[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samfirmwar:
Hi All,

I have a newly refurbished Korean samsung galaxy s4 LTE active (LGU) SHV-E330L with baseband E330LKLUDPH1. It heats up heavily and have battery draining issue due to wifi reconnection and mobile signal searching in countries like India, pakistan and Bangladesh. Also, it does not have LTE band 3 support which is usually available in the international version i9505 or i9506 of the same device and is also supported by the chipset.

I updated the device with custom ROMs but it could not change the baseband, if I try official firmware, I get fail : auth error in odin along with secure check fail for: aboot.

I also tried flashing bootloader and modem from i9505 and i9506 only but could not change the baseband and get the same auth error.

I also tried NV writing to NV item 6828 but it gave success message only but did not update the values, as I checked by backing up again.

Currently I have twrp recovery installed along with 6.0.1 marshmallow and it shows model SM-G900M galaxy s5 but still all those problem exist.

My questions are :

1. Is it possible to change baseband? How ?

2. Is there any stable baseband for galaxy s4 without any issues?

3. Will it softbrick the device if I update the bootloader and modem now?

4. How do I backup/restore/flash modem or bootloader using TWRP ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
You cannot cross-flash the bootloader from another s4 to this phone using Odin. Also, cross-flashing the bootloader could hard-brick the phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samfirmwar:
Thanks for replying .

with Heimdall , is it possible ?

I can leave alone the boot loader , I only want to flash compatible modem.bin and non HLOS bin .

Do you know a way to fix this ?

I have tried many custom roms but none seem to help about network .
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krasCGQ:
Really?

You can only flash firmware from the same model as your device.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
I don't recommend cross-flashing modems either and an incompatible bootloader/modem could hard brick the phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samfirmwar:
Thanks for your reply .

Hi , I understand , it can brick the phone but how do I resolve the problem ? if not the boot loader but a compatible modem firmware such as international version of GT-i9506 could help ? Is there a compatible modem software other than the original firmware ?

As I stated my problems clearly in the original post, I have several problems with device software as i think they are software problems.

Is there any fix or solution for that other than what I tried ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samfirmwar:
Hi

Is there any other solution other than what I tried as in the original post ?

Is there any other compatible modem binary other than shv model ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samfirmwar:
IS there a solution other than what I tried ?

could this be antenna problem ? changing hardware will solve this ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
1. You can only flash a baseband that applies to your device. Attempting to flash other basebands will fail and could damage the device, as [MENTION=4673498]audit13[/MENTION] mentioned. As [MENTION=6589753]krasCGQ[/MENTION] makes clear, using Heimdall instead of Odin won't change this fact.

2. There may be other basebands available for your device, but that requires downloading the ROMs from sammobile or samsung-updates and extracting modem.bin and NON-HLOS.bin from them.

3. Updating the bootloader and the modem won't brick the device, so long as they are for your device. For example, you can flash an I9505 modem and baseband on any I9505, but cannot flash the same baseband and modem on an I9500.

4. You don't. You need Wanam Partition Backup and Restore to back up the modem partition. Backup up the bootloader you can do as well, but there's no point to it.

You asked how to resolve the battery drain and your other issues. Start downloading older ROMs and trying to flash their basebands until you find one that works well for you. Since you cannot flash basebands from other devices onto yours this is the only viable software solution other than "sucking up and dealing" with it. To answer your most recent question, changing the motherboard could in fact solve the issue, but like the basebands, the hardware is specific from one model to another. For example, you cannot place an I9505 motherboard in an I9500 device. You would need to purchase a SHV-E330L motherboard.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samfirmwar:
Thanks for the reply.

1. I9500 has different Chipset but i9506 has same as SHV-e330L . I understand the risk. My question is are you aware of compatible basebands for shv e330l other than original ?

2. I backed up using twrp recovery including bootloader, modem and efs, is it sufficient or do I still need Wanam Partition Backup ?

I will try older basebands for the same too.

