Thanks for the help. I have no intention of downgrading right now, but I will when the nougat update comes out officially in Canada.

.

i did that but no service or service disabled

i have h818p
[G4 General] da.vandenham:
Have you flashed a H818P after the modded KDZ?
[G4 General] Deleted member 4398224:
After H815 v20o I flashed H818P v20g. Now network not working. 5 days ago I sent the device to repair.
[G4 General] da.vandenham:
Try flashing the modem manually
[G4 General] Deleted member 4398224:
Now is the device to repair. Please link for the modem. Once again I thank you for the H815 v20o.
[G4 General] da.vandenham:
Here is the link for your modem: https://mega.nz/#!e5snTbaL!BYplWw8MAyNFWJ0VrrA4UZjV0Ric3-RxIRUsELZjk1c

Place it on your internal storage and flash it by executing these commands in a terminal:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/bootdevice/by-name/modem
dd if=/sdcard/modem_h818p_20g.img of=/dev/block/platform/bootdevice/by-name/modem
[G4 General] UltimateDream:
.

i flashed h818p 20h version (GCC area)

please explain more how can i flash the modem manual using these commands by using what or how ? (sorry for my english)
[G4 General] da.vandenham:
I have extracted this modem frm the firmware you described: https://mega.nz/#!L8VwQRJY!ESrUJlFyM_kRTNEZQaUqBiLcecQ1NgBvsbBjDz77EyU

The easiest way to flash it manually is (you need root for it):

Copy the modem IMG-file to your internal storage (don't rename it!)

Open up an ADB command line on your computer

Execute the "adb shell" command (without quotes)

Elevate the shell using the "su" command (again, no quotes)

And then run these commands:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/bootdevice/by-name/modem

dd if=/sdcard/modem_h818p_20h_gcc.img of=/dev/block/platform/bootdevice/by-name/modem

Lastly, reboot you phone and it should work.
[G4 General] UltimateDream:

i need root ?

there is no root for MM H818P
[G4 General] da.vandenham:
Sorry, I overlooked that. Without root and twrp, assuming that that isnt available either, there is no way to flash a custom modem.
[G4 General] Deleted member 4398224:
For me on LG G4 H818P v20g, I think, not go custom modem?
[G4 General] da.vandenham:
Only if you got root or TWRP, sorry mate
[G4 General] mateus.sc:
Try downgrading from MM to rooted LP and then you flash the modem from the LP kdz file
[G4 General] Deleted member 4398224:
If I am a root device, I will lose the warranty on the device.
[G4 General] divineBliss:
[MENTION=7657805]da.vandenham[/MENTION],

Doesn't LGUP flash everything in the KDZ which would include modems?
[G4 General] da.vandenham:
Yes it does
[G4 General] fegitoli:
[MENTION=7657805]da.vandenham[/MENTION]

So if I wanted to downgrade from nougat, I would flash your KDZ and then stock for my variant? I really need to get the modem working on this, even if it means downgrading.

Also, since I flashed the F500L software instead of the F500K firmware, could I just edit it to work for F500L?

Any pre-modified KDZs would help a lot.

My variant is the H812 Canadian variant, which cannot be rooted, BL unlocked or have a custom recovery.
[G4 General] da.vandenham:
It should be possible yes. Open the KDZ with a HEX editor and replace F500K with F500L. LGUP flashes the modem too so that shouldn't be a problem. As for flashing a custom modem: not possible without root or custom recovery.

I am using a 4g+3g sim in my s7. I am planning to upgrade the 3g sim to 4g. Will both 4g sims work fine simultaneously?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mehtamitul:
You can have data active only on one SIM. Also, no phone supports dual volte.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] billubakra:
Thanks for replying. I am not interested in data. Can we enable 4g sims at the same time so that both can receive normal phone calls?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mehtamitul:
Well 4g does not support calling its volte that supports. As mentioned earlier no phone supports dual volte connectivity at the same time. As of now there is no phone chipset that does this.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wohltat:
Hello guys,

I upgraded to 5.2.4.1_r1 or 5.2.4._r1 (all rbox prerooted) recently and since then I had some issues with my Fire TV 4K waking up and taking my AVR and TV online with him. Yesterday I used the Fire TV, watched some shows and put it into Standby. Today it is stuck in a stupid "optimizing system storage and applications" loop. That means the box boots, shows recovery, showers the amazon fire TV logo, and then this comes. Optimizing takes around 2-3 minutes and then it reboots and the whole procedure repeats. I just upgraded to 5.2.4.2_r2 (rbox prerooted) and the loop is still there. So I guess it's some settings problem.

