[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gladhatter:
I share all your concerns sir. I too have not learned yet how to determine if USC nope for exactly carrier locked or no but I am of the firmest belief based on what I've learned from USC at various levels up to the Presidents executive team that it is indeed carrier locked. I cannot answer for yours then I believe that all under phones come in one of the two varieties and I am convinced even after the court ruling against them that they I have no intent to unlock a phone by less than forcesure. Furthermore I have no confidence that the store they may send you to has any unlocking abilities. According to the executive team that does this work in reality you must in the machine into them and prove its worthwhile to be unlocked. In my case well they cannot prove there is any malfeasance, they still choose to err on the side of caution and refuse to accept any proof then I have of the machine purchased new complete and clean but from a second party. They furthermore refuse to contact the locals that originally sold the phone and truthfully are the first corporation that ever more me so thin that I chose to unlock the bang bang myself. I remain as giddy as a schoolboy hoping to hear more good news from this post. I'm confident then I currently have the knowledge to fix the phone but do not currently have the time. I will happily update I'll with my success be crying the Blues at my failure soon.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t00c00l4m3:
To whom might be concern;

Make things short, NO, you cant use USC Note 4 on any US carrier if u look at the spec. The phone support only some GSM850 and FDD LTE band 5 (850mzh). And att/tmobile 2g voice is on gsm1700/2100 and LTE band is not match....... So that being said you are buying note 4 as Samsung Player and only good with USC and somewhat Verizon(need to hack for it to work, and stillike not all feature will work). Hope answer most you guy question

Phone is cdma unlocked automatically on 6.0.1 roms

---------- Post added at 05:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:45 PM ----------

Though the phone is automatically cdma unlocked on android 6.0.1 roms, the bands are still disabled. I suggest following DrPhant0m's advice and look into the posted link above.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrPhant0m:
I've still got the USC Note 4. My son uses it on wifi and to watch videos that we load to local storage. In other words... no sim card installed.

If I manually update the phone to 6.0.1... what will I gain being that I'm a Verizon customer? Is the only difference that 1 band of LTE will be inaccessible? Would it actually start working for calls and some data with a verizon sim?

The whole "reprogram other-carrier Qualcomm phones to work on Verizon's bands" is frequently debunked as chasing a unicorn in the verizon forums.

Further... is the same applicable to newer phones? Could I get a newer (note 5/7) USC phone with android 6.x+ to work with verizon? (Unlocked bootloader would be my only reason to try)

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deadbit:
It's possible to have it work out that way depending on what bands Verizon uses in your area. You can't take it to your standard brick and mortar Verizon store though. I had to take mine to the Verizon store in the mall just to get them to try it. If you are able and feel like making the attempt, try to have it activated on a prepaid Verizon account at a mall Verizon store. Average cost of activation after taxes on the cheapest prepaid plan is around 48 usd...so bring $50 and have them try to activate it. If you already have a Verizon LTE micro sim card you might be able to use that for the activation and get a $20 to $25 discount since you won't have to buy a new one. If activation is successful, congrats, you have a nice new cell number. If activation is unsuccessful, it's not much of a loss aside from travel time and fuel cost as they will refund the cost of activation as well as the cost of the new sim card. The only reason why I say you can't go to a normal Verizon store is because they won't even attempt to activate your USC phone. I took mine to the Town East Mall Verizon here in Mesquite, TX and they were able to get it activated on their network. Of course, when I get out of range of my phone's supported Verizon band range I lose some functionality as far as calling and data...but I can usually still send and receive texts. :)

{EDIT} here is a great site that I use to determine if a phone is even remotely compatible with a carrier service. Http://www.willmyphonework.net

Since your phone is also the cdma USC version, your model is most likely the same as mine. (Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Sm-n910r4.)

Also, the band change/enable method does work...but only for dual-sim and gsm phones, unfortunately. Or at least so far as I have seen.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrPhant0m:
Indeed I have the SM-910R4. I've also got a compatible sim card, since my wife and I both have SM-910V's on verizon.

If the 6.x update sim-unlocks the phone... what could a verizon kiosk do for me beyond putting a working sim (which I have) into the phone and try it? Do they have to add the ESN to their list?

Also... I have yet to hear from anyone that has successfully converted a qualcomm phone to switch US carriers, especially GSM to verizon. All the success stories seemed to be in Europe between GSM carriers if I recall.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zambuka42:
Here's where I'm at:

1) Flashed the T-Mobile CMRemix (Cm13) on to the SM-N910R4

2) Made some tweaks to the build.prop & input a Tmobile APN

3) This gave me an LTE signal that could be used for DATA (but not voice)

4) The preferred network band is still RAT locked (in *#*#4636#*#*, cannot change from LTE/GSM)

5) Also, the wifi will not turn on

6) At this point, I still want: 2G GSM access + Voice Access + Wifi

7) I'm going to try that editing of the NV codes to open up bands

8) I'd also like to try flashing the bootloader + baseband from a tmobile device.. but not sure how

You can enable GSM/WCDMA/LTE with Network. It's on the PlayStore (let me find it and link it ) or you can try Jayfi method

""""""***** Root Phone (Use Ping Pong root)

* Enable service menu

* http://forum.xda-dev...cemode-t3109579

* Change preferred network type to LTE******"""""

---------- Post added at 02:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 AM ----------

The method above is from an S6 but it should be the same. Just ignore "Ping Pong root". As long as your rooted you'll be fine

As for the app, tada https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mangelow.network

I use to use it to force LTE on a CDMA only phone lol.

And dont try flashing T-Mobile basband on it. You'll end up Bricking it and possibly might not be able to recover the phone after.

So I was sad to find out that Sonic Racing Transformed had a game breaking bug on my note 4.

