2016 say ta ta, Bye Bye, Adios, Sayonara, Astala vista

This is the worst phone that Samsung made, and to think that they made Samsung s Duos 2 and 3 too (even worse than worse). it's a shame on us as well. it was heavily priced, and we made it the most selling device back in 2012-2013. just because it had an S series title and 5mp camera. nothing else was good about this. (Now I realize it's not even 5mp, check in antutu benchmark)

200 USD You get octa core devices man, even if it was quad core, dual core atleast, we would have survived, for another year.

2016 is "The End" for this.

We are only using this mobile, to take out with us, so that if it get lost, we don't feel bad about it that much.

We are keeping this mobile, to get rid of our wives and bosses cause the battery drains faster in call than they come to their point where you can't take any of them with you, the battery dies. :good:

People are selling this online as low as 30 USD, in exchange, it's even worse, they are giving 20 USD.

change the subject to farewell s duos, will you. that would be much appropriate.

Thank you

Hello,

I am in South Africa and I can not get data to work. I have validated all settings:

Data Roaming is on.

Cellular Data is on

Preferred Network Type is Global (I have also changed to LTE / GSM / UMTS with no success)

I have removed SIM card / placed back in.

I have reset all network settings

I have placed into Safe Mode

I have called Verizon Global Support and they have validated all settings.

All without success

Android Version - 6.0

Security Patch level - November 1, 2015

Is there anything I am missing? This is frustrating.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chichu_9:
on your phone dialer type *#*#4636#*#* then from the top menu select change band and select USA band and restart your phone.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
Thanks - I forget to mention I did in fact try that previously without success as well.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
Sorry, I did not previously perform the step you out-lined. I thought you were referring to restarting the band.

I just did as you instructed and now the phone is not connecting to the South African networks(previously phone and SMS worked.

Now in the Cellular Network Settings, there is a new option 'System Select' which is selected to 'Automatic' with the other option 'Home only.'

Ideas?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chichu_9:
Did you check you have all the APN's setup in your device? you should see 6 in that list. Verizon Internet APN should be selected.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
With regards to the APN, I only have four:

EHRPD - VZW Roaming CBS

EHRPD - VZW Roaming IMS

LTE - VZW Roaming FOTA

LTE - VZW Roaming Internet

And nothing is selected.

[MENTION=354212]chichu_9[/MENTION]

Can you help? After selecting USA band, phone is no longer connecting to the cellular network...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chichu_9:
Change your band to Band 6. turn off your phone and restart.

As for System select, it should be set to Change CDMA roaming Mode. Preferred network type, set it to Global.

For APN, if nothing is selected then select the one that says, Roaming Internet.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
Tried that and it does not work.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chichu_9:
Sorry added more comments take a look at it. I had a similar issue in Mexico, I made the following changes to make it work. Once you get your network connected, then you can go back and change it to USA band if you want.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
System Select should be 'Automatic?' I tried both 'Automatic and 'Home Only' and the other settings you specified and it is still not connecting.

I also did a factory reset and still not working??

Please help/
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chichu_9:
OK, if none of those are working. Then your best bet is to reflash a radio. You will have to unlock your bootloader, Go to fastboot mode and use the flash all script, to reflash a factory image to your device.

There is a thread in the General help section, that can guide you thru the process. Remember unlocking bootloader will wipe your phone clean.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
So, I'm going down that path, downloaded the 'angler' image for the Nexus 6P, unlocked the bootloader, issue ./flash-all.sh and it comes back(using terminal on mac) and says:

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

Bootloader Version...: angler-02.01

Baseband Version.....: angler-02.15

Serial Number........: xxxxxxx

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

checking product...

FAILED

Device product is 'angler'.

Update requires 'bullhead'.

__

I need to download 'bullhead' then - although it says that is for the Nexus 5x? Feel like something is jacked.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chichu_9:
Something is not right. It should ask you to download Angler not Bullhead. Dont install Bullhead on your device. Do you have the right version of ADB fastboot?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
Yes, I believe I do.

Can you link me to the files just in case?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
I downloaded the new files from here:

Here you go https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/angler-mmb29m-factory-8c31db3f.tgz
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
I'm an idiot. I downloaded 'bullhead' instead of 'angler' from the beginning. Flash is going through now - hopefully this will fix the radio problem. Will report back shortly.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
Restored factory image and still not working. Not connecting.