How do I proceed now? I guess I need to start recovery and delete / wipe / reset some stuff? In which order should I proceed so that I have least work with reinstalling?

What happens if I choose factory reset? I guess I cannot loose root since I use the prerooted images?

hey people,

I just tried to flash twrp on my z3c.

however I accidentally used something along the lines of

fastboot flash boot twrp.img

instead of

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

can I easily get back to the stock boot image?

the bootloader is unlocked and I can still access fastboot..

cheers!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adriano-A3:
You can try flash a correct kernel for your device and firmware

Let's call it by "kernel.img", so use the follow command: fastboot flash boot kernel.img

Then you can flash your recovery as you wish

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] grentuu:
First let me say, I have an Amazon Dot, and I love it. From playlists to appointments, trivia questions and timers, its great.

But on the phone it is driving me nuts.

For the Dot to work, I quite clearly have to say 'Alexa.' Then it works perfect;y. The phone on the other hand responds to, well I don't know what? If the TV is on and someone says, 'exactly'it opens. But 99% of the time I have no idea what it responded to. It comes on about 15 times a day to no really recognisable 'Alexa' command.

Anyone else?

[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] schizhawk:
Hi Everyone,

First, thanks to anyone who will search for a solution.

Moto Z2 Play is new, so I don't think there's another topic on this problem with this smartphone.

There are some Reddit topics about same problem with previous motorola Z, but solutions were only flashing custom roms or stock indian roms.

So there's the issue.

I just bought my Z2 play, and I realized there's a second slot for a second nano sim card, covered by a little plastic piece.

I red the paper instructions that confirmed the slot.

I then removed the plastic piece, inserted my second nano sim, booted, and ....... nothing happened.

So there are two possibilities :

- There are multiple Z2 Play hardware configurations, but Motorola decided to use the same slot sim pieces for both one and dual sim.

- There's a software or rom limitation that disable the second nano sim.

In parameters, there are no options for Sim.

I emailed Motorola and Lenovo, so I'll let you know, but I know for sur that XDA members are often more useful than official support.

Thanks to the community
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] lanyao1920:
I think it's software but not rom, that one should be controlled by a "Dual Sim" true/false flag you can see from settings-> about phones-> hardware information.

However to change this flag you'll need to as least unload bootloader for system modifications, below are the steps on z and z play:

[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] schizhawk:
So sorry for the response delay, the notification was flooded in my mailbox.

First, thanks a lot for your answer.

If I had a backup device, i would have try the solution that worked for the Moto Z Play.

But I only have my Z2 Play, and, just like you said, that has never been done on it.

So I'll keep searching on the wide web for a solution, cause I think you're right about the fact it's software.

Why does Motorola shut the second sim?

They would sell much more devices, cause it's a really good phone (after couple of week in my hand, so good), and there are no smartphone with this quality that can take 2 SIM cards AND a micro-SD.

Anyway, if someone else find something, I'm listening.

Thanks a lot [MENTION=2700523]lanyao1920[/MENTION]

I bet you need to load the firmware from an officially supported dual SIM variant. Or a custom ROM that supports dual SIM. I'm curious about this phone for it's dual SIM + Verizon capabilities. Anyone tried this yet? I'm on a 1+3T so there is dual SIM support baked into OOS

I didn't have a link. The forum did that.

So I have it i slot 1 now and have not had any issues.
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] Gigahyperprime1:
Oh i see. So after following the instruction, u can use Dual sim on single sim Moto Z2 Play but if u want to use the SD card u will have to eliminate sim 1, rite ?
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] N10AP:
You can set the device up to use both sim cards, but second IMEI will be 0.

In the UK at least, this is useless as none of our networks will let a 0 IMEI register on the network due to British law.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MrVarioII:
Hey folks,

First up I know this is against my T'n'C's but we're talking hypothetically here ;-) oh yes and the fact that I was originally sold this contract for connecting my laptop and PSP to the internet even although it's expressly against my T'n'Cs so I don't feel wrong about doing it.

I'm trying to connect my laptop and PSP to the internet via my Vario II (aka Hermes) from t-mobile. Several concerns crop up

1. since i'm not on the pro package I'm not allowed to do this. Ergo t-mobile must not know I'm using a laptop.

How do they detect it?

I suspect VPN on the phone might get round it...although I've had difficulty configuring it.

Would opening a VPN from the laptop after connection decieve t-mobile?

As regards browsing I assume they're just taking the browser information that the laptop's browser gives them. I suppose you can spoof that somehow?

Lastly for the psp I simply want to stream media from my desktop to my psp when I'm on the move using 'pimpstreamer' - I doubt this protocol will be too noticable.

