[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feretio:
Hi donc113,

Thanks for the reply.

After powering off, I removed the rear cover & battery and made sure all 12 screws were nice and snug but not overtightened. I also loosened and retightened the one next to the SD card slot since some diagrams indicate the wifi antennas are located there. As an aside, do you know what the "L" and "R" labels are next to round buttons on either side of the SD card? I haven't found any documentation on that yet.

Unfortunately, it didn't help. The SSID shows with a strong signal but still won't connect. This might be the issue, though, because the 5GHz SSID drops to no signal every now and then but that's inconsistent.

I'll try to figure out to use logcat to see if I can find an error but let me know if you or anyone else can think of other things to try.

Thanks!

-Jeff

No idea on the buttons, on mine there are are just brown 'fillers' in them.

---------- Post added at 03:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 AM ----------

Ok.. Found the info on the buttons, they are covers for connectors, i presume for testing purposes.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pompeia:
Mine recently had the issue as well (I have an Archer TP-Link C5). After testing wifi and seeing I still used the 5G at work, hard and soft rebooting my Ubiquity Uni-Fi AC AP, and even double checking with the WiFi Analyzer app, I finally went into the router to check if maybe the MAC was no longer registered. Ultimately, I thought to just unbind the phone and re-enable it. I only got as far as to unbind the IP (there is a checkbox in 'IP & MAC Binding' -> 'Binding Settings') and suddenly it connected and is working again. So, if you happen to have bound a static IP to the MAC address, uncheck that box and it magically works again. The IP stays the same between connections so I guess it is not super important.

Just an idea.

EDIT:

Okay, turns out the issue resolves around the fact that you have a conflicting IP address on your network and the phone software decides to disable the connection rather than obtain a new IP. I found the best way to resolve this is to set all my major devices with an address assignment on the network (you can find this under DHCP -> Address Reservation).

So, though related, the above issue turned out only a temporary fix. My phone was trying to get the same IP as my Ubiquity AP despite the MAC binding for the AP.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] thegreenfamily04:
Is this true? AT&T's OTA for the S7 (Flat) is the same version that I got from the unreleased 7.0 thread?

I bricked my phone trying to go back to PK1, AT&T is sending a warranty replacement but my Wife's phone has this update too. Had I known I wouldn't have even touched it!

So in other words I should be able to receive any future OTA updates right? I should just leave my wife's phone alone?

I appreciate any help.

Thanks! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] burrzoo:
Hi,

If you sideloaded QA4 (or any build) you must Odin back to APk1 and then you can take the att over the air update. Otherwise, it will always say that you are up to date when you check on your phone.

Read the posts in this discussion (although it is for S7 Edge)

https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?ur...share_tid=3548594&share_fid=3793&share_type=t

OFFICIAL Nougat files for S7 Edge with February security build BQA6

If you have never updated other than using the att software update function on your phone then the Nougat 7.0 update should be available right now.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phnord:
My D850 died on me, and I have access to a spare SM-G900P Galaxy S5 –*the Sprint model.

I've never tried using a phone from a different network on AT&T before, so I don't know what to expect / how to go about this.

My understanding is that I would first need to unlock the phone. My roommate just finished paying off the phone on Sprint, so my understanding is she can request that they unlock it, yes? Is there a fee for them to do so?

I understand there are also places you can buy unlock codes, or unlock apps from. Is that necessary?

Why can't I just download and use an app to unlock it myself? Is that not a possibility?

So, my second question is about network connectivity.

4G / LTE / HSDPA+ speeds are all pretty important to me. Is it possible to mod this phone somehow to support these connections on AT&T?

I've seen mixed things. I've seen that it's not possible, that it's possible at home, and that it's only possible with access to special proprietary software...

I'm just looking for a straight answer here, as to how I could go about using this phone on AT&T, and what limitations I'd experience.

Thanks guys :)
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youdoofus:
its possible to unlock a G900P and use it on at&t, im doing that right now and have been for 8 mos or maybe even 10. You will get HSPA+ out of the box once unlocked and its pretty fast, but to get full lte, you neeed to do some serious digging into the phone itself as the bands needed for LTE on AT&T are locked. Not an easy task. But www.idoneapps.com is the best place to go. For $35 theyll unlock it and their forum is awesome, moderated byIDone and mainly NoDial. They are in Italy, but can unlock your phone.
[OnePlus 2 Accessories] -MX-:
Does anyone know if there is a USB type-C to 3.5mm headphone adaptor that works with the OPT? My headphone jack can be a little staticy at times and I was hoping for an easy solution to this issue. Most of the adaptors on Amazon are pretty poorly rated but I tried one from the link below, and not surprisingly, it didn't work.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M0TNLNO/
[OnePlus 2 Accessories] zerocd:
I don't think it supports. My USB DAC is not recognized as a external USB audio device either. OP seems does't follow USB TYPE C SPEC.