One thing strange, originally , NV 6828 bit for original device should have been 15 for 1+3+5 LTE but are (08 10 00 ) band 4 + 13 LTE .
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
1. Chipset is irrelevant. If the baseband isn't for your model of S4 you will not be able to install it.

2. TWRP doesn't back up modem partitions at all, because the partitions in question cannot be seen by TWRP. Wanam is required.

I never was able to add bands to my I9505 and nearly bricked the device in trying it. I would stop trying to add bands.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taudio123:
Hi I was wondering if anyone had tried to activate a T-Mobile S4 variant on Sprint networks . I read where one will need a valid ESn Number . I realize that Sprint uses different bands for their voice text and LTE data then T-Mobile does . Would I need to install a Sprint variant S4 rom to solve this issue with the cellular modem radio . Any help appreciated
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Late reply here. You have issues that will make it very difficult for you to accomplish what you're trying to do.

1. You can't install a Sprint ROM on a T-Mobile device. Odin will check to determine whether the ROM is correct for the device, and if it isn't, will refuse to install it.

2. Installing a Sprint baseband on a T-Mobile device, if it were possible, would render the wireless capabilities of the device useless until the T-Mobile baseband were restored.

3. You'd need to convert the IMEI to an ESN. This is perhaps the easiest thing to do since the ESN is the IMEI, but ignoring the very last digit in the IMEI (the check digit).

4. Sprint is extremely reluctant to activate non-Sprint phones on their network, to the point of outright refusal in some cases.

I personally recommend switching from Sprint to T-Mobile or an MVNO using T-Mobile if you really want to use this device. Not only is the service better than Sprint, you don't have any hoops to jump through in order to get the S4 working on the network. If you insist upon using Sprint, find a different device.
[Samsung Gear VR] Dadekovski:
Hello,

Here I am again with a few noob questions, please be so kind and help me with these:

1) does Note 8 gets overheated while using it in gaming, watching movies, VR prZEROn (especially this last one xd)?

2) how long (circa) does the battery last?

3) are those pixels really noticable? I have seen somewhere that someone said they are. The picture is not that clear :/

4) something about the Motion Controller? Is it good, precise?

5) can you watch all the above ( "1)") while laying in bed

6) should I just wait for Sammy standalone device or Gear VR Note 8 edition is an excellent choice?

Thank you in advance for your time and answers.
[Samsung Gear VR] joebuddy78:
Just another junior member, but I'll do my best to answer your questions

1. I've noticed no overheating on the Note 8 during the games I've played or content I've watched, and prZEROn . . . well, even at this early stage, is truly the future. It is, in fact, so amazing it makes it worth the experience itself. Content is pretty easy to find, and can be easily streamed to your device with apps like SkyboxVR.

2. I don't have an estimate for you, but on a full charge it shouldn't be a problem. Several hours, would be my answer, although it depends on several.

3. No, and the free content I've found is available in an array of resolutions including 1080p and 4k.

4. The motion controller is fine, although a lot of content (games especially) require the gamepad. As far as that goes, it does't have to be a special one, an xbox one controller with bluetooth will do the job, or the android gamepad, or any other bluetooth supported controller that pairs with android should be fine.

5. Should be fine.

6. If you've got a note 8 you don't WANT a GearVR . . . . you NEED a GearVR.
[Samsung Gear VR] petethepete2000:
The pixels are noticeably

The whole thing is a slight blur and you can see pixels but it is still amazing and worth the price, plus alot of content is now reduced in price to just a few dollars.
[Samsung Gear VR] Wilsonb:
I'm using (upgraded) to the Note 8 version of Gear VR because it would not fit in the 2017 black model. I didn't even know this was an issue until I tried it with my Note 8 (coming from Note5)

It was disappointing, that the new black model wouldn't even work with Note 8. However F@$ Samsung. They careless about customers.

"wait for Sammy standalone device or Gear VR Note 8 edition " I assume this is the version I have.

