panel (Or Gorilla Glass, I don't Know) Or they are in the LCD Panel. The Scratch looks dark in front, but if you look putting the phone aside, it illuminates and looks white. The Dark spot becomes larger if you apply pressure. This two problems are almost not noticeable until I open White or Clear colors screens.

I would be very grateful if someone could help me to know from where is the problem, the Digitalizer or from the LCD. Sorry for my bad english! I Still learning! :)

* your warranty is now void.

* i am not responsible for bricked devices, dead sd cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this rom
* before flashing it! You are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, i will laugh at you.

-- This is my first rom, that I build from scratch using several guides on xda :) I hope that it will jump start development for our lovely phone and provide more data and useful files to ongoing custom roms. You can use this rom to make CUSTOM STOCK ROM's, and it would be nice if you mentioned me as source for your rom ;)

-- I didn't test it since my phone is not rotted yet and I didn't unlock bootloader :p I hope that you will test this rom, since I didn't change anything from stock and I just extracted it and made odex and deodexed version.

Next thing I plan is to root and unlock bootloader on my phone and to try to use G3 theme and apps from G2 stock roms :) I will keep you updated as times goes bye, but you are free to do it on your own since I don't know when will I have time since holidays are coming :)

Steps of extracting rom:

I tried to download it from work and from home, and I had maximum download speed (1mb and 4mb ), I will try to upload it to faster server today/tomorow.

All the steps are in the first post ;)
[LG G2 Mini] doloresmiska:
This is for flash in cwm for example?

[LG G2 Mini] partyzant_x:
Since author dont test it dont flash this rom. I dont see any point to publish the untested rom.
[LG G2 Mini] predragiPredrag:
Sorry to hear that, I hoped that it ould work from the start, since I didn't do any modification. I will try it myself next week and report if I succeed in making it work without problem :)

I have published it as my first try of making ROM, and as potential source of drivers and modules for other developers :)
[LG G2 Mini] predragiPredrag:
I have found out that my update script in METAINF folder was missing, that is why /system was not mounted. I have fixed it, and I will test it in 1-2 days. So if everything works we will have flashable stock ROM :)

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] charlesleviton:
Hi

I inherited a Samsung Galaxy 4 player from my daughter. I want to use it primarily for listening to audio books and have installed smart audio player for this purpose.

Earlier I was using an old Windows Phone. On that device if I turn off the display or it turns off after the specified interval, when I turn it back on the audio player controls (play/pause control primarily) are visible on top of the screen saver making it easy to pause or resume.

With the android device however, this is not the case. If the display goes off when I turn it back on (using the button on the top right side of the device) I am presented with a screen saver and an instruction to sweep glass to unlock. There are no audio player controls visible.

Is there anyway to bypass that initial screen, i.e. not have it display at all? Since more often than not I would have been in the audio player app before the display turned off, at least I have direct access to the controls.

Let me know if my request makes sense or you need additional information.

Thanks

[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] veletron:
Hi

I have the LTE model. I am supposed to be able to get £30 cashback on the tablet in the UK at sony.co.uk/tabletcashback This website asks for an IDID number, my device has an IMEI number not an IDID number since it is the LTE model. Sony's website will not accept an IMEI number.

Has anyone else with the Z3 Tablet LTE model in the UK managed to claim the £30 cashback?

Nigel
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] jutley:
I can't claim till the 15th Dec but glad you bought this up I haven't checked it yet hope it works.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] marcgear:
I can't seem to get it to work full stop keeps saying idid number not recognised. I contacted sony and they just asked me to try different browser.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] veletron:
I believe that sonys website is broken. The 621GB/B is the LTE specific model? Selecting this in the drop down should mean that the websitr asks for the IMEI rather than the IDID. I contacted them on the phone, but they did not want to know. I fear we wont be able to claim until/unless they fix the website. Maybe if someone else contacts them by phone as well things will be done?
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] xuggs:
Lucky you guys.. here in the UAE, the Z3 Tablet Compact is supposed to come with a complimentary case with the purchase which they couldn't give me because they have none. Fart faces.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] jutley:
Just a thought you guys have waited 21 days from purchasing the device? as they wont accept the claim unless its been 21 days maybe this is the problem.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] ejdan:
In Sweden I got complimentary headphones, MDR-ZX750, with mine. That was when preordering from a local web shop (not Sony). Pretty good deal since the price of the headphones is about 30% of the tablet value.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] marcgear:
Yes mine been over 21 days but still no joy I'm just leaving information few more weeks.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] xuggs:
That's a super sweet deal. Congrats. What's that local web shop name?
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] ejdan:
The web shop was netonnet but the deal was only valid for preorders. I ordered mine end of October.

