(I have its Box With Its IMEI Written WIth Model Number and also on Back SIde Of its Battery It states That It Is Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9500) ).But When i put into download mode i saw model name with SPH-L720 ...Now ,M Confused For the phone that i have coz It is Samsung GT-I9500 and showing Model SPH-L720 .. I Was Not aware of any model of S4 Before This But When i searched this model on google i found same phone with same specifications by samsung sprint.. I showed my phone to the samsung care they told me that this phone have custom rom in it but i never flashed it before with any rom instead.. I checked its model in About Phone And It Shows SPH-L720 .. so Can i Flash Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 Stock Rom On this Issue To Show My Phone Model Name About Phone As GT-9500 And Not SPH-L720 coz all things and specifications of both Models Are Same ..:confused::confused::confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] SugarSweetKunal:
Do you mean That On this Sprint GS4 Phone we can flash i9500 ROM to make it look like i9500 Phone ??:confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] daniel4653:
Yes because the build prop on the phone will show the model number as the international model. But at the end of the day the phone will be a SPH-L720

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] NIFTYTAT411:
So can we flash a i9500 rom on a sprint s4? What if we're on lollipop?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
Flashing ROMs and mods for another device is probably the easiest way to hard brick your phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] NIFTYTAT411:
Is their a program I can use on the computer to port it to our phones? Would that be safer
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
None that I know of. You would have to do it manually and add the mods to the apks for your device. This stuff is a lot of work, there isn't an easy way to do it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] NIFTYTAT411:
Okay thank you for the help, I'll look into it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] elguneid:
same thing with my phone SPH-L720 on bootloader and i9500 in.setting > about > model number ( GT-I9500 ).. i tried to flash cyanogenmod 12.1 for SPH-L720 but it couldn't flash ..stuck during CMW processes ... and when i tried to boot it it stuck on samsung logo ...

i want to back to stock rom but i don't know which rom i should falsh L720 or I9500

please help
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
Look under your battery. The model # there is the actual model number.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] elguneid:
under barrary it's GT-I9500 also , but on download mode it's SPH-L720 , i don't know what is that !!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
That seems like they put the motherboard of an L720 into the GTI9500... or something like that. If you can, take it back to wherever you got it. Unless you flashed software for a different phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] elguneid:
i can't take it back ... so i'm asking for solution to this issue

i can't use it now ... stuck in samsung logo:(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
Download the latest firmware for both devices and see which ones flashes through Odin. It won't let you flash firmware that's not for your phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] elguneid:
the previous built was I9500OLBFNB4
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
Then I would flash the NB4 or newer tar in Odin... that is definitely not for the L720.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] AndyYan:
Please confirm what model you actually have using the method above.

If you are absolutely sure you're flashing a ROM for the right model but it won't let you, just remove the assert lines in the ROM zip's updater-script. Again, this is dangerous if you aren't 100% sure what you're doing!

ex : 123456789012345-L720VPFNG2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
Thought we determined you had a GTI9500? You said the last software on there was one that doesn't exist for Sprint. I'm done with this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] elguneid:
That is what makes me crazy . How it could be ? I don't know but it was i9500 firmware

try firmware that i have shared in below thread .

http://xdaforums.com/android/help/samsung-gti9500-firmware-help-t3455858

its worked and its working smooth . I also had the same issue .

Now I am on SPH-L720 . Its working smooth and no difference . i think this version is more stable and without any bug.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neider02:
Hi everyone,

I am facing a problem with space. All applications are showing a message saying that there is no space in the device, applications such as default camera, spotify, screenshots etc. In the settings I can see that I have 9,21GB free.

Also, I can install apps from google play without problem, no space error message.

This is what I did:

I was using Android 4.4, installed TWRP, wiped EVERYTHING (internal memory included, everything.), had to flash with kdz in download mode to recover my phone. After this I installed v10A, rooted with purpledrake, twrp, standard wipe, flash v20f bumped and supersu 2.40 from twrp.

Finally I have Android 5.0 v20f rooted but applications can't access any space memory, I guess that I destroyed something when I wiped everything and was playing a little bit to unbrick my phone.

Does anyone has any clue about how yo solve this? Thank you very very much!

I leave it locked for some time and when I unlock it, no WiFi! And yes, the WiFi during sleep is set to always stay connected...

