Bought it knowing it's blacklisted then shame on him? Blacklisted or not the phone was still the previous guys belonging, he exchanged some reduction in his credit score for the phone, of course he could sell it to someone else. many people buy blacklisted devices and use on other carriers. Many big stores on ebay sell them everyday. Blacklisted are still of values and you sound like they should just be wasted threw away or something. t-mobile s5 has unpaid bill and I'm using it on straight talk with no issues. It was cheaper than a normal one but I wasn't gonna use it on tmobile so everything worked out perfect for me

Changing imei is illegal
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] galaxyuser88:
But is it really worth all the trouble, What would happen if they started to exchange blacklist info with all carriers, Then you are S.O.L. Sometimes you get lucky, but sooner or later that luck will run out. I am not saying they dont have any worth, but as long as it works then they can be used for parts to fix a broken one. That is one reason the big stores on ebay sell them. Its like buying a stolen item getting caught and then telling the judge you knew or didnt know it was stolen, but it was cheap and i should be able to use it and keep it since you didnt steal it. :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] optimusv45:
If it's blocked from a carrier for unpaid bills, it's not like a stolen item at all and won't be blocked on other carriers. The previous owners BOUGHT it NOT STOLE IT with their credit history and it can't be used on original carrier.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fozzy501:
I had the same problem, but I wanted to use that T-Mobile phone with metro pcs. I decided to change the IMEI number, look it up, there are some cheap services where they change the imei and, baamm! I had signal again, however, before purchasing the service ask them if it would would with the carrier you want, if not, get tmobile, they have affordable plans, and pre paid plans and works like a charm.

Or is there another good way to get a reboot option that is almost as simple as just using the power button?

Thanks
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisrozon:
I believe you need to be rooted to make rebooting work, bit most toggle apps will have that option.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raistlin1:
I am rooted and was hoping to avoid a toggle app, I have used power toggles on previous phones and liked it but now with lollipop pull down not sure I want to use a toggle app.

I will look into that app.

Edit: While checking the reboot apps I realized that I have rom toolbox pro, which has a rebooter widget. I am such an idiot.

So I guess the question should be, how can we add advanced reboot menu to the power button?

Downgrading for Upgrading

Dear friends. I recently installed a game named Assassin's Creed on my K Jam. When ever I play this game or other games I get white screen of death after 15 minutes. I want to upgrade my Rom to WM 6.1 for this reason. I have currently WM 5. Now the problem is that my phone is G4. It can't be cid unlocked. I have even used Hard SPL. Soft SPL. Every program from lockiwiz to some cab files. I can't unlock the damn cid. Now what can I do. I have read that there is a rom called CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe. Is this an old rom which I could downgrade to? Can it be downgraded in G4. Please Help! I am in great trouble. The errors I get when upgrading are sometimes This Rom can't be upgraded please hard reset and try again. Error 629 or something. And anohter rom gives a message you mk.mbf file is older so this rom can't be upgraded. Error 600 I think. Thanx in Advance.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] CRACING:
Hi,

Wait for 10 hours and I will be uploading my new and latest ROM.

Do not think about downgrading the G4 device. You will brick you're device

Do these steps to flash the ROM :

This guide is only for G4 device and flash in windows xp. Plz make sure that your device is G4 and has not flashed to hardspl. Check this link

1. Download softspl from here : Link

2. Download any ROM for HTC Wizard : My ROM

3. Extract softspl and The ROM.

4. Go to extracted folder of the ROM and copy nk.nbf file.

5. Go to extracted folder of the softspl and paste the nk.nbf file*.

6. Connect your HTC Wizard and make sure activesync is fully connected.

7. Run START-sSPL.exe from softspl folder.

6. Wait till it ends to 100%.

7. Dos windows closes and ruu will be opened.

8. Take a look on you wizard screen that the screen should be fully white and no active led on top of the device.

9. If step 8 is correct then you continue to flash the ROM. Follow the RUU instruction to flash the ROM.

Note : *nk.nbf and START-sSPL.exe files should be side-by-side.

At unknown percents RUU may hang but you do not afraid or disconnect the device. Wait for some time it will surely complete the flashing.

For more detail about flashing ROM's, check this : link

If you have any trouble plz post:).

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] zabardast_1:
Both the programs 'SoftSPL' and 'HardSPL' are invented by the same very valuable member ' the-equinoxe ' and are posted as Stickies in the G4 forum with clear instructions/heading that its meant for G4 devices.Its strange you cudn't differentiate it as G3 or G4,only if you wud have read it and understood it,instructions are very much crystal clear.Thousands and thousands have benefited from these programs and applications,there's nothing confusing about it.Strange!!!

ksrikanth has simply narrated the same instructions and nothing new,though!