Anyway, I have not had anymore over heat issues with Note 8.

All based on Samsung Gear Menu

The areas' not directly looked at, are out of focus. You can still see the pixel screen effect , but not as bad.

The Motion Controller is excellent and pairs with it well. After getting used to it, you wont use the pad on the Gear VR anymore.

Can't really use menu when lying down with head flat. The Gear Menu has a horizon limit , meaning you have to use it looking at least parallel with ground.

Is it worth it? I think so, it's second best to the FAR more EXPENSIVE tethered versions of VR. The fact that's its portable and able to use remote, on plane/traveling.. makes it better than those.

I used to use Google card board with Gear VR, but haven't been able to find the QR Code for Note 8 using Google CardBoard. Anyone?
[Samsung Gear VR] BPRN:
I use the Samsung Gear VR headset 2017 with my Note 8. It is amazing. Loove the gear controller, very accurate and can calibrate it easily while playing/ hanging out in vr by pointing it straight ahead and pressing a button on it. Check out **Altspace VR** app in the Samsung Oculus store for realtime vr with other people live! There are events and people from all over the world. Many use the HTC Vibe and Oculus Rift. My phone gets hot, but does not overheat. It will definitely last several hours plus. However you can attach the charging cable while using the headset. I personally do not see the pixels. I have tilted backto watch Netflix and it worked fine but I didn't try the menu. Overall love the Samsung Gear VR. My $89 (for headset and controller) was very well spent!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Sags224:
So this happened a while ago but I ended up just getting an s8 cause I didn't have time to deal cause it was around finals and everything but now I want to get it up and running. I unlocked the bootloader with sunshine and had a custom rom (dont remember which) and when I opened it I accidentally ripped the connection to the wireless charger inside, and very shortly after that it would only display the charge logo at 1% when plugged in. Coincidence or caused by it? Cant get into recovery mode or anything. Anyone have any suggestions?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] njrootp:
Hi I was wondering if anyone had tried to do this or even it is possible? I read where sprint is now allowing "Global unlocked" phones to activate but I have not been able to determine if the note 5 is considered "global"? I would assume I would need to add a cutom recovery, root the phone, add a sprint satock rom and appropriate baseband fw. But would this solve the needed ESN number issue? My understanding is that on sprint variant phones the ESN is burned on the system board? any thoughts on this appreciated.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] q2r3:
I bought a XZ Premium of ebay which is coming in two days and the seller said that he has used the DRM patch, I know you need this for the sony camera to work on unlocked/rooted devices but I also heard some other sony features are disabled even with the DRM patch, also could I revert to stock ROM and receive OTA updates again? Thanks.:good:
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] FartyParty:
It's already using stock rom and no, you can never get OTA updates again.

Did he say it had warranty?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] q2r3:
Nope their is no warranty he said, so is their no way I could flash an OTA update, maybe use the sony companion software, if not thats a bummer.

Edit: It comes with Oreo, cant I install TWRP and flash updates, am I stuck on this specific ROM?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] FartyParty:
Yes, you can still flash new fw as you please.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] q2r3:
Okay thanks, so could I install a unrooted stock rom with OTA updates and use that?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] FartyParty:
Whats on it right now is completely stock. If you reflash you lose drmfix and the camera will stop working.

You will never be able to get ota updates because bootloader is unlocked and drmkeys gone forever = no relocking.

You will have to manually flash each update as the become avaible and hope drmfix is compatible with that version.

So, I have this lenovo device which had an issue with the fingerprint that weren't recognizing my fingerprint so I tried "as a solution" to remove all of the fingerprint of the root of the device.. The result was that I've screwed up :eek: .. So I have no fingerprint anymore..

I tried everything (Installing new version "7.1.1" , Installing old version "5.1.1" , Re-flashing stock rom, Wiping system section. EVERYTHING) Put the files didn't came back !

So I need someone has the device working to install the es file manager and search for the word "fingerprint" and upload all the files so i can put them back manually ..