Nothing but a black screen with sound. I also checked the market and saw many note 4 users reporting this.

Naturally emails to Sega were ignored...

Well today I stumbled accross the fix:

GLtools

This handy little app in the market is like chainfire3d 2.0 BUT it does more than just allow you to play Tegra games (well i cant seem to get it to do that at all actually lol)

it also let's you change a whole host of other settings on a per app basis.

If you want Sonic Racing Transformed back then here are my settings which worked for me:

Check "Enable Custom Settings for this app"

check "Optimize GLSL Shaders"

check "Fix FBO attatchment sizes"

check "decode SRGB"

The app costs money but I spent a lot on this game unlocking all the characters and keeping up my dailys

Furthermore if you want to restore your settings from an old device I found that restoring only the data (not the app) from titanium backup had me back in business.

Now I can finally put my old phone to bed...I was using it once a week to make sure I did not lose Ryo!

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chen Taiji Chuan:
Hi all,

I recently decided on trying my hand at rooting my s5, have done my research and this is where i wanted to take my phone, and where to come for help.

Ive gone through Odin v3.07 and no COM's would register, i tried tool kit but it wouldn't start after i installed drivers and such, there was a third one i found through threads in here as well but to no avail, nothing has proved any results.

so this is where you all can swoop in and save the day, when I used Odin (which seems to yield the furthest results) the only trouble im having is opening my phone in the ID:COM section. When I plug my s5 into my linux mint 10.something hp notebook (which could be the whole problem all together), with a v2 or v3 usb it registers as gFTP and I can do very little with the files there. like i noted above, toolbox didnt even open, nor could i even figure out what to do with the third thing i tried using. so, my last resort, a community that actually knows what they're doing...

What advice/guidance can you all pert to me? what do you think the problem might be? do i need to perform a factor reset to root my phone? is it the operating systems i am working on? i tried briefly on a mac osx 10. something and now am on a linux mint.

i am not very tech savy but can pick things up fairly quickly, so pretend im dumb and give explicit detail and i will pick up what you miight be talking about more easily.

P.S. I am NOT a robot lol
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chen Taiji Chuan:
I have been searching through different android support pages today and everyone seems to resolve their rooting issues easily. though their solutions dont seem to provide me with any answers. i can list any info needed for further diagnostics, but to label a few outright, i have enabled usb debugging in developer mode, tried different usb ports and before/after phone is in downlaod mode, i have SM_G900P 4.4.4 and anything else you need, to help me

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NicJames2378:
I was recently attempting to root my father's new Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3, when I encountered an extremely heart-dropping fail...

I have ran into an issue of being unable to enter ANY OS or ROM on the phone. I had a stock Android 4.4.4 ROM on the phone, which I rooted with no problem. I then attempted to install TWRP (I used TWRP Manager (Root)) in order to install SlimKat. However, at this point I encountered an error. I attempted to reboot the phone into recovery mode using the app, and encountered a screen saying "System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest Verison Wireless store for help.". I get the same screen when trying to boot the phone without pressing any extra buttons. I also notice red words in the top-left corner of the screen saying "SECURE FAIL: KERNEL". The only other screen I can get to is the Odin Download Menu.

However, when I try to use Odin, I cannot get anything to flash to the phone except the PINs for the phone (it is an i535 Verison Galaxy S3). Anything else gives me an error, as shown in this image: www(dot)dropbox(dot)com/s/mc6srpy5vhpb9of/nand%20fail.bmp?dl=0

Basically, I am asking if anyone knows of a way to try to restore even just the stock ROM to the phone. As of right now, it is in an unusable condition and I would much prefer if I could fix my father's phone. I will try to give any new info as requested and I am willing to try almost anything to fix it.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] zswielder:
I just wanted to share some info in case there were others who could be negatively impacted by an issue I found.

First, this only applies to people who are using Google Hangouts.

Here it is. I am running a Lollipop on my GS3 (t999l), and I have the latest Hangouts installed. I was aware that Hangouts/GV had missing sms issues here and there over the years. After various troubleshooting in the past, I was under the impression that it was not missing sms anymore. Well, I was wrong. My friend sent me a text, but it wasn't received by my hangouts. This apparently happens only once in a while because I'm usually able to text him back and forth just fine. Anyhow, I began yet another troubleshooting/exploration, and I found what I suspect to be the cause.

I went to Hangouts > Settings > SMS > Access point names

Then, I saw a MetroPCS apn "listed and selected" on the top of the list! Below the MetroPCS apn were T-Mobile US (epc.tomobile.com) and T-Mobile GPRS (fast.t-mobile.com) x 2 (there are two T-Mobile GPRS listed with the identical settings).I have no idea why MetroPCS apn was there, and why it was selected, but apparently that's what it gets selected by default (I used Hangouts' restore default setting feature, and it chose it). I have never ever used MetroPCS, so this is puzzling. In any case, I deleted the MetroPCS apn from the list as well as one of the duplicate T-Mobile GPRS just in case. I then selected the remaining T-Mobile GPRS (fast.t-mobile.com) as the access point.

I think this has resolved the issue (fingers crossed). So, if you use Hangouts too, I highly recommend that you check the above setting to see if there's a weird setting like the one I found. I hope this may be helpful to some people here. If you do find the same/similar issue, please do report back in this thread to share your result.

Hi all,

I own an XDA Orbit and it's certainly the best XDA I've owned to date but there is one annoying problem that I can't seem to remedy.

Whenever I view my tasks, the order doesn't conform with the sort settings that I select. I ordinarily like to have high priority tasks displayed first but when I select "sort by priority", it's anyone's guess as to where my high priority tasks will be listed.