To effect this connection though I'd need to perform the 'wifi AP' hack I've seen talked about on the wiki....

Problem is I can't seem to find Internet Connection Sharing under programs....Is this something that can be tweaked to be invisable under the registry like the GPS module in the settings section?

Thanks again for your help folks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vr24:
If you have the unlimited data plan (only $20 a month), simply turn on Internet Sharing via your phone and select "Modem Link" or whatever it's called. Plug in and voila. The PSP, not so sure.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Randvegeta:
I have a T-Mobile contract also. You shouldnt worry too much. Even if they can detect it, they dont particularly care so long as you dont go over the 1GB fair usage limit. I connect my laptop all the time and have been doing so for the past year and a half. I even went as far as buying a datacard and using that and still no complaints.

Once, I downloaded 4GB of data via my contract when my internet connection at home went down. Not even a peep. Now I only use my phone for basic usage and connect whenever I cant find a free WIFI but I still use it.

In case youre wondering I have Flext 30 with Web n Walk but I only pay 18.75 GBP per month.

Dont worry and enjoy!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] d.butters:
There's an awesome program in the development section that actually allows you to turn your hermes into a wifi hotspot. it connects to the internet through the phone's connection, then shares that connection over wifi. It works perfectly for me, although I rarely really need to use it. Very hand; I wish I could remember what it's called. Search "Wifi Sharing" in the development thread and you should find it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] shandar:
OT: WHAT!? How did you do that! I've got Flext 30 with WnW and I pay 32.50! And that is with a £5 discount!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] hidavi:
Its against T-Mobile rules to use Internet Connection Sharing?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Randvegeta:
I got it because I signed up as a Curry's Employee and got a permanent lifetime discount of 50% off.

Yes it is againt their terms of service but as I said.. really doesnt matter.. just dont do anything that would make you jump out. Dont use more traffic than you should. Dont use it for VOIP and dont stream music/video to/from it.

I know what you are talking about because I also use it on my Hermes. It's called WMWifiRouter.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] hidavi:
I do it all the time and I've never gotten in any trouble for it. Then again, T-Mo EDGE is usually too slow for me to want to use it on my laptop anyways.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vr24:
I just use it when there is no WiFi available --- the edge is a bit slow, but still VERY usable. Never had an issue either.

I'm looking into that WMWifiRouter, looks cool as hell.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MrVarioII:
Thanks to everyone for their advice!

That program looks amazing...The website is currently down however...

Any chance someone could email a copy of the program to me at

verylastninja at yahoo dot co dot uk ? It sounds like exactly what I'm needing.

Also the cached page from google says I need ICS installed. 'Windows\IntShrui.exe' - I've checked and there's no such executable in my windows folder.

Does anyone know where I can get my hands on this exe? I'm about to try googling but am worried about getting the wrong version :)

Your sim works in a datacard? that's cool. How much do those things cost? Never even thought of trying it ;)

Lastly I should say I'm running Microsoft Windows Mobile Version 5.0 (OS5.1.195 (build 14955.2.3.0).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vr24:
I'm very curious how you access via a datacard as well.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vr24:
Ah.... Sony GC79/GC89 is built for tmobile!

Although I guess you couldn't use your phone if your sim is in the datacard. Any workarounds to use both at the same time with same service plan, he he?

T-Mo charges $49.99 for unlimited internet, wow... but only $19.99 if it's unlimited on a phone, could consider adding a new "phone" to your account with unlimited internet and just pop the sim in the datacard and go.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MrVarioII:
Suppose there's not really a lot of difference between using your phone as a modem and using a datacard mind you. So unless they're pretty cheap I'd probably be best sticking with the varioII

Anyone know about the ICS bit? I've seen people reffer to it before. (I gave my windows mobile version etc on my earlier post btw) at first I thought it would be like the GPS settings in control pannel - hidden by some registry entry by t-mobile (and I can think why they would want to).

However that file reffered too Windows\IntShrui.exe

also what's AKU3? Sorry for being such a clueless n00b on this but I've got a little bit of a steep learning curve here!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MrVarioII:
Pretty pretty please? ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MrVarioII:
Ok found ICSinstall.cab on here and installed it, soft reset, and attempted to install the latest version of the WMWifiRouter program (which I finally succeeded in sourcing!).

However I get a message telling me cryptically that it 'cannot be installed' after attempting install. I wonder if this is related to ICS...

I now have the InShrUI.exe file in /windows/ *but* attempting to run it gives:

'The file 'IntShrUI' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of it's components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file.'

I reinstalled it over itself (i.e. ran the cab again) same error.

:-/

Was this the right file? I seem to remember it was dated 11th January 2008??
