[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
I've never actually done it myself. But I've seen plenty of folks on XDA do it. You give the vendor your IMEI and they get the SIM unlock code from the same database the carrier does. It shouldn't cause any issues, since I believe they are generating the code the same way AT&T does, just they are willing to do it for a fee when AT&T won't. At least that is my understanding.

Once you insert a non-AT&T SIM into the phone, it will ask you for the code and you enter it. That should be it. Note that you can't enter the code unless you have a non-AT&T SIM (that goes the same if you got the code from AT&T). So maybe borrow a SIM from someone who is on T-Mob, to make sure it works before your trip.

I just did a search for "M8 SIM unlock" on eBay and got results for around $3. Use your discretion of course; and select a vendor with a good rating. I've seen some instances where they can't find the IMEI in their database. But most of the vendors won't charge if that is the case (but I'd verify that is the policy before giving them your money).

Also in the past, I've read several folks on XDA recommend cellunlocker.net. But again I haven't used them personally; just passing on second-hand knowledge.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rocciamax:
Hi all.

I have this S4, screen broken, no digitizer, USB debug not enabled and can't mount with MTP for unknown reasons. The owner asked me to retrieve some saved stuff.

Ok, I installed CWM recovery via Heimdall and plugged in the usb, but can't connect to it with adb:

$ adb devices
List of devices attached
(none)

I believe CWM is running just fine, 'cause if I push vol- and then power it goes in sideload mode, and then ADB can see it:

$ adb devices

...but obviously, with the device in sideload mode, i can't adb pull from it.

Any suggestions?

There are a small amount of phones that have band 12 support through updates. Their respective specifications usually don't include band 12 support, though looking around states band 12 support can be enabled via an update.

Currently, the zenfone 2 states no band 12 support. Is there any way of looking into the phone itself to see if it has band 12 capabilities? Crossing my fingers for this, as this phone is super slick and powerful for an awesome price, and as a T-mobile user, lack of band 12 support is the only thing holding this phone back from purchase. most current band 12 capable phones are either lackluster in features, or too expensive.

i live and travel between stockton, CA; Sacramento, CA; and Tracy, CA. signal is OK for the most part, though in some areas it leaves a bit to be desired. Currently using a Nexus 5. Through the LTE discovery app I know my phone typically picks up band 4. not sure about band 2. There are some indoor areas like buildings that aren't all that great on tmobile in my area. my local best buy for instance instantly drops to low signal the second i step in the store, even though right outside is full bars. driving along the freeway in certain areas deem little to now signal sometimes as well.

I'm not here to complain about my tmobile service. Just trying to ensure future proofing of my phone purchase hoping that band 12 would improve those situations.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unvaluablespace:
If your a legitimate Asus rep, then that is a bummer the lack of band 12 support. I've already been to those pages and checked again. I just wanted to see if band 12 was possibly hidden somehow, as it seemed to be the case with a 2-3 other handsets since theyre only activated via software updates.

Thanks for the replying. :)

I am confused, it looks like the USA version does do Band 12

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unvaluablespace:
Nah man, he/she is just stating those are the frequencies T-Mobile operate on, not frequencies of Zenfone 2 itself. See the link right above it for the zenfone 2 supported band list.

That would be nice though. I've already read several sites stating that it does not support band 12. The point of my post was to find out if there was any way to find out on the device itself (via owners of a Zenfone 2) to see if it was somehow hidden in there. Specs for the Galaxy Avant, Xperia X3, and the ZTE Zmax I don't think initially listed band 12 support in their specs, but now supposedly they will have it enabled via their respective software updates. I was crossing my fingers hoping a similar thing would happen with the Zenfone 2.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealSkier:
Clearly the phone itself supports the 700 freq (Band 17) which is also where Band 12 operates. Does that require a hardware change? I dunno.

US variant of ZE551ML does support Band 12. The LTE Discovery app revealed I was on Band 12 while using the T-Mobile service in Rancho Cucamonga, California. Going east from there, I was on Band 4 or 2, but then again, T-Mobile's rollout is just starting in Southern California.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealSkier:
That's really interesting Armchair. Band 12 is NOT listed anywhere in Asus' specs. I wonder if the latest OTA update kicked it in? Do you know what firmware you're running? B12 support is the only thing holding me back from the Zfone.

When I bought the phone from Amazon on June 25, 2015, Band 12 was listed in the US spec. Otherwise I would not have bought it at all because I wanted that availability. Now that I go back to the Amazon product page to get a screenshot, I see the entry has been altered to remove Band 12. However, today I'll make a trip to Rancho Cucamonga (not far from me, really), and screenshot the LTE Discovery screen when it shows the phone connecting to Band 12. (Pics or GTFO, right? ;) )

Other notes of reference: When the phone arrived, the firmware was WW 2.18.40.12. I OTA updated to 2.19.40.18 then rooted (using Method 3) and unlocked the bootloader. Did not remove any system apps nor install any custom recovery. I have OTA updated twice since then, keeping root and unlocked bootloader. Currently at WW 2.19.40.22, under which I can connect to Band 12 towers. Did not tinker with the telephony settings or make any other unauthorized changes other than rooting and unlocking the bootloader.

Thank you for contacting ASUS Customer Loyalty. Currently there is no support for this band and no confirmation if it will be added in the future.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmchairWizard:
On .90 I was able to connect to B12 in the same spot as before as well as other locations around Rancho Cucamonga but I didn't take a screenshot of the LTE Discovery app for proof as a few threads here and in other forums have made it clear that T-Mobile will not support B12 on non-branded (read: noncustomized firmware) phones. Since then, the display has developed the infamous lines and fading issues as recorded by others and I have RMA'd the phone. Using a branded burner phone until all is resolved.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ziddey:
Just replying again. I can't remember off the top of my head if band 13 (or was it 17?) is a subset of band 12. If so, maybe your band 12 is in that subset?

I never got signal in my apartment before (basement floor). Just got a Nexus 6 and hello band 12.

Bummer

edit: ok got unlazy and looked it up. 17 is a subset of 12. 13 is just above 12.

Perhaps your band 12 TMO is actually running in the band 17 subset frequency, which the zf2 supports (b12 is 699-716/729-746 vs b17 is 704-16/734-746).
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealSkier:
Probably. TMO appears to have not released the data that would allow LTE Discovery to really know if it was actually connected to

Band 12.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomg09:
So, does anyone know the answer to the previously asked question? Clearly the phone has support for some 700MHz bands...just not the US variety. Anyone know the difference? I mean, the hardware capable of receiving signals on a 700Mhz band exists on the phone. 700MHz is the same in Asia, US, UK, Europe, etc. So, it's a software limitation? Anyone knowledgeable on this subject?

EDIT: Looks like the ZF2 has the Intel XMM7260. Any chance of finding other devices with this modem and band 12 support and bringing code over? Probably would have to be x86_64 processor too, and I think those are rare. I'll have to do some more digging.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hollywoodfrodo:
After combing through countless forums and threads on here, it's become apparent that updating to a custom ROM while generally being a good thing still comes with potential problems. On the other hand, I don't really wanna keep my Note on the super old JB ROM that Sammy decided to leave us stuck with.

From all my reading, what I've gathered is that since the N8010 is almost exactly the same as the N8013, you can ALMOST update the N8013 to the N8010 4.4.2 directly but that there are a few fixes that might be need to be flashed to get it perfected, but once those are done everything should work pretty much flawlessly. I'll still be on touchwiz and pretty much just have a Note 10.1 running the KitKat version of software.

I did read (a LOT) in the 3-4 most popular custom ROM forums and it seems that the custom ROMs per usual all have their little kinks... So yes, you get a lot of bonuses like optimized RAM and processing or removal of Touchwiz etc BUT you might have to deal with bugs and odd issues here and there.

For my purposes I'm fine with Stock Samsung Software - just would like the improvements and optimizations of KitKat. That being the case......

QUESTION 1 - Is all of the above correct?

QUESTION 2 - Anyone specifically on a N8013 have awesome bug-free experiences with flashing stock 4.4.2 from N8010

QUESTION 3 - For going from N8013 JB Stock ROM to N8010 KK Stock ROM - What was your process? (I seem to find only threads detailing custom ROMs here - can't find one w/specific instructions on how to update directly to stock 4.4.2 ROM and what to flash/tweak after to make it work the way it should.

QUESTION 4 - Any other tips/thoughts/etc you wanna share.

Hi,

I read the wiki and checked all the threads, I could not see anything which talked about anyone actually doing just a Radio ROM upgrade as the wiki says, which seems to have come from a Hermes page that no one has verified as yet.

So the problem: I find that reception is not great sometimes it shows 1 bar, but if you ring the phone it goes diretly to voicemail.

I was wondering if anyone has tried different radio ROM's and found any to be better then what I am running?

If there is then my next next set questions will be how I do a Radio only upgrade, will I have to do any of the unlocks etc etc.

ROM Version: 1.34.251.1

Radio Stack: 1.38.00.10

I also seen in some threads that people have sent the phone off to HTC and had main board replaced and they seem to report everything is ok after this, can anyone confirm that ?

I got the phone from ebay, but it is still under 1 year of manufacturer warranty, will I still be able to sent it off?