[OnePlus 2 Accessories] Dac0908:
I just connected regular USB soundchip from Realtek (SteelSeries knockoff I think), using USB-C to micro and then USB micro to OTG adapter. It works.

In Developer options there is a toggle called "Disable USB audio routing", so check that too.
[General Questions and Answers] stomis:
So Ive done some searching and since Verizons new unlimited plan is only about 5 days old Im stuck sifting through 100s of grandfathered unlimited plan posts searching for hotspot hacks. That being said heres my scenario.

My house is rural, I wouldnt consider it rural but apparently Im rural enough for the utility companies to find it rural. Never thought 2 miles off a major highway would constitute that but anyways. This means Im in a situation a lot of people are in. I like my privacy, IE owning property and not being on top of my neighbors, but I also grew up tech savvy and playing games. Im heavily dependent on the internet and like my MMORPGs... Im never expecting to replace my satellite TV with streaming for the record.

Im trying to find my best internet option. Ive been through the gambit here... Hughes net, Excede, and now on to a local fixed wireless provider. Im semi satisfied with my fixed internet provider and its been the best of the 3 but Im still stuck at 4g speeds although no data cap. My biggest issue is varying speed with them and Ive taken this concern up with them a couple times but Ive never been provided with a real solution. I was fed a BS answer of "maybe try having less things wifi'd". Im signed up for 5-7mbps with no data cap at the moment for $75 a month. If I received a steady signal I would be very happy with that. Sure its not great for heavy internet browsing but playing an MMO it would be great. But then it happens, I get .5mbs down randomly and a 400ms ping...

Ok so sorry for the long back story. My biggest concerns here are hitting a consistent connection with a moderate data cap. What Im looking into doing is adding a hotspot and upgrading my verizon plan to the new unlimited with an exterior 4g lte cell amplifier. 1 mile away as the crow flys I get 50mbps down and 70 ping on the highway on my phone...

So Im curious if there's any hack or mod to beat out these stupid 10 gig 4g lte speed caps they've placed on the hotspots? Or maybe theres a better combination of hardware I could use here that would be blind to verizon?

If theres a better section or even a forum out there more oriented towards what Im trying to do?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
There is no way to hack your data limit or data speed, that's all controlled on the network, not on the device.
[General Questions and Answers] stomis:
I kind of figured that. Maybe I worded this poorly. What I'm curious is if there's some sort of way to mask the tethering. Like if I purchase my own 4G LTE modem and then transfer a sum card from an existing unlimited device into the modem, is verizon going to know to cap my data at a 10gb tether or are they simply going to think it's still a tablet and give me 22gb full speed? And I guess the second question would be is there something I can manipulate on my end to "fool" what type of device is connected kind of like how people used to tether the grandfathered phones by swapping the SIM cards and editing some network configuration in the phone?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Well, with those questions, it isn't whether or not it can or can't be done. It's a matter of XDA not allowing this kind of discussion. We can discuss "how" to tether, but we can't discuss cheating the system, your limit is your limit, and your plan is your plan on the device you get the plan on, that's it.
[General Questions and Answers] stomis:
Although I don't understand how this is any different than bypassing the tethering ban back in the day I'll leave it at that and say ok, thanks for your help.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Because it's a subject of splitting hairs.

It breaks down like this.

While enabling tethering on devices/plans that aren't supposed to have the option is frowned upon by the carriers, it is not illegal, nor does it exceed any preset data limits. Yes, you can tether when you aren't "supposed" to but it doesn't allow you to exceed your data limit, meaning, they lose no money. You're only using data that you've already paid for, you're just doing something they don't like by using that data in a different way.

On the other hand, when you get into hiding data to get more than the prescribed limit or faking which device they think it is, then they are losing money because you're cheating them by using more data than was paid for or by using a device that isn't approved for the plan.

On devices with unlimited plans, there is effectively no money "lost", you're just using more data than they expect for the average user, which can lead to them seeing it and throttling your data or even cutting you off completely.

It's all subjective, in other words, do what you want with the device itself but don't screw the network.
[General Questions and Answers] stomis:
Right. I'm really not trying to screw them. I just want my 22gb as they see fit on a device on my hotspot... I don't understand why devices are subject to better rules that the hotspot. If they have the bandwidth to bump me back to 4G LTE after I hit the cap then they shouls, not lock me down to 3g, over pribicple...

I don't have the time to do a delicate search to find solutions with school and work, so if I could get community help, I would be grateful.

I had rooted marshmallow, but had to wipe because of tapjacking malware.

I apparently wiped TWRP and haven't been able to get it quite back to normal.

Currently I'm on 2017U B15 Nougat. I've tried wiping, but get "Can't install from SD" on stock recovery.

Developer settings won't allow me to check Unlock OEM.

I would like rooted TWRP so I can install Nougat ROMS and xposed.

Can anyone give me a clean guide with a clear cut list of wipes and installs I need to perform?

As for the Radio, when I'm driving in the country and my connection switches from LTE to 4G and my music stops streaming. I can usually manually switch bands by using *#*#4636#*#*, selecting Phone information, and Select Radio Bands from the settings. Switching to 800mhz or 800mhz-secondary(Class 10) usually snaps LTE back on immediately. Is there anyway to keep the frequencies changing to keep constant LTE so I never fall into 4G unless that's the only option?

[Android Apps and Games] liudongmiao:
I, the original author of Prevent Running, now introduce Brevent.

In short, Prevent without Root. You can get it from here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.piebridge.brevent or http://piebridge.me/br/, and source code: https://github.com/brevent/Brevent

There are several ways to prevent running for apps:

- Force-Stop, will set stopped state, no static broadcast, sinde Android 3.2, requires android.permission.FORCE_STOP_PACKAGES

-- can granted to privileged apps, /System/PrivApp

-- adb shell has it, Brevent can use

- App-Standby, since Android 6.0, requires android.permission.CHANGE_APP_IDLE_STATE

-- only granted to Framewok apps having the same singature with framework.apk

-- adb shell has it, Brevent can use

So as you can see, Brevent working on the adb shell, having the shell permission, and can do a lot of things.

Furthermore, Brevent use directy android hide methods, instead using dumpsys, am, cmd and so, more effective.

However, there is one restriction, as the permissions cannot be granted to apps, so Brevent requires you run the adb after every boot.

But, Brevent requires no-reboot to undate Brevent Server. And phone should be use, not for reboot.
[Android Apps and Games] folusmile:
Executing on everyreboot not good enough cos not with computer everytime. u can create something like Airfrozen. Similar function but with root
[Android Apps and Games] petr232:
Hi, If I'm rooted, should I keep Prevent running 2.3.2 or is Brevent better?
[Android Apps and Games] BartlebytheScribe:
Brevent not working

I execute the ADB command and it worked very briefly, but now it continuously says the server is not running. I try re-executing the ADB command, which says the server has started, but the app doesn't recognize it and still shows server not responding. Sometimes it will work and I'll start to mark apps to freeze, but then while doing that the "server not responding" message pops up again. Any ideas why?
[Android Apps and Games] torr310:
Works great on Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge running Android 7.0!

*The only drawback is you have to go through ADB to enable it everytime you restart the phone.
[Android Apps and Games] danielcuervog:
Great app, but I have a problem. Play Store doesn't install any app, but when I restart the phone, it does. I suppose that an update of these app, it stop running a Google service.
[Android Apps and Games] Sir_gpm:
What happened to the root version?
[Android Apps and Games] liudongmiao:
If you have rooted, it's possible. And Brevent now supoort root mode as experimental feature.

If you have no root, it's not possible.

And there is some way like device administrator to gain some permission.

However, there is only a device administrator. And device administrator has no the permissions to standby / force-stop other apps.
[Android Apps and Games] liudongmiao:
Root version is the same with adb version, it can only avoid adb.

However, there are some issues on root version due to selinux and other issues.

For example, some rooted devices cannot dumpsys, which is required by Brevent.

If you have rooted, you can try root version.

And if it doesn't work, just create an issues on github: https://github.com/brevent/Brevent
[Android Apps and Games] liudongmiao:
You *may* brevent some apps shouldn't be brevented, like packageinstaller or defcontainer.

I suggest you don't brevent system / framework apps if you're unsure.

For myself, I have brevented play store, and can install apps, and the play store can get update.
[Android Apps and Games] liudongmiao:
please create an issue on github with logs.
[Android Apps and Games] liudongmiao:
If you can use Prevent running 2.3.2, you probaly use Android 6.0-.

If you're tired of rooted / unlock / Xposed, you can try Brevent.

If you want to standby apps, you can try Brevent.

And IMO, Brevent is more intelligent:

1. back / home / recents list, both of them works well

2. standby, Brevent works greate.

3. UI. I think Brevent is nicer.

And please note, there are more users prefer Brevent to Prevent Running.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.piebridge.brevent&hl=en: less than 50,000 in one year, and no support.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.piebridge.forcestopgb&hl=en: more than 50,000 in short months.

There is no support from me for Prevent Running.

And, I'm sorry for old Prevent Running users, I shouldn't transfer it.
