[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phil001:
Morning all

We have an issue with my wife's S6(UK, stock up to date software, EE network)

A day ago if she tried to make a call and she just got a message stating 'Not registered on network. She's not getting any incoming calls or text messages either. And not able to use mobile data (wi-fi ok)

Tried all of the normal things, restarts, manually selecting network etc. The only thing that solves the issue is to select 2G only in the network settings, then calls and texts are ok, but obviously mobile data is non existent.

We have been though the troubleshooting with EE on the phone, part of this was to try another SIM which did not solve it, so we know the problem is with the phone.

Also done full factory reset last night, did not help at all.

Any ideas apart from sending it for repair, as EE are telling us?

Not wanting to root or modify in any way that is going to void warranty

Thanks in advance

Do you recommend I go back to stock via samsung-updates id=SGH-I337M (selecting Galaxy S 4 (Canada)	SGH-I337M	FMC	I337MVLUGOH1	Android	5.0.1	24.08.2015	4508315)

Flash back to stock 4.4.2, flash 4.2.2 modem, root, run regionlockaway, reflash stock 4.4.2, enjoy your sim unlocked phone. This may help: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68889708&postcount=120

Btw, remove the imei from your post.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roms4eva:
Thanks, I am currently doing as you have stated.

You also mentioned that I should install the regional unlock app. Will your method as well allow me to have my SIM unlocked? I am trying to use another carrier in another country (Saint Martin) and I am asked for my SIM unlock code.

Will I be able to use other Roms after this or am I stuck with 4.4.2 when I reflash?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HIS YB:
Yes it's a sim unlock method and you can use other roms as well
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I used the method [MENTION=4673498]audit13[/MENTION] described and unlocked my device without trouble. My device is an I9505 and ran on Straight Talk in the US, so you should have no problem with using the device as you wish. Once you get the device unlocked, you can run any ROM you want. In my case I run AOSP 7.1.1 without trouble.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roms4eva:
Hi,

So I did everything you mentioned above. Should I consider my device Stock and unrooted but with SIM unlock? Am I free to install ROMS now?

When I boot up, it asks for my SIM network unlock PIN, as well it says I have an "Invalid SIM card (network locked SIM card inserted)". - should I try the *#0011# method? I have access to ServiceMode now it seems!

I have followed through w/ your instructions... is everything set now? The SIM card is from the Caribbeans and I will not know if it actually works until I arrive there on Jan 2 for schooling.

Android version: 4.4.2

Baseband version: i337MLUFNE1

Kernel Version: 3.4.0-1529758

Build number: KOT49H.I337MVLUFNE1
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
If you followed the instructions, you should not be prompted for a network unlock code. Are you prompted to enter a SIM pin or network pin?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roms4eva:
I am asked for the SIM network unlock PIN.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Did you add a security pin to the SIM card? Did you try different SIM cards?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roms4eva:
Hi, when I go to the sim card app, there is a thing called "Secure Pass" on it. The carrier is CHIPPIE. I will try a newer sim card today.

Yes, it should be. After flashing the modem, wi-fi and cell service won't work.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roms4eva:
Hi, could you link me the 4.2.2 modem?

I am using this zip file found here (and flashed it via CWM on the 1st time i tried it) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2318233 and when i try to flash just the modem.bin via odin CP (1st time and now), it stays on the file analysis step and nothing happens. (I also restarted my phone and laptop). I know Odin works b/c i flashed the rom and twrp with it.

I think that may be the wrong one because upon cross checking with this link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2324667 , it seems like the 1st link is for puerto rico, not canada as it claimed.

Also, the download links on the 2nd link are not working... :(
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
You need to use the modem I linked. Puerto Rico and Canada have the same s4.

Onwards to the next steps!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roms4eva:
IT WORKED!! I LOVE U I LOVE U I LOVE U!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I believe the culprit was my use of CWM to install the modem (in my 1st attempt) that I had found online. (and this time I also did factory reset via standard recovery (hold UP+power) after I flashed the 4.4.2 stock.

Do I have to reflash 4.4.2? (I just finished the regionlock away step). Or can I just flash the new ROM i wanna try out, the Nougat ROM?