[Xperia SP Android Development] vvaklnprm:
Just tested the ROM

Blazingly fast, ALMOST everything perfect ( except the few known bugs)

Something that i THINK hasn't been mentioned before -> phone overheats a lot during normal usage

Looking forward to seeing a 99.9% stable ROM in two or more months! Thanks a lot furrydaus! :)
[Xperia SP Android Development] ch3tan007:
The build 2 is quite stable and lag free, LED notifications are working, but the battery discharges fast and also the phone heats up, Music FC(i know by disabling Nu player in developer option it works), but after continuous tapping still no developer option( i disabled it first and when i again tried to enable, it didn't happen).

Here are some screenshots in attachements.

:o:o:o:o
[Xperia SP Android Development] bushladen:
I'd try to disable nuplayer but still fc of music or "can't read the media" for google play music ( uninstall the last update makes it works but I still face some fc)
[Xperia SP Android Development] ch3tan007:
still there are random reboots due to adaptive brightness so don't use it.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Furrydaus:
Thanks for the logcat! Well, it translates to the problem with the SELINUX Enforcing Kernel and it will hence the Wi-Fi errors

But I hope you fixed all of them ! Cos' your a powerful developer , dude !

Thanks again , I'm counting to the moment that you release it <3 !

TASKER Profiles for automatic Data script run.

So, here are two profiles for automatically running the Data-fix script, so you don't have to launch Scripter every time you need to connect to mobile data.

The first one (Data_Run_Script) should be enough, but I rather include the one which runs the script when the Wi-Fi disconnects, you never know. ;)

Extract the zip to your SD card and through File Manager select to open/run the file in Tasker or copy the file in /Tasker/profiles. Then in Tasker double click "Profiles", click "Import" and select the profile. In Tasker, double-click the "Profiles" tab, select "Import" and then select the Profile. ;)

Hope you find it usefull. If you encounter any problem, don't hesistate to contact me.

(I may try to create same profile for Automate or some other free automatition app).

Edit: Also forgot to mention you don't need to have scripter installed and the script saved.

Edit 2: Be sure your Tasker is on the newest version (4.6u3), you can download trial here
[Xperia SP Android Development] Furrydaus:
Looks great! Thanks for the effort dood! :)
[Xperia SP Android Development] miki.cis:
No problem ;) I just tought this could be usefull and it also could make shut up everyone complaining about having to run the script everytime ;)

I can also create one which would run the setenforce after the boot, so you don't need to run Terminal. (maybe you could add it to the guide then :angel: )

And also [MENTION=5934815]Furrydaus[/MENTION], can You find a way to integrate music beat effect of LED into any music player for custom ROMs... Most 3rd party apps dont work and also the new Walkman update doesnt have that feature (I just now updated it in My Stock ROM and LED was not beating with the music, and many other also reported the same for SP)... The main reason for Me to select SP over ZR was the illumination Bar... Please pave a path...

Tasker: Auto sim on boot

So here is the second profile for Tasker, which runs after boot and enables the SIM

without having to use Terminal

. (Just let there some time for Tasker to start after the boot. Tested and working.)

Set up procedure same as with data profile.

Extract the zip to your SD card and through File Manager select to open/run the file in Tasker or copy the file in /Tasker/profiles. Then in Tasker double click "Profiles", click "Import" and select the profile. In Tasker, double-click the "Profiles" tab, select "Import" and then select the Profile.

I don't feel qualified to be putting it up. If you want me to be on that list, then you can suggest me to him. I don't want to bother him cos he has a lot of work with RR anyways. :/
[Xperia SP Android Development] Furrydaus:
I'll be pushing the ROM to an undecided date due to me needing more time. Although time frame will be fixed:

14-30 February

This is the timeframe the next update will arrive.

As an added bonus to this post, I'll list out the features I'll be including in the next update:

-Control Centre Application (Control Kernel Features, OTA Updates)

-HitBox™ Kernel (Fast Boot, Fast Charge, Permissive Kernel and possibly more)

-Internal+External Storage Combined (Since you all wanted the Move To SD Function so much)

-Increased Touch Sensitivity (Glove Mode)

HitBox is an ongoing back end development by a team of developers based off the Williams Kernel Sources and other new functions found online

Control Centre will allow you to check on updates, control HitBox and install other useful applications such as XDA One.

This will all come in the month of February although it may subject to last minute changes. I want to try my best to fix bugs using my xperia sp. Donating one you might not want may help too :P

Download Hosting for this ROM will be subjected to the overall results of the Survey Posted earlier. If you want to help out by posting your own hosting service, then I will review it and see how it will go.

Thanks for making the Xperia SP awesome!
