It said no firmware because there is no OTA firmware update at the time. Nothing to worry about. Let's see what's on your phone. Can you screenshot a pic of your build number, like this.

Thanks for the response.here are my screen shots I still can't connect to the network. The Sim worked in my other phone right away this one won't connect tho.

Hmm out of service, I'll double check if your IMEI has not been blacklisted. Hopefully guy didn't sell you a stolen or lost phone. If you are willing to flash a custom ROM, could help to.

I haven't rooted yet if I do and flash a custom ROM would that work. The phone has been working for the past 4 days with no problems till today.

Has anyone returned their phone through warranty because of edge/imei issue?

So basically I restored my imei but nothing is still working I told T-Mobile it was overheating then it happened, they went through the whole trial and error process then sent me to tech support. They set me up to do a warranty exchange so I have to send it in, I bought this phone flat out, wondering If they could find anything even after resetting the Tripper and going back to stock? Thanks.

If you look at the picture it clearly says Galaxy S2 (the author put 2 galaxy s3s for some reason).

That picture is not exactly clear, but I do see it now. I was going only off the article. What I said about the devs finding a way around the rooted phone block still stands.

The article states the app will not fully run if you are rooted. Hope a dev can find a work around.

We also need ISIS SIM cards.
I'm in Salt Lake and isis has a list of available retail stores:
http://www.paywithisis.com/where-to-use.xhtml
I'm rooted of course with 4.1.2. This might be worth going back to stock to see if it's any good.
Hopefully I'll have something to update on the 22nd!
my question is, when are the isis ready sims available for the users outside of houston and SLC? do we have to wait until the end of the year to get them?
Hardly seems worth it. I'll wait till this technology gets out of the gimmick stage till I'm in.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Maybe I read one of the articles wrong; but my understanding was if you didn't have a device with NFC, then you would need the new sim card to take advantage of ISIS. I need to see if I can find that article again, but that being said, I would never go back to stock to use ISIS.
What I really want is Google Wallet, and not have my carrier dictate to me which mobile wallet I can use.

You should really ask for your money back.
Yea that sucks, every time I sell/buy a phone I meet the person at a Sprint store to verify the esn. Hopefully you can contact the seller and get your money back, but I doubt it. There are people that will buy it on Craigslist though, just be honest about the esn, there are plenty of non-sprint users that want the phone.

That's for T-Mobile from reading it...
"Step 10. Once that’s done restoring, your phone will reboot. Just give it about a minute as it will reboot. Once rebooted, you can insert your T-Mobile SIM card and start enjoying T-Mobile 3G/4G HSPA+!"
Yup. I see that now. Flimflam said that the hack was in that site. Thats the only one I saw that looked relevant to the post. Maybe I missed it somewhere.

If they're telling you that it doesn't make any sense. What if you stop using T-mobile, lose your phone, ect.? If you don't have access to a T-mobile phone with the Tmo TV app you can't cancel subscription?
They are BSing you. Be assertive and talk to their supervisor, they solve my problem and also issues a credit to me.