What should I do?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chichu_9:
What is not working? What is not connecting now? if its only the Data part, then did you go back and re-enable data roaming?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
It's exactly the same as it was after selecting the USA band. Not connecting to any cellular network for voice, sms, or data.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chichu_9:
Ok, What you did just now is bring your phone back to the way it was when they shipped it to you. I am not sure, why it would not work for you. Did you double check all your settings? Enable data roaming, enhanced voice?

Try to toggle to GSM mode and try manually searching for a network
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
So, I tried that. Seems to be some progress as it says 'emergency calls only.' However, when I try and select a network it fails and says try again later, but it does show two choices to select.

Is it because I am trying to registered a new device(after factory reset) outside of the US?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chichu_9:
Did you try both available options?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
Yes
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chichu_9:
Can you check if you have the APN's now?

Here is how it is supposed to look like.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
I only have

EHRPD - VZW Roaming CBS

EHRPD - VZW Roaming IMS

LTE - VZW Roaming FOTA

LTE - VZW Roaming Internet.

I did not go into *#*#4636#*#*

Preferred network type is LTE / GSM / UMTS

Network Operators - show the two and I try each and it does not connect.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
So I spoke with Verizon and it isn't going to work. After the factory data reset the phone can only be activated within the US.

I'm balls out of luck.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smripley:
so, just an update here. I returned back to the US and the phone activated without issue after a factory reset. Now, I am back in Europe and the phone is not connecting to any network. It seems when I selected the 'USA Band' it permanently damaged the phone.

Any ideas?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MoreGone:
Hello,

I am curious if the Verizon Moto X 2104 still works well on T-Mobile. I ask 'still' because I have read around and found some old posts that say the phone works great. I also found similar results about the Verizon G3 but after switching to T-Mobile found that text messages are inconsistent at best, hardly ever send or receive. The best I can figure is radio updates messed it up.

So I am wondering if the Verizon Moto X 2014 still works well on T-Mobile.

Thanks

I flashed 6.0.1 yesterday (because I'm dumb and blindly click the latest versions).

I've tried clearing all data in the Google app, and clearing Now card preferences, and I'm still unable to turn on Now.

Hello my friends.

I wonder why ROM cookers dont include the camera patch that actually work and make your camera usable under low light situations. I will attach the cab so ROM cookers can integrate it in their cooks.

its right, i hope you include it in the next release of TNT Rom.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] famewolf:
These patches are not gonna help get your camera working if it's currently not. These are tweaks to the light levels and despeckling routines for the most part and may not even be required for the "newer" camera versions.

On the other hand, installing them should not hurt anything either.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Rcas:
yes each has its own unique purpose install them all. One is a tmobile driver, one tweaks the speckling and one fiddles with the camera adjustments to help with low light if i remember right. Been a while and i've just been installing them each time so my memory could be faulty

Jut take a photo before applying the patches then patch your device. Take a photo again and compare there is a big difference.

I think I'm not the only one who wanna use Marshmallow on Z2 with LB, and since the Z2 and Z3 are both based on the same platform (shinano), I think it can't be so hard to port it to Z2.

I didn't created this ROM, i am just sharing this ROM itself without making any modifications and source link is provided below. If anybody wants more info then he/she can visit the source link. Thank You !

I'm pleased to announce the CM 13 ROM for the Redmi 2... This ROM is almost pure CyanogenMod 13, with a few minor tweaks/additions. This ROM is about as stable as it gets, and is at the point where it's perfect for use as a daily driver.

CyanogenMod is continuing to update their CM13 sources (usually several times a day), and as they do, there will undoubtedly be additional features added, bringing it up to speed with what's available in CM12.1. In the meantime, however, I've included a few of my personal favorite mods/extra settings, and will be adding a few more when time permits. I'm not going to go crazy with extra features, because [MENTION=2258422]Nick H[/MENTION]as a CM13 build for the Redmi 2 as well, that will eventually include all sorts of extras. I will, however, be working on implementing a few of my own original mods/creations. If there's anything in particular that you'd like to see added, let me know!

Patience.

Instructions

MAKE A BACKUP.

Download the ROM zip and the GApps zip to your device.

Boot to recovery, and do a full wipe (minus your internal and external SD, which are optional). Dirty flashing from a previous version should work, but is not recommended.

Flash the ROM, then flash the GApps.

Once everything has completed and the ROM boots, I recommend not touching it for 5 minutes or so, to let everything "settle", but this is entirely up to you.
