Baboola if you read the Flashing for Newbs post by Mskip you'll notice flashing Radios isn't necessary, but as we learned from the Tilt bad radios can come along so being unlocked could come in handy, and the donation to Olipro is for a good cause.

To answer your question, the radio stays it doesn't disappear when you flash, it's separate from the ROM AFAIK, and can be updated separately, some ROMs will NOT work with some radios, and better with others. So far i have yet to change my radio, with my first few ROM flashes, but i will be unlocking my phone to get other radios (e.g. Blackstone, incase they work better with ported software) Hope that helps.

I installed one with no problems, thanks.

I was wondering in the experience of the members here, which radio has provided the longest battery life. That is one of my main concerns. My current phone stats are in my sig. Thanks.

I have a TMO S22U and basically I immediately flashed to U1. I'm just curious are there any advantages I'm missing out on being on U1 opposed to T-Mobile U? I know there probably aren't many but I'm just curious.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] butchieboy:
Some say U1 us better. I'm At&t so probably someone on Tmo will chime in. But for me, U1 offered nothing over U. I mean yes no At&t bloat but I can disable what I don't want on U to get the desired affect.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] SomeXGhost:
My biggest thing was the T-Mobile splash screen, it sounds SO DUMB but flashing to U1 made it literally 100% Samsung for me I'm just wondering what could have been lol
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dalepl:
The only thing I heard, but I am not certain about is that you lose the TMO visual email capability. Otherwise I have not heard anything else. I am on TMO and I kept mine on U. As butchieboy said, I just disable what I do not want. In all reality, there is not much from TMO that is loaded on the system side. More of the bloat is from Samsung and Google.

Thanks for the speedy replies guys much appreciated 👍🏻

One thing I noticed when I did the same thing, was I could not get 5G Ultra Capacity to work. Not certain I was doing anything wrong, just wouldn't work for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dalepl:
I think I read somewhere that you do get it, but there is no icon for it in the U1 image. It will show 4G LTE. Check your download speeds.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] slime340:
I did, 2 days apart in the same spot, the icon showed 5G as did the speed test connection type, but the speeds were much slower than 5G UC, almost 400 Mbps difference. Switched the firmware, back to the insane, almost WiFi type speeds.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dalepl:
Did you check the mobile networks setting to make sure 5G is available and selected?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] slime340:
Yes, that was my first thought. It never quite worked the way I should have.

preinstalled crap apps on tmo firmware
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ErickF:
The main benefit for me on the unlocked firmware is the built in called id and spam blocking. For att you have to pay extra and tmobile has it on its best plan. But still think it works better than tmobiles implementation. And since i change carriers often i like to always have caller id and spam blocking no matter which one i use.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lmtdshady:
Can I ask what specific firmware you used to flash to unlocked?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] SomeXGhost:
I downloaded the S980U1UEU1 firmware which on the latest update ends with AVCK. Used Frija to download it
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Compusmurf:
Carrier firmwares usually get updated a week before the u1 series does.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] hyelton:
Would've just been a considence. U1 firmware does connect to 5G UC just look at the service menu and it'll confirm if your connected to N41 or not.

But I moved back from u1 to tmv U firmware due to having weird call /sms issues where it would just stop working and only fix was a reboot. Hasn't happened since switching back to U firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] joancolmenares:
Here's an interesting question..

I was on TMO and I bought a S22U from TMO (unlocked it with them afterwards) and of course it was on 5GUC and everything (I used ESIM). I got another sim (Mint Mobile) and when used as primary it would show 5G+

After a while, and just out of spite of the hideous 4G LTE TMO icon I Flashed the U1 firmware.. I'm no longer using TMO as I ported my number to Mint and it has been good.. Would it make sense to return to TMO U firmware or should I stay in U1 as Im no longer using the TMO sim?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] The Root:
Probably fine on U1. You're no longer connecting to anything advantageous besides updates being slightly faster with U.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] doubledragon5:
I'm with T-Mobile, but purchased mine directly from Samsung.. I have the S22 Ultra U1. Since my last phone purchased from T-Mobile A52 5G. biggest change, No daily spam calls or text.. What a difference that makes.. With T-Mobile, their so called Spam blocker was notihng more than a spam attractor. Plus no more of the hidious bloat and splash screen..
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ekerbuddyeker:
I have the unlocked and I dirty flash switch between U and U1 depending on which newest ROM is out. There's absolutely no difference save for the annoying TMOB splash screen and that it says UC ... But from my extensive testing the speeds are the same whether it says 5G on the U1 or 5GUC on the U.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wang_gochu:
i have a 908U bought from bestbuy and locked with Verizon.

is it possible to flash with unlock firmware and unlock the device?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dalepl:
What do you mean by unlock? You are wanting the phone to be unlocked to use on any carrier? Did you purchase the phone out rite or did you finance it through a carrier? What carrier are you using? More information would be nice.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wang_gochu:
i paid in full and verizon wont unlock it they keep saying 60 days
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] SomeXGhost:
Hey man respectfully, no vulgarities here, I myself am gay and don't appreciate it thanks 👍🏻
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dalepl:
OK, flashing the U1 firmware will not unlock it. You will have to pay a service or wait the 60 days. Unlocking it will only allow you to change service providers. Changing to U1 will get rid of the Verizon apps on the system, but if you look, there really is not much added by any of the providers any more. Most bloat is from Google and Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wang_gochu:
thanks for the clear answer . whole time i thought it was possible. my device is paid in full but these verizon people keep saying 60 days. do you know a site where i can just pay and unlock it?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dalepl:
I have not looked, but there are many posts on here about that. Why are you wanting to unlock it?