You shud give this credit to the original inventor of these programs,otherwise,there was no other known program to upgrade a G4 device to wm6.He is the 'Angel' in fact.A great service to the wizard community at large,we all will always be thankful to him :D

And,Thanks for the EID greetings :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] sipraomer:
Dear I was making a mistake. First it didn't tell to copy the nk.nbf file to the soft spl folder in that post as far as I can remember. Secondly I was installing the rom after taking out battery when white screen comes and then trying to install it through bootloader. That was confusing. And the instructions got jumbled up at that time. I mentioned G3 catogrization according to other posts in which bootloader way is instructed but it is only for G3 and not G4. Where as in G4 we have to install rom while the white screen is there and that should also be through the nk.nbf file which we copy from the rom folder to soft spl folder. THis thing was not clearly written in the rest of the posts. This is what I was talking about. As it is my first flashing. So I faced these problems. Anyways this way or that way I got my objective and that is the thing which means to me most. All the people of previous posts as well as this user have contributed so all get credit. Cheers. And best regard.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] zabardast_1:
Placing nk.nbf in the SpftSPL folder is only required while flashing through SoftSPL method,this is a temporary method,you'll always have to use or flash through SoftSPL,but if you apply HardSPL,the phone is Semi-Permanent CID unlocked and remains like this untill you personally don't remove HardSPL.With HardSPL,you just flash and upgrade in Bootloaders like an official stock rom or as in G3,thats the difference in SoftSPL and HardSPL.Yes! a G4 device can be Flashed/upgraded through Bootloaders.BTW,sSPL is a bootloader too :)

I'll suggest,you reread the SoftSPL sticky again.Regarding instructions in the SoftSPL sticky, I quote:-

"USE AT OWN RISK

How To use?

If you don't know what a G4 safe ROM is, don't even try to upgrade!

WILL NOT WORK IN VISTA

-Unzip SoftSPL.zip

-copy the nk.nbf file from desired G4 safe ROM to the SoftSPL folder

-Fully Connect to ActiveSync

-Run START-sSPL.exe

-the Screen of your Device will turn white, don't panic, this is normal

-SoftSPL will now run the RUU, proceed as usual (the screen of the wizard will stay white during whole process, again don't panic!)

DO NOT PROCEED WITH RUU if the screen isn't WHITE, OR when in bootloader SPL version isn't 2.21.olip"
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] sipraomer:
Buddy. I was talking of that stupid multi colored boot loader. Although I have no problem with the developer or his product. But I want to ask one question. IF things get done with soft SPL then whats the need of Hard SPL. I mean to hell with permanent semi cid unlocking. just relax fool the G4 for sometime get the job done and thats it. Anyways. You win and I loose. Man. They were clear and I was blind. Hhahhahhahah
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] sipraomer:
Ok now here is a problem which I have been facing since I bought my K Jam. Dear. Tell me that can I assign the asterisk button * key to any soft key. Because some games like Assassin's Creed are not recognizing the asterisk key so if by some registry hack will it be possible to re assign that key so that the game may recognize it. OR is there any emulator for games which can assign the control keys?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] zabardast_1:
Which is your device,G3 or G4 ? and which rom is working on it at present.YES! its always possible to revert back to official rom and Bootloaders (IPL/SPL),only the method differs for both the devices.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mohen:
i got g4, with

ipl 2.21.0001

spl 2.21.olip

i have WM6.1 rom that cooked by newbie 1221.

the question is, do i need my old SPL and radio ? cause i know i can't find them, it's too old .

i have my old rom from my service provider, just afraid to brick my device..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] CRACING:
Hi,

Your device is already flashed to hardspl so do not flash any official ROM's Or you will surely brick your device. Which is the maker of your wizard?

Short details of hardspl :

ipl 2.21.0001

spl 2.21.olip ( Is known as hardspl )

Follow these steps to remove hardspl:

1. Download Qtek 9100 G4 Main IPl&SPL.zip which is attached below. ( Do no worry, this zip is for all th G4 Device which have 2.21.0001 SPL/IPL )

2. Download softspl from here : Link

3. Extract softspl and the provided zip file.

4. Go to extracted folder of the Qtek 9100 G4 Main IPl&SP and copy nk.nbf file.

5. Go to extracted folder of the softspl and paste the nk.nbf file*.

6. Connect your wizard and make sure your activesync is fully connected.

7. Run START-sSPL.exe from softspl folder.

6. Wait till the dos windows apps ends to 100%.

7. Dos windows closes and ruu will be opens.

8. Take a look on you wizard screen, that the screen should be fully white and no active led on top of the device ( I mean network led, power led, wifi led or bluetooth led).

