[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
Hmm, sounds fishy. Try going back to the TWRP you already had if it worked fine, why the d2tfnvzw is acting funny I couldn't tell you. When you put the SIM in it the ROM should work without having to do anything, dialing *228 and setting APNs is only to get MMS working and only works with the Verizon 4G LTE SIM that I know of.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cory733:
the twrp i had before couldnt install cm correctly for some reason. now that im on cm12 can i still install that twrp?

the rom seems to be working fine, i can still get into everything else without the sim, it just says no sim. With that sim i didnt get service, i got the "welcome to verizon wireless" when trying to make a call. installing apps seems slow.

somehow ive lost root. supersu wont install the binaries either, im gonna try to figure out how to do that with twrp.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
As for your root being gone, its probably not, you've got to go into developer settings and set root access to "apps and adb", do that and verify whether you have root after that, also get ES file explorer and set your mount permissions to R/W

If the SIM is a Verizon SIM it should work.

I recommend flashing the newest OctOS d2vzw CM12 has always been too buggy in my opinion, OctOS is super stable, its the best ROM out if all the d2vzw ROMs. The SIM will probably work with OctOS, myself and hundreds of others have been using it with no issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cory733:
ok cool got root, you were right, the root access setting was set to disabled. the sim is a straight talk CDMA for verizon. its from the bring your own phone sim card kit that has sims for every carrier. i didnt want to try *288 since you said it could ruin it for my Note 2. but another one is on the way theyre $1.07 from walmarts website.

do you have a link for octos? its based off cm12? im also trying to get an app called drivedroid to work since i cant do much with my note 2's useless locked bootloader. google search for OctOs is bringing me to liquidsmooth.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
teamoctos.com ,find the download page and get the newest d2vzw.

I'm not sure that the straight talk SIM will work like the actual Verizon SIM does, in the year that I've been following development on this device I've seen no posts that say the ST BYOP 4G SIM works. I recommend an actual Verizon one, they are only $2-4 on eBay, that's cheaper than the ST SIM and guaranteed to work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cory733:
should i try switching TWRP's before installing this rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
No, try the d2tfnvzw one first
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cory733:
ok im on OctOs now. stayed with the same TWRP d2tfnvzw version. Same thing with the sim. "welcome to verizon wireless, your mobile number is either not active, or invalid" does *228 do anything besides getting mms to work?

edit: the signal bar icon has a ! in it and when i click on it it says Verizon Wireless 2 GB warning
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
It is supposed to auto program the SIM. I'm not sure it will work on the ST SIM, I know it works for the Verizon SIM, don't try it on the ST SIM, I might fry it and make it useless.

Verify you still have IME, has the phone itself been activated on straight talk, your IMEI has to be registered and activated on the straight talk network. Are you showing any signal bars or the 3G symbol?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cory733:
ok ill look for the verizon one too then. if i get the straighttalk sim first i guess ill try it since it was $1 and i already ordered it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
If you are showing signal then the SIM is working, you just haven't activated the phone and added time or had it switched from another device, you gotta do more than just stick the SIM in, the device has to be activated on the network first, then the SIM inserted, I would go back to stock ROM and get the device activated properly then flash the ROM and put the SIM in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cory733:
it shows signal even without the sim. so i wouldnt be activating the sim itself at all? i would activate it by calling straight talk and giving them the imei#? and then after switching back to cm or octos, just put in the sim that straight talk doesnt know im using and dial *228?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
OK, some of the older ROMs would show and receive cell signal without the SIM but wouldn't get data, later on they got to where they had no cell signal or data without the SIM, I guess its a hit or miss deal from ROM to ROM.

The way the rest of us have done is had a stock activated phone then flashed custom and inserted SIM to have everything working, straight talk was not needed in the process to straighten anything out and the SIMs have been used without straight talk ever knowing. You just need to be on stock and verify that the device is actually activated
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cory733:
ok so i flashed the stock rom, called straight talk to transfer my number back to this phone, phone worked fine, flashed twrp, installed the other version of twrp from in twrp, installed cm12, google apps, booted into cm. i realized i forgot to call *22890 to activate with straight talk. idk what this does exactly since the phone worked without doing it but the website told me to and they told me to on the phone. so i tried *22890 on cm, it wouldnt go through at all. i guess this means that you wouldnt be able to give this phone as-is to someone else to activate on their straight talk number. i put in a spare sim card that i had from my byop sim kit. actually it was a nano sim that i made fit by cutting out a little adapter but it fits and seems to work. activation still didnt work. pulled out sim and flashed back to stock. called the activation number and it went through no problem. repeated everything and am now back in cm12. without the sim i get calls and i think texts but thats it. no 3g no data no mms. put in my sim and i get 3g. called *228 and got the verizon activation. had to press 1. i had to press it like 10 times for it them to register my button press. maybe this is a issue with the cm nightly. it said the activation worked. but still no mms. it says "no apn specified on the device" im guessing this is like you said the mms may only work with an actual verizon sim. i ordered one from near by ii should be getting it very soon so ill try again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
OK, now it seems like you have the device working, after dialing to program the SIM you need to edit APNs with straight talk or tracfone or Verizon's APNs then save them and reboot, creating a new set doesn't work, you have to edit an existing one for it to work, look in the "how to root straight talk SCH-S968C" thread here at XDA and you'll see the SIM program and edit APNs method, I can help you through it if you have questions, all you are missing is the APNs and you'll have data and MMS working, you're almost there.

I still suggest using a ROM other than CM12, it works good on the Verizon phone but not so well on ours, it doesn't play well with us, OctOS, Liquidsmooth, and AICP are the most stable, OctOS is rock solid stable in every area, the others have a random reboot issue, including CM12, they are all a bit screwy but OctOS is not, I've been using it since Feb-Mar with no issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
Do what you did to get signal and data working with SIM then go to system settings>mobile networks>Access point names or system settings>more>mobile networks>access point names(depending on your ROM, they don't all have it in the same place in settings), in the APN page that shows the list of APNs select any one of them then click the mebu button and select edit, the edit the lines to match the ones in the screenshot I will provide, after editing the lines to match, click the menu button and select save, the APNs will disappear from the list, this is normal, then reboot and you should have everything working including MMS.

Use either of those but if you use the Verizon set then make sure on the APN type you enter: internet,mms , just like that, no space before or after the comma and all lowercase, the user that posted the Verizon screenshot didn't have that part right
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cory733:
when i go to access point names, nothing is there but it says "access point name settings are not available for this user"

i clicked on the + for new apn. i put the settings you showed me here but when i clicked on save, it just went back to this screen again and says the same thing, access point name settings not available for this user. restarted the phone to test, still nothing

edit: i tried the verizon settings, ill try the other one now

edit again: "mmc field must be 3 digits" the tracfone one is missing mmc info

edit 3: found this

http://apn-settings.com/straight-talk-apn-settings-configuration/

same thing it never appeared after saving
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cory733:
sorry man you posted two replies and i missed this one ill look for that thread
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
Try other ROMs to see if you can get the APNs available, that's a common issue for some, I haven't been able to pin down exactly why some get that and some don't. [MENTION=6342402]Fenix2002[/MENTION] in the rooting thread has some theories about it but I can't remember exactly what he said he thought it was.

You mean MCC don't you? The MCC in the screenshot I gave you is 3 digits, the straight talk/tracfone set doesn't have MCC listed, I've never had to enter an MCC value when using the straight talk/tracfone APNs, the default value in the set I was editing always worked, if MCC is blank and you have to enter it yourself then yes it has to be 3 digits, its 310 for straight talk/tracfone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cory733:
mine is getting the overheating problem seen in that thread. battery drain too im pretty sure, but it is getting very hot on the bottom below the battery. tried turning off 4g like someone said.

i tried octos yesterday, but i couldnt find an option for lock screen settings. i googled it and it looks like its missing that setting. does yours have it?

still looking for a way to get the apn settings to appear in this 100+ page thread but im not seeing it.

forgot to mention before i re flashed back to stock and was still on cm12 before calling *22890, my phone kept dialing an unknown number i kept hanging it up then i let it go and it didnt do anything at all. no message or anything just stopped ringing and was nothing there. after reflashing to stock, activating, and going back to cm12 it didnt do it anymore. was it trying to get apn settings? how do i do it now?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droidriven:
The random dialing seems to happen with new SIMs that have never been activated, its possible that it is lost in the shuffle between deciding to be a Verizon device or a Straight Talk device so its trying to update PRL, that's inconclusive though.

We all seem to get the battery drain and the heating, it can be controlled a good bit with the dkp kernel for d2vzw. Also by using tools that allow you to freeze apps when they aren't open.

I'm not sure what to say about the APNs saying unavailable, I've never had the random dial or ever had the APNs inaccessible in the year that I've used this device, others that have had the APNs unavailable would have issues with them being unavailable then available then unavailable again in a random manner, [MENTION=6342402]Fenix2002[/MENTION] has dug into these little quirks more than any of the rest of us, try sending him a PM and see what he says.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cory733:
ok cool it works now, i tried 3 different cm nightlies and i tried octos again, apn settings still werent there. fenix said the sim needs to be a used deactivated verizon sim so i took the one from my note 2, which is a straight talk sim for verizon lte. straight talk told me yesterday when i transferred my service to my s3 that the sim in my note 2 wouldnt work anymore and i would need a new one when i switch back to it. but i put it in my s3 and all the apn settings were there, they were all verizon ones no tracfone. i just selected the first one and didnt edit anything, restarted and mms is working fine. didnt dial *228 or anything either. thanks for all your help man i hope this thread will be of some use for anyone else still trying to figure this out

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wing_Zero_Custom:
When using most cables if I gently move the connection back and forth the phone will stop and start charging. It's easily reproducible, I have a mono price cable that never gives me issues, the stock cable doesn't either but my other two always do.

Is this common or is my charge port in trouble? I'm worried about selling the phone in a broken state.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingFatty:
Maybe the little moving clips in the cable are worn out and stuck in the down position on those two cables of yours that wiggle?

On a good cable, when you look closely it has the two little prongs that stick up and can move up and down with spring loading. They allow the cable to actively grip itself into the port on the phone. But they wear out, and get stuck down, or lose the spring force, so the cable is just limp and hanging off, ready to fall out easily.

But make sure your phone's port is not damaged or bent out of shape. I doubt this is the case, or none of your cables would work. Because 2 of your cables work, I bet it's just a problem with some cables wearing out.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rogconnect:
Seriously, protect your MicroUSB slimport from wear and tear. You can't just replace your port. The whole motherboard have to replace. Well, after one year of warranty our G4 would have to replace if that port is broken.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wing_Zero_Custom:
I have a case that covers the port, it has been protected since day one but maybe it has fallen on the port while plugged in, my cat knocks it off the night stand from time to time but thats a 2' fall max. Either way 1 year warranty, and the stock cable works flawlessly so I don't think there will be any issues with selling this phone.

As you can see at that guide, you need to put the patched aboot.bin on your external sd (/storage/external_SD/aboot.bin) then run the following commands on your phone's terminal.

su
dd if=/storage/external_SD/aboot.bin of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot

After the su command you've to accept the root request.

Be sure to download and flash the right version of aboot for your phone variant, a wrong version of aboot will brick your phone.

dont know why now... really annoying
[LG Optimus L90] neverdies:
Are you sure that your aboot.bin file is in /storage/external_SD?

You can put the aboot.bin in your internal memory instead, or anywhere else, just change command according to your aboot.bin file location.

Exemple if you put your aboot.bin file in /storage/internal_SD run the following command:

su
dd if=[B]/storage/internal_SD/aboot.bin[/B] of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot
[LG Optimus L90] gjurosi:
finally , it work ... aboot.bin were on external_sd ..but I dont know why the first time it didnt work ... I tryed again and it worked

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] m2chaudh:
Hi, I'm a student and just bought a 2nd hand Galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition from kijiji. I have been using the S Note for school and find it to be really helpful with the stylus and like spen as well. I saw several demonstrations of s note and spen on new Note5 and loved it even more. Is there a way to load the ROM from that to my Tablet 10.1 2014 edition?

Moreover, I've already rooted my Tablet and backed it up using Titanium backup, will this give me some safety net if I do some testing with various roms on this tablet? Which ROM is recommended given that i don't want to loose Samsung's S Note and S Pen, as I extensively use them. Can I retore S Note and S Pen from Titanium backup after putting a modded Lolipop 5.x.x on my Tablet? Currently I'm running 4.4.2 as it came, but I feel it uses up battery life faster then my ipad.

Please help me with this. I'm really really hoping to use this for school. Thanks..:good:
