And still you ramble on not making any sense at all. Carry on, I enjoy listening to BS. Keeps my Dodge game on point...: D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
Just get it activated instead of just using the SIM, then you'll be doing something worth mentioning, until then you've accomplished nothing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brd912:
As long as it works for me, I've accomplished all I need to accomplish.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
Everything you say about it just proves you're the type that doesn't care about right and wrong as long as you get what you want and to hell with anybody that says anything about it, which is what I've been saying all along, you'd probably screw your own family over as long as you profited from it, that's nothing to be proud of, but you'll learn that before you leave this world, but you just might not like how you learn it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brd912:
No you dumbass, I do not care. If I buy service and then buy a phone and it just so happen to works, I do not care what anyone thinks about it. You sound like a retard dude. This is not some "life lesson" I cab learn. It worked and I will continue to use it until someone other than a senseless forum idiot tells me I can't. Like the people who collect 100 bucks a month from me..Verizon. Get a life dude..outside the forums.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
You just confirmed what I said, you don't care as long as you get what you want, its not Verizon that acted like they didn't care, it was ONE dumbass that works for them. If they knew their ass from a whole in the ground or actually did their job according to Verizon's policy then they'd shut you down, but you don't care as long as you can slide by with it, right? Exactly. I'll bet if you went somewhere to go shopping and the cashier missed ringing something up and you knew that they missed it you wouldn't say a word and you'd just walk out with a big **** eating grin on your face wouldn't you, you know you would, you wouldn't care as long as you got away with it, and then you'd probably brag about it. That my friend is what I mean, I mean your mindset period in ALL situations, not JUST this one. That's what I'm talking about, you self absorbed piece of ****, just put the shoe on and wear it, it fits you perfect, I wonder how many people you've screwed over with that mindset. That is what I mean by it will come back on you, its got nothing to do with your damn phone, I'm talking about YOU in general. But hey, whatever gets you what you want right? And then you probably lose your mind when you think somebody has screwed you over don't you, and all the while not realizing that you've brought it on yourself, that's okay though, mark my words, thinking like that WILL come back on you in the end even if I weren't here saying anything at all. Everything you've said just proves that you have no sense morality, at least not on the inside, but you probably do a good job of faking it on the outside. I wonder how many things you've done because you know you can get away with it, keep answering, you just keep showing that its the truth. Go ahead, cuss me out, call me a dumbass, prove me right some more, I'm enjoying it.[emoji4]

