Hi ive done a few phones so im not completely a noob but im trying to switch my evo over to metro. ive followed teh guide. i get stuck when i get to qpst. when i load up the phone in service programming the tables such as m.i.p. and PPP Config are not showing up. just a fwe basic ones such as settinds cdma system roam phone book. my phoens rooted,im lost can someone help me?
oh yah the phone is in diag mode, but heres the thing, the phone doesnt show up as modems in my device manager. i believe it goes under other devices and htc diagnostic usb driver or something like that
Maybe because this rom is a much newer one, Kies isn't recognizing my device, idk
This is a summary of what I used and did, The android installed on my phone is the 4.0.3 version i found online. The video link at the bottom is a video of someone with the same rom. ALSO I HAVE TRIED USING MY SISTER'S GALAXY S2 PHONE AND GOT IT INTO ODIN MODE (her phone has never been rooted) TO SEE IF HER PHONE IS RECOGNIZED AND IT WAS. My phone isn't. So there is nothing wrong with the connection, it's something in my phone causing it not to get recognized
I actually installed this rom onto my samsung galaxy s2, the problem is I can't unroot it. Once I installed it, I am able to get into download/odin mode on my phone but my computer just simply won't recognize my phone at all, i tried two different computers with all the drivers installed. I think my phone is bricked. The phone I used to install it is the Samsung Galaxy SII Epic 4g Touch. Because the version I installed was meant for the i9100 european model, when in Odin Mode it says:
Product Name: GT-i9100
Custom Binary Download: Yes (2 counts)
Current Binary: Custom
I had no problem connecting the phone to the computer when I installed the rom for this. Now It just won't connect. I am trying to install the Stock-EG30 to return my phone to the original factory settings but I'm just stuck. I tried different usb slots and different usb cables. Have you ever encountered a similar problem? Anything can help. I feel like my phone has just become a paperweight.
None of my 3 computers are recognizing my phone in odin mode
i installed this a icecream sandwich testing stage update and i want out, but i cant. tried uninstalling and reinstalling samaung kies, its saying i have it installed already but I still installed it, I dont think its the driver problem because my sister has the same phone and she has never rooted it and when in odin mode, her phone was easily recognized. Right now when i go to about phone in its new format, it is no longer a sph i710 phone (sprint model) apparently, here are the details:
Model Number
GT-i9100
Android version
4.0.1
Baseband Version
Unknown
Kernal Version
3.0.9i9100xxkp1-cl16459
[email protected] #3
Build number
GT-i9100-eng 4.0.1 ITL41D 595 test-keys
Any help please?
the bottom line is i need to get my computer to recognize my device and it just wont. ive tried everything i could research and think of
There is no 4.0.3 Android for the E4GT (Sprint CDMA version)
There was someone else who flashed a european ROM, username nursemm or something like that. They tried a couple of things including installing the european GSM drivers, and it didn't get recognized. She ended up swapping the phone IIRC.
You already realize the issue. If you can get the phone's USB interface to be recgonized by your PC, then you can most likely get it fixed. If you can't then you probably want to get it replaced.
This is what I would do. Connect the phone to a different PC. If you get some USB ding noises, regardless of whether it is recognized ultimately by the PC, then there is some hope. If not, you might need to get it replaced.
If you do figure out a way to get it recognized, please do post an update. You aren't the first to flash a european ROM and get into this mode where USB isn't recognized, so it would help others.
how am i going to swap the phone? With sprint you mean? Wouldn't the warranty be void since i rooted it? Also, is there any program that can read android version 4.0.3 or will there be one coming out?
you could always use a usb jig, or dongle whatever you want to call it, it will put your device into download mode so you can odin away i bought one off ebay for like 2$
Did the same thing... if you find answer that lets the odin pick up or a fix, please email [email protected] or facebook.com/chapman711 thanks
you installed a rom meant for different hardware. the reason odin isnt picking it up is because its bricked. best option is to file insurance claim to get another one, hopefully you got insurance.
even if there is a way to unbrick it... its going to be a hassle and a half to res it.
if your screen comes on with the exclamation point search around for ways around that so you can file a claim. good luck man
if your phone boots to download mode try other drivers/software on pc for the european model
The same thing happened to me. I looked around for a solution but was unable to find one. I ended up just going through the sprint insurance and reported my phone lost and paid $100 for a new one.
I hope you all learn to read the next time around.
Rule number one. Don't flash a Rom that isn't built for your phone

Click to expand...

i think rule 1 should be to make sure you have insurance on phone first lol
I am trying to connect my Sprint L520 to CDMA workshop and seem to be getting no go on it. It is on Android 4.2.2 running stock unrooted ROM. The phone will show up in CDMA as the Samsung Mobile USB Serial Port but when I hit connect it connects but when I put the SPC which is not 6 zeroes (got it from MSL UTILITY) It says phone does not respond. any ideas? I am assuming there is somewhere another Hidden menu that is still disabled which I will need to toggle before I can successfully connect to CDMA. I got it on DM+Modem+ADB plus USB Debugging. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!
Not entirely sure or not of what you're trying to do but I'll say this. Try a different usb port. Make sure there's only one instance of that work shop going. Restart the device and pc. Follow another guide or find out if knox is preventing you.

Hi, Need pointing into right direction. I use my note in the uk and tried flashing different roms, modems etc to get LTE to work. It stopped connecting to my laptop at some point but I continued to flash cutom roms using recovery. I then tried the Odin app (by Chainfire) to flash stock Tmo F1 rom. I had been on NE6 prior to me trying custom roms.
Problem is that the flash failed (when rebooting itself) and is now in a bootloop and I can't get into recovery either. Download mode comes up but it does not connect to the Laptop. I have tried Odin, Kies, reinstalled drivers but no luck. If I connect directly to the laptop the phone does not come up but if I go through a USB hub it recognises something been plugged in but fails to install driver.
Now i know i've messed up but was hoping if there is anyway I could use the sdcard to help boot the phone maybe into recovery or somehow get laptop to recognise the phone???
Any help would be appreciated as I did enjoy the phone and have spent not days but weeks on this problem and the Mrs aint to happy either...thx...
Your current problem is drivers. Get that fixed, I can't help much as I don't run Windows often. Perhaps a boot disc with Linux/Heimdall might help... Lose Kies, it can't help you right now and it might have messed up your drivers, uninstall it and reboot. You need Odin. And not the app, the real one on a PC.
If you have an N900T, the Tmobile NF1 is the one you want. Try the Effortless guide in the general forum for detailed directions and good files to work from. If you can boot to download mode but Odin can't see it, the drivers are messed up on your computer. It's not the phone that has an issue. Try a different computer if you can. The Samsung drivers can be a bit picky. You might need to go to Device Manager and uninstall the drivers while the phone is connected, disconnect and reboot, then try to install the proper ones again.
And if you're in an LTE area, you should connect without any changes. Trying to force it is a bad idea as you probably don't have a network to connect to.
Thanks. Did cross my mind about the driver issue but my S3 connects to the laptop fine. Or do you suggest I give the Linux a try?
Also would the lte bands works here in the uk considering it been a us tmobile?
Tried linux/heimdall but still doesn't connect to my laptop. Don't know what it could be. Any ideas please guys.
UPDATE.....resolved by replacing USB charge port as a pin was damaged/broken.
I have an AT&T Note 3 SM-N900A. I Installed X-Note Rom on it a while ago, but I recently have been having problems charging the phone and was going to take it to an AT&T Device Support Center to fix it. I tried to install the stock firmware N900AUCBMI9 using Mobile Odin, only to see the a boot up screen that says "System Software not authorized by AT&T has been found on your phone . Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest AT&T store for help." I tried to get the phone to connect to Odin on my Windows PC, but the computer will only say USB Device not recognized, and it won't show up in Odin at all. The weird thing is that it says USB device not recognized even while the Note 3 is off. The phone also stays on while in Download Mode when connected to USB with no battery.
I was wondering if there's anything I can do to at least ensure that the people at AT&T can't power up the phone and see this message. I should have just left it on the custom rom, this looks way worse. I'd rather have a hard brick at this point, at least they wouldn't be able to see it was rooted and flashed. I really screwed this up, if I knew I'd be having issues I would have never rooted it. Any help would be extremely appreciated. Thanks for your time.