The package is still available but the price is much higher now:

[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] xuggs:
That's still not a bad price at all compared to Dubai. For that same price I got the LTE version of the tablet + a complimentary case which I did not receive sadly.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] jutley:
Any fix to this problem yet can't enter imei number for cashback.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] jutley:
I have now emailed Sony about this cashback problem for models of SGP621 not having a imei box to select let's see what happens.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] wildestpixel:
I have also emailed Sony since my IDID is invalid for my 32GB Wifi - they basically state that the tablet offer has nothing to do with them in the UK and that contact should be made with Sony Europe (who are based in the UK) by telephone on 0207 365 2810.

The support is awful. As a group of companies it is Sony's offer and they should make internal communication to support their external users - not just fob them off with telephone numbers and shirk responsibility.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] jutley:
I agrea I will make a official complaint about this to the appropriate department it's well out of order for such a big company to do this.

Update i have now logged a complaint with sony on this matter and have been told they are looking into this matter now so i will update you guys when they get back to me.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] jutley:
Sony did not get back to me this is bad customer service from them.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] marcgear:
Yeah I love the devices they make but hate the customer service.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] apashu:
Any luck?

I have the same problem "This IDID number is invalid" and bought the Z3 tablet from Currys.

Perhaps they been overwhelmed by sales and caught unprepared to handle the cashback requests?!

Anyhow that's bad for Sony, even more CS are useless .... maybe some Facebook capaign will get the wheels turning?!
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] jutley:
No they never even bothered to get back to my we mail is sent them worst customers service is have ever know no wounder the Lizard group bit them hard up their backsides lol.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] _Sparks:
I bought the Z3 Tablet from PC World and have the invalid IDID number problem.

Just wanted to ask if you managed to get the cashback?

Also, I called customer service and they said that the IDID number isn't valid for the cashback when PC World clearly has this on their website. They told me to go to PC World and fix this problem.

Very dissapointed in Sony, was thinking of getting another Sony product but now I dont think so.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] apashu:
Cashback??? That sounds miles away ...

I received the same answer from CS over the phone that I should go back to store and exchange my device. Say what???!!! That's completely unacceptable!!!

Sony's excuse is that the shops like Currys sold some dodge devices which they had in stock for awhile and push it on the market during the cashback period, hence not being compliant with Sony's list of devices expected to be sold during this time. I find it very hard to believe!

Simply because when I went to shop at the beggining of December, shortly after the Black Friday sale they had NO Z3 tablet (white model) in stock in any of the shops nor in the warehouse so I've been adviced to place the order online for home delivery. It took them more than 2 weeks to deliver which means new stock was ordered.

I bought many other products from Sony in the past, I claimed cashback from them before with no problems what so ever hence I'm a bit shocked this time around.

I knew CS isn't great so no surprise here, I even asked the guy if this is the official advice they been told to provide or a personal alternative ... because this really puts Sony into a bigger embarrassment.

All in all, I purchase a device from an accepted store, during the campaign period so my claim is perfectly valid and entitled!

Here's a screenshot to prove once more how well Sony's claim webpage works, this time the error is related to a "non existing model" :laugh:

[IMG="Sony's crap claim form"]http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.com/3/0/9/9/5/8/7/05-01-2015_16-17-44.jpg?key=tE8nTMhrB3ZUmmaBnh4y_Q&ts=1420475585[/IMG]
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] _Sparks:
I can't believe this! This is supposed to be their responsibility, and we are legally entitled to get the cashback, otherwise it is false advertising! I have taken all the necessary screenshots if necessary.

So what are you planning to do now? How are you going to proceed?

Also does this mean that everyone else who bought a Z3 tablet from Currys/PCWorld has this problem too?
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] apashu:
First, I need to exhaust all options.

I have a case open with Sony for which I'm waiting an answer. I will phone them again today, tomorrow, etc.

If nothing moves fwd, I will call Currys as well to let them know, as they are part of the deal and have obligations as well.

On a general note, we can make more noise on the forums (found this post on Google), FB, TW, etc. perhaps Sony will feel the vibe soon.

Any others impacted by this scandal?
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] jutley:
I had a case too with them they did never get back to me so i phoned them they were going to call me back but they never did call. Absolutely worst ever customer service in the world no wonder they are hated and lizard bit them hard serves them write.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] apashu:
Surely there are more customers affected.

Could be a good story for BBC Watchdog!
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] apashu:
Update - I called CS again today @ Phone: 0207 365 2810, found someone with common sense to discuss this matter.

Finally I received an email from customersupport.EN@eu.sony.com and I have replied with my invoice and photo of box label for them to check.

I hope they will get back to me soon.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact General] _Sparks:
Guys please update what's happening here so I and others who are affected have an idea on what to do!

I called them and that failed. I might email them and see what happens. If that does not work out probably go and check in PC World.

Yeah I think its a good idea to post this in Sony forums. We can also take this legally as this is false advertising!