I have a life but thanks for the concern though, now go get a conscience, if you had one I would have never had anything to so to begin with, your "I don't give a f**k" mindset is what I've been talking about the whole time, not necessarily what you do with any phone of any kind. Its your motivation behind it, what is inside you, I see it clearly. I wonder how many times you've lied about where you were when your woman asks, or I wonder how many people you've manipulated to get what you want, to be sure you have, I don't even have to know you or meet you to know that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brd912:
Lol who is the one, derailing a thread on a forum claiming to know someone's soul because something they post? That does make you a dumbass my friend. My job as a consumer is to pay for my **** and I did. Their job is to decide what I can do...I can use my phone, so I will. Funny you mentioned the whole cashier thing...I just had a young girl give me 20 bucks back at a McDonald's drive thru because she thought I handed her 2 20's but it was only one. I was only suppose to get back 2.47 but she gave me back 22.47.. I didn't give it back to her, I went in and gave it to her manager. She had an attitude and slurped a slushi while a bag of food sat beside her for 10 minutes. Ended being my food. I waited 10 minutes to get cold food so she could finish her slushi. I wanted to keep it, I was mad...but its not the companies fault she's a horrible employee. So I did the right thing. This is different. People flash phones, clone phones and steal a service cellular providers charge 20 bucks a month for(hotspot)...they all come to forums like these to learn how...what about the whole phase when people were buying phones from other countries to get at&t's unlimited data for 10 bucks since a phone that wasn't there pretty much acted as a basic phone...there were threads everywhere on what phones work and how to get it done. That's what we do here, we get what our carriers will not give us. You're just hell bent on proving someone wrong when in the long run, there is no right or wrong here. I feel the way I feel and you feel the way you feel..neither is a crime. So stop being a troll dude and go flash a ROM or something. This isn't the drama club where you can cry about **** you don't like. I'm not breaking any site rules nor doing anything illegal, so please gtfo
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
Dude, don't you get it, have you put your phone on the network by having your device info entered into the system? No, you haven't. A person can own a car(you owning your phone), make payments on that car and pay for insurance on that car in their name and pay taxes for the use of the highways(you having a verizon account and paying for the service) stick the key in the ignition (you sticking the SIM in your phone) turn the key to see if starts ( you seeing if the SIM would work in your phone) and the car can actually start (the SIM happening to work) and the car run fine (the SIM working in your phone) and drive THAT car without a license (using your phone on the network without it being legitimately activated on the network) and not get pulled over even if they pass a cop (you calling the Verizon agent) and even get away with it (that agent not paying attention) and get back home with no problems (you being able to use the phone with no issues) but they still don't have the right to drive the car because they don't have the license to drive the car (you not having your phones info actually entered in the system) even though they own it all and pay the bills for it (you justifying your usage of your phone just because you pay the bill and own the phone and it just happens to work). Justify yourself all you want, you're still not any more legit than the unlicensed driver would be, regardless of what they own or what they pay. As I said, you don't care as long as it works (them not caring and driving the car anyway because they want to). Running your circle about what you own and what you pay for doesn't change a thing. You're still not legit. A user hotspotting their phone is not even close to the same thing because not only are they paying for the phone and service, they actually have the right to use that phone on the network they are on because the phone is in their name on their account with the service provider and the device is actually activated officially on said network. Two completely different animals. No matter how similar in color. You are missing the specifics, BUT as you said, you don't care right? Give them your IMEI so your phone can be activated on their system and see what REALLY happens as far as you getting service. Talk your **** until you actually do that, otherwise what you think is a moot point. AND THATS JUST ALL THERE IS TO IT AS LONG AS YOU LEAVE IT THE WAY IT IS. Have a good one dude, hopefully they stay stupid and don't zap your SIM, and that's what will happen if somebody that actually cares

about doing their job right sees what your phone is doing on their network.

Hey I've been viewing this thread for quite a few days only to see this going back and forth. I get you both are trying to make your points known but I think this has gone far enough don't you think?

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brd912:
Most definitely. That's why I didn't reply this last time...really don't get why someone would spend so much time bickering because someone got something to work for them. Almost nothing here is by the book so I really don't get it.

Mods can close this...my phone is fine the way it is :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
I kept going because things outside the rules aren't discussed in these forums, any respectable member that respects the rules would have done the same. The only problem here is that YOU are just a PRICK that doesn't care about the rules. Discussions of how to switch networks by any other means than that which is supposed to be followed is not tolerated here, it wouldn't surprise me if the Mods shut this thread down whether you requested them to do so or not. Be glad I'm not the prick you are or you would already be banned if your shady method had been brought to the forum admins attention.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Just like I said nearly a week ago why is this continuing? Seems like the other guy dropped it after I last commented.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brd912:
An yet I'm still here and still using my phone. Report me if you feel the need, but you're also breaking rules by being a troll. I know it sucks to see someone get something you don't want them to have but hey, being a hater is no fun..keep it moving ?????
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
Just goes to show you have no honor. Things like that come with consequences, it'll catch up to you, of that I'm certain.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Really? How about we just let things be and move on. Plenty of people break the rules and some of them do get caught. Does it really make a difference?

