[Q] S8500 freezes - Bada Software and Hacking General

Hello!
A few weeks ago, my wave started to do crazy things.
The camera didn't work and it freezed when trying to make a call.
I decided to flash the latest firmware (XXJL2 full) via MultiLoader.
This solved the camera problem but not the freeze problem:
If i dial a number and press call, the phone freezes for about a minute.
Then it makes the call like normal and after the call it freezes for another minute.
For incoming calls, it freezes for a minute and then rings, even when the caller already hanged up.
Did anybody have this problem before?
~ghertgh
BTW sorry for my poor english.

Hi,
I have seen similar strangeness with my Wave I (permanent reboots) after updating to 1.2.
On german telefon-treff, some users claim that a master reset fixes the problem...

Oh I forgot to say:
I already did some master resets, I downloaded the firmware from another source and reinstalled it, didn't help.
I'll try to flash an older firmware now..

Hello
Didn't You dropped your wav in to the water? if not, try the service, this is very odd problem, mostly because you did master and flash.

Older firmware doesn't work too.
So i think it's hardware-related.
Nope, didn't drop it into the water or something like that.
My problem with the service is that the phone is unlocked, so I think my warranty is void.

if u think your problem is hardware related try and flash back to the original firmware which u got with your phone or the latest firmware for your region. after that the service centre should not detect that you have flashed your firmware and you will still get it covered under warranty. or do you mean that your phone was locked when you bought it and that you unlocked it?

exactly. I removed the SIM lock because I traveled to Germany for some weeks and wanted to use a prepaid card.

I removed the SIM lock...

I don't know how it was unlocked because it was unlocked by a phone shop.
I'll just send it to the nearest Samsung Service Partner, let's see what happens.
Thanks to all who answered!

Sim locked after flashing

Hi,
I have an Acer Liquid E for half a year now, and decided to flash a custom ROM on it.
I Flashed it with LiquidNext without any problems, but my GPS software didn't work on it.
So i flashed it back with a standard ROM.
The problem starts here...
The ROM I found, downloaded an flashed my phone with, was one for Fido devices only.
I didn't notice the message that it's for Fido phones only in the thread of that site *dumb me*, so I flashed the Fido ROM to my Liquid E *still dumb me*.
Problem is: My phone asksk for a code to unlock my sim card, because it thinks it is a Fido device...
I don't have such code, so I have a huge problem.
I already paid for a code, but I still have to hear that my phone has no matching unlock code.
Pretty obvious, because my phone is not a standard Fido phone, so the IMEI code has no match.
But my question is: How can I unlock my device?
I already tried:
www .acer-club. fr/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=814
(remove space after www and before fr; can't post links yet)
and also to put another ROM on it.
But nothing seems to help.
Can one of you pro's help me?
Thanks in advance!
Prokonobi
Anybody please?
Id like to know where you found the fido rom

I did. I tried 5 different services (ebay, unlock sites...), but no one could help.
Everybody refunded the money because they couldn't find a code for my phone.
They say that it's because it was no Fido phone at first, so there is no code availiable.
cheers
Can you just not put another rom on your phone and try it then or will it still be locked

I tried several different ROM's, but the phone is still locked.
I tried LiquidNext, Liquid-Community-Rom and even the standard acer ROM.
Maybe the rom is corrupted try to DL it again and also ...when had you flashed your phone hade you removed the sim?????

No, I didn't remove the sim, didn't thought it was necessary. But the SIM works fine on my old nokia, so that's not the problem I think.
I already tried to download it again, but it doesn't help.
I've read somewhere that it could be the radio ROM. Is this possible?
cheers

pay service center = shop where I bought it?
Because it's an Acer phone, and the devices from acer take months to get repaired and sent back to you...
good luck I hope someone on the site can help ya
did you try using any other sim on your acer !!
if no sim works , it may also be the hardware fault or your sim reader may be busted !!
Maybe this is the solution
Yesterday evening i have installed a new "OS" in my phone (samsung Ace).The Os
is Glsmt v2.1 and i had your same problem but i solve it because there was a
theme that hide the unlocking of Sim.Now if your Os have a default theme try to
disabled it and unlocking the sim with PIN code.Please let me know if you solved
@aaki_rocker
I tried other sim, but still the same...
Hardware is not broken, because he sees the sim, but just can't connect to the network.
@s1m1
No themes availiable that can disable the sim lock...
Any more suggestions?
(thanks for the great help so far!)
Sorry for the double post, but it seems that it could be solved by flashin the stock radio rom.
So if anyone could help me with the stock radio rom, I would be thankful!

Xperia PRO - no network with any SIM, radio brick ? Any fix possible ?

Hi guys,
I had an Xperia Pro updated to ICS 4.0.4 stock, everything was working ok, one morning at work I couldn't get any signal in any part of the building, removed SIM and placed in a different phone, it was getting some signal, back to Xperia Pro, no signal again and when picking manually one of the networks was giving an error message ( like ... network unavailable or check if SIM inserted ), tried activating - deactivating plane mode, still no change, at a certain moment it rebooted by itself, but still no change.
Went home, tried a different SIM, same thing, did a factory reset of the phone, still same error and won't join any network.
Thought, OK it's time to try a different ROM, maybe more luck.
So unlocked bootloader, flashed Cyanogenmod 7.2, install went OK and all, but still the same problem, it won't join any network with any SIM I put in.
What can I try next ? Anyone has any idea ?
Thanks for any suggestion or advice
I think there is a problem with the hardware.

