Develop Bugs

[Q] Rogers Arc owners, a few questions:

So I am looking into getting an Arc. See my other thread here (post your opinions on the arc there as well, to help me out
I need to know a few things. I know, on the rogers network, on a branded phone we have to wait for rogers to roll out the updates (ugh). How easy is this phone to debrand/root (not too familiar with the terms).
Basically, I would like to remove all the branded rogers crap and be able to get updates from SE when they are released. How would I do that?

Flash it with another firmware and it will remove all Rogers crap.

Flash it with generic firmware and it will remove all Rogers crap also do an update after flashing to get the latest version 2.3.3

Also dont forget to set your APN to
Name: Rogers Internet
APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn
Proxy: Not Set
Port: Not Set
Username: Not Set
Password: Not Set
Server: Not Set
MMSC: http ://mms.gprs.rogers.com
MMS proxy: 10.128.1.69
MMS port: 80
MCC: 302
MNC: 720
APN Type: Not Set

Awesome! Thanks guys, I hate carrier branding

Can anyone share a link when I can download the Rogers branded firmware for the Xperia Arc (LT15)?
I flashed my phone and now it has developed a hardware problem. Worked fine but the earpiece is not working. I am certain it has nothing to do with the flashing as it was working fince after I had 2.3.3 intalled.
I want to put back all of the Rogers branding before I turn it in for repair.
Thanks in advance

Will reflashing my modem fix my LTE issues?

I just upgraded to JellyBeer 3.35, and I have lost LTE.
If I flashed the ATT Note II Modem, would that possibly fix it?
IF so how do I do this

Try first by flashing the ATT modem
if that does not work, use the following APN
Name: ATT Phone
APN: Phone
MMSC: HTTP://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
APN type: default,mms,supl
APN protocol: IPv4
Enable/disable APN: APN enabled
Bearer: Unspecified
Which is also available in a [ref] post by mjwhirly

Dl the modem found here:

AT&T Straight Talk APN Settings getting only Edge Speeds

Hi all,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 from Verizon.
It is updated to the latest Software from Verizon.
Settings --> About Phone
Model Number : SCH-I535
Android Version : 4.1.2
Baseband Version : I535VRBMB1
Kernel Version : 3.0.31 -861013 [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Feb 14 15:16:58 KST 2013
Build Number : JZO54K.I535VRBMB1
Hardware Version : I535.10
It is rooted. It has superuser installed.
I checked whether the phone is rooted or not with RootChecker and the App showed me that the phone is rooted.
I bought the Titanium Backup Pro and APN Manager PRO from Android Market.
I made APN Manager PRO a System App by going into the Titanium Backup Pro.
Initially I was unable to enter the APN in Home-->Settings-->More Settings ---> Mobile Networks ---> Access Point Names.
But after making the APN Manager Pro a System App using the Titanium Backup Pro, I was able to enter the APN Settings.
The settings I entered are

Can Any one tell me, what did I do wrong?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris.

You would get better Verizon S3 support on a Verizon S3 forum.
You do realize you have a cdma device and that you're trying to operate it on a gsm network, right?

He's probably rooted running a ported ROM....from what I've heard you can only get edge/3G on straight talk.

Chris, the SCH-i535 does support the GSM chipset, but it's designed for the foreign (oversees) GSM networks. Verizon is a greenback vampire! They want people who travel aboard to to use their gsm networks oversees (because cdma is US only). Depending where you travel oversees, varies to 3g/EDGE, that could be because you're ST SIM, is not pulling in the appropriate PRL's that correspond to the GSM chipset the SCHi535 rocks. Hope that helps!
Cheers mate!

[Q] No data (wrong provide after unbricked?)

So basically, I have no data on my phone. I think it has to do with the APN settings. I tried to find what settings I should use, but had no luck.
My specs:
Phone: Galaxy S2 T989
Provider: Koodo
ROM: LIGHTSPEED V4
Here's the story:
I was running LIGHTSPEED V3 and everything was fine. I dirty flashed LIGHTSPEED V4 and the phone ran well for half an hour.
I had to reboot for some reason, the phone would not get pass the load bar on the boot screen. It was bricked.
I unbricked my phone last week. I had to use a T-Mobile ROM to unbrick it, as it is the only thing I found that worked.
After that, I rerooted my phone and re-installed LIGHTSPEED V4. Everything is perfect, except for having no data...
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks!!!

Roger phone - Need MTS APN to work - help

Wrong APN data is inside this Rogers phone for MTS
apns-conf.xml is showing wapgw1.mts.net and mmsport 9201
It is my understanding that it should be using 209.4.229.90 and 9401 based on this article http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/...-g4-phones-t3189469/post62576106#post62576106
How can I fix this?