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
For those that have enough honor to respect the rules, YES, it does matter. I didn't fight for my country to give anyone the right to get over on ANYONE for ANY reason. Not caring about the rules or what is right or wrong only shows a persons true colors, the works would be a much better place without people like that. Are you trying to show yourself to be one of them, or are you one that just stands on the sidelines not caring what someone else does? That would make you no better than the one you are watching.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I get that you care about this but does arguing on a forum really prove anything? Sometimes the fight isn't worth it. We all break some kind of rules or laws in life at some point

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
I'm standing for what is right, I do it wherever I find it, the one arguing is the one defending the wrongness of their actions. And yes we all have broken rules in our life, what separates that are those that do it KNOWINGLY, not knowing and then doing it is one thing, but KNOWING it and CONTINUING to do it is the difference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
While true continuing the argument/conversation when your the only one still worried about it doesn't make it better. I've learned in life to pick your battles

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
The fact that I'm the only one that cares out of the three of us is the problem.

Others "picking there battles" is what makes people comfortable with the things they do wrong, really dude, no one here can dispute morality, no matter what you try to coat it with.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Ok I get it, you don't give up easily. The point is that it's been long overdue to just end the argument and be done with it. Keeping it going isn't helping either. You've made your point now move on with it

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brd912:
This dude is not going to give up bro and as long as you reply, he will try to make you out to be some horrible person. I didn't break any rules, Verizon just sucks at locking their stuff down. Really no different than unlocking a bootloader they locked down. But this guy won't get it and he won't get that its 100% pointless to carry on over something that doesn't affect him or anyone else for that matter. Verizon isn't losing money, I pay my bill. He's hell bent on being right so let's just let him "be right".
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jaime4272:
to day I stated to have problems with my internet on my SGP621 LTE I'm on T-Mobile and i'm getting the connect me messages basically t-mo want's me to get a separate tablet data plan. I was wondering if there is a work around so that I can use my tablet as a regular phone with data internet access without an additional data plan which I would not pay for. is there a way to make my tablet SPG621 to show as the regular Z3 phone and not as a tablet so that I can use the internet 3G/4G LTE thank you:crying:
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jonathin-ramos:
The only way I could think of is to root your tablet, then ask around in the custom ROMs section for your tablets model for a ROM with phone capabilities.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jaime4272:
I don't know how likely that's going to happen. but what I can say is that this s?cks I was using my tablet as every day phone now no internet or mms just phone calls and text only, I was hoping that maybe an xposed module that any one may know about it would be much appreciated thanks
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jonathin-ramos:
So, your tablet was a Phablet? (An almost tablet-sized phone)
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jaime4272:
well you could say that but now t-mo knows its a tablet and won't let me use the internet. I was wondering I change the IMEI with one of my old phones could it work? and if it could does any one knows of an app that can do just that
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] sandrap:
great job on the thread title! didnt even bother to read what you wanted help with. and YES, I'm just replying to tell you that you should give at least some information when choosing your thread title. :(
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jaime4272:
sorry for the inconvenient but for Me it is a very problematic issue no being able to use the internet. by the way thanks for your help
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] thref23:
I have the same issue right now, and I have a feeling others will continue to report the same. I can still make calls and send text messages, but T-Mo has blocked my data. I get redirected to the 'Connect Me' page, and after I click 'Get Started,' I get sent to a page that has an 'OK' button and unviewable text hidden above it. This is not a tethering redirect, because I cannot access my e-mail nor the Play Store either.

It seems T-Mo will no longer let anyone use the SGP621 as both a voice and data device, we will have to select one or the other?
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jaime4272:
I'm too have the same problem that's why I stated this thread hopping to find a solution to this problem, I don't know if by changing the IMEI will make an effect on the identification of this tablet to a phone/phablet so that it is not recognize as a tablet, my xperia z ultra does work normal that's why I ask, if any body can help us pleas let us know on how and what to do to disguise the tablet as phone/phablet thanks
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] AirBruce:
I haven't run into the same problem (though it doesn't mean I won't). I'm now also wondering who knows a work around to this.

Last I checked, changing the IMEI was not exactly... legal per say. But at this point, eff it. Anyone know how to change the IMEI on the Z3TC?
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jaime4272:
it may not be legal but what t-mo is doing is worst and I know it's wrong but if you use and IMEI from a old phone of yours that you don't use any more I think its ok? right. I just would like that some one can tell us how to do it
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] tysontthompson:
Possible Solution?