And thanks in advance.. :good::good:

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bimmerd00d:
why not go over to DCD's 2.3.0 thread and read his instructions. If you've already unlocked your phone, then it's a simple double click and fill out some checkboxes, then have a coke and a smile.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Geckotek:
I'm trying to figure out what each of the checkboxes means. I'm sure this is documented somewhere, but for some reason it's not in the main post. The main post seems to assume that you've already cooked ROMs before. This is my first HTC (although I've done a lot of Palm ROM editing in the past.)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] DV8Ways:
I just recently jumped on the boat from 6700 to Mogul and cooked my first ROM the other day and let me tell you, it's not easy finding straight forward instructions on how to do it but the info is out there... Your not the first to ask this question and I'm sure you won't be the last... I read around the forum for about 3 days and gathered everything I needed to know... The best thing is that you're nearly forced to read some threads from begining to end which provides a lot of great insight to the underground world of Titan Modding...

My advise is to look around, gather all the info you need and then ask specific questions about the update process... People are more willing to give specific advise as opposed to detailing a step by step...

Best of luck...

Hi, I was recently thinking about changing my phone so thought of buying the LG G4. A guy near my place is selling it. I have also heard about the bootloop issue. Although the phone was working fine on his shop, should I still buy the phone? Are there any special conditions under which the phone goes into the bootloop so I can test it either using a stress test tool or playing a demanding game before buying? Please, I need some help!

Thanks,

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raptorddd:
from with serial number on back starting with 601 are less likely to bootloop the higher the number the better. lower then be cautuious.

if you dont care LG not giving nougat officialy. and poor battery. go ahead but also make sure its one of the unlockable bootloaders

search for list of lg g4 that can be nootloader unlocked.

if all okey go ahead has nice camera and unofficial beta N its nice. but official would be better.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowFiend98:

Buying a device which can be unlocked is absolutely necessary to fully enjoy that phone plus you can do some adjustments regarding bootloop only when unlocked.

unlocked bootloader you can flash other roms stock based or aosp.

you can install kernek and tune it for performance or battery.

[Phoenix OS News, Q&A & Development] netizenmt:
I've just come across Phoenix OS and tried it out. While it works great for my purposes, I began to wonder about something. You know how there are stories in the news all the time about foreign countries, particularly China, Russia and North Korea are always finding ways of hacking into US secured sites and what not? How do we know that Phoenix isn't sharing all of our private info with hackers or something? I know it sounds paranoid, but we live in that sort of world now. Any thoughts? (Other than I'm crazy delusional, paranoid and don't use it.) Thanks.
[Phoenix OS News, Q&A & Development] Krystalmyth:
Dude, after Snowden, the NSA leaks, and homeland security policy, you've honestly have a hell of a lot more to worry about domestically from your own country to be worried about any foreign nation trying to hack your system. The fact this app is made in a foreign land isn't something that should elevate concern, it's whether or not it connects to the internet and you happen to use it to do anything. That's the threat vector you should be worried about always. The fact you even posed this question implies you're somehow more secure on Windows 10 or Android in general just because they're not developed in China. I honestly trust these guys more than I ever would Microsoft or any other company Snowden's leaks long identified as part of Prism. Think Windows 10 forces updates only for our well being? They upload and download files constantly. My laptop has never been as quiet as when I'm on PhoenixOS. It's serene how at ease it is compared to the constant activity I see on Windows machines. Only one on your side here is you and what you do with the data under your domain, once you go online you're at risk. Once you lose your control or possession of your system, you're at risk. Whether in San Antonio or Shanghai.

[Phoenix OS News, Q&A & Development] mowto:
Use phoenix os it's not a problem for your datas, NSA already owns them, in the moment you begin using anything developed from US companies like microsoft apple or google you give your private life to them.

The real problem for the security is the usa not china,russia or any other country. If you are so paranoid you can use android x86 without google apps, avoid to use android emulator because they are closed source and you can't verify if there are backdoors.