Also, it seems that when I flash the stock version, my recovery disappears.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Congratulations on your success.

At a minimum, reflash the stock 4.4.2 ROM to ensure that the old 4.2.2 modem get replaced by the 4.4.2 modem.

I recommend flashing the latest stock 5.01 ROM to ensure that the modem and bootloader are up to date as some newer custom ROMs require a up-to-date bootloader.

Flashing a stock ROM via Odin will always replace TWRP.

[Device Reviews and Information] mukulsoni:
hey guys....... whats up!!!! this is Mukulsoni... I am back with Xiaomi Mi band 2 detailed review. Xiaomi Mi Band 2 is the affordable and the latest smart fitness band available in the market in just US $ 35. Watch out the Unboxing, Device and App detailed review video below and post your comments here:

[YOUTUBE]ZfH3o43hAvg[/YOUTUBE]

In a brief review

​

Mi Band 2 Box : it comes in a small box with Mi logo printed on the top and at the back a small description of the device with barcode printed.

Inside the Mi Band 2 Box

​

a Mi Band 2 capsule is inside a packed strip, an ultra soft strap which is pleasant for the skin, a small USB cable for charging and a user manual for which you need to have mandarin language reading skill.

Looks and Specification of the Mi Band 2

​

The Mi Band 2 looks much better, thanks to the 0.42 inch OLED screen which is also UV coated, scratch resistant and anti-fingerprint. The screen is completely black and the button also goes well with the blackish look. It has a touch pad button... just touch it to show the current time, steps taken, distance, calories burnt, heart rate and battery status.

the wrist strap is made of TPSiV material and anti allergic to skin. it's nicely fit on your wrist and the push lock is make sure to not fall off from your hand.

The bottom of the Mi Band 2 has the new optical HR sensor, while the charging pins are at one of the bottom side. The Mi Band 2 capsule fits snugly into the band and never pops out while wearing it. It looks ultra smooth and soft with excellent built quality.

Xiaomi's Mi Band 2 is dust and IP 67 water proof, so you won't have to worry about anything. And if smudged, you can easily wash with water.

​

The Mi Fit app is your place for tracking your activity - sleep, step count, heart-rate data. Here you can check your weekly and monthly progress, share achievements with Mi your friends or social networks, Calls, SMS and Apps Notifications as well as set new goals. The battery backup of Xiaomi Mi Band 2 lasted upto 20-25 days approximately on a single charge which is quite impressive.

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floor66:
So, the other day my phone started acting weird. It randomly restarted, then worked another hour or so, and then started shutting down almost immediately after booting. I was running a Nexus 5X with rooted stock Android 7.0.0 (SuperSU root) and ElementalX kernel. It had been running this for a few months without any issues. I can't think of anything I did to trigger this. I didn't run any updates, I haven't flashed anything since I installed ElementalX couple months ago.

After a lot of troubleshooting (at first I could still get into the bootloader and recovery, but when I did, TWRP didn't recognize any partitions? I was unable to access the file system in TWRP), it finally got so bad that my phone is no longer recognized by my laptop other than "QHSUSB_BULK" device in the Device Manager (Windows 10 x64). Completely black screen, no response, no LED when plugging in adapter. One time I managed to get into the bootloader (randomly, no idea what triggered it) and I managed to put stock 7.1.1 on it, but soon after the installation of that, the exact same thing happened: random reboots, progressively getting worse to in the end: no recovery, no bootloader, only recognized as "QHSUSB_BULK". So I was back to the lowest point.

I read about a "hidden second bootloader" on the 5X, that would be accessable through Power+Both Volume keys, but that doesn't work at all for me (tried it for up to 1 minute of pressing).

After hours of searching (I probably read all the 5X + other phones's topics here that have this issue..), I came here: www.droidsavvy.com/unbrick-qualcomm-mobiles/

I followed those steps precisely, got my laptop to recognize the phone as 'Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008' by installing the Qualcomm drivers with driver signature verification turned off, but I just couldn't get the QFIL program to flash anything to my phone. It threw a "Download Fail:Sahara FailSahara Fail" saying it couldn't send the Flashing program to my phone. I tried several things here: attempted to power off the phone, then hold Volume up+plug in USB --> flash straight away, different driver/software versions, different laptop, but all to no avail.