I work for T-Mobile and have also have the same issues with my Z3tc I, being a store manager, have limited resources available to me but i plan to submit a ticket in hopes of resolving this issue, it would help if i had multiple issues to report however. If you folks are willing to help me out with this (power in numbers as they say) i think we may have a chance of getting a fix, what i need from each of you is your T-mobile telephone number that you've been using your Z3TC on and i can submit this ticket. Email your name and phone# to tyson.thompson91@t-mobile.com and I'll do my best
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] tysontthompson:
Need more help

I've got about 5-6 people's info so far, if i could get 10 or so i think we could make some headway here. I have tried SIM swaps, tried using a regular z3 for a couple days and switching back, tried rooting and IMEI changing nothing has worked thus far... this seems like the best chance here.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] :
Changing/altering IMEI numbers is illegal in most areas.....and definitely not a topic discussed on XDA.

Thread closed.

So I tried rooting my girlfriends VZW S4. I got booted into Safestrap recovery and tried installing a custom ROM... every rom I had failed. So I just wiped the cache, still didn't work. Now I reboot the phone and im stuck at the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."

Odin will NOT WORK with ANY build I try to flash it. I get that god damn Fail (Auth!) error EVERY TIME.

found a stock one that is actually working.... so far so good
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
The reason why it doesn't work is because you are flashing old firmwares. You can't flash 4.2.2 and 4.3 once you are on 4.4.2. You can only flash 4.4.2.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThoR294:
Now that I am on 4.4.2, is this phone stuck with that? I managed to get safestrap on it, but I still cannot install any custom ROMs on it. Tried partitioning a new piece and installing cyanogen on there, no luck, just bootloops... this is a headache!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joku1981:
No, this is the result of "play" with a SAMSUNG device :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThoR294:
My s3 took 5 min to install cyanogen lol. Womp womp
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
Yes but my guess is your s3 isn't a Verizon version.

ps I don't think CM works on your version. I think you can only flash custom roms that match your kernel.
[Moto 360] Swifty31703:
I purchased a 360 from Best Buy less than a month ago. I updated it to 5.0.1 right out of the box. It has been doing great until 2 days ago. I came home put on the watch. It booted up and was working fine. 30 - 45 min later the screen won't turn on. I thought it just froze so I held the power button for 30sec. Nothing. I tried throwing it on the charger even though it was at 80% last I looked at it. Neither the charging icon or the clock came on the screen while on the charger. I let it sit for awhile anyways. It never did anything even though the charge light came on on the charger. After letting it sit on the charger for 1 1/2 hours I removed to try powering it on. Nothing. I decided to leave it alone for awhile and the next thing I notice is that it is sitting at the bootloader. That is all it would do and only after pulling it off the charger. So today I left the watch on at the bootloader until it died. I put it on the charger and the charging icon appeared on the screen. The watch booted and showed the clock. Once it reached 50% i decided to do a reset just to see if it would fix whatever bug was affecting it. After rebooting I was prompted that I had the 5.0.2 update waiting for me. I charged it to 100%. I ran the update thinking if I am having a software issue, an update would definitely help. I ran the update and it rebooted. Everything seemed to be working fine. I setup it up and strapped it on my wrist. I go to turn on the screen and it wont turn on again. The watch battery was at 96%. I put it on the charger for 30min. When I pulled it off the charger it booted to the bootloader yet again... Is there a fix anyone knows of or do I have a hardware issue?
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] nico_las:
I think that's just an offer. You don't have to do this. As far as i know you can use your SIM in any device you like. And ... Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact can be considered as a big phaplet.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] AirBruce:
I agree with nico_las. I use my SGP621 on T-Mobile USA as well, and it's not mandatory I switch over to a tablet plan. It's just an offer you can refuse.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] thref23:
Is there a way to refuse this offer? Like, my data no longer works as of maybe two hours ago, and I am not the only one reporting this. Can I refuse an offer and retain it? I called 611 but as usual the pre-paid support folk never know anything outside of their scripts...