9. If step 8 is OK then you continue to flash the spl/ipl. Follow the RUU instruction to flash the ROM.

10. It completes in 1 - 2 min. Till then do not disconnect or open any softwares. Keep it mind that, your flashing spl/ipl and if something goes wrong, you will surely brick your device )

11. Now you removed hardspl.

Note : *nk.nbf and START-sSPL.exe files should be side-by-side.

Steps for flashing official ROM:

1. Download the official ROM ( Note the official ROM should be the same maker of your device. I mean, If you have a qtek 9100 then you should download qtek official ROM.

2. Extract the official ROM which you have downloaded.

3. Run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe.

4. Now you can continue to flash the ROM.

5. Thats all, Now you have the official wm5 ROM.

At unknown percents RUU may hang but you do not afraid or disconnect the device. Wait some time it will surely omplete the flashing.

Warning :

* Before flashing, make sure you have ups for the pc.

* Use windows xp.

* Before flashing, make sure you have not running any background software.

If you have any trouble, Plz PM or post here......

Good Luck

Thanking You

Ok,no problem,as your phone is HardSPL,first remove HardSPL,reflash back to official original Bootloaders(IPL/SPL) and then afterwards reflash the official stock rom with which your phone came,its all very easy,just read and follow this link :-

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=342744

And,just don't worry about the old Radio Rom or old IPL/SPL,as its permissible to upgrade by the carrier,just tell them,if they ask,that you upgraded to latest IPL/SPL and Radio Rom,they won't bother.

Its only the Custom Rom and CID unlock they object to,as long as official stock rom is working and G4 devices don't get CID unlocked,it'll show as CID locked,therefore,they have no objection. :D

I rooted my phone a while back with Cloudy G3 and it worked pretty good for a few months, then the 4G stopped working. I had my sim card replaced, but that didn't fix it. I then tried fixing it and hard bricked my phone. With the help from this site, I was able to get it to download mode. I did the update software from lgmobile and it installed 4.4.2 and did a factory reset and the 4G still didn't work. It now has 4.4.2 and I had to root it with stumproot, because towellroot wouldn't work. I then used the flashtool using the kdz file, but it still didn't give me my 4G back. This time I was able to root with towelroot and install all my rooted apps. I found the apn settings for verizon, but after I put them in it won't let me click it as an option. When I go to the setting there is one called vswinternet, but I can't update it. I seen on the net about deleting lteconfig.apk, but I don't have it. Any ideas?

[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] alpurl:
ok, so I have a question or several as I remember them...

I noticed in Beta 4 that we were (or at least I was) suffering from the well documented play movies bug that was afflicting a number of 2013 Nexus 7 models.

Has this been fixed yet?

If not, is there a workaround?

If so, what is it?

I also noticed some performance and stability issues when using the performance tab along with apps like 3c Toolbox and System Tuner. Unfortunately, I did not see a way to use performance tab to overclock the gpu and leave the cpu clock stock so that I could tweak the system through the aforementioned apps.

Also, can the cpu be overclocked beyond 1.5 Ghz?

If so, is this already enabled, or is there some magic involved?

I really liked the beta 4 (beta r3) Rom and the way it looked, felt, and ran.

I found it to be better at managing free memory than kitkat in that I had at least 50% more free ram than Kitkat. I believe this contributed to some of the performance increase. But I had a hard time with the Google Play Movies bug. And some people were saying it was a general problem within the os's video subsystem.

[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] dolorespark:
I'm sorry I didn't know about this until you mentioned it. I'm too poor/cheap to buy stuff from Google Play Movies, so I'd never have learned about this on my own. Fortunately this was my day off, so I was able to spend the afternoon chasing down this bug. Here's the fix - install it from Recovery:

sero7pro-video-drm-fix-dopa5-v1.0.zip

I'll repackage the main ROM in the near future to include this fix, but first I want to investigate a few possible problems I noticed while getting this fixed.

Every time you display the Performance page, it will restore all parameters to the values you set previously. If 'Speed Control' is enabled, it will reset the CPU & GPU speeds, overriding values set by some other app. Your best bet is to turn it off. If neither of the apps you mention knows how to set the GPU speed, you can do so temporarily from a terminal or permanently from an init.d script like so:

echo -n 1250 > /sys/kernel/tegra_cap/core_cap_level # "1200" is 448mhz - "1250" is 520mhz
echo -n 1 > /sys/kernel/tegra_cap/core_cap_state

Nope, not without extending the kernel's DVFS table further, then recompiling. Someone had it running at 1700mhz, but I'd consider that ..umm.. ill-advised for a chip that's intended to run at 1200-1300mhz.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] TheLoonyRebel:
Loving the first build. Very silky smooth speed and pretty stable as well as far as Lollipop is concerned at this point. As far as themes are concerned I haven't had too many issues using them on the current CM12 nightly for the Sero 7 Pro despite the DPI difference. Can't wait to see where this goes from here. Thanks for all the hard work! :highfive:
