[K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N0he:
Hey guys!

I know there are guides out there on how to get recovery and root on the K3 Note, but I haven't found one with fully working links.

Can someone point me to such a guide, or tell how to do it?

Though I am a noob, I have some experience with rooting and also with SP Flash Tools, so you don't have to explain everything.

Thank you!

EDIT: I already have Lenovo/ADB drivers installed, and Debugging enabled
[K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N0he:
Figured out myself:

1. Enable USB Debugging.

2. Install these drivers (Link from the "[OFFICAL THREAD]".

3. Get and install ADB/Fastboot from here. Open it right away

4. Get a recovery from the "[Index Thread]" and put the "recovery.img" file into the following location: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot".

5. Go back to the these drivers (Link from the "[OFFICAL THREAD]" and look up the ADB/Fastboot commands to run.

With that, you should now have a working recovery. Now use it to flash SuperSu.

Hello,

I just baught a nvidia shield tablet k1, (lolli pop 5.1.1) I want to only root my device and not unlock the bootloader, because unlocking the bootloader will void your warrant for ever.

SO please can someone guide me to a solution to root the device without unlocking the bootloader ?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mithusingh32:
Rooting also voids the warranty (unless things have changed) recently w/ warranties and such.

Here is something that might help: http://xdaforums.com/nvidia-shield/general/root-guide-shield-shield-tablet-root-t2833943

I cant personally say it works or not since I just unlocked bootloader and flashed TWRP once I made sure it was in working order.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abati:
Thnx, as far as I understood rooting will void warranty but if you unroot then you still have your warranty. But with unlocking bootloader there is no way back to gain your warranty ones you unlock the bootloader.

And Towelroot does not support lolli pop 5.1.1 bro
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abati:
guys realy, is there realy no one who can at least explain some bits about this issue ?

Anyone about to help?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goandfight4win:
Hey there,

I got a I9505 that doesn't detect my simcard (if i put it in it still say pls insert simcard like there is none). so my guess was carrierlocked...

It also doesn't ask for an networkunlock code .. so i didn't wanted to buy a code on these websides because i didn't know where to enter the code.

Well I've tried the trick with the *#0011# and it doesn't go into the Service Menu.

The phone is on 5.0.1 could this be the problem ? Is there a way to downgrade?

Or do i have to falsh the modem in any way?

Till now i've just changed the FW with Odin to the DTB Version.

I'm kind of scared to try other things if I'm not sure what they do...

I'm really sorry if the solution is in a thread i havend found or just overlooked :(

thanks for your time and help

:)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
A properly working SIM lock would recognize the presence of the SIM card, and when you unlocked the phone, would prompt you to enter the unlock code. Therefore, a carrier lock is not the source of your problem. Unfortunately, yours is a hardware problem, and based upon your description, it's a motherboard failure, rather than a SIM card tray failure. It cannot be the SIM card tray because a SIM card tray failure would not ask you to insert the SIM. Instead you would have a circle with slash in the notification bar to the right.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goandfight4win:
Thank You for your help,

So in the mean time I successful downgraded to 4.4.2 (cyagogen)(and upgraded again) found a soulution to flash and access the modem so i could do the trick with *#0011#...but it's still not working.

I just don't to belive that its a hardware problem. Is there anyway of another software Simlock?

Because the Network Conectivity bar is showing 3 bars.

I got it (not so) cheap from ebay, so could it be that the imei is block in the network ?

Thanks agian for your help :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
IMEI could definitely be the cause of your problem, especially if you actually do have a signal.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goandfight4win:
It is showing 3bars but not the H for HSDPA but it also shows those bars if no sim is insert so...

The imei ist blocked ?

Guess there is no way to change it :(
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
If no SIM card is inserted you wouldn't have any signal, but a missing SIM card indicator. This behavior confirms to me that you have a hardware problem of some sort. You need to have the device looked at, because software is unlikely to be the source of the problem.

[E 2015 General] chava007:
Here are my steps to switch bands without adb, sharing since I've gotten 2 confirmations it works on other phones:

Switch Sims

switch to settings -> cellular networks

Pull down notifications-> Airplane mode ON

Network App -> GSM / LTE (close app)

switch to settings

verify 4g (I always click on it, still shows CDMA)

NEtwrok app -> Turn on Radio

Settings -> click on CDMA -> Select 4G

Airplane Mode OFF
[E 2015 General] dknlght:
I was a little skeptical when I first read your instruction but this actually works for me as well. Note the trick is to get into the settings ->cellular networks before turning on airplane mode (you can't get into this setting with airplane mode on) then switching back and forth between the network app that was used on the 5.0.2 and the cellular networks.
[E 2015 General] chava007:
Exactly, that's what I was trying to say when I put the instruction to turn on airplane mode from the notifications pulldown. I've tried this in two phones so far and it works 100%. Not sure why people in the other thread are still arguing about adb commands and bands reverting and all that stuff...
[E 2015 General] cell2011:
Did u get LTE out of doing it this way? I have AT&T
[E 2015 General] chava007:
I don't have att but I'm pretty sure this does the same as the other method.
[E 2015 General] sammd301:
This works great...Thanks OP....(for newcomers You MUST download the "Network" (it has a phone icon) from the play store
[E 2015 General] Icedamage:
Tried this as well and works. Even tried it on a phone I reset to factory and its working. Have to repeat the process if the sims are changed but this is a step up in convenience compared to the other method.
[E 2015 General] htx9:
Yep, so far this in the only non-adb method that works for me. Some say disabling VZN apks would make it sticky, but I haven't been able to get that to work.

Does anyone know what the network app does to change the radio settings? Can this be scripted? Why is it able to change the setting when calling the shell commands in a terminal emulator on the phone fails.
[E 2015 General] divineBliss:
For some reason this method did not work for me with 5.1. Please post a Play Store link for the exact Network app you are using if it is not this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mangelow.network

That's the one. I'll try to make a video or something since my steps are not described in the best way. So far from the comments people have been able to somewhat fill the gaps in my explanations :)
[E 2015 General] Ninja515:
Didn't work for me.
[E 2015 General] mj56gt:
Sorry I don't have the phone with me yet. What does the following step mean?

"switch to settings -> cellular networks"

Is it the same step as the following described in the other thread:

Open up the settings app, go to the mobile networks panel, select "Prefered Network Mode" and change it to "4G"

Thanks!
[E 2015 General] chava007:
It means to go to the settings pane "Cellular Networks" no need to do anything there yet, but that option will be disabled once you turn Airplane mode on, so you need to be in that section before that so you can use the task switcher to get there later.
[E 2015 General] divineBliss:
Why can't you just go there again later using Settings->Cellular Networks if there's not need to do anything there now? Yeah, a video would be useful for me. People posting here should specify there OS version: e.g. 5.1 . I know it's in the title, but you don't know what's on people phones.
[E 2015 General] chava007:
Once you activate Airplane Mode, the Cellular Networks option will be disabled.. so you need to keep it active so you can switch to it later. Couple of people in the thread and offline have confirmed this working in 5.1, but yeah it would help if all people with working steps posted their version. Is there a screen capture app that is free?
[E 2015 General] divineBliss:
Volume up + power (at the same time) for screenshot. Do you mean video screen capture? --> https://play.google.com/store/search?q=video capture screen

I've never tried any.
[E 2015 General] mj56gt:
I forgot to pull out the Verizon sim card that came with the phone before performing the unlock steps. Did I ruin the unlock process? If so, can I still unlock the phone somehow?

Also I tried to search 'network' in Google Play, it kept crashing. Why is this?

Thanks!
[E 2015 General] divineBliss:
You need a GSM SIM card in during the OPs process. The method will still work if you have the GSM SIM card.
[E 2015 General] wogeboy:
+1 on the video- Thanks
[E 2015 General] mj56gt:
After being unlocked with the OP's method with a GSM sim card, would the phone still work with another GSM sim card? Thanks
[E 2015 General] chava007:
You have to do the process again, but it would work. Since you don't need the computer it is fairly easy to do so. BTW I still owe you guys the video, I just haven't had a chance.
[E 2015 General] divineBliss:
Do you have to redo the process each time you change to a different SIM card? If you pull out the SIM, power cycle, etc, then put the same SIM card back in, it seems to hold with the ADB method I used.
[E 2015 General] chava007:
Changing sim cards resets gsm for me in both adb and non-adb method. I havent tested removing and reinserting the same Sim, but I would guess it should work. In any case it can be resaet from the phone using my method, so I don't think it's that bad since you don't need a pc around.

[E 2015 General] nismo87:
well, When i try the network app method, at firts time, i has trouble downloading the app, every time when i wrote NET.... the play store closed... the soluction was search the network app through google chrome, get the direct link to download in play store (weird but is true) and only by this, i get download the apk.

Follow the steps to get GSM 4G in verizon moto e was easy, i get 2 moto e and both of them get GSM signal, other advice is, every time you change sim, you need to uninstall the network app and reinstall to get gms signal in other simcard.

Hotspot

I can confirm this method works for getting Verizon branded Moto E working on Lime/Flow network in Jamaica. I consistently get 3G service.

However, I can't get hotspot to work. Am I the only one with this problem? Can anyone help?
[E 2015 General] xtermmin:
The hotspot on the Verizon ROM attempts to contact internal Verizon network servers in order to authenticate the hotspot subscription. Since you're obviously not on the Verizon network, the check will fail. Since the Verizon model does not have root or an unlockable bootloader, you'll have to use a 3rd party tethering app from the Play store.
[E 2015 General] ddvche:
It worked on X1528, Verizon, $9.99 Black Friday prepaid phone, with T-Mobile SIM card, thanks.
[E 2015 General] dm146:
Thanks, for the reply.

I diabled the Verizon hotspot and used the hotspot settings in the ROM. Perhaps I should disable the Verizon app contacting the Verizon network, but I don't know what that is.

I have tried several 3rd party tethering app, but none work. Can you recommend one?
[E 2015 General] xtermmin:
There's more to it than just the Verizon hotspot and My Verizon app. Verizon builds the check into the native tethering functionality itself. On other Verizon devices, the only way around this check requires root, which the Verizon Moto E2 doesn't have yet. Now you know why Verizon devices are so cheap: they neuter a ton of functionality.

As for 3rd party tethering apps, I haven't tried any personally (my Verizon Moto E2 is just a backup phone), but I believe that FoxFi works in USB mode without root. Due to Moto system protections, Wifi mode doesn't work, though.
[E 2015 General] dm146:
Changing SIMs

The system works for me as well as I could expect, so I am afraid to change SIMs and mess it up, but I take it that you have successfully changed SIMs. Was this on the same network or a different network?
[E 2015 General] Icedamage:
I used sims from 3 different networks, worked each time. Just have to repeat the process each time they are changed. The sims I used to test this out were from AT&T, Tmobile, and a Movistar sim from Mexico.
[E 2015 General] hydeah:
Do these instructions apply to US Cellular branded Moto E (2nd Gen) ? I tried the ADB method, I was able to get Data to work, but I don't get voice.

I don't have GSM/LTE option in Networks app or Cellular Networks dropdown menu even after activating these:

pm clear com.android.providers.telephony

settings put global preferred_network_mode 9

settings put global preferred_network_mode1 9

settings put global preferred_network_mode2 9

It's in LTE/CDMA auto (PRL) in Network app.

I switched to LTE/GSM auto (PRL) and when I try to make a call it still says "NO SIM or SIM ERROR" I also tried "GSM ONLY" I get the same error when I try to make a call.

My status bar shows LTE with full bars, data is there, but no voice.

Do I have to make any changes to Select Radio Band section?

Edit: What worked for me was combination of Network app and ADB option above.

At first ADB option did not work, I had to go to Network app, change toe LTE/GSM auto (PRL) then run ADB as above, which enabled LTE + Voice on my line, but my Network Options still does not have 4G, it has 2G. However I am getting LTE speeds when I am not on a call. I get at least 29mbps.
