I did the same, flashfire albe s6, rooted, busybox, apn change, advanced settings gsm/umts, lost wifi too, but....

I was able to fix it. There is a wifi fix in one of the earlier posts: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-verizon/general/gogolies-wifi-fixes-t3099951 forgot which one I used. but it all works now:) (on tmobile that is)

Oh, in case you went and downloaded the latest ota from verizon (f*** you very much), like I did, lol, there's a wifi fix for the OC1 bootloader too, for us flashfire people: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952597069

here's the directions, nice and slow

root the phone, I used kingroot, then converted to supersu, then install busybox

then install safestrap, if you can (your bootloader is older than and not including OC1) or (if you went OC1 or newer), then install flashfire, like I did. Only thing is, if you muff something up and only have flashfire and not "real" recovery, other than the stock one, it gets kinda stick fixing it, (you have to odin in the verizon stock full image of OC1 and start over, I think, I forgot).

then I installed albes s6 rom, I think its in the unified or maybe att s4 section. its easy to find. Its prerooted, so I just updated busybox and then re-installed flashfire. when you install albes make sure you do a full wipe and flash the oc1 bootloader after the albe rom, in flashfire, that's the only way it'll boot.

ok, so you got albes, now you need to change the apn. I use idoneapp gt 3.8. The guy doesnt give it away for free anymore, and I don't blame him, I was just lucky enough to grab 3.5 (which you need to install 3.8) and 3.8 before he decided to charge for it. Its for the sprint s4, but it allows you to do alot of stuff, even on the verizon variety (lol). You can change the apn, allow wifi tethering, get into the advanced menu to change the radios (gsm, cdma, wcdma, lte, etc) (or you can dial *#*#4636#*#* - sometimes doesnt work though. There are other apps on the playstore to change the apn too, so change it after you do all that other stuff. make sure you have the mmsc and everything else correct for tmobile. I have mine set on lte, gsm, cdma, which seems to work for everything, voice, data, mms. Anyway, good luck and have fun! If it doesn't work, oh well, I bought mine for $13. I also have 3 other s4s, a sprint l720t, the cricket one, and the 970 us cellular. I cant get the cricket or the us cellular to take the tmobile sim, even though I flashed the radios to gsm and the roms to tmobile (pain in the a**), but I think those, although they do have the radios, don't have something else hardware wise to allow gsm, since they are both exclusively cdma. I found the sprint one, paid $10 for the cricket, and $22 for the us cellular (it was brand new though). I get lucky on ebay, people think their phones don't work and they do. I've take all of them apart many times, and most times they just need the usb,mic ribbon cable, which I can get on ebay for $1.89 (there's 2 versions though). Late

I just attach a photo to the outbound text as a work around for now. U simply reply as usual if the sender sends a pic or mms also, business as usual. However it makes a separate thread listing both party names
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] c0olj:
Here's the fix

I just randomly came across this thread. I switched to metro PCS and since its on T-mobile tower I had the same issue. I found a fix, but It knocks you off of 4GLTE (You get H+ instead)

You just need to change your preferred network type to GSM/CDMA auto (PRL).

------------------------------------------------------

Make sure your phone is rooted

Download Advanced Signal Status from the play store

Scroll all the way down to a button named ADDITIONAL INFO (Press it)

Press Phone info

Above "TURN OFF RADIO" There is a scroll down menu to bring up a menu of all the different network types.

Find GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) and select it, wait up to 3 mins.

and there ya go you can now send normal texts the only downside is no 4g :confused: but you can always go back and forth if you want to :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ktfinzer:
This may or may not be helpful but I'll throw it out there for what it's worth - I'm in Central America running the i545 on a local GSM carrier here. I switched the network mode to global and or in the carrier's APN settings and everything worked fine.

Since I rely heavily on web based messaging it was a while until I noticed that I could receive MMS but could not send them.

After messing around for a while I figured out that as long as the country code was NOT in the phone number I could send text messages just fine.

The problem I run into is that I always put in the country code when entering a contact as I use WhatsApp a lot and if the country code is not in the contacts number they won't show up in the WhatsApp contacts. (This may not be the case in the states)

As of right now I just stick to manually punching in the number without the country code when I want to text someone via MMS (which isn't very often, thankfully) I have not been able to figure out what causes the issue here.

If this sheds some light on the situation or if someone would have since insights for me I would love to hear about them.

he said after installing the .cab files on the device and reboot he asked to turn off the radio module on the device, can someone please tell me how I can do this, may be this is why I am getting errors like "\windows\timewizard.exe" says cannot execute and I am also unable to access my contact on the phone.

please advise/help, also any other ideas would be helpfull from anyone.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] worldita:
Hi

Newbie here. We bought a kindle which turnout to be blacklisted so we can't register it. Obviously it is useless as we can only use internet.

My kindle was running on latest firmware which meant I couldn't root it. Thanks to one of you xda geniuses. I was able to rollback to firmware 13.3.2.8

I change oat filed to avoid upgrades. I installed es explorer.

I then rooted my kindle and did root checked which confirms it is rooted on Kfthwi android 4.2.2

I installed su super user. Seems to work fine

After that I tried to install boot loader fireflash but it keeps stopping

I finally managed to install and launch Rashr but when I boot recovery with twrp or any other files my kindle boots and stops saying can't boot and offers me to do factory reset or starts again as if nothing happened. I haven't chosen factory reset as I don't think this will help.

I have added su super users to system hoping this would help but no success.

I have also tried loads of kfu from pc but although adb is ok it says boot status unknown and fails every time as if it can't find the path or something...

I have ran out of ideas. I don't know what to do anymore

My aim is to install cm12 or other versions... anything to make this kindle become android

Please help me!

Thanks

Sorry - will not provide assistance for a blacklisted device. Read the forums.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] worldita:
Hi I am sorry I misunderstood the terms. It is NOT blacklisted. It is unregistered.

We have called Amazon and it does not belong to anyone. We don't know how it happened we bought it second hand. The tablet is not letting registered but it is not blacklisted. Can you still help ?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cl4ncy:
You can NOT unlock the bootloader, use TWRP and CM12 anyway. You'd need 3.2.3.2 or lower for that, and you can NOT downgrade below 3.2.8.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] worldita:
Ok thanks for replying to me and for the info. So no more hope? I should just bin it?

So sad.... was supposed to be for my kids.

I guess this shows you really can't buy these tablets second hand!

Thanks again for your time.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
You likely toasted the device by installing stuff that is not valid for a HDX.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] worldita:
Wow Davey126 thank you so much for all your positive feedback.

So helpful
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Sorry for the prickly response. Reacting to: 1) device that will not register which is a bright red flag waving; and 2) installing fireflash which is for a different model and likely destroyed your device. You can not install twrp on a HDX that has been upgraded past 3.2.6 and you can not rollback to any version below 3.2.8 from any version above 3.2.6. A little reading would have quickly revealed the sensitivity of HDX models to 'hacks' other than the limited suite described in the forums. Your device joins countless others in the tower of bricks created by owners failing to research proper procedures.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thomast5:
Hi,

Possibly a weird question but I am very confused. I purchased a phone on Amazon.ca

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00U8KSUIG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

I was supposed to get the G920F however on the box it reads G9208. Also under my settings it reads G9208. So I am assuming this is the model I have.

However when I look online I see that the G9208 should have a dual SIM slot however this phone certainly does not have that. So I am slightly confused, any help with confirming what model I have would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Trent

I'm unable to replicate that so the log would definitely be great.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Moody66:
Not really what you wanted. But I will get it in the morning. Lol having to jump back and forth with some stuff. This should get you something to look at.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Moody66:
I will swap to your gapps package. And reinstall.

I managed to get chrome going. Accessing web is a no go. Bookmarks or manually typing aa URL and it just sits. Keeps crashing through touch activities. Initial setup of the phone crashes as well. Clicking OK and it doesn't reappear.

I'm gonna see if I replicate that on today's build. As of now, it's compiling, but should be finished and uploaded within the next 10-15 minutes.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] thenameisnigel:
Also: Due to overall lack of interest, I'm moving this from nightly to weekly starting next Wednesday, and then probably semi-weekly. That way it would be easier to focus my attention to other projects and it frees up a ton of resources. Also, change logs are now going to be posted every Wednesday as well in post #3, not too long after the newest build is posted.

Yeah, there's not a lot of people with this phone. I think the people that do have this phone but aren't on here are most likely the ones that give no cares about flashing things.

So far. How would you rank the three available ROMs (as they stand) for those who would like to flash one of them ?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Moody66:
This is the only one to be updated so far. And it is much improved. Battery is much better and everything works. UI is smooth and quick. Faster than stock by far. They must have pulled the newest additions from Matt's guthub. No cell problems at all. Battery life seems close to stock. Haven't had a chance to verify exact life. But I am not running and wqkeloxk blockers or limiters. Am at 90% and screen has been on 1.2 hours. But I have been uodqting from play store and redownloading apps. Setting up screen etc. Will post again later with screen shots.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] medwatt:
That's excellent news !! Why wouldn't you do a screen cast of the ROM ? No need for a voice over or anything. Just record the screen while showing off the ROM features, what works etc . . . Please do that.

Thanks for all the help I got the pac rom installed fine. I had the gapps file in the same folder but in twrp the gapps file just isn't there to install. It's there but I don't see it when I want to install. Some simple fix I'm sure but I'm at a loss. Finally give up and went to bed last night. Any ideas? I've searched the internet and these forums and haven't seen it.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] MikeyLee:
Try just moving the gapps to the root of the external storage rather than having it in a folder and see if it shows up in TWRP. I've never seen this happen.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] superbass311:
I always put everything in the root folder of my sd card
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] thenameisnigel:
New build will be released by 7:30PM EST. Newest build requires that you have updated to at least B322. Updating to B322 will cause loss of data. If you want to keep your data, make a nandroid backup BEFORE you update to B322.

If you have not updated to B322, you can do so HERE. Install stock recovery, and reboot into OTA update mode using the three-finger salute. Update to B322 and re-install twrp-2.8.7.0-mt2L.img. Once it's installed, you can install PAC_MT2_20150909 and Google Apps normally.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] ginag:
ok did that didn't work. was thinking of maybe getting gapps apk and installing that way
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Moody66:
Are you telling twrp which location. There is no way it isn't seeing gapps if you are downloading the gapps zip to the same place the ROM is in. Just isn't possible. They have to be in ZIP format..
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] ginag:
well I was just working on getting back to stock and up to b322 now. Yes the file was in the same folder and I also moved it to the root and didn't work either
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Moody66:
If it is in the same folder as the ROM and in zip format it has to see it..... Check your naming or redownload a different gapps. Its not possible for it to be invisible to twrp.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] thenameisnigel:
Update: Not 7:30PM, but maybe 8:15PM. Build is ending now, just signing.

8:15PM exactly and we're live.

[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Moody66:
True. Not sure why. SHM speculated it had to be to have a standard starting point. Easy enough guys. Just boot twrp and make a backup of your 322. If you want to go back to stock just restore it from twrp. Problem solved.

If this is not built from stock it doesn't make sense that we would have to be on 322. L is L

[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] superbass311:
No [MENTION=2764219]MikeyLee[/MENTION] I think you misunderstood my issue. I have been on B309 and flash PAC ROM from there. I have never update another stock Huawei build. Going forward no one will have this issue because they will all be on B322 and B309 will/is no more. I was just an early bird on the ROM that needs to do what I need to do to get on the next build. No one in the future will have B309. They will all be coming from B322 or later.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Moody66:
The source is built from 322.

Its ok. I already reflashed B321 recovery and copying HUAWEI MT2-L03C00B322 (Android 5.1 with EMUI 3.1) to my SD Card now. If all goes well Ill be back on PAC within 45 mins.. heheh
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] MikeyLee:
I was on 309 before CM. Flashing the update from today fails. So what I read was I have to go back to 309, update to 322 then flash this again. Correct?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] superbass311:
yes I'm doing it now

do this..

download this:

and copy that to your adb folder. flash that "fastboot flash recovery c:\adb\xxxx.img

then copy this to your SD card on your phone

boot into recovery and install the update

then reflash twrp and PAC..

thats what I'm doing now..