Hi. Not that i may know. Carrier ones are more bloated with there own apps. On the other hand the U1 is not bloated with there apps. Some settings might be different and U might miss some carrier features though.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] SrgWallopy:
I bought a U1 from Best buy. This was about 2 years ago.

The features I couldn't access because of being on U1. (Could be different now).

Ability to Video call direct through phone app, (not using duo, that U1 used).

RCS on default Samsung messages app. (It has those customizable notification features I love. But you can still use Google messages if you don't like default on U1.)

5G UWB, and maybe some speed differences.. could have just been a bad day when I was running the default U1 for my device. (Screenshot is on U with base 5G in my house).

Visual Voicemail, and a few other TMobile related features.

Oh and you can see who has RCS in contacts, phone app, and messenger if you use the default apps. So that's nice.

I have a lot of friends that use googles messenger and I can't video call them but I can send full images ect.

Carrier bloat is minimal, it's basically just the Tmo app, (I side loaded the U onto my U1, so take that with a grain of salt, Tmo can always push those after the firmware was installed before they sell device.)

Finally UPDATES,

U and U1 both still wait for Tmo, but it's U gets OTA pushed within the month, U1 was quarterly. As the rep said 'we can't verify if the phone is compatible with our system so it may take longer" Of course you can do it manually through 3rd part apps.

Overall, U is for me as my wife and we shoot 'chats' back and fourth all day and using the default messenger is a lot nicer for us than installing yet another app. Built in Video calling is wonderful also, you never know who has duo. Also the apple esque monthly updates I don't have to worry about is nice.

Anyone who runs U1 please reply or copy and paste my message and put in if they changed it. I'm curious.!!

That's all my experience. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] SomeXGhost:
Back when I had my S21U I didn't have any difference in network speed or connection comparing U & U1, can't be so sure personally as I haven't used my S22U on U firm for more than a few hours... It's been a few weeks now too and my battery JUST started getting better 😂
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] michaellengyel33:
I bought the unlocked variant. No bloatware and I'm not tied to T-Mobile. But I don't see a difference. Everything works. But you won't see the UC or whatever icon T-Mobile puts on it. But you'll still get the speeds and all the network connections. And if you download tmobile visual voicemail app. You'll still be able to do that as well.

I have T-Mobile SM-S908U S22Ultra.. Unlocked from TMobile few days later. Flashed and been using SM-S908U1 with TMB CSC firmware and TMobile eSim.

While travelling overseas, I've added an additional eSim and noticed that when switching between eSim the phone requires restart.

When I flash back SM-S908U, I was able to switch between eSims without any restart.. But as the date of this writing it's only one eSim at the time.. I was able to use T-Mobile eSim and one Physical sim at the same time.

Hope this helps.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Markeee:
Waiting Sucks , I have a US unlocked factory SM-S908U1 running on a Xfinity mobile hard sim and a T-Mobile esim. I regularly flash back and forth between SM-S908U1 and SM-S908U which ever firmware comes out first, there's no need to wait for your particular carrier firmware to come out as long as it's your counties model and you don't flash any Userdata files and you do flash the HOME_CSC file it won't reset your phone and absolutely nothing I can see will change except the splash screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] intheb0x:
Do you flash the user data file and do you use home CSC or the CSC that comes with TMO?

I didn't flash user data and I used home.csc to not wipe data and I do not get 5guc icon but do connect to UC towers flashing from u1 back to U TMO firmware on a U device.

This is the holding back factor the icon is either apart of user data file or the wiping CSC file ,trying to find out.

i just wanted to start a thread for the japanese version of this phone which seems nobody have. you can get them cheap from japan for less than 100 USD that's locked to one of the big 3 there. I got a softbank one and asked around so far there is no way to defeat the sim lock. the device can have bootloader unlock option is there. is there a way to remove sim lock once the phone is rooted? sony is nice you can use qunlock tool and doesn't matter what lock. my first time messing with LG and an oppo that is another story, waiting for some indian dude to send the 16 digit code. the LG i asked ebay services and one website so far nobody can unlock it. so i come here to see if there are other ways to unlock it.

also are the hardware the same as other v60? i know sony xperia have different modem hardware and have some bands locked down.

these are nice enough for the price you can enjoy for audio and home or toddler use.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] mkennedy455:
I don't know the answer to your specific question but I will tell you I tried getting a remote sim unlock (from a site that seemed to have good reviews) and it ended up bricking my phone. The only reason it's booting again now is from help from a member on here. The problem now is it has no imei number at all.