Hmmm ... it was in my pocket while going to work, I later noticed the lack of network signal, but there wasn't any shock or whatever, just regular commute from home to office.
Additional Info: I've remember something that might be relevant: after the reboot in CM7.2 it kept asking for the SIM unlock PIN I think, and it didn't work with the PIN that I knew the SIM had, after a couple tries I clicked "reject" to avoid locking the SIM.
Not sure if it means the phone become locked ?! should I try to unlock it ? It was normally already unlocked before, not sure if it makes any sense what I'm imagining here ...

I used the Central Europe because the file has a slightly newer date.
Had problems with using Flashtool under Windows, probably some driver wasn't correctly installed as my computer was freezing every time I connected in flashmode. Fortunately I have a dual boot and it worked under Ubuntu.
But no luck, still no service after back to ICS.
But I found some other thread on the net that pointed to check mend, and guess what ... doing a report resulted in "Currently blocked - CheckMEND has a record of this item having been blocked by one or more cell phone networks"
Now ... wtf can I do next ?!
Ask your Carrier for help, maybe they now something

Tried a couple of them, either they say they can't do anything ( if I don't have a contract with them ), or one operator told me have no blockage or record of this IMEI.
So ... more and more confused and clueless ...
getting into the SIM Lock menu of the phone ( using the *#*#-whatever-#*#* combination ), every digit is 0, I've read that it means it's "hardlock" but not sure what exactly this means and especially how can it be unlocked ?!

I have the same problem in Portugal but only with one carrier (TMN). Already order a CheckMEND report and "0 reports in my case".
Flashed different ROMS, Kernels, changed baseband and... nothing! Back to stock ICS and still no TMN signal for calls or SMS... I have 3G for internet though...

GT-s7562i - Chinese version help

Hello
I bought this phone in China and was stupid enought to try the firmware update with odim using the version for a s7562. As you can imagine the phone did not work and I had to go back to the original firmware.
The problem is that none of the versions I found on internet works.
Well, they work more or less. The phone starts and can even receive calls. Even Kies is able to reconize and update the firmaware.
Problem is that the buttons dont work and the touch screen is erratic, making it impossible to effectively use the phone.
Is there any idea what the problem could be? Wrong version of firmware or something else? If the problem is the firmware, is there any chance that I can find the right one?
Thank you very much for your help and attention. See you!

If it doesn't work then I am sorry the best way is to take it to samsung (chinese) center. One of my friend did the same mistake, and he flashed it with stock kernel and took to Samsung for repair.
did you try this firmware, what happened?
As I said we flashed the stock and sent it to Samsung. They fixed it under warranty.

Honor 7x volte problem.

I am in a very big problem.
Read carefully if you want to help me.
I rooted my honor 7x for trying the aosp 8.0 oreo rom i found that rom very intresting and very awesome i cant complain as it was its initial stage.
But then i moved to the official firmware of honor 7x but after flashing that from pc many functions got extinct...
Like-no volte
No update app
No system files app
And many other apps
Though i am okay with the app but cant live without volte if there is someone who knows the solution please help me.
Thanx in advance
My phone number- MOD EDIT: I removed your phone number. It's a bad idea to give away your phone number on a public forum with over 8 million members.
Did you flash original firmware? Has your build number changed?

Did you go back to the exact same firmware?
What is the buildnumber before and after, is it the same?
How did you go back to stock?
Because I was in the same position and tried flashing some dts.img etc. image files from some other variant and completely bricked the phone. Had to take it to service centre and replace motherboard. Only then they could flash stock rom.
Yes the build number have changed
I searched the whole internet but i cant find one so flashed some other like same firmware but as i told the features were missing. Can you tell how much they costed you to replace the motherboard...thanx for replying.
Thanqu
Please don't do that!

Oh my God! the world is round! I was in the exact same position yesterday as you are now! Only blunder I did was to flash some more img files and totally brick the phone. You still have hope as you asked for help before trying anything stupid!
You can directly go to service centre and get it flashed without any motherboard replacement. They should be able to power the phone up, that is all. Mine was totally dead.
By the way, mine was under warranty and there were not many technical people at the front desk of the service centre. So I did not have to lie and did not mention unlocked boot loader etc. Just told them I tried to flash a software update of different variant and that bricked the phone (which is true). So they changed the motherboard for free! didn't take a single penny.

Message "SIM-card is changed. Reload the phone".

Hi, everyone. My friend bought Galaxy S9+. And when he inserted sim-card he got next message on the screen: "SIM-card is changed. Reload the phone". After reloading the message remains. We tried my sim-card, and result is the same. Nevertheless, the phone can receive calls. But this message is a pop-up and it makes impossible to work with desktop. I surfed through internet but it seems noone has such a problem. WTF? What a unique error? Is there any solution? Thanks!
I have exactly the same problem with my s9+ in Slovakia.

Usually related to a csc issue. I don't quite know the exacts on a so yet. But the device is not recognizing your sim cards carrier. So to speak. The message means it wants to reboot and apply your carriers settings. And of you carriers csc is not in the device it cannot apply them hence the message over and over after every reboot.

100% agree. If the CSC issue persists, then youll need a PC, the firmware (available on sammobile.com) and a program called Odin. Let us know if the issue persists and we can guide you thru the Odin process if youre unfamiliar. Its actually pretty slick and easy.
