[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reynierpm:
Hi there, I have a MotoG and I'm just wondering which is the equivalent to Samsung EFS partition (where phone IMEI is store) in order to create a backup just in case because days ago a friend of mine lost their Samsung Galaxy S4 due to bad SO upgrade (some Wifi issues and voala phone hasn't IMEI and isn't recoverable) so where is the partition I should backup and which tool I can use to do this?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
Originally it was believed the equivalent partitions was "PDS," however this has turned out to be the case. You could try backing up all partitions with something like Partitions Backup & Restore. None essential partitions include: System, Data, and Boot.

Bootloader is stored in a non-user-accessible partition - it's quite possible IMEI is saved in a similar way. Even with a backup of all partitions, you may not be able to recover IMEI.

The main (only?) way people loose IMEI on Moto G is by running the fastboot command: fastboot erase all

IMEI recovery research is being done here: http://xdaforums.com/moto-g/help/info-moto-g-imei0-t2925970
[Sprint LG G3] thablackphoenix:
I previously rooted my friend's G3 on Sprint (LS990, ZV4, KitKat 4.4.2) with Stump Root, and used this thread

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/general/guide-g3-hotspot-apn-edit-t2889436 to make the hotspot work. He updated to ZV6 thinking it would fix some LTE issue that was happening. The LTE problem was related to coverage and eventually went away on its own, but now he lost root. I found out how to wipe and downgrade back to ZV4, did that, rooted with stump root again successfully, and tried to redo the hotspot fix. I assumed it would work as simply as last time, but when my friend went to turn it on, he said the WiFi Hotspot option is missing.

I have tried everything from play store replacements to widgets to build.prop edits but nothing seems to work; the best I have gotten is creating a network with the chainfire tether app but being unable to get any internet through it. I'm assuming the missing option is an indicator that the hotspot is completely disabled somewhere else. Any ideas?
[Sprint LG G3] 1619415:
This same thing happened to me after downgrading you have to do the ##RTN# fix. Just revert to 100% ZV4 (unrooted) like before. Then call sprint and ask for his msl code. Once you got it go into the dialer and type in the ##RTN# click "reset" and type in the code from Sprint. This will wipe everything and reset it with everything that originally came with the phone. After the reset then root it and do what you wish.

[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
You might also try updating profile and PRL. If that doesn't work, try entering ##72786# in the dialer. I had a similar issue, and that fixed it for me.
[Sprint LG G3] rko1238:
Did you ever figure out how to fix this?
[Sprint LG G3] rko1238:
I figured it out! change ro.build.target_country=US to ro.build.target_country=COM
[Sprint LG G3] ncjo:
Instead of resetting you could also manually enable it if you have root and app 'Shortcut Master(Lite)'

In the app, do a search for 'ChameleonNodeMenu' and launch it.

Click 'Tethered Data' and SET value to 3.

Reboot

If you're on a MVNO, it is necessary to enable manually (if disable) as it will not auto enable with ##RTN#.

You can also enable Roam setting menu by setting Roam Pref/Menu Display value to 1

Missing hotspot capability after using LGFlashtool

I lost my hotspot tethering when I used LG Flash tool to fix a phone that was stuck in a continuous start-up cycle. I have an LG Volt with Android version 4.4.2, Kernal 3.4.0+ Build number KOT491.LS740ZV6 and Software version LS740V6. When I use root checker, it states Root access is not properly installed on this phone. I do not think I tried to root it.

I have tried apps to get my computer to use my phone as a hotspot since that ability is now missing on my phone, but I cannot get them to work. Can you please explain how to do this? I see ways listed above (tethered data or ro.build.target), but I do not know where to start to even get those to work.

Thank you!

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowmmk:
hi, I just got a Galaxy note 4, I can connect to wifi everwhere but not at work. I get error that password is incorrect, I have the same password so I know my password. My stepson has a galaxy s5 and has no problem connection. I actually just returned my first phone after trying 5 days to get it connect at work. Both Comcast box and firewall have been reset. So I am not sure where to go stepson suggest change to developer operating system. I have tried safe mode, soft reset and factory reset to no luck.

This is last resort - before I return and get a different brand/model phone
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zurkx:
if you can connect everywhere except work its your work problem. some workplaces use cisco and proprietary protocols to login to wifi after connection. if your workplace does that you will not be able to connect. no phone will. ask your work wifi to use WPA2 with AES instead of some proprietary protocol for wifi. if your son has installed some non standard rom to get his s5 to connect you will need to buy an s5 and do the same.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darekz:
It is very likely that your work uses wifi protected setup. You need access to router or access point to finish setup. Ask your IT guys to help you. It needs to be done once only.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowmmk:
response from IT

Response from my IT guys - -they are very helpful since this is a personal phone and not company issued.

