No option for lte only

Last phone was an lg nitro and was able to toggle lte only doing *#*#4636#*#* now with this new Note 2 it will not recognize the code. Its a canadian bell
Is it because I need to root it first for it to work..any work around?
Help thanks

Its *#2263# on my gs3. Give that a try.
Not sure if its the same way, but you'll likely have to pull the sim out to get into those settings, put the sim back in, and reboot.

Lock screen pin?

I added a pin to my phone, but it doesn't work every time. Plus I can still open email,camera,etc from the lock screen. How are you guys securing your phones from people accessing your info?
What is a pin?

You have to set a lock time in the menu where you set the lock combo

A pin is a lock code. For example your atm card had a pin number when u use it

Personal Identification Number
So I never got an answer. How come I have pin or pattern lock on but it does not work every single time I turn screen off then Bck on? In must be doing something wrong. Also does encryption setting have anything to do with the lock screen? Why do the instructions say it can take a hour or more to setup? What will it do?

I'm not sure what the problem is but you might get better help if you post this in the Q & A section.
Wrong section. You need to post this in the q &a section. You probably lost your imei number.

Did you check your APN settings?
Just for ****s and giggles also verify that your imei isn't '0"
Settings > about phone > status

Also, is this a new issue? Did you flash/install/add or remove anything?
I was able to fix it by full wiping and re installing JellyBam 7.3

I had this happen a bunch of times with my skyrocket, then my ATT S3, and finally with my friends Verizon S3. I just deleted all the different APN s. Then manually entered the APN info that I saved on my skyrocket or a text file. All is well now. FYI I've always had a tough time figuring out APN settings even with XDA. So I actually got my APN info from an activated phone in an ATT store one day and have been using that since.
Definitely not well documented on these forums that I've seen anyway... Please correct me if I I'm wrong.

I think you have to enter your carrier info manually. I dont think it will detect it. Someone correct me if im wrong.

Sounds like you need to set the apn, but that's just a semi educated guess

Help. Sim stopped working suddenly

I've done nothing at all lately and my phone says no sim all of a sudden, I've tried restarting many times and nothing. Any insight into this issue?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Have you tried taking the sim out and checking for dust? I know in my older phone it would say that. I would pop the sim out, blow on it, and pop it back in. It would then work.
If not, just an idea.
Tried it

Did you try another working sim?
Your Imei number maybe blocked a friend of mine paid for a phone on Craig's list and it was working fine and the a week later the sim stopping working so we called sell provider they said the phone was reported lost or stolen also we tried other sim cards didn't work still that's what made us call