I have no real way of telling whether the phone is on or off (it seems impossible to actually turn it off - if I hold power for 30 or so secs I do hear the USB disconnect-connect sound from my laptop, but the device is still shown as "QHSUSB_BULK" so it won't actually turn off properly).

My current hypothesis: it's a hardware fault (eMMC?) and as I'm still within warranty I can send it in for repair/replacement.

Perhaps there is a very slight chance that someone has also encountered this, and it's still a software problem which can be helped by me in some way?

Thanks in advance!

Hello Guys,

actually i am a total noob at this because i had not much time to get in the topic.

So i want to Update my Device because its showing me the Update aviable massage.

I have:

ROM: Stock@32.2A.0.305

Recovery: TWRP Installed

Kernel: Androplusv40

Bootloader: Unlocked

Can anybody give me advise how i can update to the newest stock rom?

I guess their is no .zip to flash in recovery? I want to keep my recovery and root if that is possible.

Thanky you!

Greetings Abgeloust.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
You cant keep recovery or root through an upgrade but it shouldent be too hard to re-root

You can use flashtool to flash a newer FTF without data loss and then you can also use flashtool to flash a elf or img kernel (usually has recovery included with xperias)

If ye need some more explaining then let me know :D

I am sorry for making you trouble :x
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
you can open something called xperifirm via flashtool (if you have a newer version) it should be a little XF icon somewhere along the tool bar

once that is open you can pick your device from the list on the left and then click check all at the top right, to download your FTF you click a version from a country/region and then click on the right where it says avaliable firmware ON a avaliable firmware, from there you can download and will be automatically added to Flashtool when finished.

[Android General] ZazOufUmI:
Thanks for this tutorial.

I've followed all the step, I'm able to flash the new recovery from the TWRP website but then I do a

fastboot reboot-bootloader

but the device reboot normally, just with a warning message during boot saying something like "This device is unlock and can't be trusted, it will boot in 5 seconds".

So I'm unable to access TWRP recovery, I guess when the device reboot it override the recovery partition because if I do a

adb reboot recovery

I end up in the Android recovery not TWRP.

Any idea ?

Thanks
[Android General] zrfl:
Sorry, I have done this a long time ago and don't know what could be wrong:

You have the correct message, so unlock was successfull

You try to reboot in fastboot, so you flashed TWRP correctly in fastboot-mode

And I don't have the device at hand to try it myself. But I do have a few suggestions, what you could try:

Don't try to shorten procedure with unlock and flashing of TWRP at once. I'm not sure, but I think I had problems when I tried this. So do a normal reboot after unlock, before booting again into fastboot and flashing TWRP. (Now you have done this already :) )

I don't remember the proper boot command after flashing of TWRP. But

fastboot reboot-bootloader

doesn't make sense: You are already in bootloader.

Is there a boot-option in the bootloader where you could choose recovery?

Otherwise better power off and use the key-combination for booting into recovery: VolumeUp+Power.

I think, you have to repeat the procedure, as recovery seems to be overwritten: Boot into fastboot, flash TWRP, reboot into recovery. And avoid normal booting before first boot into TWRP!

Did you use the newest TWRP 3.1.0 from March 8th? I haven't tried this yet, so there could be the problem. You could try the previous one: 3.0.2 from last year.

Hi [MENTION=7940531]zrfl[/MENTION]

Thanks for your posting!

I did as you suggested and successfully unlocked bootloader and installed TWRP 3.1.1. Your hint to modify the boot-verified was extremely helpful, as I wouldn't be able to unlock the bootloader otherwise.

However, I did not manage to install super su. And boy, I tried many different versions od regular/system/systemless supersu, each flashed according to the respective how-to.

I ended up either in a bootloop, or get stuck on the Android logo at boot.

Flashing goes well until this step:

"Decompressing ramdisk

--- Failure, aborting"

I checked ramdisk compression of boot with Carliv image Kitchen and it tells me that it already is set to "gz" and not another compression TWRP can't handle.

Please help me on how to flash SuperSu.

Thanks and best

Tom