I don't have a good reason for this one device to have a problem connecting to this one network. I believe we have eliminated common errors such as mistyped or incorrect password, since you have personally been able to connect other devices without issue. This also eliminates the possibility of a 1-time setup or authorization requirement, as you did not need that for the other devices. I will need to look into whether there could be a technological incompatibility between the two devices.

We will look into this further and have to get back to you.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowmmk:
response

We have a WPA2. We have people come visit all the time and have them connect.

I am just wondering in there is something in this phone operating system that is more technological updated than the systems we are using and could be the problem
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darekz:
I still would try to use Wifi Protected Setup. It is software depended and Note 4 is capable of using WPS while many others not. It is possible that software in Note 4 sensing that access point has that feature and requesting it. Im not network specialist but I setup few laptops for my friends. They were using Dell Vostro laptops and by default they required using WPS to connect to home network. Once that feature was disabled they connected with no problem using user password.

not possible since i have connected to both WPA2-PSK AES and WPA2-EAP AES systems. EAP requires a username/password instead of just a password.

the only system i have not been able to connect to is a WPA-CKIP and WPA2-CKIP which is a cisco proprietary protocol.

Hi all,

My Phone has connected to the company wifi. I was searching for an infinity hot spot since I am an infinity customer and was scanning and then I am connected to the company wifi. Then it began to do all these updates and I did nothing to prompt this. (weird since it can connect at home and this did not happen) I have been in contact with Samsung and have been explaining my issue - part of their process is you need to enter model and serial number- is it possible for them to track my phone - I am wondering as when I have called HP for service they can find my laptop. Very weird, but I am happy, Hopefully it will continue to work like this and I can begin to use this phone to its full potential.

Sorry for the caps, but I have been trying to figure this out for the past 48 hours. I woke up the other day with an update for CM11, updated it and found myself with no access what so ever to google play services. So, being the genius that I am, I went into TWRP-->Wipe-->Advanced Wipe and I wiped everything, Dalvik Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Cache, Micro SDcard & USB Storage. Turns out doing this deletes EVERYTHING. The only thing I have left on my phone in Download mode and TWRP Recovery where it notifies me that there is no OS installed. ADB Side loading is NOT an option. I also only have access to a Mac computer, forcing me to use JOdin instead of Odin. The problem I am running in to from here is that JOdin needs a .pit file (yay). I have downloaded the G900W8 pit file from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2737448 as I cannot manually extract the pit file, but when I use it in JOdin it tells me the file is corrupt. I have tried finding another pit file for my device but I cannot find one anywhere! Another problem I have run in to is with the firmware itself. I downloaded the firmware from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/31998/G900W8VLU1ANF3_G900W8OYA1ANF3_BMC.zip/ and it downloads as a .zip but i need it in the format of an MD5 file. Now, when I extract the zip file it extracts in to a MD5 file halfway through extraction, and then it expands in to a full folder with no MD5 file. If someone could help me with this it would be greatly appreciated! Also, did i brick my phone?

I read "All the Internet" and there is no other place explaining in english except here for this particular phone so I think one more point of view is not hurting anyone.

You may want first to see the link of stefano2626 then go back. He assumes you have no trouble with the drivers. I posted 2 links with drivers below so you wont need to search it along with the original Firmware & uptate from Prestigio site in case you need it in future but all the files you need for now are in the stefano2626's link which posted below .

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2541009

I downloaded the first link and uncompressed it in "system_recovery" folder on Desktop like stefano2626 said on the link.

After installing all the drivers (because i wasnt sure if/which will work) i wrote 'adb devices' to see if it reads my phone and then typed "adb reboot bootloader" The phone restarted but instead in recovery it "stuck" on boot image - thats WHAT YOU WANT -then hit the "install-system-windows.bat' from the uncompressed folder from the link of stefano2626 (which posted below). The display will flash in white for 1-2 sec then go dark,dont worry wait and dont touch anything. The phone will start showing you what its doing and after its finished will start normally. Then update it from settings/about phone/system updates trough internet because it will be the older version (firmware). Thats it.

optional: To be easier type CMD in search go to directory and copy it ,not the shortcut but the file "cmd.exe", then paste it in the uncompressed folder from the link and start it from there. That way it will start from the folder & you wont type as much.

I applied these links I found in my "quest" - download them in a folder somewhere in your harddrive in case you need them in the future. Restart Windows if doesn't recognize the drivers. You can uninstall them, restart & install the drivers again. After restart & before install you may wanna clean your registry.

Im not sure if it is relevant or not thats why I should mention it. I pasted update.zip from the original prestigio Firmware v1.0.16 in the uncomressed "system_recovery" folder and then I hit "install-system-windows.bat'

p.s. I would like to see more content for this phone. Its not so popular but in Europe and Russia there is a significant part Prestigio owners.