Before I tried the remote unlock I bought an unlock code from 2 different websites the first refunded me in a few hours saying they could not unlock my device and the second one never sent anything or refunded so I've sent an email to them.

So I would be wary of the remote unlocks if you found any available.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] wang890:
so far i tried 3 companies.

1. unlockbase, payment goes to unlockjp.com, sent 10 usd, said will refund, this one is for an oppo phone. this one you have to chat with whatsapp and original wanted to send money with SBI bank, DBBL bank, BML, USDT Tether us, all Indian stuff and also take paypal just a little more money. the guy on the chat seems nice. even has their own facebook page, i'll give them a few days to refund.

2. the unlocking company, also can't find code for the LG and will refund take up to 10 days. will wait, very good communications from this one.

3. cellunlocker.net, pretty much refund the same day, this one is good company.

i gave up unlocking the oppo and LG, AU and Softbank respectively for now. just gonna pay for the two sony phone unlock with qunlock. can't go wrong with that one. just some info for the internet if they come across these companies. i will write back when i get money back for the first two.

Oppo has a software unlock but i think only works for the older models.

one way to access split screen mode is using 3 finger gesture swipe, is there another way?

with my s7 edge there was the split screen icon in the app switcher (tree lines)

second question, what is the T lock / unlock symbol in the top right corner of the app switcher? what does it do?

third question, anyway to increase the loud speaker volume? is it just the media volume setting?

This is the unknown lock/unlock symbol I'm referring to. What does it do? I pressed it and didn't notice anything different
[TCL 20 Pro 5G] Hammer4000:
I think the lock symbol is supposed to keep the process running in the background. I could (and probably am) wrong, but I thought I read that somewhere. And it only seemed to work for a short time.
[TCL 20 Pro 5G] rickywangca:
1. Yes, the 3 finger gesture swipe is one way, I also believe you can assign the smart key button (left side) to start split screen as well, I think you can either do press, double press, or hold

2. If you swipe down on the app while in app switcher, it keeps process open in background, and won't be closed if you click "clear memory"

3. Just increase it as much as you can. This phone does have a weaker loudspeaker, especially with only one on the bottom

I have a sprint touch and was wondering where to start putting a custom rom on. Is there a guide or something to show me though. In dumby terms. Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] mX87m:
Hi all,

Before you jump at me telling me I haven't searched the forum, I DID and I couldn't solve my issue even with these solutions. To get you up to speed on what exactly I did.

Briefing (not very important):

I was doing my own business and I was free, I use my phone daily and it served me well. But I noticed that the last security patch I got was on 2020 and got me thinking. Why not just use custom ROMs to update my phone and get a year or two from my MIX3 (2018). I just recently flushed my brother's phone (Samsung) with a custom ROM and I liked it. I already installed TWRP 3 years ago on my brother's phone and I just had to install a zip file and boom new Android 12 on a 2014 phone.

The problem:

after reading here on the forums, it seemed that it is more complicated to do. I'm up to the challenge, I have done it before and the reward is worth it.

+Unlocking the Bootloader

this was a bit easy other than the connection issues but I got it unlocked eventually. (use the QR code to sign it. it is much easier)

I had an issue where after unlocking the bootloader the phone didn't allow me to install TWRP and do a backup, it immediately went into erasing the entire phone.

+Installing TWRP

I downloaded the files from TWRP website and everything was smooth other than the Mi Recovery popping every time I restart (install Magisk to plant TWRP then remove it if you don't need root)

+The downhill

after restarting, the phone worked fine I installed all the apps and restored everything. Afterward, I noticed that the camera does not work. It gives me an error. I reinstalled TWRP again since it was reverting to its Mi Recovery and I think here was the problem I flashed the recovery.img into the boot partition by mistake (I didn't notice at first) but after going back to the command I saw I made a mistake and

reflashed the recovery with

recovery.img

and installed the Magisk and everything was ok. At the initial start, the SIM and the WIFI are not working.

after several attempts at reinstalling different flashable stock ROMs, I saw that the issue is consistent. I read online that you have five .img files that control the different parts of your phone. I got tired and decided to

reflash the stock ROM via the Mi flasher

and get it back to stock.

Even after flashing the stock ROM, I'm still having the same issue.

I reflashed the modem.img in the modem and still wifi and sim card are not working

I read that some phones have an A/B partition and my phone does NOT have it.

I'M AT A LOSS I CAN NOT FIX IT. IT'S BEEN 3 DAYS ON THIS AND I CAN NOT FIGURE IT OUT!!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] mX87m:
Ok, If anyone was passing by I think I found what was the problem.
